All Chapters of A Night to forever : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

•CHAPTER ONE•A wedding to undo.. Frozen in shock, I felt my eyes turning on their own with my breath caught in my throat. The room's warmth were no where to be found and all it was replaced with were the icy chills that seeped mercilessly into my bones.Could anything be more shattering and nightmarish than stumbling upon a shocking truth exactly three days to your wedding?..Just when the wedding you've been dreaming of is less than 72 hours away!!!!!!My hands quivered as I stared at the lines in the letter I was holding.‘Since we couldn't afford to pay our debts, we've agreed to your alternative proposal – Give out our only daughter's hand in marriage to you. However, we need to deceive her into thinking she's marrying your son. She'ld never consent to marry someone of your age sir. I know you have no son but getting pictures of someone young and handsome will do. All we have to do is declare his false trip and convince her that he'll be coming home on the agreed wedding day’T

•CHAPTER THREE•Fiercely determined.. For the first time since morning, I turned on my phone, falling heavily on my bed to release my tears as I got to my room.Everything had happened so fast..So damn fast.Losing my marriage and virginity within twenty four hours was something I wouldn't have believed if I was told a day before..But then, it's all for good right?..“Adeline, you can't do this..” Mum walked in and i sighed.“I don't want to disrespect you mum, please leave” I muttered from where I was laid while the phone began beeping repeatedly.Annoying notifications…. Well I expected them anyway.“You are not leaving this house, are you?” her voice portrayed both fear and worry.I scoffed, sitting up. “Are you seriously asking me that?” I demanded bluntly.“Adele, your brother isn't in town and you know it. How do you expect us to be fine without having any of our children around? Consider my feelings please” mum pleaded. She couldn't dare scold me for what I did ’cause

5…Two-edged sword's stab “And what gives you the impression that only your dad has the same eye and hair colour as you, in this world!”That, with a cold voice and then a stern look was literally how Sarah reacted to my son's statement. At that same moment, the decoration workers inside her office rushed out immediately, leaving the office.Who can stand the wild Sarah Donalds?..She glared dangerously at Reid, making the little boy grab a handful of my cloth while trying to hold me tight in fright.My heart was still racing hard and my head was aching badly due to Mr. Arrogant sudden denial but …!How was I even supposed to affirm Reid's words of being his son when all I'm saying seems so strange to Mr arrogant?..When I have no evidence to back up all I knew about that night..?And in fact, Sarah's glares and cruel reactions?..Damn!.“You'll have to give him time” I told myself, feeling myself shivering slightly like I'd caught a cold flu.“No, Sarah, you don't talk to a little

7..Mum, are we in trouble?.. After so many attempts to convince Reid, he finally agreed to go shopping and enjoy the rest of his birth-day hours..Nanny Precious did most of the job while I sat in a corner, sipping a cup of drink for a very long while with my mind reeling with different thoughts.The worst thing was that I had no one to talk to nor get some advisory words from. I hadn't communicated with my family since I left also, so I was just alone.“I'm so tired” Reid yawned, hugging me from behind as I drove home.“We're almost home, okay?” I spoke to pretend like I wasn't deep in thoughts.“If dad was here, he'll do the driving while I sleep on your lap” he muttered, yawning again.I sighed, tightening my grip around the steering wheel.Reid talks about his father was getting too much these days and it was bothersome, especially now that his father was about to have his own family without any memory of us..“Even if he won't accept me, at least, he should accept Reid" I'd m

Chapter 9 In-between the web I didn’t want to open the door. My hands trembled as I stared at it, the weight of my breathing filling the room. Alex being here didn’t make sense. He was supposed to be living his perfect life, far away from us. So why now? Precious stood behind me, clutching Reid, who had woken up, his small arms wrapped tightly around her neck. “Mum, who’s there?” he whispered, his voice barely audible but sharp enough to pierce my heart. I didn’t answer. My mind raced with possibilities, none of them good. If Alex was here, it wasn’t a coincidence. He had no idea where we were. At least, he shouldn’t have. Another knock, harder this time, echoed through the room. “Adeline, I know you’re in there.” His voice made my chest tighten. How long had it been since I’d heard it? Too long, yet not long enough. I swallowed the lump in my throat and gestured for Precious to stay back. “Mum—” “It’s fine,” I cut Reid off, though it was a lie. Nothing about this was
