The Billionaire's Chosen Bride

Arriving in AJ City, Nancy frowned as she didn't understand why her parents had asked her to return home. She was studying in City X, and after she had graduated with a business administration degree. Her father told her, "Nancy, I want you to return home and not stay in City X." Nancy frowned during the phone call with her father. She knew that her father was a politician in AJ City, and she couldn't go against his orders. So she arrived at the airport at exactly 2 PM, and her father's men were already there, waiting to escort her home. "Welcome home, Nancy," her elder adopted brother, Matthew Marlon, smiled at her, but Nancy frowned as she walked with him to the car. She sat in the backseat and knew that the city was ruled by the popular President Nolan Alejandro and his family, as the city was named after the Alejandro family. They had been ruling for years, and any opposition party that tried to challenge them was immediately silenced. Nancy watched the road as Matthew started the car engine and drove out from the airport. Her eyes fell on the gigantic billboard displaying the city president's photos. "Hmm..." Nancy hummed, and she saw Matthew smiling at her through the rearview mirror. She ignored smiling back, as she continued to wonder why her parents had insisted that she must return home. Arriving home, the security men at her father's mansion gate pulled the huge black gate open for them. Nancy watched as Matthew drove his black exotic SUV into the premises and parked. She saw her parents standing at the mansion's entrance, with her mother wearing a red gown and her father in a black suit, as the maids also stood behind her parents in their blue uniforms. Nancy stepped down from the car and walked up to the mansion's entrance to meet her parents. She wore a red top and black trousers with black high-heeled shoes. Nancy finally approached the mansion's entrance, and her mother warmly welcomed her, "Welcome home, my beautiful angel." "Good afternoon, Mom, Dad," Nancy smiled as she hugged her mother, and her father said, "Welcome home, Nancy. It's good to have you back with us." "Thanks, Dad," Nancy replied as she walked up to hugged her father, and the maids said, "Welcome home, Nancy." "Thank you all," Nancy smiled at the maids, and her mother said, "Let's all go inside." "Okay, Mom," Nancy replied and then followed her mother into the living room. Nancy saw that their living room hadn't changed. It was still painted in white and had beautiful flower vases around. She walked up to a black couch in the living room, as the room had seven black couches. "Home, sweet home," she whispered as she sat on one of the black couches. She saw her mother standing in the center of the living room and smiling at her sweetly. "Mom, what's the good news? You look so excited to see me," Nancy asked, curious to know the reason behind her mother's bright smile. Her mother, at the age of 51, still looked under 40, a true epitome of beauty and charm. Mrs. Olivia Marlon smiled and sat down on the black couch behind her. She replied, "Why wouldn't I be excited to see you, Nancy? You've changed, and you look so beautiful now compared to when you left the city five years ago." "Thanks, Mom, but I'm still the same," Nancy replied, smiling sweetly at her mother. She knew her mother was right, as she had transformed since leaving the city five years ago to further her studies abroad. Her bust had grown larger, her hips wider, and she was now a sexy, charming young lady. Nancy knew that many people who passed by would pause and stare, captivated by her adorable appearance. She also knew that her mother loved calling her an "angel" because of her pointed nose, blue sparkling eyes, and long golden hair, her most attractive features. "Mom, I need to go upstairs now and freshen up. Then I'll come back downstairs to join you and Dad for dinner," Nancy said as she rose from the couch. "Okay, my dear," Mrs. Olivia Marlon replied, unable to stop admiring her daughter. She thought about telling Nancy about the arranged marriage with the president's son, but decided to wait. Nancy smiled and walked upstairs to her bedroom. Approaching the door, she pushed it open and entered her room. She saw that her room hadn't changed, still painted in pink with beautiful flower vases around. Nancy walked up to her room window, pulled the curtains open, and stared out at her surroundings. She saw three black cars had arrived, and they drove into her father's mansion and parked. Nancy saw two men in black suits step out of the car at the back, and they approached the front car and opened the door. A man in a black suit and red shirt stepped out, and their eyes met briefly before Nancy quickly looked away and shut the curtains. She walked back to her bathroom, stripped off her clothes, and decided to take a bath before going back downstairs to join her parents for dinner. A few minutes later, Nancy stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in a long white towel, and walked to her bed to apply body lotion. She missed her family when she was abroad, and she decided to search for a new job in AJ City since she was already home and wouldn't be returning to City X anytime soon. As she sat on her bed and applied the lotion, Nancy turned on the television and saw the videos of the city's President being displayed. Increasing the volume, Nancy heard the reporter say, "Good evening, citizens of AJ Country. I bring you the 4 PM news that President Nolan Alejandro has just won the recent election, scoring over the highest votes." Nancy frowned, disliking the Alejandro family. She immediately switched off the television, knowing that the Alejandro family had been ruling the city for a long time and didn't want another family to take over. She knew that her father was also a politician, working under the AJ Political party group, but she sighed, deciding not to worry about politics. She didn't like the luxurious lifestyle her family lived and wanted a simple life for herself, her future husband, and their children. She also disliked the constant security presence following her around since her return to the city. After finishing applying the lotion, Nancy stood up and searched her closet for a dress to wear. She took out a short brown gown that hugged her figure, emphasizing her hips and shape. Smiling, Nancy walked back to her room mirror, holding the white towel to dry and comb her long, golden hair. If only she knew the reason her parents had insisted she return home, she wouldn't be here.
