章節 5: Engagement
He cleared his throat once again to speak "I am very happy to announce that the engagement will be held today itself."
Jamie's world turned upside down in just one night not giving her a chance to prepare herself for the worst part of her life. Jamie thought 'Why it had to be me, any other girl would have agreed to marry him, why it had to be me.' She prevented her tears to fall faking a smile on her face. If she had some more time she would have thought of a way to get out but she didn't get any time. After the engagement she waited silently in one corner hiding herself for the party to end. Mr. Cullen announced the date of their wedding too and it was to be held on 2nd January after the new year's celebration was over.
Soon the party was over and before anyone could notice Jamie ran towards the car waiting for the Jefferson's to come out so that the could go home. As her parents sat in the car she put the Music on highest volume to avoid talking to them because they had turned her life into a nightmare.
Cary lowered the volume to begin the conversation but before she could say anything Jamie spoke in a very cold voice "I don't want to hear anything, I had had enough for today. I did everything I could for you but the reward that I received today was just not expected. A person leaves her home for enjoying the Christmas eve and returns home engaged to the world's biggest jerk. Do you still have something to say."
"Sweetie we would never have done anything to harm you but they were the once to approach us because they think that you are the only one who can change their son's life. We are really sorry and we were blackmailed that if we don't agree they would use all the wrong means to get you married to him. You know these people don't fear the police and can stoop down to any level to get whatever they want. Please forgive us." Cary spoke apologetically.
Jamie nodded her head without any intention of speaking she turned up the volume of music and the rest of the journey was silent.
When they reached home Jamie rushed to her room lost in her thoughts, she subconsciously changed her clothes removed her makeup and made a bun of her long and straight hair and lied down on the bed trying to sleep already knowing that she will never be able to fall asleep. After a while she opened her laptop inserted the earphones and started listening to music along with writing a story. This was the only way she used to cheer herself up whenever she was sad but today her only best way failed and she was so distracted that she could not write anything but kept thinking of the ways out of her problem. After some time her phone rang startling her out of her thoughts. It was as unknown number and she hesitated before picking it up but when she heard the voice on the ohter end she lost her cool and said in a rude tone which she used for the first time in her life "How did you get my number and moreover how dare you call me" but before she could cut the call he said something which made her vanish into her thoughts once again.
