The next day, Lilian woke up later than usual. She stretched, yawned, and made her way to the living room.To her surprise, the room was empty. This was unusual; on any normal day, the living room would be bustling with activity. Her father was often lounging around, her brothers would be busy tidying up, and the general hum of the house was always present. Yet today, the place felt eerily quiet.Lilian frowned as she walked in, wondering where everyone had gone. She took a seat on the couch, absentmindedly munching on her favorite snack, a bowl of mixed nuts. She glanced around, her eyes searching for her phone.Before she could spot it, a sudden knock on the door startled her.“Who is there? The door is open,” Lilian called out, raising her voice to ensure the person heard her.The door creaked open, and to Lilian’s surprise, three groups of women stepped into the living room. She furrowed her brows, confused. None of them looked familiar.“Uhm… who are you?” Lilian asked them, her

One of the ladies knelt beside Lilian, carefully slipping on her heels, making sure the straps were perfectly adjusted.“All done!” the third lady exclaimed, her face glowing with excitement.“I think the car should be arriving soon,” the first lady said, her tone carrying a note of anticipation. Her smile mirrored the others, all of whom seemed to share in a secret that Lilian couldn’t decipher.Almost as if on cue, a car horn sounded outside.“Oh, the driver’s here now!” the third lady giggled, her voice filled with enthusiasm as she clapped her hands together.Lilian gave a faint smile, her thoughts clouded with uncertainty. She had no idea what was going on. No one had explained why she was being dressed so elegantly or why there was such an air of excitement around her. It was as though she had been dropped into the middle of a story whose beginning she had missed.The ladies gently guided her outside, their cheerful chatter buzzing around her like a swarm of bees. As they reache

Sarah turned to Austin with a frown, her arms crossed in clear irritation. “Why are you here? You should be in the car waiting with her,” she said sharply, her tone carrying the weight of disapproval.Austin’s expression hardened, and he crossed his arms in return. He wasn’t in the mood for Sarah’s usual dismissiveness. “What about the Thompsons? Why aren’t they here yet? What’s happening?” he demanded, his voice low but filled with tension.Sarah shrugged with an air of nonchalance, her calm demeanor almost mocking. “How am I supposed to know that?” she replied flatly. “They might have run into traffic on their way here or gotten delayed for some reason. It happens.” Her face showed no sign of concern, as though the entire ordeal was a minor inconvenience.Austin stared at her, his frustration mounting. “Traffic? Delayed?” he repeated, as though the words were absurd. “Sarah, it’s been over two hours! What kind of traffic causes this kind of delay?” His voice rose slightly, though he

“Why did you leave the car?” Sarah asked with a sharp frown. She looked at the reporters who had gathered around them and, with a subtle shift in demeanor, she gave them a warm smile. “Dear press, we’re all friends here. You shouldn’t cause unnecessary chaos just to get a few headlines. Please, don’t distract everyone.”The reporters paused, exchanging glances, as Sarah’s calm, authoritative tone made them reconsider their aggressive approach.“But is the wedding canceled?” one of the reporters pressed, unwilling to back down just yet.Sarah let out an exaggerated sigh. “Canceled?” she repeated, feigning confusion. “Who told you that? The wedding is still happening as planned. I’ve already spoken with the Thompsons. They’re on their way here now.”The reporters glanced at each other, their skepticism giving way to uncertainty. They had hoped for a scandal, but Sarah’s composure made them question their assumptions.“Oh, we’re sorry for the misunderstanding,” one of them apologized, ba

Lily frowned, her mind racing. “We know that’s a lie. I called Marcus’s phone, and it was switched off, along with Mrs. Thompson’s. So how did Mom reach them?” she asked, her voice tinged with frustration, confusion, and a growing sense of betrayal.Austin glanced at her, noting the sharpness in her tone. He hadn’t expected her to catch on so quickly, but now that she had, there was no way to hide the truth. He had to try to keep the situation under control, even though he didn’t have all the answers.“Just calm down, okay?” he said, his voice strained as he tried to maintain control of the conversation. It was all he could manage, but his words felt hollow against the rising tension in the air.“Calm down?” Lily’s voice rose, her tone full of disbelief. “How can I be calm in this situation? I’ve already boasted about this wedding to everyone! All of the people I invited are inside that hall right now. How am I supposed to stay calm when everything’s falling apart?” Her face twisted i

Austin noticed a woman hastily walking towards the exit and immediately stepped in her path, stopping her. “Where are all the guests?” he asked, confused and slightly alarmed. He had been outside just moments ago and hadn’t seen anyone leaving.The woman’s impatience was evident as she answered, barely sparing him a glance. “I heard there’s another event upstairs, so everyone rushed there,” she said, her tone clipped as she hurried past him, clearly heading in the same direction.Lily’s brows furrowed at this. She looked to her father for some clarity. “I thought the hall was rented just for my wedding?” she asked, her voice thick with frustration and disbelief.Before Austin could respond, Sarah walked into the hall. She froze when she saw the emptiness. “Huh? What’s going on? Why is the hall suddenly empty?” she asked, her voice rising in confusion as she looked around the space.Austin met her gaze, but said nothing, his thoughts consumed by what the woman had just told him. Sarah,

The moment she stepped inside, a wave of whispers and murmurs spread through the crowd. Every pair of eyes in the room turned toward her, their gazes lingering as they took in her presence. She could feel the weight of their attention pressing down on her, making her stomach twist with nervous energy.“Wow, who is that stunning lady?” someone whispered.“Is she single?” another voice asked.“I think that’s her boyfriend beside her,” came another hushed comment.“Oh, you’re right! They look so good together!”“A perfect match! It’s like they were made for each other.”Lilian’s fingers unconsciously tightened around Franklin’s arm. She wasn’t used to being in the spotlight, and all this attention made her uneasy. The whispers only added to her di

Tonight had been a significant moment, and he couldn’t have been happier with how things had turned out.As he sat at the table, a group of CEOs approached him, their eyes gleaming with admiration and curiosity.
