Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 12: 12 Am not married to them

Ethan standing at the door flinched at the sound, he knew how violent Davis can be but Jessica had insisted she

will met him alone even though he couldn't trust her because she might be working with Desmond. But he is left

with no choice then to stand guard looking at his wristwatch anxiously.

Davis tried to maneuver his wheelchair to face the intruder who had cto disturb his peace when a

melodious voice made him pause briefly. "Are you really serious Davis Allen? We are getting married and you are

just passing across sshit of paper tofor signing? Should | appreciate you or scrunch my nose at your

behavior?" She asked calmly with each syllable harsher than the other.

Fully facing her, he was surprised at the figure before him. He glanced at her briefly before meeting her gaze

head on "Does my presence matter when your family and Desmond had already entered a deal with my

freedom?" The lady before him might be beautiful and gorgeous yet they are part of the reason why he is forced

to marry—he wouldn't doubt it if she is one of Desmond spies. He could only feel disgust for her.

Jessica had expected as much, the action was an act of distaste. "And you think | wanted this marriage? Just like

you, am forced but that doesn't mean that you won't accordthat simple courtesy Mr. Allen", she concluded,

her tone icy as she dropped a fresh marriage registration document on his lap and handed him a pen. "Mr. Allen

indent your signature on this document, even though our union is forced— I don't marry in absentia".

"And if | don't?" He asked with a cold tone. Jessica shrugged "Then | have nothing to loose but your uncle will

keep sending brides to you, so it's your choice to either make do withor expect smore" she said

indifferently.

Davis clenched his fist in anger while the atmosphere dropped several degrees lower—Jessica calmly walked

over to the sofa and sat down waiting patiently for him without uttering another word. It was as though his anger

doesn't concern her. He couldn't help wonder her audacity.

"Are you sure you want to marry a man who is in my state? aren't you wronged? | have no title, no legs, more

over | have no value and | can't offer you anything?" Davis asked icily.

He didn't care about this marriage, it was never in his plan, it was another man's decision for him because of his

situation and he, a broken man can not offer anything to anyone not even the basic protection.

"Do you think you have a choice?"Jessica scoffed looking at him intently.

Davis sighed with resignation in his tone. "You are right, | have no choice", he stated as he calmly picked up the

pen and indented his signature before handing her the papers.

Jessica received the signed documents and signed her column after confirming the documents once again and a

sigh of relief escaped her lips. She had expended much of her strength today and would really want to go lie

down and rest.

She walked to the door, opened it slightly and handed it over to Ethan. Ethan couldn't believe his eyes. It is not

up to twenty minutes she entered the study and managed to get Davis to sign the documents that had taken

him hours to talk to him. He couldn't help but wonder what she might have said to him.

"You can give that to Jeffrey and when he is done, | want the certificate delivered tonot to anyone else", she

said before shutting the door again. Ethan couldn't deny the authority in her voice and he has made up his mind

to follow up the processing and get the certificate back sday.

Jessica re-entered the study taking her seat on the sofa, she needed to have a proper discussion with Davis.

Davis lifted his eyes and met her gaze fixed on him. Curiosity flickered in his eyes as they both engaged in a

silent battle of wits. He didn't expect her to return but it seems there is going to be one more person to trouble

his peaceful existence.

"Why did you cback?" He asked his anger palpable.

"Why | cback? Aren't you making a mistake Mr. Allen?" Jessica chimed.

"A mistake? And please cease from addressingas Mr. Allen am not Desmond", he drawled with the name

rolling off his tongue with bitterness.

He didn't want anything to do with this girl not even for a second but seeing her countenance it is very clear she

will end up being another pain in the ass.

"Sorry about the address but Davis | have no room so | am here in the study until you provide that." She smirked.

Davis rubbed his brow furiously, his face contorting with anger "The butler or Ethan can do that."

Jessica smiled, she knew it is dangerous trying Davis limits but it's necessary to get somethings straight. She had

been forced to marry him and she is ready to divorce at any opportunity but for the tshe is still in this

marriage; she promised to take charge of it.

With a smile playing on her lips, she walked over to his wheelchair, bent to his ear level as whispered "Am not

married to them. Dear husband, it's tto make a trip out of this study to show— my room".

Davis breathe hitched at the closeness as a the signature lavender scent of her body hits him. He quickly

averted his gaze.

Jessica pulled away from him and

Before Davis had the opportunity to object, she had already wheeled him out of the study and clicked the door

shut.

As they entered the hallway, the brightness stung and made him blink severally before his eyes adjusted

properly to light.

Ethan and Jeffrey seated at the dinning room working on the marriage documents were startled at the sight of

wheelchair coming through the hallway as they rose from their seat.

Silently, Davis pointed the path to
