21. Soraya🍒 I've been quiet lately, and I have to admit I'm enjoying them. I've got to catch up on my little blog, which I've been working on since I got into design school. I've been behind since I was getting ready for the wedding, but now that we have pushed the wedding two days back and he has someone to take care of it, I don't have to worry much about it. “ Miss, Mr. Clark is here to see you,” my assistant told me. Why is he here? I've been trying to keep this man on a short leash because of the touchy-feely thing he has going on. “ Why is he here?” I asked her, but I didn't remember that I had scheduled anything with his company. Looking uncertain, “Probably for the contract renewal.” Ah, it's that time of year when I choose whether to keep or lose some. Unfortunately, despite how well we worked on the last project, I believe this will be our last time together. “ Let him in,” I told her. There he walks in with that boyish smile and bad boy attitude to match it,

23. Soraya🍒 I stayed up working on my little fashion blog “ The Pearl Lady” all night along and now I look like a walking dead with dark circles under my eyes, eyes that could barely stay open, let's not forget how hurt my body is feeling I believe it's a way of telling me it's time to get the hell out of the hotel and go home and be comfortable. I've been here long enough and can't stay another minute now that we've got the house. I believe it's time we get it ready for the wedding before we move in. If we could make that happen today, I would be very grateful to be sleeping in my own bed and waking up in a house I truly call my own. “Ugh,” I say as I grab a hot latte to help pick me up at the coffee shop. If not, I know I won't be able to get my day started without crashing out. I made it to the office as my assistant rushed in with papers. I'm guessing, “ What is it now?” I ask her while rubbing my temple. It took her a while before she said anything, but I assumed she had

25. Soraya🍒 The closer we get, the more anxious I get and the more doubts I have. I want revenge, but is it the right way to go about it? Those questions are constantly going through my head. I concluded that I couldn't let them stop me from doing what I wanted because what Jasper and Joy did was unforgivable. After spending years helping them, I opened my home to Joy when she had nowhere else to go, and I worked myself to the bone for Jasper's company. That's how things ended. There is no way in hell that I will let them go and leave a happy life, maybe in another lifetime, but not this one. That's why I need to have this meeting, and Thane is the key to making that happen. Although I was a bit nervous going to his office, I still wanted to keep things professional, and if there were any left, the more, the better. Erik already knew I was coming. When I got off the elevator, he walked me to the office. Pushing the door open, I said, “ Good morning, thank you for making the t

27. Soraya🍒 Today was a day of surprise. When I woke up this morning, I wasn't expecting a driver to be waiting in the lobby to take me to the wedding venue. We have been here for about an hour. Sky and I got our hair and makeup done, and we even had breakfast delivered. “ Im guessing all this is because of your groom?” Sky asks with a big grin on her face. My face got hot with embarrassment. “ I think so. He only told me about the dress; everything else he kept a secret,” I told her honestly. It's true that every time I tried to bring up things about the wedding, he would shut it down at the end. I didn't know where or how he was handling everything. From the kind of service we received since we arrived at the venue, everything went perfectly. It wasn't just a spare moment but careful planning on his part, which I never got from Jasper. Once the dress was on, I stared at myself in the wall mirror to see a bride staring back at me—a beautiful one with simple makeup, a h

29. Soraya🍒 “Uhm,” I stretch my arms over my head as I roll over in my cloudy bed, feeling the other side to see if I was alone. My hands met only a cold sheet, meaning he had left a good hour ago. Swinging my legs off the bed, I showered before starting my day. I was humming a song when I came out of the shower and met a woman standing in the middle of the room holding something in her hands. “ Who are you?” I asked the woman while I watched her. “Oh, hi, I'm Linda, one of the maids around the house.” She placed the stuff in her hands on the bed. After checking them out, I saw that my clothes were there, and I wondered, “Why exactly are you in my room?” “ Mr Kline’s order was to get your clothes ready before you come down for breakfast,” She explained. That was thoughtful of him. “ Uhm, thanks,” I was still uncertain as I watched her leave the room. Once I got dressed in my light purple suit, I went downstairs to find that breakfast had already been served, and mine w
