Rhoda glanced at her husband as he descended down the stairs in his business suit with his suitcase in one hand. He did not have his tie tied, but should she help him out? Yes, she should, but it was not necessary. They were not close to the extent of helping him with something like that. Not even close to the extent of giving him breakfast, lunch or dinner.
They were not even close enough to exchange numbers.
Were they at least close enough to know each other's names?
"Rhoda," her husband called.
"Jeffery," she replied sarcastically.
***
Their marriage was forced. None of them wanted it, so to make things easy, they made it an open marriage not knowing they were only dancing to the tune of cupid.

The Wedding Plan
What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship?

Married to you ✔
Arrange marriage, I hated to even hear about it. But my fate didn't favour me. Born into a conservative family, I had little say in the matter. I was made to meet men chosen for me, one after another. Each time, I found my own ways to be rejected and thankfully, they did reject me. But then he came. He was somehow different from the previous guys that I had met. Still, I tried the same tactic, hoping he too would walk away. Instead, he offered me a deal that was never meant to change anything. "We will marry each other and will be living under a same roof but we won't practically be husband and wife. Neither will I control you nor will you control me. Or let's just say we can be roommates." It was simple. Ridiculous but somehow strangely convincingly practical. Or so I thought. Because that one deal... changed my life forever. **** ~A love after marriage story~ It isn't as simple as you think. They will end up bickering over god knows what kind of stupid things. They will end up having cliche moments and at times you will go all aww on them. Just click the button 'Read' and be a part of their journey.Complete
