Maxwell nodded. "It is a big gap. But why does it matter? When we finally get married, we will combine both our earnings and it won't matter who makes what."

He said it so casually that it threw both of them off completely. Married? Did he just say married? This man who made three hundred thousand a year was standing here talking about marrying Natasha like it was already decided. Like it was just a matter of time. Like the millions she made every month were already half his in his mind.

    After leaving Tristan behind in the hallway, Maxwell and Natasha joined the rest of the guests outside in the courtyard for the cocktail hour. It was cooling down outside, and a jazz band was playing quietly in the background.Maxwell went to the bar and came back a minute later with two drinks—a whiskey for himself and a glass of champagne for Natasha."Here," he said, handing it to her.Natasha's eyes widened slightly when she realized that he had gotten her a drink without her having to ask. The fact that he thought of doing this for her was heartwarming, and Natasha couldn't help blushing.She took a long sip and finally relaxed. "I needed this. Thank you.""Your sister and her husband are different," Maxwell said, taking a sip of his own drink.He had wanted to say they were good people, but realized it would be rude to say something like that. Saying it out loud would automatically imply that the rest of her relatives weren't good people.Natasha gave a real, tired smile. "They

    Natasha crossed her arms. "I know. But knowing him, I highly doubt it. At this point, I think I need to just go ahead and get a restraining order."Maxwell looked at Karina and Leo, a bit amused by how casually they were insulting one of their groomsmen. Although he deserved it because he had a pathetic character but still it was surprising. "You two don't seem to like Tristan that much, huh?"Could he really blame them? Maxwell had come here to simply be Natasha's fake boyfriend and he had no issues with this Tristan person. He didn't know him, neither did he want to. But the moment he actually interacted with him, Maxwell realized who he was and it was hard to not dislike someone like him. Karina’s face twisted with pure disgust. "I can't stand him. He’s creepy, he's arrogant, and he treats people like things he can just buy. I didn't even want him at the wedding party, but Mom threw a massive fit about it." She rolled her eyes. "Mom is absolutely fond of him. She thinks the sun sh

    Usually, right after the ceremony, the guests are herded toward the open bar for cocktail hour. But Natasha didn't lead Maxwell toward the drinks. Instead, she pulled him against the flow of the crowd, heading toward a set of heavy doors near the back of the venue.A man wearing a headset and holding a clipboard stood in front of the doors. He saw Natasha and gave a quick nod, and opened them.They stepped into a well-lit private holding room.In the center of the room, Karina was holding up the heavy layers of her white dress, laughing breathlessly as her new husband tried to help her adjust the train.Karina looked up, saw Natasha, and her face lit up. She dropped the dress completely and rushed forward, throwing her arms around her older sister.“I'm finally married, can you believe it?” “Yes I can, and I'm so happy for you and Leo.” Natasha laughed, hugging her back tightly. "You didn't trip. You look beautiful.""Thank you sis. But I was so nervous," Karina laughed, pulling bac

    Tristan finally stood up, however he gave Maxwell a murderous look before focusing to the altar.At the back of the hall, the big doors opened.Karina, the bride, appeared first in a cloud of white, looking nervous but happy. The room seemed to hold its breath. Cameras started clicking, and Patricia pressed a hand to her chest.Maxwell looked past the bride for a second and saw Natasha.She was standing right behind her sister, fixing the veil one last time. She looked focused and professional.Time passed, and the ceremony began with the usual heavy silence. The priest started talking about love and commitment, but in the second row, nobody was listening to him.Tristan was staring straight ahead, but he wasn't looking at the bride. His eyes were wide, a little too bright, like he was vibrating on a frequency only he could hear. The dismissive comments and just overall attitude from Maxwell was still eating at him, rotting his composure from the inside out.Tristan was used to being

    Maxwell looked at Patricia, then at Tristan. They were both watching him, waiting for him to look embarrassed or start making excuses. Patricia had an aloof attitude when it came to him, already satisfied with herself. Tristan was leaning back in his chair, acting like the whole thing was already decided.It was clear to see what these two were up to.They wanted him to feel small. They wanted him to look around at the expensive suits and the high-end decor and realize he didn’t belong and he definitely didn't deserve Natasha.But Maxwell just felt a bit tired of it. These two were sitting there talking about Natasha like she was a stock option or a car that needed to be parked in the right garage.And Tristan? Maxwell would be embarrassed to be like him. The fact that he was still pursuing Natasha despite knowing what her feelings for him were, was really unsettling.And then Tristan added, “I mean come on, think about it. You earn five hundred thousand a year, have some shame. You d

    "He is not family," Natasha said quietly. "He is a groomsman. He should be sitting with the wedding party.""Don't be silly. He is like a son to me." Patricia waved happily. "Tristan, dear! Come sit. There is space right here."Natasha's jaw tightened. She didn't say another word. Arguing now would only cause a scene right before her sister walked down the aisle.Tristan stepped into the family row. He kissed Patricia on the cheek. He shook Robert's hand. He greeted the grandparents warmly. He played the part of the perfect son-in-law flawlessly.And then, out of all the empty seats in the row, he walked past Patricia, past Robert, past Natasha, and sat down in the empty aisle seat directly on Maxwell's left.He crossed one leg over the other, set his champagne glass on the floor, and turned to Maxwell with a highly satisfied smile."Maxwell," Tristan said quietly, his voice low enough that the parents couldn't hear. "Looks like we are going to be sitting together for the next hour."
