Bound by secret

Chapter 10

Damian's POV

I stood in front of the mirror as Landon adjusted my tie, getting me ready for the wedding. I only knew the woman I was getting married to was a golddigger, she was marrying me because of my money, my mind wandered off to the day I received the news about my wedding.

********

"Damian! Damian!" Mother called out as she ran downstairs in excitement.

"I'm here," I managed to say as I sat up on the couch.

"I found a wife for you," the color on my face drained.

"What? How?" My voice barely whispers.

"The kids' nanny, they are very fond of her so it will work and I can vouch for her, she is my best student," mom giggled like a little child.

"Does she know about me? What is in it for her?" I couldn't understand why a lady would want to marry someone she didn't love.

"Definitely, she will be your wife in return I have to save her family," I burst into laughter.

She marrying me for money, what could I expect, a f*****g golddigger and I will make her pay.

I wanted to refuse, but then I remembered the promise I made to my mother some while ago, "Okay, I will prepare the contract."

*******

"Can't believe I'm getting married today again, I wonder how my Shelia must be feeling from there, I betrayed her didn't I?" I smiled at the mirror.

"Sheila must be proud of you right now and I know she will understand," Landon gave me an encouraging smile.

"Have you seen the bride before?" I asked Landon.

"Francis and Selena have lots of nannies so I wouldn't know which you are getting married to," Landon patted me on the back.

"Okay, hope you threatened the priest so we won't say or do anything because I can't afford to betray Sheila more," I let out a breath.

"Damian, do you trust me?" Landon raised his eyebrows with a mischievous smile on his face.

I smiled back, I knew Landon had done something crazy but I didn't want to find out rather I will trust the process.

"We are extremely late, let's get going, the bride must be waiting," Landon tapped my shoulder as we both went to the venue.

We arrived at the church, everyone was looking at the blood on my sleeve with fear in their eyes.

My eyes met mom's eyes and all I could see was disappointment, "it was my own blood, I didn't hurt anyone," I mouthed to her as I walked to the altar.

Mom rolled her eyes as if not believing anything I had said to her, I couldn't be bothered right now, I will talk to her later.

While on the other hand I could see the bride's attention was on a glass mirror on the altar, I looked carefully to see what she was seeing and I realized it was Landon doing.

I tried to hold my laughter back, was this the plan Landon was talking about, holding a priest at gunpoint, I guess I should thank him at least.

The wedding went as smoothly as possible. I left the hall immediately after putting the Ring on her finger. I didn't have the time to see her face as I wanted to be as far Away from her as possible.

Landon followed behind me as we entered the car and drove around LA till it was dark.

"Shouldn't you go prepare for your wedding night?" Landon teased.

"There is no need to, I plan on spending tonight with Sheila," I said, feeling disheartening. I really wanted Shelia to be here with me today of all days.

"Don't let your wife be lonely, Don and right now she is the Madam to everyone and everything, you have to show her all these things," I nodded my head.

I was about to park my car in it's right spot when I saw a young lady who's black hair slides down her back to her waist wearing a silk transparent nightwear and my sleeve shirt on top.

"That's your shirt so it must be your wife," Landon pointed at the woman.

"I'm not sure, I haven't seen her face yet but where is she running off to at this time of the night?" I asked under my breath.

I watched as the Lady stood in the middle of the parking lot in confusion, with the press of a key in her hands, one of my favorite race cars turned on.

"No, no! Not that car, I just got it!" She entered the car and drove off at high speed.

"I guess she already knows her right," amusement danced in Landon's tune.

"She seems to be in a rush, let's follow her," Landon added.

"Why would I? I have plans," Landon stared at me, I tried to ignore but later started the car and followed behind her slowly.

"Don, what's her name?" Landon asked.

"I don't know, I'm just aware she is the kids' nanny and my mom's student," I answered, then realization dawned on me.

"If she is my mom's student , meaning she is a young girl or might even be a minor," my eyes widened at the thought of it.

"Minor?" Landon scoffed, "I'm sure she isn't that young."

I glared at Landon before I continued driving recklessly behind her, the car finally came to a stop at my aunt's hospital.

"I wondered what she could be doing here," I whisper to Landon's hearing.

"Just find out first," Landon said calmly.

I came down from the car and followed behind her. She went straight to the VIP ward. What could she be doing at the VIP ward if she is marrying me for money?

I stood by the side and waited for her to enter the particular room she was going to enter before I came out. On the door of the VIP ward had my cousin's name on it.

Does she know Louis? Or maybe it's another person's name.

I opened the door slowly to see the woman I was married to locked in another man's embrace and his lips locked together in hers.
