"I see you like me, which is why I'm going to give you a gift for not scolding me."
"Are you chastising me?"
"You know how things usually go. You have a temper tantrum because a child sees an older woman like me.”
"No, not at all."
"Let us not linger on it. Please extend your hand."
"Why my hand?"
"This is your present."
“Okay.”
Violet took the woman's hand in hers, closed her eyes, and placed her palm against hers. It was a gift from her mentor Qontessah, and it helped her win over people by telling them their fortunes.
"Are you going to invest in your friend?" Violet inquired of Rita Dark.
"How did you find out? Can you tell fortunes?"
"Only a little. Now, can you answer my question?"
"That is something I intend to do. I'm just going to keep pushing it, which is why I haven't done it yet."
"It's a good thing you haven't made any investments yet."
“Why? Is there
HIS LITTLE BRIDEPROLOGUEShe couldn’t believe what she was hearing at the moment. Was this some kind of joke or what? One thing was for certain though, this man never joked. She had known him for a month and she had never seen him making a joke or smile for that matter.The other staff had given him a nickname, he was known as Mr. Cold because of the coldness he emits wherever he was. She knew that he was a good man; it was just the circumstances that turned him this way which was also one of the reasons why she developed a huge crush on the man even when she fully knew that he will never see her that way.So after all that assessment, why was he saying these words to her?“Are you joking sir?” she asked him as she staggered since she was standing on her two feet.“I am not a person who just jokes. I thought you said that you will help me when I need help. Are you turning back on your word right now?&rd
TWO YEARS LATERIt was a big day for her family; she was finally seeing the fruits of her two years of hard work.Her husband Dylan, who had graduated from university the previous year and was now working in one of her companies, Heritage Investment Firm; her beloved first daughters Anne and Leah; her godmother, Queen Tawland, was also present, as were many other distinguished guests and family.Mr. Dark, her father-in-law, was elected presidential candidate. People adored him, and as a result, he easily defeated his competitors. So today was his inauguration and first day as Dixing's president.He ran for president as an independent, but he was able to secure a seat in the Senate before running for president. Dylan squeezed her hand and smiled at her as she witnessed such a grand event."What are you thinking?" she inquired."I'm thinking about how much I love you," he said in response.“And how much do you lov
"I'm happy then," the little girl said before fleeing.With what Leah had said, Anne couldn't stop laughing."Are you seriously laughing at your mother right now?""Please accept my apologies, I couldn't take it any longer. She'd been pleading for one for months and I assumed she'd forgotten about it.""She doesn't appear to be the type to forget," she observed.Someone then approached her and informed her that the queen desired to see her, so she left Anne and went to see her."Did you call for me?""It's time for you two to leave," the queen said."Are we leaving? Where are you going?""That's another surprise I'm not going to give away. After all, you have a honeymoon to attend to," the queen winked at her.She had completely forgotten about the honeymoon."I completely forgot.""Yes, I see. In any case, the cars are already waiting for you; if you don't leave right away, you'll be late."S
The outside was more beautiful. How did they transform the entire palace into a festive atmosphere in just one night?The entire palace was decked out in red, white, and gold. There were flowers everywhere, and she could hear music somewhere. There were many cars parked in the yard, but she couldn't see anyone. She tracked Leah down to the queen's salon, where she found her waiting for her."There she is, the girl of the day," she said, widening her arms, "come here, daughter. Don't you look stunning?"She walked into her godmother's arms and held on for a while before they parted."I can tell just by looking at you that you are very aware of everything but are pretending you aren't.""Won't I ruin everything if I act as if I know? Dylan, after all, raked his brains for it.""You certainly know how to make others happy.""I'm giving it my all.""Everyone has been seated, and the only thing left for you to do is walk down the ai
They left the mansion and went to Violet's house, where Violet was overjoyed to see his mother. He left the women alone and braced himself for their departure at any moment.He gave the gown to Anne, who packed it carefully and secretly, as he doubted Violet would see it. She wasn't the type to rummage through her belongings; she couldn't do it.He went to pick up the two most important women in his life after everything was packed into the car. They proceeded to the airstrip; the plane had already been inspected, so they were free to depart.Violet slept through the journey, but it was a peaceful one. Anne and Martha couldn't stop talking about the past, and he learned a lot about this mother because of their conversations.Nia was waiting for them when they arrived. They were led to the palace, where Leah awaited them with bated breath. She was so overjoyed to see her mother that she refused to leave her embrace for a few moments.She hugged them
"You'd have no idea, Sam.""Don't call me that!" she screamed."I'm sorry, but you must understand. You changed your name and began to be deceptive. Rumors began to circulate about how you were sleeping with older men and making so much money as a result.And then you decided to move out, so we gave you permission because we thought it would be better for us, but then you showed up with a large sum of money, strange tattoos, and white hair! That caught us off guard; you were as if you weren't you at all.”“Why did you have to say those words again after you told me so many times before? Are you trying to make me angry?” she said in a low toned voice, if she were to yell again, she will draw a lot of attention."I'm sorry; I just wanted to be clear.""You did, and you did it well. I'll respond right away. Whether I joined a cult or a demonic organization, these are my personal issues, so don't try to get any clarifications.
