Bridgette's POV"Sweetheart, what do you think about this?" Margaret's voice cut through my train of thoughts and I looked at the iPad she held that had different wedding decoration ideas on the screen."They're all beautiful. Besides, it's your wedding. It will be cruel for me to choose for you." I replied with a smile."Have you spoken to the planner?" I asked and she nodded."She gave me these pictures to pick from since I didn't know what exactly I wanted," Margaret replied and I could see a hint of sadness on her face."Look, Mom, it's your special day. I understand that you didn't have the opportunity to experience all this in your first marriage, but this is nature giving you another chance at it, and this time around, I want you not to hold back for any reason whatsoever." I prodded."I mean, if you can defile your daughter for this man then you must really want this." She let out a chuckle at my words."Give it your all. No holding back." I leaned in and placed my forehead on

Bridgette's POV "You look so beautiful in your dress. You made a beautiful bride." I remarked as I stood before my mom, Margaret who was dressed and ready to be called to walk into the wedding hall."And you, my daughter, you are glowing in that dress. I bet you will look even more stunning than I do when it's time." She said with a smile and I nodded to that. Romance was the last thing on my mind. I want to climb up the ladder of success so high that I will be untouchable. Only then will I consider romance. But I couldn't tell her that. Otherwise, she would go livid or become sober. It was her big day, I didn't want to do any of the above so I just bobbed my head with a smile. We could hear the guests clatter at the other side of the door. "I guess the hall is filled to its brim." Margaret voiced her anxiety indirectly. I could see the worry on her face."No need to worry, it's mostly people from work. Aaron has few friends and you have a husband who is obsessed with you. He woul

Rhysand’s POVI lifted my eyes and there she was. Damn it, she was early.There went my plan of humiliating her, and she was even dressed up real good, as usual, always dressing to kill with those really nice figures of hers…“Well, you’re lucky this time,” I said to myself, giving a wicked smirk.“You’ll fall for it someday,” I said, as I sat in my office, looking at her walking into the room for the client briefing through the see-through glass door.Everyone was seated round the desk, papers, pencils, name it, pens. “Good morning all,” she greeted, surprisingly polite and handling the meeting. She spoke fiercely and kept a bright smile while at it.It was almost exciting to watch—brilliant as she was, I couldn’t expect anything less.“Isn’t that right, Mr Rhys?” Her voice brought me back to reality as she asked a question.“Yes, of course,” I responded, adjusting my black tie as I sat up properly, even though I hadn’t heard a word she had said.The meeting was over, and the client

Bridgette ’s POVI walked into the office and saw that he was sweating and his hands were shaking. It was very clear that he wasn’t comfortable. To top it all, he was in a serious confrontation with this lady.“What was going on?” I thought.The atmosphere was tense and he clearly couldn’t speak well. His breathing had become irregular, like he was struggling to draw one breath after another.I saw sadness and disappointment in his eyes as he spoke to the lady. It wasn’t my place to interrupt, but he clearly couldn’t keep it together.I quickly walked over to the table and dropped the files on it. Then I slowly went to his side, and his eyes couldn’t hide his vibrating hands any longer as he began pacing."Are you okay?""Get that woman out of my office," he was hyperventilating already, his breathing irregular as his chest did the dramatic rise and fall.Without thinking, I hugged him, he looked pitiful.I was a little scared he was going to turn down my help, but he didn’t. He opene

Rhysand's POV I'd been feeling some kind of way ever since Bridgette butted in the other time and saved me from Sandra. And I had been avoiding her as well. I did so well avoiding her in the house, ditching breakfast and dinner and at work as well by sending my secretary to relay messages and retrieve documents from her.It was humiliating to face her again after she saw that side of me. But at the same time, it seemed like I was rude and ungrateful after what she did.I decided, after so much war within myself that I was going to thank her for that day and get over with it.And so at the office that day, I waited until it was lunch break before making my way to her office, but I was told that she stepped out. I followed with the hope that I was going to catch up to her before I missed her.I thought I'd missed her when I got to the entrance door until I heard someone shouting by the parking lot.I followed the sound and saw a man yanking at Bridgette so hard I thought for a moment
