BXBX NOVEL Chapter 293 - Failed Marriage
It had been two weeks since his accident, Oscar planned to come to the headman a week after, but it turned out that he still needed another week to completely recover. Finally, Oscar and Lisa scheduled an appointment to go to the house to tie their vows of life and death after the man\'s arm completely recovered.
They had made a promise to get married at the priest\'s house at 9 am. Lisa was dressed like a bride, very beautiful and charming. With red lipstick, and also an inconspicuous rouge. Her face looked radiant like a rose blooming in a garden. Pure white formal dress wrapped her beautiful curves.
Lisa felt so happy, today was her wedding day with Oscar. Her heart was pounding like crazy when she looked at her face which had just been polished with makeup. It seemed like it was only yesterday when she met Oscar by accident, and after nearly two years of divorce, she was reconciled with the golden-haired man.
The two of them had made a promise to come at 10 am. Unfortunately, Oscar could not accompany Lisa to go home together because there was an important meeting at the office, so Lisa left alone in a taxi while waiting for Oscar to catch up with the chief.
Fortunately, the road that morning was not too crowded, so that in half an hour Lisa had arrived at the head\'s house. She got out of the taxi with graceful and charming steps. The fine hairs hanging from Lisa\'s temples swayed gently in the gentle morning breeze.
If this was a drama film, surely there were rose petals scattered on the ground as Lisa stepped into the ruler\'s house. However, that image was only in Lisa\'s mind. Without realizing it, her red lips lifted into a sweet smile as she was thinking it.
Lisa met the chief and the man told her to come in and sit in the living room while waiting for the groom.
He personally hired a priest because he didn\'t want his marriage to Lisa to be overly exposed by the gossip media. Moreover, Lisa didn\'t really like publication, so getting married privately was the right choice for both of them.
Almost half an hour Lisa waited for Oscar but the man still didn\'t come. Her mind began to cloud, what if something unwanted happened to him like two weeks ago?
The chief tried to calm Lisa who looked very restless. The man offered her to vent with the hope that her heart and feelings would be more relieved. Lisa just nodded, trying not to cause too much trouble.
Lisa couldn\'t sit still. She tapped her feet in anxiety as if she was a student who had forgotten to study before the exam. It was almost 10 o\'clock but Oscar hadn\'t shown his nose at all.
Her hunch was starting to feel something bad was happening. She grabbed her cell phone from her tote bag then called her future husband. She made calls several times but there was no answer. Lisa started to panic, she was afraid that Oscar had another accident like two weeks ago.
Lisa called Oscar a dozen times until it was past 10 in the morning but still got no answer. She sent as many messages as possible but there were also no answers. Finally, Lisa gave up. She then put her cellphone back into her purse while waiting for Oscar to return her call or message.
Lisa bit her fingernails. The more restless she felt, the more her heart was beating so fast as if it was going to fall off her chest. A flash of memory about Oscar\'s accident two weeks ago suddenly came into her increasingly cloudy mind.
Lisa became increasingly anxious and worried when she recalled that time, when Dani and Oscar were talking about the hit-and-run perpetrator who was allegedly a competitor from another company. What if the culprit who injured Oscar two weeks ago was planning a revenge plan or a second attack?
Since she could not stand her anxiety, Lisa immediately took her cellphone again with the intention of calling Oscar but she got a message from an unknown number and opened it.
\'President Director of Petersson Communication will marry his first love: Clara Gunawan at the end of this week!\'
Lisa looked at the message with a surprised look. Her tongue felt numb. She really couldn\'t believe the message she just read. In the same message, there was a photo of an article from the latest gossip media site.
Lisa immediately checked the site in question, and sure enough, the message from an unknown number on her inbox was not a hoax.
An article entitled \'President Director of Petersson Communication will marry his first love: Clara Gunawan this weekend!\' complete with a photo where Clara and Oscar holding hands very intimately.
Lisa really couldn\'t believe what she had just witnessed. It was as if the message was lightning that struck her and fell down into the endless well. Her hands were suddenly shaking. Without realizing it, tears rolled down her eyes.
Two weeks ago, Oscar had proposed to her by giving her a diamond ring and promising to marry her. But reality was not always how she wanted it to be. The world was not on Lisa\'s side.
For a moment, Lisa felt that she was very stupid for accepting a marriage proposal from the man who had hurt her in the past. She should have thought longer before she said \'yes\' when the man proposed to her in the Sky Lounge.
How sick and heartbroken Lisa was that morning. She nearly threw her cellphone on the floor but she was prevented by the priest.
Lisa couldn\'t hold back her sadness anymore. She immediately shed tears for Oscar\'s unfair treatment of her. She couldn\'t understand why she was so stupid to accept a marriage proposal from her ex-husband so quickly.
Shortly thereafter, Lisa\'s cell phone rang. She took her cellphone again then picked up the call.
"Hello?" Lisa said happily.
"Lis! Did you read the news? What the heck? Is Oscar really getting married to Clara this week!? Isn\'t he getting married to you today?" Andien asked her with a high voice. She sounded annoyed with Oscar and worried about Lisa.
Lisa tried to calm herself down before answering Andien\'s question. But the sound of crying could even be heard across.
"Lis, oh, sorry I don\'t mean to hurt you, but I\'m worried about you," Andien replied regretfully.
"Ndien, can you please not ask about this again, my mind is in chaos right now. I have to meet Oscar to seek clarification!" The sound of crying could still be heard across.
"Can you go alone? If you meet Oscar, you will definitely meet Clara. She must be right next to him! Let me accompany you!" Andien replied anxiously.
Lisa did not pay attention to Andien\'s last words, she immediately closed the call and asked the chief\'s permission and told him that her marriage was canceled.
Lisa immediately ordered a taxi and headed home, looking for Oscar, and obviously seeking a clarification from him.
***
Arriving home, Lisa immediately barged in without much thought. She didn\'t have much time to take off her high heels. With broken cries and a smeared face, Lisa was screaming for Oscar to all corners of the house.
"Oscaaaaar!! You bastard!!! Come out! You liar! Come out here I\'ll fucking fight you!"
Lisa had gone round all corners of the house but she did not find Oscar at home. Her breath was panting because she was not calm.
She began to calm her mind, trying to organize her chaotic thoughts.
"Bastard! Oscar\'s in the office! Why am I coming back here?" Lisa scolded herself irritably.
