Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle
Twenty minutes before the "Wedding of the Century" at The Plaza, I stood outside the Presidential Suite in a fifty-thousand-dollar Vera Wang gown. I was the girl from a West Virginia trailer park about to marry Hugh Maxwell, the golden heir to a billion-dollar defense empire. I pushed the door open only to find Hugh pinned against the bed with my own stepsister, Floy. She was wearing my bridal diamond necklace, and the sounds of their laughter scraped against my eardrums like sandpaper. I didn't scream; I listened as Hugh grunted that once the wedding was over and the trust fund unlocked, he'd dump "that hillbilly trash" on a bus back to the mountains. They weren't just cheating; they were planning to steal my family's land deeds and leave me with nothing. When I set off the sprinklers and exposed their naked bodies to the paparazzi, the Maxwell family didn't apologize. They called me a "greedy peasant" and threatened to ruin my life unless I signed a new deal to save their crashing stock. I realized then that I was never a bride to them. I was a transaction, a rounding error in a ledger to be used and discarded. They thought my poverty made me weak and my silence made me a victim. "If we don't have a marriage certificate by midnight, the bank freezes thirty percent of our liquidity," their lawyer warned. So, I gave them exactly what they wanted. I used a loophole in their hundred-year-old family covenant and married the only other direct heir available. I didn't marry Hugh. I walked into the ICU and married his uncle, Fleet Maxwell-the legendary war hero who had been in a vegetative state for months. Now, I am the matriarch of the Maxwell dynasty. I've suspended Hugh's executive powers, exiled my mother-in-law to the Swiss Alps, and taken control of the family vault. They think I'm just a gold-digger waiting for a "corpse" to die so I can collect a fifty-million-dollar widow's payout. But last night, as I lay beside my comatose husband, the man they called a vegetable gripped my hand back."Mom.......mom....mom....come on hurry up. Let's go we will get late. Dad is waiting in the car" I shouted in excitement
"Coming honey" she shouted from the kitchen.
But I still kept shouting for her from the main door because I am so excited about our overseas vacation, "Mom... mom.... mom."
She came running after checking everything for the last time in the kitchen. Because we are going for a long vacation after so many years.
Dad was always busy with his work but he never neglects me or mom. He always gives us time and this time overseas vacation.
O my god I am so excited.
I heard the car's horn sound from my behind it made a smile on my face wider.
We were in the car, mom was telling dad that she had checked everything last time before leaving and they got busy in there talking.
Suddenly shout from my mouth made them look back in terror. Mom and dad both in union asked, "What happened honey." Dad halted the car to the side of the road and mom was searching for any kind of injury on my body.
"Is there any injury honey" dad asking in a worried voice. Mom was still examining my body. After being fully showered in a happy voice, she told him there was no injury on my body dad sigh in relief.
"What happened honey? Why did you shout, " mom asked me
"Look mom look" I was showing her the map of Disneyland pointing to the various rollercoaster ride. She was staring at the map. She had no clue what I was trying to show her.
"Is something wrong with your fingers honey why are you moving your finger so fast". She took my hand in her hands and started examining them. Dad was looking at everything from the driver's seat with an amused face. He understood what I was trying to show mom. I smiled sheepishly at him.
"Noo, mom nothing is wrong with my fingers. Look there are so many rides here. We are going to ride on each and every ride, " I said in excitement looking at a map.
