"How about your actions when you sexually h... Uhmm, I mean you harassed him?" "Harassed him? Me? When did I?" "You tore off his clothes and tried to take advantage of him... Should I remind you more?" Swallowing hard, she tilted her head to the right in embarrassment. 'Celeste. Oo, Celeste. What did you do? How come he is everywhere? If he is really the man I married then he is very dangerous, there's no way I will survive if I stay near him. Death won't be my only choice either, he might want to torture me like some criminal...' ***** A beautiful wedding dress, a simple ring and a tiara, with her family members present and with the man she loved always... Celeste Banks imagined such a wedding so many times but they say, we don't always get what we wish for. Finding her boyfriend cheating was not enough, she was forced to accept a marriage proposal from an old baldie. When Celeste finds out that it was a conspiracy against her to get married, she runs away from her wedding. To save herself from getting caught, she uses a mysterious man as a shield and not only that, she even rips apart his expensive black shirt then makes an escape only to end up as his bride. ***** "We were checking the cctv footage to find out about Mrs. Weston, then we saw that... That woman actually escaped before the wedding. We have got the surveillance footage of her escaping, she was already in the flight during the wedding." "Then the woman..." Celeste's voice resounded in his head as he remembered the time of the wedding, trying to imagine how she looked. "Who is the woman I got married to?"
View MoreDing! Heading out of the elevator absentmindedly, Celeste kept scrolling through the gallery of her phone, "I have taken a lot of shots but his face is not clear enough. With these photos, I won't be able to provide enough evidence, I need to collect some more. But how do I..."Beep!Celeste still focused on the phone screen walked in the room and the door shut behind her, the sound of the door closing hit her ears gently yet her focus remained consistent. Putting down the packages on the table, she casually looked around and suddenly she was taken aback. For a moment, her gazes shifted across the room before stopping on her phone. "I got so preoccupied with my phone that I didn't notice the time. It's already past 10 pm. I was supposed to spend time with him but I... There's no noise at all. Is he taking a shower?" With such thoughts lingering in her mind, Celeste headed towards his room. "Rhodes, are you inside?"Opening the door, she called out his name but the subtle darkness in
Her eyes enlarged in shock and her hands shuddered in restlessness, Xyria held onto her breath as she gazed at the person who was standing so close to her. As there came a heavy knock on the door again, her gazes quickly altered to the direction toward the door and they shifted back to the person to her nearest. "M...""Shhh! Don't make a sound, ok?" Before she could utter anything, the familiar voice asked her.Xyria nodded her head in agreement with her alarmed gazes fixated on him. The moment he let go of her, she rested her head against the wall and patted her chest as gently as she could without making any sound. The slow knock soon became aggressive knockings and he grabbed her hand restlessly. Taking a look around suddenly he started dragging her towards a room. Bewildered at his actions, Xyria gripped his hand and he paused at the track.As he turned in her direction, she asked, "What do we do now?" "I know that you are scared but please, don't worry. With me around, nobod
"Sir Atlas." Upon seeing her walk towards him, Atlas looked away in annoyance as he murmured, "There we go.""Where is Rhodes?" Celeste asked curiously, her gazes scanning the surroundings."How can I know where he is?""Huh? But I heard that you know where he is.""Who told you that?" A little annoyed, he inquired."That's not important. Anyway, where is he?" Since getting the same attitude from him for the past few months, it was not shocking for her to see him being annoyed most of the time. Celeste gazed at her wristwatch, anticipating his reply."I don't know." Saying so as he took a step forward, Celeste blocked his way. "Sir Atlas..""You heard me, I don't...""We both know the answer, don't we? So, you should just tell me the truth instead of playing childish here." Atlas gazed into the distance and cleared his throat. "Even if you know, what are you going to do about it? He is there for some important b...""That shouldn't be any of your concern, I will take care of it." Sh
Knock! "Come in." Tyler murmured some words mindlessly, his eyes glued to the computer screen. The creaking sound of the door opening reached his ears but he remained unbothered by the unexpected presence of the person in his office. "Put those on the table and take out the blue one. Make a copy of it then bring it to me.""Uhmm... " Hearing the female tone of voice, his gazes shifted at her and he looked a little taken aback. "Miss Lopez, why are you here?""I wanted to see you so..." Xyria answered, standing at a close distance from him."Ahh, I see. What's wrong? Why did you want to see me?""Well, I found a lead in my brother's case. I wanted to talk to... You about it but since... I don't have your number, I couldn't reach you that's why..." As she voiced so, her gazes moved across the room aimlessly.Tyler nodded his head in understanding and added, "That's great. What did you find?"That night, Tyler not only saved her brother from getting attacked but he also let that assass
Sneaking a peek at Rhodes while sitting next to him in the car, she let out a sigh of annoyance. Celeste managed to leave the cafe with him but as they got in the car, he remained silent and waiting for him to say something, she followed his actions as well. "Alright, I can't do this anymore." Celeste took a deep breath as she turned towards him. "Why did you go to the cafe?""To drink coffee."'As the CEO you can just tell anyone to bring it to you, why must you... '"If you wanted to drink coffee, why didn't you tell me? I would have brought it for you.""You are not my servant, why would I tell you about what I want to eat?"Upon hearing him say it with a straight face, she rolled her eyes in utter disbelief. 'Since I met you, if you have done something at an excessive amount then it should be how you kept bossing me around. Yeah, recently you don't do it like the past but it's certainly not because you have gotten gentler... I don't know why I feel like it was not a mere coincide
Staring right into his eyes without even blinking once, Celeste was about to grab his hand but suddenly someone grabbed her hand and pushed her backwards. "You... Who are you? Why are you meddling in?" Nathan blurted out while trying to pull away his hand, looking at the tall man standing in front of him. Surprised by the sudden presence of him, Celeste gazed at the veiny hand and in a swift, her gaze shifted to his back. "Rhodes, why are you here?""Let go of me! Who the hell are you?" Nathan continued getting away from him only in vain. "Look at these two, are they fighting over a woman? Who are they? Do you know them? Wait, isn't he looking a bit too familiar? I feel like I've seen that woman and man somewhere. Especially that sexy vampire-like facing features...""Oh, right. I think he... Right, he is Rhodes Weston. OMG, take photos. I never could imagine that someone as famous as him, I will get to see him one day. Oh my god, someone should hold me. I might faint..."The woman
