S A V E E R

I tap my fingers on the steering wheel furiously as I drive my car back to my office. The distance is about 20 minutes but I'm feeling so angry that I drive at full speed and reach the skyscraper in just 10 minutes. I don't care about breaking traffic rules or hitting speed limits. If I get in trouble, I can pay money and get over it.

Not intending to show my rich status or anything but I've never been a big fan of these traffic rules so it feels nice to break them and not face any unsolved issue.

I'm also the only member in my family with anger issues. However, my family isn't scared of me or my tantrums. Instead, they ignore me and continue being dramatic like they are. I've seen some kids ruling the house and their parents obey them. But of course, in most Asian families, the parents always rule. So yes, my parents don't take my tantrums seriously unless it's actually something big. They don't boss me around but for certain things like my marriage, they use force to make me obey.

Even when I made a fuss about it, they didn't listen to me and pressurized me. They threatened me even. They were like, "Oh you're 27 now. You should get married. We will choose a girl for you because your arrogant self will never impress anybody."

Blah fucking blah.

They threatened me that if I didn't get married this time, they'd kick me out of the CEO position and Dad would choose someone else from his company as the CEO.

Like what the actual fuck?

I've worked so hard in building this company. Dad did well but I took it to greater heights. Losing my position means losing all my hardwork. And I can't risk it so I had to say yes for this marriage.

But honestly, I wish I could choose a bride of my own. At least it would've been tolerable. Seeing Arya makes me wonder if she's going to be one of those gold diggers who run after money. I mean she lives with a stranger family who are rich. It wouldn't be surprising to me if it turns out she did it for living a lavish lifestyle. Besides, what if she's too old school and irritates me?

Marriage is no joke. I don't want to marry without thinking properly, then realize my mistake and the get divorced only to marry again. I want everything to happen at once. If I have to marry, I'll only do it only once. I don't want to ruin my life because of marrying someone I don't know and someone who may be a threat to my family.

Did my parents choose the right person for me? What if they got impressed by her beauty and sugar coated words that they failed to check her background properly? Which family does she come from? How was her real family? How was her lifestyle earlier?

Maybe I should get a background check done on her. If she comes out clean, I will marry her. And if something turns out wrong, then I will personally deal with her and break the marriage alliance.
