I arrived at my house exhausted with all of the work I had to manage just a span of hours because I had preparations. I collapse down in the sofa from the all fatigue that built up in my body
"That is unlady like of you" a voice scolded me from behind
"Mother I don't want to deal with your proper manner counseling sessions. I'm tired right now so please let me rest" I interrupted her
"You do know there are things you have to worry especially your wedding" she said, I lifted my body and turned my gaze towards her
"I thought you would never care about this. I suppose father have informed you about this arrangement? Let me guess you didn't object at his stupid and rash decisions?" I stared at her with a little of hope in my eyes
"Apparently this is the only way to maintain our status and reputation" she said, with a tone of coldness lacing in her words
There was an inaudible sigh escape from my lips. I stood and walk past her, leading straight to the staircase. I gave one last glance but, all I see in her face. Is a cold stony expression
"I expected more from you but, you leave me with disappointment" I said, then turned my back on her
I clenched the strap of my handbag and continued my way through the stairs. When I arrived at my room a bitter laugh left my lips
I couldn't believe that I have again been delusional. I thought she would at least rebuked at my father's stupid choices. Proving that she still cares about me
The only thing that benefits me in this arranged marriage is that I could be finally free from this toxic household
The Hawkins family had already announced the wedding to the public. I'm still annoyed by the fact I'm going to marry a person I don't know. What annoys me the most is the media that doesn't know how mind their own business
I feel pity for him because he would tolerate me for the rest of his life. Well it's technically not my fault mostly him and his stupid family
I would have been jail if they hear this. They would have probably sue me defamation in the court. I should probably bite my tongue speaking to my so called father in law
Tomorrow would be the start of the wedding preparations that I didn't partake. The day next tomorrow would be the official wedding day
And yet I still haven't met him or whatsoever. I have only see him through a screen or in giant billboards across the city
It wasn't hard to settle on the wedding plans since, the Hawkins family already prepared everything without any of our help
The printing of wedding cards for the guests and other stuff was already handled. They only gave me the results. The full guest list that would attend, the souvenirs that we would distribute and even the full course menu of the buffet
What I noticed is everything is so extravagant. My jaw dropped seeing the prices of everything that they have spent cost millions
I may have been rich but, I'm not the kind of person that would waste my money on such replaceable things
So is this a life of multi-billionare, I'm not surprised that there still not bankrupt of all the money they have spent just for a wedding. That could possibly turn into divorce. I can't believe that I would live with such reckless people

I was now on my wedding gown beside me was the wedding planner that was sent by the Hawkins family l. It wasn't difficult for me to pick a style. No matter what I wear it simply fits perfectly
"Everything suits you so well! But this is my personal favorite so far. What do you think ma'am?" Lauren, the wedding planner chimed while staring at my gown
I stared at the waving gigantic skirt on my feet. I think can manage without help from anyone
I had a tall figure so luckily the gown wasn't dragging me down when I tested walking with my two feet. I don't want to make an embarrassing mistake of tripping down on the aisle
"I don't mind wearing this" I lied, I'm just tired and I wanted to go home
"Well then let's try matching your hair and make up with your gown" She clasped her hands in joy
She seems to be enjoying this as if she was playing with her own human sized Barbie dolls
She then politely excused herself and I changed into my regular clothes. We have already chosen my look for the wedding
I didn't really care and agreed to everything she suggested. I was extremely drained. I would rather work on my office than do this everyday
I had no choice because tomorrow would be the official wedding so, we had to rush everything. I was still not mentally and physically prepared
A female worker walked towards and respectfully gave me a piece of paper. I opened it seeing a note from Dylan Hawkins. My pupils immediately rolled at the back of my head just reading his name.
'I wish I could see you now in a dress but, there is a tradition that a bride and groom is not allowed to see each other. I can't wait for the wedding'
I read every word in the note. I am sure that the notes that he has sent to me is not real. Judging by the paper is computerized and not hand written this isn't a genuine love letter. More of a forced formal greeting
Damn that coward, if he wanted to see me then do it. You don't have to make a stupid note just, to inform me. I can't believe his lying to me, I know his not interested with me or whatsoever.
I think he wouldn't even care if we get married. Why should I even care about his opinion right now.
I sighed, tomorrow would be the wedding.
I don't really have much to lose if I give him my contract
