Love at the Right Time 

Chapter

The night I got married, I caught my dad’s 

adopted son nailing my bride on our freaking 

wedding bed

I went ballistic, naturally. But Chad, the 

adopted jerk, didn’t even apologize. He pulled 

a knife and nearly gutted me

Next thing I knew, I woke up in the hospital

My childhood bestie, Lucy, a hotshot lawyer

was there, bawling her eyes out

Don’t worry, Mikey,she sobbed. I’m gonna make that bastard pay.” 

Touched, I put everything in her hands. Chad 

After I got discharged, Lucy, bless her heart

proposed. Said she wanted to make up for 

the whole weddingnight disaster

We became, like, the perfect couple

Everyone envied us. Then, one day,

accidentally overheard Lucy on the phone 

with Chad, who was supposed to be rotting in 

prison

You saved my ass back then,he was 

saying. And then you married him for me

You’ve sacrificed so much.” 

It’s nothing for you, babe. I couldn’t let you 

rot in a jail cell, and I couldn’t bear to see you 

get nothing after the old man kicked the 

bucket.” 

The penny finally dropped Love? It was all 

If that’s how it was, I was outta there

Honey, you’ve given up so much for me. I’m 

so sorry you have to suffer like this.” 

I stood at the doorway, and Chad’s voice 

floated from inside the room, and I felt as if 

all the blood in my veins had turned to ice

What? Was marrying me that bad?! She has 

to suffer at the thought of me?! 

I then heard Lucy choke back tears. Chad, it 

wasn’t your fault. I forgive you. And marrying 

Mikey is just so you can inherit the company.” 

My heart clenched in my chest, and a dull 

く 

pain started throbbing, I remembered waking 

up in the hospital, Lucy’s eyes filled with love 

and concern

It was all fake

From their call, I knew Chad wasn’t in prison

There’s no way you could use a cell phone 

while in prison

Honey, just hang on for a little while longer 

and you can finally relax.” 

Chad’s voice was smooth and I ran from the 

room, not ready to face the truth

The wife I loved for three years tells me 

everything was a lie! How could I accept it?! 

Lucy finished her phone call and came 

downstairs, saw me looking pale, and 

assumed I was worried about my grandfather

Lucy sat next to me, took my hand and 

whispered, “Mikey, Gramps will be okay.” 

I smelled the fragrance of her perfume and 

felt sick and I pulled away from her

Honey?” 

Lucy looked at me confused but before

could say anything the phone rang

Hello? Mr. Chad? Your grandfather is in 

critical condition and is asking for you to be 

here immediately!” 

What?! What happened to my grandfather?!” 

I said in a shocked voice, and without 

thinking, started walking towards the front 

door

Honey, don’t panic! I’ll go and make sure 

everything is handled on our end! You know 

everyone is going to hear the news and they’ll 

try to get ahead!” 

Lucy said hurriedly. Ever since I got hurt from 

Chad I’m unable to move around as quick

I watched her grab the keys and run out the 

door

If I didn’t know the truth I would have believed 

she was worried that Gramps would die and 

there would be no one to take charge and 

that my family would take advantage of the 

that my family would take advantage of the 

situation

But knowing everything I knew now, I knew 

she just wanted to set the stage for Chad

Chad said on the phone to wait for a little bit 

longer, and they were just waiting for Gramps 

to die

Watching her drive away, I got in the car and 

told the driver to rush to the hospital

Even though the driver drove quickly, I was 

still late, and missed the last time I could see 

Gramps

When I ran into the room, Gramps was on the 

bed and covered with a white sheet
