CHAPTER 41
IRIS LOU POV
Time passed, days passed and the day came when Cleopard and I were together, in the days that have passed with Cleopard, I feel that I am not comfortable with him, because he is very clingy and as if all my movements are being watch by him but I just let him.
I was just sitting in front of a huge mirror as I watched my own face, and there were three make up artists surrounding me while they were doing their job, putting make up on me.
“Miss Iris, are you all right?” Artemis asked me one of my make up artists who is a Filipino. That’s when I noticed that I was really stupid in the mirror.
“Ah y-yeah.” Out of shock, that was the only answer I had to her question.
“Why do I seem to see in your face that you are not happy?” She asked and we looked at each other in the mirror.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Yes, I thought so, I was the only one who paid attention.” Sunny said who’s fixing my hair.
“Stop whatever else you’re noticing, and let’s hurry because Miss Iris will be late for the wedding.” Laira said. So I breathed a sigh of relief because I didn’t know what to answer them, they noticed that I couldn’t paint my face because I felt bad like my stomach was going to turn over because I felt like I was nauseous but I avoided doing anything because they haven’t finished what they’re doing to my face.
Damn I feel so bad I don’t know what’s happening to me now, I’m dizzy and it looks like I’m going to vomit, why now?
“That’s it, you can put on your gown, Miss Iris.” Sunny said that’s why I was forced to smile in the mirror while looking at them before getting up and walking slowly to the bed because my clothes were there.
Earlier when we went, I was almost out of balance because I didn’t stop myself from making a scene in the room. I took off the bathrobe I was wearing so I was wearing a brown tube and just my underwear, this is where I got naked because we are all women here and besides I don’t want to go to the bathroom because I might get weak.
“Let us help you Ms.” They said and they came to the gown made by Ms. Kristen’s Champagne wedding gown made me so beautiful. They helped me until I was able to wear the off shoulder gown so my whiteness was literally visible as well as my collar bone, it was bonded and the style of my hair in the back was like a rose and there was a little hair on the side of my head. They also helped me put on my heels and then they also put on a necklace with a heart shape, it’s just right and not too exposed. Cleopard himself gave it to me when we were at Venice Place and it was night when we floated the lanterns, I don’t know if I can say it was romantic or not but I know for him it was the most romantic thing that happened to his life while with me
“By the way, Ms. Iris, you’re the most innocent woman I’ve ever seen wearing a gown in my entire life. That’s why our boss really loved you.” Laira said that’s why I looked at her.
“Which boss are you talking about?” I asked her wondering, I saw how she was stunned and swallowed and wide-eyed at Sunny and Artemis.
“Ah, she means Ms. Iris is the boss, cleopard.” Artemis said with a smile so I just nodded. I just got closer to the mirror and looked at my own reflection and I can say that I look like a young woman who never gave birth to a child because of the childlike look on my face and the milky look my complexion.
“Be careful what you say Laira! You almost hurt the boss!” I heard Artemis whispering to Laira and I couldn’t understand the rest of what they said.
“What time is it?” I asked them while still watching myself in the mirror and they were just behind me.
“Around 12:30 PM that’s Ms. Iris,” Artemis answered while looking at her watch on her left hand.
“You can get off and get in the car because at 1:00 O’clock PM your wedding will start.” She said with a meaningful smile on her lips and that’s what I didn’t know.
“Then can you help me on the stairs and I might slip on the top of the gown I’m wearing.” I laughed and told them that’s why artemis and sunny quickly went to my side while laira opened the bedroom door before we started walking.
When we left the room, laira immediately closed the room and she went behind me as if she was fixing my gown in the back while we started walking in the hallway of the devinson mansion. We arrived at the stairs and Sunny and Artemis were supporting me like they were afraid I would fall because of the seriousness on their faces I just shook my head as we went down the stairs.
When we got down, they were still by my side until we got out of the main door of the mansion and there was a white car in front of the mansion and there was still a flower in front of the car. What I’m wondering is why did my car turn white in the accident? as far as I know, the car that Cleopatra and I chose to drive to Villa Eve was black.
“Isn’t my car a black car? Why do I see a white car in front of me now?” I asked while my eyes were still on the car and I also saw the person who was going to drive the car get out of the driver’s seat and what surprised me even more was that the driver was not familiar to me.
“Ah Ms. Iris because the black car had a problem so boss Cleopard replaced it immediately.” I heard Sunny’s answer and she was still a little nervous when she said the words she answered.
“Did the driver of that car also get in trouble and now the driver in front that I see now is not familiar to me?” I asked them.
“Ah yes Ms. Iris, they have an emergency so another driver will take you to Villa Eve.” Sunny said so I didn’t do anything but nodded and walked to the car. When I got to the front of the car, the driver immediately opened the door for me before I got in, they also adjusted my gown to get into the car before they closed the door and the driver also turned around and started driving the car out of subdivision of the mansion until we got out and were in the middle of the road.
I was just looking outside until I noticed that we were passing by a wrong road to villa eve, so I turned to the driver and saw that he was wearing a half mask, while his nose and mouth were covered I was about to speak when suddenly there was smoke that spread inside the car, I can’t breathe because of the smoke smell.
“D-damn what’s happening?” I said weakly and coughed as I slowly closed my eyes.
“I put her to sleep first and when we get there I’ll make sure she wakes up without a single scar.” It was the last thing I heard before I passed out.
SOMEONE’S POV
“I put her to sleep first and when we get there I’ll make sure she wakes up without a single scar.” I said to the earpiece in my ear.
“Just make sure Lucas because if I see any scars on her, you and I will both be buried alive if that happens.” He reminded.
“Dexter, just relax, don’t worry, I’ll take care of Rhys’ only princess.” I said laughing.
“Then hurry up because Eliot is about to get bored waiting for his bride and now Rhys is looking at me very badly, he just needs to bury me alive so hurry up because this one is also a psychopath. ” I heard what he said so I shook my head.
“Yes, we’ve been there for about 10 minutes in front of the church. I almost flew the car just to rate it because my baby also waiting for me.” I answered him.
Before removing the earpiece from my ear and placing it on the dashboard of the car before focusing on driving. Time passed and we arrived in front of the church and knew that Ms. Iris that’s why I got out of the car before walking into the church and I saw the entire Ephraim family and the Hamilton family as well as the woman I love was also there.
When I entered, I signaled that the bride was here, I immediately approached my baby sunny and immediately robbed her of a kiss. Sunny is among the ones assigned earlier to be a make up artist for Ms. Iris earlier and we secretly changed all the bodyguards in the entire devinson mansion because we know that the devinson family is already at Villa Eve and we know that the devinson family has nothing to do with the sin of their son Cleopard, I saw that they are also here laira and artemis.
artemis is dexter’s girlfriend while laira is the girlfriend of Marco who is a friend of ours. I also noticed Rhys who was looking at his beloved woman and none other than his daughter Anastasia and Analine who is the woman he is obsessed with.
