I was about to walk past Olivia to my office when she stopped me.“So you think you’re all that huh?” She asked, rh
BRIELLE POVI rose from the water and saw Mateo standing there staring at me“What the fuck? You scared me” I screamed“Do I look scary?” He asked standing there in a black shirt and casual shorts“Why were you sneaking around the house, I thought it was a robber” I said“And you kept swimming?” he asked, raising his eyebrow.“Yeah do you expect me to take a gun and go run after the robber?” I asked, deadpan.I heard him chuckle. I then realized this was the first time we were having a conversation without actually saying mean words to each other.“What are you even doing here? I was promised your absence in this house” I crossed my hands on my chest“Lizzy called me to come make sure the special guest of honor was comfortable in the house and I can see you've already gotten suited in” he said sarcasticallyMy mother was such a snitch sometimes.“Well now you've done your check in, you can leave” I said as I was about to go back to my swimming.I suddenly became aware of the way he wa
BRIELLE POVThe next morning, after I finished checking my bags to see if I had everything packed.I got dressed and put on a comfy outfit: grey flared joggers and a white short sleeve crop top, packing my hair in a slick ponytail.I opened my laptop as I was eating breakfast and checked my emails and I saw some big news.A huge beauty brand emailed me that they were interested in working with me. I replied to their email and they responded that they were willing to pay any rates and would send me products every month.I guess posting quality videos does have an advantage, I was about to start making money just from posting faceless aesthetic videos on social media.Ryan would be so happy for me as she was my number one fan and the only person who knew about my secret accounts.After eating breakfast and making sure the house was in order I took my bags and drove to Davis mansion.On arriving at the house, the butler informed me that they had left for their honeymoon very early in th
BRIELLE POVHearing Mom ask me to go dance with Mateo was beyond unexpected.I declined but no one could ever win an argument against my mom.His hands on my waist, warm and steady and I feel a subtle pull as he draws me closer. The music swirls around us, but all I can hear is the fast thrum of my heartbeat. His touch is light but grounding, sending a quiet shiver through me as I let my arms slide up to rest on his shoulders.We start to move together, our steps falling into a natural rhythm, and I can feel the tension and ease in the way his body leans into mine.I have to remind myself not to stiffen, not to pull away. I hate that he’s always so confident, always so sure of himself, like the world bends to his will. And yet here I am, letting him guide me, swaying to the rhythm of the music like I don’t have a choice.His breath grazes my ear as he speaks softly-words I barely caught on, and I ignore the way my heart trips over itself. I glance up at him, catching the way his eyes
LIZZY POVMy husband and I were called out to do the first couples dance. I still find it hard to believe that today was my wedding day and I was getting married to the love of my life.He was finally my husband, I was beyond proud to call him mine.He held my waist while I put my arm around his shoulders as we danced, staring at each other's eyes, lost in our own world.“You look so beautiful” he said“You've told me a thousand times, husband” I teased“I certainly love the sound of that” he smiledHe looked so handsome, his shiny black hair, pearly white teeths and a stunning jawline with his ocean blue eyes.It's hard to believe he was a man in his 50s“I'll keep saying it for the rest of my life” he twirled me as we danced and caught me in his arms.“Forever with you by my side sounds like heaven” he said“When did you get so poetic” I laughed“Ever since i saw you and fell in love with you i think” he replied“Mmm nice you're also cheesy I see” I smiledWe danced for a couple mor
MATEO POVI went to the house earlier to check on the bride and bridesmaids as instructed when the butler informed me that they had already left. I was about to turn around and leave when I heard a loud curse word.. I went to go check and did not expect to see her.I stood at the door staring at her as she was focused on whatever she was doing on her phone, she didn't notice my presence.I stood silent and watched her, looking at her dress and the way the fabric clings to her in all the right ways, flowing like it was made just for her. The color, rich and vivid, makes her skin glow and her eyes brighter.Her hair, softly framing her face, catches the light and I notice the smallest details- the light blonde highlights in her hair that goes with the gold fabric of her dress, the curve of her neck, the way her hands rest against her side, the faint rise and fall of her breath.I should say something. Anything. But the words won't come. Instead I stay where I am, watching her in the qui
BRIELLE POV “Need any help?” I turned around and saw him. He stood tall, his presence commanding without effort, the sharp blue suit perfectly tailored to his frame. The fabric hugged his broad shoulders and defined biceps. His jet black hair was impeccably styled, the glossy strands catching the light as if sculpted to perfection. He looked like someone who turned heads without trying, even if he had ragged clothes on. I was starting to wonder if all his suits were tailored just for him because they always fit him so well. “How are you here?” I asked, looking up to him. Why was he always present at my worst moments? I watched as his eyes swept over my entire outfit, from my face down to my legs. A faint smirk flickered across his lips, there for only a fleeting second before it disappeared. “You look…” “Save the insults, i really don't care and already have much concerning matters at hand” He stayed silent, somehow I wished I kept quiet and listened to what he
BRIELLE POVMateo had indeed found the person that posted about his identity the next day.Unfortunately it was too late and the media had already broadcasted the news on national television.Davis was upset when he found out, he reassured my mother that he was going to make sure no one knew about her identity unless she was ready.The board of directors were upset about the news as it had caused a disruption from the clients but the situation was quickly handled.Unsurprisingly, sales have been coming in alot and we have been busy at the office as a result of that.I guess being related to a famous billionaire did always have advantages.The wedding preparations were in full swing and my Mom made me her maid of honour. Juggling the responsibilities of assisting with the arrangements while managing work had kept me busy.Ryan and I helped Mom choose the flower bouquets and arrange the wedding venue.Davis had generously flown in a famous fashion designer from Paris to make the bridesm
BRIELLE POV I entered the building and tapped my employee ID on the security gate which enabled me access into the office. The employees stared at me, whispering and gossiping as they watched me pass I’m not going to say I don’t know the reason why, the reason was clear, my outfit. I wore pink office pants paired with a white cropped long sleeve button down shirt, red stiletto heels and my coach tote bag hanging on one arm. I had no idea if wearing such colours were allowed and I didn't care. I saw some colleagues on their phone, looking intently at it. I walked all the way to my office. The telephone rang “Can you please come inform me of my schedule for the day?” Mateo asked after picking the phone. I literally just entered the office, I haven't even had a moment to breathe or sit and he was already calling me in for work. After a few hours into the day. My phone rang and Ryan was the one calling. For an Aesthetic nurse, she seemed to have a lot more time on her
BRIELLE POVMom and I had just finished from the nail salon after getting our hair done.We walked around the mall looking for an outfit to wear for the upcoming family dinner we had this weekend When mom had informed me of her engagement a few days ago, I was beyond shocked. She had barely known the man for a year and now they were engaged“What if he’s not the right one for you mom? Don’t you think it’s all too quick?” I expressed my concerns when she informed me of the engagement “The heart knows the right person when you meet him” that was her replyAnd those words have been stuck in my head ever since, if my mom believes he is the right one for her, then I won’t come between her happiness.This was the first time I was going to meet my mom’s fiancé. I was so eager to finally meet the man behind my mom’s smile. “Do you think this looks good on me?” My mom asked holding out a dress “Everything looks good on you, you have already bought so many dresses” I said “I know, what if...
