Emelia met his compelling gaze and asked him in return, "Wasn't you unwilling either? Why did you marry me in the end?"

Julian's expression paused for a moment, then he added, "Grandpa forced me to."

Emelia lowered her eyes and said faintly, "So did I. My father and my brother forced me."

He didn’t know why, but after hearing her answer, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

He stared at her quiet and beautiful face, her lowered eyes and long lashes, and he blurted out, "So all that you claim to love me is a lie?"

Emelia smiled at the words with hooked lips.

Julian probably never knew that she and he were university alumni.

He was a popular senior, a well-known alumnus and a successful businessman.

He was invited to speak at the school anniversary one year. He was a handsome, elegant man who easily caught the eyes of girls and made them fall in love with him.

Emelia was one of them, and she sat in the auditorium looking up at the radiant man.

In that year, there was a part of the school anniversary where Julian presented awards to outstanding students, and she was one of the students who received the award.

The man's fingertips inadvertently brushed her hand when he handed her the trophy, and at that moment her heart thumped so fast. She completely fell for him.

But no matter how much she liked him, Emelia knew that Julian was way out of her league, so she only hid those feelings in the bottom of her heart.

When she was about to graduate in her senior year, she was drugged into a man's bed by her father and brother, and only after she slept with him did she discover that the man was actually Julian.

It was the man who she had longed for, the man she adored, the man she had dreamed of marrying.
