The soft hum of a piano echoed inside the Grand Cathedral of Dowel City, and Raelyn thought the melodies immediately brought her to a dreamlike state. Smoke machines quickly sent delicate clouds of mist across the floor, partly concealing her from the eager crowd of guests. As the piano’s melody deepened, a female singer began to voice the song’s lyrics, stirring emotions within her.~ “Remember the day our lips touched in the rain Fireworks through my veins, into my heart Remember the nights, dancing under the sky I got lost in the moonlight Found in your dark eyes” ~Dressed in white, Raelyn walked down the aisle, envisioning her young self and her dates with Charles. Yes, she remembered the fireworks, and even after reconnecting with Charles, those exciting feelings were still there.To Raelyn, Charles quickly captured her heart. Despite Calvin’s deception and her loss of memory, she still gave her love to only one person, the man standing meters away: Charles Eros. There was
“Please help us welcome, officially, Mr. and Mrs. Eros!” the host loudly announced from the stage of the Dowel Hotel Plus’ grand ballroom, and immediately, the lights dimmed. Behind the host, a live orchestra played a classical piece as the venue’s double doors opened. Charles and Raelyn entered with their arms linked, walking through a series of grand floral archways adorned with delicate fairy lights. As they strolled past each row of tables, they waved at friends, business partners, and colleagues, blowing kisses to their families. Raelyn saw many familiar faces. Most were Dowel Landmasters employees and Charles and Adrian’s business partners. The Bradfords and Zia were also present. Charles’ doctor attended while Ben and his men secured the venue. Of course, their honored guest, Kyle Wright, and his son were present. Kyle’s wife did not make it due to the risk of preterm labor. The Kings were at the frontmost tables. Riley kept blowing kisses their way, and the same could be sa
"Gentlemen, you are not allowed to use your actual voices. If you do, you will get disqualified," the emcee instructed the participating men. "Is that understood? Just nod your heads in agreement."Renee was extremely nervous. What would Anthony think if she ever dated another man? How could Raelyn put her in this situation?Sadly, Renee had not seen Anthony come forward because the host had covered her eyes. However, she heard the sound of his wheelchair's hydraulic system. So, she knew he came forward, but how could she choose him if they were asked to fake their voices?To Renee's dismay, she had been moved forward in a separate chair. She couldn't ask for Raelyn's help either. Renee could only pray and hope that her connection with Anthony was deep enough for her to recognize him quickly. "This is how it will go," the host instructed. Gentlemen, you will be given questions to answer and a special task. Miss Renee will choose the lucky man based on your responses and performance. A
Loverboy # 3 was none other than Anthony! Anthony was already holding a bouquet of roses. He was smiling at her, and his eyes were sparkling. It was clear that he was as relieved as Renee. “Congratulations!” Raelyn exclaimed. Charles applauded while declaring, “It was meant to be.”“Well done, Aunt. You chose well,” Riley said.Adrian and Abner were laughing in their seats, both clapping their hands. At another table, Zia and Clint were cheering them on. “Way to go, Aunt Renee!” Zia exclaimed. “You are the man, Mr. King!” Clint remarked. “I’m telling you, Anthony, you got lucky!” Michael said, and his words granted him a glare from Anthony. Soon, Anthony approached Renee and gave her the flowers, which she happily accepted. Thereafter, the host asked the photographer to photograph them and the newlyweds. They stayed at the front while Charles removed Raelyn’s garter. Afterward, it was Anthony’s turn to put the garter on Renee. Adrian assisted Anthony as he knelt down on one kn
Renee laughed her heart out. She asked, "What was I supposed to do then?" She made a face and reasoned, "He just confessed, and yes, it was a heated kiss, but should it be automatic for me to know he had a boner?""Yes!" All three ladies, Raelyn, Renee, and Zia said simultaneously. Another laugh escaped Renee's lips. She reacted, "Oh, come on.""Okay, maybe not," Zia took back her answer before chuckling. "Poor Anthony," Raelyn remarked. "Poor Dad," Riley echoed."He must have stuffed some ice cubes in his boxers to shrink it down," Raelyn suggested before laughter erupted around their table. "And since you and Mr. King had just kissed, I bet he is still turned on right now," Zia suggested, her thumb pointing to Anthony. "Uhuh," Riley and Raelyn said at the same time, almost like their minds were connected. "What?" Renee reacted. She turned to Anthony, who was still engrossed in a discussion with Kyle Wright. She said, "No, he isn't.""I'm sure he is," Raelyn said. "I'll fix that
“Wow, Aunt and Dad, you finally showed up for breakfast!” Riley remarked before giving Renee an embrace. She also walked over to Anthony and hugged him. Adrian greeted them similarly before guiding Renee and Anthony to their seats. Renee’s face was flushed. She averted everyone’s gaze as she reasoned, “We were just too tired, you know, from the party and the wedding preparation -”“Sure, sure! Go ahead, make us believe that,” Raelyn teased.Anthony said nothing. He just smiled as he settled in. On the other hand, Renee attempted to change the topic: “Anyway, Charles and Raelyn, you are leaving for your honeymoon tonight, right? I’m so excited for you guys!”She looked around and asked, “Where is Zia and Clint?”“Oh, they already left, Aunt,” Adrian answered. “They left for Halliport last night. You and Dad were nowhere to be found yesterday.”Two days had passed since the wedding, and yes, Renee and Anthony had remained in their room since. In fact, they called to move their special d
"Here, have a glass of water, Miss Harolds," Clint said, putting the drink on the table. He left quickly, knowing Daisy had a personal matter to discuss with Riley and Adrian. After encountering Daisy in the hospital hallway, where she was visibly upset, Adrian invited her into his office along with Riley. Though Daisy was taking over Adrian's position as director, he wasn't ready to relinquish his private office at King's Medical Center. Instead, he provided Daisy with another workspace. Over the past weeks, Daisy worked closely with Clint and hospital administrators, gradually assuming Adrian's responsibilities. Thus, the medical center was now Daisy's primary office. While Daisy drank water, Riley said, "If you are not ready to tell us, it's fine. We can have this conversation later -""No, it's okay." Daisy sniffed her tears away, saying, "I just - I just can't believe he would do that! I loved him. I loved him very much! We have been together for six years, and we were getting
“Where did you say Prince often met this girl?” Adrian asked Daisy. As he did, he read the emails. His assistant, Clint, took notes of everything Daisy was telling them. “The Plaza Hotel,” Daisy said. “And you said you had seen the girl from afar, right? Miss Harolds? Can you give us a brief description of this young girl?” Clint asked. Adrian was relieved that his assistant was there because he had so much work. The last thing he needed was to attend to a woman’s cries. It’s not that Adrian was heartless; it’s just that he would instead devote his work hours to work and his free time to his wife. “Um.” Daisy paused and said, “She had blue eyes. She looks very angelic and has brown hair.”“Wow, I’m surprised you caught her eye color,” Clint noted while writing it down. “What about a name? Surely, Prince must have called the girl’s name in the text conversations you saw.”“Um. I think it was Clary or Claire,” Daisy said. “I’m not really sure. I was so upset when I checked his phone,
