The first time he had officially ‘met’ Ryelgin was not long after breaking up with Xyla at the Michelin restaurant.Louis sat at the cafe waiting for his lunch. He had his headphones on because he didn’t like the noise. He flipped through a magazine from the racks, and after a short time, there was an argument. “Willow, what are you doing? We’re in a restaurant. Go outside if you’re going to make a scene. Don’t affect the other patrons here.”The argument was so loud that it affected him. He wasn’t happy about it. Soon after that, the waiter tried to stop them, and one of the women started cursing. He threw the magazine on the table, got up, and walked toward them. That woman picked up the coffee from the table and splashed it on the other woman.“Godmother!” A boy in sunglasses stood up. He took off his sunglasses, and Louis was shocked when he saw the boy's appearance.‘Isn’t this the child from the academy, Waylon Vanderbilt?’What the child did next surprised him. The
The memory Louis had of Ryleigh was when she impressed the crowd on stage back at high school.He came forward and admitted that Willow indeed had done something like that in the restaurant. However, since Willow hadn't exposed her identity in front of everyone yet, he couldn't let the situation get out of hand, so he said, “Both sides are at fault. We can gather up and find a solution afterward. There's no need to make a scene out of it.”Ryleigh looked at him and asked, “Are you blind? How could you—”Russell interrupted before she could finish her sentence, “Shut up, Ryleigh! If I hear another word coming out of your mouth, I’ll punish you when we get home later!”Willow went forward to apologize to him, but he paid him no mind. He looked at Ryleigh, who was exasperated. He did not know why, but he felt that she was actually a pushover, although she looked like a paper tiger. When Maisie and Nolan appeared, Ryleigh walked up to her and complained, her mouth pouting, “Zee, you’
However, Louis couldn't sleep all night. After all, Ryleigh would roll down from her bed from time to time whenever he wasn't watching her. He stayed beside her bed for the entire night until she woke up. “You’re awake?”Although he was exhausted, he had to pretend that he was not. He took a look at his watch and commented, “Are you aware that you can really sleep?”“Louis? What are you doing at my house?” Ryleigh was stunned. “D-Did you help me change my clothes?”Looking at the fearful expression on her face, Louis couldn’t help himself and chuckled. He decided to tease her as he said, “What's there to see with that body of yours?”“You! Jack*ss!” Ryleigh shouted as she threw a pillow at him.He grabbed it midair and continued. “You threw up on me last night. Were you not my fiancee, I would have left you on the street.”After that, he threw the pillow back at her. He did not want her to know that he had been purposely waiting for her to wake up, so he asked, “Tell me, where
Nolan took Maisie by surprise. She turned her head around and said, “I’m cooking.”He chuckled deeply and said, “Yeah, I know. I can smell it from upstairs.”“Really? It seems like my cooking has improved a bit.” Maisie spooned out a bit to taste the flavor before passing the spoon near his lips. “Give it a try.”Nolan leaned over and pressed his lips over hers. Then, he laughed. "It's sweet." “You…” Maisie’s face turned red with embarrassment as she pushed him away. “You’re so shameless.”He let out a muffled chuckle as his chest vibrated. He turned her around and asked, "You just learned that I'm shameless after knowing me for so long?"He turned off the fire and lowered his head to kiss her. Today was another day Maisie fell for his charms again. As she responded to his passionate kisses, she complained in an intermittent whisper, "Sooner or later, I'm going to die in your hands.”He chuckled lightly and whispered into her ear, “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you’ll live a long
Louis wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said, “They have already left.”“Then we—” Ryleigh blinked her eyes, and before she could finish her sentence, Louis scooped her up from the floor and smiled at her. “Of course, we’re going back to start preparing for our wedding.”Ryleigh hugged his neck and said, "I want a very romantic wedding!"“And?” He chuckled.Ryleigh thought for a while and answered, “And a fancy carriage too!”Louis nodded in assent. After that, Ryleigh began to count her fingers and continued. “After we're married, you can't diss me, you gotta let me win when we're having a fight, and you must not flirt with other women.”Louis stopped and looked at the woman in his arms. “Since when did I flirt with other women?”Ryleigh was stumped. She looked at him and said, “I mean after we get married.” Then, she added, “People told me that a man will become a whole different person after getting married. What if you dislike me after I become fat and ugly when
Ryleigh replied, “I guess she’s almost done. She’s done her makeup already.”Larissa came and said, “The wedding is about to start. Where is Zee?”“I’m here.”Maisie came out of the dressing room in her wedding gown. The dark-colored wedding dress was exquisitely crafted and beautifully tailored, with a layer of gradient-colored tulle outside her gown that stretched to the ground.Three grooms were waiting in front of the carriages. After a while, they saw their brides walking toward them. Nolan had put on a double-breasted black tuxedo with gold lines on the sleeves, echoing Maisie's gilded black veil.Nolan stretched his hand toward her. Maisie held his hand, and he grabbed her into his arms. He scooped her up from the ground, and as he carried her into the carriage, he whispered into her ear, “You’re so pretty tonight, Zee.”Maisie chuckled lightly and replied, “You’re very handsome as well.”Nolan wrapped his arms around her waist and stroked her cheek through the veil.
Louis looked at her. “You’ve misheard. I didn’t say anything just now.”Robbin and Blake were rendered speechless.Ryleigh frowned. “Really?”Louis responded with a nod, then picked up a piece of cake and delivered it into her mouth. “Does it taste delicious?”“It’s not bad.” Ryleigh nodded, forgot what she wanted to ask, turned around, and started eating the cake.Louis looked at the dumbstruck Robbin and Blake and gave off a faint smile.Robbin and Blake gave him a thumbs-up.‘D*mn, bro. You’re totally in control.’On the other hand, because Barbara was pregnant, she could only accept the toasts and blessings from everyone with warm water instead of wine. Nina and Helios’ manager, Morgan, came up to them and proposed a toast, while entertainers and directors who were close to Helios came along too.Morgan laughed when he saw Daisie and Waylon. “Aren’t these two our young celebrities from back then?”Daisie remembered him. She was wearing a beautiful princess dress and nodde
Robbin helped at the grilling station while Blake was bartending for the guests.Maisie sat on the bench and stared into the night scene in the distance, holding a glass of red wine in her hand.Nolan found her after entertaining the guests. He walked toward her and sat down right next to her.Maisie leaned on his shoulder and gave off a slightly drunken smile. “Cherie and Dad would be very happy too if they were both here, wouldn’t they?”Nolan hugged her by her shoulders, lowered his head, and kissed the top of her head. “Yeah, they definitely would.”“Nolan Goldmann, I’m very happy.” She held his hand and interlocked both their fingers. “I don’t regret meeting you.”Nolan looked down at the person in his arms, who had blushing cheeks, and chuckled. “Zee, you’re drunk.”She sat up and frowned. “Since when am I drunk? I’m not!”With a soft giggle, he took her into his arms again. “Okay, you’re not drunk.”Maisie looked up at him and brushed her finger over the bridge of his h
