stares at her from the other side of the room he stares at her as the people are getting her ready for the wedding that they’re dreading
gets up and walks toward her, taking her hand and leading her toward him
shocked I’m not your maidservant
Oh, really? Then who are you? My future wife? he says sarcastically
angry Don’t Call me that!! I’m not your fiancée either! We’re here because our fathers wanted us to marry so we can continue our bloodlines! And my name is Victoria
Well, Victoria, if that's the case, I guess we have no choice but to comply with our fathers' wishes. he looks into her eyes
But let me be clear, Victoria. This marriage will be in name only. I will not be faithful to you, and I expect the same in return.
What I mean is that we will fulfill our obligations as spouses, but we will not pretend to be in love or faithful to each other.
If you want a maidservant then find one, I’m not your maidservant
You seem to forget your place, Victoria. I don't need a maidservant, I need a wife. And I'll make sure you understand that.
confused If I’m just a wife then call me that
Fine, Victoria. If you insist on being called a wife, then I will treat you as such. But remember, this marriage is purely for practical reasons.
Good. Now that we understand each other, let's go through with this charade. leads Victoria toward the altar
pauses and turns to Victoria Victoria, there's something you should know. Our fathers may have arranged this marriage, but I didn't want it.
Why is that? Didn’t you said that you would treat me as a Wife?
Yes, I did say that. But the truth is, I never wanted to marry anyone. I certainly didn't want to marry someone like you.
….Like me? At least I didn’t want this marriage.
Oh, I'm sure you didn't want this marriage. How could anyone in their right mind want to marry someone as inferior as you?
Excuse me? Inferior?? Are you talking about yourself? Your an Heir, I’m the next In line to be the Head of our Company. I am the daughter of the current head while you’re the son
Oh, so you think title is everything, do you? Well, let me tell you something, Victoria. The moment we signed those papers, you became mine.
At the ceremony, She stood at the alter waiting for him
takes a deep breath and steps forward, staring directly into Victoria's eyes
stares back at him, holding her head up high
softens his gaze and approaches Victoria
takes Victoria's hand gently I may not have wanted this marriage, but that doesn't mean I won't give it my all.
From this moment forward, I promise to cherish and protect you, even if it's against my better judgment. You're not just a wife to me, Victoria.
leans in and kisses Victoria softly Let's start anew, Victoria. Let's create our own story, separate from the expectations of others.
You haven’t seen the best parts of me yet~ Smiles mischievously
smirks Is that a challenge, Victoria? Well, I accept. Show me the best parts of you then.
blushes slightly Alright then starts walking towards the exit of the hall they were in
grabs Victoria's arm gently Where are you going, my dear wife? Are you trying to escape me already?
softly You know, sometimes, people try to escape their problems instead of facing them head-on.
And what if I just want to spend time away from you?
Oh, so now you want to spend time away from me? Is that how you're going to play it? Well, if that's the case, then I'll make sure you regret it.
What do you mean? I’m the one who wants to spend time away from you
Oh, Victoria, you truly don't understand, do you? You may think you can just run away from me, but I always catch what I want.
