Chapter 3 C3

Never in her wildest imaginations could Sonia have expected that she would win twelve times in a row.

"You are definitely cheating!" Daniel accused in a drunken state.

"What? You're the one throwing the dice. How can I be the one cheating? Just admit it, you didn't think I was going to win. Well, that's how gambling works!"

Sonia giggled. She had never had any luck in gambling all her life, as such, she didn't expect her luck to be so good today.

However, Daniel wasn't convinced. "Fine! Again!" He was determined to make a comeback.

Sonia's thick eyelashes flickered open. "Okay! This is the last one. The big one! I have already lost everything today! So why the hell not. Marriage isn't a big deal! I can get married whenever I want. How about this? If I win again, you will have to marry me!"

"Deal!"

The only thought in Daniel's mind was to win this game. Besides, he wasn't used to losing to anybody.

"Great! I like you!" Finishing her words, she pushed the cup closer to him. "It's your turn. I'm guessing it's a small number."

"I'll bet on big numbers!" Daniel shook the cup before opening it.

One, two, three-small!

Sonia could not help bursting into laughter as she was quite pleased with herself. Never before had she felt so satisfied in all her twenty-one years on this planet.

Daniel, on the other hand, was at a loss. He had never been so displeased in all his twenty-six years on this planet.

It was time to honor the bet!

He grabbed her hand and said, "Let's go and get married in a church in Las Vegas!"

(Fast forward to the present day....)

The bright sunshine fell on the floor through the mullioned window.

There was a complete silence in the room, apart from the sound of heavy and rapid breathing.

The two people stood in front of the window silently, staring at each other blankly. They could not remember how they got married.

However, it was certain that the marriage certificates were real and legit.

They were already a couple.

Daniel was considering how to end this absurd marriage. He had a lot of experience on how to reject a woman, but he had never divorced someone before.

However, he decided that no matter what condition Sonia would propose, as long as it was not too far from the truth, he would try his best to satisfy it. After all, from the looks of it, there was no use hiding the fact that they had slept together. And what's more...

The moment he looked at the blood on the sheet, Sonia blushed and quickly ran to the bed to pull the blanket to cover it.

The reason why she hadn't slept with any man for so many years was that she wanted James to be her first man. Now, she had lost both him and her virginity.

Life could be so unpredictably cruel. She had fallen from heaven to hell in just one night.

"Well, let's go to the Court and get a divorce now," she said, stifling all the pain in her heart.

There was no use crying over spilled milk. It was better to nip that little romance in the bud.

Daniel was shocked as he didn't expect her to be so straightforward. There were no conditions, no requirements and no blackmails. He was starting to admire her!

"It's past 10:30 now. The Court will be closed at twelve o'clock. There is only an hour and a half left! We have to take a taxi to get there on time. We can split the fare," Sonia spoke in a straightforward way and a rare gentle light flashed across Daniel's face.

They came out of the elevator and walked side by side. But it was not easy for Sonia, as she felt a dull pain in her legs. Even though her recollection of the night was still unclear, she could imagine how aggressive Daniel must have been in bed.

He sensed her pain and slowed down his pace.

Just as they arrived at the gate of the community, they saw Fabian coming out from her BMW. She was here to pick a bone with Sonia. Since James was there yesterday, she didn't have a chance to tear her apart. Today, she had come for some unfinished business.
