Yes I do (Gemini pov)“Okay, okay, you have to breathe Gemini,” Penelope said Ten minutes remaining before I walked down the aisle, I was nervous, tho, it was just a contract marriage, and I was nervous as hell. “Am breathing, am breathing” I said to Penelope, who was my maid of honor. “I just need my mom's necklace, where is it, I left it on the table” I added “Calm down, I kept it away for Safekeeping, let me get it” Penelope assured meShe came back empty-handed. “Where is it?” I asked “I vividly remember keeping it in the guest room, I can't find it there,” Penelope said I stared at her lost for words, “Penelope this can't be me, I need that necklace, I don't think I can do this, I don't think I can go through with this marriage.” “Are you for real, you want to end this marriage with Simon, who you are clearly head over heels for because of a necklace you got from your grandma this morning?” Penelope asked in disbelief “You don't get i
The birthday surprise(Gemini pov)I walked into the living room, finding the house unusually quiet. I assumed Simon must have left early. One of the new maids Simon had hired, Tracy, greeted me with a cheery "Good morning, ma'am."I smiled back at her. "Hello, Tracy."She relayed a message from Simon. "Mr. Simon asked me to tell you to please have breakfast before leaving the house this morning," she informed me.I chuckled and replied, "Did you also tell him that I'm not a baby and he shouldn't worry about me?" I playfully waved her off as I made my way to the dining table.Sitting down, I couldn't help but feast my eyes on the array of food spread out before me. My stomach growled in anticipation as I absentmindedly rubbed it."Well, little one, Daddy said we should get fat for him," I teased, taking a bite of a delicious pancake drenched in maple syrup. It tasted heavenly.The other maids filed in, greeting me with warm smiles. I waved back, still fixated
The unexpected news (Gemini pov)I turned to stare at my grandmother, filled with worry and concern. Was she okay? Why was she talking as if she was going somewhere far?But just then, my thoughts were interrupted as Simon stood up to make a toast."Can I have everyone's attention, please?" he announced, holding his glass of champagne. It was clear that he was drunk. In a panic, I quickly pulled him back down to his seat.I could see the smirks on everyone's faces, except for my dad. They were enjoying my embarrassment."Will you stop drinking for once?" I whispered, leaning closer to Simon. "Or else, you're going to make it obvious that you don't want to be here.""Well, I don't, but that doesn't stop me from making a toast to my dearest wife," Simon slurred, standing up once again. "Sorry for that little drama. Now, where was I?"I folded my arms in protest, waiting for him to embarrass himself."First of all, thank you all for taking the time to grace
The secret Affair(Gemini pov)“What do you mean, she can't be discharged yet” I asked pacing back and front In my grandma's office. “Doctor, I just need the truth, what is going on” “Mrs Sinclair, I promise to inform you once the results come out today, trust me,” the doctor said at the other end of the line.“Please keep me updated and take care of my grandma” I replied begging as I ended the call.It has been five days since my Grandma got admitted into the hospital, the doctors kept running back and forth with different tests and no results, and I was getting impatient.I held my stomach as I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen, clenching onto the table I tried to walk back to my seat. I was overstressing myself and my baby I knew but I had no choice, ever since Grandma collapsed I had to take control of things in the gallery. I was already busy trying to get my mom assets from my stepmother.I just hired a private investigator to do some diggin
Chapter 34 (All because I love you) (Gustavo pov)I watched as Mrs. Ciara settled the bills at the station, frustration building within me as my car had been confiscated. I was asked to return later to retrieve it, but anger and rage consumed me.That wretched Simon was unbelievably lucky to have escaped my grasp. Fuming, I threw my jacket to the ground."Are you serious?" Mrs. Ciara exclaimed, her frustration evident. "What were you thinking, engaging in a car chase with Simon?""It's none of your business," I simply retorted.She scoffed, her tone laced with annoyance. "You should be grateful that I decided to come along. If Saint ever finds out about this, everything will be over. Maybe you should consider leaving Gemini alone."I glared at her, the thought of leaving Gemini never crossing my mind. She was mine from the very beginning, and who did Simon think he was? How dare he try to take what was rightfully mine!"Wher
Chapter 35 (The story untold) (Simon pov)It has been two days since she confessed her feelings for me, and I find myself unsure of how to respond. Should I have sent her a reply? These thoughts have been swirling in my mind, distracting me from my work at the New Heart Foundation.As I sat at my desk, Hailey came in with the documents I had requested. I thanked her and began reviewing them. My suspicions were confirmed - Gustavo was indeed up to no good.One name in particular caught my attention - Sevan Holding. I had heard of this company before, but I thought it had gone bankrupt. How was it still functioning?Curiosity piqued, I called Hailey back into the office. I asked her if we had received an offer from Sevan Holding, as I vaguely remembered. She confirmed my recollection, but I had instructed her to hold them off, deeming their offer suspicious.Curiosity getting the better of me, I asked her about the details o
Chapter 36 (The plan)(Gustavo’s Pov)I stared blankly at the ceiling, my heart still in pieces after Gemini shattered it just three days ago. The memory of her callous rejection weighed heavily on my mind.Tiara rolled over to face me, her hand gently caressing my bare chest. "What are you thinking about?" she asked, concern evident in her eyes.I brushed her hand off and sat upright. "You should get dressed and leave," I told her, trying to keep my tone firm.Tiara looked at me with confusion and hurt. "But my mom is still in Paris. I don't need to leave so soon," she pleaded."I'm a busy man, Tiara. And don't you have school? Senior year, right?" I responded, trying to sound reasonable. I walked to my wardrobe, grabbed my work clothes, and laid them out on the bed.She sighed and got out of bed, standing before me. I couldn't help but notice her young beauty, her vulnerability. I walked closer to her, gent
Chapter 37 (Sevan holding)(I years ago )(Gustavo’s POV)"Have you heard the news?" the lady asked the other lady sitting across from her in the cafeteria."What, are you getting married again?" the other teased, causing the first lady to roll her eyes."Sevan Holdings is going to be shut down," the first lady finally said.As I sat there, I couldn't help but eavesdrop on their conversation. Sevan Holdings... what were they talking about?I pulled out my phone and quickly searched for more information. Finally, I found it. Sevan Holdings had declared bankruptcy and was being forced to shut down. It was an investment company located in the heart of New York. How had I never heard of them before?"That's too bad," I muttered to myself, dropping my phone back onto the table. But my curiosity got the best of me, and I continued to listen in on their conversation."A friend of my husband's works there," the second
