Chapter One- The wedding
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride /Favy Star
It was late afternoon and the day she would officially become a wife.Looking out of the window, Carissa couldn't help but observe the beauty that graced her eyes.At the end of each aisle were balloons, ribbons and scented candles which did well in creating a perfect wedding scenery.From a distance, she caught a glimpse of her mother, who was grinning widely and making gestures to the caterers.“She must be so happy”, Carissa said to herself, with her face becoming downcast.She took in a deep breath as she shifted her gaze away from the window and strolled to the mirror.A sad smile made its way to her beautiful face.“A beautiful day for a beautiful bride!” Her mother, Mrs Williams, said in elation as she entered the room.Carissa responded with a smile, moving closer to her mum and entangling her in a tight hug.“Thank you mum”, she replied in a low voice, lowering her eyes to the floor to prevent her mother from catching a glimpse of her misty eyes.“Your dress is so beautiful!”

Stan laid on his bed, snoring lightly and ruffling his blanket at intervals. For the hundredth time, his phone rang aloud, causing him to let out a groan.“Who the hell is this?” He asked grumpily as he picked up the phone and made to throw it on the couch that laid opposite his bed.The shattering noise that emanated from the phone caused him to jolt up, with every bit of sleep making way out of his eyes.“Oh my God!” He yelped and jumped off his bed, rushing towards the phone and picking it up with regrets written on his face. He had just gotten the phone two weeks ago after they made the announcement of its release. It hadn’t stayed up to a month in his possession and despite how wealthy he was, he felt terrible that he had given the phone a crack.“Thankfully, it’s still working ”, he said as a massive breath of relief escaped his lips.He quickly checked through his call log, silently wondering why someone decided to stand as an obstacle to his Saturday sleep time.During weekd

“Mum”, Carissa suddenly called out to her mother, a few steps away from the door that led to the main entrance of the wedding location.“Yes my dear”, Mrs. Williams replied as she stopped walking to peer into her daughter’s beautiful eyes.“Can we wait a little more? I guess I’m becoming so nervous that my stomach is beginning to ache”, Carissa said and chucked nervously, lowering her eyes to the floor to hide the tears that welled up in them.“Oh my dear!” Mrs. Williams chimed in and placed her hands on Carissa’s forehead; in a bid to check her temperature.“The guests are waiting already. Do you think you would be better in the next ten minutes?” Her mother asked while she nodded her head in affirmation.“The bride would be out in the next ten minutes”, Mrs. Williams informed the man who stood by the door to open it up for the bride.Retracing their steps back, they made their way to the room they had come out from.Once Carissa was back in the room, she let out a considerable sigh

“What’s going on?” Stan asked Jay, who was pulling over aside the road.“We are probably out of gas”, Jay replied with a look of regret.“You’re joking”, Stan replied and broke into hysterical laughter.He returned his gaze to Jay, who stayed still and glared at him with a face that indicated that he was dead serious.“Where’s the nearest gas station?” Stan hurriedly asked as his heartbeat accelerated.“It’s quite far from here. I’m deeply sorry”, Jay apologized and got off the car.Stan stayed perplexed and dazed. He couldn’t ascertain the next thing to do because all his heart told him was how he was at the verge of losing Carissa forever.He jerked up and came off the car, rummaging his hand on his head and pacing around in utmost dilemma.Not only that, but he was unable to pinpoint why out of every other days, the gas chose to get exhausted on this day.“I would quickly send a message to one of your workers. Another car would be brought here”, Jay suggested, while Stan stared at

Stan smirked as he observed how emotional the guests had turned as a result of the sweet words Ethan had just uttered.He clenched his fists in fury and took a step closer, trying so hard to get the attention of Carissa, whose eyes were lowered to the floor.Carissa pondered over what Ethan had said to her. Her heart sank when she noted that she wasn’t moved by his utterance.“You would grow to love him”, she assured herself, even though the reality of that happening remained blurry.“Are you ready to say your vows?” The priest asked Carissa, causing her to jolt off her thoughts.She smiled calmly and nodded her head in affirmation.Taking a closer look at Ethan, she could see how much he anticipated the words that would come off her mouth.This was a beautiful moment. She could tell it was, with the look of admiration on the faces of the guests, along with the way everywhere remained dead silent.She shifted her gaze to the crowd once again, with a fabricated smile on her lips.“This

Stan got back to his apartment, where he threw his coat to the floor. He couldn’t ascertain the exact way he felt currently, but he was certain he felt a considerable chunk of relief.He gulped down hard as he walked to his wardrobe where a small box laid.He picked it up and stared at the ring intently, recalling how he had gotten her the ring with all his savings, about a year ago.“Is everything okay?” He had asked Carissa, who appeared to be gloomy and lost in thoughts.“I’m not certain that I’m okay!” Carissa had replied, causing him to take his hands off the box that laid in his pocket.“What’s wrong, my love?” He had asked a worried looking Carissa.“My mother, she cried all through yesterday”, Carissa had said to Stan, who gulped down hard and lowered his eyes to the floor.“Her debts are due soon, and she has no idea of how to pay them off”, Carissa had said to Stan, who was blank on what to utter.Back to the present, Stan held the ring and let out loud laughter which transi

Carissa finally decided to put an end to her drama. After what ensued during the wedding, she was rushed to the hospital.All those while, she left her eyes closed, totally aware of everything that was taking place around her.She heard Ethan’s worried voice and then that of her mother, who was sobbing quietly.At several points, she made to jerk up and tell her mother that everything was fake and made up.However, she was certain that would only trigger trouble, which she wasn’t ready for.Finally, she heard a doctor entering the room and running some tests on her.After about two hours, she finally opened her eyes, giving them the intuition that she had just gained consciousness.“Mum, what happened?” She asked pretentiously, peering into the worried eyes of her mother.“You passed out earlier”, Mrs. Williams explained as Carissa lowered her head to see that she was still clad in her wedding dress.“Oh my God! During the wedding?” Carissa asked aloud as she looked at her mother, who

Ethan knew that something was wrong with her. She appeared extremely disturbed and avoided his gaze at intervals. “Look at me”, Ethan said, as he cupped her cheeks into his hands, trying to ascertain what was going through her mind.“I’m fine”, Carissa said immediately, moving backwards until his hands dropped from her face.“I would take you home”, Ethan announced as he stood up and strolled to the door, gesturing for Carissa to come over.Carissa was about to jerk off the bed, but remembered that she should still show a glimpse of weakness.At this, she let out a groan as though she struggled to get off the bed.Mrs. Williams rushed towards her and led her to meet Ethan, who stood by the door.“I will handle her from here”, Ethan said to Mrs. Williams, smiling widely at her.He led Carissa out of the hospital room, with his hands wrapped around her waist and her head bent down to his shoulder.They got to the car and settled in, smiling at each other calmly and running out of words

It was almost an accident…Carissa heaved a massive sigh of relief, not only because they’ve just escaped an accident that would have claimed their lives, but because she didn’t get to reply to him with those words.“Are you okay?” Ethan asked Carissa the moment he recovered from the shock.Carissa nodded her head, not having any words to utter.Ethan heaved a considerable sigh of relief as he continued driving, darting his eyes to Carissa, who was clearly lost in thoughts.“We are here!” Ethan announced as he brought the car to a stop. He quickly got off and rushed to open the door for Carissa.“I can carry you if you don’t mind”, Ethan said in a voice that caused Carissa to blush in embarrassment.“No, thank you”, Carissa said as she smiled and placed her hands into his that was stretched out to her.Holding hands together, they made their way into the house.They got to the living room, where they sat down and glared at each other.Ethan had countless things to say, but currently,

“Oh my God!” Stan groaned as he landed with a thud.He remained still, hoping that the sound he had created didn’t distort the sleep of anyone in the house.After some minutes, he stood up and dusted his trousers, looking around and ensuring that he wasn’t being watched.A massive sigh of relief escaped his lips as he silently trudged towards the window.He glanced around at intervals, trying so hard to remain discreet in other to avoid getting discovered.It was 2:am, some hours after the failed wedding of Carissa and some hours after her return from the hospital.Stan had asked Jay to keep an eye on Carissa and from the information he received from him, there was no space for him to come in at that point.He needed no one to notify him that sneaking in at midnight might be the perfect way to meet with Carissa.At this, he had waited in his car for over three hours, watching the house from a distance and trying to ascertain when they would have retired to bed.At about 12:am, he obse
