“This marriage is null and void! The wedding of Dan Miller and Lucia Ray is null and void.” A man from behind shouted as he stepped into the entrance of the church, breathing heavily, just as the priest was about to pronounce Dan and Lucia ‘husband and wife’.
Dan Miller, the CEO of Miller's Production Enterprise, hurriedly planned a wedding with his fiance, Lucia Ray, whom they've dated for only two months. His plan was to outsmart his father, who had signed a contract with his friend, Dantes.
The moment young Miller set an eye on those papers, he had been looking for a way to do a surprise wedding without his father's consent.
“Never! Over my dead body would I forcefully marry the daughter of my father's debtor! I can never marry someone who is not my standard.” He thought to himself.
 
He was at the altar with his bride, taking their marriage vows, when his father, Mr. Morgan Miller, who was out of the country for a six-month business trip, showed up unexpectedly and put the wedding to a halt.

"Dan, please, I just need one two minutes of your time," Clara asked politely, with the expression of regret written all over her face.

"Two minutes." Dan emphasized and let her in.

"Yes, Dan. Just 120 seconds and nothing more. I promise."

"You can come in." He let her in with a disgruntled face.

"Dan, please, your absence is weighing me down. We can't be in the same house yet; avoid talking with each other and also sleep in different rooms. We're married, and this is not right." Clara explained in a trembling voice as she saw the gloomy expression on Dan's face.

"Damn it! Clara. At first, I thought I was the one destroying the marriage, and I changed my ways the moment I realized that loving you was part of my responsibilities, but..."
