Mr. Smith was clearly the most excited about the wedding. He planned a very classy and grand engagement party. He also made sure not to invite too many guests as the wedding day was the real big deal and this engagement was just a teaser.Invitations were hand written by him and sent to only the really important people, i.e. the people of class. The engagement wasn’t going to be a quiet one but what made it special was that not just anyone could waltz in and claim to be a guest.Mr. Smith only sent out fifty invitations. He had asked Paul if he had people he wanted to invite but Paul said no. Celine too, but Mr. Smith had given her five invitation cards, making the number of guests to be expected Fifty-five.The day finally came and all preparations had been put to place. The Smith’s house had been converted into an event center for the night and it looked absolutely amazing.Celine was in a room, with a glam squad, they were getting her ready for her engagement party. Alexis was the

Zack had done background check on Maria and had gotten to know the places she often frequented. One of those places was the club downtown, the one where Xavier had met her after his date with Celine had gone wrong.Zack knew if he were to get to Maria, he had to find her in a secluded area and not only that, he needed her to be sober when he confronted her. That meant he had to meet her before she went inside and got drunk.The parking lot was a perfect place, Maria had a special spot set aside for her, all Zack had to do was to pretend he was a valet and that way he was able to get through to Maria.Zack was standing in place of a valet and once Maria pulled up, he watched his steps to make sure he wasn’t facing the cameras directly. Pretending to get her car keys from her, he pulled her close to him and before she could screamed he rendered her unconscious using chloroform which he had previously sprayed in a towel.He put her in the back seat of her car and then got in the drivers

They soon get to the seaside where Xavier had set aside for their date. Celine was awed by the sight at sea. It was absolutely beautiful. The excitement in her eyes were clear and Xavier was impressed with himself for being able to pull off his apology date.He led her along the way to the harbor where a beautiful ship was waiting for them. It was a big ship and was top notch. The type that would be used for cruise rides. It was big enough that parties were usually held inside of it.Xavier had gotten it for his birthday last year, he named it Millie because it looked like a Millie.He led Celine into the ship gently. He had hired people to decorate the interior of the ship to look fit for a dinner date.The interior of the ship was expensive, not like anything Celine had seen before, she was impressed by what extent Xavier had gone to make it up to her. She looked at him and gave him a smile of appreciation, he nods.He takes her to a table already set, pulls out the chair for her

Celine noticed he was lost in thoughts, she didn’t think the reason was something serious. She actually thought he enjoyed being in the back seat and being driven around by a chauffer , there are people like that. It was fine with her but why was he so lost in thoughts?“Xavier?” She calls lightly tapping his thigh to draw his attention “Are you okay?” Xavier blinks twice before answering her…. “Yes…. I mean I’m okay”His voice was shaky and Celine sensed fear in it. What was he afraid of?Celine didn’t push it though, he would probably tell her at the right time.“There’s something about me that I think you deserve to know” Xavier starts. His palms were beginning to sweat, he was nervous he didn’t know how to tell her about his dark past and highest of all, he was afraid how she was going to react. What if he says something wrong?Celine shifts to look him in the eyes, she could see that he was very nervous about telling her. She wondered what could be so bad. Seeing his behav

Celine remembered the name of the hospital on her father’s test results. It was the same one her father’s friend worked at. He was her god father, she would use that opportunity to check up on him too, killing two birds with one stone, she thought .One part of her was sad that Xavier already left, he would have offered her a free ride to the hospital but now she had to catch the bus. She shook the sadness off and headed to the bus stop.After about twenty minutes, Celine reaches the hospital. She asks of her father at the reception but the nurse on duty says there was no patient by his name in there register. Celine is confused by that but doesn’t read meaning to it instead she asks to see Dr James, her godfather.Celine goes to Dr. James’s office hoping to meet her father there but she doesn’t. She meets James in his office though.“Hi uncle James” She greets taking a sit at his desk, opposite him.“Hi Celine, it’s been a while” James responds.“Uncle James, when was the last
