Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Wife

The sun rays dared to peek inside the room with the bold intention of narrating Elle about the morning. The woman rolled over the bed within the silk sheets, while silence hovered over the gloomy room. If the saddened silence could voice its grief then the whole room would have been resonating with cries and sniffles of Elle and her unlucky fate. The woman groaned and changed her side as she flinched slightly while being asleep, the bright light had been disturbing her and Elle slowly opened her eyes. ‘Ugh! It’s morning already.’ She groaned within her breath as her hazel eyes began to stare at the window, the thin white curtains separated a little due to the air coming inside. Elle felt a deep despair inside her heart as her mind wandered again towards the thought which upset her yesterday. She wanted to eat yesterday night happily after ruining the castle but could not do so, since the statements passed by the ladies from the kitchen killed her all hopes and slim ‘sympathy’ towards Alessandro. ‘Another day now in the same house, with the same people.’ She covered her eyes with right elbow and wanted to go back to sleep again. The lady inhaled deeply as the thoughts of yesterday resonated in her head once again, Elle did not know that she would be trapped like this among such judgemental people. She sat up on the bed and lowered her head, while raking through her hair and yawning out of utmost despair and helpless feeling. ‘I hope those bitches would not disturb me openly.’ She could not help but to speak to herself about the incident which left her broken and disheartened. Elle looked around and stared at every possible thing which came into her vision, she suspected the reigning calmness present in the room. It was evident that the silence in the room was not a good omen since the villa had never been so silent unless it was some arriving chaos. Elle removed the duvet as her legs dangled from the bed, she had been wearing shorts and a loose t-shirt instead of a night gown. The woman had long left those fancy attires, since the day when Alessandro betrayed her for the first time. She believed that those attires should only be worn in two conditions. One is the lure and incite men and the other for desiring to feel the beauty of those silken clothes. But now Elle had none among those two reasons to wear those fancy night gowns. The woman took small steps towards the window as the cool breeze touched her skin and brushed the beautiful lady’s chocolate wavy hair. Elle parted those thin curtains as she stared outside and an endlessly stretched ocean arrived in her sight, the heavenly beauty of the sunlight falling on the water reminded her that no matter how deepest the griefs are the ray of hope will always and somehow follow and pave its path towards the depth. She sighed and deeply inhaled upon seeing the hopeful sight in front of her, Elle placed her both hands on her navel and stretched a bit to relieve all the stress. It was the moment when a knock at the door snagged her attention and she turned towards the room, Elle peeked from the balcony and shouted to permit the person inside. ‘It must be someone calling me for breakfast.’ Elle assumed that since it had been like the certain norm since day one, but instead another trouble was about to arrive. Those two old maids from yesterday strode inside with their chin ups and examined the room as they dawdled inside wearing proud smirks on their faces. “Look what have you done to this room, and this whole place.” The older one, Mary spoke while mocking Elle and her recent decision of renovating the whole castle. They both knew that master Alessandro would definitely get mad at Elle for doing so, hence they just needed to fuel the whole situation. Mary walked towards the shelf where a few decorative items were placed and slipped her finger on the marble to indicate she had been checking for dust. “What are you two doing here?” Elle was unable to comprehend the reason behind their sudden change in the behaviour, just yesterday they all had been fearing her and did not dare to speak a word… but now, the very next day they all had been behaving differently. She knew something was wrong, perhaps Elle could assume what might have happened but she did not want to say it or even accept the seemingly fact. Mary turned towards her and dusted off her hands with a mocking gesture, she took a step forward which was a bold move coming from a mere maid. But that certain act made Elle realize something, what she had assumed was her accurate hunch and that was the plan of the mastermind. “Oh! Don’t you dare talk to me like that, you little cunt!” Mar gritted her teeth and crossed her arms, while studying Elle’s facial gestures. She expected the usual reaction which she had witnessed from all the previous girls earlier. Elle on the other hand grasped what was happening when he younger maid who went out for a few moments and then came back with a broom and a water bucket having a mop in it. “Master Alessandro told us how you tried to lure him, and then blackmailed him to marry you.” Elle did not know that Alessandro could do something like that, she expected him to attack from the front but the man chose a sneaky way to torture her. Ezra, the younger maid stood silently but Elle could see the grin on her face. Meanwhile Mary resumed her speech after seeing no reaction from Elle, since the lady did not want to seem oppressed by her bullshit. Elle knew they had been waiting for her to speak, but she wanted to mold their own game into her benefit. Now master has instructed us to show you your worth, hurry up!” Mary pointed out towards the cleaning stuff and averted her face to see an expected mad expression from Elle, however her hopes went down the drain when she saw nothing but a stern face. It drove Mary mad that she yelled again with an authoritatively imposing voice. “Didn’t you hear? Hurry up and get to work!”
