The Substitute Groom Chapter 8
Nolan's Pov"I thank you all for acknowledging my invitation and showing up here tonight. Today is a very special day for us and our lovely kids." He said, giving us his best smile.Here it is, the moment I've been wishing never to come! Look at him, acting like he never forced me into doing this. "Before I proceed any further, I will love to invite my beloved son. Nolan Black." He said and everyone started clapping.Beloved son my foot!The lights turned to me along with everyone gazes, I tried to put up a small smile as I made my way to the stage. Getting up to the stage, I didn't spare a glance at my so called father. He can have the moment for today, because am sure as hell not proceeding with the God forsaking wedding ceremony!"And I will also like to welcome on this stage, my soon to be daughter in law. Savannah Wesley." He said, and everyone clapped.The lights went all over to Savannah in the crowd. She was all blushing as she made her way to us. I must admit, I have never
The Substitute Groom Chapter 9
Nathan's PovI came out of my room and to the hallway. Everywhere seems so busy, the servants are running up and down with decorations. Tomorrow is actually the wedding day and mom with the hired wedding planner has been so busy after the engagement ceremony because we planned on using our house as the reception venue, since our house is large enough for such things.I should be happy for my brother, but am not because this is an arranged marriage which he isn't happy about but Savannah is. It's quite hard for me to wrap my head around everything and come up with a permanent solution to this without hurting anyone. It's at this point that I wish I could get in touch with Paisley, she always helps me out in situations like this. But I am not able to get through to her, she must be very busy to think about reaching me right now.That hurts.Speaking of which. Ever since my little argument with Nolan, we haven't really talked or seen each other and tonight is his bachelor's night. We nee

Savannah's Pov"Why did you stop?" I asked, curious."I saw you enjoying the evening, so I thought this is what you need for a moment." He said with a small smile which I returned.Nathan is such a sweet guy and that's what I love and admire about him since childhood, he know me better that I know myself. My sister is so lucky to have such a great guy like Nathan in her life, I just wish Nolan could be a bit more like him at times.I came down and walked to the back of the car, and Nathan came down too. I tried climbing onto it to sit down, but it was quite diffcult for me."Need a hand?" Nathan asked making his way to me.It will be odd for me to ask of his help, right?Before I knew what was happening, he grabbed me by my waist and helped me to seat on top of the car boot and he sat next to me. It felt kinda strange with this tingling feeling around my waist where he touched, maybe it's because Nolan and him have the same touch since they are both identical twins.I cleared my head

Nathan's PovSavannah came in from the balcony, she came to a halt when her eyes landed on me. Her eyes were filled with tears which was so confusing, why is she crying?! Why is she crying?!"What happened? Why are you crying?" I asked, making my way towards her.On getting to her, I met with a hard slap on my cheek that threw my face the other way. "What did you take me for?! Some fool?!" She yelled in tears.I am clueless on what she's talking about and why she slapped me."Answer me?!" She yelled, and threw a punch to my chest which didn't have much of an effect on me."What are you talking about?!""Do not fool me anymore, I know it's you Nathan!" She said.I am extremely stunned, how on earth did she know it was me?!"Surprised huh? You must be a fool to think I won't differentiate between you and Nolan, what I do not understand is why you did this. Why are you posing as Nolan?! You better have a good explaination for ruining my life like this!" She half yelled, still in tears.

Nolan's Pov"She knows that I am Nathan and not the man that she has loved all these years!" He blurted out.I can't believe this!How did she figure this out?!This is screwed!"You could have been there to see how hurt and betrayed she felt, and do you know how I felt at that moment?! I hated myself for putting her through that." He said, making me feel so bad inside."I really didn't mean for this to hurt her that way…""...but you did. Listen Nolan, I have managed to convince her to put up with this till you are ready to accept this and I do not know if she accepts or not. But one thing I know is that you have month, just one month to put yourself together. Because if that one month come to end, I won't care if you are ready or not because I will be done." He said, handing me the file and walked away.Fuck!How will I face Savannah now?!This is a lot harder than I imagined it.***Savannah's PovThis brightness showing up in the curtains of my eyes made me groan, I used my hand t

Nathan's Pov"Is loving someone so wrong?" She asked, making me look at her with surprised.She turned to face me, her eyes were teary and swollen red like she has been crying the whole day. She must've been crying the whole day, it make me feel all gulity and hurt because I feel like I'm the reason for this."No Savannah, loving someone isn't wrong. Rather what's wrong…is falling in love with the wrong person." I said sadly.I think that broke her more because she suddenly burst into tears, hurting me more. I couldn't stop myself from pulling her into my arms to comfort her, she accepted it and cried more. She cried on for what seemed like forever before her cries gradually died down, but she still remained in my arms till her trembling shoulders became all relaxed and her breathing became all stable like she had fallen asleep."Savannah?" I called, wanting to know if she was awake.I slightly stroke her arm to get a response, but I didn't get any. I tried pulling away and her body a

Nathan's PovWalking out of my closet looking all dressed for work, I came in front of my dressing mirror to fix my tie. Once I was done with my tie, I put on my wrist watch, then some spray. I grabbed my phone and my car keys, then made my way down stairs with my case.Making my way to the dinning, I met my lovely mom and dad sitting there enjoying their breakfast."Good morning mom." I greeted with a kiss on her forehead as usual."Thank you darling." Mom said."Good morning dad." I greeted dad who seemed busy with his newspaper as usual."You're up quite earlier than usual, why is that?" Dad asked, folding up his newspaper."Yeah, our company is having a meeting with those new investors of ours that I told you about the other day." I explained, taking a slice of bread."Oh, I see. I didn't know it would be today.""Actually, it wasn't supposed to be today. I actually scheduled it for today, I thought it would be better for the company to accept this deal soon enough before it slips
The Substitute Groom Chapter 2
Nolan's Pov Standing in front of my father's study room, I took a deep breath before I gave a knock. Just like Nathan, I really don't know why dad wants to talk to me about the fact that he had to threaten me to come back.Does he finally want to fix us?"Come in." I heard his voice."Alright, here goes nothing." I said as I made my way in.Getting in. I saw him sitting behind his desk, busy with his laptop. I took little steps towards his desk, I stopped when I'm finally in front of his desk.His study is kind of a boring sight for me. Book shelves everywhere like it's some library, plus the old books in it. The interior is also boring, I wonder how he finds peace in here apart from the air conditioner."Sit." He said, still focused on his laptop.I quietly sat down, waiting for him to finally focus on me and the reason why he called me. He finally closed his laptop, then parted ways with his reading glasses. "How have you been enjoying your life with the money you didn't earn?" H
