Chapter Fifteen
Pearl's POV:
Sitting in my car, all 24 years of my life, flashed in front of my eyes. It felt like just yesterday, I was dreaming of my very own prince charming, who will come and sweep me off my feet. He will look at my eyes and confess his undying love for me.
I got everything I wished for except the only thing that I desired with my whole heart. Everyone thought that my arranged husband was a prince. But they all failed to see behind that handsome face, to see him for the monster he is. In the world's eye, he was the perfect man a girl can wish for but in reality he was anything but that.
When I was first informed that I was engaged to him, I didn't even know what that actually means. I asked my mother about that and her answer only confirmed that fairytales do exist. If only I knew how wrong she was.

Pearl's POV:As I parked my car near the mall where I and Lou supposed to meet, I reached out for my make up kits that I had kept for emergency situation like this, well not like this, like when I was busy and didn't get the chance to get ready at home or... OK I think you got my point. Anyway, moving on from that. I applied some mascara and eyeliner on my eyes and painted my lips with a peach color lipstick.After making sure that I'm ready for showing up in a public place, I came out from my car and checked the time.It had been an hour and half since I left Ryan's place. Yeah, I'm not going to call that place home. Because a home is a place where your heart lives, where you know that there will be someone waiting for you to return. Which that place is clearly not.Oh, I got carried on. I seemed to do that often.Okay, a

Ryan's POV:Time was passing like the tides of ocean as I sat in my cabin, contemplating what to do about the 'Brett' situation. The meeting had finished a long time ago and I came here right after that. Since then I never left the cabin and somehow my staffs got the message to not disturb me with anything.Though no one interrupted me and my thoughts but that didn't mean I was not disturbed. Thinking my wife was out there, hanging out with him was enough to make me restless. I didn't know how to react on that and no one was there to tell me what should I do.And to add on that, Natalie's newly found attitude was just what I needed at the moment. I highly think, you should note the sarcasm here. Well, whatever, she could do anything she want. Pearl was on my priority list for the day and I had to make sure that he didn't
My Arranged Husband Chapter Eighteen
Pearl's POV:We were all sitting in the dining when the bell went off. We looked at each other equally confused that who can be there at that time. But we didn't have to wait long as the person in question showed up with all his glory in the next minute."What are you doing here?" I nothing but snapped at him as I could feel my mother's disapproving eyes on me."I'm here to see if you were here, sweetheart. I know you love your freedom but you should at least inform me of your whereabouts. I tend to be worried." He said with such innocent concern that if I didn't know him better I would have believed him."You don't have to know everything about me." I said glaring at him."Pearl, what kind of behavior is that? Poor guy is concerned about you and you are talking to him like that. I thought I raised you better." My mother s

Pearl's POV:Have you ever had that moment where you want to slit your husband's throat and watch him suffer? Never? Well, may be I'm an exception because I'm having that moment.Ryan entered the room as I paced there thinking of thousand ways to kill him without leaving any trail."What was all that about?" I snapped at him."What was I supposed to do? Tell them that you left because your husband kissed you?" He said in defense. Like that was going to help him."What about you tell them that you called me a slut and force yourself on me and so I left you?" I said the words while poking on his chest."That was a mistake.""Which part was a mistake? Huh? The kissing part or the calling me names part? Because the latter wasn't. You did it repeatedly." I pointed out."If you

Ryan's POV:Schooling my feature in somewhat normal expression I entered the dining room and took my seat as others looked at me expectantly and I just shrugged in response. Pearl came a few minutes after me and took her seat like me as the room filled with awkward silence."So what did you decide? Are you going on your honeymoon or not?" Pearl's mother asked, breaking the silence."Yes.""No."We both answered at the same time and well as you can guess, the latter came from Pearl."What do you mean by that?" This time it was Brett and he looked really curious.I didn't reply to him. He and his curiosity can go to hell."We are not going." Pearl said calmly."But-"'"No but Ryan. I have some works to finish." She said giving me a pointed l
My Arranged Husband Chapter Twenty One
Ryan's POV:I was dumbfounded as I saw Pearl going out of the living room. It felt like deja vu, only the table had turned.I seriously didn't know how to react at that. Was I wrong all this time or was she lying? A person who was a cheater can also be liar, right? But why did it feel like she was telling the truth? Ugh, so frustrating.I was thinking of all the ifs and buts when I felt my phone beeping to let me know that I got a message. The sender's name made me break out in a laugh which was dipped with sarcasm.Natalie : babe, we never went to the date. What about this Saturday? I felt like ripping all my hair out of their roots. On one hand, my wife had locked herself in the bedroom and on other, my girlfriend was planning a romantic getaway. My life really sucks.Well you brought it to yourself, you cheating asshole.
My Arranged Husband Chapter Twenty Two
Pearl's POV:Last few days passed in blur. Well it was expected with the amount of work I had to do.With our mutual decision, Ryan and I had reached a neutral position. So, I could say that we're doing well, at least our conversations were way more civilized than before.So many things happened in few days that I could hardly count. Like Lou and Alexander became an official couple much to my amazement. I didn't know they would come to that point so quickly. Because Lou was that kind of person who used to not trust anyone with her heart. So, you can guess why I should be surprised. Anyway, after their revelation, two persons' reaction surprised me the most. 1. Ryan started joking with Alex like they were best buddies and 2. Armin became a brooding child which is wearing off quickly.And to top it all, my show was in two
My Arranged Husband Chapter Twenty Three
Ryan's POV:I was so caught up at the moment when Pearl asked me why Natalie called me by my name, that for a second, I forgot to breath."I... I don't like formalities. So I told her to call me by my name. Do you have a problem with that?" I snapped at her. I knew there was nothing to get hyper but I was acting on defence, so you can't really blame me."Chill, Ryan. I was just genuinely curious and I can ask you more questions right now but I won't because we will be late for the party." She said and linked her hands with Natalie. "Come on Nate, we will get going."She dragged Natalie to the car and opened the passenger's side door for her.I looked at Pearl, speechless as I couldn't figure out why she was acting like this. Does she know about us? How can she? And if she knew then why will she befriend with Natalie?God help me.
