"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 More"Miss, you look so gorgeous. Your boyfriend won't be able to take his eyes off of you when he sees you."
Recalling what the store manager said when she was trying out the wedding dress, a bashful smile appeared on her face. Celeste Banks looked at her phone screen, her boyfriend Nathan and her photo was kept as the wallpaper. They looked so happy together while hugging each other. As the thought of seeing him crossed her mind, her ocean blue eyes sparkled. Standing in front of the door, Celeste smiled at the bouquet in her one hand and typed the password to open the door. She snuck a glance at the wall clock and put the bouquet on the table before heading towards the bedroom. It was merely two years ago when she turned 18 and gave her boyfriend the password to enter her house. Since then her boyfriend could come to see her without any hassle. Until now, Celeste couldn't hear any other sound except for her heartbeat since she was too excited. But as she reached closer to the bedroom, weird noises came in her ears. "Nathan said he would come back in the evening from his business trip. Can it be... Someone broke into my house and they are in the bedroom?" Without making a sound, she quickly picked up the broom near her hand and tiptoed towards the bedroom while holding onto the broom firmly. "Ahhh! Yeah. Yes!" The female voice coming from the bedroom came into her ears, Celeste's hands around the broom slightly loosened as she had a weird feeling about it. "Someone has surely broken in." Holding firmly on the broom, Celeste walked fast towards the door when the voice came out louder and her heart beat quickened with an ominous feeling. "Fvck! Do it rougher. Harder!" The female voice moaned and soon it was replaced by the familiar male voice, "How about this? Do you like that?" "Yes, baby. I love it so much. Ahhh! I'm cuming." Until now, she could think of all the other possibilities but the moment, that familiar voice spoke up... She felt her body becoming numb. Her hands felt heavier as she was about to touch the doorknob. "Nathan is in another region, it's not him. Something is... Someone else is... " Reassuring herself so, she pushed open the door and her eyes widened in sheer disbelief. The ground under her feet was as if swallowing her whole. Celeste stood there like a statue when she saw her very boyfriend whom she loved for the past 7 years was shoving his manhood in another woman's c*nt and they were kissing each other passionately. They were so busy with each other that they didn't notice her sudden appearance. As the broom suddenly dropped from her hand, the sound of it pulled their attention. Nathan whom she loved for all these years looked at her and a feeling of shock washed over him. He immediately pushed the woman under him away and grabbed his pants from the ground. For the first time ever, Celeste thought she was in some riding hag because the man she knew loved her more than he loved his family, how could a guy like him think of hurting her? But her judgement was proven wrong the moment she saw his face clearly. No, she was not dreaming. "Si-since how long are you doing this?" She asked him, her voice trembling and her eyes watery. The woman who was lying under him earlier shamelessly picked his shirt and putting it on, she asked lazily, "Is she the one you were talking about?" Nathan quickly rushed to Celeste, closing the door behind him he held her hand, "Celes, my love. When did you come back?" Those two words 'My love' used to sound sweet to her in the past but at the moment, they sounded so disgusting to her. Trying to hold onto the tears that were threatening to escape her eyes, Celeste asked with a heavy tone, "Who is she?" "She... She is my colleague, we were just doing a theory. It's... It's about..." She wanted to laugh loudly as she heard him, he still had the guts to lie on her face. Even though she saw him doing the most shameful thing, he was still lying to her. She couldn't believe he was the upright, loyal and warm-hearted man she loved all these years. "How long are you gonna lie to me? You were fvcking her, I saw it with my own eyes. How could you..." This time she couldn't hide her tears anymore, she cried like a baby, "How could you cheat on me? We have been together for 3 years, you said you loved me and we would get married." Nathan stood still, there was no trace of regret or whatsoever on his face. He looked strangely so calm as if he expected this and he even planned on how he would react. "He never loved you, look at you. You are so overdramatic. He is a man, so what if he slept with me? It's a natural thing, why are you crying over something so trivial?" The other woman in his shirt, stood at the door seductively as she asserted so. "She is right, Celes. I am a man, it's ok for a man to sleep with another woman. You know, I am loyal to you. I love you." Nathan smiled at her, that shameless smile made her feel so nauseous. "Yeah, don't be overdramatic. We didn't do anything bad, after we are done he will eventually go back to you." The woman walked to Nathan and touched his hand, smirking at him. "She understood it, let's go back to what we were doing." Seeing the two heading towards the bedroom, Celeste wiped the tears off her cheeks. It was her who fell in love with him first, she loved him for 4 years and thought she would keep her feelings a secret forever but then one day, somehow the whole school knew about her feelings for him. Nathan came running to her and said that he also loved her. Even knowing they were from different backgrounds and there could be difficulties she would have to go through if she wanted to be with him, Celeste agreed. She thought she could fight with anything if he stayed by her side, she found her prince charming but... "You two. Get out of my house right now." Celeste ordered, standing firmly on the spot. She had enough with his nonsense. "What did you say?" Nathan questioned as if he couldn't hear her. "Didn't you hear me? I want you two to leave my house. Right this moment." She stared at his eyes and ordered so with determination and hatred. Upon hearing her, Nathan chuckled. "It's you who is standing in my house. How dare you be so rude to the owner?" "Are you mad? It's my house, my grandmother gave it to me..." Celeste couldn't complete the sentence as Nathan tossed a paper towards her. "See it with your own eyes." Celeste read the papers carefully and the next minute, the paper dropped from her hand, "It... I didn't sign it by myself." She asserted, her voice screaming pure innocence. "Oh, don't lie. It doesn't suit you." "It must be you. You have done something to get my signature in these papers. It's my grandmother's house. There's no way, I would give it to you." Hearing her, Nathan chuckled and the woman did the same. "Keep crying but let me tell you, nothing will change even if you do it. This house is mine, I have a high-paying job and a lot of money when you have nothing at all. You are just some beggars whom I can save if you keep playing the good girl." The more Celeste watched him show his true color, the more disgusted she was at him. Her heart shattered in pieces, she thought he would at least be sad but he didn't even care. "I gave you shelter in my house, provided you with food and other necessities when you were abandoned. How could you do that to me?" "Well, when you proposed to me, I thought you were good to be fvcked. But look how boring you are. You never let me touch you. You are so annoying." Nathan gave her a scornful look and coldly said so. "I will sue you, you must have used some weird way to make me sign the papers." "Ahh, wait." Getting some cents from his wallet, he placed them on her hand. "You forgot that you need money to fight me. Here's some, now go ahead and do it." Those two laughed on her face and soon kicked her out, standing against the door Celeste looked at the cents in her hand and her eyes shed a river. "You son of a good mother! Open the door and come out. You wriggle-wiggle monkey! You bloodsucking motherducking jerkie!" Her heart ached so bad and she sat on the ground, hugging her knees. 'I am sorry, granny. I couldn't protect the only treasure you gave me, I don't even know how did he... ' Ring! Suddenly as her phone rang, she picked it up and a woman's crying tone of voice could be heard from this side of the call, "Celes, where are you? We are in big trouble. Come back now."Ding! 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
"Tell me, wanna be my mistress? If you agree, I will take pity on you and take you in." Nathan smirked at her, moving toward the back and his full attention cast on only her. Celeste stood there all silent and too disgusted to say anything. Looking at both of them, the woman pulled his hand shyly and muttered, "Babe."As if he was that one actor who is a tr@sh inside yet the male lead for every woman, Nathan's facial expression changed quickly the moment his gaze shifted to the woman standing behind him. "Yes, babe.""Uhmm, what is she saying? Do you perhaps... Know her?""Mr? No, no. Why would I know her?" Giving Celeste a look of mockery, he voiced in full spirit, "I don't know who she is.""Then, was she disturbing you? Why was she...""Yeah, you... Can say that. She was saying that she likes me and if I wanted to go on a date with her but I told her that I love you and I will never leave you for anyone." As Nathan voiced so, the woman gave Celeste an angry look before pulling his
"His bodyguards are not with him today, he has been alone most of the days.""How about his secretary? Or his lawyer?""They are not with him, it's a bit strange since he never goes out without them. Boss, the target is now heading towards the suburbs. Should we keep following them or take action?""As soon as he enters the tunnel, do it. Make sure to not let any evidence behind.""Yes, boss. Should we kill the woman also? Or do we take her to t..."Upon hearing about a woman involved with him, the man from the other side of the call asked curiously, "What is she doing with him?""She was with him the whole day, they seemed inseparable." The man driving the car replied, following Rhodes at full speed. Not getting any response from his boss, he questioned again, "Boss, what do we do?""Change the plan.""What?""Don't do anything until I order." With that as he hung up, one of the men in the car asked, "What did he say?""We need to step back.""Huh? But we have come this far, why now?
"La la la, mmm." Ring! Pausing on her track, Celeste gazed at the distance where Rhodes was seen sitting alone on a bench. She checked her phone and as the caller's name reflected on her phone screen, she put it back into her pocket.Day turned into night so fast that it felt like a magic. Unlike she thought, Rhodes didn't leave her hand and he didn't even complain that it was a crowded place. In the amusement park, they spent a day full of fun.Ring!Getting annoyed, as she picked up the call her mother's sobs could be heard from this side of the call. "My dear, Celes. Why didn't you pick up my calls? Have you forgotten your mother? Don't you miss me anymore?" Anya cried out.'There she goes. Let's see what drama she wants to play this time.'Celeste stared at the distance and let out a sigh of annoyance, "I was busy with work."For the second time, Anya saw her giving a cold shoulder. Though she didn't say it directly, it was as if she wanted to let her know that she was tired of
