Once I became his wife, Id make sure to teach them all a lesson.
Debras POV:
Andrew and I arrived at Veronicas manor for a dinner party.
The drive from the main gate to the villa, where the party was being held, took us over ten minutes.

As we pulled up, Andrew opened the car door for me, lending a hand as I stepped out.
I hesitated for a moment before placing my hand in his, reluctantly embracing the role of his fiancee, despite my inner resistance.
In a hushed tone, Andrew cautioned me, Stay close tonight. Veronica owns all this land around the mountain, and beyond that, its still wild. Its easy to get lost here after dark, and we might not find you quickly. Plus, theres the wildlife to worry about.
I nodded in agreement, replying sensibly, Ill be careful not to wander off.
With a gentle smile, Andrew offered his arm, which I accepted.
Together, we made our way to the villas back garden, the venue for the evening.
Upon our entrance, a flurry of guests approached to welcome us, among them one of Andrews subordinates, Daniel, who was accompanied by his wife.
Daniel handed Andrew a glass of champagne, beaming as he said, Congratulations on your engagement.
Andrew accepted the glass, their glasses chimed together, and he took a hearty swig.
Daniels wife, smiling warmly, complimented me. Your fiancee is stunninga truly perfect match for you. Congratulations!
I returned the smile, feigning shyness. Thank you, youre quite stunning yourself.

Inside, I harbored a twinge of guilt. After all, Andrew and I werent actually engaged.
Just then, I felt a piercing stare cutting through the festivities.
Turning instinctively, my eyes landed on Shirley, resplendent in a red dress.
While Shirleys personality never charmed me, it was undeniable that she possessed both beauty and allure, ranking highly among the witch clan.
Despite myself, I took another look at Shirley. Meeting her intense stare, I offered a small smile and quickly diverted my gaze.
Shirley soon joined them, offering a cheerful greeting to Andrew.
Upon spotting Shirley, Daniel and his wife promptly excused themselves.
With no one else around, Shirley felt free to act more boldly. She frowned at Andrew and complained, Andrew, why did it take you so long? Ive been waiting forever.
I felt a twinge of embarrassment observing Shirley; her actions bordered on openly flirting.
