He was a handsome man, she had to admit. She was too angry earlier at the other restaurant where she slapped him to observe. She knew he was a good looking person from the few pictures of him she could find the night she stayed up, but looking at him now he was more than that."Satisfied?" He asked, after the waiter was back to clear the table."Yeah, it was really nice." She smiled but it occurred to her that he was asking if she was satisfied now he had drunk his wine." I didn't necessarily want you to drink it, you know what, let's forget that. Your mum, she said it wouldn't be a bad idea if we had this whole thing finalized this week, and I didn't wanna ask her but why they rush?"He didn't know how to answer her question at first but he figured that if she was ygoing to be his wife soon, whether it was an act or a real thing, she would have to know why the president was rushing all of this."In the whole of the Tn group, there has be one head, currently the head of the empire and
"It wasn't a date Amber." Victoria thought she should clarify that.She looked at the dress Jake had sent for her again. It was a dinner gown, it had a V-cut design and a silky lustre, she felt it when she touched it.There was also a pair of black shoes with a glassy heel, inside the box. Amber took them out looking at the size number written on one of them."Check if it fits you, I want to know if he somehow got the right size for you." She gave Victoria the shoes."What number is written on it?" Victoria asked collecting them."I don't see where it's written."Victoria tried them on and they fitted just perfectly. She stood and walked in them."It fits." She told Amber like she couldn't see her walking in them."Try the dress." Amber smiled excitedly."No, I'm too tired for that." Victoria was back on the bed. Taking off the black heels and putting them back in the box, Amber gave her the dress to keep too. "Maybe he's not that bad a person, like I thought.""And when did you ever
"You are still doing the advert?" Amber asked after the photoshoot. She had been in the training hall all day while her best friend was busy with her shoot."Somehow yes, but the video shoot was cancelled, it's just pictures now. You know Brown looked so angry when I was late this morning and the director too, I made him wait.""Don't look at me, it wasn't my fault, I woke you up.""I didn't say it was....""Urghh, I don't want to go in the bus with Brie and the others." Amber said when they both got to the reception and saw the bus waiting."Why?""Why? Are you seriously asking me why?""Wait, did you avoid them all day?" Victoria asked even though she thought she knew the answer to what she just asked."We could use an online map to return to the hotel?""Please Amber, let's just go with the bus.""Fine." She agreed. "Orrrrr?...." Amber said when Victoria thought she had agreed."Nope. When you say orrrr like that, I get worried.""Come on, hear me first." Amber begged."What?" "Or
"So that what?" Amber cut her again."Stop doing that, don't stop my words.""I have to, you are saying something I don't expect you to be saying.""What did I say?""I don't know, you are the one person I know that believes in love and now it's like you don't anymore, what happened?" Victoria didn't say anything after her for a while, she just pouted."So it's okay that you don't believe in love but it isn't now that I don't." She said in a sad tone."Tori." Amber called when she realized that they just had an argument for no good reason and even though they weren't mad at each other, she had just made her best friend sad. "I guess mine's okay because I always haven't believed in love but you, you are Tori, lovely Tori, who fucking loves love and it's disappointing that you don't love love anymore." She said watching Tori look at the paper in her hands like she was reading them but she obviously wasn't."I'm sorry." Amber said when Victoria wasn't still saying anything. "Tori? I sai
A day had gone by with Victoria preparing her mind for the D-Day with every passing moment. She could have sworn, back in highschool with Ken still around that her marriage was going to be special with a not so big but not so small wedding party but now she didn't mind at all.She was going to marry this billionaire and not ken but it didn't make a difference to her. She wanted to wear a long flowing White dress for her wedding in the presence of her grandma and Amber's mother but that wasn't happening,now she didn't even want her grandma to know of it. The only thing that wasn't changing was Amber's presence today, she was going to be her chief and only maid of honor. Checking how she looked in the mirror, she smiled, Amber had suggested the right dress when they went shopping yesterday. It was a simple but classy knee length white dress."You. Look. Amazing!" Amber complimented her when she came back from getting her shoes."Too amazing? Attention seeking amazing?""Nouuu, no no,
"I'm fine, I want to get married to you." She said noticing it was less sunny now than it was."You don't look convincing enough about that.""It's my first time getting married, I'm allowed to look as unconvincing and nervous as I can be." She said going back inside. When he came in, he saw that she was signing the paper. "Good, now I need you both to go out and take some pictures, there should be a photographer there. I want one of you both separately and one with you two together." He said computing some things into the computer in front of her."He should have just asked you guys to take those photos before starting the signing process." Amber said when they headed outside. "Where did he take you when you both left?""We just talked outside the door, nothing romantic Amber.""So he just tapped your shoulder and you went with him?""There's nothing romantic about that, is there?""Well...""O godddd." Victoria rolled her eyes.Jake was the first to take his picture, with his hands
The drive was quiet as the car went on a casual speed. Victoria looked out through the window and watched the city to try and act like he wasn't there, seating on the other side of the car with her. She had tried so long through their drive to overcome the temptation of looking in his direction to know if he was looking at her or looking outside the window just like her but it didn't look like the car was stopping soon.They had been driving for more than an hour now and it looked darker outside. She checked the time on her phone and it was thirty eight minutes past six. She finally didn't care and turned to look at him. He was sitting still with his eyes closed, she couldn't tell if he was sleeping because he wasn't making a noise but she was glad he couldn't see her stare at him. His lips were pressed tightly against each other as he stayed in that position with his head resting on the car's headrest. Victoria thought he looked tired but handsome still and his jaws and chin were nea
There was a painting of a horse in black and white, hanging at the head of the bed, it added a classic touch to the room because it matched the white bottom sheet and black duvet which was spread on the bed .Opening one of the doors there, she was happy to discover that it was a bathroom, but it was so spacious she stood there looking around for a moment. The tall tiled walls were shiny and light reflective, there was a round giant bathtub enough for two persons to fit in it comfortably situated in the middle of the bathroom from where she stood.There was also a shower cubicle at the left corner of the bathroom, far from the bathtub, with a translucent glass around it. She hoped there was a towel waiting on the towel rack like the hotel because she wanted to have a shower and her bag which she packed back at the hotel wasn't here yet. After she checked around she couldn't sight a rack so she looked through few of the cabinets which she could reach, she finally saw one with folded w
