Your Lips to Mine #6: Skybound Hearts のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

I never imagined that I’d be caught in the middle of a corporate war. As a flight attendant, my life was supposed to be about long-haul flights, jetting off to new cities, and occasionally catching a glimpse of the world’s most glamorous spots. But that was before Adrian.Before I ever stepped into the world of billion-dollar deals and high-stakes business.Now, as I watched the relentless march of time closing in on us, I realized that life was no longer about long weekends or quiet nights at home. It was about survival. Survival of the company Adrian had spent his entire life building, and the survival of everything that had come to define us—our relationship, our dreams, our future.The takeover attempt, which had begun as a whisper, was now a full-blown corporate war. Adrian’s company was under attack, and the rival firm was playing dirty. They were using every possible tactic to discredit Adrian, from leaking false information to the media to launching smear campaigns targeting h

The boardroom was suffocating, the tension so thick you could almost taste it. I had never been one to shy away from high-stress situations, but this—this was something else entirely. Adrian had been working around the clock, not just for himself, but for the company he had spent years building. For the empire that had defined him for so long. And now, it was under threat, under siege by a rival company that would stop at nothing to tear it all down.I stood beside him, in the shadows of the massive, polished oak table, trying to remain calm, trying not to let the gravity of the situation consume me. I had come here as a support, someone Adrian could rely on, but what I didn’t realize was just how much this was going to demand of me. My background as a flight attendant didn’t exactly prepare me for the world of high-stakes corporate warfare. I was used to managing turbulence on planes, but this was an entirely different kind of storm.But here I was, in the eye of it, standing shoulde

We had reached a point in our lives where everything seemed to fall into place, where the chaos of the world, the pressures of business, and the uncertainties of the future no longer felt so overwhelming. Adrian and I had learned how to navigate the storm together, each of us offering our strengths, our love, and our unwavering commitment to one another. But as we sat together on the couch one evening, the soft glow of the fireplace illuminating the room, a new thought lingered in the air between us—something we hadn’t fully considered until now: starting a family.I watched Adrian as he sat across from me, his strong features softening as he looked at me with a mixture of curiosity and contemplation. We had been through so much together already, but this, this was different. This was a new chapter, one that would require more from both of us than we had ever given before. The idea of bringing a child into our lives was both exhilarating and daunting, but as I sat there with Adrian, I

It wasn’t until I held the positive pregnancy test in my hands that everything shifted. For so long, Adrian and I had lived in a whirlwind—his demanding position as the CEO of Blackwell Enterprises, my career as a flight attendant, the constant ebb and flow of responsibilities, deadlines, and travels. I suppose I always assumed we would have time to plan our wedding properly, to do it the way we wanted, but somewhere along the way, life had gotten in the way. What started as a simple promise to have an intimate ceremony had been put on hold, again and again, until it felt like something that could wait forever.But now, with a baby on the way, the sense of urgency was there. Not in a panicked way, but in the way you realize something matters deeply—more than anything else—and it’s time to make it a priority. We were preparing to become parents, to create a life together, and that meant honoring our commitment to one another in the most personal, meaningful way we could.It was Adrian’

The day has arrived. Our wedding day. The day I’ve imagined in so many different ways, but never quite like this. Every moment feels like a dream, something I’ve been waiting for my entire life. But as I stand here, looking out over the small crowd of our closest family and friends, I know this is real. This is our reality. Adrian and I, finally tying the knot, surrounded by the people who have supported us throughout our journey. The morning has been a whirlwind of activity, with the last-minute preparations coming together as if by magic. The sounds of laughter, the soft hum of music in the background, and the gentle rush of excitement in the air make everything feel so surreal. But in the midst of it all, I’m calm. At peace. This is where I’m meant to be, with the man I love, about to start the rest of our lives together. I’m standing in front of the mirror, adjusting my veil, when I hear the soft knock on the door. “Isla?” Adrian’s voice is muffled through the wood, and I can f
