chapter 6

Eve's POV

"I am married to your father" I told him and he stopped walking and turned to look at me.

"What? What nonsense did you just spew out of your mouth?"?

I sniffed but tears wouldn't stop rolling down my cheek.

"He came to my house and asked for my hand in marriage"

"My Dad will never do such a thing" He fired.

"But I'm saying the truth.."

"Are you stupid? An old man came to ask for your hand in marriage and you gave in just like.. are you dumb? No, you must be. You should be in high school right now!"

He still didn't believe me.

"I swear.. Your Dad promised to take care of my Dad and I if only I get married to him.. Dad has heart issues and the doctor demanded for a lot of money but there's no way we could get that amount.. I can't even further my education. I had no choice" I rushed my words.

He gave me a stern look and didn't say anything for a while.

"I... I'm not a whore... And I didn't know he actually brought me here to..." He cut in sharply.
