"Yeah, sure," Cadeau found herself responding.
Akarui opened the door to the rooftop, he poked his head first and led her out.
"Wow, did you ask them to do all this?" Cadeau asked, taking slow steps next to him.
"Mmh not really per say," he responded with a crooked smile.Though she could clearly see he did. the place was fairly bright with ferry lights dancing around the tent house shielding from the cold to form a huge sleeping pad like.
The fire lighted at the center danced in flames creating a camp like glow that made everything seem romantic, and make Cadeau to start fantasizing about turning to Akarui and kissing him to passion stretching out on the floor beside him and making love in the shadows of the flames facing the spaced stars above.No. Cadeau shook her head. this was probably because Lijie's picture of making love to Amanda was stuck in her head and she couldn't get it out.Rather than sitting around t
It was almost eleven fifteen as Cadeau sat there, her foot tapping slowly as she sank in the wooden dinning chair the following morning. The coffee was going cold next to the beacon and bread set out on the table, the fire was crackling softly, Fei Hong was in the kitchen, and for the first time she felt blank.She kept on replaying the images from the previous night, and wondered if Akarui was really trying to win her heart or he was trying to get her in his bed? All over sudden he was attentive and caring, when days before he was rude and didn't care, he even tried to kiss her by force. But again, she could not overlook the fact that he apologized for everything and wanted to restart things over.The voice at the back kept saying he was still Lijie's friend, what if he also woke up one day and decided he was nolonger in love with her, what would happen then. She lifted the cup and set it back down. "Fei Hong?" she called out, "can you please bring me an
* * *Meanwhile, Akarui flicked the Jeep's headlights and continued down the road. It was getting dark, and by the time he would get back to the apartment, Cadeau would be asleep.Still focused and determined to set things right between him, Cadeau and his ex-fiance Endian Cheng, or rather his current fiance cause given the circumstances he hadn't had got the time to break up with her.The two had set to marry on the same day as Lijie and Cadeau's wedding, but a month before Endian Cheng received news that her father was found with cancer and was in a critical condition, hence she had to fly out to attend to him.Akarui glanced towards the box lying on the seat beside him, it was a welcome gift to cheer Endian Cheng up, and then break the ice on her head to her say he had gotten married to Cadeau instead.He took a slow breath, remembering their conversation as they sat watching a serie
They say the truth shall set you free_ but what if you choose to be a prisoner to set the one you Love free.?"...Cadeau, Akarui is the reason you didn't get married to Lijie!....." she shouted. "What did you say..?" Cadeau sniffled quietly, tears threatening to spill from her eyes.-Cadeau woke up to the sound of wrenching knuckles dabbling gently on her bedroom door. She turned sideways pretending she heard nothing. But as the knock persisted, she slowly opened her eyes and shouted, "come in."She waited till she heard the footsteps approaching, and then she turned on her left averting her gaze upwards and said. "Good morning Remy,?" and closed her eyes back to sleep.The woman did not respond, instead she reached forward and pulled the covers off Cadeau's body."it's already nine in the morning Cadeau. wake up and go to bath. Besides, Fleur is waiting for you downstairs to have breakfast,""Nooo
– – –At the same time. Lijie walked out of the immigration office doors dragging he's suitcase and walked straight to where he's car and chauffeur where standing.And immediately Bahai put up a smile and walked to open the door for him, "Good morning sir," he said and grabbed the suitcase out of Lijie's hands." What is good about the morning? Beijing makes me sick." He replied and pulled the passenger's seat-door open and got in.He switched on he's phone and then typed a message to Akarui 'Good morning Bro. I was asking if you can rehearse with Cadeau even today? it's just that I've arrived and I feel very tired though I'll see her at the venue later in the afternoon. Ohh and please don't tell her I've arrived.' He added a pleading emoji clicked the send button. He waited for a delivery report and then switched it back off."Head to the office" he told Bahai."okay sir, but just a reminder on your schedule, I was told yo
When Cadeau received the message from Akarui she was already at the mall shopping with Fleur and Natasha, though she was disappointed by Lijie's late coming she couldn't help panic if he was gonna make it on time to the venue to see if everything was according to what they wanted.She picked a dress but then again left it, she looked at where Fleur and Natasha had been standing a moment ago and figured they where in the fitting room, she unlocked her phone and typed a message to say she had gone to the jewellery section,"we'll find you there," Tasha replied,she walked there and started looking for a pair of earrings or necklace she could pair with the evening dress she chose to wear for the appreciation party the night after the wedding. She was looking at the necklaces, bracelets, bangles, rings, anklets and all other accessories displayed but still didn't like any, she moved closer to the necklaces looking gracefully one by one, everything
She looked at him and back to the picture before walking to her mom who was now standing with the workers."Mom?""princess," she excused herself, "is everything okay,? she raised her chin up "where you crying?""no it's nothing..it's the picture, nevermind,""ohh..I see you liked Akarui's surprise. But tell me, is the rest okay,?""yeah, am not even concerned about that_it's about you, you know am going to miss you?_ with no one to wake me up, scold me for missing breakfast, complaining about work, who will be there Mom,?" She faced the herm of her dress "there's a lot of things we do together and am going to miss each and every one of them. Yes, I might be coming to visit every weekend but that won't just equate it cause am scared everything I'll do will remind me of you,""are you saying goodbye my love?," Mrs wan held her daughters face_with battling demons of emotions forcing their way through the cornea of her eyes tears
"He has gone? How rude." Natasha protested after he disappeared, "he didn't even greet me or anyone else, you were busy talking like me and Akarui don't exist. He didn't even greet his mother-in-law over there,"pearls of laughter escaped Cadeau's mouth and she looked at Akarui, "she doesn't know everything is invisible to Lijie when he's talking to me.." she clasped her chest; "poor thing- Lijie only sees me, the rest are shadows,""what? you mean am a shad.. ?Cadeau come back here!" she spran after her, "wait till I catch you..."suddenly before Cadeau could dodge Tasha for the third time_ she slipped on the glass pearls, sending her body to the ground^"Cadeau!!" Tasha's leg muscles instantly tightened with adrenaline as everyone's eyes turned, It was dead silent for seconds..But luckily Akarui caught her before she could kiss the floor...Mrs Wan was the first one to come back to her senses as the shock of what almos
_When they reached home Fleur and Guerrier were saying goodbye to Akarui just there at the door step before they could go in. Cadeau got out and walked to them as she let her mom reverse the car into the courage, "I'll walk you out," she told him as he turned to walk to he's car."you shouldn't have bothered..." he said as he reached he's car and opened the driver's seat,"I know, but I wanted to. Actually I just wanted to talk to someone I've been feeling tense the whole day, ""wait, have you been crying?""No,of course not-i just had a pretty long conversation with mum and tell you what? she's more worried about tomorrow than i am." " don't worry everything Wii be okay," he pulled her in an embrace, " you'll see, it will be like magic.."she relaxed in he's embrace and mumbled a "thank you.""it's alright," he whispered back. "what colour are popcorns?""what popcorns?..Akarui stop messing with my hea

"You know," Lijie began, smiling. "Mum was asking me what we were thinking to name the baby after me and Akarui," he bounced deliberately, to entertain the baby in his arms. "Dad did too," Amanda said grinning, she tossed her long hair carelessly and added, "but it was because I love the names, like they just rhymes in my mouth, Lijie Akarui_Hero light," As if in answer, the baby clapped his tiny hands and chortled in a giggle. Amanda kissed his forehead with a playful tone and curved her mouth slightly, "see he agrees, besides, I wanted him to have the best of both worlds. You and Akarui are amazing," she stepped near as his breath hitched in her throat. Her right arm went around his neck and drew him closer to whisper in his ear in a sexy tone, "this child is going to be the most spoiled brat they'll ever see cause he's got you and Akarui on his side." Lijie whistled softly, as he and Amanda took the seats opposite each other. "You got it on tha

Today Cadeau woke up happy, by eight o'clock sharp she made sure she was inside the Li family company gates.She knew Lijie was back and in he's office and that was the best part. She had purposely told Tasha to stay back for today so she could properly talk to Lijie with no disturbances.She fixed her dress and hair properly and hurried to the downstair cafe to grab two cups of hot chocolate one for her and one for Lijie. she walked to the elevator and before she could press it open a tall bold man with a handsome physic pressed it for her.She didn't pay attention and walked in and like he also knew where she was going, he pressed for the 5th floor and stepped back, not having seen Cadeau behind and trying to avoid her, he's foot foot suddenly connected with the kerb and stumbled back plunging everything he had in his hands on the ground."Am sorry," he quickly said and knelt down to pick them, then something caught
It was early in the morning around six, Akarui was shut behind his office door, going through the documents Ying had provided.After an hour or so, he stewed in his chair for a moment, looked as though he would like to punch something then ploughed to his feet, listening to his phone on the other end then talked."Interrogate each and every observer that was present and find out what really happened," He swallowed and commanded.
