Chapter 22: The Deal: Two Options

I wasn’t expecting it this soon. It just has been a day since I completed my task. What the rush for.

“I mean… what the sudden marriage plan. I just completed my assignment and would love to spend some time with my family.”

“I know that. That why we have plan to commence sooner not now.” Celine said smiling at me.

I look at Zoe who seem to be focus on something else. Then I look back at Mavis. “Please, do excuse us.” I said and drag Mavis along with me to my room. He obediently followed me.

“What’s all this Mavis?”

“What do you mean?”

“What with the sudden marriage plan?”

“Aren’t you happy we’re finally getting married?” he asked.

“Of course I’m but…”

“But what? You don’t want to get married to me because you are already in love with him.”

“What do you mean?”

“Oh stop with the pretence already. I saw you the other night with him.” He said and my eye widen. He saw us. Must that be why he has left? I thought.
