All Chapters of That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

It's finally that moment I have been waiting for. That warm, soul-filling and heart-fluttering moment when you realize the wealthiest, drop dead gorgeous CEO Jason Black wants to spend the rest of his next six months with you. Few hours more and I would be in my white wedding dress, under the white arch surrounded by my favorite white lilies. I think the best part of it being your wedding day, is that you get a free ticket to be genuinely happy. No regrets, no negative energy, no past incidents that you have to reflect upon. Just undiluted happiness that runs deeper than what's displayed on your face. It runs deep into your veins and is circulated around your entire system. Nervous? Not at all. I wasn't tensed or having this fear of what would happen after today, I was just extremely cheerful. My wedding is set to begin by 12pm at noon. Yes, as early as that cause Jason wanted me to get enough rest before the after party which would start around 5pm and probabl

MADELYN. Sweaty palms, rising anxiety and a whole different heart beating wildly in my chest. Before arriving at the wedding ceremony, I was sure that nothing would go wrong. I had on the brightest smile, not because of the pictures to be taken for the media, but because I was genuinely happy. People might find it strange that I choose to be happy about getting married to someone who I wasn't in love with, but there was just this joy that comes with being a bride. Whether or not you are getting married to a man who is going to sign the divorce papers after six months, the excitement would still be there. My father led me down the aisle. Craig was looking superb in his tuxedo which almost stole the spotlight from the groom. Dad looked really nice in his suit, and my lips happened to be hurting from smiling too frequently and too broadly. Did I leave out my little diamonds? Not at all. They all looked stunning in their suits and gowns. Jason couldn't

MADELYN. “ Where is Natasha?”A question I have asked for the tenth thousandth time without getting the response I wanted to hear. “ She's on a plane at this moment, to C. What part of what I said don't you understand? Cause I have been repeating it.” Jason, my fed up husband had since collapsed on her armchair. The cops had called several times within the few minutes we were here, to remind us not to take matters into our own hands. “ Why isn't your number connecting? And why is her phone switched off? Why is she in a haste to leave the country?” Everything makes sense. The connection between it all makes sense. But, my husband was too blind too see through this lady's pretense. “ She has a flat battery. She left immediately cause she was heartbroken to see Jason get married to you. Does that answer all your questions? Can't you see we have no hand in whatever crime you are accusing us of.” I wasn't satisfied. It was al

CARA. My jaw dropped when I saw Nicholas stroll in with Chloe. Fingers entwined, they walked slowly towards us. Madelyn and Jason have been gone for a while now. Jason's grandma sat with the other kids, sobbing and praying that Chloe be found. Her prayers have been answered. But I think she needed to pray no one gets hurt today, cause Nicholas wouldn't be here to just congratulate the new couple. “ Cara? What's wrong?”No one had seen them yet. I pointed in their direction, and grandma went hysterical and began screaming. The kids ran to their sister, while Xavier just kept walking. “ Nich.. Xavier, it's good to see you again. It's been ages since we last saw you.” His cover was almost blown. The old lady was still within reach, we can't afford to make little mistakes. “ CEO Adrian. I see you all came for Madelyn's wedding. Speaking of Madelyn, where's she? And is the party over already? Such a shame, I and Chloe were in a haste to get back to the ve

JASON I have been quiet for too long. If what Madelyn is saying is true, then I'm sure Xavier and Cara have something up their sleeves. I never trusted her family, not even a bit. I can't bring myself to, not after what they did to her in the past. Such sins can't be erased with a single apology. Keep the fucking apologies to yourself cause there's nothing broken that an apology can fix. Can it fix her mental health? Her reputation in the society? Or the brunt she has to bear for disconnecting herself from such a family? Cara would be dealt with later, Nicholas is my major target for now. “ Going to fix what, Jason? Please don't go anywhere. That's why I have held back from telling you all this while. I knew you might react this way.” “ Now that you have told me, you might as well wish you didn't, cause I'm going to send a photo of how Xavier looks the moment I'm doing having a friendly conversation with him.” I stormed out of the room
