Gripping her flowing gown tight, Mia shot daggers at Lucas, who wore a sly grin on his face as he watched her trudge after Xavier.

"Game's on," Lucas muttered, wincing at the pain in his groin. "Ahh! That bitch."

Meanwhile, Mia struggled to keep pace with Xavier's long strides, and as they entered the ballroom, gazes followed them. Music played softly in the background, with chatter filling the air, because the night was still young.

"Xavier," Mia called, breathless.

He didn't respond, and she couldn't see his face, only his broad masculine back as he walked out of the building, with Silas trailing behind. A bodyguard opened the door of the Roll Royce, and Xavier slipped inside elegantly. Mia's hazel eyes drooped in confusion, but she followed.

"It's not what you think," Mia began immediately the car started moving out of the place slowly, but when she turned to face him, his dark gaze pierced hers, his eyes a deeper shade of grey, making Mia's heart thud in her chest. She can't be in

    Tammy's eyes locked onto the TV screen, the news anchor's voice was filled with excitement: "Billionaire Xavier Singh finally reveals mysterious fiancee at engagement party." And pictures and videos clips that were taken in front of the magnificent building surfaced. "Is.. is that.." Tammy stammered, her eyes still fixed to the TV, and her lips trembled, unable to form coherent words. Bella hesitated, it's obvious Mia didn't tell her mother and sister. How dumb of her, but there was no hiding now. "Yes, Mia is engaged to Xavier Singh." The words barely left Bella's lips, before Amelia stiffened, her heart twisting in shock, and her body went limp, dropping to the cold floor. "Mom!" A cry tore out of Tammy's throat, echoing off the walls as she raced towards her mother, with Bella behind. "No! Mom, please," she begged, grasping Amelia's hands, her lips quivering. "Aunt, please wake up! Check her pulse! Call the doctor!" Bella dropped to her knees, her eyes wide with horror, her sh

    Her body went limp in the arms of the first man holding her, and his eyes widened, "what the f**k!" "Is she dead?" asked the second man, moving closer to feel her pulse and the first man shook his head, "She's just unconscious." The hoodie guy who she had hit, laughed mockingly, "That's none of our business, let's get down on this bitch, dead or alive." The fourth one hesitated, "we should let her go." His words made the hoodie guy's eyes turn into a ball of fury, and he faced the fourth hoodlum, throwing a punch across his face, "We're f**king getting down on her, understood?" They nodded in affirmation, and he turned to the man holding Mia, before hurling her onto his shoulders. As they were about to disappear into the darkness, headlights flashed in their direction, and they froze on their feet. Four cars screeched to an halt besides them, and hefty men in black suits dashed out, with wired earphones connected to their ears, their faces mean and professional. "Let go of th

    *THE NEXT MORNING*Mia's eyelids fluttered open to the bright rays of sunlight filtering into the room. She groaned, mumbling as she sat up groggily, "Who the hell opened the curtains this early?" But when she looked around, a gasp escaped her lips as shock registered on her face. This wasn't her room. Where the hell is she?This room was extremely luxurious, it had royal purple colored curtains, draped on the floor to ceiling glass windows, there was a huge dazzling chandelier hung up and her eyes continued to run around the room. A fancy decorated closet was at the side of the three meter sized bed she sat on, and an enormous mirror stood on the wall beside a 10 inches plasma TV screen.This place looked beautiful, like a five star presidential suite. A throbbing headache hit her as she tried remembering how she got here, and she winced. Did she have a one night stand with a billionaire? Or maybe the president?'You're engaged, remember?' her subconscious mind whispered. 'It's just

    Xavier returned his gaze to his system, his cold, grey eyes narrowing slightly as he scrolled through some documents. Silas walked in, the soft sound of the vast translucent door sliding open and he bowed, "Mr Singh, your fiancee just left the estate. Location indicates she's heading to the hospital."Xavier didn't respond, his expression remained unchanged. His brows dipped and he nodded curtly, his eyes still fixed on the screen. Silas strutted forward, placing some files on his desk, "These contain all information about the actress Mr Martinez recommended as the female lead in our movie project. She'll replace Harper Hernandez."Xavier's gaze flickered to the stack of files, then back to the screen, "I'll review it," he replied this time, his deep voice voice firm.Silas fidgeted for a moment, closing and reopening his mouth intermittently."Anything else?" His boss deep voice sounded."Yes sir, there's something else. Crystal Entertainment is planning to sign Harper under their la

    "You are so beautiful, ma'am," one of the hairstylist gushed and the others nodded in confirmation. Mia, who was lost in thought turned to look at the mirror, and a gasp escaped her lips."Is this...me?" She couldn't recognize herself, she was completely different. She could see a stunning, classy bride staring back at her."Thanks," she mumbled, lifting her finger to touch her face. The makeup was perfect, her heart shaped red lips glossed with nude lipstick. Her chestnut brown hair, which was always kept in messy buns, was now styled in an elegant braided bun, with crystal hairpins that adorned it, exuding sophistication. Her softly defined hazel eyes shone brightly, featuring long, lush lashes. She wore specially designed pearl earrings, and a unique piece of diamond pendant hung on her neck, courtesy of President Singh. The makeup artists and hairstylists all beamed with pride as they inspected her, and they exited when the door opened.Tammy and Isabella walked in, their faces l

The priest reiterated, and Mia jolted out of her thoughts, glad that she didn't say that loud."Y..yes I do," she said slowly, her heart constricting and her breathing shallow, and sighs of relief filled the air.Xavier's gaze remained expressionless as they exchanged rings, and when his fingers brushed against hers, she pulled back quickly, making his brows furrow.'What's up with her?' he thought.After they were done, the priest proceeded to make his pronouncement, "By the power vested on me, I now pronounce you man and wife.
