44. Where is Martin?.
My head was aching from lack of sleep and while thinking about last night. I think I was too stubborn yesterday. I shouldn't have done that. I should have let my desire take control over me. I closed my eyes and was regretting the things I did when the sound of alarm jolted me and brought me back to reality.
I sighed and turned it off. I sat on the bed and closed my eyes again. But the sadness in Martin's eyes flashed again. He has been sad even before I kissed him and the behavior change and flirting with Ralph that's a whole different story. What's going on with him?.Why is the sad?. These two questions are frustrating and wrecking my heart at the same. I came out of my thoughts when I heard a door knock. Damn it, who is it that's knocking on the door early morning. I got up from the bed with a frustrated face and went towards the door. I opened the door and found the housemaid holding a tray in her hands.
"Good morning, young master." She greetedRelated chapters
Married To My Rival. 45. Is Celine sad?(part-1).
The next morning I woke up after feeling myself relaxed. I turned towards my other side and I didn't find Celine. I sat back on the bed and took my phone. When I checked the time it was almost 10. I sat back with a jolt and went inside the bathroom to get freshen up. What the hell, the time's already 10 and no one bothered to wake me, even this Celine didn't wake me. I got fresh up in no time and went downstairs. I found mum and dad in the living room and there's no sign of Celine in the hall. I went towards the dining room and she wasn't there either. The maid brought the coffee and I went towards the living room holding the coffee mug."Good morning, Eve." Dad greeted with a big smile. "Morning, dear." Mum greeted right after dad. "Morning," I said greeted back with a smile, and sat on the couch. "Why didn't you guys wake me up?" I said while making myself comfortable on the couch. "You seemed tired, these days. So

I rolled my eyes in reply and took a towel. I went into the bathroom and came out after taking shower. After few minutes, Celine went inside the bathroom to take shower. I went towards my wardrobe and found after finding for almost 20 minutes I took out a knitted navy blue round neck half sleeve dress that came up to my knee and had a flowy at the end. I straightened my hair and curled them at the end and left it. I took out diamond earrings that had a matching slim single bangle which I wore to my left hand. I took out my white stilettos and wore them. Did a light make-up and ready to go. The time I got ready, I saw Celine coming out of the bathroom. She went straight towards the wardrobe and took out a sleeveless dress. "Li. Take another one that had at least half sleeves." I suggested. "Why? jealous that your in-laws will think of me as a bride if they see me in this?" She said with a smirk on her face. "You really wish,

I wiped the tears that formed in my eyes and took a long breath. I kept the plastered smile before opening the door. I saw dad in front of me. "Yeah, dad?" I asked. "Everything is ready for the dinner. We need to get there, now." Dad replied with a smile. "Okkay. Give me a minute." I said with a nod and closed the door. I went into the bathroom and splashed water on my face thinking it would help me clear the thoughts in my head. It didn't, the moment I closed my eyes, the scenes of yesterday's pop up and the tears that he shred. I dried my face with the towel, throwing those thoughts into the back of my head, and came out of the room. I saw dad waiting for me. "Come on," Dad said with a smile and we both started walking out. "It would be perfect if Martin was there. Don't know where he left. He didn't even tell anything to any of us." Dad said with a bit low tone and shook his head sideways.

I walked towards the reception. While I was intended to walk as fast as I can, to others it resembles as if some dog or hitman is behind me. I walked at my maximum fast pace and soon reached the entrance. I looked at the reception with happiness in my eyes.....but I couldn't find Martin there. God, damn it, where is he?. I was walking towards the reception while roaming my eyes around the hall searching for that one bloody asshole. I will literally beat the shit out of him, if I see him, now. The anger for his actions, the pain of making him cry, and the curiosity to see him. All these feelings are fucking up my brain. God, why the hell am I the one is having all these problems?. I hate my life sometimes. I reached the reception and took a long breath to control my curiosity before speaking. "Excuse me," I said while tapping my finger on the reception. "Hello, Mr. Harrison." the receptionist greeted with a smile. "Hello

I woke with my gentle pats on my hair. It felt so good, it's been a really long time since I woke up without my alarm buzzing or Celine screaming. I opened my eyes with a smile on my face and found Celine, caressing my hair, softly."Good morning, princess." She said in a soft tone."Morning, what are you doing?" I asked still with a sleepy tone."Waking you up, gently. Don't you like it?" She asked while playing with a strand of my hair."Yes, but what got into you?." I asked while stretching my body."Nothing. Why do you ask?" She replied and ended with a soft chuckle."Because it's so unlike you. Am I in a dream?. I must be in one." I said while poking her cheeks."What are you doing?" She asked while looking at the hand that's poking her cheeks."Testing whether I'm in a dream or not," I said and poked her again. She smiled making my finger poke into her dimple."
Married To My Rival. 50. I will never leave you(part-1).
The morning, I woke up when I heard the alarm buzzing like a roaster. I groaned in annoyance with the sound of that stupid alarm clock. I didn't even know who kept it and I'm pretty sure it wasn't me. I opened my eyes slowly and grabbed the phone from the bedside table, I cut off the alarm clock and kept it on the table again. Likewise, my hand felt numb like every other day, but this time that wasn't paining, I was happy to hold him. I can feel my hand still around his shoulder and his hand on my bare chest. I turned my head towards him and saw found him sleeping peacefully. I also found a blanket on us. He still sleeps like a puppy. Oh, now he's smiling. Must be having a good dream. That's when the reality struck. The conversation we had last night, the kiss we had, and the conversation before and after that. I really want him to be happy like he deserved. I can and will do anything for him to be happy. I pulled him closer towards him and he

I closed the door and walked towards the couch carrying the wedding outfits in my hands. "This one's for the best man and this one's for the groom," I said while placing them on the couch beside Martin. I saw Martin looking at the tuxedo and examining it. His smile started growing as the minute of him seeing the tuxedo started increasing. "Martin, the breakfast is in front of you not beside you. Don't look at that tux with that hunger in your eyes." I said after snapping my fingers and making him come back to reality. "Don't talk nonsense. I'm thinking of you in the tux. You would look great." Martin replied right after I said. "You always had a thing for tuxedos, isn't it?" I asked while sitting on the armrest beside him. "No. I always had a thing for you in the tuxedos." Martin said with a smile while raising one of his eyebrows. "Yeah, yeah. But as I saw both the outfits side by side, the colors for t

I went towards the door and opened it and saw Dad and Ron. They both came in and were shocked to see Martin inside my room. "Martin, when did you come?" Dad asked with a surprised tone. "Last night, Master. I'm sorry for not informing you about my sudden disappearance. I will make sure this won't happen again." Martin apologized with a bow. "It's fine, son. Explain it to your dad, he was worried sick about you." Dad said in reply. "I'm sorry, dad. I should have informed you at least." Martin apologized again. "Promise me this won't happen in the future," Ron asked. "Promise," Martin replied immediately. Ron let out a small weak smile in reply. I'm sure he's going to answer hundreds of questions once he reaches home. "Are you both ready?. We need to get down." Dad broke the silence. "Yeah, just about to leave," I replied. "We both will be at the aisle, then," Dad sa
