Stuck in a Brutal Mafia Marriage
Beginning(Revision)

The feeling of loneliness mixed with sadness as if throwing away the bright colors that surround Rachel's daily life. The cheerful color is replaced with a dark color that dominates now.

A sweet smile that could make anyone stunned was not seen again after Grace was taken away by strangers. Guilt continues to haunt her as the memory of her failure to protect Grace refuses to leave.

Not only that Rachel was inferior, reluctant to get along with people around. Not out of pride or picky friends. Rachel does not deserve to have friends. Grace's departure completely lost her confidence.

The longing grew as if killing him slowly. The time that should be spent working is wasted. Every night Rachel goes to a nightclub.

There Rachel buys alcohol, gets drunk, makes her guilt and longing disappear simultaneously. It is a moment, but it is enough to help lighten the burdensome burden of the heart at all times.

After the morning, Rachel sat pensively. Look at his black cell phone. I hope Grace calls and shows the news. But all of that is just a dream. No one was granted to make the girl suffer from mild depression.

Darion Caesar - the girl's father was worried to see the miserable state of his daughter. Rachel fell ill from consuming too much alcohol.

Therefore, Darion came to the city of London. Forcibly pick up Rachel and bring her back to Valencia. However, instead of Rachel's condition getting better it seems worse.

Every day Rachel shut herself in the room. Closing yourself, refusing to greet the sun. Darion let him go, not because he didn't care. Her daughter needs time to heal and rise from the slump.

It doesn't matter if the girl refuses to leave the house. The origin of all sorts of alcohols is no longer consumed as a form of inner pressure.

One Sunday, Rachel came out of the room with a suitcase filled with everyday clothes. His appearance looks chaotic, panda eyes circular widely on both eyelids. The dry lips that were originally a natural pink color are increasingly whitening.

The girl intends to wander, go abroad and visit tourist attractions. This time Rachel takes time alone, seeing the sights or visiting tourist attractions may be able to entertain as well as heal the wound. Not physical wounds but internal wounds.

The tightness as if Rachel felt non-stop. The girl did not let it drag on. Too strong, Rachel won't give up until she meets Grace.

Vacationing is just an excuse, which actually happens Rachel goes looking for Grace. Darion did not stop his steps. He even supported his only daughter's decision.

The half-century old man let Rachel set foot in the land of strangers without any care. On condition that Rachel should preach it at all times. Either by phone or by short message.

Armed with a black card given by the father. Rachel pulled her suitcase into the airport. Before that he waved his hand and gave a smile as he looked at the middle-aged man. It's like saying don't worry, everything's gonna be okay.

Darion who saw the smile suddenly froze. The feeling of happiness spread quickly throughout the entire part of his heart. The sweet smile that she had so longed for all this time she could finally see now. Darion returned the smile and waved until her daughter completely disappeared from sight.

...🍁🍁🍁🍁...

Various countries Rachel visited ranging from France, Italy, and America. Until he arrived here, one of the cities in America. Known as the sinful city, Las Vegas.

Many places of interest here, including the large casino that is clearly displayed in front of him now. Well, Rachel went to the biggest and most famous casino in Las Vegas. The casino belonged to his father's best friend, Dominic Abbey.

Gambling establishment, what was that girl doing there? certainly looking for fun, in contrast to those who make gambling tables as a livelihood.

Rachel likes to chat with the elderly who come to spend their old age with their peers by playing cards.

They often tell stories about their youth. Whether it was their first meeting with the wife, or the lifestyle of the people at that time. Excited, Rachel also felt nostalgic together.

...🍁🍁🍁🍁...

The sound of clapping sounds crisp, as people know Rachel managed to defeat the arrogant businessman in two rounds of the game.

Today Rachel came home with a bag full of millions of dollars of gambling proceeds. The money Rachel didn't use for personal gain. However, he shared it with some parlors and street beggars.

The way to get the money is wrong. But if it can be useful to others, why not. At least they can use the money to buy clothes or food and rent a decent place to live.

"Re, I'll take you!" a blonde-haired man approached and offered to drive him back to the hotel.

"No, I can do it myself. Anyway, the hotel I'm staying at is not far from this casino, Ken. Just take a taxi for ten minutes!" push Rachel smooth. That person is Kenzo Michelin, the friend Rachel met one week ago.

They were quite familiar, yet Rachel was still reluctant to ask for help from him for feeling unwell.

Inevitably, Kenzo let the tough girl go. He returns to play with his friends and lets Rachel go alone.

Too happy with her income this time, Rachel to the point of not paying attention to the road. Accidentally, Rachel hit someone's strapping chest to make him fall backward.

"Hey! if you use your eyes, don't wear a jidat!" rachel shouted annoyed.

Not getting an answer, making him raise his head. Curious, which arrogant person ignored his words.

"Hey you're mute, huh?" his gray eyes traced the person's face, the minimal lighting made it difficult to observe.

Reluctant to answer, the man continued his steps. Go leave Rachel without a word.

Upsetly ignored, Rachel took out a secondhand can and kicked it until it hit the man's wide back.

Fucking men! feel my vengeance. You don't know manners!

"Master isn't he-"

"Well, I know!"

She's the girl I've been betrothed to, my first love. You're making trouble for yourself, be prepared because it's not easy to escape my entanglement, feral cat!

The man resumed his steps followed by his assistant entering into his father's Casino which had been passed down to him.

...🍁🍁🍁🍁...

Two weeks in Las Vegas, Rachel packs clothes intending to go to visit New York City. After getting satisfaction here.

Miracles happen there. Rachel met a friend who was like a sister to her. Grace was in town. The happiness of the meeting made Rachel unceasingly grateful.

the girl helps Grace escape and settles in the city of Paris. With the help of her father, Rachel manages to create a fake identity and goes into hiding.

But all of that did not last long. Two years after the escape incident, precisely when Grace had a one-year-old boy. Damian found it. The man came and took Grace away.

Rachel lost a second time. Not stopping there, the rows of problems come in turn. Returning to Valencia was his biggest mistake.

His eyes were round, his breathing choked, upon hearing his father's shocking statement. Help regarding the fake identity must be paid at a high price.

A matchmaking that Rachel had to accept without any rejection made her blood rustle violently. Upset with Dominic acting as good as he can. His father asked Dominic Abbey for help. Damian only found them in two years.

"Darling, if you don't want to get married it doesn't matter. Daddy wasn't pushy, from the start it was daddy's fault for not hearing Dominic's request in exchange for the favor."

"What if Dominic's uncle comes after us, daddy knows he loves Kanaya aunty so much. Whatever the woman wants, it will be immediately obeyed. No exception to ask me to marry his son."

"We can live in the countryside far from their reach with a new identity and life!"

"Daddy mean run away?" ask Rachel.

"Yes!" darion's answer was brief.

Rachel let out a long breath, tired of having to run away whenever trouble came over. Just this once, Rachel wanted to face the matter.

"No dad, I'll accept this matchmaking. But let me see Uncle Dominic's son first!" rachel Pinta. His lips agreed, but his heart said no.

Hey she's not the same as Grace who's willing to sacrifice herself for family happiness. Rachel prefers the middle way, where neither side is harmed. Whether it's his father or himself.

When she meets the candidate later, Rachel will have the man refuse the arranged marriage. After all, which man would be willing to go with a buluk girl like her.

"Re, daddy didn't force. If you don't want to get married, just refuse their request. Daddy doesn't want you to live under pressure without happiness and well-being." somehow Rachel feels like her dad wants rejection.

Regardless of any reason, Rachel still insisted on facing this matter. He was tired of living on an endless run.

"No problem dad, I don't want daddy to live with the debt help that Uncle Dominic gave me when I was a kid! besides this matchmaking, hasn't it been set since I was born?" Darion stayed in place. Hearing her daughter's words made the feeling of guilt come without being invited.

Dominic does everything including leveraging the help and wealth that Darion is getting now to pressure Rachel into accepting the match.

"Dear, your mommy and Kanaya are the ones who set the match because Peter wants you. Daddy never thought, how can a child's joke be taken seriously by the two people."

"Kidna?"

"Well, when you were born, they came to visit with their 4-year-old son. Peter saw you in a wooden swing and said he wanted to marry you. Of course your mommy and Kanaya immediately agreed to marry you when you were grown up!" Rachel widened her eyes, again the woman became the main cause of her suffering.

"Ah, so that's why Kanaya's aunt wants to make me a daughter-in-law?" Darion nodded.

"Huh ridiculous once, then when can I meet her dad. And where? should I go to Las Vegas again?"

"No, they're gonna come here, son. You just have to wait. And again, think about this matter wisely. Daddy doesn't want you to regret it at the end. Once you get into the Abbey, it'll be hard for daddy to monitor or protect you!" obviously Darion, saying full of mystery made Rachel curious.

"Why dad?" rachel asked in surprise, seeing the sour face of her father made her curiosity even higher.

"You'll know later, baby!"
