Complicated but Perfect (COMPLETE), Fearless Pinoy [most popular novels .TXT] 📗

What on earth is he trying to say?

I look at Rose but she just stare at Jed, later Rose left the area. And from a moment I think she leave the place.

Jed has no heart and I don’t want him. What if one day I’ll gonna regret marrying to a man who has no heart at all?

“Cheska, I want to marry you” Jed smirks and I know that the smirks means something but I just roll my eyes and walk out. I need to breathe some fresh air.

I don’t want to marry him. Oh! I have so many plans and besides he loves someone else, I don’t to be a rebound or a choice. If only someone can help me or change my place. I look at the sky above for hope, how can I get rid of him?

“So you’re just here” I jump off from the bench to look at the man who’s talking, Jed. Now what, asshole day? “Both our parents left already, they just want to make sure that we met before they went to some kind of business trip”

I roll my eyes and sit down at the bench again, pretending that I didn’t hear anything. Praying that he will leave me the hell out alone, and then I was wrong. Instead of walking out, Jed sat down beside me. Ugh! Come on.

“Don’t think that I agree to marry you because I like you. The truth is I’m not” he said. Ugh! How can he say those things? Is he ridiculous? “I just don’t want to disappoint my parents”

“I want you to back out about the wedding” I snap. I look at him seriously and he did the same thing. “You understand? I don’t want to marry you”

“What’s wrong about marrying me? Aha! What if I don’t?” he smirks. This is seriously ridiculous; a young successful bachelor knows how to smirk?

What if he doesn’t want to back out? Well, I guess I might plan that but wait! “I will tell them that you propose to another girl” I smirk back. Now, let us see who the boss is.

I thought he will get mad and back out the wedding but I’m so totally wrong. Instead, he smiles staring at me intently and move his face closer to mine. I can feel his breathe; I can see his lips closer to mine. I want to push him away but I can’t move, looking face to face to this kind of handsome guy? I clearly can’t just ignore his beauty.

“You won’t say a single word about my proposal to Rose or you’ll regret that you met me” he said seriously. “And don’t ever think that I will do some stupid things like kissing you” then he stand up and walk back inside the house leaving me shock but piss.

How could he possible say it to me? Over my live body, I will not be married to him! He’s pathetic. I want to yell at him, to let him know that I don’t like him. My phone vibrates, it’s a call.

“Hello?” I answer. “Hey, Cheska it’s me Jessica. I just want to let you know that the lot that we are planning to buy for our restaurant has been sold to Jed” “What the hell? But we already pay the owner, right? I snap

“I’m on my way to pay them but Jed bought it last night and he doubles the pay” Jessica sobs. “I’ll handle this, I will call you later” then I hang up.

JED CRAWFORD, you piece of shit! Revenge will be mine.

I look around the house to find Jed inside his mini library. I rush inside without hesitation. He really ruins my life and I won’t let him ruin it without ruining him too.

“What the heck are you doing?” I snap and he jump off the couch. “Reading, what do you think” he sits down on the couch again. “What I mean is why you buy the Baltimore’s lot?” I hiss and take the magazine off his hand.

“What’s your problem about that? The Baltimore’s place is fantastic and I’m planning to extend Rose’s company there”

“Leave the Baltimore’s place alone and I will not say a single word about you and Rose, understand?” I said sarcastically but seriously. I action to leave the library but he held me by his hand immediately.

“I will leave the Baltimore’s place, but marry me” he said. I froze and turn my gaze at him. He’s freeing serious about it. “Why should I? If ---“ “Just 6 months, after that we file an annulment” he said. “Take it or leave it” he continues.

The Baltimore’s Place is a big lot in Canada. I save a lot of money just to buy it; I want to let my parents know that I can manage a business too. Jessica helps me to find that place and this Jed will just ruin everything? And wants to marry me?

“I’m waiting Cheska” he snaps. “6 months! It’s a deal” I don’t have any choice. And besides 6 months is not that long. After 6 months we will be free from each other.

“It’s nice doing business with you, by the way I’m planning that tomorrow will be the wedding. I need to call our parents” then he walks outside the library.

What the heck? The wedding will be tomorrow? Is he trying to kill me? He’s trying to make Rose jealous! My subconscious spats. Yeah right, how can I possibly forget about it? What should I do?

I went to my bedroom to think something else. The flaws about Jed are proposing other girl and blackmailing me. Ugh! Did I catch the entire baffle in the world? I want to be free out here.

My phone buzzes indicating a call. I look at the caller ID and it’s from my brother. “Hello” I answer. “Hey, how are you doing? Dad and mom told me that tomorrow is your wedding. I thought you don’t want to marry him? What change your mind?” Frank asks and I know that he’s happy.

I give him a big sigh. “Nah, I just need to embrace my destiny. Beside, dad and mom told me that… Never mind! By the way, are you coming tomorrow?”

“Of course, I won’t miss the chance to see my little sister marrying man he love or not?” he teases. I giggle and we both hang up. I miss Frank already, he knows that I don’t like this agreement but I don’t have a choice but to follow their wills and beside Jed and I also had an agreement that our marriage will end until 6 months.

I dive on my bed and let my body feel the comfort that brought from it. I need to take some time to think. A moment of silence erupts not until a knock from my bedroom door occur.

“Come in” I said while sitting up on the bed. The door open and granny is smiling at me. “Hey granny, what can I do for you?” I manage a slight smile.

“I’ve heard that tomorrow is your wedding. I’m happy for the two of you” granny said. “Yeah, well. I don’t have a choice and besides we have a secret… I mean that’s our parents will” I must not tell her about the deal that Jed and I talked about. Or else Baltimore’s place will never be mine.

“Cheska, just take time knowing Jed he’s good and responsible” she smile. Yeah right responsible. “You’ll never know that you might fall in love with him and him to you” My mouths drops open. There’s no way I’ll fall for him and I know he loves somebody else.

“That’s impossible granny. We’re both forced to do this, we don’t want to disappoint our parents” I smile. “Well, I hope you think of it! Arrange marriage will end up into perfect. I have to go, just call me if you need everything alright? I’ll just call you for dinner” she bids and walks off.

But before she’s gone out of my sight “I just want to take a sleep granny, this day is so tiring and I want to be alone. I won’t get that privilege after the wedding” then I shut the door close.

“Sleeping beauty wake up, today will change your life! You’re Wedding day” I jerk out from my sleep to see my mom, Clarisse and granny staring down at me. Are they really the excited to ruin my sleep?

“Give me a break mom, I’m still sleeping! Why can’t you wait that I wake up by myself in my own time?” I hiss but it was too late. Clarisse pull me out of the bed and push me to the bathroom, before I can protest she shut the door close. I’m standing in the bathroom with her. Now what?

“Let’s get you ready for the day” Clarisse smile. ”But—““No but’s okay? Now just keep quiet and let me handle this”

After 30 minutes inside the bathroom, I was able to get out now. No mirrors, I can’t see my own face this is pathetic! “You’re so beautiful Cheska” mom gasps. I smile at her and there I notice on my bed lay a white long gown. It’s beautiful no one can argue about it! Mom did a great job.

“Now, fit this gown I made with the help of my friends” mom said.

I did what she told me, and the gown fits me perfectly. “Here comes the mirror” granny giggles. I smile and look myself on the mirror. There I see a beautiful woman standing, looking at me. She’s so matured; too way off from the real me. I smile then walk towards my study table.

“What’s wrong Cheska?” mom asked. “Nothing mom, I just love my wedding dress” and I hope that I wear this wedding dress to marry the man I love.

“And who will put on my make-up?” I ask. They all smile at me. “You
