Meanwhile, at the same gas station where Maxwell had beaten Benjamin earlier that morning...

The station was much empty compared to that morning. It was late afternoon now, the sun beginning its descent toward the horizon.

SCREECH!

A convoy of black luxury vehicles tore into the lot, disregarding all traffic laws. A sleek Mercedes led the charge, followed by a menacing white van with windows tinted darker than the abyss.

The doors flew open.

Benjamin Brin stepped out of the Mercedes. His wounds

    Tristan stood at the front of the room, microphone in hand, smiling warmly at the newlyweds.At least, that was the performance he was putting on.Because the truth? His eyes kept sliding to Table 1. To Maxwell. To the one man who had spent the entire evening existing in a way that made Tristan want to flip every table in the Grand Belmont.He hated Maxwell with all his being right now. Looking at him unbothered by all of it, acting like he belonged somewhere he clearly didn't, made Tristan hate him more with every passing second.Wasn't this Maxwell pathetic? Compared to Tristan, he was nothing but a small fry. His salary was a single drop in the ocean compared to what Tristan earned. That was the reality that annoyed Tristan so much, the fact that he just couldn't forget it.How could someone who was so clearly beneath him not realize it? Usually, in this world, the little people did not dare to challenge the people at the top. They bowed their heads, they laughed at the right jokes

    Natasha saw the look her mom had and frowned. “Mom, he is my boyfriend, and he sits where I sit,” she declared. Patricia rolled her eyes. And still didn't say anything. Tristan walked to the table just then and sat down on the empty seat near Robert and Patricia. As Patricia's future son in-law, of course he was saved a seat here. After he had witnessed Maxwell and Natasha kissing, Tristan had left, and once he was out of everyone's eye he lost it. It was safe to say that jealousy was affecting him.However, that was thirty minutes ago, and Tristan had managed to slip his arrogant mask back in place.He sat at the table with a smug, relaxed look on his face, glancing over at Maxwell and Natasha, who were quietly minding their own business. His eyes glinted with a cold hatred as he stared at Maxwell.‘Enjoy it while you can, you fraud, Tristan thought to himself. Do you really think you can just show up and steal my spotlight? I've ordered a background check on you, and by the end

    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
