Things were going amazing with the wedding planning since the date was set and Katherine couldn't believe that in one month, she and Aiden will be married. A spring wedding was one of her favourites. Even though she was nervous, she was anticipating spending the rest of her life making wonderful memories with Aiden and the twins. She had a bridal fitting in the afternoon with a designer that Aiden booked, and she was left speechless when she met the talented and renowned wedding dress designer. He had great taste, and she couldn't stop praising that. Taryn accompanied her, hoping to see designs that she would like and maybe choose for herself. She and Dustin intended to get married in December. "These are all so beautiful," Kat said to her friend as she tried on the third dress. It was an appealing A-line lace dress with intricate bead work that gave it a touch of elegance."Yes, but you have to select the one that you prefer. The one that stands out the most," Taryn said as she ski

The calls became more frequent as it drew nearer and nearer to the wedding, until one day they stopped out of the blue. This made Aiden even more suspicious and worried. With the wedding only a few days away, the happy couple tried to remain as calm as they could be, and focused on their big day. Dustin made it his duty to plan a bachelor party for his best friend, who said he wasn't interested in having one, but with a little convincing, Aiden finally agreed to a small get-together with a few of his friends.

He yearned for her, but he tried his best not to break his promise.They spoke over the phone after the bachelorette party and even fell asleep while still on the phone with each other. The next morning, the sound of bells and whistles woke Katherine up. Her mom, Nola and Taryn, were all jumping in excitement and joy."Get up, sleepy head," Nola said before kissing her mom on the cheek. "Yeah, get up sleepy head, it's your wedding day," Mrs. Riley cheered as she rang the two small wedding bells she was carrying. Taryn then joined in with the sliding whistle. "Katherine, what's happening?" She heard over the phone. It was then she realized that Aiden was still on the phone. "Aiden my love, it's getting crazy over here," she laughed. "I can only ima

"Ladies and gentlemen, please stand and make welcome the beautiful newly-weds, Mr. and Mrs. Windsor," the MC announced, and the audience erupted in cheers and applauses as Aiden and Katherine entered the beautifully decorated room. "Now, the newly-weds will do their first dance as a married couple," The MC spoke, and the audience sat back down. All eyes were set on Aiden and Katherine as they slowly walked to the centre of the ballroom. The soothing sounds of Paramore's Only Exception began to play over the speaker. Aiden smiled and pulled Katherine closer to him. The crowd looked on as they began to move to the melody of the song.The quiet whispers drowned out, and soon, Katherine felt like she and Aiden were the only ones in the room.She looked at him and smile.

The newly-weds were over the moon about their honeymoon, even though they had been flying for quite some time on Aiden's private jet. Katherine, however, did not know where they were going, so she was in shock when the pilot, Frank, announced that they were at their destination, which was Bora Bora. She always dreamed about going there to experience the beautiful beaches and peaceful ambiance. She mentioned it once to Aiden when they had just met, and he was definitely taking notes because this was a dream come true for her. "Welcome to one of the most surreal places on earth, Bora Bora," Frank announced over the intercom. "Thank you, Frank. And spectacular flying," Aiden commended. "Thank you, Frank," Kat also said. "I hope you two have the most wonderful and memorable honeymoon," Frank continued over the pager.

For the next four days, Katherine and Aiden were in honeymoon bliss. They went on scenic hikes, snorkeling, shopping in the town for souvenirs for themselves and their loved one. They would check in with their families two times for the day, and every phone call was an enjoyable one. The twins would make it clear what they wanted from the trip. And each time, it was something different. Aiden tried his best to meet all their demands, while Katherine adored how he and the kids had a wonderful relationship. "Why are you laughing at me?" Aiden asked his wife as he rummaged through some items that he had already gotten. "I just think it's cute how the kids have you all riled up," she smiled as she kissed his cheek. "Laugh now, but I know the kids will love all of these," he stated. "I'm making sure I have everything. I can't seem to find the bag of sweet and spicy Taki pretzels for Nate.""Taki pretzels?" Katherine questioned. "I didn't even know they made those.""They do, and Nate

After Aiden phoned Matteo, he didn't get the satisfaction he needed because Matteo wasn't aware of anyone being in the vicinity of the villas during that time of the evening. Matteo however promised that there will be security officers posted in that area, and they wouldn't be bothered like that again. That wasn't enough for Aiden because for the next couple of days he had an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach, like whoever came by their villa was there to watch or harm them. He tried his best to brush the feeling aside and not make Katherine worry, but it was in vain. His mind even began stressing about work and the direction his company was heading. He wanted to take his mind off all of that, so they were going on their final excursion in the town. Kai came to pick them up around 11 am, with Matteo in tow. "What's bothering you?" Katherine asked him as he looked out the window of the car. "Oh, nothing really," he smiled at her. "I'm just thinking about work.""Really, Ai

"Thank you so much, Matteo, for your hospitality," Katherine thanked him as he placed the last of the suitcases in its position. "You are most welcome, Mrs. Windsor," he smiled and did a little bow. "And Mr. Windsor, I do apologize again for that minor mishap at the store and also for the invasion of your privacy at your villa." He finished. "That's alright Matteo, our trip was still a memorable one," Aiden made clear. "Yes, it was amazing," Kat added. "Oh," Matteo began. "Before I forget, I just want to say congratulations in advance," he finished and Katherine and Aiden looked at him confused. "Congratulations? How many times are you gonna say that?” Aiden grinned and patted the middle-age

THE HUSBAND TRAP 85: Violet’s Sentence
The trial began a week later, and it didn't take long for the judge and juror to decide the fate of Violet. With all the evidence, it was clear that she was guilty. The only decision that needed to be made was her punishment."Your honour, the evidence presented in this case is damning and inexcusable," the lawyer representing Nate and his family stated. "Though the evidence is there, we see no reason why the book should be thrown at my client being that she's not a repeat offender," Violet's lawyer presented. "Not a repeat offender? If I may point out, she was being investigated for embezzlement and fraud. And if I recall, she fled the country before an arrest could have been made.""That's hearsay, your honour.”"Would I have brought this up if it was only hearsay?" The lawyer pulled out a few documents from a pile that was in front of him. He them gestured to the officer to bring it to the judge. "This doesn't look good, Mr. Ryan," the judge said to Violet's lawyer after reviewi
THE HUSBAND TRAP 84: Picnic Day
After Aiden informed Katherine about the trial date, they both decided that they would have a sit down with Nate over the weekend and tell him about what was happening. After Katherine finished work that Saturday evening, they all sat down in the living room to have a discussion. "What did you guys do today?" Katherine asked Nate and Nola, who were sitting on both ends of the large couch in the room and were engrossed in their tablets. "I helped Ms Lewis in the garden. We will have lots of potatoes and strawberries by the end of the month," Nola said as she placed the tablet beside her. "That's great Nola. I can make some strawberry tarts when they are ready.""I played on my tablet most of the day," Nate answered without taking his eyes off the screen of the device. "Nate, can you please put the tablet aside," Aiden requested. "We have something important we want to discuss." "Okay," Nate said as he tucked the tablet in the corner beside him. "Thank you," Aiden said."Alright,

Two Months Later. Things were a lot better for Katherine and her family. She was now seven months pregnant and couldn't wait to give birth. She had to take a break from doing too much work, so she mostly worked in the office of the Café. The twins were back to their old routine, especially Nate. He still visits Dr. Coleman once a week for one-on-one sessions, and exceptional progress have been made. He had a few more visits until the sessions would be over all together.Since the one-on-one sessions had been happening, they would bring Nate to the doctor, and wait in the lounge area until the sessions were done. Katherine and Aiden took turns in bringing Nate to his sessions depending on how busy they were. If they were both free on a specific day, they would all go togetherAiden picked up Nate from school while Kat was busy at work. Nola wanted Nate to stay and watch her practice, but Aiden promised her he would come back for her after her swimming lessons were done.He drove Nate

"What do you think it means?" Katherine asked Doctor Coleman. After Nate showed his drawing, he didn't care to talk about it. Instead, he turned his attention to his tablet. Katherine was worried, and Aiden couldn't help but feel helpless in the situation, so they pulled Dr. Coleman to the side to get to the bottom of things. "Well, it's clear that he has something bothering him.""Maybe I should ask him about it," Katherine pondered. "Baby, remember we tried, and he completely shut down." Aiden reminded her."I know, but I just want him to feel better. He gets up screaming in the middle of the night. He's not eating like he used to, and he's a bit withdrawn.""And these are all expected since he just went through a traumatic situation," Dr. Coleman began. "I would recommend one-on-one sessions for him." "You think that would help, doctor?""It's always worth the try." He answered. "He's the best I know, so let's see what will happen," Aiden suggested. "Alright," Kat finally agr

The next day, Aiden scheduled an appointment for the family to see the therapist. Surprising, the doctor squeezed them in that very same day. He also scheduled another appointment for Katherine to meet with her doctor, since she had been going through a stressful situation. "Nate and Nola are ready," Katherine told Aiden. She had left him on the phone with some clients while she got the kids ready for the day. "Give me a sec, my love," he said to her with his hands covering the mouthpiece of his cell. He then turned his attention back to the call.Katherine went and got herself ready in the meantime. After finishing up the call, Aiden got himself ready, then he and his family headed to the doctor's appointment. The therapist's office was quiet and quaint. Katherine was surprised to know that a renowned therapist would see them on such short notice, but she was getting used to the idea of things being less complicated and hassle-free since she's married to a very wealthy man.

The next day, it was time for everyone to go home. Violet, however, had to wait a few days before the process of being extradited was completed. "We're all set and ready to go," Aiden told the pilot after boarding the jet. Liam and Dustin fell asleep instantly as the aircraft took flight. Even though Aiden was tired as hell, he couldn't fall asleep. He watched as Nate looked through the window, admiring the scenery as they ascended high into the sky. "What's on your mind?" Aiden asked Nate as his gaze fell from a comic book that he was reading. "Oh, nothing," Nate answered. "Are you sure, sweetie?" Katherine asked when she noticed how sad his face looked. "Well, I was just wondering what my sister is doing," he said calmly. "Maybe sleeping," Kat said after checking the time. "It's still pretty early in the morning." "Oh, you’re probably right," Nate said quietly. "Yes, but I'm sure she will be thrilled to see you," Kat reassured. "I think so too," Aiden added. "In fact, ever

Violet's entire body was in pain when she came to. She found herself disoriented and upsided down, still in the vehicle and still clutching the case with the money. Her ears rang like someone had set off an alarm system inside her head. She looked around and saw the feet of two men coming towards her. They reached inside and carefully pulled her from the wrecked car. One of the men was a paramedic. He checked her out and said that she was lucky she wasn't hurt. She only had minor bruises on her face and arms.Soon Dustin and another officer walked onto the scene. As they were about to arrest and escort her to the police car, she made one last attempt to escape, but Dustin held his foot out, which caused her to trip and fall to the ground. The case flung open, causing the money to spill onto the ground. "Bastard!" she yelled from the ground as she tried to scoop up the dollar bills that were twirling around in the wind. Her heart almost gave out when she noticed something about the

The sound of the speeding car echoed through the atmosphere as Violet's goon made off with the money. Katherine and Liam ran over to the side of the beach where Nate and Aiden were. Dustin and Aiden's officer friend, officer Smith were already there. Dustin ran to help Aiden, while officer Smith watched Nate."Nathan!" Katherine shouted as she ran to her son. Nate outstretched his arms and ran to meet his mother. "Mom," he cried as they hugged each other. "Oh my sweet boy, I've missed you so much," Kat cried and squeezed him tightly. "I missed you too, mom," Nate sobbed. "Let me look at you," Kat expressed as she pulled from the embrace and began inspecting him. "Are you hurt? Are you cold? Are you hungry?" She fired off. "I'm a bit cold," Nate said, trembling. "I'll grab one of the blankets from the car," Officer Smith said. "Grab two," Katherine ordered when she saw Aiden and Dustin walking towards them. Aiden was sopping wet and trembling. Katherine hugged him tightly and
THE HUSBAND TRAP 77: The Exchange
The flight from West Virginia to Jamaica was almost six hours. When they landed in St. Mary, Aiden had already arranged for them to be picked up and taken to the nearest resort, which was fifteen minutes away from the airport. Aiden informed everybody that Violet was staying in a nearby town called Port Maria. They got to the resort and settled in, collecting their bearing and going over their plan a few more times. Even though Aiden encouraged her to get some rest, Katherine stayed up and made some spaghetti and meatballs for everyone to eat. "Katherine sweetheart, I really wish you would get some rest," Aiden pleaded as he stirred a pot of sauce, which he was ordered to do. "I'm almost done here, and besides, this is what's keeping me sane. This is my therapy," she told him. "I understand how you're feeling, my love," Aiden began as he placed a kiss on her cheek. “This will all be over soon. I already have everything set in motion." "I am so grateful to have you by my side," Ka
