Both Cade and Ophelia had no idea that nine days would rush so fast and that they would be standing face-to-face at the altar. Ophelia looked behind Cade and his grandfather was sitting there with the broadest smile on his face. She searched the blank face of her mother-in-law, she saw the depth of sorrow in her eyes as she watched the scene unfold before her eyes.

Beside her way her son, Cael with his plus one Frances Gates. They had tried to penetrate the media space but could only get as much as a column spot to talk about their relationship.

Ophelia wondered why she had agreed to this wedding now that she was faced with tying the knot, did she have to face the family of her husband and their tactics?

Cade had made sure to prepare her for the likely things she would face, Abigail always found a way to do something devious at one point or another. Ophelia had been confident that nothing they did as a family would get to them. She had no business seeing them after all, they were g

    Cade and Ophelia entered the house and sat down on the couch in the living room. They had just made it back from the wedding ceremony, they had ended everything earlier since it was not like they had more things to do. “Uggh” Ophelia exclaimed as she pushed herself further into the chair. “What is it?” Cade asked looking at her from the corner of his eyes. Her eyes were shut closed which made her look so peaceful and calm. “Can’t I exclaim?” she was in defence mode, it felt like he was trying to judge her. “Of course you can I just wanted to know,” he said confused. The books she had successfully delivered to him made men seem this way, overcaring about everything and even encouraging their women to talk more. “My legs hurt so much” she added with a groan. “I can remember clearly telling you to change but you insisted on keeping on the heels to look good in case anyone took a picture of you unawares” he said before raising his head to look at her legs. “Thank you for the remind

    Ophelia got inot the room and shut the door before locking it with the key, she placed her back on the door and put her hand across her beating heart. She replayed the event in her mind to see what he had done that was so special causing her heart to beat as rapidly as it was but she found nothing.“What is wrong with you Ophelia Rainbow Frost?” she asked herself loudly and then stopped to laugh at herself. She walked to the mirror to look at herself, Did her name change to Vale now that she was married to him?“I always liked my name, it always reminded me that we have no frozen rainbows and that they only last for a short time but they are always so beautiful, that it was hard to look away. “One more thing to talk to him about” She turned to the back of her dress and sighed, she wondered why these dresses were made in this manner, it was as if they wanted the person wearing the dress to be unable to take it off themselves. She needed help and she knew she could not ask him. They w

    “Come let us eat this” Cade said with two plates in hand as he walked to the dining table. “Okay we are eating there” she murmured following him. He set down the plates opposite each other and waited to choose a side before sitting down. “You made this?” she asked looking down at her plate to see the pasta meal, she wondered how much time she had spent upstairs for him to have enough time to make this. “Yes,” he beamed as if he had been waiting for her to give him that compliment. “Why don’t you try it?” he gestured to her. She smiled taking away the hair that had fallen to her face and wrapping it around the bundle of hair behind her head. She never took food as a joke and was well-invested in having good meals. She would be elated if the meal before her turned out to be a fantastic one. “Are you confident in your skills?” she asked taking up the cukterly and swirling it in between her fingers. “Of course, I am not just the nation's boyfriend for nothing” he smirked. She took

    “Let us talk about our sleep arrangements” she said and he nodded. “Okay go on”“Why are you asking me to go first?” Ophelia asked tilting her head. “Because looking at your eyes you look like you have a lot to say at the moment,” he said sipping from his cup before adding “A lot” “Yes, I do have a lot to say, but you might want to say one or two things,” She said. She did not want to seem self-centred and be the one always talking about herself and what she wanted without caring about him. “I have no conditions no expectations so you can tell me and I will do my best to follow them after all we are in this relationship because I need it so badly” he answered and she nodded. “You are not expecting us to have sexual relations are you?” she asked and he choked coughing loudly. When she said sleeping arrangements she did not think he would be talking about sleeping together and now he wondered why he thought so narrow-minded about it. “Is that a wrong question?” she asked turning

    Cade lay on the bed with his face towards the ceiling, he had been staring at the ceiling for some time the playback of their conversation running through his mind. He tried to understand her standpoint point but for some reason, his own judgment could not allow him to see her point of view clearly. Maybe he was been biased thinking of himself only. “It was not too strange that she is asking us to abstain” he said to himself turning to his side. As he turned his eyes caught the clock. It had been an hour since he laid down and for some reason, his mind could not shut down so he could sleep. “Cade Fred Vale” he said sitting up and calling his name as though he was trying to call himself to order. “This is no time to worry about such things” he said and stood up going to the floor and trying to tire himself out. Maybe if he did some exercise he would be too tired to think about their conversation and just sleep off. The party stress must have not been enough to knock him out at once.

    Ophelia stopped at a store from her run back, she was going to gift him something to apologize even though she did not feel as though she had done anything wrong. She was being honest with herself but she knew that their being at loggerheads was going to affect the way they acted in public and they did not need all that drama at all. She did not know his preference so she did not know what to get him instead she got him something very pricey without considering if he would like it or not. The issue was not the gift because any gift she was about to gift to him, she was sure he could afford it. She just wanted to give the gesture so he would not be mad anymore. She would have gotten him a custom-made gym wear if she had enough time but she settled with getting him an ordinary set.She waited in the living room for him so there was no way for him to run away from her. She heard him come in and the door open. She picked up the paper bag and bottled water she had prepared and went to sta

    Surprisingly Ophelia agreed to make up with Cade at that moment and they agreed that having meals together while being friends was not too much as long as they did not overdo it."Let us make a pinky swear that none of us will fall in love with the other party," she said stretching her pinky to him."A pinky swear? What are you five?" he asked amused by her mind and the way it worked."Well, a pinky swear was never said to only be done by children, adults can totally make pinky swears" she said a frown and warning expression on her face."Okay, so I totally agree with you that none of us should fall in love with the other and to make it better I do not believe in love but..""Don't you dare say what if, it is impossible and will never happen so just swear now" She cut him off before he could paint a scenario. She feared that any scenario he might make up might make sense making her consider it if it ever came up."Just look at it like a ten-year contract strictly business" she explain

    Cade and Ophelia went down to the car and he drove her to the venue of her meeting with her friends. As they approached the venue, Ophelia began to think of the possibility that her friends might recognize eCade but she did not think too much about it. Cade had always been that popular guy even when they were in school. Almost all girls who like to party knew that one guy who spent a lot while partying."Do you want me to wait till you are done?" Cade asked as he pulled up into the car park of the restaurant."Do you want to?" Ophelia asked taking off her seat belt and turning to face him."Well I have no idea how long it might take you so I don't know" he said shrugging as he mirrored her action."It might take us a while since it's been a while since we were all together in the same place so I don't think waiting for me is the right thing to do" Ophelia told him.He bit the corner of his lips as he thought. If he dropped her off and allowed her to use a taxi service home he would no

    "I did not think that you would help me out," Harper said to Green with a smile on her face. She had called him about a week ago to tell him that Ophelia and Cade were now locked in. Green had been so angry about it. He waited years for Ophelia, only for her to end up Cade. He had expected that he could pull them apart, but now he was hearing that she was together with Cade and they loved each other now.When they kept telling the public that they were deeply locked in, he could tell that she was doing this just because her father asked her to do it. He waited, hoping that there would be a time when they went their separate ways and then he would swoop in to save the damsel in distress."I refuse to lose to Cade.""I like how you think," Harper said, and her phone began to ring. She took up her phone and stared at the screen. "Ophelia is calling me?" She murmured, looking at the screen, her eyes growing wide and wider."What are you waiting for? Pick it up," Green urged her."I should

    Frances was sitting in a coffee shop; she had gotten a message from Ophelia that they had to meet up. As much as she did not want to have to go out there to meet her, she was curious to see her face after reading the news. She had not thought to publish the news like that because she did not want to do anything that might affect Cael, be it directly or indirectly, because she still believed that they would be able to get together soon.She was however happy for whoever had taken that news and ran with it; the entire city was buzzing while waiting for a statement on the family. She felt that now that Cade was so put in the public eye, Charles might consider Cael as a better-suited candidate for the position."Did I keep you waiting for long?" Ophelia asked as she sat down.Frances swallowed as she saw how good she looked; she was tempted to almost comment on it; she did not look like she had seen the news. "No, I just sat down a minute ago," she said, and Ophelia nodded."Have you orde

    THREE DAYS AFTER THE WEDDING TUESDAY MORNING "Honey" Ophelia sat by the side of the bed shaking Cade; his eyes opened slowly as he wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her in."Good morning, darling," he said and pouted, waiting for a kiss. She closed her eyes and bent down to kiss his lips. "That was so short," he said, his eyes opening wider. "Something is wrong; what is wrong?" he asked, his eyes catching a glimpse of the frown on her face. "What happened?" he asked, sitting in bed quickly."You might want to see this," she said, taking her phone and giving it to him. He took the phone from her hand and sat up straight. He read through the screen as his eyes widened with each statement he came across."What is this?""The number one trending news in the city this morning.""From what source?""Apparently it started as a rumour from a blog but when the reporters reached out to Abigail yesterday evening for an interview, she did not confirm or deny it so they are just carry

    "My mom wanted you here, but I never did, so it is crazy that you are trying to force me to sleep with you," Cael scoffed as they sat on the bed in the room. They had been so preoccupied with other things that it was the night of the wedding that they all realized that they did not have a house, so they went back to the mansion.Charles had taunted them for their poor planning; Cael could not believe that his grandfather had not stepped up to do anything concerning the wedding even after he had leaked the secret to him. He was feeling overwhelmed by the situation and was now convinced that his grandfather was doing the right thing by not allowing him to be the next in line for succession. Even when he had leaked the secret of the wedding to Charles, he did not do anything about it.Even this evening, when they got back to the house after the wedding, Charles was not shocked to see them back at the mansion; he just nodded his head at them and retired to his room. He did not know why he

    "You look so beautiful," Fiona gushed over her daughter as she entered the room."I do?" Frances asked, and her mother nodded."Like the star of the show that you are," she murmured, and Frances smiled.She had been so busy stressing and preparing for the wedding that she feared she might not look good in any of the images because of how stressed she was. She felt good to receive a compliment from her mother considering how shallow she was; she would be into complimenting something or else she found it appealing to the eyes."I hope you remember all I have been telling you." Fiona said, and Frances nodded.Her mother had basically turned it into an anthem that was engraved in her mind. She had told her to make sure to get pregnant between the first few weeks of pregnancy so she could have an edge over Ophelia, who was still yet to show any signs of having a baby. She also told her to make sure she sucked up to Charles, even though they all knew how almost impossible that might be."Do

    THE FAY OF THE WEDDING Ophelia's eyes fluttered open as she turned to Cade sleeping beside her. She felt his hand that had been holding her head up all night. She snuggled into him and felt his hand pull her in closer."Are you awake?" she murmured, trying to look at his face from her position."No," he drew out, and she laughed."You are asleep yet talking?" she said, and he tried to nod but was failing badly because of the pillow."I talk in my sleep," he added, and she gave him a frown."Then sleep and talk some more. I want to go get myself a cup of tea," she said, trying to stand up from the bed, but his hand on her wrist pulled her back, and she dropped to his chest."What are you doing?" she asked, propping herself up with her hand on his chest."I think you forgot something," he said with a pout and his eyes closed.She traced his pouted lips with her fingertip. "And what can that be?" she asked, feigning ignorance."I know that you very well know what I am talking about," he

    A FEW DAYS TO THE WEDDING"I have something to report," Paul said, coming into Charles's office. He had been working in the background to make sure that Aigail and Cael's plan did not work. He knew that they had been so busy with the board meeting, and he had to work too. He was not going to sit down and assume that since he was the chairman, everyone was supposed to be automatically loyal to him.He was meeting with all of the board members and directors while trying to know their stand on the matter; for most of them, they kept trying to play both sides and see which side would favour them. Charles lowered the glasses from his face and dropped them so they dangled by a rope on his neck.The entire company was so tense that even a child could tell that something was up. The staff were trying their best to be careful not to choose sides so they did not find themselves jobless after the board meeting. Everyone was walking on eggshells since the chairman was no longer working from home

    Harper stared at her phone in hand; she could not believe that they were trying to discard her. She read the message over and over again, and she could not lie; it did not make any sense to her. What was she supposed to do? She had just boasted to her housemate about how well her plan was going, and now she had to abort the mission. And for what reason?Hello Harper, Abigail does not need your help with Cade anymore and she would like you to move out of the house within a month.-FrancesShe had closed her lease and moved into the house, and now they wanted her gone within a month? She was not going to allow them to bully her; she dialled the number once again and pressed the phone to her ears. The dial tone rang once and then beeped dead as if it were cut from the other end. She tried calling Abigail and Cael as well, but they were both not picking up.She could tell from her interaction today that Cade had finally realized his feelings for Ophelia and this was going to be the end fo

    "Meeting with investors is tiring," Cael murmured, sitting in his chair, after the person they had been meeting with walked out. None of the members had said that they were giving them their support, and yet his mom seemed full of energy, as if the day had only started."You have been a good sport and on your best behaviour all day; just one more person and we can call it a day," Abigail replied, turning to him and tapping his thighs gently."Can't we just call it a day now?" He groaned, feeling tired. All he had done since lunch was sucking it up to different old bald men who did not seem interested in helping him anyway. He wondered how long he had to continue doing that with them."As I said, this is really important, and it took me so much to get to agree to see us under such short notice; the best you can do here is just do the right thing," Abigail murmured, losing her patience. After what had happened, she was not ready to allow all of these men to trample over her for no reaso
