“You always have to go against my family, trying to make them and me look bad!”
His blatant blaming really did it for me.
He was so obsessed with how he and his family looked, that he couldn’t care about my own feelings.
All of this was pointless, it had to be.
“I want a divorce, Liam. It’s time to cancel the wedding.”
“If you still want to go through with this, fine! It has nothing to do with me.”
“Chloe! Enough!”
Liam threatened, before hanging up.
“Don’t forget, this is the day we will announce your position as the CEO of the company.”
“J
“If you don’t show up, I will kick you out of the family, and don’t ever think of coming back!”
Everyone knew that my position and Liam were the two things I wanted
most.
And Liam also knew that I would never give them up, and used it as a way to control me.
But that wasn’t the case anymore.
I ignored what he was saying, and was about to start drafting my resignation, when a team of bodyguards came bursting into my office.
Their leader, one of Liam’s goons, started speaking like he was on a

“Ms. Chloe, the young master has asked us to take you to the wedding, and we would appreciate it if you’d cooperate.”
I glanced at the muscular bunch behind him and sighed.
I guess it would be best to go there, and declare everything in person.
I quickly told my assistant to make arrangements with my job before leaving.
When I arrived, the wedding was well underway.
The venue was beautiful, it was exactly the way I envisioned it to be.
Now the screens were showing Liam and Sarah’s engagement photos.
This wedding looked as if it was always meant for them.
Up on stage, Sarah was dressed in the groom’s tuxedo and kissing Liam, as the crowd was cheering.
Below us, everyone looked happy except for Liam’s grandfather, who had a face like thunder.
Under the bright lights, Liam and I met eyes. And he smirked at me.
I didn’t care anymore, but seeing all of this still gave me a slight tug.
I was lead to a dressing room, where they changed me into a wedding dress.
The event was divided into two sections, the indoor event for the invited guests, and the outdoor for the news reporters.
They were all waiting for the family to announce the news about me.

I changed into the dress and was taken to the outdoor area.
I saw Liam and Sarah on the platform, giving an interview.
“Mr. Levi, Is the woman you are marrying standing next to you?”
“The mysterious and cold CEO, she is even more beautiful than described!”
After that, a chorus of cheers went up, congratulating the ‘beautiful couple.‘
Liam didn’t speak, he just looked at me.
I knew, he was threatening me.

If I followed him, he would finally announce my identity and give me his family’s blessing.
I let out a humorless laugh. It’s time for all of this to end. I don’t want to be CEO anymore.
As I was being pushed to the stage, there was a big gasp in the crowd.
Liam came by me, and whispered.
“I knew you would show up, you were probably scared about losing your position.”
He didn’t even try to explain, even though he had kissed another woman just moments ago.
