Pablo was still yet to return when I noticed a young girl standing at the entrance of our room. She had a tense look as she walked to us with a white wine. I don't remember asking for a white wine. She dropped the wine as she whispered something to me.“ Read the note," she said as she narrowed her eyes to the wine and I saw that there was a note under the wine she kept,“ Hey you, what are you doing here, juniors like you don't serve VIPs," I heard a man say and her back immediately stiffened." I'm sorry sir, I…I…,"“ I asked her to bring it," I said to the man who I guess must be her senior,The girl quickly used the opportunity to sneak away, “ Sorry for any inconveniences," he apologized,“ It's okay," I said and he nodded before walking out of the room,I turned to Leo and he just shrugged as he picked his cutleries to start eating but I narrowed my eyes at him and he quickly dropped them back with a scowl, we couldn't start eating without signing the document and Pablo wasn't
Everything was going as planned, but why was there something in my heart telling me something was going to go wrong? Just this morning I was very happy that my plan worked. I have been getting calls from both my parents and his parents but I didn't pick any. I knew they would still look for a way to make that wedding work and I didn't want that. I didn't want them to make anything work and I'm sure that was what was bothering me. “Shit,” I groaned as I ran my fingers through my hair dropping the pen I was holding as I walked to my window. “ You know pushing you down that window doesn't seem like a bad idea now that I think about it," I suddenly heard the voice of one of the people I wish would just disappear from this world. My cousin, Emilia. “ What are you doing in my office Emilia?" I asked without turning to acknowledge her as I kept staring into nothingness, “ You're so full of yourself," she said with bitterness and I couldn't help but roll my eyes, “ What do you expe
I played light music in my car, humming to it as I drove to Rodrigo’s house. I just needed to be away from my family and their crazy passion of marrying me off.I drove into Rodrigo's mansion as I parked my car in front of his house and stepped out.“ Hey troll," Rodrigo said as soon as I stepped out of the car and I couldn't be but roll my eyes, “ Your face is boring," I said and he chuckled as we both walked into his house together.As soon as I reached his sitting room I fell on the couch in exhaustion. “ What's wrong? You look down compared to this morning, what changed?" Rodrigo asked, " I don't know Rodrigo, I just feel like something is off, like that man is planning something and I have no way around, it's just driving me crazy,” I said with a sigh," Hey chill, it's just your head messing with you, you came here to celebrate, not sulk,” he said as he handed me a glass of wine and I took it muttering a 'thank you’ " You're right, I'm letting this get to me, what are we hav
It felt like déjà vu, like I was watching a horror movie replay.I knew it, I knew that something was definitely going to go wrong, I should have listened to my instinct, I should have just listened.I turned to Rodrigo and he looked like he'd rather be anywhere but here.Everyone, and when I say everyone, I meant my nosy ass whole family, my aunties, uncles, cousins even Emilia was here. “ What is the meaning of this? Why did you lie to me Lucia?" I turned to my cousin who looked like she would disappear out of here any second. “ I'm sorry," she whispered. I have a feeling that she was forced to do this and she played the perfect actress like someone who was held at gunpoint.I finally turned to the culprit who was on one knee with a big bouquet in his hand, in fact the entire place was covered with flowers.“ What are you doing in my house Antonio? Why don't you go to your other woman?" I asked in anger," Please my dear, hear my son out, he's sorry, he has apologized and nothing
“ Ouch Rodrigo, why did you do that?" I groaned in pain as I tried to soothe the spot Rodrigo just pinched." I just wanted to make sure it's really you standing in front of me? Are you being serious right now?” he asked, his face an embodiment of shock. “ Chill Rodrigo, I should have done this sooner rather than go through all those dramas, now think about this," I said and he watched me with his hands folded looking at me like I had gone crazy.“ Okay, I'm listening, even if I know you're not thinking straight right now I'll still listen,” he said,“ Antonio hates me and I hate him more. What do you think would happen if we both get married and I become his biggest torture, I've done it once without the marriage, what do you think I'll do in the marriage?" I asked with a raised brow waiting for his response. “ You seem to forget that we were in highschool and he was a young boy who couldn't walk, now look at him….. “he said as his eyes went to Antonio who was talking to my Mom…. “
I looked at myself in the mirror and I couldn't help but smile, I looked like a goddess that just graced the earth with her beautiful presence.My wedding dress was a beautiful gown with elegance and timeless beauty. Its bodice was crafted from delicate lace, intricately embroidered with floral motifs that cascade down to the flowing skirt.The skirt had layers of soft tulle, each layer shimmering with a subtle sheen. A delicate train behind, adorned with delicate beading that catches the light. The dress features a low back, showcasing a hint of skin while maintaining a sense of sophistication. I wouldn't want them talking about an indecent bride would I? Overall, the dress was beautiful and perfectly made for me. I'd have to thank the designer after the wedding. “ Oh my gosh you look absolutely gorgeous," my friend Mickey said as she fanned herself and I couldn't help but smile. Leave Mickey to be overly dramatic.“ Yeah, she does look beautiful but nothing prepared me for the fa
“ I, Lillian Camilla Vincent, take you, Antonio Giovanni Gonzalez as my lawfully wedded husband, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, till death do us part,” I said, as I slid the ring on his finger. I'm sure if anyone was looking closely or paying attention they would have noticed my fingers crossed, I couldn't lie in the presence of God now, could I?“ Now, your turn gentleman," the minister said as he turned to Antonio,... " Repeat after me please,” he said as he started speaking and Antonio repeated after him." I, Antonio Giovanni Gonzalez take you, Lillian Camilla Vincent as my lawfully wedded wife, to love and cherish, in sickness and in health, in good and bad times, until death do us part,” he said and I couldn't help but smirk,He wouldn't have to worry about the ‘Till death do us part’ because we're not even going to be married for long, this was all for show. He slid the ring into my finger and I could see something shine in his eyes like a brewing storm, he
I know she was purposely doing this to annoy me, she kept laughing and hitting my shoulder as she listened to her best friend talk about their shenanigans as children.She was having fun, well, she should have all the fun she wants now, I'll have my fun later. “ My best friend is a good person and I hope that her husband really cherishes her," he said and I couldn't help but scoff.I'm sure he knows everything happening and knows that we don't fucking love each other, then what was he saying? And what good person was he talking about? Was it the same woman sitting beside me or someone else.What was even more shocking was that all her friends were saying the same thing about her being a good person. It's either they were scared of telling her the truth or she bewitched them. They all kept praising her and I just watched them in boredom.“ Are you jealous? You should get friends like mine," she whispered to my ear,“ Nahh, I wouldn't like to be surrounded by crackheads like that," I
