Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

   Andy creased her brows and then they pointed at Selina who is sipping on her champagne and glaring at the twins. Then Andy scoffed and patted the twin\'s head. They are just adorable even they are grown up attractive and playboy. 

"Come on, she\'s practically trying to kill us," Steven told. "How can you let your handsome cousins get tortured like this?!" 

​​

"Yeah!" Stanley agreed. 

"Shut up!" She smacked them away. 

   The fake Fiona approached her to greet her in a motherly way. Andy just let her hold her and when Fiona would kiss her, she would dodge and tell her that she will just go to find her husband. She went to the garden where she left him talking to her Uncle Edmond. 

"What?" Zach\'s voice is irritated, but the sweet flirtatious voice makes Andromeda aware of what\'s happening. "You are drunk, and you don\'t know what you are saying," Zach said calmly and Kathleen threw herself to him. Zach immediately held both of her arms and pushed her away. 

"What?" She frowned. "Your wife is away… besides, she won\'t want to marry you, right? She hated because you left her. Right? She\'s probably torturing you while you are married to her, just to get her revenge." 

   Andy\'s heart clenched hearing it from Kathleen. She looked at Zachary\'s expression and there\'s a little change but then, he becomes serious and determined. Andy turned back and lean on the wall that she\'s been hiding. Kathleen might be right. She married him and torture him for days. She married to get her revenged, but she had fallen on him again. The revenge she\'s giving was probably lying to him one important thing. 

   She looked at her cousin Selina who is holding two glasses of champagne. Selina exhales and gave it to her. Andy drank it all and then interrupt her husband and Kathleen. 

"You know, Kathleen, you are like a leech." Andy pulled Zach to him and she acted as Andy pushed her. But Andy scoffed and grabbed her husband\'s collar, so his eyes are all on her. "What if I am getting my revenge after you left me?" She asked him. 

"It\'s fine with me, as long as we are together. I don\'t care." He caressed her hair. "You are always my ups and downs. My death and my life." He kissed her forehead. 

   Andy\'s heart is clenched even more. She almost couldn\'t breathe. She wanted to tell him the truth behind her lie. Having children is so important to him and her. But how is she going to tell him? When she can\'t even forgive herself? When she can\'t even move on from the past? That every day she thought about it, she gets so anxious that she cursed herself not to have a baby anymore. 

"Hey," Zach called her. Andy smiled and then masked her expression. She then glanced at Kathleen who is still on the grass and then Selina who seemed to be drunk get into the scene. 

"Oh, come on, Kathleen. We all know that you are a good actress. I already signed you up and talked a few producers for their new movie. Don\'t worry okay? You work well." Selina said and then she winked at Andromeda. 

   She wasn\'t closed to Selina, but Selina is also something. She\'s a sweet girl but then got cheated on many times. Well, that happens. Sometimes life sucks but Selina also hates how Drama Queen Kathleen could be. One time, she made a fool of Selina about the guy she got a crushed on their high school and Selina is so embarrassed that she didn\'t go back to their school for a week. 

   The poor girl… she taught her how to protect herself since every Mondragon should learn. Well, it all happens, and this little reunion will be great. 

"You will also love it," Selina told. "It\'s all about sex. A porno." 

   Kathleen stood and was about to fight Selina physically, but Selina started laughing and walked off. Nice. Now Andy knew how to shut Kathleen. Her secret weapon would be Selina. 

"Let\'s go?" Zach hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek. "I am starving. Where\'s your dad?" He hung his arm around her shoulder as they strode back inside and greet their grandfathers. 

   It seemed that the two are talking about great-grandchildren. Andy masked her anxiety as they all sat down, and Edmond surely gathered everything. Paula has been embarrassed by Edmond many times by ignoring her. It seemed that he\'s also waiting for someone until James greets Moira with a big bear hug and Moira greets her grandfather—which the family doesn\'t know about. 

"So, is she James\'s girlfriend?" Elder Pattinson asked. Elder Mondragon laughed and smacked James at the back. James winced and wanted to pat his pained back. 

"No. She\'s so much better." Elder Mondragon winked. "She\'s dating someone more than my Grandson." 

"Ow! You are hurting me so much, Grandpa. I am your grandson!" James said dramatically. 

   Moira chuckled and shook her head. 

"Let\'s settle down," Edmond calls out. 

   Andy noticed how Edmond wanted to talk to Moira. But what if he learned the truth? James pulled out a chair for Moira and she sat down gracefully. Then suddenly, a man in hoody jacket and black shades wearing casual clothes enter and pushed James away from the seat beside Moira. He looked up at him and James frowned. 

   Andel adjusted his seat closer to Moira and put his arm at the back of her chair. He shooed James away and looked at his father in front of him. Edmond cleared his throat and call one of the butlers and told him to serve Andel something. 

"Where\'s Ellen?" Moira murmured to Andel. 

"She\'s coming over dinner." Andel pulled his shades and winked at her. 

"I think everyone is here." Edmond started. Ellen arrived and Zach pulled a chair for her beside him. Ellen greeted him and Andy warmly as she sat beside Andel. 

   James exhales and pulled the chair at the left side of Moira. 

"Everyone, I had gathered you here to enjoy all of your favorite foods that I arranged. Let\'s eat." 

   They started talking and laughing over dinner. But Paula is getting more and more anxious and Kathleen is pissed at Selina who kept on talking about stuff like acting and that she got producers and investors. She\'s pointing something like she should be a porn star. 

   Then, the fake Fiona is doing everything to be the good wife serving Aaron. But Aaron, on the other hand, told her that he doesn\'t need to serve her. He is more like talking more to Zachary about stuff and they forgot that Andel even existed. 

   Andel mostly talked to Moira. He adjusted his seat closer to Ellen and then told Moira to adjust her seat closer to him. James frowned like Andel is doing it on purpose so Moira would be away from James. But the thing that Andel wanted was to touch Ellen. He put his hand over her thigh and since her dress is little that he could insert his hand inside her. 

   Ellen put her blazer over her thigh so people wouldn\'t see. It seemed that Zach is too busy talking to Aaron and then taking care of Andy. The dinner went well and Andel and Ellen are closed together that no one noticed. Andel is so sneaky. He\'s facing Moira but his hand is on her inner thigh, caressing it slowly. She tried hard not to react much to it. 

   After their main course, Edmond stood and the butlers took away their plates and serve the dessert. 

"Family, I just wanted to announce something very important," Edmond said and his lawyer came and he showed them a paper. "I filed an annulment and it has been approved." 

   Everyone was quiet. Paula\'s eyes widen. She thought that he would only ask for separation and cool off but annulment is different. It\'s too much. Paula gaped and she dropped her spoon. Edmond smiled tightly at Paula. 

"That\'s right. I have proof that you have multiple lovers and use my own money for it. Don\'t worry, sweetheart, I\'ll be good. It\'s good enough that I didn\'t sue you for your infidelity." 

"Ed-Edmond." Paula stammered and Kathleen couldn\'t even say anything at all as she started tearing. "Not in front of our daughter." She hissed. 

"It\'s fine. Kathleen needed to know this since she\'s old enough. I didn\'t raise her so I didn\'t track how much she became arrogant to others." Edmond raised his glass. "And for all of the other information… I won\'t be very good from now on." He sent the photos to Paula\'s account and she started shaking. It\'s her and her lover fucking in Paris. In the corner of the street. In the car and everything. "I have never been disgusted to you in my life." 

   Edmond left everyone stunned and they all stare at Paula and Kathleen. Kathleen runs off and Paula is in full embarrassment. She met Moira\'s eyes and then she stood. 

"Well, that\'s quite a show. I enjoy it and the food." Andel stood and patted his sister. "I will be going. And step-mother… please… if you wanted to fuck a guy… not in the public. I beg you. You just put dirt on Mondragon\'s name." He left. 

   Then, Aaron stood and took his desert. 

"Everyone… I enjoy the show so much. I\'ll be leaving." 

"Great, now are my sons happy?" Elder Mondragon asked. Aaron glanced at Fiona and then back to his father. 

"Not yet dad." He said and then left. 

"I enjoy the show," Moira muttered and continue eating her dessert.
