Chapter 91

"I’m going to turn in early tonight," Liam announced.As he left, I noticed he had barely touched his food, but no one made an effort to stop him. Lucius, distant and cold throughout the dinner, finished his meal without a word."Wasn’t that a bit harsh?" I whispered to him.Lucius shot me a look so sharp and irritated that it made me uneasy. He swallowed his last bite, tossed his napkin onto his plate, and stood up abruptly."Leonardo, we need to talk. Now," he commanded, storming off.The rest of us at the table exchanged confused glances. Leonardo, calm as ever and seemingly used to his cousin’s outbursts, rose from his seat without fuss."I’ll be back in a few minutes. Please, enjoy dessert, Marianne. It’s always a hit with our guests—our pastry chef is otherworldly," he said kindly before following Lucius.I offered him a smile as he left, though my attention was drawn more to the scene unfolding between the two cousins. Despite the alluring sight of the decadent dessert—a

Chapter 92

My throat burned and my heart raced uncontrollably, all thanks to the scare Lucius just gave me.“Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!” I snapped, completely frazzled.He looked at me, perplexed, and dropped my hand.“If you die, it’ll be your own fault. All I did was grab your hand. Why aren’t you at dinner?” he asked, suspicious.“Because… because I needed to go to the bathroom. I got lost on the way back,” I explained, trying to mask my nervousness at being caught snooping.“How could you get lost? There’s no way to get lost here.”I’d like to know that myself, but I just shrugged, pretending not to understand. He let the matter drop, and we returned to the dining room, where Leonardo was already seated, ready to finish dessert.Even the conversation between the cousins didn’t seem to encourage Lucius to engage with the rest of us at the table. If anything, it felt like he was even more distant now. Leonardo too seemed quieter than before.-I buttoned up my pajamas a

Chapter 93

"Do you think they’ll work things out before we leave?" I asked Lucia as I shook a rattle in front of Levi, who was mesmerized by the colors."They always do. This weekend has actually been pretty calm for our standards, especially with Lucius’s fiancée in the house. It’s a big deal," she joked."Were you expecting something worse than this? How bad could it have gotten?" I laughed.Lucia hesitated for a moment before giving in and confiding in me with a conspiratorial tone."Well, you could’ve been haunted by a ghost or… some living person."My face must have been a picture because it felt like both those things had already happened to me, but I was in denial. I laughed nervously, pretending her joke didn’t affect me. Lucia seemed happier with my reaction. Looking at her and these adorable, smiling babies, I couldn’t imagine how they lived in such a place."You and Leonardo, with the kids—you’re such a young family. Have you ever thought about moving somewhere… more modern?" I a

Chapter 94

I had a lot of experience with wedding planning, thanks to my failed attempt at marrying Andrew. That experience gave me a taste of what it was like, and I used that knowledge to organize my wedding with Lucius.Having an unlimited budget made things easier, but there was still a lot to plan and manage. In just a couple of weeks, I had to choose the reception venue, pick my wedding dress, decide on the decorations, select the music, the menu, and countless other details.To my surprise, the wedding I put together wasn’t grander than Amanda’s. It was smaller, more personal, filled with things I genuinely liked. This time, I didn’t have to worry about winning Serge’s approval or being “too ordinary” for my future in-laws. I focused on myself, a little bit of Jenna, and our vision of what Lucius might like.Of course, Lucius was still playing it cool, claiming he was busy with work. I didn’t really believe him. Analyzing his behavior over the past few days wouldn’t help me now, not whe

Chapter 95

I still thought it was too soon for Amanda to be pregnant by my ex under these circumstances, but I bit my tongue. I was supposed to have moved on, living the dream with Lucius.“It could be, but our wedding will be something intimate and private. We won’t have as many guests as you did,” I mentioned, thanking the server who brought me my coffee.“Intimate and private, and yet you invited my parents?” Andrew asked through gritted teeth.Oops. Guilty as charged. I had indeed invited my ex-in-laws just to show them what they were missing and, of course, to get under Amanda’s skin. As Lucius said, I couldn’t let go of this revenge.“Aren’t we family? It would’ve been unacceptable not to invite them,” I boasted with a malicious smile, sipping my coffee.Internally, I was dying of laughter at the hateful look Andrew gave me. I also enjoyed the way my dad nodded approvingly at my decision.“There’s something I still don’t understand, sister… When are we going to shop for your wedding d

Chapter 96

When the wine arrived on a tray of cocktail glasses, I got even more excited and started drinking happily. I told them all about my terrible encounter with Serge and Amanda, while they shared how they got stuck in an elevator that morning. We laughed, drank, and I even danced with Jenna for a bit on the dance floor downstairs while Derek entertained some acquaintances he had run into.After a few hours, and after waiting in a ridiculously long line for the women’s restroom, Jenna and I finally got to rest at our assigned table.“I swear, next time I’m using the men’s restroom,” my friend complained. I laughed heartily.“I’ll join you. They wouldn’t even notice,” I said.“By the way, does your boss know where you are tonight?”“I don’t think so. We haven’t spoken today. He’s still acting distant,” I revealed, feeling a little sad.“Not on my watch! Derek, Peter, come over here right now!” Jenna shouted, probably thanks to the alcohol.Derek and Peter, who was one of the acquainta

Chapter 97

Lucius's car parked near the curb where I stood waiting for him. The street was buzzing with people going in and out of the nearby clubs, so I quickly got into the vehicle to avoid causing more traffic.As soon as I fastened my seatbelt, I found exactly what I had expected—Lucius was in a foul mood and started driving without even greeting me.“What are you wearing on your head?” he asked.I touched my head, confused by his question, and felt the plastic crown that Jenna had put on me at some point during the night. I took it off and examined it in my hands.“It was my bachelorette party. Jenna crowned me,” I explained with a small smile, amused by how cheap the plastic felt.“A bachelorette party at a club? With those guys?” he snapped.I turned to Lucius, trying to understand his expression. It was one of the most irrational I’d seen from him—his irritation didn’t make sense.“What guys?” I asked, genuinely confused.“The ones in the photo your friend sent me,” he replied col

Chapter 98

The truth was, Lucius had described himself perfectly. That was a big part of the image I had of him. I also thought about the good things he had, but no words came out of my mouth. He noticed and let out a low chuckle. We had arrived at my apartment, and he was about to park at the entrance.“Wouldn’t you rather use my parking spot? Or… do you want to come up to my place?” I offered, trying to smooth things over.He thought about it for a few seconds before driving into the underground parking lot. I used the remote I kept in my purse to open the gate, and a few minutes later, we were entering my apartment.I stood awkwardly by the door, holding my keys, unsure of what to say. It occurred to me to offer him food, so I headed straight to the kitchen.“Do you want something to drink? Or eat? I’m starving, and I have a ton of instant ramen,” I said, already setting a pot on the stove.Lucius sat in the armchair silently, as if he were debating what to say. I abandoned the pot and ap

Chapter 99

I hadn’t been able to sleep or eat due to nerves. But the lack of sleep or food was well hidden under professional makeup and a dress like this one. Or at least that’s what Jenna kept telling me.“Oh my God! You look stunning! Like something out of a magazine!” she gushed as she adjusted the train of my wedding dress. “Look at yourself in the mirror!”Today was my wedding day. Finally, I was going to marry Lucius in a one-of-a-kind contract. I had been getting ready since early morning for the ceremony, here in this hotel room, along with a couple of stylists, a photographer, and Jenna.I took a deep breath before looking at my full bridal look in the floor-length mirror behind me. Once I felt ready, I turned around to take a good look, and I was left speechless at how beautiful the dress was.The reflection showed me in a mermaid-cut gown covered in divine lace with embroidered flowers and pearls. The dress fit my body like a corset, and the semi-sheer long sleeves, along with my

Chapter 100

However, by the time we signed our names in the registry, those playful smiles had to come to an end. The officiant then asked us to kiss, and we did.It was probably the most chaste kiss we’d ever shared in our relationship. As we parted and turned to face our guests, I couldn’t help but notice the bitter expressions on some of my guests’ faces and the stunned looks on most of the Browns.We had done it. Lucius and I had defied all odds and gotten married.-The nerves should have calmed by now, but they hadn’t. The hard part was supposed to be over, yet as we waited to be announced at the reception hall inside the hotel, I still felt anxious.“What did the floor ever do to you for you to stomp on it so viciously?” Lucius asked, casually munching on grapes as if nothing were out of the ordinary, as if this little waiting room for the newlyweds was a spa.“Are you serious? I’ve felt like throwing up since this morning,” I complained.“Why? Did you eat too much last night?”“Pre
