Katherine followed Gavin upstairs as he led her through the hallway. On each side of the wall were great pieces of art. It was so beautiful that it almost looked like an exhibit.Katherine smiled for the first time in a long while, she really loves art, and at this moment her painful thoughts disappear, although it was brief, it was worth it, seeing this was worth it.The door by the left of the hallway was pushed open by Gavin and he walked in rolling Katherine’s luggage.Katherine stepped on and her eyes dilated at the room, her lips parted and she glanced around. It was the best bedroom she has ever set foot in, even the hotel she went to with her mother while on vacation which she thought was the best didn’t match this one."This will be your room until the wedding," Gavin told her after waiting for some minutes, he had seen her admiring the place and didn’t want to interrupt, whereas, he had been like this the first day he stepped into this house.Katherine nodded. "Huh?" She qui
Celeb walked into the living room, his mother was sewing a flower table cloth and his father was reading a daily newspaper, the sight he has just seen annoyed him, everyone was acting so normal this morning like nothing has happened last night it was annoying to watch them like this.“This is just so wrong.” His forehead creased and both Rita and Jonas looked up at him as he approached them.“What do you mean, Celeb, if you are hungry then go heat the meal in the fridge, we still have some, later today I will go grocery shopping and you will have to accompany me, I will also get some nice outfit for you---““Not that Mom!” He almost shouted making Rita shudder. “Don’t you all think something… no, someone is missing here?” He glanced at the living room and so did Rita.“Yes, I know Vivian is not here, she will be coming home next week, I will have to clean up her room later today…” She drew a soft breath. “I have lots of work to do today,” She glanced at the table cloth she was sewing.
The butler walked through the hallway of the big mansion with a man behind him, the man was wearing a black well tailored suit, his hair curled backwards and his beards neatly trimmed, his expression hard, and no smile on his face, and holding in his hand was a brown envelope.The butler arrived at the entrance of a huge door and knocked on it. “Come in!” He heard the soft voice from inside the mansion and the butler pushed the door open and walked in.“Mrs. President, Mr. Henry is here to see you.” He said and made way for the man behind him to walk forward.“Jane Swift!” Henry called out in a soft voice and she turned around from the window she stood with a glass of wine, and a smile the butler has never seen in his life flashed through Jane’s lips.“Henry, it’s so good to have you here.” She walked over and leaned forwards and he kissed her cheek, then she glanced at the butler. “You may leave.” He told him and he nodded, glancing at them once more before leaving.“You look so good
Celeb pulled his car over at the parking lot of Marcus's apartment, he didn't care about coming here to speak to Vivian.He had called Katherine and had been worried about her since she hasn't picked up ever since she left their apartment, so he called Vivian, she also didn't pick up, that was the reason he was here.He knew where Vivian was, but didn't know where Katherine was taken to, or if she was in trouble, or doing okay.He stepped out of the car and looked at Marcus' apartment with a frown on his face. His only reason for coming here was to get information from Vivian since his parents were not ready to release any information to him.He walked over to the door and rang the doorbell, then he waited for a response from the cake after two minutes.The door was opened and Vivian's first reaction was to blink her eyes in shock to see Celeb standing there."Celeb?" Her lips parted, her brother didn't like Marcus, and he had never come to this place before. How he got the address of
Katherine had always enjoyed taking care of herself, whether it be through a regular skincare routine or experimenting with different hairstyles when her parent was alive, but those were the least thoughts that crossed her mind the past few days.She lost her parents, her home, and the company and was left with no cash, who has anything to worry about that now, not until Gavin told her they have somewhere to stop by?She was surprised when they arrived at a trendy beauty salon after a long drive from the apartment she was sent to.Although she didn't want to be happy about this, she couldn't help her excitement, she has lots of dreams, of coming to such a beauty salon, but her late parents were not as wealthy as the Swift.Gavin, on the other hand, was determined to help her look her best, it was her wedding tomorrow and he was carrying out Mrs. Swift's orders. He had also noticed the recent stress has taking a toll on Katherine's complexion and felt this was something that would hel
Katherine walked towards her bedroom after eating dinner, Gavin walked next to her with a few other maids behind her.She glanced out into the midnight sky to see the full moon rising, but shortly it was covered by clouds, her heart was heavy so she heaved a sigh and looked forward again.Gavin gazed at her, he could tell she was anxious, he knew how hard it was on the night of a wedding, and how lonely it would be for her, not being with any family member."It's okay to be nervous." He said, breaking the silence and she turned her eyes to look at him, the corner of her brows slightly raised. "My wife said she also felt this way when she was getting married to me." The corner of Gavin's lips spread with a smile.Katherine sucked her lower lips. "You have a wife?" This was the last thing she expected to hear, he seemed so young, although older than her, she was only twenty-one, but what surprised her most was the fact that he didn't leave here to be with his wife for the two days she
Katherine woke up on her wedding day with a knot in her stomach. Today was the day she was going to meet her future husband for the first time, a cold billionaire who she knew nothing about. She had been nervous for weeks, and now the day had finally arrived. She got out of bed and walked over to the door, pushing it open, she saw the maids waiting at the door and Gavin was there too, they immediately greeted her with smiles on their faces, but there was no smile on hers.She didn't want to worry about this day, but it was finally here, and now she couldn't chase the feelings that tighten her stomach."Allow the maids to help you out today, it is their last day serving you." He told her and she nodded, not that she had any choice to say no.Immediately, the maids walked into her room, preparing a warm bath for her, and picking out a dress for her.Katherine was surprised that they didn't bring her wedding dress for her, but just a casual outfit. She slipped into them and walked out o
Katherine's mind and heart already were against it but she couldn't take her eyes off him. As he walked down the aisle, she hoped that maybe, just maybe, they would click. But as soon as he stood next to her, she felt the coldness emanating from him. Although he has superseded everything she had heard about him, he didn't look horrible, he wasn't crippled too.Rather, he was handsome, too handsome for a man, she couldn't help but take a peek at him, but his face remained stoic, and he barely even looked at her.She swallowed hard, and despite her internal turmoil, Katherine mustered the courage to exchange vows with this stranger beside her. Her voice wavered as she parted her lips to say her vow to him. "I, Katherine Jonas." In order not to get caught, I have to take up the surname of Jonas rather than my father's name, Edward."Promised to honor and respect Alexander Swift, to build a life together through love and understanding, and to stay right by his side, forever." This was a
