-1 Year Later-(Anastasia's POV)The cold winds flew silently through the city of Milan. It was fall, and the green leaves fell from the trees, and the red, orange and yellow colors took over the wilderness.I sighed as I watch the leaves fall out from the trees as they freely landed on the ground in the busy street of Via Del Corso. Yeah, I am here in Italy with my family for a year. Alice and I changed our surname to Laverde, commanded by grandfather. The whole world is shocked by the sudden news that Antonio Laverde has daughters. Laverne's tried to explain the situation and why we were hidden all these years. Of course, they hide the fact that my father has a mistress and we are the result out of wedlock, to remain the reputation of their name from the public.It's been a year but... His presence is what I've been missing for a year. He declines to face me.He never explains to me his sudden decision.I don't hate him, I never get angry at him, I never... I unlove him.It's sti

I yawn while getting up and glance at the person who entered my room."Ana, it's time for dinner." mom softly said.I lay back on my bed and buried my face in my soft pillow, "I'll pass dinner, mom."After a second, she smacks my ass with her palm causing me to wince in pain, "Mom!""You always skip your meal. Look at you, you are skinny like a barbecue stick."Barbecue stick? She really compared my body to a barbecue stick. I would prefer a Coca-Cola bottle though."I... I'm just tired..." I whined but she slap me for the second time. Oh God! When will she stop treating me like a kid? She just misses Alice as she has no one to throw her scolding to."Stop doing that 'diet' word, Anastasia. It does not make you pretty. You should eat to make yourself beautiful.""I am not trying to be pretty or beautiful or whatever adjective that is.""You need to! You have to get married as soo--

(Anastasia's POV)My mind went blank as I stares at the white folder for almost an hour now. Did not know what to do in this situation to the fact that this is Grandfather wish me to do.Is this what they called Arranged Marriage?I only read this in books and saw this situation in movies as the two people tied the knot without love involved but all because to joined forces with their companies to be more powerful in the business world.Am I experiencing the same situation?I let out a deep sigh while running my fingers through my hair out of frustration as I throw my body on the bed.
