Chapter 4 60 % Leaving without a fight was nonsense . After everything they had done to me , they expected me to vanish quietly , to accept my fate while Amber basked in the life that should have been mine . The thought of it was almost laughable . I refused to be the girl they discarded . I clenched my fists , my nails biting into my palms as I stared at the document in my hands . A marriage license one that should have bound me to Thomas forever . But the truth was far more sinister . The paper I held was nothing more than an illusion . I was never legally his wife . A slow smile crept onto my lips . If I was never married to Thomas , then I was free . And if I was free , then I had every opportunity to destroy everything they had built . Amber had stolen my life . Now , I would ruin hers . The only way to do that was to strike where it hurt the most her wedding . I picked up my phone , my fingers steady as I dialed Alice . I need your help , I said the moment she answered . What do you need ? A husband . There was silence on the other end before she burst into laughter . Oh , now this is interesting . You sure know how to entertain me . Im serious . Alice hummed in thought . Well , arent you lucky ? The most eligible bachelor in the country just happens to be looking for a wife . My breath caught . Who ? Rozen Blackwood . I stilled . The name alone sent a thrill through my spine . Rozen Blackwood ruthless , powerful , and most importantly , Thomas greatest rival , and so is Scott . It was perfect . Where is he ? I asked . Alice didnt even hesitate . Whiskey Bar . Downtown . The dim glow of the bar cast shadows across the room as I made my way to the VIP section . My heels clicked against the floor , each step echoing with purpose . Rozen Blackwood sat at the center , a whiskey glass in his hand , his dark blue eyes watching me with mild amusement as I approached . He didnt speak as I slid into the seat across from him . 19:21 Fri , 18 Apr 9- I met his gaze . Do you want to marry me ? 60 % His lips curled at the corners , more intrigued than shocked . Arent you married to my enemy ? I leaned back , my expression unreadable . Not legally . Something flickered in his eyes . He rested his elbow on the table , tilting his head . You remember now ? I narrowed my gaze . Interesting that you knew I lost my memories . He chuckled , taking a slow sip of his drink . I keep track of my enemies . The weight of his words settled between us , a silent understanding passing through . Whats your plan ? he asked . I traced the rim of my glass before meeting his gaze . I get revenge . You get a wife to shut your family up . Rozen was silent for a moment , considering my words . Then , to my surprise , he smirked . I like it . The day of the wedding arrived . Not a single call . Not a single message . They didnt check on me . They didnt care . To them , I didnt exist . But they would regret that . I arrived at the venue , stepping out of the limousine dressed in white . The silk of my gown trailed behind me , pristine and elegant , a stark contrast to the chaos I was about to unleash . Gasps filled the air as I walked into the grand hall , my presence sending a ripple of unease through the crowd . Ambers face twisted in rage the moment she saw me . What the hell are you doing here ? she hissed , her voice trembling with fury . Mother turned next , her eyes widening in horror . Why are you here ? I told you , after what you did , we dont want you anywhere near this family ! Thomas stepped forward , his expression dark and unreadable . And why the hell are you wearing a wedding dress ? I met his glare without hesitation , tilting my chin up . Because Im getting married . A stunned silence followed . Then Thomas scoffed , his lips curling into a sneer . Youre ridiculous . Do you even hear yourself ? His eyes scanned me as if searching for any sign of hesitation . Who the hell would marry you when were already married ? I told you not to ruin Ambers wedding ! Amber let out a shrill laugh , folding her arms . Exactly ! No one wants a liar like you . And dont you dare tell me this is some pathetic act of revenge because you seduced my fiancé 19:22 Fri , 18 Apr I changed my mind . Chapter 4 60 % Leaving without a fight was nonsense .
