“What is all the fuss about?” Charles asked as he saw staff going in and out of the house from his window. “Mrs Vale invited a catering service to come to serve Japanese food,” the girl standing behind him said. “I have told you not to address her as that,” Charles said slowly. He never approved of Abigail and will never approve of her. His son Edward had defiled him and gone ahead to marry her against his will. Ana gulped as she did not know the right way to address the woman. She was married to Edward Vale and had taken his last name, all of her official papers carried that name but Charles had victimized her about it for fourteen years now. Charles had forbidden them from referring to her as the lady of the house as well. It was part of that reason that he openly accepted Cade when he came and put him in the family tree while hiding the fact that he was an illegitimate child. His son had declared his undying love for his wife when they eloped and married and then came back to t
Cade left them in the room and Harper tried to follow him out. “Cade Cade Cade” she kept repeating his name as she followed after him. He stopped at the base of the stairs and turned back to her. “What are you doing here?” he asked her. She giggled and then tried to pull a straight face. It was obvious she was drunk. Harper had been so nervous about the situation that she had a glass and two of wine before making it out there. If one did not look closely at her they would think she was sober when in fact she was tipsy. “You are drunk?” he said in the form of a question. “Oh my, that is scary, you still know me so well” she gasped as she walked to him. “What is scary? If one looks well they can tell that you are drunk” Cade said taking a step to the first step to create space between them.“Do you still love me?” she asked clapping her hands excitedly. “Why is everyone doing this to me today?” Cade said under his breath. “Who else did this to you?”“My girlfriend asked me if I w
“What do you say about us getting engaged today?”“What?” Ophelia asked her hand dropping from her face. She was preparing to go out shopping, she had nothing to do and shopping was the best option for her. She would go out and spend as much money as she could. “Let us get engaged today,” he said again. “What has got your panties in a rush?”“That is not an appropriate thing to say to a grown man” Cade let out shocked that she would say something like that to him. “Why? Don’t you wear panties?” she teased. Maybe teasing him would help her relieve some of the stress she was feeling as regards the statement he had made. “I do….” he trailed off. “That is beside the point, the point I am trying to drive at is that I think we should have the engagement today. However, you want it to be public or private”“Don’t you think you are rushing things and jumping the gun here?” Ophelia let out a strained voice. “Rushing it? We are going to get married at the end of the day so doing it earlier
Ophelia and Cade met at the house and to ease the awkwardness of him coming clean about his family to her he suggested that they do a house tour. Ophelia knew the house like the back of her hand but to put him at ease she agreed and followed along. She had chosen the house by herself when she was still much younger. Her father had told her he would give it to her when she got married because she loved the house too much and she had been excited about it at that time, shortly after that she saw the dark side of marriage and suddenly it was no longer enticing to live there. “I got this wedding gift from my dad when I was six years” she let out as they went from room to room. It was well-furnished and perfect. She noticed that her dad had kept the same design but had updated it with newer technology. It must have been a difficult task but of course, Mr Carter Frost was equal to the task. “Six years? Was he preparing to marry you off to some rich old man?” Cade joked trying to wear off

After the talk with Cade, they decided to have their engagement party that weekend. Ophelia had suggested he gathered his f
“Ophelia?”Ophelia whipped her head to the open door and to Green standing by the doorway. “What are you doing here?” she murmured a bit angry. “You still mad at me yeah?”“Of course, I am,” Ophelia said taking off the covers from her body and pausing her movie before turning to him. “I am here to say I am sorry,” Green said. “Stop saying sorry, it is quite annoying,” Ophelia said taking away the lock of hair in her face and tucking it behind her ears. “I am only saying it because I am sorry” Green responded. He tried to come in but since he could not read the expression on her face, he could not tell if she was angry or not. “It is not because I am angry, I just felt that you did not trust I would make a good choice regarding my life” Ophelia let out. “Is that how you felt?” Green asked and she nodded. “It is not how I wanted it to be passed across, I was worried about you. You know nothing about this man and yet you are trying to get into a lifetime relationship with this man”
Harper had been beating herself up after showing up to Cade’s house drunk and potentially embarrassing herself. When Cael had come to pick her up, he had promised that they would be in touch and even hinted a bit that they might become family in the near future. Cael might have been supportive of her plans to land Cade as her husband but seeing the news about Cade and Ophelia’s wedding it was obvious that Cael did not have the power to do anything as he promised her. She was going to swallow her shame and contact him, she had to swallow her shame to leave Starlit Haven to be here and now she believed that it would not be too much for her to reach out to Cael and ask him of his plans. She had thought she was having help from within the family but it turns out she was on her own now. “Hello, Mr. Cael?” “Mr Cael Vale’s office how can I help you?” an unfamiliar voice rang over the phone. “Is this not his personal line?” she asked. The man at the other end of the line took a deep bre
Cael had gone to the restaurant they had agreed to meet beforehand to wait for her. If a shrink and told him that he would be resorting to a loveless arranged marriage he would have called the shrink a fake and even found a way to put him behind bars but now that it was happening to him he could not believe it still.He knew what Frances looked like, unlike Ophelia who his brother was getting married to Frances had always been the model child every chaebol would want to have. She stayed out of the news and wore only designer clothes. Whenever her family came up in the media her and her sister Estelle’s names were missing from there.They had so much money but lived such quiet lives that one tends to forget about them from time to time. Estelle had gotten married to an oil tycoon from the eastern world. Some speculated that she was the third wife to the rich man but her personal life was never plastered on the media. Frances entered the restaurant and her eyes darted everywhere. Cael
