26 That's Great!!

Why do I have to experience this? Why do I have to meet this despicable person? Can I please go back to the past where there's no Neo Kei Yuan present? Where our paths never cross? Where he never give me such troubles?

I'm already here, a part of this mess. I need to clarify things before the situation becomes worst.

I straightened my back and stared at his black mysterious eyes. "Tell me all about this arranged marriage."

"My grandparents initially wanted me to marry Ms. Shen but my parents are not satisfied with the Shens. They think that a marriage alliance should be between the Yuan and Tan family instead. My father talked to your parents for their approval but at that time the Tan and Gu family are also negotiating for a marriage alliance. They then came to a consensus, on your 18th birthday, if you still wouldn't agree to marry the young master of the Gu family then you can marry me. That is if my marriage with the Shen family falls apart." Neo patiently explained.

My mind worked fast enough for me to understand the situation I am in.

"So, if you are still engaged to Ms. Shen by the time I turn 18 yrs. old then I don't need to marry you?" I asked.

"Yes." he said.

"That's great!!! Then Neo honey~... Why not reconcile with Ms. Shen? I can play cupid for you. I may be inexperienced but I am knowledgible enough to know how to capture a young girls heart. Partnered with that handsome look of yours, it will be a sure success!" I happily said to him. It felt like a huge weight have been lifted off my shoulders.

While I am smiling at him, he on the other hand have a mocking expression on. My smile slowly faded and turned into a tight line. Fadjie Bar!! How could I forget what happened earlier!?

He blackmailed me, threatened me and is forcing me to become his fake girlfriend. So he really is serious about breaking his engagement with Miss A. I pinched my left forearm, he actually want me to choose him instead of Vincent!
