21 Getting Marriage Certificate Part 1

Why did Mom defend Claude so much? She used to dote on me so much, but now, she defended Claude like he is the most favorite son. It is not fair at all, and why did she stand him up so much now? No, it is not right, since when did I become an unfavorable daughter in mom's eyes? I am sure that there is something wrong with Mom's attitude today, but I don't know what it is.

"I am so happy that Mio will become my daughter in law sooner," Dad said with a big grin on his face.

I don't know if it is only me, or Dad, and Mom really changed without me knowing it when. I could only nod my head without complaining about anything. After breakfast, Claude took me to register our marriage. Mom and Dad escorted us to the front door with a big smile, and Claude helped me open the car door and protected my head with his big palm.

'Mom, Dad, do you know who he is? I think he is not Claude Lockheart at all.'

Even though I knew that no one would answer my question, I still wondered why he was so gentle to me. I sat down in a daze, and Claude already drove his car.

"It is a good day, huh," Claude said while he focused on driving without taking a glance at the beautiful girl beside him.

I never sat down in his car before the time I came back home from the hospital. Claude never liked me to touch his things, especially his car, but now, he even helped me open the car door. Yeah, he is not Claude at all, so who is he? This man looks like Claude, but Claude is different, and even his aura changed from before. He used to be an unapproachable man but now, I feel like I can easily approach him like we never had any conflict in the past. But I won't think about this anymore.

"Mio?" Claude didn't hear Mio answer his question at all. Is she angry at him? Claude knew that he made many mistakes towards her, but sometimes he didn't remember all of his wrongdoing. Mio still kept silent even though he called her name.

"Mio?" Claude called her once more, but she was still daydreaming.

"Mio?" Claude felt a little worried about the beautiful girl beside him.

I heard Claude's voice from afar, and then it turned me to reality. I turned my gaze at him without answering his call.

"Mio, are you okay? You seemed to be in a daze," Claude said with a soft voice like cotton.

Hearing his soft voice made me have goosebumps. I suddenly felt cold in hot weather.

'Seriously, who are you?'

"Mio? Are you sick? Do you need me to bring you to the hospital?" Claude asked Mio one more time because she ignored his question.

I only waved my right hand as a sign that I am okay without answering Claude directly.

Claude saw that Mio didn't answer his question directly and only waved her hand on the air, and he felt a little sad with Mio's reaction to him. Mio used to answer his every question, but now, Mio began to keep silent more than before. Mio even looked at him sarcastically, not like her usual gentleness. Claude also realized that Mio was different from the past before Claude found out Mio's biological parents, Mio never treated him coldly.

But now, Mio started to treat him coldly, no it is not an ordinary coldness that he used to do in the past to Mio, but it feels like Mio treats him like air. Mio acts like I am not beside him, and the man beside her is only an insignificant man that has nothing to do in her life. I never thought that I would feel sad when she ignored me, and how were her feelings when I avoided her for years?

It was not long after she started to treat me as air, but I already feel hurt and uncomfortable, like there is something heavy in my heart. I couldn't imagine how unbearable she experienced in the past. Claude finally realized that being in Mio's position is not easy. She could still love him even when he ignored her so much, but when she did the same to him, it is unbearable, and it is hard to breathe. How could she bear all the pain in the past? I am not strong enough to face all of this, even though I was the one who trampled her heart.

"Mio, how about taking a walk after registering for our marriage? You see that the weather is clear," Claude tried to ask her out on a date, but she only glared at him.

I glared at him when he asked me out.

'What do you mean by taking a walk on a sunny day?'

'Are you asking me out?'

"Having a date like an ordinary couple does when they date each other?'

'Since when I become your girlfriend? I never remember you asked me out, and I never remember I accepted you as my boyfriend.'

'Is he okay? or Is he insane?'

'I didn't know you at all, or maybe his soul was swapped with someone else. It sounds reasonable if I can reincarnate in this world, and then maybe there is someone out there who can transmigrate to this world as their second chance in life.'

'Why did I think seriously about him? Whoever lives in his body is not my business, and thinking about an insignificant man only wasted my time and energy.'

"Mio, are you sure you don't want to go out? If you don't want to take a walk with me, how about shopping together? I heard that the unlimited bag would come out today," Claude advised where we would go.

"It is the most popular unlimited handbag around the high circle, and it has your favorite color, and I think it will suit you so much. You will look cute while bringing that cute bag," Claude added. Claude could imagine how cute Mio was when she brought the bag. Without answering him directly, Mio glared intensely at him in displease. Claude dejected in an instant.

"How about we watch a movie together? You used to want to watch a movie with me, but I never listened to you, and we can make a new memory together," Claude said. Claude talked nonstop to Mio, and Mio never answered his questions even once. So Claude suddenly realized that it was hard to face a cold person and ignored his question without changing her expression.

Claude couldn't get angry or sullen when Mio treated him coldly, because he used to be the same way towards her. Claude's heartfelt like being hit by a sharp knife many times. It is unbearable, but he couldn't give up because he didn't want to lose Mio for the second time. It is his karma because he was so cruel towards Mio in the past. Claude won't ever give up on Mio no matter how hard it is like how Mio used to hold him in her heart sincerely.

"Mio, how about...," Before Claude could continue his words, Mio already cut him off.

I couldn't keep silent anymore when he kept asking me out for many reasons. Could he not understand that I don't want to go out with him? You are male lead, and I am only a cannon fodder female that will sail to Lily's ship.

"I don't want to go out because it is hot. I don't want to go shopping with you because it means that I use your precious money, and I am only an adopted daughter, and I am not worth spending the money from Lockheart Family.

Yeah, you are right, as an adopted daughter, I have to know my position, so I will remind you if you forget about my status in the future. Going to a movie is only for a couple, but you and I are not a couple.

And even though we got married, you are not my husband or boyfriend, because our marriage is only on a piece of paper, but in reality, you hate me so much but force yourself to be gentle towards me.

The most important thing, I don't want to spend time with you, because who wants to spend time with her enemy? You hate me right, then act as one," I said nonstop and made me out of breath.

'I don't want to spend my time with you.'

'I don't want to spend my time with you.'

'I don't want to spend my time with you.'

'I don't want to spend my time with you.'

'I don't want to spend my time with you.'

There was a sound in his head when he heard that Mio didn't want to go anywhere if it was with him.
