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

After dinner, I tucked Kelly into bed, kissed her goodnight, and went to my room. But even though I lay down, sleep eluded me. A part of me didn’t want to do the interview tomorrow. Fear gnawed at me, what if doing this would only make things worse? What if Ivan's fans only hated me more? Another part of me wanted to go through with it, to finally be free from the constant attacks and castigation that had been thrown my way since everything fell apart.I closed my eyes, hoping to drift off, but the unease was relentless. Fear crept up my sleeves like an unwelcome chill, the kind I hadn't felt before. What I was about to do would change everything, not just for me but for Mrs. Carlos too. The world needed to see the kind of person she truly was. She was the one who deserved the hatred, not me. She was the one pulling the strings, manipulating everything from behind the scenes.But no matter how much I tried to console myself, it still felt... wrong somehow. Not because she didn’t deser

Sofia didn’t waste time. “There has been a lot of speculation in the media about your relationship with Ivan and the events surrounding your wedding. Many people believe you were involved with Nathaniel, Ivan’s brother. Can you tell us what really happened?”I took a deep breath. “The truth is… none of what’s been said is accurate. I was set up. Nathaniel manipulated the situation, and Mrs. Carlos… she’s been pulling the strings from the start. She never wanted me to marry Ivan, and she did everything she could to stop it.”Sofia leaned in, clearly intrigued. “What exactly did she do?”“She orchestrated the entire scandal. The kiss with Nathaniel, it wasn’t something I wanted. It was part of a larger scheme to ruin my relationship with Ivan. I’ve been painted as the villain, but I’ve been a pawn in their game. Nathaniel had harsh me several times using my past against me and Mrs Carlos didn't stop any of it instead she used him to destroy my wedding to Ivan.“Sofia’s eyes widened slig

When we got home, Brenda went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. I settled on the couch, scrolling through the comments left by Ivan's fans. To my relief, they were finally believing me, and the revelation of Kelly had shifted the narrative. The hate was no longer directed at me; instead, it was aimed squarely at Mrs. Carlos and Nathaniel.I sighed deeply, feeling the tension that had built up over the past few months begin to release. But just as I was starting to relax, a knock at the door broke the moment. I stood up, heading over to see who it was.The instant I opened the door, a tall figure grabbed my wrist and yanked me forward. I barely had time to react before his hand was clamped over my mouth, muffling my screams. He dragged me toward a black SUV parked near Brenda’s apartment. Panic flooded me, and I struggled to free myself, but his grip was ironclad.He shoved me into the back seat, where Nathaniel sat waiting with a sinister grin."If you only knew what you've done tod

Before The One-Night StandI’ve always loved Ivan, even before I met him. I can still remember when I first started developing feelings for him. It was during one of our monthly book hunts, a tradition my sister and I cherished. We'd go out, scour bookshops, buy books, and then binge-read them. I had always loved reading, it was a part of who I was. But that day, I found a particular book that changed everything.Taming My CEO Husband. The title alone caught my attention, but the cover was what really drew me in.“I’ll take this one,” I murmured to myself, pulling the book off the shelf. I ran my fingers over the title, intrigued, before flipping through the pages to get a feel for it.Meanwhile, Chloe was on the other side of the bookstore, clutching the books she had chosen. She was a die-hard J.K. Rowling fan, the kind of girl who’d empty her savings just to get the next book in the Harry Potter series.“Ivan Carlos,” I whispered, my fingers brushing over the name of the author. Th

Flashback (cont'd)I stood in front of the full-length mirror in my room, staring at my reflection. My long brown hair had been ironed to perfection, falling in sleek waves down my back. I smoothed my hands over my dress, admiring the way it hugged my figure, and let out a small sigh. I could almost imagine Ivan Carlos standing behind me, his strong arms wrapping around my waist, pulling me close. The thought made my heart race.Just as I was lost in the fantasy, a familiar voice broke through my daydream. “What are you doing?” Emma’s voice snapped me back to reality as she walked into the room, her eyebrows raised in amusement.I turned to face her, slightly flustered. “Oh, hey. I didn’t hear you come in.”Emma folded her arms, leaning against the doorframe with a smirk. “Clearly. So, what’s with all the glam? Where are you going?”I bit my lip, feeling a little shy. “I heard Ivan Carlos is coming to Canada for a book signing, and… I really want to see him.”Emma rolled her eyes dram

I sat on the cold, hard floor, my face buried in my knees, tears soaking through the fabric of my jeans. The room was dark and dusty, the air heavy and stale. All I could think about was Kelly. Was she okay? Had she been asking for me? The thought of her little voice calling out for me was enough to break me.The room felt smaller with each passing hour, suffocating me slowly. I had been here for days, trapped, alone, without food or water. My throat was dry, my stomach ached with hunger, and my body felt weak, almost too weak to cry anymore. But the tears came anyway, hot and relentless.I hoped, prayed, that someone would come. Ivan. Brenda. Anyone. But there was nothing. No sound, no light, just the unbearable silence of abandonment. Even Nathaniel, who claimed he wanted me, who had kidnapped for his mother didn't bother to check up on me. I had never felt more helpless, more forgotten.Would anyone even know where to find me? Would they come in time?I hugged my knees tighter, try

Six days had passed, and I was still locked inside that suffocating room. I tried to hold onto the hope Brenda had always told me to cling to, but it was slipping away. I was too weak to stand, the physical pain from Mrs. Carlos’s blows had mostly healed, but the ache in my heart remained. What had I done to deserve this? All I wanted was to be with Ivan. Was that too much to ask?Now, she had threatened to hurt Kelly if I didn’t give in to her demands. The thought of my little girl in danger because of me haunted my every waking moment. My throat was dry, and hunger gnawed at my insides. I couldn't take it anymore. I was ready to surrender, ready to do whatever she asked if it meant Kelly would be safe.The door creaked open, and I lay on the cold, hard floor, too exhausted to move. I couldn’t even muster the strength to speak. The man entered and pulled me up by the arm, but there was no fight left in me. I followed him weakly, my body barely able to support itself.

He pulled out and put it in again, going faster as I held onto him, his mouth finding mine in a searing kiss. As his thrusts increased and I felt that wave of pleasure again washing over me, I could only grip him tighter and close my eyes, willing myself to come faster. My climax ripped through me and I clutched onto him, my whole body shaking uncontrollably as my release hit me hard, sending me into oblivion. I felt his warm cum spilling over my stomach, soaking into me as he held me tightly. His breathing slowed and his hands smoothed over my body, soothing and comforting, making sure that I was okay.He kissed me softly as he let me down, pulling out of me and laying me gently on the bed.

We spent a long time on the lawn that night, our bodies entwined as we lay side by side on the soft grass, staring up at the sky. The moon was full, its silvery light casting a glow over the world around us. A gentle breeze rustled the trees in the distance, carrying with it the scent of pine and fresh earth. I felt a deep sense of contentment, a peacefulness I hadn’t known in years.“I never thought a time like this would come,” I said softly, breaking the silence, my voice barely above a whisper. “After all that your mom did to me.” I turned my head to look at Ivan, who still had his gaze fixed on the sky, his profile illuminated by the soft glow of the moon.He didn’t respond right away, but I saw the faint smile tug at the corners of his lips. After a moment, he turned toward me, his blue eyes meeting mine with an intensity that took my breath away. “I knew it would come,” he said, his voice steady, reassuring. “But I didn’t think it would be this soon.”He pulled me closer to hi
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 104. My Crush
Brenda had her bags packed as we stood together at the doorway, holding each other in a long, tight hug. She had been my rock throughout all the madness, and now she was going on a vacation for her work trip.“I’m going to miss you,” I said, my voice heavy with emotion. “I don’t know how I would have gotten through any of this without you.”Brenda smiled, pulling back to look at me, her eyes filled with warmth. “You’ve been strong, Veronica. Stronger than you give yourself credit for. I’m always just a call away, and don’t you dare forget that. You're always welcome in Paris whenever you feel like seeing your Fav cousin.”“I won’t forget all you did for me.” I said, wiping a tear that had started to roll down my cheek. “Thank you for everything.”We shared one last hug before she picked up her suitcase. Mark, her new romantic interest, was waiting by the car, ready to drive her to the airport. She gave me a wink and a playful nudge toward the house.“Take care of that man in there and
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 103. Sold Mansion
“Yes, Alfonso, I'll come over today to give you the mansion documents,” Ivan said as I walked into the living room. He was sitting on the couch, phone in hand, his tone serious. “Make sure it's confidential. I don't want anyone knowing about it.”I placed the cup of coffee I was holding on the table and took a seat opposite him. His call ended, and he looked at me with a warm smile. “Thanks, my love, for the coffee,” he said, reaching for his cup.I smiled back, taking a sip from mine, but I couldn't shake the thoughts swirling in my mind. I lowered my gaze, and Ivan noticed the unease written across my face. He stood up, still holding his cup, and moved to sit beside me, his expression softening with concern.“What’s wrong, my love?” he asked gently, placing his hand on my shoulder. The warmth of his touch was comforting, but it wasn’t enough to ease the knot tightening in my chest.I sighed, my voice shaky as I spoke. “I’m just thinking... since you're selling the mansion here in Pa

Ivan’s hand found mine, squeezing it gently. “I was blind, Veronica. I thought I was protecting my family, but in reality, I was only protecting their lies. I hate that it took me so long to realize.”I was silent for a moment, letting his words sink in. The hurt, the betrayal, it was still there, but hearing Ivan acknowledge his role in it, hearing him apologize with such sincerity, softened some of the walls I had built.“I just wanted to be enough for you, Ivan,” I whispered. “But your mother made me feel like I was nothing, and you… you never defended me.”He turned toward me, lifting my chin so our eyes met. “You were always enough, Veronica. I’m so sorry I didn’t make you feel that way. I was too wrapped up in my own fears, in trying to live up to what my mother expected. But that’s over now.”I nodded, my heart aching with a mixture of relief and sadness. “I don’t want to go through that again, Ivan. I can’t. Kelly can’t.”“I know,” he whispered, his voice full of regret. “I do
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 101. Kiss Me
“Daddy, why's mommy over there is she trying you?“ Kelly asked looking up at Ivan. Her question seemed innocent enough, but it hung in the air like a fragile thread, threatening to unravel the delicate balance I was trying to keep.Ivan glanced at me, his eyes searching for some kind of permission or understanding. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, not sure how to handle the moment. How could we explain this tangled mess to Kelly without breaking her heart?Ivan smiled down at Kelly and gently stroked her hair. “No, sweetheart. Mommy’s just giving us some time to enjoy our ice cream. She’s not avoiding me.” He tried to keep his tone light, but even Kelly could sense that things weren’t right.She wrinkled her nose, unconvinced. “But you should sit together. Like in the movies.”Ivan chuckled softly, though it was strained. “Maybe someday we will, princess. For now, let’s just enjoy our ice cream, okay?”Kelly, satisfied for the moment, returned her focus to her ice cream, but I coul

“Mommy, are they gone?” Kelly whispered, pushing open the door and making her way towards us.I turned towards her and scooped her up into my arms. “Yes, honey. They’re gone,” I said softly as I carried her over to the couch in the living room, placing her gently down.She looked up at me, her innocent eyes filled with expectation. “Is it Daddy?” she asked, her voice small but hopeful.I hesitated, glancing at Brenda, who was sitting on the couch, her attention fixed on her phone. The weight of Kelly’s question hung in the air. How could I explain everything to her, a child who only wanted to feel safe and loved by the people she thought should protect her?I opened my mouth to say something when the door creaked open. I looked up and saw Ivan standing in the doorway, watching us with a mixture of hope and regret. He was part of Kelly’s life, whether I liked it or not, but the complexities of our situation made everything more difficult.I sat down next to Kelly, brushing a hand throu
Flash Marriage: A Night To Remember 99. The Truth
Mrs. Carlos’ face paled, her eyes widening in shock as the weight of Ivan’s words hit her. For the first time, her composed mask slipped, revealing the fear and desperation underneath. “Nathaniel told you…?” she whispered, her voice trembling. “That ungrateful, how dare he?”Ivan released her wrist and stepped back, shaking his head in disbelief. “Yes, he told me everything. And I still can't believe you of all people would do that to me, I thought father was the bad one. Because he left when we were young, but now I see you for your true colors. I thought the problem was Nathaniel, all this time, I thought it was just him acting out of spite, but it was you pulling the strings. You did everything you could to make sure we would never be happy. And for what? Your pride? Your obsession with control, money? Did you stop for once your think about me?“Mrs. Carlos’ eyes flickered between Ivan and me, her face contorted with a mixture of fury and panic. “I did it to protect you!” she spat.

The loud banging on the door drew our attention, and I immediately stood up. "Wait here, baby. Don’t come out until I say so." I told Kelly “Okay, mommy.“ She nodded, her wide eyes filled with fear, as I closed the door behind me. My heart pounded as I made my way to the living room. The constant hammering on the door sent chills down my spine. Who could it be? The first thought that flashed through my mind was Ivan's fans. Maybe they hadn’t accepted my statement on the news and had come to confront me in person.Brenda appeared from the laundry room, her expression mirroring my own, fear. We were both terrified of who might be on the other side of that door. I stepped forward to check, but Brenda held up a hand, stopping me."You should go back," she whispered urgently. "I’ll open the door and see who it is.""It’s too dangerous. I can’t let you do that," I whispered back, glancing toward the kitchen as a possible hiding place in case it really was Ivan's fans."I’m scared, V," she
