Sold To The Wicked Him

Tik tak tik tak

Letting out a sigh, I wonder if there are things that I must do. Ever since that day he left me on his office, things been complicated. I need to finish those files he dump to me unless I have no liking of eating for the day.

Standing up, I confirmed to the butler that I already finish my job. It was even harder than the last time. It was as if, as time passes by, the number of papers I am attending to are increasing with no stop.

“Please enjoy your meal”

As a slave… that was bought by Biden, it wasn’t something that I am complain to. He bought me which is why he must have his reason to use me whatsoever he likes. But… still… I didn’t know that Aunt estrella can do such thing…

“It seems like you have no appetite”

It was him. None other than Aiden. The man with a cruel heart. The man who have no idea about the things that are happening to the people around him.

He is self centered and didn’t care any bit to others as if he just saw those people as a mere tool that he shall not heed no bother to take care of.

Not speaking, I continued eating the meal that was prepared.

So the reason why it was tasty today was because he is also going to dine with me. I should have known it sooner so I finish my food early.

“I just want to remind you that tomorrow, you will be joining me in a gathering. Suit yourself and don’t taint my name. It would also be better if you would not talk to anyone so they would not have any suspicions”

“Yes”

That was it. That was how my life continued. It was as if… things wouldn’t be going in the way that would treat me better. Maybe… this was my punishment. For not being able to keep my grandmother alive…

The day that he told came. It was early in the morning and all the maids are doing lots of things preparing me. I just sat there and let them do what they need.

Everyone was being careful. It was as if, their lives depends on the result they would see.

There, it was finally done.

“She looks beau-”

Not being able to finish her words, the door burst open as if someone who did that have no patience left to wait.

“Not done yet?”

Looking at me, he verified that they already finish their job.

“At least you looks like a real human being”

Maybe that was a compliment coming from Aiden.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I do look… nice. They really did a great job pulling this off.

“Hurry, no one even dares make me wait any bit longer. If you are done, go move already”

As soon as we arrive at the place, everything looks dazzling. All the decorations on the outside of the place seems to be made up of materials that are not cheap. Even the people that I can see outside this car wear dresses and suits that shines as if they are shouting how much price they’ve cost.

“To all of them, you are my wife. Do your best in it”

“Yes”

I have no idea of why am I acting his way ever since that time. It was as if, that event made me realize things. Hah… I should just do just as what he have said. It is not as if I would want to die soon. I still want to live… since that is what I promised…

“I hereby present, Mr. & Mrs. Lazarus! Shining like the dazzling stars above, just as the rumor said, the ideal image of a couple”

It seems like their words held exaggeration in that. Dazzling stars above? Rumor about what? Us being a good couple?

I had no time to ask him of what those things mean but it is not as if I would have the courage to ask him about that

Giving me his hand, he guides me as we walk in the red carpet in front of the eyes of many people and media.

“It wouldn’t be bad if you smile to let them know you are happy in this occasion”

He simply mumbled as he realize that what I am doing would make suspicions.

I forgot about that. Clinging may hand it his in a manner that does not look so weird, I simply let them feel like I am such a genuine and loving wife who find it a little embarrassing to be seen together with my husband.

Smiling at them, everyone is still looking at as as they have no other person to look at.

Why does this place of red carpet makes a long way in order to get inside? I had no idea that it would be this long…

“You two finally came. We have been waiting for the two of you”

It was Elton who greeted us. It seems like he arrived first. Together with him was Lea. She wave at me.

Hah, now it makes me be reminded how we met. She do looks so scary back then… I almost thought that I would die in an instant

‘She was together with sir Elton. I have heard that she is the wife of Sir Aiden but why is she always with him?’

Due to the fact that I was constantly being asked to do many things as if I was some new recruit that must do things as those.

Still, it is not as if I can disobey. If he told me to do so, what left for me to do is do just as what he said.

‘Thank you for going with me again

‘No worries, it would be bad if you get lost again

Elton being friendly to me is something that I am thankful to but… the fact that he was being kind to me makes me be worried…

For there have been a words circulating about him being associated with me but even so… this Aiden… he seems to not care about those words.

‘You… so it was true. You find a girl you are interested in which is why you are always here in Aiden’s place. Elton… I didn’t know you are like that…’

‘Aiya? Why are you here and what are you talking about?’

A girl came. She was beautiful. Even her clothes suites her well but… just like how I can clearly state the fact that she was a beauty, I can also clearly see how her eyes looks hurt.
