" Huh? What happened to your dress?", Ashley was surprised to see her mother's dress changed, " but I must say, this one looks better and more beautiful, who's did it for you?", She asked admiring the dress,
" My daughter in law", " No way!", She chuckled, " wow! Can't believe that big head's wife-to-be will be someone with a skill, a nice skill", " I was surprised too", she relaxed back on the couch, dropping her purse beside her and kicking the heels off. A maid quickly came forward to pack it and take it to the room where it belonged. " But why is your mood sour, is she not beautiful? don't worry, your son is a heavenly god, his handsomeness alone is enough so worry not, they won't give you ugly grandchildren", " It's not that", " Then what is it?", " I was angry when I saw her", " Why?", " The way she looks broke my heart into pieces, I was so angry that I wanted to yell at her and ask why is she not taking care of herself", " I don't understand", " I don't know, what did that family do to her?", She asked looking so worried and concerned, " she looked so lean Ashley, so lean and pale, I could nearly see her bones, and her eyes? There's no life in them, she was just moving, I couldn't even see her smile when she smiled, her fingers were all thin and her thump was full of injuries of needless. I could tell she had gone through hell and was still going through it, the feeling of hugging her was so much and all I wanted to do was take her away from that family". " Hm", Ashley sighed, " I don't know who you are talking about? But I looked her up, the lady brother is marrying, unless it's not Alice", she said and showed her Alice's picture from I*******m. " Woah, see their daughter, glowing and shining, and someone else's daughter is dying", Sharon felt so disgusted, " I hate that kind of people most", " Okay... You didn't tell me they've changed the bride", " Oh well, they did, probably because of the rumors", " I told you to clear that up", " Why should I? He's disabled, so? I know some disabled people who are rich, successful, and handsome". Ashley sighed, " true", " And there are those that know the truth", " True. But I bet their jaws are gonna hang open when they see my brother", she said proudly, " so what are you going to do? I don't like any of them in that family, will prefer we have no business with them", " No, if anything, I'm hastening it up", " Huh?", " We'll do the wedding in two days", " What?!", " I need to call my husband", she stood up and excused herself leaving Ashley whose mouth was hung open. ************* " Why are you so happy?", " I love you so much", he kissed her all over her face, " What's going on?", Patricia asked looking worried and confused. By the time she arrived, Sharon had left and she had been so worried, didn't know what happened or why she was not around but she threatened Clarisse that she was going to go through hell if the marriage fell off. " You're confusing me, what happened?", " The Percy's family said...", " That?", " They'd love the wedding to be in two days" " he said giggling like a baby, " What?! Are..you sure of what you're saying?", " Hundred percent, I couldn't contain my job and that's why I was rushing home to shower you with my love and affection". Patricia blushed, smiling, "Well...what are you going to do?", " Anything you want my love, name it", " Hmm... anything?", " Anything, but first, I'll need to start giving it to you from the bedroom", he tinkled with her causing her to laugh and blush, " C'mon... you're still naughty at such an old age", she said shyly, " Old? Will not defend that, but you can testify that my joystick never gets old", he winked at her, " Hey!", She hit him, blushing so hard. " But honey", " Hm?", " What did you do to Charles's wife, how did you do it?", " Hmm...well...just...this and that, woman to woman, we know how this thing works", " Ohh, my beautiful wifey", he scooped her off her ground into his arms. Patricia giggled as Ferdinand headed over to their room. ************** " I need to hasten up the signing, have some urgent things to attend to", a tall man standing by the curtain said while staring out at the city through the transparent glass. " What urgent matter, the construction deals are not the only deal we are sealing and we have to chill around before your wedding day. " I told you I have no time to chill around", " You're such a workaholic, you won't have the time or chance to do all this again, so this is your only opportunity", " I guess we're done talking about business, goodnight", " Hey, hey, hey, Calm down bro, fine, I'll get the AnD cooperation to sign the deal, but don't forget my cut", " I never go back on my words", " And when is your wedding? I don't want to miss it for anything in this world", " You don't have to come, just concentrate on getting the deal", " Don't be a sorry boring dude and I'm your goddamn best friend, why will I miss the wedding for heaven's sake, if anything, I should be there helping you get prepared, but you trapped me here with a business", " There's no way you can attend even if I tell you so like I said, just focus on closing the deal", " If you're not going to tell me I'll just ask Ashley by myself but believe me once I get the information from Ashley, you'll see me by your side two days earlier whether I close the deal or not", " Is that supposed to be a threat?", " Not like you ever feel threatened but whatever", " Okay...", He sighed getting exhausted already from the conversation that already seemed too long, " The wedding is in two days", " What?!", He screamed. Chris placed the phone away from his ear already, he knew he was going to scream, " Why the hell are you just telling me now?", " I just received the message also, it was supposed to be in two weeks", " And how are you going to meet up, you can't let Kyle beat you to it, you know how stubborn and persistent that idiot can be", " He can never beat me to anything", Chris said confidently, " and I'll see about the wedding. Bye", he hung up immediately giving Ryan no room to say any more words. He tossed the phone to the bed and loosened his tie, " which one is more important, the money, or the wedding?", He asked himself." Hi laws", Patricia waved at Sharon but she rolled her eyes in disgust. She whispered to her daughter, "Had I known I'd have come and pick her up by myself and doll her up, what is this?", she said referring to the lonely lady at the alter," I can tell immediately she's not their daughter, their daughter is not even present here"," I don't care if she's present or not, I'm very angry right now", she whispered.Clarisse stood at the altar, stood blankly at the flower in her hand. Not like she's throwing it to anyone, who would want to catch a flower from a woman like her, a woman who's getting married to another man just in few days after her divorce? She sighed dejectedly, trying hard not to listen to the murmurs, though there was nothing new, it just hit differently. She knows they're laughing and pointing at her oversized wedding gown, and her oversized heels and probably also gossiping about her divorce and shamelessness. Her eyes welled up in tears, why is her life full of p
Alice groaned covering her ears with the pillow and tried falling deep asleep back and just as she was successfully sleeping back, her phone rang out again with the ringing tone that sounded so noisy." Ugh!!", She groaned loudly and sat up with anger ready to blast whosoever was calling her with insults, " Dani?", She called the name showing on her phone screen out and picked up the call." what's it?", She said tried to suppress her outburst." oh my goodness! Congratulations baby!".Dani's voice was clouded with excitement that makes Alice even more pissed." Congratulations for what?"," c'mon...stop feigning to be pissed, I know you're very happy right now and I'm actually pissed that you keep such a thing from us, me especially, but I guess you just wanted it to be surprising, anyways... I'm so so so... happy for you right now to even be pissed, but I still am", she said and laughed.She felt so happy for Alice that her heart could not contain it but Alice was just confused at a
" who's that?", One of the maids asked Ally as she went back to her duty." just some men", she replied not giving the maid much attention," Oh, some men are already coming to look for you...tell me, is that your new crush?", the maid teased Ally but she wasn't anything, " he is good looking though","You should get back to work, he's not my crush or anything", she replied coldly." tsk, you're no fun", she pouted her mouth and left her.Ally resumed back to what she was doing but her mind was feeling unsettled, disturbed, and guilty." I shouldn't have said that much", she said and sighed, falling back on her butt and scolding herself. She had just told a total stranger things she felt like she shouldn't and that was because she was so angry at that moment that she couldn't caution herself. A few minutes ago" Who are you?"," I'm her friend"," Clarisse does not have any friends"," she does now, I'm her new friend but I feel like I don't know anything about her, she constantly zon
Christian frowned and said in a deep and vibrant tone that made Clarisse's heart skip so hard," and why would my woman do that?"." huh?".' did I hear that right?, He's been acting crazy since the wedding, I'm not Alice, who's his woman?', Clarisse said in her mind as she looked up at him, meeting his gray eyes.Their eyes met and Chris felt his heart skip, her blue ocean eyes were so beautiful and drowning but at the same time, held lots of emotions." I'm doing that because I know it isn't me you want to be here and I understand that", she said looking away. She's sure Patricia can't just send her off to a good man so this is what she's thinking it is." What makes you think it's another woman I want here?"," because I know it definitely can't be me", she said like she was so sure puzzling Chris and thinking if he was missing something." I don't know what you're thinking princess..."," Clarisse, that's my name", she said feeling uneasy about him calling her princess, nothing is
Clarisse followed Sharon as she went into another section, she watched Sharon who was immersed in a joy-suffused atmosphere as they embarked on a journey to find the perfect wedding dress for her. She felt strange and her heart ached, it made her imagine what the moment would be like if her mother was alive, she was feeling motherly love and it hurt, eyes were glued on Sharon but she was seeing her mother's face.Sharon browsed through the collection of dresses, trying to find the perfect dress for Clarisse, the one she was wearing was making her angry, she wanted her to look their best, and make this day a memorable one for her, and she was controlling herself so hard not to hug the fragile and lean looking Clarisse. Now that she's married to her son, she's likewise excited that she has one more daughter so she wants her daughter's wedding to be such a memorable one and after she found out that her real parents are there, she already assumed the role of a mother belongs to her now."
Clarisse sighed and she relaxed back and took a deep breath.' is he after my death? This is the second time I've been in a helicopter in just a day. Clarisse cried in her mind, she had thought of the worst scenario that could happen and she was feeling so tired and hungry and the situation was not helping matters. They are finally done with taking pictures that took so long and now going to only heaven knows.She clenched her gown and relaxed back, trying to steady her breath and not panic and it worked, she soon felt relaxed, and gradually she began to feel the cool gentle breeze on her skin and face, it was no longer noisy, rather the atmosphere seemed quiet and peaceful.Have they arrived?She opened her eyes to see if they had arrived but her eyes were opened to see a breathtaking and serene environment, it was so beautiful and was full of nature, she could see the birds flying, the trees had blossomed wonderfully and the floor was covered in different kinds of flowers that make
" please...", She pleaded with tears in her eyes and opened them back to life. Her eyes opened slowly to the bright room, so bright for her eyes that she groaned and stood up.She tried to adjust her eyes to the light, looked around the room, and wiped her tears off." I had a dream", she said to herself, " but now I'm back", she said sadly. She sniffled and got down from the bed, her body felt healthy and strong, she looked at where she just stood, it was so soft, big, and comfortable. She had not slept on such a bed for years and she didn't feel aches or pain in any part of her body like she also feels, except that she was feeling so hungry.She took a look at herself and saw that her clothes were changed also." Did he...take my dress off?", She asked and walked out of the room in a flip-flop. She went out to the hallway where she walked by some maids who bowed at the sight of her and she momentarily and subconsciously bowed back.She could hear them whispering and gossiping but sh
Cyrus glanced through the mirror to take a look at his boss when he noticed the disturbed expression on his face.' why is the boss looking disturbed?', he thought to himself but ignited the car by pressing the start button." Cyrus", Christian suddenly called," Yes sir", he answered taking a quick look through the mirror," Is it true she might feel lonely and upset that I left?"," Who?","Never mind", he said and looked away leaving Cyrus confused but he shrugged at it and concentrated back on his driving." Okay my wife", Christian answered when Cyrus shrugged it off," Your.. your wife?", he said and remembered oh yes! The boss is married, I haven't gotten used to that yet', he said in his mind." She was sleeping when we arrived at the resort so I couldn't bid her bye before coming to the meeting"," Was it her honeymoon?"," Yeah","Oh, of course, sir, she would be pissed, she didn't even tell her before leaving her alone in a resort and which husband leaves his wife on her we
