46.**Nicole's POV**As I sat among the flock of crowds, I felt irritated with every little thing they were doing. I was so annoyed that I literally had to stop myself so many times from going to the aisle and ripping the wedding dress off Kayla's body. The smile she had plastered on her face was annoying as well.I just wanted to tear everything apart, and as if on cue, the priest asked if anyone objected to the wedding.That moment, I felt like the chance to publicly disgrace them had finally come. It was time to end things once and for all, and this time around, I was sure there was no way I would fail.And with every fiber of my being, I stood to my feet and yelled the words that I've wanted to yell since I stepped my feet here, “Stop the wedding!” All eyes turned in my direction immediately. “I object to this wedding!” I yelled again and I could see surprise flash in Kayla's eyes.

47.**Nicole's POV**“Why… why… Why are you asking me that?” I stuttered, the shock still registered on my face. What prompted him to ask me such a question?He held my jaw and made me look up at him. “I don't think you should know the reason I asked yet. I'll tell you the reason in due time, but before that, I need to know if you're a virgin, or if you've been tainted.” He answered, his voice casual, like he hadn't just said the silliest thing on earth. It was an embarrassing question that made me uncomfortable. Why did he look so collected?Gosh!The moment turned awkward, and I bent my head. I dabbed my fingers together, avoiding his gaze. He didn't want to tell me the reason, and I'm literally dying to know what it is. If only I could know his reason, then I'd know whether to tell him the truth or not.In the industry, virgins were considered novices. When I was still a trainee, my madam strictly warned me not to embark on the route of sleeping with men to get to a desired position

48.**Nicole's POV**“Carson isn't his real brother?” I asked because it felt like I heard him wrong the first time.“Yes, he isn't. I became Easton's Butler upon his birth and took him as a son. His mother was the nicest woman I have ever seen, and she raised him to become disciplined and a fine young man. Easton was still a kid when Ariana, Carson's mother, came to the house pregnant, claiming Easton's father was responsible. Mr. Ferdinand couldn't deny it because he had a one-night stand with her once while drunk during one of his business trips, but Easton's mother was doubtful.”“What's Easton's mother's name?” I asked.“Genevieve,” He answered, and I nodded. “She suggested they pay Ariana off, but Ariana refused and insisted she must get married to Mr. Ferdinand. The marriage took place and everything changed. Easton and his mother were no longer treated right and when Ariana gave birth to Carson, it got worse. She compelled Mr. Ferdinand to do whatever she said and a few months

49.**Easton's POV**Her eyes were wide in shock as she looked at me. “Did you just say a club, or did I not hear you well?” She asked.“I'm sure there wasn't gum in my mouth when I said it,” I rolled my eyes at her. “Are you surprised?” I asked.“It's just that I didn't think of you as someone who goes clubbing.” She answered with her head lowered.“You're right. I'm not that kind of person, but the club serves as a place of distraction. The loud music takes away every other thought from your head, especially the ones you want to forget about.” I answered and she nodded in agreement.“You're right. I do need it as well. I'll change.” She rushed out of the room.I took the picture I've been staring at for a long time before Nicole came in and sighed. It was a picture I took with mum while I was still in first grade. Looking at the picture made me miss her more. I wished she was here to share in my wealth, that way, I wouldn't be having money for nothing.I balled my fists when I remem

Gentlemen do.” She rolled her eyes and got in by herself.I said nothing and drove to the club. When we got there, she got down from the car and smiled. We walked in together, welcomed by the music blaring from the speakers. We walked to the bar stand first and took a seat.Nicole ordered beer and poured herself a shot.“Want one?” She asked and I shook my head. “If you aren't going to drink beer, why did you bring me here?” She frowned.“I told you I came here for a distraction.”“Come on! Drinking beer is another form of distraction.” She poured me a shot and gestured for me to take it. I was hesitant but the frown on her face made me give in.I took it and sipped from it. She scoffed and shook her head.“Do you think this is wine?” She chuckled and drank.“Hey, handsome, how about I escort you to the dance floor?” I and N

51.**Kayla's POV**I sat on the chair with my legs crossed as I thought about the stunt Nicole pulled today. That girl sure thinks she can burst out of anywhere and ruin my wedding. How could she think of doing something so mean? Gosh!I was expecting her to make a move, which was why I prepared that video in advance, but I didn't know she would go this far. That was totally uncalled for.I sighed and massaged my temple. How on earth am I going to deal with this girl? I have to make sure she doesn't stick her nose into my business again.“Kayla?”I turned to see Frederick approaching me with a towel tied around his waist. He had just gotten out of the shower.“What's wrong?” He bent to my level and cupped my cheek.“I'm just annoyed at what Nicole did. How could she frame us for something we know nothing about just to spoil our wedding?” I asked and placed my palm on my forehead.“But you stepped in and saved the day, Kayla. You shouldn't beat yourself up over something you know nothi

Gosh, why did I peck him? Why did I do it?I covered my face with my palms as I paced around the room. I have freshened up, and worn my clothes but couldn't step outside my room because I was embarrassed. Why the heck did I do that? I still couldn't comprehend what got into me.I sighed and ruffled my hair.“You aren't out of the room yet? I made breakfast, you should come out and eat some.” Joan walked to where I stood and held me.I shook my head frantically. “I can't face him, Joan.” “Why?” She asked and I sighed.How on earth was I going to tell her that my emotions got the best of me and I pecked Easton. Goodness knows what he's thinking of me right now.“Just bring my food in here. I'll eat it here.” I requested. I didn't care if I had to avoid him for the whole day or even for the rest of

When she came into the house, she refused to acknowledge my mother as her co-wife and did all manner of things to get rid of her. All didn't work, and she resorted to poisoning her,” he explained, and the people present gasped.“That's not all, she made sure it was done neatly and did all she could to bury the secret in the rug.

I looked up at the ceiling and pictured Easton looking down on me. “Hey, handsome, today is my birthday. It was supposed to be my first birthday with you, and I had already thought of how today would have been, but everything got ruined. You died and left me all alone here to celebrate today on my own. You have plenty of explanations to give me when we see each other again, mister!” I snapped, hoping he would hear me wherever he was.I smiled as tears rolled down my cheeks.

I heaved a deep breath and stared at my computer. I missed Easton so much.

I'd suggest you take a two weeks break, go out for exercise, do recreational activities and go out to have fun more often. Your body needs it.” She suggested and Nicole shook her head.“I don't need any of that. Just hand me some drugs and I will be fine.” She countered.“Of course I'll give you drugs that'll ease your fever and make you feel better, but I won't go back on my word, Ms. Brennan.
