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 62Ivy Chase ~•~I swayed my body in sync with the loud music that came out of the speaker. I was having the time of my life. As I enjoyed myself, I dreaded the end of the day, I just wanted to stay there for a little longer. As I danced without a care in the world, I felt someone tap my shoulder. But I didn’t turn around to see who it was. I wasn’t in the mood to interact with anybody. When the person saw I wasn’t ready to look at them, they decided to come in front of me. “Oh boy! I see you.” I winked seductively as I saw a handsome man standing in front of me. “What can I do to get your attention?” He asked, loud enough for me to hear over the music. “You look really beautiful.” I smiled. “You’ve already gotten my attention.” He responded with a mischievous smile. “Alright, can I have this dance?” He stretched out his hands, inviting me to join him.I nodded, feeling a thrill of excitement. “Sure, you’re exactly why I left my house today.” I reached out to his hands

Chapter 63Parker Wellington ~•~I’ll admit it, I didn’t want to stop talking to Ivy. But she pushed me to my limit. I had been so patient with her, but she took me for granted. The past two weeks without her had been tough. I regretted my decision to cut her off. Most days, I thought about reaching out to her, but my pride kept getting in the way. Ivy had this hold on me that I couldn’t explain. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had made a mistake. My mind always drifted back to Ivy, wondering what she was doing or if she was even thinking about me. She was trying to reach out to me for a week, but I ignored her because I was trying to prove a point. Eventually, she stopped reaching out to me. I wondered if I had lost her for good. I was worried when my best friend told me that Ivy had been visiting his club frequently. I knew I had to step in and do something about it. Even if we weren’t speaking, I couldn’t let her continue like that. I was so furious when I went to the c

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

Chapter 74Parker Wellington ~•~What I did was very stupid.I shouldn’t have lied to Ivy. It would’ve been better if I had just told her the truth from the beginning. But I thought my parents would be polite and accept the invitation. Now, I had disappointed Ivy and she was upset with me.I had no idea how to fix it. I left several text messages without getting any response. I even called her phone a few times but they all went straight to voicemail. It was already late, so I just decided to wait until the next day before speaking to her. Just as I dropped my phone on the table and slid into my bed. It started ringing. Without hesitation, I grabbed it from the table. But I let out a disappointed sigh when I saw the caller ID. It wasn’t Ivy, it was my mother. She had been calling me for a while but I wasn’t in the mood to speak to her. I was still upset about what happened at the house. Frustrated, I turned off my phone and went back to bed. Shortly after, I drifted off to sl

Chapter 73Ivy Chase ~•~My lips parted and I blinked. I hoped it wasn’t what I was thinking about. “Why? What did you do?” I asked, my voice measured. Parker hesitated for a moment, then he cleared his throat and responded. “I lied to you.” My chest tightened. “What did you lie to me about?” I asked, letting out a deep breath as I prepared myself to hear his response. “Dinner isn’t happening.” I let out a disbelieving scoff. “What do you mean?” I asked, raising a brow at him even though he couldn’t see me. “Did your parents change their mind? What happened?” Parker let out a wistful sigh. “They didn’t change their mind, Ivy.” He replied. “They never agreed to it.” He added, his voice tight. “Wha…what? But you…..” I stuttered as I struggled to form a coherent sentence. “I know I told you that they agreed, but it was just a lie.” I felt my heart shattering into a million tiny pieces. “Why would you lie to me about something like that?” I asked, the disappointment evident in

Chapter 72Ivy Chase ~•~After a hectic workday, I decided to spend the evening at the family house. I could finally show up at my parent's house because I had an answer for my father. Most times, my house got lonely and I always found solace in my sister. But as I arrived at the house, I saw an empty house. I called my sister and she told me that they were out for an event. But she told me to wait for her because they would be back in no time. I obliged and decided to wait for them in Serena’s room. As I collapsed on her bed, I pulled out my phone and scrolled aimlessly while I waited for them to return. I decided to check Zara’s page. I found myself going there once in a while when I was bored. Even after her harsh betrayal, I still missed her sometimes. It wasn’t like I wanted her to be my friend again, I just wished things were different. I wished she hadn’t betrayed me and we were still friends. But my face formed into a frown and I shoved those thoughts away when I stumb
