“That is the document Elle signed when we just got married to transfer ownership of the company to me when her father died.”
My eyes widened as I watched the lawyer read over the document. I rose and snatched it from his hands, my eyes scanning the paper with disbelief.
“I never signed this!” I said.
Cain only smiled, “You don't remember, darling; you signed it when we just got married.” He replied. “But there is no need to worry; what is mine is yours.”
My body was trembling as I stared at the bottom of the page to see my signature. I remember Cain giving me some documents to sign a year ago but I was so in love with him I didn't even think of reading them.
This was their ultimate plan—to strip me of everything till I had nothing. My mind went back to the day I married Cain.
James and I were in love and then he didn't show up to the wedding and Cain stepped in. My stepmother kept pushing me to marry him immediately.
I never questioned why James didn't show up when he loved me so much. But now nothing was making sense.
I was silent during the ride with him, my mind playing everything all over again till I couldn't think straight.
