Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 12: 12 Am not married to them

Ethan standing at the door flinched at the sound, he knew how violent Davis can be but Jessica had insisted she will met him alone even though he couldn't trust her because she might be working with Desmond. But he is left with no choice then to stand guard looking at his wristwatch anxiously.

Davis tried to maneuver his wheelchair to face the intruder who had come to disturb his peace when a melodious voice made him pause briefly. "Are you really serious Davis Allen? We are getting married and you are just passing across some shit of paper to me for signing? Should I appreciate you or scrunch my nose at your behavior?" She asked calmly with each syllable harsher than the other.

Fully facing her, he was surprised at the figure before him. He glanced at her briefly before meeting her gaze head on "Does my presence matter when your family and Desmond had already entered a deal with my freedom?" The lady before him might be beautiful and gorgeous yet they are part of the reason why he is forced to marry—he wouldn't doubt it if she is one of Desmond spies. He could only feel disgust for her.

Jessica had expected as much, the action was an act of distaste. "And you think I wanted this marriage? Just like you, am forced but that doesn't mean that you won't accord me that simple courtesy Mr. Allen", she concluded, her tone icy as she dropped a fresh marriage registration document on his lap and handed him a pen. "Mr. Allen indent your signature on this document, even though our union is forced— I don't marry in absentia".

"And if I don't?" He asked with a cold tone. Jessica shrugged "Then I have nothing to loose but your uncle will keep sending brides to you, so it's your choice to either make do with me or expect some more" she said indifferently.

Davis clenched his fist in anger while the atmosphere dropped several degrees lower—Jessica calmly walked over to the sofa and sat down waiting patiently for him without uttering another word. It was as though his anger doesn't concern her. He couldn't help wonder her audacity.

"Are you sure you want to marry a man who is in my state? aren't you wronged? I have no title, no legs, more over I have no value and I can't offer you anything?" Davis asked icily.

He didn't care about this marriage, it was never in his plan, it was another man's decision for him because of his situation and he, a broken man can not offer anything to anyone not even the basic protection.
