"Lucien, my love, my CEO...my Mr. Wright..." she playfully smiles, seeing Lucien grimace from what she calls him. It's a kink he hasn't overcome to be affected with.Today, they are facing the altar to profess their vow of a lifetime commitment to God, family, and closest friends who were present to witness their intimate union. A union between a Wright and a Montes. A union not for another business venture, not a merger, not an alliance of power, connection, and influence, but a union of two hearts who battled uncertainty to be together. "I was a pauper compared to the high pedestal you are in. I'm a nobody. You're the star and I'm the dust. I'm just a mere spectator of your greatness. Two polar poles apart. We are everything opposite, Mr. Wright" she sadly smiles while Lucien incredulously glares at her. The officiating priest remains smiling as he listens together with all the guests."I am a dreamer...ambitious. But never did I dream of having a Wright, particularly, CEO Lucien
"Wait till you see who joins the exhibit" Dom whispers near her ear. They are entering the venue where Dom is one of the main artists to exhibit his works.Turning to him with her questioning look, she waited but the man just winks at her before turning away."What Dominic said?" Lucien asks, seeing her look perplexed."I don't understand either. Dom could sometimes be an ass" she shool her head while they continue to walk."Language, my doll" he glares at her but tightens his hold around her waist. His hand rests on the side of her baby bump."Sorry... " she sheepishly grins.The hall is starting to get filled with other guests and several times, they have to stop to greet other guests. Lucien as famous as he is become occupied with associates who approach to make their presence known. With her in his arms, he would cut short any conversation he was engaged but it would just be replaced by another. "The payment to be a Wright" Lexie playfully whispers as she leans closer, intention
Trailing her eyes to the man who blocks her view of the pregnant woman, she smiles. "I could see how he would always protect you. He never did that to me" she whispers, almost inaudible."Have you realized, you had issued a threat to my wife, Miss Johnson? You, threatening a Wright is unforgivable" Lucien dangerously mutters and was about to step forward when a hand stopped him. His body tensed at the gentle squeeze around his arm amid the consuming anger engulfing him. "No one dares to threaten my wife in front of me" the spine-chilling terror fills everyone's core. Lucien looks dangerously deadly with his eyes fixed on Ellen."She is not threatening me, my love" her soft voice caught his ears.Turning to Lexie, his unconvinced look meet her. Torn between protecting and believing, he narrows his eyes, gauging her words. He was ready to wage war on the person who threatened their peace but his wife is looking at him with begging eyes."She is...complimenting me, Lucien" she added af
"That is Straw, papa, not Berry" Lucy corrects his father.Lucien stares at his son before glancing at the chickens. He still can't compromise how his son knows who's who. The chicken looks the same."This is Straw" the boy got another chicken who looks exactly the same as the first one."Oh, I didn't notice, buddy. So this is Straw" he grins while staring at the chicken."That's enough you two. Baby love, spare your father. He looks ready to call for a stockholders meeting to identify which chicken is which" Lexie amusingly interrupted the father and son. "The goats too, my doll. How would I know who's Bubbles and who's Snow? They look the same" Lucien hopelessly whispers to his wife."Neither do I, so don't feel bad. Only Lucy knows who's who" she chuckles while patting Lucien's sweaty face. They are at the animal shed after Lucy eagerly wanted to introduce his pets to his father. They arrive early in the morning on the island and they just took a short rest before their boy jumps
Prestige, glamour, elegance. Elements surrounding Lexie in her new world.Despite having given birth four months ago, she is now back in shape to model one of her designs in the biggest fashion show in Paris. The most awaited collaboration between Arman Varce and Silhouettes Designs. "Good evening Paris, please welcome the men and women behind this prestigious night, Arman Varce and Silhouettes Designs, President Arvin Deutche. Together with the magnificent designers behind these fabulous designs" Together with the cheers and applause is the festive upbeat music as the group marched along the catwalk previously grazed by hundreds of designers' masterpieces. Led by Arvin Deutche and Arman Varce the whole team waves and bows at the guests gracing the event. Lexie looks around, basking in the jovial atmosphere around. It was a success and she was part of it. Tonight, she shares the limelight with other famous fashion designers and models. And the world is watching as she claims her o
Expectant eyes fixed on the model while she quietly stand beside the wealthy CEO."Hello, Miss Montes. You need something from me?" Arman Varce amicably asks after he came to his senses. The sudden appearance of SD's designer surprised him. He doted on her, that's undeniable, but not in the middle of an important discussion with the ruthless CEO. He doesn't want to miss the chance to talk to him. "Nothing, Mr. Varce" her smile adds to her charming feature. She has been standing next to Lucien but he has been giving her a cold shoulder. He hasn't even glanced at her. Mr. Varce waited for her to leave, which she didn't do. She is waiting for the man beside her to acknowledge her but after a while of standing, she still got none. Heaving a sigh, she looks around and saw Ben's sympathetic look on her. He also knows her predicament. But then it made her remember something. She made Lucien promise not to get involved with her in any circumstance. Which is obviously what he was doing. Wh
The day after the successful fashion show, the Wright family went out in public. With Lucien carrying the four-month-old Alek and Lexie holding Lucy they leisurely walk around the Eiffel Tower. "Whoah... It's magnificent, Papa!" Lucy excitedly raves as he looks upward to the towering structure afar. "Yes, it is, buddy. And we will be going there" Lucien replies with a wide smile. His son's happiness is swelling his chest with inexplicable contentment. "I'm excited, mama" Lucy turns to his mother who smiles at her. They could arrange for a discreet entrance to the Eiffel tower but the couple has decided to make Lucy's first experience to be as normal as it could be. They wanted him to mingle with other tourists while he admires the scenery around. The couple's public appearance created an uproar among media companies as they camp near the whole entourage. Though Lucien has brought his children in public, security personnel were doubled to ensure their safety. Ben and his elite tea
"Good day, Madame Wright, CEO Wright" teachers, and even students greeted the serious-looking couple as they strode the hallway of Wright Star Academy.Lexie's heels were digging at the well-polished floor, echoing amid the silence."Good afternoon, CEO Wright, Madame Wright" the principal instantly stands from his seat the instant Lucien and Lexie enter the room."Good afternoon" with a grim and serious tone, they greeted back before their eyes looks around the room. Two groups of boys were quietly sitting two arms apart from each other.The group with three boys was way bulkier and obviously older than the two slender boys at one corner. He was told they were in grade six.Teachers were fidgeting beside the principal while the rest were looking tense at the arrival of the couple."Speak. What happened, Mr. Crain?" casually, Lucien commands, ignoring the chair being offered to them."CEO Wright, these seniors have already apologized to Lucas and Alek" Mr. Crain, though nervous around
