We are now having a family dinner, together with the Zach, at a fancy restaurant and I keep glaring at Sylvester who’s sitting across me. Since mom brought out the topic about Cassandra earlier at lunch, he’s been pissing me off by pushing the idea of him dating Cassandra.I gave him death glares but he just smirked and wink like he’s teasing me.“The wedding will be in a week. It’s been postponed for so long, and finally it’s happening,” Cameron’s father said.“What difference would it bring? This ceremony is just for formality after all.” I turned to dad who didn’t even bother lifting his gaze when speaking. I wanted to say something but I just stopped and controlled myself.“I’m sure you’ll be the most gorgeous bride! I’m so excited to see you on your wedding gown, dear,” Cameron’s mom said, trying to brighten up the mood. I just smiled at her as I take a bite from my food.“Where are you two planning to go for honeymoon—” Cassandra wasn’t even done yet, but me and Cameron firmly s
“Cass!” “I’m holding you! You won’t fall. Just trust me.” “Aren’t we there yet?” “We are! Just few more steps!” Two days passed and today, the bachelors party and bridal shower are happening simultaneously. I’m blindfolded while Cassandra is assisting me. I actually said I don’t want this since I don’t really have friends to go with, but Cassandra won the argument. “We’re here!” “Can I take off the blindfold now?” “Yes!” I took it off and blinked for a few times. “Surprise!” When my vision was cleared, I looked around and saw Irene. “Irene? Why are you here?” “Same question. Why am I here? It’s not like I can decline the offer of the Cassandra Zach.” Cassandra pulled me and Irene closer. “What’s with you two? Aren’t you cousins? Both of you are the only female Harris, you should have been besties!” “Besties? Yeah, right. More like mortal enemies,” I said. “Come on! Forget the past and try to build a friendship! The three of us would be besties from now on!” “I can’t belie
I booked another room where Cassandra could sleep. After I put her to bed, I decided to take a stroll on the hotel to calm myself down. Irene really doesn’t know how to take a break. How could aunt Gianna have a daughter like her? She’ really too different compared to her mother. I walked out of the room, but I suddenly saw Cameron on the hallway. “Oh? Why are you here?” I asked when I approached him. Oh, gosh, seeing him doesn’t help me cool down from my desires. “The bachelors party was being held there.” He points at the room on the other end of the hallway. “How about you? Is the bridal shower also held here?” “Yeah, it’s right there.” I pointed out the room. There was an awkward silence between us for a few seconds. Why is it so awkward? Oh gosh, why is it so hot in here? “Cassandra is sleeping inside this room. She passed out.” “Are you drunk?” “No, I’m just tipsy but I’m still at my right state of mind.” “Why did you leave the bridal shower?” “U-Uh, it’s getting messy i
“So, I was right... there were girls in the party,” I said as I take a bite from my salmon.“I don’t know if Cameron was loyal or was afraid to get punched by your brothers. He didn’t even lay his eyes on the girls,” Kevin jokingly said. “Sylvester didn’t even last five minutes in stopping his urges.”“That’s why I left the room. Good thing I did,” Cameron said and winked at me which made me blush.“I wasn’t even the one who hired those girls. Sylvester really hired them for his self,” Stefano said.“Why? What about you?” I asked.“I left the room after Cameron. I even saw the two of you kissing while entering the room. Then I booked another room for myself and just slept.”“Boring,” Sylvester said while shaking his head.“What about Skyler?! Did you let my baby see that?!”“Baby? He’s old enough to make a baby!” Irene said. I glared at her but she just smiled sarcastically.“I didn’t even get to see the girls arrive. I had to leave to record a song for my upcoming album. I just retur
It’s been two hours, and I am now done preparing. I am wearing my bridal gown, tiara with the veil, and the shoes my brothers gave me. I still can’t believe they spent that kind of money for these shoes.I am just waiting inside the hotel room until it’s time to leave. I am holding my flower bouquet and I kept looking at the mirror, making sure that everything is perfect.Nothing can go wrong today so I keep checking even the smallest details on my overall look.Five minutes later, one of my bodyguards came in.“Miss, it’s time to leave the hotel.” I took a deep breath and one last look on the mirror before walking towards the door.There’s a barrier, made out of cloth with poles carried by my bodyguards, to protect and cover me from the media.There’s a lot of reporters and paparazzi all over the hotel, waiting to take photos of me and my wedding look. We decided that no photos shall spread on the internet before I enter the cathedral. We can’t really control all people so we just de
We are now inside the van on the way to the hotel, and I still feel anxious for unknown reasons. Why do I keep feeling that something bad would happen anytime?“Babe, are you okay?” Cameron asked me as he holds my hand. I turned to him and smiled.“I am okay. Don’t worry.”“Are you sure? You look anxious.”“I am okay. Don’t worry about me.” I tried to calm myself down and change the topic. “Look at my shoes. My brothers gifted it to me earlier. Do you know how much this is? It’s more or less fifty-million! They bought it from an auction! I still can’t believe they did that.”“Really? Well, I can’t blame them. They would, of course, prepare the best gift for their only and older sister. Fifty-million is a just a cent for them compared on how much they love you.”“Love me? Tsk, they could have just given me a simple designer shoes and I would still appreciate it. They literally participated in an auction just for the shoes.”“Fifty-million is still cheap considering it’s from an auction
It’s been about three hours and we are still outside the operating room, when suddenly a nurse came out rushing. He stopped and bowed for a bit when he saw us and left running.“Oh dear, heavens, what’s happening to my daughter?”Seeing the nurse rushing out made me more anxious. I just hugged Via, who’s still sleeping, tighter.An hour later, the doctor finally came out.“How’s my wife? Is she okay?”“Your wife had a cardiac arrest earlier, but she is now stable. She was at a critical stage earlier due to blood lost, but we manage to save her just in time. However, we still need to monitor her vitals as she could have a cardiac arrest again anytime. We’ll transfer her to the Intensive Care Unit for further monitoring.” The doctor left and I just sighed. In shorter context, Savannah is still not out of danger. She’s basically at the death’s door given that anything could happen to her anytime.“Cassandra,” I called out my sister as I face her. “Tighten the security inside and outside
It’s been two days, and my wife is still unconscious. She’s still at the ICU and being monitored. Today, I have to attend a meeting. As much as I want to stay by Savannah’s side, I also have responsibilities as the company’s CEO.“Sir, Cameron? Sir?” I got back to my senses when I heard my name being called. I sat up straight and awkwardly faked a coughed.“Sorry, what were you saying again?”“I was mentioning the target raise in revenue for this year. I was asking if the stated numbers are ideal or realistic to you, sir.”“Oh, uhm,” I scanned the document in my hands. “We should lower it by two percent. Also, I received the investment offered by CXX in Hawaii. I never heard this company before, but the investment price they mentioned is too high for me to assume that they are an unknown company.”“CXX is an underground company, illegal for short. It’s actually CVX but they changed it to CXX when they handed us their proposal. I found the name and proposal suspicious too, like you did
