68M I R A N D ABen is now stabilized and he is sleeping peacefully on top of his hospital bed. It almost gave me a heart attack when I saw Ben having trouble breathing a while ago and maybe because I knew he has asthma plus his TBI would definitely make it worse even though he has been going through therapy.Landon hasn't left Ben's side and he hasn't talked to me since we got here, even though he keeps holding me tight around his arms. I know he's still bothered about what happened and he is as worried as I am.I grab a chair and sat next to Landon. He looks a little too serious but he smiles at me ruefully as I placed my head over his shoulder. "The doctor said Ben's fine." I say.I hear him sighing heavily. "It's because of me." Landon blames himself."It's not." I tried to get his mind off of it.I know he is blaming himself for what happened but I wouldn't want him to. What happened was an accident and I was careless enough to forget that Ben had TBI."Dosa is made of wheat lik
69M I R A N D AParis and Scarlet threw a massive bachelorette party which was a lot of fun. There were almost half naked men dancing and grinding around the room that Paris and Scarlet rented for the night. The songs that they played were too erotic and sexual and Vivian kept squealing when she saw the strippers taking off a piece from their clothing.It was crazy fun.Landon said he enjoyed his bachelor's party on that same night too. I'd worry when I think about sexy women doing what these hot men are doing before us. But then Landon is such an honest and faithful man because he would call up on my phone to check on me on what's going on with the party in the middle of his own bachelor party.I never actually thought I'd get to be walking down the aisle while my soon to be husband waits for me before the altar. It’s a dream come true.I never thought that marrying Landon Thompson would happen in reality. I'd used to daydream about it a lot and now it's really happening.There is n
70H U G O The moment they said each other's vows, I knew what she felt for Landon is real. Those words they said to each other were beyond perfect. I haven't been this jealous ever since and I feel the need of running out of the church to scream it all out from my chest because I am really hurt. I don't like what I'm feeling while watching them exchanging vows and everyone is crying for Landon and Rose because of joy but here I am acting stiff and emotionless but dying inside while I watch the woman I love getting married to my best friend.The way they looked at each other. The way they smiled at each other. The way they were so romantic over exchanging their vows and how they said it with love behind their eyes. The people around were even moved, Paris and Scarlet were even crying too. Most of the guests did, even the photographer's assistant cried.But I didn't.I wanted to cry but for another reason.That Rose will never be mine.Never. Ever."You may now kiss the bride." The pr
71My heart leaps."She's the kind of rose that I would want to see first thing in the morning in my garden. Always blooming and beautiful. You're damn lucky to have her and she's lucky to have you too." He adds.My tears were uncontrollably filling my eyes."Congratulations once again." Hugo smiles and everyone began clapping.Don't fall.Tears, don't fail me now.Don't fall.Please.But I failed. They're creeping out from the corners of my eyes.Damn it Hugo Saintclare.Suddenly, from the corner of my eyes I noticed that someone handed Landon a microphone and he quickly got it with his hands."Wow lads." Landon chimes while chuckling softly. "You moved me. I didn't know you had words like that for me." He jokes.I chuckle as I wipe my tears and I hear laughter from the guests too while the other men before me were smiling as well. But as I was looking at Hugo, he was looking at me with his brows meeting at the center of his forehead. His soft lips were pursed together and he would f
PROLOGUEAudrey is crying on the couch while she covers her face with her hands. He is sitting right across her and watching her crying her heart out but he didn't care. Audrey pulls her head up to him with her tears wetting her cheeks."You promised me Audrey." He says firm.He isn't bothered about her tears, he is hard as a rock and he does not care about emotions anymore. He knows pretty damn well that she acts her way out of trouble and he's gotten a hold of it for years now. He's used to seeing Audrey getting what she wants and she knows she can't deceive him but at least she tried to. He knows she's spoiled. He knows too damn well that he needs to trim down those devilish long horns above her head and he can do it because he can manipulate her for he knows all her dirty secrets."I know I promised you!" She yells."But it's taking so long!" He yells back.She's scared. She knows he's capable of everything when he wants to do something. She knows damn well that he is willing to k
CHAPTER 1H U G OI could hold his face with my huge hand and his eyes looks so adorable as it were about to close. I wish he'd finally go to sleep. I've been carrying him for almost two hours now. My arms are aching and whenever I put him down on top of his little mattress, he ends up opening his eyes again. And whenever I sit down, he cries loud so basically I've been standing here to put him to sleep and he still isn't.I gently sway him around.Hum him some songs I know.Tap his little bum covered in his diapers.Then sway him a little bit more.I have so many papers needed to be read and to be signed but he's consuming all my time. The nannies can't even put him to sleep which ended him in massive loud cries. So I volunteered to put Alex to sleep and I ended up with my loads of work left undone.I gazed at the clock and it was already midnight. It's getting pretty late and I wonder where Audrey is. She said she was out to meet a friend and she's been out for too long.I reached f
CHAPTER 2HUGO"Are you fucking serious right now?!" She begins to yell a little louder.I slammed my laptop close as I respond, "I looked through the wedding photos that Ned sent me.""Oh yeah of course! You did! You actually did and you fucking literally zoomed into Miranda's face?!" She screams."Alex is sleeping." I grit my teeth."Fuck that baby. I don't care." She spits at me.I gaped in surprise at her words,. "Do you even hear yourself? You're the mother to that child!""I don't care about that now!” She screams at my face. “All that matters now is the fact that you are staring into Miranda’s photos?! I'm mad you!""Oh come on Audrey! You don’t have to make this a big deal when I should be the one who needs to be mad at you right now. You come home late as if you don’t have any responsibilities to your child. You went out drinking and you come here throwing a fit at me!?" I raged.She scoffs sarcastically, "That's not the point here Hugo!""It is Audrey! It fucking is." I rant
CHAPTER 3M I R A N D A"How was the honeymoon?" Aunt Jo asked.Landon and I were having dinner together with his entire family in a special restaurant where we reserved a VIP room for all of us. I was worried when I arrived because I know Charlotte is here and I still find it difficult to actually talk to her. She still scares me even though I know that she's learned to accept me for Landon."You've both been gone for one month. I bet the places you've been to were marvelous." Felicitè commented and smiled at me."It was. Purely fantastic, wasn't it love?" Landon asked me while he forks his steak into his month."Yes. I was completely in awe. Dubai got me pretty badly. Still haven't gotten over it that’s for sure." I commented with a smile."We should go and do shopping at Dubai together, Randy." Charlotte blurted.I could tell that aunt Jo and her husband were surprised and so did Landon. I quickly smiled at her, happily, and I was too joyful that she wanted to go to Dubai and do s
