"And now, we acknowledge the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Vandelbirt!" the host announced when he immediately noticed us at the entrance of the hall.

The flashes from the cameras focused on Stefano and me increased when the media heard the announcement of our arrival at the venue.

My hand automatically tightened its grip on Stefano's arm as the media slowly approached us. There are a few others pushing to get closer to us faster. It was a good thing that some of Stefano's men acted immediately so no one could get close to us, but even then, they still wouldn't let go of their questions. I could hear their questions as Stefano and I walked inside.

"Mrs. Vanderbilt, who was the man you were with at the airport earlier?"

"Mr. Vandelbirt, is it true that your wife is cheating on you?"

"Are you guys getting a divorce now?

I cursed one after another in my mind when I heard their questions. I now believe that news really had wings because it spread very quickly even though they don't know the wh

    It's like they're flirting and not caring about their surroundings. I immediately took a step forward when Stefano suddenly moved his head, and before he could catch me looking at the two of them, I quickly took my eyes from their direction.I almost ran up the stairs just to get to my room, that's why when I finally got inside, I was out of breath.I rested for a few minutes before deciding to take a shower, but before that, I made sure that the door of my room was locked.While I was taking a shower, I couldn't get the woman Stefano was with out of my mind. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen her before, but I can't remember anything. It looks like she wasn't at our engagement party either, and I've never seen her before, so she's not familiar to me.Before I could think of anything, I quickly took a shower and got dressed. I chose to wear a maroon silk suit pajama. I immediately went out of the walk-in closet after I finished drying my hair, but I jumped in shock when I opened th

    I could see how Stefano was surprised by what the woman did, but that was immediately replaced by a smile as he turned to face her and hugged the woman back.I don't know why I suddenly felt pain while watching them. This is the first time I've seen Stefano this happy. During the times we were together, he was always serious, cold, and angry, that's why I can't believe what I'm witnessing right now.Before they even noticed my presence, I immediately turned around and walked towards our car. I don't know why I suddenly felt weak, especially when I had already sat down in the backseat.When our driver started driving away from the airport, even though I controlled myself not to look at Stefano, I still turned my head outside and from there, I saw the woman's hand clinging to his arm as they walked, I think, towards Stefano's car.My heart immediately beat faster, and I jumped a little when Stefano's gaze suddenly landed on the vehicle I was riding in. Even though the car was heavily ti

    Even though Stanley didn't want me to go with him to the airport because he said it was already early in the morning and I badly needed to sleep and rest, I still insisted on being with him.He had no choice but to agree to what I wanted when I preceded him into entering our car. He just shook his head while smiling as he sat down next to me.As soon as he sat down, I immediately wrapped my arms around his left arm and rested my head on his shoulder, which I used to do with him whenever we traveled together. I immediately felt comfort and peace after doing those things. We were both silent, and it seemed like he was deep in thought, just like me. The joy I was feeling because he was by my side right now was gradually replaced by sadness as we got closer and closer to the airport. My hands that were wrapped around him also tightened in the passing minutes.It's a good thing that mommy and daddy are still on a business trip right now, so the two of them and Stanley won't be able to see

    Before our tears could even flow, Stanley and I immediately looked away from each other. I just let my tears fall down from my eyes down to my cheeks so that I could at least feel a little better.Ever since we were kids, Stanley has been the one who can't be emotional between the two of us. He is always strong and ready to protect me from everything.He also always makes me stop crying and calms me down, but now, maybe because of our age, he's also becoming emotional.We were entering first year college when his entire family migrated to Canada. I will never forget that day because Mommy herself was responsible for Stanley's family suddenly deciding to move abroad.Stanley's mom - Aunt Monica, was mommy's best friend since they were kids, but because mommy was jealous of their family, she did a lot of bad things to them, especially in their businesses, and before mommy could do anything worst of the worst to them, they decided to just stay away so that there would be no more chaos be

    Before any words could come out of my mouth, Stefano angrily threw the bouquet that he was holding on the floor and turned his back on us to leave. The petals of the white roses scattered on the floor because of what he did. I was about to chase Stefano when Stanley suddenly grabbed my wrist, causing me to turn my head to look at him. I was about to struggle out of his grasp when he suddenly spoke. "Is that him?" He seriously asked while looking straight into my eyes. Even though those were the only words that came out of his mouth, I knew immediately what he meant. My only response to him was just a nod as I gave him a sad smile. I see mixed emotions in his eyes right now for me and as I looked into his eyes, I couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in my heart. Just a few seconds later, I felt him slowly release his grip from my wrist, and I took that as a chance to continue my pursuit of Stefano. I almost tripped because of the speed of my running, but before I could e
