[Cattleya]“Isn’t Lance also a victim of the situation ..?”“I also thought of that too. But Lance was only a victim of the situation when they were younger. Not until he grew up with her mother by his side and became evil. ” Finnley uttered before he checked his phone. “There’s more to it that I am left to tell. But, I don’t think I can today. ”My eyebrows furrowed because of what he said. I looked outside to see if it was dark outside and we were very engulfed in our story but not really and still bright outside."Why? The wedding coordinator hasn't called me yet. I still have time. What else are you going to tell me? ” I asked as I sipped my drink that I hadn’t yet consumed.“We can talk about it next time. But for now, to save my precious life, I have to take you back to him. ” He said as he rose to his seat.“Why are you in such a hurry. Maybe Jaxson isn't there yet and he's still doing some work. I'll just be left there when I— ”I couldn't continue what I was about to say when
We have been here for almost a few minutes but none of us intend to speak. We could only hear the gusts of wind as we both watched the sunset.“Are you calmer now? Should we go down already? ”My gaze returned to Gunther who was also staring at my face. I nodded at him as a smile flashed on my lips.I looked down for a moment when I noticed that he was handing something to me. When I saw what it was a handkerchief shovel he was giving.“Wipe your face. I don’t know if you want him to see you hurt and cry, but I don’t think that showing your damp face to the wedding coordinator would be nice right before your wedding, am I wrong? ” Gunther said softly.Honestly even though he sometimes shows me a warm personality it is the very first time I have heard such a tone of his speech. He really sounded concern to me and the gleam on his eyes which was also hit by a bit of orange light due to the sunset, it gives me a warm feeling.I did not answer him and then immediately accepted the handker
Whenever I am fortunate to do nothing and have free time, I always make sure to treat myself with some romantic movies. And based on how it usually happens in the movies, wedding gown fitting is always the most exciting part of the story. I feel like my heart is jumping in ecstatic whenever the main characters do that, because I know that when such a scene happens, the story is approaching the ending part which is I always expected as a happy ending in a wedding.But, as some say, movies stay in movies. Not all the romantic movies we watch actually happen in real life. Well, maybe for other people yes there is a possibility that they actually are lucky to find the right person to share that special moment with, unfortunately, I will never experience that kind of feeling.I'm sure that when I get out there, Jaxson will just tell me that it's up to me to shop for what I want to wear because I'll be the one wearing it. It's not like in shows and fiction books that the groom really cares
My eyes were left in the air, still processing the words she just let out. I saw both of them rising from their seat but my body couldn't seem to function properly because her words were too much to digest inside my mind and my reflexes.My first project as a Miranda model would be with Daniella? Jaxson's ex fiance. Of all the models in their agency, does it really have to be her?I mean, I should care less because I already know that she's one of their biggest models. But that is what's bothering me more and making the situation ever more bizarre. I am nothing compared to her in this industry. She's already up there and I'm just a beginner."For such a big project like this, shouldn't you be getting a model that is more experienced and obviously more popular than me? I am still new and I still have so much more to learn for me to work with higher models. " I stated as I rose in my seat, trying to follow Mrs. Cooper's pace. "If you want someone to work with your top model, you should
"Cattleya!"Uncle Joe, Aunt Marie and the rest of us in the apartment shouted almost at the same time. "Come in," I said politely and Gunther let them into a room reserved for me. Earlier the long preparation on my face and hair was over. My bottom is almost flat because for some time I have been sitting here while staring at myself in the vanity mirror where I can see my face being adjusted.“Your wedding gown is so beautiful. It looks like it's obviously rich and expensive. Take a look at the fabric as well as the stones and diamonds. You can run and run away after you wear it. ” Aling Marie said while holding my gown that I haven't worn yet because it was a silk robe that Isabella first wore for me.Along with Aunt Marie who will look at my dress is Linda who is only a few years older than me but had a child early so it is not to insult her but she looks older compared to her age. Perhaps it was also brought on by her fatigue and difficulty in caring for her child.“It’s so beauti
"How many times do I have to say that you can always call me Richard."I laughed awkwardly because of his opening words to me. My gaze returned to Loren and Mr. Sol and feels the situation. An uncomfortable silence enveloped us for a moment.We are not that close because of the manager and owner of the club I worked for, Mr. Sol. Even though he told me a few times that I could call him by his name it seemed like I couldn’t do it because of the invisible fence between us. But I really appreciate how he came first to help me when he found out I had nothing to pay for my tuition. He allowed me to ask for an advance salary so I saved my education.The ice broke in our midst because of Uncle Joe’s fake throat cleaning. Maybe they also felt the unusually awkward situation. I don't even know why Loren brought him here. They are not that close to each other either.“Oh well, since your friends are already here, maybe it's better if we go out first to greet and get to know your future wife. We
I am overwhelmed when the big door of the church opened in front of my eyes. I was met by so many people and all their attention was on me. At the same time, a romantic instrumental tune that I requested from Charlotte as the theme song for my walk down the aisle.I slowly took a small step. I hold the pink and gold bouquet in my hand. I can now feel people's eyes on me, but I can't give them a look because my eyes are only fixed on one person.As I watched the man at the end of the aisle, it still hadn't sunk in to me that the day had come when we would marry each other. That the wedding that I have been dreaming about since I was a child is really happening today. It seems like the other day I met him but now I'm getting married to Jaxson Madrigal. If I was saying that I would marry the man who only met me three days ago, I don't think that it is really a short time. I feel that those three days were too long for us. A lot has happened between the two of us, and if you ask me, that'
"What are you doing here?""Joining my wife in his little party, I guess?"I jumped back in shock because I didn't realize that Jaxson was already here and he found me on the balcony.“Well, you shouldn't be here. Come on, Jax. Look around. There's no people that can see us. You can stop acting.” I said with a tone of annoyance as I gently pushed his chest away from me.Jaxson can stop pretending in front of me. He can just stop by fooling other people, and not include me. I know he's been dying to mingle with Daniella at this time. Well, too bad for them because I don't think that the people are gonna leave any time soon now."What do you mean pretending?""Oh please," My eyes rolled up as I turned sideways to not face.[“Catcat? Hello? Who are you talking to?”]My attention returned to my phone when I heard Charles' voice from it. I haven't answered the call yet and my brother is still on the other line and can hear what we are talking about."Hello? It's just someone I know. I'll c
"You might think that I'm a creep, but I love how you look like whenever I kiss you." Liam stated straight.I felt my cheeks burning like hell because of what he said. My blood rose to my cheek and I felt it was on fire."You look like a baby, every time.""Oh, shut up." I tried to avert my gaze from him.He extended his hands at me and just simply grabbed my hand. I'm slowly getting used to always holding Liam's hand. If back then I almost died from being so nervous, now it's just a little bit.But I feel like I'm walking on clouds because of the lightness of my feet and the feeling that you're floating.I looked around. There are still many people here even after the sun has set, most of the people wandering around are tourists like us.I lift my eyes and I can't believe what I see. What I used to see in shows is now in front of my eyes.I stopped walking for a while to take a closer look at Namsan Tower. No wonder why so many people want to visit it, because it is really beautiful
“How can you be so sure? What if they won’t give you a call? What if… Uh… There would be an emergency and they can’t contact you?” I insisted on the question once again. Jaxson can’t stay here all day, because if that happens, then I have to stay all day in this bed too. He will eventually find out that I can’t walk. “— Also, you won’t stay here with me all day even if you don’t go to your office. I have a call from Miranda agency that we have costume fitting today.” It’s not entirely a lie because the agency called me early in the morning that I have to be there with Daniella.I am planning to go regardless of what she can do to me. And what I am thinking of, is to sneak out this house with the help of Richard. Besides, he won’t suspect that Daniella did it to me because it seems to be an accident when I fall off my shoes. It’s only me and her who knows exactly who did it to injure me. I can’t help but to worry about Lance’s and Daniella’s plan for Jaxson and I. They are harming
I struggled to get my body moving and hit the button on the bedside table."Good evening, Aunt Elsie? Are you there?" I politely called the other line and then waited for him to respond.It's excellent that Jaxson has been using advanced technology throughout this bedroom. Since it is so distant from our room, I wouldn't have been able to call Aunt Elsie if I wasn't strong enough to go down to the kitchen."Hello, Mrs. Madrigal. My mother isn't here, do you need anything?""Angel?" I asked with my brows colliding. "Why isn't Aunt Elsie there? Did she go somewhere?" I became worried because this is the first time that she is not the one who answered my call."Well, technically she's not here. But she's also not outside the house. I think she's taking care of Mr. Madrigal that just came home, ma'am. Would you like me to call her?" He calmly answered with his soft and airy voice."No, no, it's okay..."If you need anything Mrs. Madrigal, I can bring it to you right away."I nodded quietl
"You're giving me tickles, stop." he chuckles as he continuously leaned away from me.I giggled as I continued to tease him. "You're such a ticklish baby.""I am not." he tried to straighten his face and stop laughing but he couldn't stop it.When I got tired, I leaned on his chest again and then fiddled with the button of his polo shirt."When are we going back to New Jersey?" I asked.It's like... I don't want to go back and face his life. I just want to stay here next to Liam and hug him all night, make him laugh, and talk to him."We're not going back unless you ask me to." he uttered.I moved a little away from his chest to look him in the eyes. "Really?"His hand came up to the top of my head and ruffled my hair. "Really."I took a breath. "If it's possible, I'll claim you and never give you back."He laughed softly and then turned his attention back to the laptop in front of him when he received an email.I brought my lips to his ear again, but this time, to whisper."Liam is g
[THIRD PERSON POV]Maddison and Blade are now inside the car who have been restless with their hands on the steering wheel and gulps one after the other.Even though Maddison couldn't understand why she was letting someone she didn't know very well take her somewhere, her body seemed to be telling her that it was okay to go with the man next to her now.As well as the strange feeling he feels in his heart, which he never once felt with Liam.Even though Maddison and Liam have been in a relationship, it cannot be denied not to see the chemistry between the two of them.Maybe because from the beginning Maddison was forced by her father to know and love Liam.When Maddison and Liam are together, her father treats her well and smiles tenderly. But every time Maddison doesn't know the location, or if Liam does me, his father hurts him.At first he didn't understand his father's repeated beatings, but he still did what he wanted. Even though he doesn't like Liam, he insists on being friends
"I missed the breeze here..." Maddison muttered as Blade pushed his wheel chair towards the shore of the sea. "I avoid even thinking about this place because of painful memories." he smiled bitterly.When they got there, Blade stopped pushing and then he sat next to its wheel."Me, I'm always here to calm my mind. It's often on top of the rocks so I can see the entirety of the surroundings. I still remember that we always hang out there." he smiled as he reminisced their past.Maddison also seemed to smile as she looked up at the place where Blade was looking."I know... you told me before, I'm the only woman you'll bring there. Did you keep that promise?”Maddison turned to Blade who looked away and then pretended to be playing with the sand.Maddison let out a small laugh. "Don't tell me...""I brought Crystal there once." Blade uttered but he still couldn't look straight.Maddison only laughed harder that made Blade turn to him. "What's so funny? Aren't you angry?”His eyes rounded
I could hardly believe the words coming out of his mouth.How is it that the Vince that I just recently met who works for Steven's company, is the one they say is the youngest heir of the Celestials who was our batch when we were still studying at Harrison High?"B-But wait... If you're the Celestial I'm thinking of, does that mean you also went to university at the same time Steven and I?" I asked in surprise.As far as I remember, there was always talk about who the heir was. The only heir I knew at our school was Steven.“Yes, I attended Harrison High with you. Like I said, if you only knew how to look back, you would have recognized me. You couldn't even notice me or turn a blind eye because your eyes were too direct on that man."I bowed down because of what he said. Come to think of it, I only have one friend and that's Mavi. I was careful to get to know someone else because I was afraid that Steven would get jealous. Even with Mavi, I can't always give him time because Steven d
“Babe...”A soft voice woke me up from sleeping soundly. Even if I don't open my eyes, I knew well that this is Jaxson.I giggled when I felt his soft lips on my forehead, trying to wake me up. He never missed any morning to give me a sweet kiss as a morning gift. We really are a couple and I still couldn't believe.I scrunched my nose as I felt the pain on my foot as I slowly lift my body with the help of Jaxson supporting the back of my head.“Breakfast in bed.” My eyes slowly opened up as I was shock by the food in front of me. I couldn't help but be touched at what he did.“You are so sweet...” I muttered as I returned a gentle kiss on his forehead. “This is the very first time I'll experience something like this.” I honestly let out, feeling my eyes forming into doe because of the joy that the food brought me.This just came at the exact moment. I mean, I was planning last night to skip breakfast and pretend that I am not hungry just to wait for Jaxson to leave the house so I ca
I struggled to get my body moving and hit the button on the bedside table. “Good evening, Aunt Elsie? Are you there?” I politely called the other line and waited for her to respond. It's excellent that Jaxson has been using advanced technology throughout this bedroom. Since it is so distant from our room, I wouldn't have been able to call Aunt Elsie if I weren't strong enough to go down to the kitchen.“Good evening, Mrs. Madrigal. Are there any things you need, my mother is not around.”“Angel?” My brows furrowed as I questioned, “Why isn't Aunt Elsie there? She left— and where did she go?” As this was the first time someone other than she had taken my call, I started to get concerned. “Yes technically, she is not here. She isn't, however, in the yard either, ma’am. I believe she is taking after Mr. Madrigal who has just arrived home. Do you want me to call her for you?” In a serene tone, she responded, with her voice light and airy.“No, no, it's okay…”“If you need anything, Mrs
