View MoreRHEA'S POVSome decisions made are capable of causing people happiness or sadness for a long time. But I was lucky that I made a decision that I was happy with in the end."Wow, you look so beautiful," Leah said as she walked into my room.I stood in front of the mirror, twirling in my white wedding gown. "I know, right?" I smiled. The door opened again as Anna walked in with a five-month-old baby bump and Esmeralda behind her. "Estefan won't know what hit him when he set his eyes on you," Esmeralda said with a smirk on her face.That's right, I chose to take Estefan's hand and start all over again. I didn't want to go through the pain of missing him and thinking would have happened if I had chosen to be with him which why was I chose to put my heart at risk. So far, I haven't regretted that decision and I hope I wouldn't in the future. When Estefan and I decided to start all over again, his father announced our divorce to the public which caused an uproar on social media. We kept a
RHEA'S POVI sat in front of the mirror as Kim curled my hair, letting them fall on my back in waves. She proceeded to do makeup before helping me get into a deep blue laced dress that was pencilled to my mid-thigh. Then a light blue flare net beaded with blue pearls was attached from the waist down to my feet. A set of diamond jewellery was sent with the dress which Kim helped me put on before I paired my outfit with black pumps. When Kim was done with her job, she left the room to get her pay from her employer before she left.Walking out of the room, I met Grayson waiting for me in the living room with a big smile on my face. "Wow, I'm so proud of myself." My eyebrows scrunched together at his choice of words. "Don't you mean you look beautiful?" "Yeah, that too." He shrugged," but you only look beautiful because I picked that dress and jewellery to go with it, and I also got you the best makeup artist and hairstylist, so yeah, I'm proud of myself." A sigh escaped my lips as I
ESTEFAN'S POVThe car stopped in front of Kensal Green cemetery and I stepped out with a bouquet of lilies in my hand. The bottom of my leather shoe sunk into the moist ground as I approached a familiar tomb. I stopped in front of the tomb and squatted, placing the flowers on it. With my hand, I wiped off the mud on the words engraved on it.'In loving memories of our dear sister and mother, Adina Perez,' it read. "Hi, Mom. It's me again. How have you been? You must be mad at me for not coming to visit all this while. I don't have an excuse, so I'll just apologise. I'm sorry." I sighed. "Do you remember the last time I came here? I told you I had come to London for a mission but I didn't tell you what it is because I knew you would be disappointed in me. Right now, I wished I had told you about it. Maybe you would have found a way to change my mind and make me give up that stupid plan. "The thing is, I went through with it and I'm regretting every second of it. She left me, Mom."
ESTEFAN'S POVAt the rising of the sun, we set out to leave for the Knight's house. I rode in the car with Esteban and Anna who were following behind my parent's car where Esmeralda was. Since we drove out of the hotel, Esteban kept on questioning why Rhea and I got divorced but I couldn't provide an answer. When I set out on that mission, it felt right at that moment but when someone got hurt because of it I was too ashamed to tell anyone what I did. Rhea must have told her parent what happened and I was sure they were livid. I didn't know what to expect when we arrived there. Worse, I didn't even know what to say, I was only going there because my parents wanted to mend a relationship that they didn't know how it broke in the first place.My heart thudded in my chest as the car drove into the Knight mansion. I climbed out of the car and made my way into the house behind Esteban. Each step I took was like walking on hot coal but it was too late to turn back. Whatever happened in the
ESTEFAN'S POVStepping into the room to see Rhea set to leave made me realize that there was nothing I could do to change her mind. She had made up her mind and I had no choice but to leave with it. I sighed when I glanced at the paper and pen on the table. "Can't this wait till tomorrow?" I asked.One, it was too late for her to leave. Two, I wasn't ready to sign the divorce papers. I hoped against all hope that she agreed to stay the night and end up changing her mind the next morning but all that was just my wishful thinking."No, it can't." She stood up and stretched the divorce papers and the pen to me. "Sign it." I stared into her eyes to see a sad broken girl. Did I do that to her? What could I have possibly done to her? I guess would never find out since she was leaving. My eyes moved to the papers in her hands which already has her signature on them. Not wanting to hold her back anymore, I took the papers and the pen from her. That was the only way to set her free from me
RHEA'S POVFor the first time in twenty-one years, I stepped into my father's company, Knight Tech. The building was adorned with blue ribbons, flowers and balloons. Inside the large hall rooms were many decorated chairs to contain thousands of people that would be attending the event.Knight Tech was one of the most successful technology companies in London, so it was only normal that it attracted so many people, especially when the new project was in collaboration with the Spanish King, King Estevan.Attending the Coronation was a big opportunity for my mom and Queen Carina to show me off to everyone, bringing up the fact that I was Estefan's wife and was also nominated for the writer of the year award to each person they introduced me to.As much as I wanted to stay away from them, I couldn't because that would mean going to stay with Estefan. Anna and Esteban were busy mingling with people while Esmeralda was nowhere to be found in the large crowd. Estefan's eyes were following e
ESTEFAN'S POV"You are going to get yourself drunk at this rate," Esteban cautioned as I downed my fifth cup of tequila."I don't care." I poured myself another cup but he took it from my hand when I was about to drink it. "What's your problem?""My problem is that you shouldn't get yourself drunk when you have an important event tomorrow." He narrowed his eyes at me. "Your wife is still mad at you, you don't want to add your father-in-law to the list." "Then what should I do?" I wiped my hands down my face."Talk to her." I placed his hand on my shoulder. "Drinking won't solve anything." "But she doesn't want to talk to me. She has been avoiding me like a plague." Ever since she decided on the divorce, I never got a chance to talk to her. I wanted to tell her how much I love her and that I can't live without her but I couldn't because she made herself scarce to me. Most of the time, she fell asleep in Esmeralda's room and I have to go pick her up from there."Are you just going to
RHEA'S POVThat Friday morning, the Royal family left the palace to the airport to board the private plane to London for the launching ceremony that was taking place in my dad's company the following day, but Esmeralda was going to be staying back to resume the first semester in college.Everyone seems excited about the ceremony except me because the end of the launching ceremony marks the end of my title as a princess of Spain. I tried to make it easy for myself by avoiding Estefan throughout the week. I knew he was looking for a way to talk to me and I had a feeling he wanted to tell me the truth about why he married me. Hearing the truth from him would break my heart more, so I wanted to avoid it as much as I could.We all stepped into the plane and I took a seat that was farther from everyone else. I noticed Estefan approaching me, so I put on my headphones to drown out whatever he was going to say, that way he would leave me alone.In two hours, we landed in London and lodged in
ESTEFAN'S POVEven after Rhea's actions toward me earlier, I still wanted to do something for her. When my parent arrived, I informed my mom about the surprise party which she agreed to. No matter how much she pushed me away, I would do my best to get her to forgive me. "Estefan, Esteban, come with me," Dad called as he walked out of the living room.Esteban and I glanced at each other before standing on our feet to follow him. We stood behind him in silence inside the elevator before glancing at each other. I asked Esteban what was going on using my eyes and he replied by shaking his head.The elevator stopped on the fifth floor and we stepped out, moving toward my dad's office. We walked into the office and my dad sat on his desk while we took the seat opposite him."I received a call from Mr Knight today about the ongoing project," Dad said as he leaned into his seat.I nodded for him to continue, but in my mind, I was praying that he wouldn't say the project was completed because
