Viviana was already preparing herself to have some relaxation at the spa. She smile proudly at her reflection in front of the mirror while applying a red lipstick on her lips. She needs to wait for days only, and what she's waiting for so long will finally happened. Before taking her eyes away from the mirror she speak to herself."After so many fake cries, you are finally going to be officially mine, Tristan Hilton," she spoke while slowly walking to her bag.When she went to pick up her purse, her phone vibrated. Seeing a notification coming from her phone's screen, Tristan is calling. She quickly grabbed her phone and immediately pressed accept button. When she heard his voice she smiled happily."Do you have an initial check up now? I'll go with you," "W-What?" "I'm asking if you have a check up now with your obstetrician. Checkups are necessary already for first trimester.""Shit..." she murmured softly, frowning. Her hand clutched tightly at the phone. "What? I can't hear y
Viviana's arms is crossed on her chest. She's still annoyed that Tristan didn't even give her a chance to deepens her kiss a while ago. Tristan stopped the car on the parking lot of the hospital, Viviana then removed her seatbelt and got out of the car, without waiting for Tristan. She thinks that she can actually used her annoyance towards him, as one of a signed of a pregnant woman, and she's also looking forward for Tristan to pursue her. After she got out of the car Tristan, shook his head and also stepped out of the car. He put his car key on the pocket of his jeans, and followed Viviana, while remembering what Gabriel said about Sandra being too moody before because of pregnancy. When they already in front of a room, Tristan held Viviana's arm, making her look at him. "Can you please stopped showing me that kind of expression, Viviana? I don't want other people to think that we are having a fight," he said quietly. Viviana raised an eyebrow. "As if we're not really having a
Samantha is sitting at her workstation, sketching a design, but she keep on getting rid of the sketch and start over again, until she thinks of Tristan again and his upcoming wedding. She started to asked herself again what would it be, if she's the one who will marry him in the end? How will this turn out? She can’t help but think back to all those times they’ve spend together, and she feels like it's been ages since they last talked and then because of those thoughts, she found herself sketching her dream wedding dress. It took her an hour to finished the sketch, and by the time she was done with that, her heart starts to beat faster. Samantha stared at it, and imagined herself wearing the gown, while she's walking through the aisle and it's Tristan, the man she love whom standing at the end waiting for her hand to fall down towards him. It felt good, so great, that it's hurt her so bad realizing that it won't happen. "Wow!" She looks up at Mia, her new found friend. "Your sketch
Today, is Viviana and Tristan's wedding day. The Riverside Church known for its stunning architecture and views of the Hudson River, turned more grandeur. The surroundings are well worth the price. There are beautiful stained glass windows that fill all four walls, depicting the scenes of Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection. A massive chandelier hangs above them, which is currently lighting a beautiful pink rose petal as it slowly spins. A magnificent archway is built into one side with a beautiful marble floor.Almost all the guest are feeling amazed how good Tristan and Viviana's wedding venue is. The crowd is filled with known people in the business industries, including some famous names from both sides, but also family members, friends and colleagues of them. There's also some trusted people from the media to keep this event recorded. Tristan who's standing next to his friend, Gabriel, is looking around at every corner of the venue. He never failed to looked at every person
"Yes, I have..." he said. "Will you honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?" "We will," Viviana and Tristan answered, the only difference is the plainness in Tristan's voice. "Viviana, do you take Tristan to be your husband, to live together in the covenant of marriage? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, be faithful to him as long as you both shall live?" Viviana look straight into Tristan's eyes. Her eyes are sparkling with happiness, and it shows in her smile. Tristan on the other hand doesn't even attempt a smile at all."Of course, I do!" she said, and then the priest now looked at Tristan. "Tristan, do you take Viviana to be your wife, to live together in the covenant of marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" Tristan stared at Viviana, who sti
Samantha was still calming herself at Evelyn's house when phone rang. She looked at Evelyn, who's silently asking who's calling."It's Kristoffer," Samantha answered quietly. "Oh, dear," Evelyn said with a worried sigh. "Why is he calling? Do you think he saw you a while ago?" Samantha shrugged, and got up to answer it."Hello, Samantha?" She cleared her throat, so Kristoffer won't hear her voice crack on his call. "H-Hello, Kristoffer? Why did you call? Aren't you on your sister's wedding now?" she asked, hoping he couldn't sense the panic rising in her voice."Ah yes. We are still here just having some photoshoot." "Oh... So, why did you call? I-Is there's something wrong?" She hoped that sounded as composed as her tone of voice sounded."Nothing's wrong, I just suddenly miss your voice. Are you at your University today?" Samantha gazed at Evelyn who's now silently watching her. "Ah, yes! I'm actually taking my lunch now." She felt her heart pounding faster and wished he wouldn
Viviana slowly opened her eyes as she extended her arms on the other side of the bed. She feels so good, it's the first day of her married life with Tristan, the flashbacks of last night even make her widened her smile, but when she noticed that there is not another warm body beside her. Viviana smile fades, she sat up from lying on the bed and saw a empty space of their bedroom. She fixed herself and walked outside the room. She expected that he would be downstairs in the kitchen, preparing their breakfast but to her disappointment, she saw her brother sitting on the couch at their living room, with a coffee on the table in front of him."Kris? What are you doing here? And where's Tristan?" Viviana asked, while making her way towards Kristoffer. "Well, I can answer you first question, my dear sister. I am here to tell you that tomorrow is my flight to Europe. I don't know how long I'll still there with Samantha, much better if I'll be there forever, to ensure that your husband won'
Gabriel boredly looked at Tristan who suddenly showed up in his company's office. "I didn't expect you to be here, bro. I thought you are going to enjoy your honeymoon and married life," he said with a smirk. Tristan gently pinched the temple of his nose. "How I wish I can, Gabriel. But there's something I can't erase in my head." He sighed heavily then continued. "I knew it, it's about your hallucinations again," Gabriel said as he leaned back on his chair. "No, Gabriel. I really have a strong feeling that it's really Samantha I saw that moment. Maybe...""Maybe that's also the reason why during the photoshoot, her friend Evelyn suddenly disappeared from the scene, don't you notice that also?" Gabriel shook his head in disbelief. "Tristan, if Samantha's really there, what do you think her reasons? And why she didn't even approached you, or even her mother?" Tristan was silent for some time. He stared intently at his fingers then slowly raised his eyes to meet with his friend's
Samantha could hear the waves crash against her earlobe. Her skin seems hugging the coldness that's whispering in her surroundings. "Evelyn, where we actually are? Just make sure you have no hidden anger towards me that you are gonna drown me on the sea." Evelyn chuckle while she's acting as Samantha's support while walking and making sure that her friend will not going to removed her blindfold. "Nah, you can trust me for this, Sam!" Evelyn even giggled. After some time, they already stopped from walking, Samantha then sense that Evelyn already removed her hands from her shoulder. The silent of the surroundings made her heart race. "Evelyn? Should I remove it already?" She asked with a shaky tone, but Evelyn didn't answer her anymore so she decided to slowly removed the blindfold on her eyes. As she opened her eyes, the beauty of the night sky and the lights coming from the decorated lanterns was what greeted her eyes. But her eyes soon focus into one spot. It's a heart shape can
"Tristan, what should we do now?! My daughter's in danger," Nathalie said, panic seeping through her voice, while Evelyn is trying to calm her down. Benjamin then, is already calling some men to come and help to find where Viviana kept Samantha. "I c-can't afford to let her get killed!" Tristan jaw clenched, he quickly picked his car's key and jacket."Tristan, where are you going?" Benjamin asked his son. "Dad, I can't just wait here. I need to do something!" Tristan was about to step out of the mansion when his phone rang, and to their surprised when Tristan answer the video call, it's not only Viviana they see, instead she's with Kristoffer also. "Kristoffer?!" Nathalie can't believe what she's seeing. She even trusted Kristoffer to take care of her daughter, but now he's actually one of the kidnappers. "How dare you, Kristoffer?! Where did you take my daughter!? What have you done with her?!" "Oh, easy, Aunt Nathalie. She's there still breathing." The camera was being zoomed
"How could you do that to me, Viviana?!" Viviana quickly followed Tristan inside their home. "T-Tristan, babe... Please, let me explain.""Damn you! Explain what? Your lies? Maybe you can still fool me if ever I didn't follow Samantha to Kristoffer's house and I didn't hear and see all your lies. You are pregnant, huh?" He spat the last words like they were a curse word.Viviana froze for the second time, she's afraid, too scared that Tristan might just leave her, but she's more than angry, because if only Samantha didn't go there, maybe he won't follow her and discover the truth."So, from the start you are just fooling me? You fucking made me believe that we are really having a child!" Her hands curled into fists as she looked at the other side of the living room. "Tristan, I'm sorry okay? T-That's the only thing I can do to make you marry me." Viviana tried to grab his arm but Tristan pulled away and stepped backward. "And to get my wealth?" Viviana shook her head even it's too
"I'll just pay the bills, just wait me here?" Samantha smiled and nodded at Kristoffer. She can feel the furious gazed of Viviana towards her. She can actually hear her fingers tapping on the tap of the table. "If you are not really going to rest room, then we should go," she heard the words coming from Tristan. Its been half an hour since she's trying to control her hand from trembling because of undeniable nervousness. "No, I really want to, but I just really don't have a good feelings making you wait here." Samantha finally met Viviana's sight, who's not surprisingly still lingering on her. "Viviana..." Tristan whispered like the tone of his voice is fulll of tiredness. "Fine! I'll be back here quickly. Tristan, just sit there, and wait me, okay?" Viviana said while standing up from seating, and even looked back at Samantha with a warning look before walking into the hallway that leads to the rest room. When both of their lovers already out of the picture, Samantha could fee
"Tristan," Viviana approached Tristan and hugged him. She needs to act like a good wife again and not to trigger his anger towards him since their marriage is in a verge of failure because Samantha seems to be entering the picture again, especially now that Kristoffer also told her that before this month end, Samantha will be back here in New York and she doesn't like that news.She knows very well that Tristan is still in love with Samantha, and she won't let them be happy. "I-I'm happy that you are back. Look, I am sorry about our last fight. You don't have to stay away from me babe, especially that it's only a few months before I give birth." She gives him a small smile and caresses his cheek lovingly.Tristan stares at her silently for sometime and then sighs as he pinches the bridge of his nose. He looks tired, and Viviana knows that it's because of his hidden purpose at London. "I'm tired, Viviana. I want to rest." Despite the anger simmering inside of her, she still managed t
Samantha slowly opened her eyes, finding herself inside an unknown place she can't really recognize. Soon enough she realized that she's like in an apartment. She got up from lying on the bed, thinking how she somehow ends up here."Sam..." Her eyes widened as she heard a very familiar voice, the same time she saw Tristan standing by the door of the bedroom. Samantha quickly got up from the bed and find her purse and wear her shoes again. She's about to leave the room when Tristan approached her."Sam..." He hugged her, holding tightly on her waist. "Tristan!" She pushes him away. "What are you doing?! Let me go!" When their eyes met she immediately felt like he's hurt. His face shows that he wants to hold her more. Her heart beat more faster as Tristan held her hands, but she just pushed his arms.She's too shocked to opened her eyes and see him here, like all of this feels like a dreams. She doesn't know how to react, but her feelings can't deny that he's still have an effect on
"I hate him, Kris! But I hate your girlfriend more!" Viviana raised her voice, she's calling her brother, after Tristan left her and telling him about Tristan knowing the truth already that Samantha goes back to New York to witnessed their wedding. "Can you calm your ass, Viviana?" "Calm down? How can I calm down when he seems interested to know the reason why the fucking Samantha go there that time? What if... What if Tristan find her and leave me? I... I'm scared. I don't want any of this! You should have hide that girlfriend of yours and not let him see her," she said while sniffing. Kristoffer doesn't want to see his sister hurting especially because of Tristan because it made his blood boiled. He could do anything just to make her sister happy and no one could prevent him from doing that. "Stop crying, Viviana. I will make sure that Tristan is going nowhere near her and he can't just treat you like you are not his wife." Kristoffer told her with a serious tone and a cold voi
Viviana's bedroom was a sanctuary of luxurious fabrics and adorned with extravagant things, that cast a soft glow upon her surroundings. It was within this lavish haven that Viviana stood, her phone resting on a marble tabletop, its screen displaying Kristoffer's name.She pressed the speaker button, allowing her to still hear his voice, as she gazed upon her reflection in a grandiose mirror. The mirror, framed with ornate golden carvings is reflecting perfect body shape.Kristoffer's voice echoed from the phone, with a confident tone. The timbre of his voice reverberated through the room. "Of course, she can't do that to someone like me, Viviana," he proclaimed, there's an arrogance seeping into his words.She raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk dancing upon her lips as she turned away from the mirror, fixating her gaze on an exquisite vase of orchids. "Psh! You are too confident, Kris," she taunted, her voice tinged with amusement. "Are you sure she's not just using you to cover
"Tristan?" "What are you doing here? And I didn't invite you to come inside already!""Samantha's there during our wedding right?" Evelyn, didn't expect that from Tristan. She doesn't know how Tristan knew it. But then she need to stick on her promise as what Samantha request her to do and that's not to tell anyone about it."W-What are you talking about? How could Samantha possibly there that moment, do you think she'll come back here just for you?""Tristan, you ruined my best friend's life. You are the reason why she suffered from humiliation." "Please, Evelyn... Don't hide it anymore. Tell me, tell me why she was there during that time? Did she plan to stop our wedding because the truth is she still loves me, right?" Tristan's voice quivered with a mixture of desperation and hope. He was searching for answers, clinging onto the possibility that Samantha's presence meant something more than what he had initially believed.Evelyn bit her lip, her eyes darting around the room as if
