They Killed Me Once; Now I'll Marry Their Worst Nightmare

If the Vale family saw this, they would surely despise her, then accepting her was a big, "NO" she was still under probation. He needs to make sure Lucien doesn't lose face in the family today.

"Mrs Celestelle, you will be going out with Mr Vale tonight. I have been assigned to take care of your appearance. "Zachary said".

Celestelle looked at him, and then a loud scoff came out of her lips.

"Like some kid that needed a babysitter right" Celestelle said with a smug smile, rage bubbling beneath it.

Zachary was at a loss for what to say. One thing he had noticed was that she had a sharp tongue, and it seemed like his judgment was bad this time.

Mrs Celestelle please be considerate, and don't make things difficult for me. "Zachary's tone was pleading". He didn't think he had met anyone so unreasonable as she was.

Well, Mr. Zachary, I'm famished and can't entertain you so I'd go first "Celestelle said walking away".

"She didn't see any reason why she was supposed to go out with Lucien, it was just a fake marriage. He needed a wife and she needed power, so what was she supposed to be doing going out with him?, Those things were meant for real couples and not someone like her. "She thought".

Zachary was on a hot seat, he couldn't go chasing a woman like that, and he couldn't apply pressure either. With no choice, he decided to call Lucien. He was the best solution to the current situation.

"Mr Vale…..I…I…I arrived at White Group, but Mrs Celestelle is being unreasonable" Zachary said over the phone.

There was a pause. Then Lucien's voice came out low as usual.

"Are you getting bad at your job as the day passes", Lucien asked.

"That's not it, I can't force a lady, we are in a public space," Zachary explained.

Lucien cursed under his breath then said; "hand the phone over to her now" His voice was sharp and commanding.

Zachary who had been trailing behind Celestelle immediately shoved the phone into her hands, whilst earning a mocking scoff from her.

"Hello," Celestelle called.

"If you need that power so much you might as well fulfill the things I want you to do, the only thing I won't ask you to do and which you have made specific".

"It's we being skin to skin, in the middle of the night, where everyone is asleep, that your moan could be loud enough to startle birds. Very early at dawn before I leave for work, giving you a quick morning meal, with my lower man. Then at noon as my lunch. I'd wreck your legs, and you would feel sore for a full week."

"These are the only things I won't ask of you, but any other thing aside that you would do if I ask you to". Or….we might as well get a divorce, Or gave those things a chance."Lucien's voice was low, commanding, and seductive".

"Celestelle was at a loss of words, even when the call ended she was still in a trance. The sinful things he had said kept echoing in her head Time and time again".

"Gritting her teeth she followed Zachary to his car, she was truly mad. How dare he say those things to her. And she even had to blush at those disgusting things".

"Zachary was puzzled wondering what could be the reason she agreed so easily, that could only be the power Mr. Vale possessed which he couldn't".

On their way to the fashion house, they branched by a French restaurant.

It was hard for Celestelle but eventually, she tried one or two meals, drinking enough water to support her fill.

They arrived at the fashion house, which was bustling with customers trooping in and out consistently.

With Lucien's connection, they arrived at the VVIP room, only for exclusive customers with Gold cards.

Celestelle was bound to be stressed as she had to change varieties of clothes and each one had to be sent to Lucien for approval.

Celestelle was patient, she still needed him, if not she wouldn't entertain him this much and it was beginning to cripple her bones.

She didn't know why the man was hellbent on making things difficult for her.

Eventually after hours of trying different dresses on, Lucien finally picked one.

The to and fro of the clothes, with the time they ate and arrived took nearly three hours. Celestelle was extremely exhausted; she felt she would break at any moment.

But that wasn't all, she would have to go through with a hectic makeup, which would be time-consuming and exhausting.

By six Celestelle came out of the dressing room, in a black A-line dress, with lace around the corset. The waist was trimmed to perfection, which acquainted her waistline perfectly. A silver waist chain hovered around her waist. She wore a pair of lace gloves.

Her midnight hair was packed and curled in a burn, a few curls fell at her sides. She wore an obsidian necklace, and her makeup was neither too heavy nor light, just at the right setup.

She looked like a midnight goddess. When she stepped out Zachary couldn't close his mouth. Black or Red, which of them suits her most? Zachary thought.

Celestelle rolled her eyes at his reaction and then gave him a strong jab. "Staring at a married woman like that huh, what do you think would happen if your boss found out or the press, do you want a scandal "Celestelle said with a scoff".

Zachary cleared his throat awkwardly before leading the way.

Lucien's car was parked at the entrance already. He had a navy blue suit on, legs crossed together in elegance, a tablet in hand as he went through some files, his gaze calm and focused, he had just one stud on, an earbud in his ear as he listened to the report being given to him.

Then his eyes went in the direction of the car window, and then he saw Celestelle coming out of the fashion house. Her gaze was composed and calm, her steps elegant and firm.

Lucien's gaze flickered. He had to admit the woman he married as a wife was damn beautiful, sharp, elegant, and seductive without even trying and there was even more to it.

His gaze was intense and overbearing, he blink his eyes slightly to hide those emotions from surfacing.

Celestelle opened the car door and stepped in joining Lucien inside.

Drive to the ancestral home "Lucien said slowly.
