Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Sabrina stepped out from her shower room and reach her ringing phone. She swipe it to answer the call and place it on her ear.

”Darling, let’s have a dinner with mom and dad. This is regarding our wedding.” She hang up and reply him through text.

He reply with a kiss and a heart. She chuckled on his corny message and reply him back with a koala emoji. She exhales as she put her phone away. She sat down on her chair and lean as she closes her eyes and massage the space between her brows. Then to relieve the pain, she open the film that Tequila sent to her and watch Janine try to bribe Tequila. She was even almost beaten up by one of the inmates.

”It’s just the start Janine. You have so much more to go before your end.” She then gets up and pick one of the dresses in the wardrobe of her office. She puts it in the dress bag and left with her Ferrari to pick up her fiancé.

She even puts on a light make up. She arrives in his office and toss the car keys to his personal valet. She walk inside the building and forget that there’s a private elevator for him so she uses the alternative. She wanted to smack her face because of it, as she didn’t want to make a face with these people and listen to their gossip about her being mute and whatnots. But anyway, it is just their mouth talking.

She reach his office and once the secretary let her in, she frown at the sight of Marga crying in front of Gabriel though he looked unaffected. She rolled her eyes on the acting of Marga. Gabriel’s emotionless face soften when he saw her. She walk toward him, sat on his lap and kisses his lips.

”Sis, why do you have to do that to mom? She’s innocent.” Marga asked pitifully. Sabrina make a sympathetic face—but a way to mock her. Poor girl if she only knew how her mother do nasty things to someone else’s mother.

”Sabrina has nothing to do with this. It was all my doing. And regarding your mother, I think I don’t have much to help you with it. She tried to hurt Sabrina by causing an accident. Do you think that I’ll let it happen again?”

”And how would you know that it was my mom?” She burst out in anger.

”We have proof.” Marga stormed out from the office and she lovingly cuddle on him like a kitten. ”Ready to go?” She nodded.

They left the office using the private elevator and she drove her Ferrari to the Lawson mansion. Her father is present while her siblings are absent. She receive a message from Ethan that they eloped to Hawaii. Before Ethan reveal it, she already knew what he had planned in advance. And as for Enzo, he’s busy wooing the dangerous Catastrophe.

Gabriel was busy slicing steak for her while Gabriel’s mother was discussing about the guests and other stuffs in the wedding. Since the wedding will be next week seven days to go, they have to thoroughly plan for it to be a perfect wedding for the couple.

She just listen to Gabriel’s mother and Gabriel was the one who talks more about it.

”Are you really sure that you are okay with it?” Valerie, Gabriel’s mother asked. She nodded. ”Well, if it’s alright with you, I can help with arrangements.” She nodded again.

”Mom, please don’t make it creepy. She wants soldiers for entrance.”

”That’s not a bad idea after all. When can I see you in your wedding gown?” Valerie asked excitedly. ”I heard that your personal designer design it for you.” She nodded. She writes on her tablet and showed it to her.

”Tomorrow.” Valerie couldn’t help but to be happy. She just couldn’t wait for her son to get married.

”Don’t over excite yourself, dear. You might ruin the wedding before it even started.” Her husband Benedict tease her.

”How could I ruin the wedding?” She frown at her husband.

”Like: you might wish to get us married immediately after seeing the wedding gown.” Everyone chuckle.

After the dinner, Gabriel drove her Ferrari back to their own villa. He open the door for her and her usual attitude was to held up her arms for him to carry her. He carried her like a princess and she lovingly keep kissing his neck and cheeks and earlobe.

”In few days, your step-mother will be bailed out.” She type on her phone.

”I know. She should be at our wedding.”

”My wife, are you that eager to make her suffer?” Instead of answering him, she passionately kisses his mouth mixed with aggressiveness. ”I’ll take that as a yes then.”

It takes three days for Janine to bail herself out. Millions for bailing herself was just a little amount for her. Since it was from her Big Boss who pampered her so much. She can finally take a long bath and go to spa. Her daughter is waiting outside and Marga hugged her with tears.

”I am fine, my doll. Don’t worry so much, they are going to pay for this.” She comfort her and they go home. She didn’t find Ferdinand in the house or even the triplets. The butler treat her as usual. Casual like she was a guest and not the madam of the house.

The maid hurried in preparing her bath. She demanded foods.

”I already book our spa.” Marga said. ”Mom, Sabrina will get married in four days.”

”Then let her…” Janine close her eyes with cucumber on her both eyes as the bubbles are around her body in the bathtub.

”Where are your brothers?”

”They disappear with their girlfriends.”

”Hmm.” Marga still feel anxious about everything.

”Mom, did you really try to kill Sabrina?” Janine was stiff for a while and she acted like it was nothing.

”Those are false accusation.”

”But they wouldn’t file charges and a warrant of arrest if they don’t have proofs?”

”It was tampered or fabricated. I don’t know.” She scoff. Marga didn’t asked further but she know that something wasn’t right. She was doubting whether her mother could do it or not. But she and her mother had done something—that can be call a crime but murder was way too far from it.

Ethan surprise her with a simple wedding. Two people, the one that will bless them and the Hawaiian ritual for the wedding. She was too surprise and cried in happiness. She never thought that she’ll wake up with a ring on her finger and that her dream of him asking her to marry him wasn’t a dream at all.

They said their vow that comes from their heart without a script.

”I vow, my love and my life to you. To love you until death do us apart. I will be faithful to you, and dote you even if I become forgetful. My wife, my love, my life… I will always accept your flaws and will always trust you with my life. I love you.” Ethan said those words, full of sincerity. He wipe her tears.

He’s willing to accept any of her flaws and he vow that he will trust her with his life.

”Ethan, I vow my love and my life to you. To love you until death do us part. I will always be true to you, will trust you and will only love you until my last breath. I promise that I’ll be your wife, to take care of you and will always be there for your ups and downs. I love you and I entrust my life to you.” He scoop her wet cheeks and keep wiping her tears.

”Baby, no matter what happens. No matter what your pasts is…nothing else will matter. Only you and your love matters to me.” She nodded and accept his kiss.

They have a simple dinner at a secluded area. She didn’t tell him what happened in her past. She didn’t want to ruin their night with it.

”You ready?” He kisses her naked neck and lick her collar bone. She gasped and hold on him tight.

”I trust you.”

Their nude body are intertwined with each other until passion and burning desire melts the cold night on the island. Their passion lasts until breaking dawn. Trusting each other with the love and the bound to love each other until death separates them.
