The long hall of Saint Patrick’s Catholic Church bubbled with excitement as the couple stood at the altar, waiting for their marriage to be finalized and blessed by the priest. All roads that led to the venue had been blocked with different exotic cars of all sizes and ranges.It was indeed the talk of the town, a gathering of elites and the city’s richest people. but why wouldn’t it be so? It was the wedding of the son of the city’s most popular business man and CEO of the year. It was Jackson Gray’s son’s wedding, it was the wedding of Las Vegas’s most eligible bachelor, a title he wouldn’t be holding on to anymore in a few hours.The church had been beautified with balloons and ribbons of different colors, there were stunning looks and outfits in the building. Both those who had come to celebrate with them and their rivals who had come to envy and find something to gossip aboutStephen Gray and Jenny Bricks stood at the altar facing each other, the young CEO was dressed smartly in
“Jenny, wait!!” Stephen yelled and turned to go after her, but two steps forward, he paused and turned back to Anastasia. It was useless going after her, there was nothing she would want to hear from him at this moment and moreover Anastasia needed him more. He already knew the repercussions of his actions.Mr. and Mrs. Gray approached them immediately, accompanied by Jenny’s mother, who was a divorcee and famous model. It was rumored that she had made her wealth from the divorce with her wealthy husband. The thought of it had made Stephen consider a Prenup last week. As much as he loved his bride, he didn’t want to risk losing half of his wealth to her through cunning means.“What the hell is going on here?” Mrs. Gray yelled.“Yeah, can someone tell me what the actual fuck is going on here?” Miss Isabella uttered.“Calm down mom, let me explain…” Stephen uttered as he walked back to where Anna stood.“No you keep quiet and let me handle this, it's obvious you have lost your mind. Ho
The family had gathered in their large spacious living room and everyone was seated silently waiting for the meeting to begin. Well, some were crying, some were murmuring and others were still in shock.Mrs. Gray was the first to break the silence and she began by questioning the presence of Anna in the room. The young simple girl from downtown was trying to not get bewildered by the massive living room she had found herself. Like she noticed the first time, this family loved nature, the designs in the sitting room told it all.Aside from being very spacious, they had very costly pieces of nature hanging at every corner of the room. The chandelier was designed like a branch of a tree. There were tiny sculptures of Viking ships on some counters and flower vases on several others.“I understand bringing her home, but why into our house and why in this meeting with us? You should have left her outside in the compound, we would feel much safer that way than in a private family meeting.” M
“Shame on you for saying such a thing!! Is this what you think of everyone? You think everyone wants your money?? If this is what being rich is all about, then I am very glad to be poor. If being rich means that you believe everyone wants your money, if that is the case, I do not want to be rich. You think your money can solve everything in the world? You think everything can be bought with money? I am carrying a human in me and all you can think to offer is money… Does this baby even matter to you? Sorry to say this Mr. Jackson Gray, but your money is not the solution to my problem… If I wanted your money, I would file a case against you and I wouldn’t even need the city’s best lawyer to win that case, I would only need one with a good heart.” Anna blurted in anger, she was so pissed by his question that she wouldn’t hold herself back anymore.“Hey, you wretched thing, don’t you dare talk to Mr. Gray in that manner? Do you realize he can buy your entire existence ten times over?” Je
“I knew it!! This is what you wanted all along, that is why you are playing saint. You want to be a baby mama for a billionaire, huh? You want to be a part of this family, at the end it all falls down to money. You want to be collecting child support, don’t you? Keeping this child will make you mother of the first heir and puts you in a position to get wealth someday when your son takes over, that is if you do have a boy. Admit it that you are a greedy bitch, forget all this self-righteous show that you have put up here today, forget all this drama and admit that you are playing the long term game.” Jenny accused her.“You keep mentioning the word Billionaire like you are obsessed with it, what if those are your true intentions? Only a thief knows another thief? So if you think I am one, it is probably because you are too. So tell me Jane or whatever you call yourself, are you marrying Stephen here because he is a billionaire?” Anna slowly dished out the violence.“Way to go, sister
There was silence between the two of them as he drove her home, she had actually asked to go on her own but he had adamantly refused and insisted he took her home himself. With all the drama that had occurred today, he didn’t trust anyone else to do the job. Anna fixed her gaze outside the window and admired the view, or maybe she was just avoiding eye contact with him.“I am sorry.” Stephen finally broke the silence in a calm reserved voice.“Huh?” Anna muttered and turned to face him like she had not heard him the first time. She however put up a convincing face of confusion to support her reaction.“I said I am sorry, for the way my parents treated you back there, it wasn’t right.” He said.Anna sighed, the only thing not right was him forcefully sticking his dick into her body, but she didn’t say that, it was just the way she felt. Of course, she had still not let go of that night even after two months, she was yet to heal from it and this baby bump was one of the reasons why it w
Anna’s heart skipped when she saw her mother standing in front of the house, she knew she must have been waiting for, she had left without informing anyone, she just left a note saying she would be back but she never specified where she was going or what she was going to do. She has been depressed these past few days so her mother might have thought that she would try and end her own life; that is why she had left the no-so reassuring letter before leaving.Stephen was the first to get out of the car and he walked to the other side and opened the door for Anna. Of course she had tried to open it on her own but the billionaire CEO had locked it on purpose, he didn’t think it was lady-like to open the door for yourself and so he wouldn’t give her the chance to embarrass them both.Anna stepped out of the car and rolled her eyes at him as she realized what he had done, but he just smiled back at her, looking pleased with himself and his action.“Sorry sweetheart, but I wasn’t going to le
Stephen arrived at home and headed straight to his room to try and avoid any discussions with other members of the family. He knew for a fact that they were mad at him, even his father who had supported his decision early today was angry with him for embarrassing the family today at the church. Anna might have been the one to disrupt the wedding but it was all because of him, he put the plan in motion back at that hotel when he forced himself on her.Stephen got to his room and noticed that the door was half-open, someone was either in there or had gone in there not long ago. He wondered who would be in his room as the family knew that he was out with one of the cars, he slowly pushed the door completely open and walked in.Sitting inside there was Jenny; of course, he knew he was going to have a talk with her tonight, he just didn’t expect it this soon. She was the most disappointed of them all today, it was supposed to be her big day but he ruined it, so he did understand her pain.
