Iris's p.o.v.
-----So Hunter has been deathly quiet.
And I have been biting my lips to avoid laughing at his nervousness.
Edward was driving us to the venue and it seemed like forever to Hunter.
" Edward, how much longer do we have to complete this journey?" Hunter finally asked after glancing at his watch in every five minutes interval for the past fifteen minutes.
" Am I hearing a modified adult version of ' are we there yet?' " Edward mocked and I lost it.
I laughed out so loudly that I was gasping for air.
But when I want to stop, a quick look at Hunter's face sends me reeling in laughter once more.
" Stop..... Stop... I can't..." I managed to blurt in between my laughter.
" Iris you're insane" I heard Hunter's voice but it seems to be laced with amuseme

Hunter's p.o.v." Mr McConnell?" A plump lady calls as soon as she steps out of the room." Yes?" I stood to my feet." Mr Reid would see you now. He's out the balcony" she smiles briefly before walking away.The event was currently taking place downstairs and after searching for Mr Reid for over an hour I decided to give him a call.He detailed that he was on the second floor, room fifty two C in the hallway.I just realized this building was also a luxury guest inn." Thank goodness" I smiled to myself in apprehension of speaking with Mr Reid and proceeded to locate his room.I've been harboring thoughts about revealing my intentions to Mr Reid and it's high time that I did.Everything else is currently a secondary discussion. Once he's done saying what he has in store, I'll

Third person p.o.v.It was a few minutes to three am but she hadn't winked a slumber, she looked to her side to ensure her baby was tucked in safe and sound.She sighed softly and turned to her side to try catching some sleep.After a few minutes of squeezing her eyes to no avail, she had to figure out what was wrong with her.No..She knew exactly what's wrong. Ever since Hunter had come home looking so sad and crestfallen, she hadn't felt so comfortable.Her little thought told her that it had something to do with Mr Reid and the deal, probably Mr Reid hadn't agreed with the terms.If that were to be the case then Hunter is really doomed, he can't get any backing or financial support to pay off the debts.He was left to the fate of some drug Lord's somewhere around the world.But th

Hunter's p.o.v.-------I've always learnt to detest Monday morning's but today's adrenaline rush and anticipation almost killed me.Right now it's a few minutes passed six pm and I have never been happier with an early close of work.Why?Well here's why. On my way to the office this morning Mr Reid gave me a phone call saying he had important information for me.And the rest seems like history.Currently I was in my car, driving down to the restaurant he'd chosen for the meeting and my heart is pounding so loudly in my ears.Okay, I know I said I'd given up on everything but for some reason I still feel the need to save my life.Survival instincts right?Why the hell is the journey taking so long?I had to

Iris's p.o.v.————— After a while of thinking and consideration, Claudette and I decided to make the proposal party a small one. I personally wanted it smaller than that, possibly just two people and a ring but Claudette does know how to throw a fit. So we chose his office as the venue and invited a few people asides from his employees. Edward, Guillermo, Claudette, Mrs Reid and her children ( well except Meredith and of course Michelle ) and some business partners he was particularly fond of. Mrs Reid took it as a point of duty to invite some of Meredith's friends. That also, I saw no use for.Nine o'clock pm sharp. It's time for Michelle to walk into her surprise." Hu

Hunter's p.o.v.It's tomorrow.Finally, the wedding is tomorrow and I've been feeling jiggly since morning.If jiggly is indeed a word.I've gotten a suit picked out with the help of Guillermo and Michelle says she's already got her gown too.The venue was being set up by Claudette and Jenny while Cheryn took charge of the caterers.Edward handling the convoys and my family and friends are flying in today.I'm honestly feeling like a girl who's about to have her first kiss.Fucking excited!.Nothing can honestly dampen my mood right now.I'm on my way home and a little early from work cause I promised Louisa that I'd take her out and that's exactly what I'm gonna do.Because I seriously doubt if Michelle would allow me to hang out with s

Iris's p.o.v." Mommy am I going to be okay?" Louisa asks as I tuck her in.We had finally arrived home after a brief, suspiciously quiet, tiring drive.Seriously, the silence made the journey longer than it should." Yes baby but the doctor said for you to be okay, all you have to do is sleep, eat, draw and sleep some more" I answered with a smile." Yaaaay" she cheered but it ached my heart when I heard how weak it sounded." Go to sleep cupcake" I whispered and placed a soft kiss on her forehead." Mmmmm" she moaned softly and slowly shut her eyes in an attempt to fall asleep.I noticed her little winks and sighs and unknowingly, a chuckle escaped my lips and I began using my thumb to trace her plump cheek outline." Mommy, what about daddy?" Huh!?

Iris's p.o.v.-----The tunes for Unconditionally by Katy Perry was being played so softly by the DJ and it's lull filled the entire hall.The room was slightly beginning to get filled up by business associates, family members and even the press.Clicks from cameras and chatters from people engaged in discussions were prominent in the enclosed space, filling the area with excitement and buzz.I stood at the entrance and surveyed the black and blue themed hall in awe and gloom. Claudette has really got a top notch style.I had already handed Louie to Jenny so she could prepare to be the 'flower girl' and now I regret it cause I have no company.I engaged in a little chat with Guillermo a few minutes ago before I entered the hall but he had to leave so he can go get the priest.No sign of the bride and groo

Sooooo...... Welcome to bullied series, part 2. Thanks for tapping on this book. With much hope and anticipation, I'm here to say it has officially begun 😁 I wanted to use blues music for this entire book but unfortunately the past was filled with more love than hate 😒😒 so the book goes on music-less but if you feel you have any song that suits the chapter please endeavor to comment. I know I said I'll wait till I have at least nineteen chapters up but I swear I tried!! I was just too impatient... 😔 It's finally completed and if you're reading this, then this book is undergoing editing or has already been edited. Please don't hesitate to point out errors and indicate suggestions. Usual words. Please don't steal my work, blah blah blah.... I love you all for reading.
