Chapter 134: The Lost Groom

Arabella was wearing a simple but elegant beige off-shoulder dress. The cut embraced her curves perfectly and her flawless white collarbones were revealed clearly. She also put a mild makeup to give justice to her total peg at her best friend’s wedding.

Simple yet elegant!

“Bestie, here!” Farrah suddenly sounded in the corner near the altar.

Arabella heaved a sigh of relief seeing Farrah inside the chapel. She quickly strode forward to her and gave Farrah her dress.

“Come with me.” Farrah dragged her to the back. There's a little room situated at the back of the chapel just enough for her to give Farrah an instant makeover. She applied her just a mild makeup but it was beautifully done.

“Tadaaaah!!!!” Arabella gave her a mirror.

“Wow! Perfect! You are the best bestie. I love you.” Farrah hugged Arabella.

“Shhhh… No crying. You gonna ruin my creation.” Arabella said jokingly just to lighten up the vibe and also to ease herself after seeing Bill.

“It’s your wedding day. No crying, okay?” She added.

Farrah nodded and fixed herself not to drop a single tear.

“Bestie, are you okay? Bill is here. I’m very sorry.” Farrah forgot to mention the presence of Bill due to her excitement.

“Of course.” She answered Farrah with great approval. There’s no time for blaming. It’s her wedding day. Arabella could clearly understand it.

“You guys read…… ready?” Gab went to the back to check for them but to his surprised, he saw his angel. Farrah was wearing a laced white dress. It had a mermaid cut and a chocker top. It made her look more sophisticated. Her makeover was fabulous with a flower crown on her head. She looked like the purest angel he had seen that he could not take his eyes off his beautiful bride.

“Yes, we are very ready,” Arabella answered excitedly. She could see the love of the couple by just looking at each other. She giggled seeing them full of romance and love.

There were only 5 people in the church for the wedding. The priest, the groom, the bride, the bridesmaid, and the best man.

Then the priest arrived in a hurry and the ceremony started.

Arabella and Farrah walked on a red carpet holding hands. Arabella walked as cool as she can be. Bill and Gab were standing in front waiting for the bride to come. With Bill’s eyes pierced to hers, she tried very hard not to fall. Even her knees were getting soft, she still managed to walk gracefully and elegantly to the eyes of the crowd.

Farrah was wearing an overwhelming smile and tears. When they arrived in front, Arabella hugged Farrah, and then she hugged Gab welcoming him as the new member of their family. Bill also hugged Gab and Farrah as congratulating them in advance for a successful marriage.

After Gab took Farrah’s hand, Arabella went to the opposite seat of Bill. They were the only witness to the wedding. Sneaking at the man opposite to her, he was wearing a navy-blue suit and tie. His look was screaming of elegance and power. His demeanor is always the same.

Domineering and very intimidating!

No one would dare to sit beside him.

She smiled in an irritatingly smug then focused on the love confession of the two people in front.

"Those people who love each other should not be separated from each other."

"Always remember, If there is love, there is God."

"Love will guide your marriage so continue loving each other."

"Always believe in each other's love and love will always prevail."

The priest preached with full of sincerity to the new couple.

She then remembered her own wedding with the cold man seated opposite to her.

It was also intimate. Not much preparation. It was quick and also rush just like the wedding but the only difference, her marriage to Bill is with a contract. It’s a fake relationship.

She still remembered her beautiful gown, the venue, and the happy faces of their parents at that time. Such a simple but beautiful wedding if only it was true.

How nice to be in love!

How nice to be wedded to the one you love!

Then the reality hits her hard.

Marrying Bill was the worst decision she made. Her tears dripped down remembering the pain she suffered because of him.

She would be very happy if Bill would approach her to divorce him. He would be marrying Trishia sooner as what she heard in the restroom. Somehow, she wanted to expedite their marriage for them to leave her alone. She could not wait for the time that she will get her normal life back. The life that she didn’t need to hide.

Their contract had been long over and they both breached the contract. From the beginning, they both breached the contract and the first rule they broke: having sex. Now, they should put an end to their marriage by filing a divorce. She was very determined to be free from the monster. Even without Damien, she deserves to be free. With her experience, she had long gone lost her interest in wishing that someday she would marry someone she loves just like almost all the girls' dreams. With Adam, she could not ask anything more. She is happy and satisfied with her son. About her love life, she didn't know if she still could trust love as what the priest had preached.

Bill looked at the girl on the opposite side. She was still wearing a ring. It was not the ring he gave her at their wedding. His eyes darkened and flickered once staring at the ring on her finger.

After quite a while, the ceremony ended.

“Bestie, let’s take a picture,” Farrah called her.

Arabella smiled and walked closer to them. Gab also went to the man who was just sitting calmly like a king.

Gab and Bill went back and join the girls. Gab made a groupie picture. Arabella could not smile with Bill on her side so she hugged Farrah to avoid Bill. But in one picture, Gab hugged his wife, Arabella had no choice but to smile stiffly beside Bill.

“Let me take your picture together.” To avoid awkwardness, Arabella offered to take the photos.

She took a lot of photos with the newlywed.

“How about, I’ll take the photo of my best man and the bridesmaid?” Gab uttered teasingly.

“Nahhh…No need.” Arabella quickly refuted.

Gab looked at Bill who had no effect on his teasing.

"Oh, common! For our marriage souvenirs, okay?" Gab didn't stop as he tapped Bill on the shoulder.

Farrah looked at Arabella pleading. Arabella was still unmoved. She was not willing to be beside him for even just a second as it made her sick to death. Then suddenly, she felt a hand grabbed her waist behind. She had jumpscare then her spikes rose crazily. She doesn't need to see the person to know the owner of the hand on her waist. She just smiled awkwardly to get it done and went closer to Farrah.

“Okay, thank you Bill and Arabella for coming here and be our only witness at our wedding. Bill, thanks man for arranging everything here on very short notice. Arabella, thanks for giving me your best friend’s hand to love and to cherish. We never thought that this day would happen. It’s just that we can’t live without each other. So, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you.” Gab expressed

“No problem. Please take care of my best friend. I know she may be stubborn sometimes but please give her your full understanding. She’s very sweet and a nice girl.” Arabella responded to Gab.

“You can trust me,” Gab replied with full of affirmation.

“Bye Bestie! I will see you again when I come back.” Farrah said and gave away her bridal bouquet to Arabella before she went out of the church and enter the yacht with Gab.

Arabella waved at them smiling and happy with her best friend. When they had gone far away, Arabella was left smiling but not until she realized that it was almost going to be dark soon. She was in a private place with no taxi in the area. She had to walk with her stilettos for roughly 1 hour to reach the main gate of the coastal compound that if she would not get lost.

She started walking when a luxurious car stopped beside her.

“Get in,” Bill ordered. He was driving a black Lamborghini sports car.

Her heartbeat quickened. Arabella didn’t mind him and continue her walking. She acted like no one is talking and she didn’t hear him. She wouldn’t mind walking alone with her stilettos or even her feet would get hurt just not to be in his car.

No way!

The wind started to get frosty. The coastal private compound was a bit far from the city. People living there seemed the owner of yachts or people who were active in luxurious water sports like fishing, jet skiing, and parasailing as she could see houses parked with jet skis and boats. If only she knew that there’s no cab in the area, she would have asked the taxi driver to wait for her.

She could not hear Bill’s car anymore as she continues her walking finding the way to the entrance. At this moment, she stopped a bit because she felt a scratch on her foot. If she was not mistaken, she had already walked about 20 minutes with her 5-inch-high stilettos.

Yes! She would endure the pain on her foot just to avoid the monster.

Just when a car stopped in front of her with a screeching sound. The car blocked her way. An intense nervous suddenly rose on her.

The monster!

She thought with anger while clenching her fists. If he’s really persistent in pestering her, she would not give him satisfaction. She walked to the other side of the road avoiding the car but three men went out of the car and blocked her way.

They seemed to be drunk by the way they looked.

“Looks like my bride is lost.” The man cheerfully said while he grinned at her devilishly. “Don’t worry, I'm here now to save you.” He added having predator's eyes.

Arabella trembled in fright. She thought, it’s Bill but it’s not. Then she remembered that she was still holding the bridal bouquet.

Damn! She really looked like a bride walking on the street finding her lost groom.

Big trouble! She could sense big trouble on her way.

Instead of replying to the drunk man, she quickly walked back as they blocked her way.

“Hey! Where are you going, my bride?” He seemed the leader of the group. They looked like a bunch of idiot kids with rich parents.

Arabella had no time to waste as she quickened her walk like almost running but the three men followed her.

Quickly, the other man had caught her.

“Where are you going beautiful lady?” The guy looked like a bully college boy.

“Let go of me!” Arabella exclaimed with fury while struggling from his grip.

“Oh. Calm down. Don’t you think you can still escape from our territory?” The leader said with clearly evil intentions showed in his eyes. He seemed to live in the compound.

“Bring her to the yacht!” Then he ordered his friends that made Arabella went crazily panic.

“No! You guys don’t know what you’re doing. I can sue you for this.” She said with toughness.

The men laughed out loud.

They laughed insanely.

“Seriously? You think you can sue the son of a General?” The third man huffed. He was referring to the bossy leader.

“Hahaha… Such a pain in the ass son. Surely your father is so proud of you.” She had no match with them in terms of strength so, she could only depend on her wits to fight with them.

“You!” The leader got affected by Arabella’s words. In his anger, he pushed Arabella and she shoved directly to the ground.

“Ah!” She shouted in pain as she twisted her ankle and got sprained.

“Pick her and I will teach her a lesson that she will never forget.” The leader who was still enraged with her badmouthing ordered the two.

Then the two boys got her up with a twisted ankle. She could feel the intense pain and her nervousness heightened.

“Let me go!” Arabella endured the pain and shouted as she tried her best to struggle against the two men.

Just when they were about to go back inside their car with Arabella, a sports car ran furiously like almost flying and deliberately smashed their car.

Suddenly, a screeching sound, a loud impact of metals clashed with each other and a shattering of glasses were heard.

In deep shock, the three men stopped and stayed rooted in their spots for a while.

Who is that reckless driver?

They saw their car jumped a meter away and got covered with heavy smoke.

“My car! My car!”

“My daddy’s car! He is going to kill me!” The leader suddenly burst out crying.

“You! Who are you?” He pointed to the reckless driver angrily.

“I am the lost groom..” The man replied calmly like nothing happened.
