Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury : Kabanata 151 - Kabanata 160

“Should I just take this all off?” Linda asked, referring to the wedding dress that now seemed horrible to her, and struggling to keep the tears that gathered in her eyes from falling.“Definitely not!” Ruby answered firmly. “We have already put a whole lot of things in place. The paparazzi we have secretly paid and invited are already there, remember?” Ruby asked, looking at Colt and Linda.They knew that Samuel’s insistence on something small and private was so that the world would not know about it. If not that Ciara had gotten herself into trouble and public scandal, no one would have known that she was Samuel’s wife, and that was the same trick Samuel wanted to use on Linda.“You are a Luscious, and we would not sit by and watch any man treat you less,” Ruby had told Linda firmly when they had revealed to her that they had paid for secret paparazzi to capture the event and post everything online.They would surprise Samuel Fury in a way that he would not like, and that would caus

Ciara could not help but wonder what made Samuel run out of the penthouse in such a rush. After he read what he read on the phone, he screamed, rushed into his bedroom, got dressed haphazardly, and dashed out of the house without saying a word to Ciara.“What could be going on?” Ciara asked, worried. She knew she wanted to be alone, to gather her thoughts together, but what could mark Samuel run out like that? She initially thought he was going to stay in the penthouse with her with the way he was going.Worried, Ciara dialed Quinton’s number; she was the only one that would tell her what was going on, even though they hadn’t spoken since the last time.Thankfully, this time around, Quinton picked.“Hello?” Quinton still sounded shaky and wary over the phone, making Ciara more worried.“Quinton, it’s Ciara,” Ciara said, feeling the need to introduce herself, because she could not understand this new attitude of Quinton after days of being her ally without even being asked.“I know it

“This cannot be happening!” Linda sobbed. “It’s all over the news now!” She cried harder.The same paparazzi that her parents had secretly hired had been the ones who published the news, even after being told to stop filming. By the time Linda got herself after being rejected, the news was all over the place. “My goodness, I was dumped at the altar!” She covered her face with her hands and cried. Her make up was smeared. She was hysterical. This was the most disgraceful thing that Linda had ever experienced. If Samuel hadn’t shown up, it would have been better, because they could have just put up a silly excuse as to why he didn’t, but now, Linda was the entire laughingstock of the country. Even pictures and videos of her fainting after Samuel said no and walked out was all over the news.Linda hid in her room and cried bitterly. She could not even bring herself to face anyone, not even her parents.Her phone rang, and Linda was surprised to see that it was Rudge that was calling he

“Let me take the call,” Samuel said firmly, stretching his hand to collect the phone from Ciara. “Let me handle it.”Ciara would have given the phone to Samuel to “handle” it like he said, but she could still vividly recall what happened the last time she had allowed Samuel to handle her business with Rudge. If he was calling again, it meant something, and for all Ciara knew, she could still have a shot at getting to know what truly happened that fateful day.“No,” Ciara said firmly also.“What?” Samuel seemed amazed by Ciara’s firm rejection. Although why he was surprised, Ciara could not tell. He should be used to her constantly doing the exact opposite of what he wanted her to do by now.“I am not letting you handle this, Samuel,” Ciara stated.The phone was still ringing.“For all you know, Ciara, this guy could just want to get money from you! He is a blackmailer without the real information you desperately want, and this is what they do,” Samuel tried to make Ciara see reasons,

There was a deafening silence after Ciara said Linda Luscious.Samuel felt as though he was hearing differently. Yes, he knew that he suspected something was off, but he had no idea, and now, he was even more confused.“Linda Luscious?” Samuel asked, wanting to be certain he was hearing rightly.“You asked who Rudge was referring to when he said ‘she’, right?” Ciara asked.Now, they were both seated on Ciara’s bed, quietly. It was the first time they would be having a conversation in this manner. All the times they had a conversation, they had always been talking in high tones, and throwing unpleasant words to each other.“Was she the same person the previous time when Rudge had contacted you and struck a deal? Samuel asked calmly. He could not even bring himself to shout. In fact, he was even struggling to ask questions that were not silly, because while they talked and he listened to Ciara, he was still trying to clear out his confusion.“Yes,” Ciara answered soberly.“How on earth d
