Chapter 104: The Promise
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56~"And there goes my mind racing
And you are the reasonThat I'm still breathingI'm hopeless now"~The sound of the melodic tune oscillated thoroughly around the venue of Braeton's biggest wedding of the decade.
On the stage, a famous singer was singing the song 'You Are The Reason' by Calumn Scott.
It set the mood along with the cascading white curtains on the sides of the ballroom, adding elegance to the hanging chandeliers from the ceiling and further romanticizing the stretching wisteria flowers that flowed down along the gleaning blue crystals from above.
As everyone stood next to their long yet opulent golden tables, their heads were turned to the woman of the day, Gabrielle Taylor, soon to be... Gabrielle Taylor-Wright.
From Gabrielle's colleagues in the entertainment industry, the Cromwell family, representatives of Freedonia's royal family, Kyle's executives from the company, business partners, the ent

"How did it all started between me and Kyle?" Gabrielle flushed while holding the microphone in her hand. She was sitting on a lavish golden couch on stage next to Kyle, sharing their love story with everyone. She smiled and said, "I wish I could say, we started out as friends or it was a slow burn romance, but no. Things pretty much escalated quickly." Gabrielle turned to Kyle, standing next to her, also holding a microphone in his hand. After seeing a nod from her man, she looked back at the eager guests, ogling at them and waiting for the story to unfold. "It all." Her smile grew wider before she confessed, "In all honesty... it all started... with a kiss." Awws and ooohs quickly filled the air with everyone curious about what Gabrielle meant. She gave a mild sneer before explaining, "Just to make everything clear, I am not the type to just... kiss a stranger, but my circumstance clouded my judgment and after a few glasses of wine, I seemed to have l
I Kissed A CEO And He Liked It! Chapter 106: Around 16 Years Ago
FLASHBACK: Around sixteen years ago. "Remind me again why we are here." At sixteen years old, the young Kyle Wright had his eyes narrowed, looking at the campsite filled with young teens from different schools. He swayed his head disapprovingly before looking at his sister, Kenzie. Kenzie merely chuckled and said, "Kyle! This may very well be, our last chance at getting a normal teen life! Come on! A year from now and we are off to college! Are you forgetting how we have accelerated our studies?! Life is short, Kyle! We have to mingle and meet other teens too!" With a punch on his shoulder, Kenzie added, "Especially you! Nerdy!" "There are middle schoolers here," Kyle complained. Kenzie laughed again and while dragging her luggage, she grabbed Kyle's hand, suggesting, "So what?! Come on, Kyle! Let's go and join the orientation!" After a year of convincing, finally, Kenzie Wright managed to persuade her twin brother to join that year's Braeton's summer camp, annually held within

FLASHBACK CONTINUATION: Day two to three at the camp. "I choose." With eyes tightening, Kyle glanced at Gaby from the other group, who was equally anxious of his decision. "I chose Gaby and Trisha." It was because the camp supervisor realized how Kyle's group only had two female members, which made it unfair for the rest of the teams, that a swap has to be made. Kyle had to give up two of his male teammates for two other girls. Almost all of the ladies were clamoring to be transferred into Kyle's team, but him being the leader of the group, he was given the freedom to choose who he wanted in his squad. He wasn't going to accept those girls wearing mini-skirts. There was just... no way! Not when they were playing marathons and other outdoor activities! After Kyle had chosen Trisha and Gaby, the rest of the girls sighed in regret. Others gave Gaby a nasty look. Kyle did not know why, but he was delighted to see the grumpy side

FLASHBACK CONTINUATION: Day three of the camp. "Did you hear howling?" Kyle pointed to the woody area off the trail as they slowly disappeared from the open field. His suggestion quickly made Gaby move closer to him, looking at the unlighted part of the pasture. She frowned as her mouth fell open before turning to him with a punch in the arm. "I thought it was a dog, not a wolf!" "Dogs... howl too, Gaby!" He said, putting an arm around her and shifting her to the other side of his tall frame. "Stay close." When they caught up with two of Gaby's roommates, she suggested, "You can leave me with them. We share the same cabin." Kyle quickly gave a malignant stare at the two older girls who were gazing back at them and quickly they understood his intent. They clamored to leave, suggesting they had other places where they need to be. "Gosh, we forgot something!" "Yeah, Gaby! We are headed back!" With j

FLASHBACK CONTINUATION: After the camp. "No word from her yet?" Kenzie asked, seeing her brother staring blankly at his phone in the living room of the Wright mansion. After seeing him shake his head, Kenzie suggested, "Maybe you gave her the wrong number!" "Do you think I am capable of making mistakes?!" Kyle answered back with a bark, raising his voice. "Calm down, will you! Maybe something is up with her! Who knows!" Kenzie suggested before taking the seat next to him. "I honestly think she liked you too!" She put her hands together and closed her eyes, saying, "Dear God, please help my brother find his true love... at the right time and at the right place." Turning to Kyle, she asked, "There! You happy!" "Quit it, Kenzie!" Kyle got up, leaving his sister alone, only to sulk in his room. It had been a month since Kyle saw Gaby at the camp, yet she never called him, nor sent him a message
I Kissed A CEO And He Liked It! Chapter 110: Pregnant?
[WARNING: THIS CHAPTER IS R-18. IT CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG READERS] In an archipelago of twenty-six atolls, appreciated for long-warm weather, and luxurious private beaches, Kyle and Gabrielle had their two-week honeymoon in the Maldives. Lying in their beach cabana, completely naked, two godly frames with glowing skin, kissed by the sun, remained on top of each other, fully intertwined. Apart from the white curtains that often flew up against the wind's blow, only the surrounding lush and green vegetation provided the couple privacy from the next villa. Gabrielle did not know it was possible, but apparently, in an exclusive hideaway where villas were so spread apart on a private island, they could walk around naked on their very own beach and no one - not a single soul could see them! For almost two weeks, they had been at it, making love in their villa, in the cabana, and even under the sun, lying on

It was because the in-house doctor at the resort was a man that Kyle refused for Gabrielle to undergo an internal examination. They did, however, receive at least two kinds of pregnancy test, coming from the clinic. From inside their grandiose villa, Kyle was walking back and forth outside of the bathroom, waiting for his wife to come out. When nearly five minutes have passed, he knocked on the door impatiently, asking, "Gaby? What's taking so long? Are you okay, beautiful? Hurry up and let me see." "I'm about to come out!" He heard her yell. Standing right in front of the door, Kyle had his hands on his waist, greedy to see the pregnancy test results. His eyes became hooded and his jaws clenched, stressed by the anticipation. When Gabrielle came out, she was sweating profusely, panting. She scoffed, smiling at the end before she said, "Ready?" Kyle nodded, looking intensely into Gabrielle's hazel eyes. He replied, "I hope th

Three weeks after the check-up. Kyle had his eyes narrowed, looking at his wife. Gabrielle was sitting across from him, tasting every single one of the food the hotel had brought up for her. "No! For now. Salad is out of the question." Gabrielle shook her head, seeing the number of greens on the plate. A week ago, she aimed for a healthy meal, indulging in salads, but it gave her so much stomach gas, she did not get any sleep at all for days. Never mind the consistent farting, but the stomach pain was so hard to bear. The next plate was a chicken sandwich. She held it up and smelled it repeatedly. With a sneer on her face, she said, "Ewww. It smells gross." Grimacing at her reaction, Kyle reached for the sandwich and gave it a sniff. He asked, "What makes it gross?" "I don't know, Kyle! It just does!" She answered, unknowingly raising her voice. "Same with my Armani perfume, and even the aftershave which

Gabrielle never expected it. It was never in their talks nor did her husband hinted they would get married again on their tenth year anniversary. Imagine her surprise when he proposed to her again on the day of her commercial shoot with the children. It was such a perfect timing! In just a month, in front of their families and friends, they renewed their vows. This time, in a more breathtaking venue by the beach, the couple stood in front of an elevated platform, facing the sea.Gabrielle and Kyle had their wedding anniversary at sunrise, a perfect time to receive that day's blessings. Gabrielle, at thirty-seven, was looking radiant in her wedding dress. Kyle, at forty-three, showed more appeal than his younger years, wearing his custom-made suit. "Let's acknowledge it. We both were made perfect by God." Kyle said with confidence, smirking as he gazed at his wife during his promise. "To me, you are the most beaut

Putting down the flowers against the tomb, Kyle caressed the name that appeared on the marbled stone. He greeted, "Good morning, grandma." He turned to the one beside it, saying, "Hello, grandpa." On another grave, Kyle greeted, "Great-grandma, how have you been?" The Wright family visited the graves of the Davises; Matilda Davis, Sarah Davis, and Winfield Davis. Only Amanda and Daniel remained in their homes, merely watching through a video call. Already in their nineties, they could no longer manage to travel long distances. It was some time, two years ago, when Kyle's grandfather, Winfield, passed away. Despite Samantha bringing her mother home with them at the Wright mansion, Sarah followed her husband a few months shortly. "Daddy, who is Matilda again?" It was Gale who asked. Kyle caressed the young girl's head and called the rest of his children. He-reintroduced. He said, "Kids, remember great-gran

Another three years passed. Over time, Kyle had fully expanded business in Europe, following the successful marketing of Freedonia as a vacation destination. The Wright Diamond Corporation eventually started an online travel website, offering package tours where their hotels were exclusively located. With this development, Gabrielle and Kyle ultimately were able to bring their family to Freedonia, taking them for a tour around the gorgeous landscapes that resembled the Netherlands, plus the vast estate of the country's royal grounds. That trip was one of the most memorable ones for Kenneth, especially since he had rarely gone outdoors. All the more when the entire family settled in the Cromwell's manor, a historic, yet luxurious home, made of stones and bricks from the outside. When Kenneth and his siblings rushed to their room's balcony, their eyes widened and their mouths fell to the stunning views.

Two years passed. "Mommy! I love it!" Four-year-old Kenneth exclaimed, hugging Gabrielle and giving his Mommy a kiss! "Havaya, the best supplements for your kids! Try it!" Gabrielle said with a beautiful smile, her eyes glistening at the cameras! "And cut! Good job!" The director said after shooting a commercial that starred Gabrielle and Kenneth. It was because Gabrielle used the same supplement and had found it useful in boosting Kenneth's immune system that she willingly agreed to take the commercial. It was her very first, after many years, accepting a project. The entire time, following her, giving birth to the triplets, she produced two other shows at the BNC media on the sides, one of which received several awards, including the best action series of the year. With Denise working for her, everything was manageable. The best part was, she got to spend most of her time at home with the kids, merely going out for

Another year passed.Smiling in Kyle's arms, waiving and showing off a dimple on his right cheek, Kenneth clapped his hands, following the loud applause coming from his family."Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, happy birthday dear Kenneth! Happy birthday to you!" The entire household sang in unison from within the second-carat conference room of the Second Diamond Hotel."Happy birthday, Kenneth boy!" exclaimed Ethan. "To our handsome little Kyle!" Added Kenzie, who happened to come just for that celebration, bringing along her entire family. Kenneth's second-year birthday was a reunion not to be missed!Even Gabrielle's grandparents from Freedonia took the time to visit since they missed last year's gathering. Diana often said in passing how their years were numbered and how they wished Gabrielle would visit Freedonia, but with Kenneth's condition, it was likely not possible—at least, not anytime soon. Over the past two years, only Kyle had visited Freedonia, merely checking

"Happy Birthday, Kenneth!" With a loud round of applause, the Wright family greeted Kenneth on his very first birthday, celebrated only amongst family and close friends within the first-carat conference room of The Second Diamond Hotel. Gabrielle stood in front of an elevated platform, holding her son with Kyle next to her. They had a table ready for Kenneth to crawl to and on top was a small round cake for him to shatter! Everyone saw the delight in Kenneth's eyes as he giggled his way to reach for the white cake.While everyone cheered him on, he tasted the frosting before finally indulging! "Atta boy!" Kyle exclaimed while he watched his son, blocking the side of the table, making sure he does not fall. "Eat some more!" "Ooops! Careful!" Gabrielle exclaimed, seeing her son move towards his father, giving Kyle a piece of cake! "Dada! Dada!" Kenneth called his father, urging him to taste the white frosted chocolate cake.&nb

"Good evening! This is the late nights with Tommy Hawks! Tonight, as promised, we have Gaby Taylor - Wright, live from their home, accepting our request for an interview." Tommy announced from his studio, walking as the cameras followed him. "As you may have heard, Gaby and her family had been through a difficult time, following an attack by an obsessed fan!" Tommy shook his head, hissing before resuming, "This resulted in Gaby's life and that of the child she carried, in danger." The show quickly showed a flashback of a news broadcast, detailing the crash that happened with Gabrielle and how it was reported that her life, including her unborn child, was in danger. "Now, over three months have passed. Many of you probably have several questions and thus, we made it possible to interview Gaby without coming all the way to Hollywood!" Tommy pointed to the huge screen on his set, and the cameras were quick to follow. Gabrielle was alrea

"Mom, Dad, thanks for coming over," Gabrielle said with a smile after opening the door of their penthouse. "Of course. We are happy to look after Kenneth for this afternoon." Samantha pecked on Gabrielle's cheek and held Gabrielle's hand, saying, "You do what you have to do." Behind Samantha, Ethan nodded and suggested, "Sometimes, you need to get it out of your chest. Be safe traveling." Looking past Gabrielle, Ethan asked, "Where is my grandson?" "The nurse is giving him a bath. He... just dirtied his diapers," Gabrielle answered, looking in the direction of their living room. After inviting her in-laws inside their home, she kissed Kenneth goodbye and made her way to the lobby of The Second Diamond Hotel. Kyle was already waiting for her, together with their new driver and bodyguard. Hopping into the car, she heard her husband ask, "Are you ready for this, Gaby? Are you sure you want to see?"
