Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 79. Pretense And Tears
The ringing tone of my phone woke me up. I fished around for it, finding it on the table where Brenda had placed a basket of flowers and a teddy bear for Kelly to play with when she woke up.I grabbed the phone and brought it to my ear, rubbing my eyes to clear the sleep from my face. “Hello?”“Veronica Carlisle,” Mrs. Carlos’s voice came harsh and cold through the phone. “I’m at the café waiting for you. I know you're not the type to keep me waiting unless you want me to come to you tomorrow.”I stood up, glancing over at Brenda. She had her headphones in, softly singing along to a song. “Don’t threaten me, Mrs. Carlos. It’s my choice, and I can choose not to come.”She chuckled softly, a sound that sent a shiver down my spine. “As it is now, my dear, you have no choice. So, unless you want me to think up something even nastier to do…”“I’ll come,” I said, feeling defeated. “Give me some time.” I walked over to tap Brenda on the shoulder, and she pulled her headphones off, looking at
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 80. Yes, Blame Me
“I heard everyone blame me for whatever happened in Ivan's life, but I won't blame them, they didn't know the truth.” I said quietly, meeting her gaze. “Mrs Carlos, your son left because he's tired of a mother like you, who couldn't support his choice.“Her expression hardened, the mask of grief slipping just slightly. “I know what's best for my son and you're definitely not the one. You’ve always been so good at making yourself the victim, painting me black before my son.“I clenched my fists under the table, trying to keep my composure. “I didn’t come here to argue with you, Mrs. Carlos. I want to find Ivan just as much as you do. But blaming me for everything isn’t going to bring him back.”She wiped her eyes again, her tears now less convincing than before. “You think you know what’s best for him, don’t you? You think you’re the only one who cares. But I’m his mother, Veronica. I’ve known him his entire life. I know what’s best for him, and right now, that’s you getting out of his
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 81. You're Not My Type
“You're insane if you think I'm going to do anything with you,” I said, my anger rising like a storm. “I can’t sit here and listen to all this.”I stood up hastily and started walking towards the door. Nathaniel called out after me, but I didn’t care. He ran to catch up, grabbing my hand. I yanked it out of his grip and slapped him hard across the face."Don’t you dare come near me, or I’ll get a restraining order!" I shouted, tears streaming down my face. The bodyguards at the entrance looked like they were going to block my way, but when they saw my expression, they quickly stepped aside, clearing the path. I stormed out, heading straight to the car where Brenda was waiting in the driver’s seat.As I got in, slamming the door behind me, I could hear Nathaniel yelling at the bodyguards, scolding them. “If you ever let that happen again, you’ll lose your job!” His voice faded as Brenda started the engine. I slumped in the front seat, still fuming with anger, my hands shaking.Brenda g
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 82. Mommy Where's Daddy
"Mommy," Kelly muttered, her voice weak but clearer than before as her eyes slowly fluttered open. "Where's daddy?"The question hit me like a ton of bricks. My breath caught in my throat, and for a moment, I didn’t know how to respond. I could feel the weight of her words settling on my shoulders, the weight of everything that had happened between Ivan, Nathaniel, and me. How could I explain all of that to a child who just wanted to see her father?I leaned closer, brushing her hair gently away from her face. "Daddy... Daddy's away right now, sweetheart," I said softly, trying to keep my voice calm and steady. "But he loves you very much."Kelly blinked, looking up at me with her big, innocent eyes. "Will he come to see me?"I swallowed hard, feeling the sting of tears behind my eyes. "I don’t know, baby," I whispered, my heart aching as I said the words. "But I’m sure he’s thinking about you every minute."She nodded slowly, seeming to accept my answer, though I could tell she was s
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 83. Oh No!
The nurse’s eyes widened, her disbelief still evident as she processed the situation. I could feel Brenda tense up beside me, trying to think of something to say to defuse the tension, but the truth hung heavily in the air.“Yes, I’m Veronica Carlisle,” I finally admitted, my voice barely a whisper, the weight of my confession pulling me down. “But please, don’t tell anyone. I’m begging you.”The nurse blinked in disbelief, clearly trying to reconcile the gossip she’d heard with the reality standing before her. “I’ve heard so much about you in the news, but I never thought I’d meet you in person,” she said, still staring as if she expected me to disappear.“She…” Brenda started, trying to interject, but she faltered, her words caught in her throat.I took a deep breath and stepped forward. “Most of what you’ve heard about me isn’t true,” I said softly, trying to keep my voice calm and steady. “Please understand, I’m just trying to protect my daughter.”The nurse’s eyes darted between
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 84. The Hopes Of You
The ringing of my phone jolted me awake, and I quickly grabbed it, my heart racing with the hope that it was Ivan calling. But to my surprise, the screen displayed Emma’s name.I answered, bringing the phone to my ear. “Hello,” I mumbled, still trying to shake off the remnants of sleep.Emma’s voice was calm, but I could sense a hint of urgency behind her words. “V, how are you? How’s Kelly?”“We’re okay. Kelly’s been unwell, but the doctor says she’s recovering,” I replied, glancing at my sleeping daughter.“Thank God for that,” Emma said, sounding relieved. Then, her tone shifted slightly. “Are you having issues with Ivan? I’ve been so busy lately, I haven’t been keeping up with the internet gossip.”I sighed, running a hand through my hair. “It’s a long story. The wedding was a disaster, and... Ivan’s missing. No one’s seen him since that day.”“Oh, V, I’m so sorry,” Emma said, her voice filled with concern. “The reason I called is because Ivan showed up at my house earlier this mo
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 85. The Thought Of Falling
The door creaked open, and I quickly pulled the hood of my hoodie over my head, thinking it might be the doctor. I had my back to the door, trying to cover my face since I couldn’t find my sunglasses.But when I heard the familiar voice of the nurse, relief washed over me. I let out a deep sigh and turned around.“How are you doing, baby girl?” she asked Kelly, who had stopped talking and was now staring at her with curiosity.“She’s getting better. She woke up cheerfully today,” I replied, giving the nurse a small smile.“She’s a strong little lady,” the nurse said warmly, glancing at Kelly. “I’ve spoken with the doctor, and he said you can take her home now.”I sighed happily, squeezing Kelly’s hand in mine. “Did you hear that, honey? You can come home with us today!”“Really, Mom?” Kelly beamed, raising her little hand to her cheek in excitement. “Can we go to the park after this?”I smiled and nodded. “Yes, baby, we can.”The nurse turned to me, her tone becoming more serious. “Mi
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 86. Fighting A Lone
The car stopped in front of Brenda’s apartment, and we both got out, making our way towards the house. I held Kelly’s hand as we climbed the few steps leading to the door. Brenda unlocked it, and as soon as she pushed it open, my phone started ringing. I let go of Kelly’s hand, and she walked inside ahead of us.Pulling my phone out, I glanced at the screen. It was Lily, the nurse, calling.I answered quickly, “Hello?”“Miss Carlisle,” Lily’s voice came through, sounding a little excited. “I’ve spoken with my cousin, and she’s thrilled that you’re ready to address Ivan’s fans officially. She said she’d like to meet with you tomorrow to plan out how the interview will go.”A surge of nerves and anticipation hit me. “Thank you so much, Lily. Please send me the address, location, and her contact information. I’ll be there.”“I’ll send everything shortly,” she replied warmly. “I’m really happy you’re doing this. It’ll clear up a lot of things.”“Thanks again. I couldn’t have done this wi
