Everything passed and to Sia the wedding ceremony seemed like a never-ending nightmare which she desperately wanted to wake up from but couldn’t. Standing there at the altar saying I do to the man she hated was not easy, but Emiliano was thrilled to agree to accepting her as his wife, as if that wasn’t the problem she had to kiss him to deal to the marriage and once all that was done she had to smile to the crowd and to the cameras as she was getting dragged about to receive congratulatory words from the guests who were for her parents and of course some important people Carmen and the old lady invited. It was all about happiness but Sia found no delight in the fake display of appreciation when she desperately wanted to slap Emiliano across the face for forcing her to marry him, it was too good to be true but even Vince who hated her at first sight was acting like the best father-in-law of the century and praising her nonstop however sia wasn’t bothered about his behavior towards her because Vince was just like Seth they hated but when they found out what they hated was made of gold they switched colors like a chameleon.
“Come on Sia, cheer up you look stunning”Rhea said as she tried to drag Sia off the stool she was sitting in but Sia shrugged her hand away and played with the glass in her hands.
“I feel bad… I feel terrible… hiccups… my head is hurting”she mumbled careless and when Rhea looked at the bar counter she found multiple empty glasses and knew she had been drinking.
“This is your farewell party, have some fun”Rhea said and pulled out a stool and tried to get the glass from her but Sia tried to bite her hand off. After her glamorous wedding her parents together with Emiliano’s parents had colluded with Angelo who had thrown a private party for her after wedding hence immediately she changed her heavy wedding dress she and Emiliano went to some villa where she found a bunch of people partying like animals, the music was so loud that she felt like her ears would explode, and the so-called guests were obviously Angelo and Emiliano’s good buddies as he introduced them to her earlier and of course they had some good words to say about her and after that, her so-called husband disappeared. And now she was sitting by the bar counter gulping down bitter alcohol to forget her trauma however Rhea was not letting her get some peace at least.
“R… Rhea I’m… I’m a wife now hahaha”she said with laughter as she showed her ring on her finger, it was beautiful with a real diamond and judging by the way it was made, Rhea was certain it cost a few millions since Emiliano was a billionaire.
“A beautiful wife Sia, you married the most handsome man and every woman out there is jealous of you”Rhea coaxed more with a smile, and she was right because she heard countless women at the party voice out their opinion about losing Emiliano forever since now he was married to the woman they never expected.
“That’s the problem Rhea I’m now an old married lady”she faked a cry and Rhea was helpless as people started staring at her but Sia didn’t give a care about them.
“Come on just…” Rhea started but stopped when the phone in her hands vibrated and so that it was from her aunt and with worry.
“Sia, I’ll be back, don’t go anywhere”Rhea said and went somewhere private since it was too noisy inside.
“Hey there beautiful lady”a deep playful voice spoke and Sia who had her head lowered to the counter looked up and frowned.
“And you are?”she asked with narrowed eyes and a man wearing a red suit with his brown hair well trimmed in a nice cut, he had a well-kept beard which made him look slightly handsome but not as handsome as the Casanova and that was the problem.
“Well you can call me Alex, I’m the groom’s business partner”the man made the introductions and Sia arched brow and chose to walk away from the man because his eyes showed something she disliked.
“Whatever”she mumbled and tried to walk but stumbled due to her spinning head and Alex caught her before she fell and ran his hand on her bare back seductively and secretly bit his lower lip.
“Settle down doll, I see you are just alone… don’t worry I’ll keep you company”she whispered to Sia who had the urge to slap him across the face because he was busy flirting with her obviously.
“I’m a married woman”sia chuckled sarcastically and Alex raised his brows at her outburst and lowered close to her ear.
“Then let me take care of you for the night… it seems your husband doesn’t value a precious gem like you”his voice was husky as he smirked because he knew the lady looked helpless and everyone knew he always liked em when they were lonely, he just came and found himself someone to have fun with.
“Bad… bad idea”she said and tried to get away, but Alex grabbed her by the arm and prepared to take her away but suddenly, someone else was holding her hand, feeling irritated at who would dare do such a thing Alex turned back only to see.
“Emiliano”Alex said with amusement however the Casanova didn’t spare him a glance as he pulled Sia close to him, and she heard her whine.
“I see you still have the same habit of taking helpless women huh”Emiliano said with so much disdain and Alex looked at the lady and realized she was none other than Emiliano’s new wife.
“I didn’t know she was your… wife”Alex replied hating Emiliano even more, how did he manage to get such a beautiful woman all to himself.
“Get lost”Emiliano growled in a low tone and Alex left immediately.
“And you, what’s wrong with you… it seems you are causing trouble when it hasn’t been a day since I married you”he said with irritation as he tries to make her stand on her own but Sia pushed him away.
“D… don’t touch me you filthy idiot… I hate you”she said and started walking away from him, bumping into people who were dancing and some chatting. Emiliano cursed a million times as he grabbed her by the shoulder and scooped her in his arms.
“Marrying you was a bad idea”he just left her for half an hour because Angelo had invited some important potential businessmen who wanted to be his partner and since he couldn’t talk to them inside he decided to take them to the garden where it was quiet and when he got back he found his wife half drunk.
“P… put me down… I’m still in my senses okay”she kicked as hard as she could, but Emiliano didn’t do that until they reached outside did he throw her on the cold hard ground and Sia groaned in pain.
“There… happy now”he said and took off his jacket, it felt hot for some reason.
“You! you fool… ouch… I think you… broke a bone here”Sia said in a drowsy voice as she inspected her hip area searching if she had any broken bones and Emiliano narrowed his eyes just as Angelo rushed to them but stopped when he saw Sia wincing in pain.
“Bro what’s this huh?”he said and tried to touch Sia, but Emiliano pushed him away and walked to Sia and picked her up and Emiliano headed to where his car was parked leaving Angelo with mixed emotions, lately Emiliano had been behaving strangely towards him especially each time anything concerned Sia he became violent.
“He left already?”This time Mario came out of nowhere and said bringing Angelo back to his senses.
“Yeah surprisingly”he said that and walked back inside and again Mario was left there wondering what had happened and as much as he saw the only thing he could think of was that Emiliano was feeling insecure history might repeat itself.
“Damn it”Mario cursed and ran his hand in his hair.
