Semua Bab Marry me: Bab 21 - Bab 30

I turned the shower knob counterclockwise and the little strings of warm water drizzling from the showerhead ceased to exist. The unsettling feeling in my stomach increased as I padded out of the bathroom with a fluffy just-laundered towel wrapped around my body and a smaller one around my head. I strolled into the hotel suite and shuddered a little at the drastic temperature change even though it was nothing I couldn't handle. Kate was right in the middle of the hotel room when I walked out. Her arms were folded across her chest, her eyebrow was cocked high, and her gaze was unmoving from me. She wasn't there when I went to have a shower is my immediate guess was that she walked in while I was in the bathroom.I eyed her posture suspiciously and gave her a look. "Hey," I said, unsure about why she was standing statuesque in the middle of the room staring lik

(Author's Note: hey. Sorry for the delay. I had to go back to school and my school's like a boarding school, you know? Some students in my school caught covid and it had to be shut down. But the main thing is that I'm back, yay!)*My facial muscles had already started to cramp from smiling too hard at well-wishers and my eardrums were wearied of hearing the same words over and over again: 'I wish you both a happy married life with a lot of children.' 'You should be the couple of the year!''Ah, you look so cute together.'The last one had me choking on air. If only cute could mean me wanting to strangle him.Crystal had become a lot more suspicious after witnessing the whole scene Mr. Asshole and I pulled off

(a/n: the last chapter was a bit too long so I divided it into two)*"What?" I repeatedHe had turned fully to me at this point and his head was slightly tilted to the right. "I believe I said that quite audibly enough for the human ear."I blinked once, then twice, and again till I lost count. My mouth opened as if it had a mind of its own, not before my brain picked up and commanded it to slam shut again. "I- I don't know what to say.""Great," he said. "Then, don't say anything at all. Are you done now?" He eyed my dumbfounded expression for a while before adding, "The plan was to have a quiet ceremony, but since you decided to experiment and called in the media, I decided that you'll bear any additional impromptu cost by having your

(a/n: I'm late on this one, I know, I know. Had a killer writer's block but here's the chapter you've all been waiting for. Woulda updated last week but I'm a chief procrastinator lol. Next chapter should come up before the end of next week. Not making any promises tho)*His hand that held my wrists above my head tightened like the jaws of a starved dog would if a bone in its mouth was to be yanked on. Beneath the hand clamping my mouth, I let out a muffled whimper. My sudden interest in his left ear dwindled and my eyes forced themselves back to his gleaming grey orbs. His head was tilted to the side and I could make out, from my point of view, that his eyebrow was arched upward. He had this strange, contorted facial expression that I had never seen on his face. It was like he thought I was some kind of psychopathic burglar or Russian spy sent to butcher him and knot his intestines into Christmas ribbons or something.However, the way his head

"Honey, I'm home!" I found Kate sitting upside down the armchair, her long legs were dangling off the top of the chair, and her brown hair was drooping, touching the floor carpet. She was watching NCIS: Los Angeles on the TV and munching on her favorite Tortilla chips and eating-I scrunched my nose. "Ice cream."She glanced up and grinned, thrusting food into her mouth. "Oh, you're here. How'd you get in?"I plopped down on the floor. "Through the door.""Established," she replied before shoving the pack of Paqui chips in front of my face. "Want some?""Wow," I drawled, taking one chip from the pack. "Katherine Alyssa Marie Montgomery is offering me her food willingly. Ithink I just saw three pigs fly." She rolled her eyes in response, before shoveling a chip into her tub of Neapolitan ice cream. I stared as she shoved the ice c
