That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Surprise!
It's finally that moment I have been waiting for. That warm, soul-filling and heart-fluttering moment when you realize the wealthiest, drop dead gorgeous CEO Jason Black wants to spend the rest of his next six months with you. Few hours more and I would be in my white wedding dress, under the white arch surrounded by my favorite white lilies. I think the best part of it being your wedding day, is that you get a free ticket to be genuinely happy. No regrets, no negative energy, no past incidents that you have to reflect upon. Just undiluted happiness that runs deeper than what's displayed on your face. It runs deep into your veins and is circulated around your entire system. Nervous? Not at all. I wasn't tensed or having this fear of what would happen after today, I was just extremely cheerful. My wedding is set to begin by 12pm at noon. Yes, as early as that cause Jason wanted me to get enough rest before the after party which would start around 5pm and probabl
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Love Fever
CARA. “ Well, what do we do next dad?” That question was asked days ago and I recall his reply, “ We attend your sister's wedding.” Here we are. Jason made it much more easier for us. He reached out first before dad could get to him. We actually planned finding our back into her life through the apology we were going to render. “ Dear Madelyn, please accept my apology. It's from the deepest part of my heart.” “ You fool. I swear on mom's tomb, if I was Madelyn and you offered me such bullshit as an apology, I'mma stay angry with you for the rest of my life. That's 0.05 out of 10, Craig. Do better!” The idiot had one knee on the floor with his hand stretched. “ I even skipped this part, why are you on your knees like that? You sure should go ahead and add another ring to her finger!” Dad had placed me in charge of the apology rendering section, which is hilarious by the way, but I also cannot afford to screw it up. What I was more pissed abo
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Missing Kid Alert!
MADELYN. Sweaty palms, rising anxiety and a whole different heart beating wildly in my chest. Before arriving at the wedding ceremony, I was sure that nothing would go wrong. I had on the brightest smile, not because of the pictures to be taken for the media, but because I was genuinely happy. People might find it strange that I choose to be happy about getting married to someone who I wasn't in love with, but there was just this joy that comes with being a bride. Whether or not you are getting married to a man who is going to sign the divorce papers after six months, the excitement would still be there. My father led me down the aisle. Craig was looking superb in his tuxedo which almost stole the spotlight from the groom. Dad looked really nice in his suit, and my lips happened to be hurting from smiling too frequently and too broadly. Did I leave out my little diamonds? Not at all. They all looked stunning in their suits and gowns. Jason couldn't
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Where is Natasha?
MADELYN. We went from getting married to searching for our daughter. We called the cops and I explained everything to them. Jason has tried calling Natasha. Her phone was switched off, obviously because she knew we would have found out Chloe was missing. “ Still switched off? Can't you reach her mom?” The hall was empty, everyone had gone home after searching for Chloe for the past one hour. It was just Jason, grandma and my family. I was totally unrecognizable. Red puffy eyes, with a ruined makeover and a supposed white gown that had dirt all over it. “ It's not connecting. I don't know why.” “ Natasha and her mom are in this together. If not, why would her number not go through at the same time that her daughter's is switched off?” " Don't say that, Madelyn. We don't know for a fact that Chloe was taken by Natasha or her mom. You just don't say certain things without having proof." “ We don't know? Oh, I guess you see
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Xavier??
MADELYN. “ Where is Natasha?”A question I have asked for the tenth thousandth time without getting the response I wanted to hear. “ She's on a plane at this moment, to C. What part of what I said don't you understand? Cause I have been repeating it.” Jason, my fed up husband had since collapsed on her armchair. The cops had called several times within the few minutes we were here, to remind us not to take matters into our own hands. “ Why isn't your number connecting? And why is her phone switched off? Why is she in a haste to leave the country?” Everything makes sense. The connection between it all makes sense. But, my husband was too blind too see through this lady's pretense. “ She has a flat battery. She left immediately cause she was heartbroken to see Jason get married to you. Does that answer all your questions? Can't you see we have no hand in whatever crime you are accusing us of.” I wasn't satisfied. It was al
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Making Madelyn Pay
XAVIER. It's Friday already. I had since cancelled all appointments for that day. I was going to pay my dear friend a visit at her wedding. I didn't get any IV card, but I might as well just invite myself. As for Cara, I was going to give her a little time to breathe properly. Can't afford her passing out during one of our makeout sessions. Not like her life meant anything to her father. Adrian was naturally greedy. He wasn't bothered about anyone but his self. Whatever I chose to do with his daughters was purely my business, and not his. As long as I place a huge wad of notes in his palm, all sins and atrocities would be forgiven and forgotten. I have never seen a man so greedy to acquire more fame and power, that he goes as far as selling his daughters out against their will. I have always sat and wondered how poor Evelyn managed to put up with him. It's such a pity she isn't here to see me do as I like to her favourite child. The poor lady got run
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Declaring War
CARA. My jaw dropped when I saw Nicholas stroll in with Chloe. Fingers entwined, they walked slowly towards us. Madelyn and Jason have been gone for a while now. Jason's grandma sat with the other kids, sobbing and praying that Chloe be found. Her prayers have been answered. But I think she needed to pray no one gets hurt today, cause Nicholas wouldn't be here to just congratulate the new couple. “ Cara? What's wrong?”No one had seen them yet. I pointed in their direction, and grandma went hysterical and began screaming. The kids ran to their sister, while Xavier just kept walking. “ Nich.. Xavier, it's good to see you again. It's been ages since we last saw you.” His cover was almost blown. The old lady was still within reach, we can't afford to make little mistakes. “ CEO Adrian. I see you all came for Madelyn's wedding. Speaking of Madelyn, where's she? And is the party over already? Such a shame, I and Chloe were in a haste to get back to the ve
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Married On Papers.
MADELYN He's hurting me.With my back slammed hard to the wall and his hand wrapped around my wrist possessively. The grip around it tightened with every breath that he took. Soon, a red like mark would form around my wrists. “ You are hurting me, Jas!” “ I don't fucking care! Now, you listen to me, I might look cool and all gentle, but if I see Xavier anywhere around you again, I'd be sure to break every bone in his body while you sit on a god-damned chair and watch me do it.” “ Why are you being so protective? I'm not your wife! In front of the media, yes, but back here, I'm not.” I talked some sense into that possessive brain of his, and his grip loosened. Yeah right, that's how you tame a man who feels he has the right to own you simply because you are married on papers. He takes two steps back. I meet his gaze, and the moment I do, my mouth gets dry. He's concentrating on me, and proba
