As the hours drew on, Gina tried hard not to look at the pile of clothes that had accumulated over time. Instead, she focused on the pretty dresses she saw and exploring the whole mall. It was like going to a mini vacation as they continued walking, and everytime she asked Henry if he was getting tired, he only shook his head and egged her on. Deep inside her, she didn't know why he seemed so chill and calm about everything. Even the money he was spending on her didn't appear to have an effect on him, and she had mixed feelings about it.On one hand, she wanted to pay for the clothes herself knowing fully well that she now had the money to spend. But then again, why not enjoy the care and free shopping while it lasted? In less than a year, she would be back to her own devices and it would be up to her to get things for herself. So, she decided to go with the latter and enjoy the day very well. Though, she tried her best to stop Henry from buying so many things but once she tested them

The next morning, Gina woke up to the consistent ringing of her phone and she groaned aloud in wonder as the saw the clock read four a.m. Who could possibly be calling her at that time, and the thought made her angry as her head began to ache. There were few things Gina hated more than being woken up before her usual time. As the first call ended, she went back to bed and tried to ignore the thought but almost immediately, the person.started to call again and she had to force herself to turn and pick up the phone. When she opened her eyes to look at the caller ID, they nearly bulged out in surprise. Ken was calling her, and from the screen, it seemed like the third time that morning. What could he possibly what to talk to her about? Her blood began to boil as she realized that he was probably the worst person to have disturbed her at that time. As the phone continued to ring insistently, she wondered what her ex boyfriend could possibly be up to. She had spefici

As soon as they neared the event hall, Henry began to look outside discreetly to see if there was anyone he knew there. In truth, he knew more than half of them but if he had his way, he would certainly not be caught talking to them. The only reason he was going to the function, and most of all, even taking Gina along was because he knew the family lawyer would be there. Like his parents, the man had been clamouring for him to eat married for over five years. At just thirty two, he didn't see himself as ready for marriage yet they made it such a big deal. Now, he had make the choice of tying someone else down in the marriage sham. He glanced over at Gina who appeared to be awed by the flashy display of ornaments and decorations. To tell her that she looked dazzling in what she was wearing was something that would never happen, because though it made him extremely uncomfortable, he found things easier to deal with when she was angry at him than when she wanted to

Gina went into the event hall with a lot of things on her mind. On one hand, she was still reeling from the stress Henry put her through by making her cancel her date with her best friend. Yet, there he was, wearing the suit she got for him after he admonished her on getting him anything. To even think he told her he didn't like the colour and had so many others. Then again, she could tell that there was something on his mind but she didn't want to ask because she felt there wouldn't be a response. Above all, she just wanted to have a good night that was worth her while. So when they stepped in and she began to receive looks from everyone, she couldn't help but smile. She really liked being the centre of attention in a positive way, and if this was it, then maybe she would be able to open up at the party. She smiled as Henry clasped her hand and moved forward, greeting people along the way and introducing him as his wife to anyone who listened. Deep down, she kn

The first thing Henry did when he got to his room was sigh. It had been a very long day which ended up being the opposite of the plans he made. Kicking off his shoes, he quickly ran a hot shower but it did nothing to calm his nerves and few minutes later, he stepped out still feeling restless. Just then, he heard the unmistakable padding of Gina's feet as she made her way to her room. He ignored it and looked in the mirror, trying to figure out why he suddenly felt restless. Though his wife came back late, he only started feeling like this less than an hour ago and he couldn't figure out why. Was it because he couldn't get total ownership of his father's properties? True, the negative response of the family lawyer and his mother overwhelmed him and made him mad, but he could move past it. After all, it wasn't like he didn't hold the second biggest shares in the company, and even if his father's best friend wanted to dominate them, it wouldn't be so easy. On his
