Pearl's POV:"So, when are you going to agree to the divorce?"There I said the words I was agitating over. The decision wasn't made in a hurry, I thought over and over again, if I could just let everything go and give him a chance. Believe I tried my best but I could not, not when I knew everything would become really toxic, if I do that as I can never actually get over this and never feel the love if should have between us as a couple. So why should I stretch a relation like that when I could already assume what was going to so obviously happen in the future?Yes, forgiveness comes from the greater person, but I never want to be someone great when I couldn't even afford being that and will end up being the bad person anyway because I wouldn't let go?So, even if it hurt, I wanted to part ways. I wanted to talk on this the moment I came back but I wanted live a few moments as his wife which I never was. For a tiny moment, I found myself picturing what would be it like if I just stay.
Two Years laterPearl's POV:With a glass of Champagne in my hand, I looked over the party which was thrown to celebrate my success in the fashion world. After the project with Benedict, I never had to look back as more and more works kept coming and soon I was not only the daughter of an influential man but made a name of my own. People are now excited to wear my designs and my name is being written on multiple magazines.Things were tough, but I was a survivor and that got me the chance to see my loved ones being proud of me and gathered under one roof."Congratulations, sister." Armin's voice made me look back, I didn’t even realize someone was walking towards me."Thank you. Are you back for good?" After Lou got married to Alexander last year, Armin left the country and went to Brazil. This boy always kept everything to himself, so I never got to be sure that he was in love with my best friend."Yeah, thinking of staying here from now on." He smiled, stuffing his hands in his pock
Pearl's POV: I am Pearl Bennett and at the age of 24. I graduated in fashion designing from NYU, that's last year. My mother expected me to join the family business, but I wanted to open a boutique on my own and my father supported me on this. With the status of my family, I really don't have to work but I wanted to make an identity of my own. My family was very supportive though. When I told my family that I need inspiration for my designs, they helped me to travel various countries like France, Germany, China, India and many more. Because I can only know their culture by seeing them from near and thus making my designs extraordinary. My walk in closet is full of various types of clothes, shoes, ornaments and countless other accessories. I have three cars for my own. To meet up to my every demand, my family made sure that efficient people worked for me
Pearl's POV:"Pearl dear, are you ready for tonight's party?" My mother asked me entering my room.Tonight papa and uncle Rob will announce their new project, a shipping business actually, in which they are both equal shareholders. Uncle Rob called me yesterday and said that there will be two surprises for me. I am really excited for that.I was wearing a violet gown with sweetheart neckline which matches my eyes and I tied my hair in an elegant bun.

Because I love to be in the same height as him.My mom was also wearing a gown which was in a very beautiful shade of crème and she was carrying a shawl with it. I often wonder how does she manage to
Pearl's POV:Uncle Rob came out from inside with a full moon smile on his face followed by Ryan who was in a stony mood.'Why is there a big difference between their mood?' I asked myself.Don't think of these things Pearl. That is not your place. They can do whatever they want.The inner bitch of me snapped at me."Ms. Bennett congratulations. You will be married soon. How are you feeling?" A middle length man asked bringing me out from my thought land, he was holding a notepad in his hand which assured that he was some s
Pearl's POV:Only five days left before my wedding. If you ask me that I am excited or not then my answer will be yes and no.Thinking what kind of answer is that?Yes, because I am excited to wear my wedding dress and all the attention I will be getting that day and no because one can't be excited to get herself stuck in a marriage without love.But no one knows what will happen in future. May be... Just may be I can get the love of my life from this marriage. It will take time but I will.I know Ryan doesn't look at me properly but come on I am the gorgeous Pearl Bennett.
