The ceremony was followed by a grand reception, complete with an elaborate feast and a live band that played music late into the night.As the reception drew close, Jessica returned to the dressing room with the help of her maids of honor and she changed into a less formal outfit for the after-party. For a less formal but still stunning dress, Jessica wore an off-shoulder maxi dress in a light, airy fabric with a striking open-cut design and a high slit in the skirt. As for the colors, she didn't go against the color code as the clothes were Purple with peach-colored embroideries.Paired with this beautiful dress were subtle crystal pieces of jewelry and peach-colored pointed-toe T-strap heels to match. Her hair was rearranged into a loose updo giving her a chic effortless look that turned heads as she walked into the resort's garden which was the venue for the after-party. The garden was beautifully manicured with pristine lawns and the grandeur and opulence of the setting were st
After a long and beautiful wedding day, the newly wedded couple came back to their honeymoon suite. As they step through the door of their spacious honeymoon suite, they were immediately greeted with an inviting and cozy atmosphere. Soft, muted colors on the walls created a calming ambiance, while the sleek and modern furniture added a touch of elegance to the room. The plush king-sized bed in the center of the room beckoned to them with its fluffy duvet and sumptuous pillows.Along the wall opposite the bed stands a sleek, flat-screen TV, bordered by black lacquered shelves that hold a selection of books and magazines for their enjoyment. To the right of the TV, a long, low-slung table provided ample space for dining, with two comfortable chairs tucked neatly underneath.Even though it was dark outside, the windows that lined the opposite wall offered breathtaking views of the resort's lush, tropical gardens, along with a glimpse of the sparkling sea beyond. Sliding glass doors
"Jessica, you don't need to panic. It's nothing bad. She went into labor last night after the stress and was taken to the resort clinic. Your mom only went with them to help out since no family member of theirs is here." Cade explained, as he didn't like how his mother kept her in suspense. "Last night? Why didn't anyone tell me about it earlier?" Jessica asked curiously. "It was your wedding night for F*ck's sake! Stop complaining." Derek scolded her. "What were you going to do about it if you were informed earlier?" He asked angrily. "Well…Cruz is a doctor." She mumbled, making everyone laugh. "I'm a surgeon, not some gynecologist." Cruz replied. Jessica looked at him knowingly before whispering into his ear. "But you treated me earlier." "That was just a simple first aid. I'm sure Leah is in good hands. The resort has one of the finest sets of doctors. But honestly, were you willing to miss last night even when you couldn't do anything about it?" Cruz asked, also in whisper.
Jessica thought she knew what to expect until they arrived at the beautiful Kudadoo Resort Island in the Maldives. The small intimate resort island is located in the beautiful Lhaviyani Atoll of the Maldives and offers an exquisite experience with its pristine white beaches and crystal-clear turquoise lagoon.It was the perfect place gateway for them to unwind in its tranquil setting. They lodged at the overwater villas which had its own private terrace and pool. The villas are designed with a minimalist style, allowing for a simple yet elegant feel. The rooms are also fitted with modern amenities such as air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and Wi-Fi.The resort was known for its world-class service and hospitality as they offer a 24-hour butler service that guaranteed personalized service. She loved everything about the resort, especially its scenery, its private dinner variety of international dishes, and a la carte restaurant and bar serving exquisite cuisine.Since it was her fi
Cruz was surprised by Jessica's reaction and just couldn't understand why she was so mad at him. Anyways, he ran after her before she could walk a few meters and he grabbed her arm, pulling her back to face him. "Let go of me, Mr. Westham!" Jessica rolled her eyes. "Mrs. Westham, where exactly do you think you're wandering off to? Getting to the gate is already enough work, you don't plan to walk out of this estate, do you?" Cruz asked cunningly. By the mention of Mrs. Westham, it dawned on Jessica that they were now legally married, and walking out of a serious conversation won't solve anything. "Let go of my hand." She sighed knowing her anger won't hold out for long and Cruz eventually let go of her hand. "I know you're angry even though I don't know why but I can't let you walk out when we come in a car." Cruz attempted to convince Jessica but ended up provoking her even more."You don't…you don't even know why I'm angry? Huh, what was I even expecting." She smacked her lips
Early the next morning, Jessica woke up very early to the blaring sound of her alarm and washed up before attempting to leave the room but Cruz woke up just before she could leave. She looked very tired and sleepy yet she wasn't in bed. "Babe, why are you already up? Where are you going?" He asked as he roughly rubbed his palm against his face. "Cruz, I have you prepare breakfast. Dave would leave early with Cade and I don't want them to go hungry." She explained, rubbing her hand on her forehead. "Are you having a headache?" He asked as he picked up his shorts, wore them properly, and stepped down from the bed, keenly observing her. "Yeah. My head is burning up but I have to go and cook now. I used to wake up earlier than this before even without an alarm but these days, it's a lot harder for me." She explained. "Seriously, Jess? Why do you find pleasure in stressing yourself out? I hired those maids for a reason but you are adamant on not using their service. Do you think thin
"JESSICA!" Cruz yelled at the top of his voice as he brought out a shotgun and shot the dog who had just bitten Jessica's leg. He had taken the gun from the security room just beside the gate and before he could walk to where she was, a guard ran towards her and picked her up in bridal style. He helped her sit on the stairs of the house, her back relaxed on the walls of the house as he quickly tore off the hand of his suit and wrapped it around her injured leg. Jessica was beginning to regain her consciousness by then and could see the face of the man helping her. She was wearing a short dress and she noticed she wasn't sitting properly so she wrapped her arm around the guard's neck to gain his support but just then, Cruz walked up to them and angrily pushed him off before bending down to inspect her leg. He removed the torn suit from her leg and carried her into the house. Once they got to the living room, Cruz quickly brought out the first aid kit and dressed her wound. Then
"JESSICA!" Cruz yelled as he pushed down the weight and rushed towards her but Hayden already turned her around and was massaging her waist. Cruz was disgusted by Hayden's action but what he cared about was Jessica so he forcefully pulled her from Hayden's arms and rushed her outside the building. He placed her in his car and attempted to rush into the driver's seat but his chauffeur was holding the car key. "The car keys!" He yelled at him. "Sir, you're not allowed to drive. I will drive…" "Shut the fuck up and give me my car keys!" He scolded one more time and the chauffeur fearfully handed it to him. Cruz quickly drove Jessica to the estate's hospital while she moaned in pain. Hayden and two other bodyguards quickly took another car and followed them. Luckily, Jessica didn't sustain life-threatening injuries. An X-ray showed her bones weren't broken as well. The pain she felt was a result of the pressure and height she fell from so they treated her and admitted her to on
