Chapter 8
Emily Thompson
It’s been three days after the announcement of my wedding to Bryan. After telling my family I agreed to marry him, the wedding preparations began. Everyone has been
busy, especially Mom, she
seems so happy about the
whole thing.
Jessica as always, has been very supportive too, helping out with one or two things,
especially the wedding dress. She made sure to focus on that part. Janet is always hard to see

around in the house. It’s either she comes back home late or, gives excuses with work.
Well, I’m not bothered. After all, the whole thing is nothing but fake. Deep down, I know Bryan felt nothing serious for me. He was only lying and deceiving my family that he loved me.
He said it already, that he would never be used and get dumped. It will only be over if he said so. I’m also aware that, all he wanted was just to get another taste of me but he wished. Nothing as such is going to happen between us

ever again.
He claimed he loved me yet, he hasn’t called not even once since the last day he visited our house.
I’m sure, Brandon told him about what happened to me yet, I didn’t even get a text from him. Yet, he said he loves
- me.
Liar!
Brandon on the other hand, has been giving me cold shoulder for the past few days now. I don’t know how else to make him understand me. He believes every word of that liar

over his sister. I’m also aware
that I took it far while arguing
with him the other day but still, that doesn’t mean I’m wrong.
“Emily, the designer just called now. He said the dresses are ready” Jessy announced the moment she walked into my room. She look so excited.
“And why are you telling me? Only you went to him to discuss how to make the
dresses so, why involve me
now?” I asked with a raised brow before focusing back on my phone.

I’m not interested in this and never will I be.
This is not how I have planned to have my wedding. I wanted to be with the man who loved me. A man who cares so much about me. I wanted a baby girl lifestyle, where my man treat me like an egg but, all I’ve dreamt of, nothing as such is happening. This is not the kind of wedding I have wished for myself.
“Young lady, whatever crazy thought is running through your mind right now, I don’t care and I don’t wish to know. All I know is, you’re coming

with me to the designer’s place
and that’s final” She insist, finality laced in her tone.
I gave her a sharp look before rolling my eyes. “Madame, stop acting like my mom. It doesn’t suit you”
“Well, I’m glad you see the category of our mom in me and I’m sure, you know what mom’s next action is going to be. Imagine me trying to mimic Mom, You of all people know what next she’s going to do to you after talking to you nicely, right? So, now get up, and let’s go”

“I hate you!”
“And I love you too! So much with all my heart. Come on, hurry up. We need to be there before time runs out
“We can go there tomorrow, right? It’s already 6:23 pm” I suggested after checking the time.
“No, we are going now. I’m driving the car and I’m not complaining”
“Witch” I murmured under my breath.
“I heard you” she glared at me.

“I didn’t say anything ” I said before sauntering to my closet to find something good and simple to wear.
On our way out of the house, we saw Bryan coming out of his car.
I missed him so much. Not talking to me for a whole two days in this house feels like hell.
Before this whole annoying thing began, he would be in my room till I fell asleep before he left and, would also be the first person to wake me up the next morning but, it’s

been three good days already… No affection, no talk from him! Just stare for a few seconds and that’s it.
I’m also glad, no one in the house noticed anything or maybe they do, they just don’t want to say a word. I have no idea.
“Hey, bro! Welcome back” Jessy
said to him excitedly.
She look too excited for my liking. Anyone who sees her right now would probably
think, she’s the one getting married and that too, to the love of her life. Not knowing

I’m the one being forced into this.
He gave her a suspicious look before sparing me a short glance. “Hey. And, where are you two going to by this time of the day?” He sounded, tired.
“The designer just called. The wedding dress is ready. I’m taking her there for fitting. We need to know if the dress fits or
needs adjustment”
“Hmmm, I see. Why don’t I drop you girls then?” He asked and both our gaze suddenly locked together.

I wasn’t expecting him to volunteer to take us there.
“But, you just come back from work. Aren’t you tired already?” I asked.
“It’s fine. I’m not too tired that I can’t drive you girls there” he answered, smiling. I don’t
know why but my heart melted with just that simple smile of his.
All I wanted to do right now was to go to him and hug him tightly but, I don’t think I can.
“Perfect then, let’s go, guys!” Jessy announced and ran to the back seat as fast as she could.

One would think someone is chasing her or something.
I was shocked as Brandon walked to the passenger seat and opened the car door for
- me.
I smiled and thanked him before hopping in. He walked over to the driver seat, ignited the car engine, and drove off straight to the designer’s shop or whatever it was being called.
We arrived at the designer’s place and I hopped down from the car. My eyes suddenly widened in horror with the sight in front of me and my
