Chapter 96

Elena Sanchez slipped in and out of consciousness as she heard shouting in the room. At some point, a blow had been thrown, followed by a loud slap that seemed to shock her properly awake.

No, she had not been slapped, the slap was for someone else. It was in fact the noise of the slap that woke her up from her drug-like state.

She vaguely registered that the bodice of her dress was torn and she pulled together the scraps of the fabric hurriedly trying to cover herself.

Some footsteps and the warmth of a coat covered her. She closed her eyes and took in a breath of gratitude.

Cedarwood smoky spice. The coat smelled like… Marco. Yes, the man she was supposed to marry.

Elena jerked awake fully and flung open her eyes.

“Are you mad! What a miscreant! How dare you!”

Rosa Donatelli was red faced and screaming angrily. Elena felt disorientated and confused. What had happened?

She turned her head to Marco who stood beside her, rubbing her hair with his face twisted in concern.

What do you think?” Rosa Donatelli asked her future daughter-in-law excitedly.“Umm….,” Elena trailed with a smile.“I know, I know,” Rosa sighed. “You want to wear your own dress. But it’s not made by any popular designer,” Rosa looked distressed as she patted down her bun and sighed. “What will I say when the other women ask who designed my daughter-in-law’s dress? An unnamed store from New York City?”Francesca and Elena locked eyes from the full-length mirror and they both burst into giggles.“Oh stop it!” Rosa hissed at them but the edge of her lip was lifted as well. A smile was brewing and she knew it.It wasn’t like Elena hated the dress. Far from it, Rosa’s dress indeed spoke of quiet luxury with its soft lace and intricate pearl design.It fit perfectly too. Pancakes aside, it was almost like the dress had been hand-sewn for her. She didn’t have any particular attachment to her own dress and she could have worn it.Just one issue.Elena

    ‘Brrring!’ Elena Windsor’s doorbell rang.“I’m coming!” She yelled as she raced downstairs to the door.She hoped it would be her husband, David.Maybe he had decided to come back and spend the day with her.Elena opened the door happily and froze as the smile on her face dropped at the sight of her sister, Evangeline.“Um ouch!” Evangeline chuckled as she pushed past Elena and entered the house.“You can’t just contain your excitement to see me,” she drawled sarcastically.“You know it’s not like that,” Elena replied with an apologetic smile as she shut the door and followed her sister into the living room.“I’ve just been bored and hoped David would come back to spend some time with me."Evangeline scoffed and turned to Elena with an irritated look on her face.“Isn’t this depressing? How do you live with yourself knowing you traded 90 percent of your life’s work just to sit at home? Bored,” Evangeline shook her head“Evangeline,” Elena called in warning as annoyance pricked her skin

She had a good idea about what was happening but needed to see the evidence with her own eyes to believe it.Earlier last year, when her relationship had begun to sour, Elena had noticed that David’s hand-written correspondence had grown more frequent, but she deluded herself into thinking that everything was fine.Now, Elena went straight for the shoebox she had noticed him messing around with a few times. She sobbed bitterly as she uncovered the shoebox and confirmed her worst fears. David and Chelsea had been in constant communication for two years.Elena sat on the floor of her closet, surrounded by David’s letters, as she picked up her phone and called her sister."Hey, what’s up?" Evangeline’s cheery voice came from the end of the line as she picked up the phone.Elena took a deep breath and shut her eyes. "I’m pregnant,""Wait, what? Ba

Her car came to a halt with a loud thud, and Elena hissed in pain as her head banged against the steering wheel.Everything went black for a few seconds and Elena came around to the sound of a man’s voice."Are you okay, ma'am?" Elena vaguely heard the man call for the paramedics to arrive at the scene of the accident.Elena blinked in confusion at the man as the ringing noise in her head began to quiet down. "Yeah," she groaned in pain. "I'm okay. Please just help me out," she replied as she tried to unhook her seatbelt."Okay, here, let me just-" the man agreed, as he opened the car door and attempted to release her jammed seatbelt."I'm sorry, I think it's jammed," the man frowned as he tried repeatedly to unlock her seatbelt. The clicking noise made Elena's head ring, so she stopped the man's hand with hers."Thank you, Mr...?" Elena inquired."Parker. I'm Mr. Parker. I

    Elena could barely remember anything as she half ran and half jumped out of the Uber. “No no no no no no,” She cried frantically as she dropped to her knees and crawled towards her car where she could see Evangelyn’s blood pooled beneath the overturned car. “Hey pull her back, it’s gonna blow,” Elena vaguely heard someone say as she felt a strong arm grab hold of her midriff. “No! My sister. My sister’s in there!” Elena screamed as she thrashed against the arm that held her but the person was firm. “Please, please,” Elena begged as she sobbed mercilessly. She tried kicking the person to go to Evangelyn. She couldn’t see her sister, but she was certain she was frightened. “You can’t go, the car’s going to blow,” The person holding her explained in pity as he hauled her back a few more steps. “What?” Elena whispered as her mind went blank. “I said the car-” Just then, the car exploded with a loud sound as blasting heat hit Elena and she fainted.

    Chapter 95Elena made her way down to get breakfast but her head was spinning. Had Marco not come back last night from where he went with DaSilva? Why else would Vicker carry her instead of her supposed husband?“Dear, are you okay? You don’t look so well,” Queeneth, one of Marco’s cousins spoke up as she got to the dining table.Elena gave her a small smile and fanned herself with my palm. “I… I’m fine. I just need some air. Excuse me,” Before she could reply properly, Elena rushed out of the dining towards the drawing room window and pulled out her phone.Her hands shook as she dialed Marco’s number.Ring Ring.The phone rang and her stomach was in knots until he finally picked up the call.“Hello?”“Where are you?” Elena demanded immediately.In the background of the call, She could hear DaSilva’s voice and it grated on her nerves. “Did you come back last night?”“Sorry baby. I called Mama because you were asleep. I’ll be back in time for my bachelor’s party. Just…”Marco’s voice

    Chapter next.“Oh, I think that pose is cute,”Elena squeezed her eyes shut and internally groaned at the sound of DaSilva’s voice. Here she was, trying to process that her soon-to-be husband could potentially have a five-year-old child and the woman was yapping loudly.“You okay?” Marco asked Elena with concern in his voice.“Yeah yeah,” She waved his concern off with a small smile. “I’m fine. Let’s just take the pictures,”Marco gave a nod and Elena didn’t miss his look of relief. He was trying so hard for everything to go well and she couldn’t understand why. Was it because of DaSilva?“And that’s a wrap,” The photographer, Antonio smiled at them The pictures are done. Let’s pick the ones I’ll process.Elena sighed in relief and smiled happily. Finally, an activity she could do with Marco.“Let’s choose the picture,” Elena smiled excitedly.“What do you think you know about PR?” Rosa stepped in with a conceding look. This is the Donatelli family. I will not have you disgrace the fa

    Elena looked across the terrace where Marco and DaSilva were still deep in conversation. The two of them were secluded from the entire family and seemed to be talking about something serious.She tried to pretend like it didn’t bother her. She failed.“Maybe try being more subtle?” Vicker, Marco’s cousin teased her with an amused smile.Elena’s cheeks pinkened and she dropped the book she had been pretending to read. “Am I that obvious?” He chuckled and gave Elena a nod. “Pretty much. But it’s alright. You’re marrying him in four days. It would be strange if you weren’t worried,”“But should I be?” Elena frowned. “Do I have a reason to be worried? Who exactly is she?”“I’m sure grandfather already told you,” Vicker replied with a shrug. “She’s Marco’s childhood best friend. I’ve always known her, how exactly they met is fuzzy, but they were always inseparable, we all thought for sure they would be getting married but…” Vicker trailed off.“But what?” Elena asked, her interest now piq

    Elena knew Marco was rich. I mean the man came from a long line of men who were diamond industry owners but she didn’t realise he was this rich.She had seen a reasonable amount of wealth in the time she had spent on earth yet her mouth was open in shock as the car pulled up by the side of the fountain and a man pulled open her car door.“Marco,” She whispered in shock. The entire driveway and the estate screamed luxury.The manor itself was breathtaking. Like a mini palace, she didn’t know what to focus her eyes on first. “The manor is gorgeous,” She gushed as she stepped out of the car.Marco chuckled lightly behind her. “Yeah, it is. I’ve gotten so used to this place, I always forget how shocking it is, to see it for the first time,”“Used to it?” Elena asked in bewilderment. “Are you joking?” She took off her sunglasses and stared wide-eyed at the entire expanse of the building.Would she ever get used to it? It amazed her to think of how Marco had grown up.Almost as though Elena

    Chelsea was mad. Or crazy. Elena couldn’t decide which one as she watched the woman’s shiny eyes.This wasn’t Chelsea Rodriguez, the intelligent arch enemy she’d had since childhood. This woman was something else, bordering on the edge of insanity.“What’s wrong with her?” Elena asked her secretary as she watched Chelsea respond to the judges’s few questions.“I’m not sure,” Kim sighed and shook her head. “At the first trial, I thought she was putting on an act but now, it’s obvious to anyone that she’s lost it. Maybe guilt from all her evil deeds or the pain of losing the child she longed for,”Elena’s fingers shook but she twisted them and kept them on her lap as the judge slammed the gavel to bring utter silence to the courtroom.“The accused has been found guilty…”The court went up in uproar as the spectators cheered loudly while Elena just sat in silence staring at Chelsea’s wheelchair.“Order!” The judge tried to get the court silent again as she hit the gavel.“...guilty of at

Her eyes were wet and as she looked at her friend’s reflection in the mirror, she could see Francesca’s eyes were also wet.“You look so beautiful, gosh,” Fancesca choked out as she got to her feet slowly.“She’s right,” Theresa smiled. “Hurry up and get married before you steal my woman,”The three of them laughed and Elena put a piece of her hair behind her ear.“I feel beautiful too. I think this is it. The dress, I’ll wear. It’s perfect,”Francesca gave a nod of agreement. “I love it too, but do you think Rosa will agree? I imagine she would want you to wear a custom made dress,”Elena’s brows wrinkled and before she could reply, her doctor and friend, Theresa spoke up.“It doesn’t matter if Rosa Donatelli doesn’t like the dress. She’s not the one getting married and she has to accept that. If she can’t then she’s free
