The Billionaire's Forced Bride

Pa aah!''" A scorching slap landed on Rachael's cheeks as tears welled up in her eyes.

" How dare you try to disobey me, Rachael!" Mr Wright barked.

"I won't marry him, Dad, I won't!" Rachael screamed aloud and with a breaking voice.

" You have no right to disobey me, Rachael! You will marry him and that is final!" Mr Wright roared, being obstinate about his decision.

" Don't you have any shame? Rachael. You have to listen to your father. He feeds and clothes you, and you dare try to run away a day before the wedding. Rachael's stepmother, Kate chirped in with a look of disdain on her face.

" Esther was supposed to marry him, not me! Esther was betrothed to him. Not me! You found out he is crippled, now you want to push him to me! I won't let you walk over me. I have my rights too!" One thing Rachael wanted was to keep her head up and fight for her rights

" I thought I raised you to be humane, but you are wicked. Rachael! My company is about to be ruined! I trained you for years. You know that this company would be saved once you marry into the Hamilton family!" Mr Wright yelled out once more.

" I won't marry him! You don't care about my future! I can't marry a crippled man. I won't!" Rachael screamed back with reddened eyes.

" You will obey me Rachael and you will not dare go against my decision!" Mr Wright pointed fingers at her furiously.

" I'm not your puppet! Why me? Why not Esther.? You happily listed her in for the marriage. Why are you pushing it to me?!"

" Hear yourself out, Rachael. Esther is a model. Her reputation can't be spoiled by getting married to a crippled man. Rumors would go around and people would call us desperate" Kate kept a straight face while explaining.

A dry chuckle escaped Rachael's lips. " I deserve to marry him because I'm not a model?" She questioned with a sad smile.

" You are the one to save this family Rachael. Not Esther. Esther has a whole life planned ahead of her. We can't destroy it except if you are jealous of her and want everything that belongs to her to become yours because that is what I see in your eyes" Kate responded with an eye roll.

Rachael got so annoyed that she spat on Kate's face causing another scorching slap to land on her face from her father.

Rachael!!!!" He blasted when he slapped her.

Kate felt so disgusted and kept her face like a piece of shit.

" You are a monster!!" Rachael's voice erupted, regardless of the slap she was given by her father.

" I won't marry him! I have a whole life ahead of me too. I won't let you destroy my future! I won't!"

" Shut up Rachael!" Mr Wright ordered in anger.

" I won't! Dad, you have become so heartless! I'm your daughter! You can't do this to me!" Rachael spoke with a sad voice.

" Guards!!!" Mr Wright called out! It didn't take time before they surrounded the living room.

" Take her and lock her up! She is not allowed to leave this house for any reason!" Mr Wright instructed as they echoed "Yes sir!"

They grabbed Rachael's arms like she was a prisoner and started dragging her. Tears crammed her eyes. " Let me go! I won't marry him!" She was still trying to fight, regardless of the situation.

" Take her away! And if she dares escape. I'm going to hold all of you responsible!" Mr Wright instructed more fiercely this time.

" Let go of me!" Rachael screamed, trying to break free from their grip, but their strength was more than hers. They started dragging her no matter how adamant she was.

" I won't marry him. No matter how you force me to!" Rachael had seen she wouldn't be able to get off from their hold, so she continued being rebellious.

They dragged her into her room and locked the door from outside as tears rolled down her eyes. She slumped to the floor and started crying. Her Mom just died a few weeks back because there was no money for surgery. She had been working part-time to meet up with her expenses since she hadn't completed college. She couldn't get a decent job.

Likewise, she moved out previously with her mom, but she moved back in after her mom died. Life was becoming too difficult so went back to her father who had neglected her. Mr Wright took her in with another agenda to marry the Hamilton's crippled son to save his company from going bankrupt. Esther, her step-sister, was initially betrothed to him, but they never knew the son was crippled and the abandoned son of the Hamilton's. When Kate found out, she pressured Mr Wright to use Rachael instead after all she was living with them now.

Two days after they broke the news to Tracheal, she decided to run away with Felix, her boyfriend and start life all over again, but she was caught.

Tears flowed through Rachael's cheeks and cried so much. Why was life so unfair to her? She didn't deserve any of this.

Her father was treating her like trash. She put her head in between her thighs sorrowfully. That minute she thought of running away again but stepped closer to her window to see that guards were standing there as well. She let out a disapproving grunt and then her eyes went over to the knife on the table as she picked it up, different thoughts crowded her mind.

She breathed heavily as she glanced at the knife "I'd rather die with Mom than do what they

want!" She screamed and raised the knife to stab herself.
