Billionaire's Secret Wife

Amelia was a secret from birth because she was illegal; she was not included in the family book and was home-schooled all her life. When it was time to get married, her father wanted her to remain a secret from the world. She had promised herself that she was going to take charge of one thing in her life – her marriage. Regardless of how her life had been controlled so far by her father and stepmother, they won’t pick her husband for her. So, when her father had arranged a marriage for her with her friend’s son – one they have never seen, he lived abroad all his life. Again, they wanted a secret marriage. Amelia swore to run away before the marriage. Would she succeed? Mike cared nothing about marriage. But, when it was time to inherit his family business, his father made marriage to his friend’s daughter compulsory. He was ready to obey, so he could disobey later. He would get married to her, inherit his legal property, and divorce the wife – finally gaining his freedom back. But when he saw Amelia, all his plans changed.

The room was struck with silence as they all stared at the jotter without saying a word.  Amelia frowned. Did he know whoever wanted to erase them from earth? Did he find out about their identity? She couldn't take the silence anymore as her head started to ache with the numerous questions she kept filing it with these days. 

 

"Who are they?" She questioned.

 

Her voice seemed to bring the rest out of whatever trance they were in.  Mike nodded along with her. Although, they knew he could barely talk, yet they looked at his mouth for a response. After a minute, Mike pushed the jotter and pen back to him.  "Just tell us whatever you know; we are going to figure the rest out."

 

He started writing again; this time he wrote slowly as he had to take pauses to cough.
