Arissa took in a deep breath. If she heard right, Mrs. Wyatt was technically saying she could never have a normal married life with Nicklaus until the contract expired.
Her expression turned sour, she felt like to faint as she felt strength leaving her body from the pain her heart felt.
Signing the contract that afternoon, she had been confident that she would conquer all of these easily and leave the country with her sisters to where no one would find them but now, it seems that bringing that plan to reality was not an easy feat.
She felt stupid but Arissa knew she tried. She did everything she possibly could to stay away from him.
From that night she first knew him, he made her blush, giggle, daydream, and feel like a woman when with a man in a way no one ever did. She expected never to meet the first man she felt an emotional connection with within just a night but who warned her that that man would become her husband.
