Mia was trying on her white lace ball gown wedding dress with long sleeves and was looking at herself in the mirror, she looked beautiful even though her makeup was bad and her hair was in a messy bun. While she was thinking about her perfect wedding, the decorations, and her good-looking fiance, her phone beeped. She received a message from her fiance Scott. Scott Turner was her fiance, the man she loved, was in a relationship for 3 years and was planning to spend her life with. She read the message. "Baby, I can not wait to see you in that gown of yours, please come downstairs" Mia knew that is bad luck for the groom to see the bride wearing the wedding dress before the wedding, but she decided to go against her instinct and went downstairs. She could not find Scott anywhere and asked the store clerk. - Excuse me, have you seen my fiance? He wrote me a message that he is here, but I can't find him. - Yes miss, he was here with your sister, but they went outside a few minutes ago. When she heard that her sister is there, she was surprised but did not pay any attention to it. - Thank you. - Miss you can not go out dressed like that. - Oh, please, I just want him to see me. She opened the door, saw Scott's car, and she was devastated at the view. Scott and her sister Ana were sitting in the back seat, kissing. Ana could see Mia's face and a smirk appeared. Tears started falling, Mia could not stop crying, she wanted to get out of there. - Miss are you okay? Please return inside. She could not talk, she only nodded and went inside, undressed slowly with the help of the shop assistant, and went outside. There she saw Scott and Anna, they were talking. She did not know what to do but decided not to tell or show them that she knows the truth. She was going to act as nothing happened and she decided that she will get revenge on them. - Hey baby - Scott said. He kissed her on her cheek. - Hey baby, sorry that I did not come downstairs, but you know it is bad luck for the groom to see the bride in a wedding dress before the wedding. - Mia said - No need to say sorry, I understand, but that will not happen to us, we will be very happy. - Scott said Mia turned toward her stepsister. - Anna, what are you doing here? - Mia asked. - Oh, I just wanted to see the dress, so when Scott told me he is coming here I had to come to see you. - Ana said. - Oh, you have never before wanted to come with me, it is strange. Baby, can you take me home? Mia asked. - Of course baby. Are you okay?- Scott asked - Yes baby I am a little tired. *** On the other side of New York, a letter arrived at Carter's residence. It said that the King family is asking one of their daughters to marry their only son. The Carter family had already heard about Christian King. They knew he was an ugly crippled and bad man. He had a temper as well. When Victoria read the letter she had a plan in mind. She knew what she will do. She will marry her ugly stepdaughter Mia to King's only son and will make a path for them to a better life and maybe a suitable husband to her real daughter. She had already advised Anna to try and catch Scott Turner, her stepdaughter's boyfriend but this opportunity was even better. They arrived in front of the house. - Scott do you want to come in? -Anna asked with a seductive voice. - No, he will not come in. she turned towards him and said: - Baby you must be tired, you do not have to come. I will talk to you tonight. - Mia said - I am not tired, baby if you want I can come. - Scott said - I understand, but baby I am tired, talk tonight, please. - Mia said - Of course, baby, go and rest and I will call you later. - Scott said - Bye. - Mia said - Bye. - he blew her a kiss and left. Mia and Anna entered the house, and they could see Victoria sitting in the living room and talking something with Michael, her husband, and Mia's father. - Hello - Mia greeted them. - Hello honey - Victoria said. At the moment Victoria was nice to her, Mia knew that something was going on. - Anna can you please leave us alone with your sister. Victoria said. - What is going on? Mia asked - Mia we received a letter today in which it says that the King family wants to marry their son with you. We were discussing with your father, we know that you have a boyfriend and you are planning to get married, but there is something you should know. Scott is courting your... - Victoria was interrupted At that moment Mia spoke. - I will do it, I will get married. When is the wedding, I want it to be as soon as possible. - Mia, honey are you sure? Why would you do that, you are already engaged. Is everything okay? - Father I do not know how to tell you this, I do not love Scott anymore, he has been terrible and broke my heart. I have seen Christian, he is not bad and I would like to marry him. Mia lied. - Yes baby I understand and I will give a piece of my mind to Scott, but you do not have to do this. Michael said -I know father, but I want to do it. She thought that this will be a great opportunity to get revenge on the man she has devoted her life to. Christian King and his family are some of the richest people in America and she hoped that he will do everything he can to make his wife happy. at least she hoped that. - Baby are you sure? Michael asked At that moment his phone rang and he did not even pay any more attention to his daughter. - Yes father I would like to do it. she said, but he was so deep into the phone conversation that he did not even hear her. - Then it is settled. The wedding will be in 5 days in the Royal garden in downtown New York. You have already picked a wedding dress and there is no need to invite a lot of people. Victoria said - I will marry him, but only under one condition. Victoria frowned. - What do you want? Victoria asked. - I do not want anyone to know, especially not SCOTT, and after this wedding, I do not want to hear from you or your daughter. Victoria had a smirk on her face. - Why would you say that? she asked - Please Victoria, I know what your daughter did, and I am sure that you knew all along about it, so don't play innocent with me. - What are you talking about? she pretended an innocent look on her face. - I am done talking, do we have a deal or not? Mia asked - Of course, we have a deal. They shook hands. Victoria was satisfied and Mia was glad that after this wedding she will not have to deal with her family, she was only sorry about her father, but she knew she will do everything in her power to protect him and save him from the grasp of Victoria and Ana. *** 3 days passed quickly. Mia was waiting for the makeup artist to finish her makeup. Suddenly, the door opened, and Victoria walked in. - Everything is ready. Can you please hurry up? The King family will be here any minute. Victoria said. - Yes stepmother. There was a knock on the door. Mia's father came in and said: - The King family has arrived. He looked at his beautiful and gentle daughter and said: - Mia are you sure you want to get married to Christian King? Is this your final decision? Mia looked at her father. - Yes father I want to, I am sure of it. The King family is the wealthiest and most valued family in New York. The heir, Christian, was disfigured when he was kidnapped 15 years ago. Since then, Christian has not appeared in front of others. He was rumored to be cruel, ugly, and terrible. At the altar, she saw a man in a wheelchair, an ugly man. She thought: "Grief is greater than death, even if Christian is the devil, I do not care." And so it began, they were married.
