Chapter 41 - A New Home

She and Sheila only needed one hour–to pack her clothes and other essential toiletries into her suitcases. She also loaded her mixers and cake utensils into the car. When Sheila said she could buy the newest and state-of-the-art utensils for her spare tools in the penthouse, Iris politely declined. “Oh, your loss, girl!” Sheila replied with exasperation. It was so weird when she arrived in the grand and luxurious building, where the top floor was where she would live from now on. The team of concierges also greeted her in front of the receptionist's desk. They helped her and Sheila into the private lift that brought her to the penthouse. The situation in the penthouse was the same as she was here last time. Pristine, luxurious ye

Chapter 42 - An Epiphany

ALEXANDERIris had difficulty adjusting to her life and integrating it into his. Alex should have known that. But this was one thing that he didn’t think through, and it made him feel like a fucker. Seeing how shy his fiancee was to put her stuff in this room spoke a lot. She was not a gold digger who took every opportunity to trap him, and two–she was the kind of person who made people like him become a lucky bastard because she would be his. If he believed in luck, this was his most significant luck yet. “Don’t be silly!” Iris interjected when he demanded her to repeat his words. He couldn’t stop his grin, “No, I am quite serious. Repeat after me,” he insisted. But Iris shook her head cutely. “Stop it!” she instead pinched his waist, and Alex just laughed while he brought Iris back into the bed. Lying down with her caged below him. She gazed at him full of trust, and it made him hard. He wondered how he could be so lucky like this!“Your life is going to change, and please bear

Chapter 43 - Newly Hired Lawyer

“What did you say?” Iris whispered. She stared at him with a confused expression on her beautiful face. “You heard me,” he replied to her. He waited for her to acknowledge their mutual attraction and stop denying their apparent connection. A string pulled their hearts into each other, even though they only met briefly. “You fall for me?” she was still in denial and kept repeating the words as if Alex would change his mind and retract his comments. “But we didn’t know each other well! How could you fall for me without knowing who I am?” Iris threw a valid question, but fuck if Alex knew the answer. He just felt right when he was with Iris. He could give no other proper explanation to justify his obsession with Iris. "I thought you were dreaming of a fairytale love story, babe? Isn't falling hard for you one of the checkboxes to tick for a fairytale?" He teased this woman. He reached for her wispy baby hairs and pulled them back in place. She was only opening and closing her mouth

IRISShe played her half day in a daze. The day she started weird and hot with Alex as a ‘real’ couple. They fought about her feeling that she couldn’t shake since Alex slid the pear-shaped diamond ring into her finger.Her dominant feeling right now was how she felt like she was a bought woman. However cleverly Alex phrased or convinced her that their relationship was not like that right now because it had progressed into a real marriage without a scam.And when she expressed her insecurity and the feeling out loud, it met resistance from Alex. He vehemently refused to label their relationship as like that.After that, when it came to the prenup discussion, she also heard the absurd things put into clauses by Alex.

Chapter 45 - Inner Conflict

Iris returned the dress and sent a regretful smile to the personal shopper. “Let’s find another dress, Uh… I think this one is quite expensive,” she said sheepishly. She then walked away from the dress and pretended to find and check other dresses. Iris acted nonchalantly and took a peek at the price tag of random dresses she encountered. They were priced above ten grand, and she gulped when the reality finally seeped in. These kinds of dresses were out of her league. Alexander Roman Browning was out of her league. She tried to regulate her breath to avoid being panicked in the fitting room. “Iris? Have you found the dress?” Maybe because she was here too long, Sheila came to check on her and asked her concernedly. “Oh, I am still searching for a suitable dress for me,” Iris replied. Well, to be perfectly blunt, she was still searching for the cheapest dress here, but she did not tell Sheila about that. “Actually Ms. Denvier found the one, but maybe she still hesitates to t

One step closer to securing their holy matrimony.He knew Sheila had already gone together with Iris and had a dress fitting for their hasty wedding.

Chapter 47 - Forming a Plan

After Sebastian briefed them about the possibility of his father’s involvement in Joseph Sanchez’s death, Alexander’s conscience caught up to him. “What about his family? How are they holding up right now?” Alex asked. “I put some men tailing the wife and his two daughters. Expect new information ready for you in the next several days,” Sebastian responded. “That motherfucker!” Alexander cussed at his father. He then diverted his focus to Brandon, who sat silently beside him after he came halfway to the discussion. “What is my father doing right now? What kind of messed up actions did he do?” he barked at Brandon. Brandon–knowing that Alexander has a foul mood after receiving this heartbreaking news, only answered calmly and did not talk back to Alex. “He is not in the office right now, but I have the info that he already colluded with a few of the board of directors and having a private lunch meeting in a private gentlemen’s club this afternoon,” Brandon replied calmly. “Who

Chapter 48 - Wedding Preparation

IRIS Days came in and out blurry in Iris’ dazed mind. After she had a dress fitting two days ago and Alex came to check up on her–her days were filled with Sheila and the ultra-fast preparation for the wedding. She had to put an announcement in front of her shop, stating that the shop would be closed for one week due to personal reasons. Iris also regrettably had to cancel the order and profusely apologize to her loyal customers because she couldn’t make the cupcakes. Now, she was waiting for the head florist to bring the sample of the flower bouquet for the venues, and she looked around the exclusive flower shop that usually caters for the wedding of high-end private clientele. For people like Alexander Roman Browning, and by extension, for her. “I think a bunch of lilacs is a lovely choice. What do you think, Iris?” Sheila asked her, and it made her stop daydreaming in the middle of the appointment room. “Oh, I love flowers. Anything will do, honestly,” Iris replied candidly

Chapter 49 - Bachelorette Party

Sheila brought her to a private club with her eyes closed by the black silk eye mask. She left the bachelorette party in Sheila’s hand. Iris just hoped that tonight would go without any significant problems. Remembering how crazy and spontaneous Sheila was–made her nervous and anxious. But Sheila assured Iris that everything was under control. “Leave it to me. You will leave this room ready to be a Mrs. Browning. This is the last time you become a single lady!” “Let’s have fun before Alex sniffs around and busts the party!” Sheila said with a string of fun giggles. Iris blinked to adjust her vision after Sheila led her to a special room–the opulent private room situated in the high-end nightclub in this luxury hotel. He could faintly hear the sound of EDM music played by a DJ from outside this soundproof room. The music was set in a sultry and seductive mood in this room. The lighting of this private room was also artfully set up to enhance th

Chapter 50 - Julianne's Call

ALEXANDERHe woke up first before Iris. It was understandable because his fiancee was totally out since last night’s bachelorette party, courtesy of his meddlesome but wholesome assistant–Sheila. Alex couldn’t get tired of seeing Iris peacefully sleep beside him in his bed. Knowing she was safe and sound under his protection was a satisfying feeling. He kissed her once again before he went out of bed and started his day. Iris only frowned in her sleep but did not wake up when he kissed her forehead. Alex chuckled when he saw that. His woman was really cute. He took a quick shower and put the coffee machine on work. While he was waiting for the coffee, he opened his iPad and checked emails for work-related and also from Sebastian regarding the progress of their investigations. He promised Adam to meet today and has already prepared the best proposal for him to invest in the Asia Pacific expansion investment. If the scheme and proposal were successful, Alex would use this to cemen
