ALEXAWe landed in Paris at noon the next day. We were supposed to arrive early, but there had been a slight delay.The most important thing now was that we were here.Cannon Dexter was waiting to drive us home.Home.I shuddered at the thought of going back to Mark’s house. Strangely, we hadn’t had that conversation the whole time. It just felt as though it was something we were both avoiding.With everything that had happened and our new journey of love, Mark and I knew that we couldn’t live separately anymore. Heck, I didn’t want to live in a different house from Mark.However, going to his house after all the memories that that house brought just made me feel a certain type of way, but I just couldn’t bring myself to complain about it to Mark. Of course, he couldn’t move into my dad’s house.Complaining would make me come off as insensitive and inconsiderate, especially with everything that Mark had done and spent lately.“I thought Noelle would be here to pick us up, with Ophelia

ALEXAIndeed, I wanted a dream wedding, but Mark gave me something that would last till eternity in my memory.The wedding was held in Versailles and a few persons flew in for it, but it was covered for the news. It was the best wedding to be held both in Versailles and Paris put together.I wore my mother’s wedding dress for the joining and the one Noelle had gifted me for the reception. I realized how grateful I was that I hadn’t worn either of them when I got married to Mark at that small church some months ago.Ophelia was with Lona the whole time, smiling toothlessly.“When she grows older, she is going to tell her friends in school that she was present at the wedding of her parents,” Mark has whispered into my ears when he saw that I was staring at her right from the altar.Apparently, he was also staring at her and feeling every emotion.“Or maybe she will get to tell her siblings first before her schoolmates,” I responded with a whisper of my own.The bans were being read, but

MARKBrent arrived a few minutes later, I spoke to him about what I wanted, and we swung into action immediately.Vector had to get back to business, leaving Brent and I alone.As for the prenuptial agreement, Brent already said that it was something he could amend without my presence. He would only have to send it to my mailbox for approval.“You have to get that done before the wedding, Brent. I don’t want anything left unattended to,” I told Brent.“I will,” Brent assured me.The wedding was already being anticipated by everyone, especially in Paris.The last time I flew in, bloggers and paparazzi had cornered me in the airport. I hadn’t even known how they knew I was flying in.They had wanted to congratulate me on the engagement and ask about the most talked-about wedding flying around at the moment, but I told them that it was holding in Versailles, and right after, Alexa and I would be flying to Greece for our honeymoon.They had been disappointed.They had thought that we woul

MARK“Wow, Vector, congratulations!” I said.It was my turn now to congratulate Vector. I was very happy for him, but at the same time, I was surprised.“Didn’t you both just get married about two months back?” I asked, still surprised.Vector’s excitement filled the elevator.“Yes, we did, but she doesn’t want to wait,” Vector said. “I have never seen anyone as eager to be a mum as Keisha,” he added.“Mm, I see,” I responded.We got to the top floor and the elevator opened. Then Vector and I walked over to my office.Reyna rose to her feet the moment she saw us.“Good morning, Mr. Mark. It is a delight to have you here today,” she greeted diligently. “Good morning, Mr. Vector,” she added.“Good morning, Reyna,” Vector responded with a nod.“There are some files I need you to have a look at, sir,” Reyna told me. “Would you like to take a look now?” She asked. “It is very important, and as much as I would have loved to tell you about it later, I don’t know how long you will be in Paris

MARK“Congratulations, man,” Vector said the moment I arrived at the airport.The proposal was a week ago and I needed to fly back to Paris to handle a few things. Now that Donald Shell was out of the way and the truth about Mona had come to light, coming back to Paris at intervals had become easy.Only Alexa wasn’t comfortable yet, and I had no intentions of forcing her.The most important thing was that the penthouse belonged to her now. I hadn’t been able to tell her about it or give her the papers to the house, and that was because she had Ophelia the day Shaw handed them to me.A lot of things had happened since then that had taken my mind off it, but thinking about it now, I would have to give it to her as a wedding gift.“It is all over the news here,” Vector added as we made our way to his car.Vector had insisted on picking me up and he came right before my plane landed.“It’s everywhere in Versailles,” I told Vector. “Now, a part of me is wishing that I didn’t go that far be

ALEXAMark slid the ring into my finger and it was a perfect fit. We both had rings from the church where we wedded months ago, but somehow, neither of us had been wearing it.The moment Mark slid the ring into my finger, something out of this world happened.I heard the sound of lights going up in the air. It was midday, but somehow, it was bright and evident.“Oh my, what was that?!” I reacted in shock.Mark rose to his feet, and together, we stared at the lights scattered in the sky, but that wasn’t all. An air-balloon, specifically designed for me, appeared in the sky and the words boldly written on it was bold and clear.“Alexa has agreed to marry Mark!”“Mark, this is the most beautiful proposal I have ever seen!” I gasped in astonishment.The air-balloon, illuminated by the flying lights, made it shiny and beautiful. Mark led me to the edge of the rooftop, and I dared to look down the tall buildings.Indeed, the whole display had made everyone to stop.Cars had parked, people h

Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her

Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along

Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and

Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili

Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus

Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli
