Chapter 8

Eloise had been staring at the ceiling for a while now, twirling the ends of her hair around her fingers. She wore a goofy smile, unable to shake the overwhelming excitement bubbling inside her."I'm getting married to Tanner? I'm really getting married!" she kept whispering to the air, as if trying to convince herself that it wasn't a dream.She rolled around on her bed, kicking her feet in sheer delight. "Mrs. Aldama... Mrs. Eloise Aldama... Shit, that sounds so damn good!"Her imagination began to run wild. She could already picture Tanner standing at the altar, looking as handsome and serious as ever while she walked toward him in a magnificent white wedding gown.She knew she would end up getting hurt when their two-year arrangement came to an end and they had to go their separate ways. But that was still a long way off. For now, she wanted to make the most of every second she got to spend with him. She would worry about the heartbreak when the time came. What mattered was that,

Chapter 9

Eloise slammed the plate of peeled grapes onto the bedside table for Tanner to eat."You're finishing all of those," she warned, glaring at him before returning to the sofa where she'd been sitting earlier.Tanner tried to reach for the plate, but his injured leg made it difficult for him to move properly. "I can't reach it," he complained, stretching his arm toward the grapes.Annoyed, Eloise got to her feet again. She picked up the plate and placed it directly on Tanner's thigh. In her irritation, she set it down a little too forcefully, causing Tanner to groan in pain."Ouch, fuck!" he grunted, his face contorting.Eloise's eyes widened, and she hurriedly snatched the plate off his thigh, suddenly panicking. "S-Sorry! I didn't... I didn't mean to!""Can't you be gentle with me, Eloise?" Tanner snapped irritably. The pain was unmistakable in his eyes as he glared at her."I already apologized, didn't I? It was an accident." Eloise bit her lip, suddenly overcome with guilt. "I'll fee

Eloise leaned against the wall across from Tanner's room, crossing her arms over her chest as she tried to shake off her irritation. Unfortunately, she could still hear the nurse's giggly laughter coming from inside."Eloise?"She turned toward the voice and was slightly surprised to see a familiar face."Ranier," she greeted him.He smiled and immediately walked over to her. "Is this why you couldn't make it to our plans? Who's sick? A family member?"Eloise glanced at Tanner's closed bedroom door and pointed toward it with her chin."What are you doing here?" she asked, deliberately shifting the conversation away from Tanner's room.Ranier smiled and lifted the paper bag he was carrying. "My sister is doing her internship here. I just brought her lunch."Eloise nodded. She remembered Ranier mentioning before that almost everyone in his family worked in the medical field.The door to Tanner's room opened, and the nurse who had been happily chatting with him moments earlier stepped ou

Chapter 11

Eloise couldn't speak right away after hearing Tanner's words. Even though she knew it was all part of their arrangement, she couldn't stop herself from reading something more into what he'd said."I want my bride to be the most beautiful woman..."She didn't know why, but something in her chest suddenly ached."Don't worry. We'll make sure she stands out," the designer said enthusiastically, continuing to assess her from head to toe. "She has a beautiful figure. She'll be easy to dress."Scarlett smiled. "That's exactly what I want."Eloise remained silent as she stood there. She didn't join in the conversation because, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get Tanner's words out of her head.She shouldn't be thinking about them this way. She shouldn't be expecting them to mean something more. But why did it feel as though he'd meant every word?A few minutes later, the designer left with Scarlett, leaving Eloise alone in the room with Tanner.Silence suddenly settled over them.
