Chapter 44: Divorce
"I want all of you to meet my soon to be wife, Farrah Evans."
His brazen announcement made me seek for air. He kissed my cheeks and arched his brow at me before glancing back at the crowd who's now clapping their hands. His grandfather is in front, just beside our table with some businessmen in his age. A wide smile is plastered at his wrinkled face as he whispers something at the man beside him while pointing at me.
Our eyes met, and the only thing I could do is to force myself to smile at him like everything is fine and I know what is happening. Truth is, I don't have a single idea and the brute looks like he enjoyed my priceless reaction earlier!
As soon as we got out of the stage, a lot of businessmen and women went to greet us, and Uno keeps on shaking the hands of the people. And for about half an hour, I just gritted my teeth while my brows are furrowed, not minding if the people will notice that I am pissed.
When I noticed that he is not as busy a

I should be grateful right now because it's a Saturday and there will be no work to do but I can't celebrate right now because it's the day where I will let go of my freedom and will start to have a boring life with Uno Saldivar as my husband, and me, as his wife.I don't get him, alright. The last time we met, he acted so strangely. Why did he suddenly left when he found out that I want to get married in a different country? I just want to be eligible for the divorce! Who the heck will tie herself in a life she doesn't want for a long time, right?I can't let go of the possibilities. I know I am just doing this to save the business, pay for my dad's debt, and get him out of the bars. Uno, on the other hand only wants to get his inheritance. A divorce after getting everything we want is just fine, right?Getting married in the Philippines means we will have difficulty in separating. We don't have a divorce in our country and there are only two ways. One is to fi
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 46: Bloodshot
"You really didn't ask him to go even in Ilocos, Farrah?!" Vanessa, in her usual stagy voice and horrible face, yelled as she stopped folding my clothes.Yesterday, when Uno and I signed the papers, I asked him to drive me to my unit and let me stay even just for that night. Just a night spent alone with my unit before I will live with him. I still can't accept that the life I didn't imagine will now start and I have to endure the days of being with him in one roof, but I no longer have a choice.After that small event of us, he didn't talk nor touch me again. The atmosphere was heavy and eerie silence is creeping me out, and I just silently thank him that he nodded and drop me in front of the tower, but he told me that he will fetch me later in the afternoon so here I am with Vanessa and Dylan, fixing my things and put it inside my luggage. But Dylan is still not here. He told me he'll be late but will go here once he is done on the thing he is doing."He asked me if I want to go some
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 47: Perplexed
Uno's raging eyes caught mine, his hand wrapped around my wrist tightly and pull me off the bed, his breathing still fast and his face hard."Uno it's not what you think–""Shut up, Farrah. Let's go home," his eyes darted to Dylan. The man is still sitting at the floor and his hand wiping away the blood at the side of his lips. He forcibly pulls me to and started walking."Uno wait–you should apologize to Dylan he's hurt!" I glanced at the man behind my shoulders, but my furious husband didn't even try to cock his head even for a bit and tightened his hold more, enough for me to feel a sudden pain at his grasp.I flinched. “Uno, can you please–""Shut up, Farrah! We are going home!" His voice told me that his patient was cut short. I shut my eyes close, his voice was booming as hard as the thumping of my heart and I hate to admit it but...he's scary. And I don't want him angry.I know how gentle this man is when it co
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 48: Losing My Mind
I really don't know what is wrong with me that every move of Uno etches on my mind. First, he kissed me and became clingy. And then after that, he went home drunk and once again, kissed me and touched me to some part of my body. And then this morning, I didn't even see even a sign of him in the whole house.I am alone! And it's still 6 am! I pushed my hair back using my fingers and lazily strutted the way to our kitchen. It was empty, but there is a food placed in the middle of the dining table with a large steel lid. I sneered and opened the fridge to get myself a box of fresh milk and sat on a high chair.The brute didn't let me see him even for a second, huh? He didn't even let me ask why he is drunk last night or why did he do it.I shook my head decided to fix myself and go to work.Pacifica is fine, some investors are now hesitating if they will still pull out their shares or will stay because the company will soon merge with Saldivar
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 49: Sleep with You
"Uno what are you saying? You're just...drunk." I gulped. His head is still on my stomach, and his arms wrapped around my waist.I know this is just the effect of alcohol, and it means nothing. But something in my heart felt so happy that he said something like that. To know that my meetups with Dylan made him upset made my heart flutter in joy and I don't know but...I kind of want to meet Dylan again and again just to hear him beg. I want to hear it several times that it would never leave my mind.But this whole thing is fake. We are doing this for money. Nothing more and nothing less. I touched his arms and tried to remove it from my waist but he just groaned and hugged me tighter."Come on, let's sleep. The clock is about to hit midnight and we still have to work," I touched his hair and played with it."No...you will just meet that idiot again!" His muffled voice and his position right now made me chuckle. Why acting like a baby when he's drunk?
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 50: Who Cares if I Decide on My Own?
I groaned when I felt the sun rays hitting my face. It was great, alright. They said the sun rays from 6 am to 8 am is healthy for the skin but right now, when I feel so tired and sleepy, I am not sure."What the fuck Uno, aren't you tired?!" I ranted as I hid my face under the pillow and whirl around to face the wall, resulting for my back to be hit by the annoying sun rays.I heard some steps walking closer to where I was and started to pull the thick blanket off my body. I groaned more."The heck, if you want to wake up then do it alone! I still want to sleep! I'm dead tired!"I slept late last night, and even though I slept soundly, I still need a lot of hours to gain my energy back. And this idiot has the guts to disturb me when he is the reason why I can't pull myself off this freaking bed?"Why are you tired, sis?" The other side of the bed sank as I heard a familiar stagy voice. I opened my eyes and immediately pulls myself and glanced at h
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 51: Annulment Papers
The moment I stepped inside Dylan's nightclub, I know everything would be hype. The flicking mixture of red, blue, green, and yellow lights usually makes my eyes get hurt but tonight, the dark, crowded room complimented it that it looks otherwise. It was enticing, like they want you to feel the excitement and make you want to drink your ass out, get all drunk, and dance with the great mixture of an expert Dj.The smell of vape smoke, cigars, and different kinds of alcohol invaded my nose as I step inside the room. It's still 7 pm but the crowd is already wild. Makes me remember my good old days, huh?Some of my former college classmates are here, some from the business world, and some are afams.If you wanna pick a rich man, attending Dylan's party is a privilege. This year is different. For the past years, we celebrated his birthday either on a trip to somewhere outside or inside our country, or just close the bar with the three of us getting drunk at his big c
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 52: Go Out With Me?
The most important thing that I did today? I asked our family lawyer about the annulment papers and told him to get me one. Months from now, Uno will probably get everything that he wants and Pacifica will gain enough investors. He also said that he already wired the Million dollars in my bank and the only thing that I need to do is to sell my properties and expensive bags to finally pay my Dad's debts and brought him out of the dirty cage.He had been imprisoned for...I think about nine months? And I couldn't afford to let him spend more months there. I know he is a bad husband but he isn't a bad Dad. He didn't let me get hungry nor sleep in a cold, uncomfortable bed and I believe, he deserves the best life he could have even after all the stupidity he did.My original doesn't include Uno. Remembering last night's fight is a pain in the ass. I can't continue living with him if this is the case, and everyone knows I like how freedom can be so entertaining that it
