Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 47 - Reminiscing 2
Anastasia's POV I woke up to the banging sound against my door, who could it be knocking by this time? I sat up in bed lazily, checking the time. It wasn't so early after all, it was exactly 8:00 AM. I jumped out of bed and headed towards the front door half awake. “ Yes?” I swung the door open, rubbing my eyes. “ You really should learn to be security conscious,” there was no way I was mistaken Aurelia’s voice especially when she nags me. “ Aurey? What are you doing here by this time?” I was more aware now than before. “ I should be the one asking you,” she let herself in and her bodyguard followed her in as well. “ Earth to Aurey,” I waved my hand as she sat on the couch, making herself at home. “ Last time I checked, this is my apartment,” I reminded. “ I know that dummy. It's eight in the morning, what are you supposed to be doing?” She tried to jog my memory and only then did it come to me - Work. “ Shit!” I cussed as I dashed into my bedroom. How could I forget that I

Anastasia's POV I stood and watch as Aurelia’s mom cried bitterly as the priest performed the final rites of Aurelia. Everything felt surreal. It had happened too fast for anyone to understand or fully grasp. My eyes were puffy from too much crying and my body hurts from self-inflicted pain.CEO Kasper had also come for the burial though not as early as I thought he would. I watched as the priest told family and friends to have one last look at her. Everyone stepped forward and put a flower in her casket except me. I felt too guilty to, I felt too hypocritical to. I was alive and the only thing I took home was a burn but Aurelia couldn't even take anything home, not even her life. It would have been okay if she was hurt but survived at least, I would have been there to see her through.I peeped from where I stood at Aurelia’s body in the coffin, she looked so peaceful like she was sleeping. But I know that beyond that peaceful look, she wanted to live so bad. I had taken everyth
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 49 - Is it alright if we meet up?
Anastasia's POV I sat with my legs crossed as I opened the magazine that lay in front of me. I was done with my shoot but I didn't mind watching others either, though right now, I was occupied by the magazine in my hands but the persistent mutters kept interrupting the flow of things. I clenched my fist in annoyance trying to focus but it was like the more I focused, the louder the gossips and the mumbles got. “ I heard that CEO Sebastian personally came to see Anna,” the major gossip whispered to a group of jobless girls like her. Why am I not surprised that everyone is talking about it?“ No way,” some gasped in surprise.“ I was there too, it's no rumor,” one chirped in.“ And let's not forget that CEO Kasper changed most of her romantic scenes and even came here himself,” she said in pride of perceived knowledge - her nose was probably sticking out in confidence as the other girls marveled and believed every word she said. Not that her accounts weren't true
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 50 - Cake Fight
Sebastian’s POVI dabbed the napkin on my lips as I finished having breakfast. My phone beeped, it was an update of the film's progress from Director Dennis.“ Why are you smiling? You're scaring me,” Liam stared at me in horror like he had seen a ghost.“ How is my smile scary?” I squinted my eyes.“ Not your smile but the fact that you're smiling. You rarely ever smile,” he shrugged. “ What did you see on your phone that's making you smile?” He pried.“ None of your business,” I shoot at him.“ Don't tell me it's related to Anastasia?” I decided it was best not to answer. “ See! You just blushed for a second right there!” He pointed at me in what I felt was unnecessary excitement. “ Don't create a mountain out of a molehill,” I cleared my throat. He was misunderstanding this.“ But I'm right about the news being about Anastasia?” He had a confident smirk on his face.“ No,” I lied with a straight face. “ It seems that you're a little too free recently,” I said getting to my feet.“
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 51 - You Should Get Married
Sebastian’s POVIt was about an hour drive to my parents place. I had been avoiding here since I came back because I know how my parents are. “ We're home,” I announced as I walked into the mansion. My mom's frowning face met mine but it didn't last long. “ Oh, my baby,” she was about to hug me but I took a step back. “ Don't worry, I just disinfected myself before you came,” she knew what was on my mind. She pulled me into a hug and I simply went with the flow.“ I never thought you'd come home so soon,” I heard my dad's voice. He acted like I hadn't been threatened by his wife to come over.“ Someone might think I came here of my own accord. From what I remember your wife coerced me,” I smiled at dad and our silent war began.“ Your mom,” he corrected with a smile as he shifted the blame.“ She was your wife before she became my mom,” I smiled as I retorted.“ Oho, why the confidence? She might have been your mom before she became my wife,” dad dropped a counter
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 52 - You are married?
Anastasia's POV “ Can't we come with you? Pretty please, momma,” Chloe and Claude pulled at either side of my baggy trousers begging me while I stood with a pissed face. I wasn't pissed off at them, I was annoyed at the fact that this has been going on since they woke up. “ A no is a no. Besides, I'm pretty sure that your dad wouldn't want that,” talk about tactic for escape. “ Why won't you take us with you!?” Chloe cried. “ Are you ashamed of us?” Claude took me unawares with his question. “ Why would you even think of something like that?” I searched his eyes for answers. I felt a bit hurt that he felt that way.“ I didn't mean it that way but you never take us out. You keep us at home nearly always except we're going to school,” Claude sat in a corner sulking. I've never seen him sulk before, was I being too protective? “ Nobody even knows who your kids are because you rarely take us anywhere,” Chloe frowned. Maybe I was overdoing thi
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 53 - Do you love her?
A week laterSebastian’s POVI banged my head against my office desk in frustration as Liam talked away. He had been talking since the moment we got here but that was the least of my problems right now.“ Geez, if you didn't want to listen you could just have said so instead of banging your head against the poor desk,”“ My parents will kill me if they find out,” I continued to bang my head against the desk not paying an ear to a word he just said.“ What are you talking about exactly?” Liam stared at me in confusion.“ I'm referring to Anastasia. Why in the world does she have kids!???” I groaned in frustration. “ If my parents learn that she has kids, not only will she be rejected, I'll get an ear full from them,” I finally lay my head to rest instead of banging it.“ Why does it really matter? I mean, she's just supposed to be a fake isn't she?” He shrugged as he stared at me in confusion.“ You're talking like we've even told her about it yet,” I mumbled.“ I still don't get you,
Married in the Shadow of My Best Friend Chapter 54 - Change Of Plans
Two days laterSebastian’s POV “ The more I think of your idea, the more stupid it sounds,” I sighed as I stood in front of the dressing mirror as Liam helped me with my fur coat. “ You don't always have to be so blunt,” he said through grit teeth as he clenched my coat. He helped me put it on. “ Sometimes, I wonder why I ever decided to take your idea,” I complained. “ Well, you still have the chance to turn back. After all, you've been postponing this meeting for days now,” he reminded. “ And the more I postpone it, the more realization I achieve,” I spoke. “ You're such a pessimist and ingrate,” he pouted. “ But then again, I don't have much of a choice either,” I sighed. “ You've confirmed that she's not in any relationship right?” “ Yup, she's not married and nothing about her relationship life is known but from what I see, she's not in a relationship,” he confirmed to me once more. “ I don't know ab
