Marry Him At The Age Of Eighteen

She was facing the mirror now, lost in thought. Today is her wedding day with Elijah. It's not a grand affair—no wedding gown, not in a church, no venue for the wedding reception, and most importantly, no guests except for their respective families.

She requested that her parents not let her and Elijah get married in a church; she preferred to get married just at the judge's office and without anyone knowing that they were getting married. It's because it's unavoidable for people not to pry into why she and Elijah were getting married, and in people's minds, it's like they're making up their own story about why they're getting married, so it's better to just keep quiet. After all, the reason they're getting married is because of a mistake, but she couldn't help but cry before that day because she never thought that her brother's friend would do such a thing to her, but she couldn't do anything about it now because everything had already happened and now she would be tied to the guy.

There was a knock on the door, so she stood up and opened it. It was her mother. Her mother looked her up and down.

"Why aren't you dressed yet? We'll be leaving in a few hours."

"I'll just wear a dress, so it's okay to do it later."

"You haven't even started putting on your makeup, and your hair isn't styled either. I thought you had it under control, so I didn't hire a stylist for you."

She smiled faintly before returning to her vanity mirror. Her mother entered and stopped behind her while they faced each other in the mirror.

"Are you mad at me, your dad, and your brother?" She shook her head. "I know it's too early for you to get married. I wanted you to be 25 years old when you got married, but it seems like not everything is according to what I want, and besides, I don't control what happens to you."

Her mother took the comb. She was the one who fixed her hair, just tying it up and dropping a few strands in front of her face. She also did her makeup because it's just light makeup anyway; there's no need to beautify much because their wedding is simple.

"There, my only daughter is really beautiful." Her mother smiled. "But what I want is that even if your marriage with Elijah is just an arranged one, you'll still serve him as his wife, Charlotte."

How could she do that if she doesn't know how? She's busy with school, and he's busy with his company, so how? Maybe the only special thing she could contribute is not being rude and speaking to Elijah politely, even if she doesn't want to see him every time she comes home. Once their wedding is over today, they'll go straight to Elijah's house. There's also a simple feast there, and that's where she'll live; even her belongings are in the
