Drake's POV 
                          
"What?! What do you mean we still have to be together?!" Sofia said almost screaming. She can't believe what the lawyer just said and neither do I.  
                          
This is our first day as newlyweds and here she is wanting to apply  for an annulment. 
                          
She called me this morning to ask me to come with her and meet with our lawyer, Ms. Kim. 
                          
"Yes, My Dear. And it's for six months. Six months as a couple before you'll be allowed to submit one of these." Ms. Kim explained raising the annulment papers. I can't stop myself from smiling. 
                          
"No..no this can't be. There must be an other way to void that contract! I did what you've asked! I've married him! Just end this now!" Sofia was starting to loose her wits. She's freaking out and it's too painful to watch. This just show how much she hates being with me. 
                          
Ms. Kim slowly shake her head disapprovingly. 
                          
"Sadly, Ms. Bae. There's no other choice. You'll need to do this or else you won't receive your inheritance and the Kims won't get the money to save their company." she added. I look at Sofia. She look so devastated by hearing the news. 
                          
"Wait, didn't you read your contract well before signing on it?" i asked Sofia. She sighed. Well I guess she didn't. Aigoo.
                          
"Yeah right. Fine, I lose. So what else do you want me to do next?! Live with him under one single room?!" Sofia exclaimed. disappointment was writen all over her right now. 
                          
"Uhm. I was about to say that." Sofia look more shock hearing the response of Ms. Kim. 
                          
"What?!"sofia
                          
"And in addition, your father built a house for you two to live in after the wedding." ms. Kim said. What?! I was switch glancing from Ms. kim to Sofia then to Sofia and back at Ms
Kim.
                          
First of all, I wasn't informed about that contract. Second, since I wasn't been informed then ofcourse I HAVEN'T READ IT AND THAT I COMPLETELY HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT WHAT EVER IT IS THAT WAS WRITEN THERE. How am I suppose to understand them now?

                          
"What?! For the two of us to liv--"it looks like Sofia was about to butt in and disagree but Ms. Kim didn't let her and continued.
                          
"And it was designed by your mother herself as her wedding gift for you, Sofia." Sofia's eyes widen. Her shock eyes eventually showed sadness. She misses them so much. 
                          
"They..they did that--"sofia was lost on her thoughts. 
                          
Ms. Kim nodded. 
"They both build that house for you Sofia. And they were the ones who chosed Mr. Kim to be your husband too. They can easily pull out from that contract if they didn't like Mr. Drake or seen him unworthy of you but it seems like they've seen something with Mr. Drake that's why they continued the contract. " Sofia look down. 
Tears are now falling down on her palms resting on her lap. She's crying. Again. 
                          
I reach for her hand and squeeze it. That made her look at me. 
                          
It was the longest stare she had given me. I can't stop myself from feeling uneasy. My heart is pounding really fast just by her looking at me. 
                          
"So.." Ms. Kim interrupted. 
                          
We both look at her. She was smiling. "Wanna take a look at your new house?" she excitedly asked.

I was the last one to get inside the house. I was really amused by what I am seeing now. This is going to be our house. 

                          
"No way!" i said as I saw the house interior. These is a beautiful two-story house.

                          
"I know Mr. Kim. Mrs. Bae was a very brilliant interior designer. " Ms. Kim said. I look around. So her mom was a interior designer? And I remember her father was an Engineer. Woah! What a great match.
