Chapter # 21

Filled with extreme anxiety which evoked a sensation of contempt in me. In the midst of high status people who are ready to judge a low girl’s existence.

“This feels like a dream.” I whispered to Tyler.

Me, who was never in the eye of anyone is now the center of their discussion and the only thing they have to talk about is-

‘How can Tyler marry someone like me?’

“You are my dream.” He whispered back. Even though Tyler is a supportive husband, I still feel insecure.

I know I shouldn’t pay attention to the words of people but the shred of stupid dignity inside me is hurt by their words.

“I still cannot believe I am your wife.” I said shyly.

My distressed gaze looked around to see but then I felt a hand over mine. I raised my gaze and saw Tyler, “Me too.”

He said sincerely as we began to eat in silence while he was giving my hand an assuring squeeze.

My racing heartbeat gradually slowed down. A sudden wave of serenity washed over me.
