"Sweetie, are you okay," Martha asked, her voice laced with concern as she looked at Charlotte.They were currently on their way to the Brooks Mansion as Sebastian had kept his promise and requested for her to be discharged."Yeah, I'm fine mom," Charlotte answered and continued looking out the window. The truth was that she was not fine. She hadn't seen Sebastian after he stormed out of the room in anger. He made sure to come into the room after she had fallen asleep and he left the hospital before she woke up.Charlotte sighed. She was such a big fool for bringing up the fact that they were going to go their separate ways after a year. She herself didn't want that to happen as she wanted to make the relationship work so why did she bring up the topic.She was ready to apologize to Sebastian but it seemed that he wasn't ready to talk to her as he refused to answer her calls. They were getting married in less than twenty four hours. Love or no love, it wasn't right to start a new r
Charlotte knew that Victoria and Martha planning her wedding meant that it would be a grand event but nothing prepared her for this big of an event. There were hundreds of guests sitting in the hall and all of them were significant people. Charlotte recognized a few businessmen and some political figures seated. She was not surprised to see so many important people even though she didn’t recognize half of them. After all, this was according to the media, the biggest wedding of the century. The two most powerful families’ children were getting married. Sebastian’s and Charlotte's marriage was not beneficial to them alone but also to their families. The Geranos and Brooks shares skyrocketed drastically, making both their shares the highest in the market. However, Charlotte had no business with any of that as what she was dealing with was much more important. She looked around the wedding hall and awed in wonder at the decorations. Her mother and mother in law had put a lot of ef
Sebastian glanced at the woman who was fast asleep. So many thoughts were swirling in his head as he looked at her. His eyes went down to the ring on her finger; the one he had put on her when she was about to become his wife. A lot of people were happy about Charlotte getting married to him. If only they knew what she was signing up for. A chuckle escaped from his lips at the thought of him finally being able to get revenge on Charlotte. He had waited too long and the day had finally arrived.His phone beeped and this broke his focus on Charlotte. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Amy."I'm already on the island…. When are you getting here?" The message read.A frown appeared on Sebastian's face as he read the message. He had clearly told Amy to wait for three days before coming to the island but she didn't listen to him."I told you to wait for three days… What are you doing there?" Sebastian texted back.Amy read the message immediately and the three dots on the
"I need to take a long shower," Sebastian said and without waiting for a response from Amy, he entered the mansion and headed straight to his room. Sebastian knew that Amy could come into the room and so, he made sure the door was locked before entering the bathroom. The warm water immediately calmed his nerves and soothed his skin. He closed his eyes to enjoy the warm feeling over his body but as soon as he did, Charlotte's face at his betrayal popped up into his mind and this made him disturbed. He opened his eyes sharply. Why was he thinking about that woman?He had thought he would be happy once he revealed the truth to her but he wasn't as happy as he expected to be. A part of him was happy but the greater part of him wasn't and this didn't sit too well with him. He felt like he had betrayed Charlotte. Well he had but the point of the whole betrayal was to revel in her humiliation and not to feel bad. Sebastian realized that Charlotte had made him a bit soft and he was not g
After making sure that the door was locked so Sebastian wouldn't barge in, Charlotte fell to the ground and broke down in tears once again. The sight of Amy dressed in that nightgown haunted her and shattered her heart in pieces. Sebastian was supposed to be with her but he was going to be in the arms of another woman. 'Fuck you Sebastian,' Charlotte cursed in frustration. 'Fuck you!' She said it over and over again. Meanwhile, outside the room, Amy was also crying her eyes out to Sebastian. "See. What. I. Have. To. Deal. With. Everyday!" She whined in between sobs. "The whole world thinks of Charlotte as an angel who can do no wrong but when she's with me, she turns into the devil that she is."Sebastian was starting to get tired of Amy's complaints. She had already established the fact that Charlotte was not the angel everyone thought she was. There was no need to repeat it."Amy," he called, interrupting her. "Yes Sebastian," Amy answered."It's been a long day for both of us.
"Sebastian, wake up!" Amy yelled as she couldn't take what Charlotte was doing any longer."Let me sleep Charlotte," Sebastian mumbled in his sleep. "Sebastian it's not Charlotte but Amy," yelled Amy as she advanced forward and started tapping him on the leg. Sebastian finally opened his eyes and turned to look at who was disturbing his sleep. "Amy?" He called in confusion. What was she doing here and why did she look so angry? "Sebastian, what's going on?" Amy asked in a shaky voice. Sebastian turned back to Charlotte and realized how close they were. His eyes went wide with shock and he jerked up from the bed.He turned to look at Charlotte who had a bored expression on her face. How? When? Why was he in her arms?Seeing that none of them were ready to speak, Charlotte decided to say something to break the silence in the room."Amy, why did you barge into our room? You ruin the romantic moment between Sebastian and I.""No Amy, don't listen to her. There was nothing romantic goi
Amy was expecting to see Sebastian walk through the door but she was shocked to see Charlotte walk through the door instead.She couldn't go out as there were guards around and it would be a huge problem if they saw her in the house."Where is Sebastian?!" Amy asked sharply.Charlotte, who was planning on walking past Amy, stopped and looked at her "How do you expect me to know?" She fired back."You went after him and you're back. So where is he?" Amy probed."I'm done talking to you," Charlotte said and walked away from Amy."Don't you dare walk away from me," Amy called after her. She proceeded to follow her but stopped when the front door opened and Sebastian walked in.His clothes were soaked and his whole body was dripping with water."Sebastian!" Amy exclaimed as she ran to him. "What happened to you?" She asked, her voice filled with concern."I don't want to talk about it," Sebastian said as he proceeded to the dining table where Charlotte was having her lunch.She glanced at
"Doctor, how is she doing?" Sebastian asked as the doctor came out of his room. "Her physical condition is stable now but I can't say the same about her mental condition sir.""What do you mean?" Sebastian asked."Well sir, you say you found her submerged in water. Until she wakes up sir, we cannot ascertain whether she fell in the water or whether she tried to kill herself," the doctor explained."But I must say this sir, I examined her body for any bruising especially on her head and I found none which means she tried to kill herself and she'll keep on trying to do so if she doesn't get therapy.""You can go now doctor," Sebastian said."Yes sir," the doctor bowed and left."Oh and doctor, if you tell anyone about what happened here, I promise you that I'll come after you and your entire family," Sebastian threatened.The doctor wiped his forehead nervously. "I promise sir, no one will find out about this," he promised and quickly left. Sebastian opened the door and walked into the
