"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
She checked around the bed for her phone like she usually did evey morning then remembered it was still in her purse. She looked at the table where she kept it yesterday and it was still there. She got off the bed quietly, took her purse and went to open the door, she wanted to leave, she had told Amber that nothing romantic was going to happen when she came here and she wasn't planning on taking a chance with Jake looking like underwear super model; Mike Petra, walking around the same room with her.Turning the door knob, it didn't open easily like yesterday. She sighed, trying it again, she really wanted to leave before he came back even though she didn't know her way around the castle-like house. Her thought was that hopefully she would meet Felix and ask him to show her room to her."Let me help you." She heard Jake and turned from the door, looking like a teenager that was caught sneaking out. He was fully dressed now in his usual suit. She gave way for him to open the door.Wi
"Do you need me to call Brown and let him know you won't be at the studio today?" He said and she thought he carried himself with such pride.'He sounds so sure, like a phonecall can just decide everything. Does he realize that it's not just Brown but the advert team involved?' She thought in her mind but nodded anyway to see if he could actually do it. He took out his phone and placed a call to Brown immediately, putting the call on loudspeaker."Mr Topher, good morning." Brown took his legs off his desk where he sat in his office when he picked Jake's call at the first ring. Jake was not there with him but he thought he still should be in a proper sitting posture while on the phone with him."Victoria won't be coming to the studio today. She wants to be sure you are okay with it." Jake went directly to why he called."Of course, I'm okay with it." Brown immediately replied knowing there was just one Victoria registered as a model under him, the Victoria he was asked to travel and re
"Evan is here?" He asked. "Why isn't he with you, let him in." Jake said and Drew left to return with him.When Evan came in and Drew left, Jake closed his laptop to give his attention to him because he knew whenever he wanted to meet with him in person and not call, it was usually for a good reason."What is it?" Jake asked when he( Evan) was not saying anything yet. Evans didn't bother sitting down, he knew he couldn't with what he was about to tell Jake."Uhm..." He cleared his throat. "I really don't know how it happened, I made sure the area was free of any journalist yesterday..." He inhaled before he said his next words. " There are photos of you and the Mrs trending on all of social media.""What?" Jake's asked in what sounded like a whisper instead of an outburst like Evan expected but he feared this less louder expression Jake was giving."I've had my team try to curb it but it's not just blogs and media houses, individual accounts are also involved, we can't really do anyth
