"James…" Amyra mumbled, her feet moving along with her curiosity as her eyes followed the man she once recognised as her fiance.No, she was not wrong. It was him. She couldn't help but keep walking towards the crowd.In the middle of the couple's dancing, what was he doing?'It's…' there was the couple. She saw James with a woman, his hands were wrapped around her waist like a leech as he kept her body quite close to his. They were so lost in each other, dancing like there was no tomorrow.But how was it possible even? James said he loved her and even in future he would only love her then why was he dancing with a woman at the party as if they were a couple? James has always been caring and a good boyfriend but tonight, what colour he was showing... Amyra couldn't believe her eyes. Certainly, something hit her head. What has the world known about her? She was curious to know what Mr Bryant did so people didn't talk about her. The world couldn't be bought nor her close people, it w
Droplets of rain dribbled on the street from the sky, clouds were still rumbling, and there were not many people around to be seen.In the rain, her clothes were drenching wet when she was sauntering on the road as she had nowhere to go. Well, it had happened to her before too but at that time she at least was not so heartbroken. Her high stilettos were in one hand while she was glancing at the sky with a sad smile.She didn't know how far she had come, she had been running and running and then she came to stop herself as she couldn't run anymore. "Fool, ain't I? Since I was young, I have always been made a fool. I always thought no, why would the people I trust make a fool out of me but every time… every time I was wrong. Someone framed me up and I had to find out that my sc*mbag fiancé cheated on me with my friend. O, Lord!" Amyra had no reminiscing about how loud she was before whenever she became frustrated but for sure she was the loudest this time. Her heart was hurting and he
"Mr Bryant, something… something happened." Ezra was short of breathing, he ran here as fast as he could. Xavier just put on his wedding suit, he was all ready."What's wrong?" Swivelling around he asked so in a relaxed tone. Ezra looked so freaked out, he sauntered forward and confessed, "Miss… Miss Cassidy is missing.""What?" Both Xavier and Jacob were astonished. Jacob just came back to check on Xavier to see if he was ready but as he heard Ezra, he was super surprised. To give in to the fact that she ran away from the wedding…"Kim said Miss Cassidy told her that she wanted to get some fresh air so Kim and everyone left the room. But for nearly thirty minutes passed, she didn't open the door. When Kim went inside, she… ""She what?" Xavier asked so in a stiff tone.Ezra gobbled and countered in a haste, "She found Miss Cassidy gone.""Rubbish. Didn't I tell you to strengthen the security? How can she escape then?""We are searching for her. I…"Ezra stopped talking as Xavier rai
"Boss, your bride is hiding here." One of Xavier's men showed him a tab where he could see a location. Seeing it the corners of his lips curled into a smile. "My little bride is quite smart I see…"Everybody looked surprised as they heard him. He didn't seem to be angry at all unlike sometimes before he saw her, his face was all in five shades of a beast. 'Where are they going all of a sudden?' Amyra saw all the guards heading to different directions. She had been hiding in a corner for quite a while but the guards were strictly guarding the way.Strange! They were no longer doing it now. A golden opportunity for her escape!Even thinking of it gave her a happy feeling. Waiting for them to clear the road, she watched them from her hiding spot and then she looked around. 'Anyway, it's a golden chance for me. I can just leave now. Huhu!'Thinking so she walked towards the door, pretending to stay as calm as she could.Amyra successfully escaped the guards. She ran out of the main doo
The main door was slowly opening and her heart commenced beating faster, she had been grasping onto the wedding bouquet tightly with both her hands as she took a deep, trying to lessen her nervousness.As the door opened, everybody's eyes went to the bride. Looking up, her eyes fixated straight to her groom. Xavier was standing at the right of the altar and glancing at her.Amyra looked down and unhurriedly started walking. This was giving her a different feeling, past ones. She imagined this with James before, their wedding day was also fixed. She imagined walking to the altar for him, she thought it before but now… when she was walking on the altar with her wedding bouquet in her hand her eyes caught on the front seats where unfamiliar people were sitting. For a moment she saw her parents sitting on the chairs. They were looking at her and smiling, Amyra also smiled at them. Gradually, tears were falling down her eyes and she stopped walking. How could she be happy? She thought on
“Kim? Kim?” Xavier called her name in a super disgruntled tone twice.Kim hurriedly ran into his room as fast as she could, pausing for a moment as she panted. Xavier never liked late ones so people knew the rules here, they wouldn’t be late if they loved their lives.“Yes, Mr Bryant?”Seeing Kim he ordered her in a stiff tone, “Bring me green tea.”“Eh? At this time?”“Why? Can’t I drink it now? Do I need to have a specific time for that?”Kim quickly bowed her head and in a frightened tone of voice uttered, “No, I didn’t mean that. I wanted to sa…”Xavier didn’t wait for her to finish her line, instead, to shut her up he hit his strong hand on the table and Kim understood it. Walking out of the room she dabbed her chest, she was merely holding onto her breath. It almost freaked her out. Nobody wants to get under his wrath.As Kim left, Xavier in his study room loosened his necktie irritatedly, then taking it off he started unbuttoning his shirt while murmuring angrily, “That woman
"Where am I going?" The make-up artist just did her make-up when Amyra peeked at Xavier who was sitting on the chair and had his eyes closed."To meet my family." He responded to her."Ohh." Letting out a sigh she looked calm as he answered her. But then she abruptly stood up, "You said your family? Wait, you mean we are going to..."Xavier opened his eyes and glimpsed at her, "Right." She bit her lips and tried staying calm. She read about his family members before but suddenly hearing that she was going to meet them Amyra got apprehensive. It was his family after all. She never met them before. Who knew what was awaiting her?Thinking that she still had time as she wanted to run to her room to review, he held her hand. "We will be late if we don't leave now.""But..."Xavier's sharp gaze cut her petition off.Letting out a sigh she stared down, "Fine. Let's go."In the car Amyra had only been looking at the street from the car window, it was such a mesmerising view. She always like
After dinner, Amyra was sent to a room. They told her she was going to stay here tonight. 'I am so tired. Let's take a bath first then go to sleep.'Amyra was taking a bath in the shower. The hot water poured on her soft body, she felt so nice. She started humming a song in the shower but since it was soundproof, no sound could be heard from outside the bathroom.**"Tell the finance department to take care of it, I will look at the final proposal once I'm back in the office.""Ok, Mr Bryant."Putting his phone in his pocket after talking to Jacob, Xavier looked at his wristwatch. Everyone was gone to their rooms by now since it was getting quite late.'Where did this woman go? Maybe in the room or....' Sigh!Walking into his room Xavier slowly unbuttoned his sleeves, taking off his shirt he put it on the couch. Taking a shower before sleeping was always a must for him, he could never fall asleep without it. On his pants, Xavier sauntered towards the bathroom.Coming into his room
