"I don't care," Luci grumbled. Her anger was burning. "Even though you have taken everything from me, I will still discontinue this contract. I'm sick of you."
Now she approached the super tall gate in front of her, a gate that looked like it was protecting a magnificent and luxurious house that carried a classic Italian home design. A large and magnificent house that had a dome shape on its roof. Inside the house would be placed various expensive and classy paintings.
Bold colors would be the hallmark of the house's design with smooth marble floors with repetitive and mosaic motifs.
Luci knew and even memorized all the designs by heart. Because if she visited Evan's house to do a role when his grandmother stopped at the house, Manny - Evan's loyal servant - would rant non-stop about the style that the house carried along with its interior and details. Let's say it was like a long lecture for Luci even though she never continued her education in college.
Ah, this was not the time to talk about that. It's time to enter the house and meet the devil that resided in it – Evan.
The automatic gate opened. Luci, who had parked her battered motorbike, welcomed it very well and happily. Now she was screaming and swearing as she walked. Those harsh words she directed only to Evan.
"Evan – Mister! Get out! Damn bastard!"
The security at Evan's house looked flatly at Luci who was already prancing around and getting angry. She even climbed the stairs in front of Evan's house with a blind emotion.
"Evan, get out of here, sir!" spit out Luci still wouldn't stop with her screams. The document in her hands might be crushed by her own emotions.
She's not entirely to blame. A girl who was too tired of the rich people's games would surely explode with rage like Luci, never deny!
She was now banging on the closed white wooden door. But because no answer was heard she chose to barge in. In fact, in front of the door flanked by two guards who wore black frock coats.
Their bodies were strong, sturdy, and muscular. They could easily drag Luci out. And strangely they didn't do anything, as if Luci never existed, and as if the girl's screams were a joke.
She entered the mansion without a hitch.
Luci intended to curse again until she finally stopped her intention because the two guards who were standing in front of the door earlier, had now locked her wrists. Then the two male guards dragged Luci to go somewhere.
"What are you guys doing? Let me go! Why are you guys dragging me all of a sudden? Hah?" thrashed Luci. Yet her petite body paled in comparison to the two burly bodyguards.
At the peak, Luci was brought into a large room in which there were already several people passing by because they were busy. Manny was also in the room.
"What does all this mean? Where's Evan?" Luci snapped at Manny – a middle-aged man with a stiff, disciplined gesture. His chin always looked up as if he were a dancer presenting a performance. He was also wearing a neat suit now.
Manny snatched the file that was in Luci's hand. Then he tore up all the files. Instantly Luci rushed to stop Manny. For her, all the files were very important that could free her from Evan.
But before she could do that the two guards who had dragged her had already pulled her to a chair. Luci had stomped away, which was then followed by the arrival of many people who were currently surrounding her
"Stop! What are you doing! Stop! Stop!" infuriated Luci, trying to escape. But one by one these people – all of whom were women – had restrained Luci's movement so that she could not get up from her chair.
Then the women insisted on forcibly measuring Luci's body even though she continued to struggle non-stop.
It wasn't long before Evan arrived. His stout body with a cold and stern face came closer and crouched right next to Luci, who was currently being held for the sake of measurement. Evan's sleek and black hair looked neat even without being combed.
"Evan, Damn it! What are you doing to me! Tell them to stop!" Luci snarled as her body struggled and her feet stomped into the air.
But Evan paid no heed to her in the slightest. Now his eyes were on Manny. Evan's servant immediately walked over to approach him. His suit was neatly trimmed. Manny looked down in a very organized and obedient body gesture.
"Make sure her wedding dress fits her body. If she's still protesting just get her naked!" Evan briefly then walked away.
Luci started to stutter. She couldn't think straight now. She started to get scared and think about all kinds of things. Fact by the fact she put together one by one.
Manny had torn up her agreement and contract documents. And Luci was dragged here to be measured. Then Evan came and talked about the wedding dress.
No! Impossible!
"Manny, Manny, I beg you, I beg you, what is this? Explain to me!" Luci groaned, feeling the grip of two women in her arms. Her face looked almost crying now.
Luci was still forced to look up so she could look directly at Manny. She was still trying to make Manny feel pity and want to explain everything to Luci. But Manny didn't answer. The middle-aged man was even silent for a long time.
"This is a trap! Shit! What should I do? Help! Anyone, help me!" shouted Luci with her face starting to glaze over in fear. Tears were also running down her cheeks.
Unable to see the commotion any longer, Manny finally spoke up.
"Next week you will officially marry
Master."
BADUM! Lucy snorted! Her crying had stopped which was now replaced by a confused and disapproved face.
How could Evan ever decide something unilaterally like this again? No, this cannot be tolerated. In the agreement, they only underwent a contractual relationship without the frills of marriage, even though many things had happened between them.
Luci also struggled on the chair because she wanted to run away from the house. The women around her scrambled to work together in dealing with Luci's hyperactivity.
Gradually the women were overwhelmed and Luci was barely able to escape. But before that happened Luci had stopped moving and started glaring in fear again after Manny shouted her threat.
"Strip and take her to Master's room if she's still fighting!"
For a moment Luci was silent and obeyed. She had to be obedient now. Then if she had found a way to escape, Luci would do it.
