Kamila's body stiffened after hearing the statement that left her in deep shock. She was called here to be asked to replace her cousin, who ran away before the wedding day. Kamila really did not expect it. Her head immediately became heavy. Of course, Kamila didn't want to! She shook her head.

"Sorry, Auntie. I can't do that." Kamila said softly that there was a fear she felt because she was talking to her mother's younger sister, who was quite selfish.

Marry him? Kamila hadn't even graduated from university yet, so how could she get married? She was also moonlighting to make ends meet. It was hard to express when she had to be her cousin's replacement bride.

If she wanted to get married, she would only marry someone Kamila truly loved. She did not have a sweet love story in the past, in the sense that she had not had a close relationship with a man other than a friend. Now her aunt was asking her to marry a stranger. That was absolutely impossible!

"I'm begging you." Miranda made a pleading face. She humbled herself to the point of kneeling before Kamila to get her niece to comply.

"The wedding is in two days. If you don't marry him, we will be put to death."

The woman said something frightening. Kamila reflexively shuddered, imagining herself already buried in the ground. But no. Kamila didn't want to die that quickly. However, Kamila did not want to marry a man she did not know. The girl thought of another way.

“Auntie, don't do this to me. Get up!" Kamila felt bad that her aunt was kneeling like that. Holding Miranda's shoulder, Kamila slowly helped her aunt stand up to sit on the chair again.

"Where is Vira now? Can't we find her again?" Kamila asked, very confused. The wedding was a big deal. How could she replace the bride? They should at least ask the groom if he is willing or not.

"Auntie doesn't know where she went. She ran away earlier when the maid wanted to give her food. Vira escaped through the window, and until now, the guards have been searching, but she hasn't been found. Her cell phone is also not active. It will be very difficult to find her, and the wedding is only two days away. We don't have much time left; you must take her place, Kamila!" Miranda recounted Vira's escape from home. It remained to ask Kamila to replace her cousin and marry the man.

“Auntie, we'll try to ask the police for help. I'm sure it won't be difficult. Vira will be found." Kamila thought of such a suggestion.

However, her aunt immediately denied it. "Do you think you have time? I told you, we don't have time! Meanwhile, to report the police about a missing person, it must be one twenty-four hours, right? That's why Aunty told you to marry him; preparations have already begun."

Kamila's lips trembled. She didn't know how to get out of this difficult position.

"I'm sorry, Aunt. I can't marry that man." Kamila hoped that Miranda would understand that she could not be forced. However, the order from Miranda was absolute; it could not be denied.

She was not asking in a nice way, but she seemed to be forcing and pressuring. Not accepting the refusal, Miranda snapped at her niece.

"You can't refuse, Kamila! Whether you want to or not, you have to marry that man!"

Miranda withdrew her hand from the girl. Kamila looked down, not daring to look at her aunt, who was overcome with emotion at the moment. The girl also hid the tears that were about to fall. She could only remain silent because it would cause more anger if Kamila spoke up.

"Just so you know! That man is the head of the biggest and most powerful mafia. He was also the richest man! However, he had a bad experience, being murdered two months ago.

Luckily, that man is still alive, but he's in a coma. Many doctors say that he may not be able to regain consciousness for the foreseeable future due to the severe head trauma caused by the incident, leaving many brain nerves damaged." Miranda explained this to Kamila.

“Auntie also told you one important thing. You only pretended to be married to him. When things calm down, Aunty will personally visit Mrs. Griselda and ask you to divorce," the woman continued.

Kamila looked at her aunt's face with a look of confusion. "Calm down; what does she mean?"

Miranda let out a long breath. "Their marriage has already been announced, and their family will be tarnished if this plan is canceled. The wedding was planned five months ago, but unfortunately, the man had a bad incident. The family still wants the wedding to go ahead," she said.

Kamila frowned in surprise. "But until now, he hasn't regained consciousness. Wouldn't it be strange if the invitations came, but the groom didn't attend the wedding because he hadn't regained consciousness? Besides, it's clear that the name on the invitation letter is Vira Jayanti, not Kamila Viona," she replied.

Miranda shook her head. "That's okay. Their families have already thought of that. The wedding will still take place. If it's canceled, it will certainly make them angry because they feel humiliated in front of many people. The news will spread about the failure of the wedding, especially since Vira ran away. As for the name, you can just admit that it's your name. Your faces are so similar, so they won't be suspicious."

Kamila massaged her forehead lightly, feeling even more dizzy. No wonder her cousin wanted to run away before the wedding; the man who was going to be her life partner was in a coma. If Vira really married him, she would live the life of a widow. Her cousin might not be able to stand that.

Moreover, the man comes from a mafia family. He must have had many violent brothers and sisters. Perhaps her in-laws are also cruel and stubborn. If she really becomes his wife, she might be bullied by his horrible family!
Then what about Kamila? Surely she would have the same fate. Suddenly forced to become a substitute bride for an unconscious man? This was completely beyond reason.

Kamila wondered how she would live the life of a husband and wife, but it was like she had no husband. Not to mention adapting to a mafia family. It would definitely be difficult, a little wrong, and could be shot immediately. Kamila imagined that negatively.
Kamila and Vira did have a ninety percent resemblance. That's how great it is.

Different wombs, not twins. Only Miranda and Kamila's mother were twins.

"But ...." Kamila wanted to refuse. Miranda's expression suddenly changed. She said in a firm manner, "You know about your mother's health condition. Auntie helped with the medical expenses before. Now it's time for you to return all the money you spent! If you don't help Aunty, you and your brother need to think of another way to pay for your mother's medical expenses."

Kamila did not expect that her aunt would suddenly turn around and use her mother as a weapon to threaten her! This left her dumbfounded for a moment. She looked at Miranda. At first, she was still trying to think that her aunt was sincere in helping. She didn't expect her aunt to have this plan in the first place!

"You must decide as soon as possible. Remember, your mother's life is in your hands now!"
