Chapter 1
No one would have thought that the Thomas family, the most powerful clan in Preagend, would be fooled like this.
In a large and lavish bedroom, a tall, well-dressed man seized the woman in the magnificent bridal gown by the neck in an outburst of rage.
“You're not Mia! How dare you and your family trick me into marrying you? You must be tired of living already,” he growled. The woman was forced to tilt her head back, but her slender and attractive neck failed to elicit any sympathy from the man. “Let... let go...”
Half of her features were obscured by a white mask, revealing only her strikingly beautiful eyes, which were starting to water now.
“Let... let go...”
Her cheeks flushed, and she sputtered in distress.
The man tossed Millie Brown to the floor with a vicious swing of his arm and stared down at her condescendingly.
Millie felt a brief flutter of anxiety when she realized her mask had come loose on one side. She immediately moved to adjust it. The man then slammed the door open and walked out of the room.
The shocked servant, who had seen the whole affair unfold, rushed to help the woman up from the floor.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Thank you,” Millie replied.
When Millie finally stood up, she rubbed her reddened neck, where she had been gripped so tightly, and blinked her red, confused eyes at the open door.
“Is that man Marcus?”
The servant, who was now straightening Millie's bridal gown, answered, “Yes. He is the master of the house and your husband.”
Millie frowned. She thought that Marcus Thomas was disabled, like the rumors said. Her half-sister, Mia Brown had cried about it, and in order to avoid marrying a disabled man, she practically forced Millie to wed Marcus instead.
As it turned out, Marcus's legs were fully functional, and he could walk with no issues at all.
The corners of Millie’s mouth quirked up into a smirk. Mia would undoubtedly come to regret her decision if she found out that Marcus was not the supposed disabled person but, rather, an attractive man with a model-like physique.
Millie dragged her bridal gown to the bed where she and Marcus were supposed to consummate their marriage and sat on it. She cleared her throat and asked, “Well, isn’t it time for dinner now?”
She had gone the entire day without eating, and now, she was starving.
