Aella stood numb by the door as her heart felt clogged up with the news she had just heard.
Her mother had planned to get her married to the treacherous Lord's son and that too, without her knowledge.
Aside from the fact that getting her knotted to someone behind her back was bad enough, it had to be with one of the worst males she had ever met in her life!
She harbored a deep hatred for Jren ever since the moment he opened his mouth to speak with her and that hate intensified when he spoke vulgarly to her the day he came with his father to take their mansion.
How could her mother even think of doing something as horrible as this? Why? Why would this come to her head in the first place?
Aella began to understand why she was sent to the market the same day a guest came to the house. It must have been to talk about this despicable plan.
