chapter 36

BENJAMIN:

He's hot, charming, good looking and very seductive but arrogant. 

He's the grandson of the most famous and richest man in Africa . Nobody messes with them course they have ranks in high places.

And rose!!

A beautiful, stubborn, troublesome prankster of the Joseph's family.

She's the only daughter of her single dad.

A typical definition of a weird young lady . her mom was late so she faces trauma of being lonely and dejected.

Ben storms out of his parents mansion feeling very perturbed. He knows time's running out for him. If he doesn't find a wife in one month, his inheritance will be passed to his younger cousin, Jerry. 

Jerry:

His just a week younger than Ben, so there is a power struggle between the two cousin.

His strict grandfather had made this rule, he thinks his grandson will be more responsible with a woman by his sides.

Ben can't loose his inheritance, he just can't,so he's forced to marry the girl his parents chose for him, 'ROSE'.

Coincidentally, they were once classmates during high school, back then Ben's friends would bully rose till she cries.

Ben cared less cause he had girls flocking around him,it's just this one girl, ' Rose' that didn't care of his good looks.

Rose has no choice but to agree remembering, the way Ben treated her in the past, she'll deal with him during their little marriage, Ben doesn't know the new rose. He has no idea on what's coming his way and he has to live with it.

The wedding reception had begun. A lively evening party out the garden of my mansion.

Finally, i have gained my long awaited inheritance, on the other hand, married to a woman i barely know. Back at high school, she was just a helpless slim girl but now she's changed, I have to admit she's pretty now, her curves are to die for and that crazy smile of hers, but i still don't like her!

I can't believe she will be the mother of my kids, a girl i once hated!

"Ben" my best friend Paul called sitting on my table with me.

'PAUL'

Isn't she rose? The one we bullied during high school?

He asked staring at rose who was with my mom backing us.

Yes! So what? I asked not liking where he was heading to.

'PAUL'

How can you marry that dork? I mean how can she accept to marry you after all the horrible things you did to her back in high school?

Ben: I never harmed her. It was you and tony that found pleasure in bullying her and besides, am forced to marry her. No feelings attached! I stated , 

He chucked.

"She's so heavy and loaded now..." Paul grins staring at her.

"I think she's going to make your life a living hell...'' Paul chuckled.

I scoffed.

It's gonna be the other way round. I tried to make a move to go to rose but stopped when Sandra showed up from nowhere.

She's one of my beaches! 

She was in a short revealing dress. What's she doing at my wedding??

"Hey Ben" why didn't you tell me about your wedding? She asked in her annoying tiny voice.

"well, it was a last minute plan. i never planned on marrying her" I stated.

She frowned.

"A last minute call wouldn't hurt, would it?" She asked batting her lashes.

" what do you want? I asked nonchalantly.

"I want you Ben. You said that we would be going to Dubai for shopping this weekend only for me to find out this weekend is your wedding!" She yelled at my face.

"Say one more word and you'll regret it" I threatened her and she kept shut.

" leave this place, I'll call you when i need you" I dead panned walking out on her.

I turned a bit and saw her storming out, finding her way among the wealthy guests and entrepreneurs.

That girl took a risk by coming here.

ROSE: Ben's mom just won't let me out of her sight but then a man came and they both left giggling and talking.

Great!

I feel like I would regret this. It's just a wealthy and powerful family.

Suddenly, a lady walked up to me, gosh! Must she decorate her face like a clown!.

"Our new bride, am Debbie, Jerry's wife" she said and we shook hands.

Jerry is bens cousin, right?

I thought the two aren't in good terms.

"Nice to meet you" I said wishing, she could just disappear.

She giggled.

"You're so lucky to be wedded to the CEO of Sanchez companies" she beamed, I could tell she was faking her smile, what does she want from me??

I just looked away.

"Alright, enjoy the party" she said and hurried off. I wanted to drink from the glass of wine in my hand. but i suddenly felt pressed.

No more drinks for me...

I poured the drink on the floor and handed a waiter the empty glass.

I held the hinges of my huge wedding gown on my hands as i left the party ground walking into the mansion. I need to find the restroom...

Debbie:

I walked a little distance from her and stopped . what the hell!! 

She poured the drink on the floor.

Hmm..

How do i get this lady?

Rose:

After an hour or two,am done with today's wedding, as i retired to my room.

I don't understand why the guests are so comfortable at someone's house by 10 o'clock in the night. I kicked my shoes off and then untied my hair wish was braided and curled. I tried to reach for my zipper.

What a huge wedding gown! I kept on trying till i got tired. I went straight to the drawer in Ben's room trying to look for what i would use to take off this gown, then i sighted a scissors,and i picked it ,I started from the chest area to cut the huge dress down.
