Chapter 54Ivy Chase ~•~I made sure to apologize to all the guests who were present for wasting their time. It wasn’t fair to invite them to a ceremony that wouldn’t be successful. But I needed them there because I wanted Sebastian to face public humiliation. Most people on the blogs were bashing me for being a terrible person because I embarrassed him publicly. Their words didn’t phase me because I didn’t care what strangers on the internet had to say about my life and choices. Soon enough, everyone had departed from the venue. My parents had also left but they asked me to meet them at the house when I was done. I felt so relieved like a heavy weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I couldn’t help but wonder how Sebastian and his family were feeling. He wanted to play me but I beat him to his game. He would be so devastated and frustrated. “Hey, Stranger.” I heard Parker’s voice from behind. With a smile, I turned around to look at him. “You’re still here?” I asked, gestu

Chapter 55Ivy Chase ~•~I had already made my decision a long time ago. I wasn’t going to press charges. But I knew that my parents would be upset if I told them what I had decided. I hesitated for a while before shrugging my shoulders. “I have no idea. I want to think about it for a little while before making any decision.” My father wasn’t impressed by my answer but he didn’t protest against it. “Fine, but don’t hesitate to speak to me when you finally decide on what to do.”I responded with a small smile. “Sure, I will.” I didn’t want to press charges against Sebastian or Zara. The public humiliation they had faced was enough to ruin their lives. Plus, I still had a soft spot for them and couldn’t bring myself to watch them go to prison. I was trying to be lenient with them. “You can stay at the house for a while, in case you feel sad or lonely at your apartment.” My mother added when we all settled down on the couch. My parents had been wanting me to move back home, and th

Chapter 56 Sebastian ~•~ I pulled it out of my pocket and saw it was Mr. Harrison who was calling. My heart skipped a beat. Why was the CEO of that company calling on my supposed wedding day? I hesitated at first, unsure if I should answer the call or not. Letting out a deep sigh, I left the living room and made my way upstairs. Zara was there and I didn’t want her to listen to my conversation. I was scared of what Harrison would say, but I couldn’t run forever. I had to muster up the courage to answer the call, I kept my fingers crossed, hoping he wasn’t calling to say he didn’t want to work with my company anymore. Or maybe he wanted to say he was ready to finalize the deal. I mean, he said we would talk about the collaboration after my wedding. I was hoping for the best but expecting the worst. As I answered the call and pressed the phone to my ear, I cleared my throat and began. “Good day.” I didn’t want to talk too much. I just wanted to listen to what he h

Chapter 57Ivy Chase ~•~I answered the call and pressed the phone closer to my ear. I took a deep breath to steady my voice before speaking. “Hello.” “Ivy, I need to see you right away.” Sebastian’s voice was laced with urgency as it sounded from the other end of the line. I rolled my eyes even though he couldn’t see me. “In case I didn’t make it clear. We are done! I’m not your girlfriend anymore and you can’t see me.” My heart felt heavy as those words left my mouth. “Come on, Ivy.” He pleaded. “You didn’t even give me a chance to explain myself.” He continued, trying to convince me to meet up with him. Any reasonable person would give me some space and time before even daring to call my phone. But Sebastian was different. I snorted. “You should be happy I’m not even pressing charges against you.” My voice was low because I didn’t want my sister to hear that part. She would go crazy if she knew I was letting them go scott-free. There was a brief silence. Sebastian cleare

Chapter 58Ivy Chase ~•~Six months had passed since the dramatic events at the wedding. My life had changed in ways I never thought was possible. I started working as the CEO in my family’s company and many people wanted to work with me because they saw me as brave. I thought it was the end of the world when I broke up with Sebastian, but little did I know, it was just the beginning of my success. I spent most of my nights crying as I tried to figure out how my life would be. Sometimes, I wished it was just a nightmare that would end. But it wasn’t, it was actually my reality. Sebastian tried his best to get back with me, he made all his friends and family reach out to me. But I wasn’t a naive girl anymore, I stood by my decision and refused to interact with him. He still didn’t give up though, he was still trying his best to get my attention once in a while.From what I heard, his mother cut him out of their family business. Since then, he hadn’t been able to start up somethi

Chapter 59Parker Wellington ~•~I had already left to order breakfast for me and Ivy, but I realized that I hadn’t even asked her what she wanted. So I turned back and walked over to meet her on the balcony. I stopped in my tracks when I saw that she was on a phone call with somebody. Just as I was about to turn back and give her some privacy, I heard words that crushed my heart. “Sebastian and I always talked about going to Paris, so I can’t bring myself to enjoy the……” I felt like I had been punched in the gut. I had no idea when I let out a disappointed scoff. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. She stopped mid-sentence and turned to look at me, her eyes wide in shock. She wasn’t expecting me to be there. I knew something was weird about her recent behavior. When I first told Ivy about going on a trip to Paris, she was excited. But as soon as we landed, her demeanor changed. She began acting moody and distant. I asked her severally what the problem was but she couldn’t

Chapter 60Ivy Chase ~•~“I thought you were meant to spend a week in Paris? Why are you back just after three days?” Serena asked as we drove away from the airport. I let out a wistful sigh, running my fingers through my hair. “Parker and I got into a fight.” I rolled my eyes as the memories of our argument replayed in my head. “What?” Serena asked, staring at me in shock. “You didn’t tell me about it. What happened?” She asked, her voice laced with curiosity. “He overheard our conversation,” I said, lowering my gaze.“Oh, was that the reason why you abruptly ended the call?” She asked and I responded with a nod. “I honestly thought that your phone died or something.” I shook my head. “No,” I replied, releasing a deep breath. “He heard when I talked about being unable to enjoy the trip because of Sebastian.” “Wow,” Serena muttered. “That’s not good. What did he say?” “He accused me of still being stuck on Sebastian. He was upset that I couldn’t move on and he cut the trip shor

Chapter 61Ivy Chase ~•~As soon as I dropped my luggage on the bed, I pulled out my phone and called Parker’s cell phone. I watched as it rang multiple times but he didn’t respond. Letting out a deep sigh, I tossed my phone on the bed. I was exhausted from the trip, so I decided to rest for a little bit. I kicked off my shoes and lay down on the bed, closing my eyes. As I tried to drift off to sleep, I couldn’t stop thinking about what Serena had said earlier. I needed to keep my emotions in check and act right before Parker gets tired of me. He had been patient enough and I had become too comfortable. I wouldn’t forgive myself if I eventually push him away because of my actions. Soon enough, I was fast asleep. I had no idea how long I slept, but I suddenly jolted awake by the sound of my stomach growling. Letting out a loud yawn, I stretched my legs before climbing out of the bed. I realized I hadn’t had anything to eat all day. I was upset at Parker, so I didn’t even care t

Chapter 83Ivy Chase ~•~As Parker hung up the call, I tried calling me multiple times but he didn’t answer his phone. I was confused because I couldn’t remember doing anything embarrassing to him. He wasn’t even straightforward with me. I had no idea what was happening. He sounded so angry and frustrated. Was it just a silly prank? I tried calling him again, but this time, his number was unavailable. Did he block me or something? I let out a disbelieving scoff. I asked Serena for her phone and tried calling him. I was shocked to see that the line connected. “Parker, what the hell is going on?” I asked as he answered the call. As soon as he heard my voice, the line disconnected. I tried calling him a few more times, but he didn’t respond. “What is wrong with him?” I asked Serena as if she knew the answer to the question. I sent him a few more texts, asking him to explain what was going on. My mind was racing with different thoughts. What did I do to embarrass Parker? Serena’

Chapter 82Parker Wellington ~•~My day was going smoothly until the receptionist called to say I had a visitor. I was confused because I was expecting anyone at the office. Or maybe it was Ivy. But she was meant to be preparing for the event and we didn’t plan on seeing each other until later in the day. The receptionist didn’t say who it was, she just asked me to come downstairs because the person wouldn’t say who they were or what they wanted. My curiosity got the best of me and I wanted to know what the unexpected visit was about. I wasn’t really busy, so I decided to go downstairs to see who it was. As I descended the stairs, my face formed into a frown when I saw Sebastian standing by the receptionist’s desk. Was Sebastian the visitor? What did he want? The last time I saw him was when I went over to his house to warn him to stay away from my girlfriend. He had been quiet since then, and I felt he had gotten the message. But now he was back. I could only hope he didn’t w

Chapter 81Ivy Chase~•~Parker and I practically spent every day together for the past two weeks. He wanted to make the most of the time before leaving for Japan. No matter how hard I tried to put on a brave face, I couldn’t shake off the feeling of the impending doom. I couldn’t even enjoy my time with him. The thought of being away from him was suffocating, and I couldn’t help but feel like I was counting down the days until he left. At some point, I even thought about the possibility of moving there with him. I mean, it would be only for a year. My company had great staff and they would do well without me. But I shoved those thoughts away, I didn’t need to put my career on hold because of a man. I would end up regretting the decision. I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of chokehold Parker had on me. A few months ago, I didn’t want to get into a relationship with him. But now, it felt like I couldn’t live without him. If I had learned anything from my last relationship, it

Chapter 80Ivy Chase~•~“The company is expanding, and they want me to oversee the operations over there for a while. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.” I swallowed hard, ignoring the lump that had formed in my throat. “So you’re leaving for one year?” I asked, hoping he wouldn’t say yes. Parker sighed, leaning forward. “I don’t know. I haven’t made a decision yet.” He exhaled sharply. “I don’t want to leave you.” I didn’t want him to leave me either. I wasn’t sure our relationship would be able to survive a long distance. “So what are you saying?” I asked, my eyes locked onto his. “I don’t know. I wanted to talk to you about it first.” He replied, running his fingers through his hair. “I love you, Ivy. And I don’t want to be away from you.” My heart clenched as I heard him say those words. I had been wanting to hear them for so long, but now, under these circumstances, they didn’t bring me the excitement I thought they would. “If you love me and don’t want to be away fr

Chapter 79Ivy Chase~•~I couldn’t concentrate on my work throughout the day but my mind was constantly drifting back to Parker. I texted him again to let him know that I was free and asked him to meet me at the office. But hours ticked by and I still hadn’t gotten a response from him. I tried to push my feeling of unease, telling myself that he was busy. Finally, my phone buzzed with an incoming text from Parker. My heart skipped a beat as I opened the text message. He asked me to wait until later, promising to come over to my house so we could discuss everything in person. I was relieved but anxious at the same time. I had no idea what he wanted to say and was scared that it would be something bad. The rest of the day felt like an eternity. My eyes were constantly moving to the clock placed on the wall in front of me. After a few more hours, I was finally done for the day. I gathered my things and left for the house immediately. But I made a quick stop at the restaurant to ge

Chapter 78Ivy Chase~•~After Parker and his family left, I went back to meet my parents in the living room. “So what do you think about them?” I asked, staring at them in anticipation. My parents hesitated for a while, then my father finally responded. “Parker looks like a fine young man, and I’m sure that he is a decent person.” “But his father had been to prison and he caused it.” My mother added. I gasped in shock. How did she know about that? “It’s been a while, and I’m sure it was just a misunderstanding,” I replied, defending Parker. “He doesn’t look like he would hurt me, right?” My parents exchanged glances. “We can’t say for sure. Human beings are unpredictable. We just hope that he doesn’t end up hurting you.” My father replied. “Don’t take it the wrong way, your mother and I are just looking out for you.” I responded with a quiet nod. “So you guys approve of our relationship? You don’t mind if I’m in a relationship with someone like him?” My mother chuckled. “Ivy,

Chapter 77Parker Wellington ~•~I held her hand before she could go away. “Ivy, stop.” My voice was barely above a whisper. “Just listen to me.” She didn’t hold back her scoff. “You almost embarrassed me, Parker. Do you know how I felt when you didn’t respond to any of my calls or texts?” I let out a deep breath. “I understand, but it wasn’t intentional.” Ivy remained silent. “I had an impromptu business meeting. I even had to cut the dinner short because I had to be at your house. I accidentally forgot my phone at my house, so I couldn’t even contact you.” Ivy listened attentively as I explained. “You know I wouldn’t leave you hanging on purpose,” I added as I pulled her closer. She was reluctant at first, but she finally gave in. “I thought you didn’t want to come anymore. And you were just ignoring me because you didn’t have the courage to tell me about it.” Ivy’s voice was calmer. I shook my head. “No, no. I wouldn’t do that.” I countered. “I’m so sorry, I should have f

Chapter 76Parker Wellington ~•~I knew Ivy wouldn’t forgive me for arriving late to dinner. But the situation was completely out of my control. I wasn’t planning on ignoring her or showing up late. Something urgent came up. And it was something I couldn’t miss. I knew I should’ve updated her about it, but I was so excited that I left my phone at the house. Dinner was meant to start by 7:00 pm. But my meeting didn’t end until after 7:30 pm. The meeting was impromptu and I didn’t even have any chance to communicate with anybody. Not even my parents. As I went over to the family house to pick them up, they were also worried that I had canceled on them. I didn’t even get the chance to go back to my house to grab my phone. I wanted to explain myself to Ivy, but she didn’t even give me a chance. She ignored me and acted like I was invisible. She wouldn’t even look at me but she engaged in conversations with my family. My eyes darted around everybody. I was shocked to see that everyo

Chapter 75Ivy Chase ~•~My eyes darted at the clock and my phone every minute. 7:30 pm. Parker’s family hadn’t yet arrived. My hands were clammy with sweat. What if they didn’t show up? The dining table was already filled with a variety of dishes. I wouldn’t know what to do if they ended up ditching the dinner. I looked at my phone again, searching to see if Parker had sent me a text or something. I had been trying to reach him for the past hour. But he was taking his calls or answering my text messages. Dinner was meant to start by 7:00 pm. My parents had already asked why they hadn’t arrived. I had to come up with something convincing. I told them that something had come up and they would be running late. I asked them to wait until 8:00pm before starting dinner. My mind was racing with different thoughts. Did Parker lie to me again? Was dinner really happening? I tried my best to stay calm even though I was nervous as hell. A few minutes later, Serena came downstairs to m
