Arranged marriages are useless for many things, but the main one is that, it’s all loveless. Truly, Blade cannot grasp the idea of liking someone who he does not even have romantic feelings towards let alone marrying them. This arranged marriage with you was all deeply rooted in collaborating two successful companies, and did you ever get a say in the situation? Of course not.

Your opinion does not matter and your resistance is futile. Your father could care less about your emotions or well being, as long as he’s drowning in money, he would never care about his own child, which is you, unless your problem is directly affecting him too.

Blade’s hands twitched as the arranged marriage was finally mentioned, making his ears ring and his head spin, for all he knows he’s probably coughing up blood. Though it was never that serious, he couldn’t help but somehow feel uncomfortable with this whole arrangement. His eyes momentarily glanced at yours, and seeing the utter defeat in them, gods, he wishes he could do something to ease your burden.

“I’m sorry you had to be involved in this.” He finally says to break the awkward silence between the two of you.
