All Chapters of The Substitute Groom: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Nathan's Pov Walking out of my closet looking all dressed for work, I came in front of my dressing mirror to fix my tie. Once I was done with my tie, I put on my wrist watch, then some spray. I grabbed my phone and my car keys, then made my way down stairs with my bag. Making my way to the dinning, I met my mom and dad sitting there enjoying their breakfast. "Good morning mom." I greeted with a kiss to her forehead as usual. "Thank you darling." Mom said with a sweet smile. "Good morning dad." I greeted dad who seemed busy with his newspaper as usual. "You're up quite early than usual, why is that?" Dad asked, folding up his newspaper. "Yeah, our company is having a meeting with those new investors of ours that I told you about the other day." I explained, taking a slice of my toasted bread. "Oh, I see. I didn't know it would be today." "Actually, it wasn't supposed to be today. I actually scheduled it for today, I thought it would be better for the company to accept

Nathan's Pov I made my way downstairs, all dressed for work. I have a board meeting by 8 Am with my staffs. I woke up a bit late today, I stayed up all night talking with Paisley and tried finishing some office work. It's 7:20 am already, I need to have my breakfast quickly if I have to make it to the office on time for the meeting. Making my way to the dining area, dad and mom were already there. Dad was reading his usual newspaper over his coffee. Mom's busy with her phone, while taking her tea. "Good morning." I greeted, while taking my seat. "How was your night, honey?" Mom asked, dropping down her phone. "It went well." I said, taking a bite from my toast bread. "But you look exhausted." Mom said, studying my face. "Oh come on, Molly. Your son is an adult, not a child. Stop treating him like one." Dad said to mom, putting down his newspaper. "Stop saying that. He is still like a child to me, and will always be." Mom said with a pout, making me chuckle on their li

Nathan's Pov "Her being in love with me has ruined everything! I do not want to get married or be disowned, I do not know what to do about this." He said, looking frustrated. "You sound like marriage is a death sentence…" "... because it is for me! I’m not caught out for this marriage shit, I still wanna have some fun." "Getting married isn't a death sentence, Nolan. It's something beautiful if it's built with love, but it can be a disaster if it isn't built with love." "I do not need a lecture about marriage, I need a lecture on how to get out of this shit." "Nolan, listen. I think marriage is going to be good for you. Trust me." "No it's not, never!" "You are sounding like you've got a choice in this." He is beginning to get me upset in all of this. "You’re beginning to sound like dad." He said, storming out of the room with a loud bang of the door. Why doesn't he understand? Marriage is a good thing, why is he overreacting? **** I've been trying for the p

Savannah's Pov I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I’m looking so beautiful in my silver diamond sleeveless ball gown. The beautiful necklace and matching bracelet mom gave me are looking so beautiful on me, it matches with my gown. Mom had helped me pack my hair into a high bun with loose strands of my hair dancing beside my temples. Forget looking all beautiful, my heart can't stop somersaulting! Today I will be getting engaged to the man I've loved all my life! I do not know how to express the happiness bubbling Inside me. All I know is that I can't stop my heart from racing so much! I really miss Paisley at the happiest moments of my life. I've been trying to get through to Paisley for days now but I can't, I only received a text from her saying she is busy with work and will get back to me soon. I hope to reach her soon and share all these happiness with her before my wedding day. Knock! Knock! I snapped out of my thoughts on hearing the knock on my door. I tur

Nathan's Pov I came out of my room and to the hallway. Everywhere seems so busy, the servants are running up and down with decorations. Tomorrow is actually the wedding day and mom with the hired wedding planners has been so busy after the engagement ceremony because we planned on using our house as the reception venue, since our house is large enough for such things. I should be happy for my brother, but i’m not because this is an arranged marriage which he isn't happy about but Savannah is. It's quite hard for me to wrap my head around everything and come up with a permanent solution to this without hurting anyone. It's at this point that I wish I could get in touch with Paisley, she always helps me out in situations like this. But I’m not able to get through to her, she must be very busy thinking about reaching me right now. That hurts. Speaking of which. Ever since my little argument with Nolan, we haven't really talked or seen each other and tonight is his bachelor's night
