Chapter 1: Already Married
"You are already married to someone?" a man's voice echoed through the beautifully decorated wedding hall, filled with guests.
Natalie Ford, in her white bridal gown, stood frozen at the altar, her light brown eyes staring in disbelief at the document in her hand—her own marriage certificate, stating that she had been married a year and a half ago.
She looked at the shocked man in black suit standing before her. Ivan Brown, the man she was supposed to marry in the next few minutes. After her mother died, Ivan was the only person who had ever treated her like a human, the one she could rely on while fighting against the pathetic family she had.
"I-Ivan, this document is fake. I never married anyone. I don't even know the man in this document. I have never met him or even heard his name!"
Aiden Handrix was a stranger to her.
Ivan examined the signatures at the bottom of the document.
"But the signature is yours," he said, his gaze furious.
"I don't know who could copy—"
"It's you who signed it. You know it well."
Natalie couldn't deny it; it was indeed her signature, and it didn't look forged.
"But the certificate could still be faked," She protested. Natalie hoped that her future husband would trust her, but before he could respond, someone snatched the document from her hand- her grandmother Sephina Ford, the head of Ford family. She observed the document and snorted.
"You dare call a government certificate fake?"
"Grandma..."
Slap!
