Chapter 44

Jennie

The reverend stood at the end of the archway and my spouse-to-be was waiting there for me, dressed in a tailored grey tux. The bastard was so handsome; one would even think that they were lucky to be getting married to him until they discovered the kind of evil that lurked behind those uncanny green eyes.

I walked slowly down the path, with my throat forming into a lump, and my mind shutting down. I didn't want to do this. And yet I was forced to do absolutely nothing to stop it. I had no phone to contact any authorities. No way to escape this place. I had nothing. I was completely at Nichkhun's mercy, but I needed to remember the end goal.

I wanted out.

I had to marry him and then stab him in the back.

That was the only way.

Another thought just kept creeping into my mind, more like an image of my wedding night. It was the horrific imagery of getting naked with Nichkhun and consummating the marriage with him. I just couldn't. Maybe I'd just lie down and let him do as he pleased.

Or I could close my eyes and imagine that it was Lisa.

The thought was disturbing, to say the very least.

When I stopped walking and stopped midway, the anxiety was taking over again. Bambam looked at me and pressed my hand in reassurance, as if he understood what I was thinking about. I could tell that he pitied me. He had to literally push me forward to walk ahead. With every step that I took forward, I wanted to take two steps back.

We halted right beside the groom. Nichkhun flashed me a dazzling smile, one that would have charmed the panties off any other woman who wasn't aware of his usual shenanigans.

Bambam kissed my cheek and Nichkhun kissed the other cheek as he whispered in my ear, "You look gorgeous, Jen." and he stepped aside.

Lisa who was standing there beside him, came to stand next to me. She was hidden from my view all along because Nichkhun had been blocking her up until now. Bambam chuckled as he placed my small hand in Lisa's larger one.

I gasped when I noticed what had happened.

Relief hit me so hard, my knees could have buckled. I would have died right there if it wasn't for Lisa holding onto my hand.

Tears started spilling out of my eyes. Tears of sheer and utter relief.

I wasn't being married off to Nichkhun.

I was going to get married to Lisa.
