Chapter 108 BEAUTY AND OBEDIENCE
1846words
I couldn't help but hold her chin and gets closer to her when she didn't reply to me, For a moment I did get seduced by her innocence and shyness., "Will you do this favor to me, Tessy?"
I don't know from where I think of her calling as Tessy, she nods her head obediently and I pat her cheek staring at her luscious lips but then getting my senses back, I immediately pull away from her.
She didn't move looking a bit disoriented I am too breathing heavily from the closeness and change of emotions in my body. F**k, Andrew you love Mona only Mona. I keep chanting and then noticing her still beside me I remind her coldly.
"You are getting late."
She seems to get back her senses as she gets off the car and then bending down she bids me bye, "Bye, then."
I nod my head trying my best to not look at her, she turns and walks towards the salon. I finally look at her wriggling ass moving in sync as she walks.
God… This woman is too seductive, I curse and then loosen my tie.
"Turn the Ac on." I tell Ron and he looks at me surprised, "It's already on." He informs and I curse, F**k, then why I have started to sweat suddenly from the heat?
The whole day I was distracted by this little encounter with the woman who is going to become my wife tomorrow, legally.
I have seen that woman from afar before but looking at her from so close makes me disarm.
I call Mona and ask about her health, yeah these days her health is very important to me, she sounds dull. I don't know why. I wanted to go and check on her but tomorrow is my wedding and I can't be near Mona at this crucial time.
My nights are sleepless since Ann had informed me about the wedding date, she had already picked my tuxedo and I hate that I am going to see a strange woman as my bride instead of Mona.
Mona shows no sign of pregnancy at all, and also it's not even a month since we have returned from our small trip.
I sigh, it seems like no matter what I try to do, God has destined that woman to be in my life. Surrendering to God's will I stop fighting with my fate.

I and Ann reach the church together, just a few people are present for the wedding. Definitely, we can't tell everyone the reason behind this marriage after all.
I wear my tuxedo and Ann looks at me with eyes shining with pride and love. "I know, I have forced you into this..." Ann takes a deep sigh, "Thank you for doing this." She thanks me politely and then puts a small flower into the front pocket of my coat.
I pass her a smile and she then walks out to see the guests she had invited. From Tessa's family, no one is invited as far as I know.
I walk towards the window, I suddenly start to feel suffocated and uneasy as I need some fresh air desperately but when I stand at the window I see something that makes me angry.
I see Ron helping Tessa out of the car and even after helping her out, he is still holding her hand in his, which somehow makes me annoyed. This woman... God, she is so shameless and seductive. How could she possibly seduce Ron too?
I start fuming in anger as I notice the blush on both of their faces.
This woman is full of schemes. I throw disgusting glares at both of them and then storm out of the room.

I stand with a stone-cold face when the melody starts to play in the background and the sound of a creak indicates the arrival of the bride. I look at her coldly, her innocent face is hidden under the veil, huh, what a shame. Only I know how much the scheming person she is. Selling her womb for money, seriously...
We say our vows and announces as Husband and Wife, I didn't even spare a single glance at the ring that she had specifically customized to take my attention. Well, dream on. You could fool my sister with your innocence but not me.
I saw you seducing Ron with my own eyes, girl. I shout out loud in my mind and there the time comes to reveal her true malicious face as I lift her veil and then stop.
F**k, she looks beautiful more than Mona, and her eyes I have never seen that much clear eyes and it instantly reminds me of the first time when I had seen Ann, her eyes were also innocent like this.
But she isn't innocent. Thinking about this a bitter feeling appears in my heart and I kiss her more quickly than it should be.
The sound of clap comes after and she giggles happily, I give her a hard glare and she immediately sobers up.
Huh, celebrating her victory, too early.
After we leave the church we head to the restaurant where Ann has prepared for our reception. I stay silent the whole ride and so does the woman beside me. As soon as I get down from the car, Ron comes over to help her, and I roll my eyes sarcastically and then walk away from them. Let them have their little moment.
As I reach inside, I meet with Lillian and she gives me some shocking news that nearly freaks me out.
"What? Why?" I squeal in a low voice.
"You had asked me to deliver the ring to her place," Lillian reminds me and I curse myself for forgetting this.
I had asked her to prepare the proposal and the ring for Mona on valentine's day.
I keep calling Mona all the time but she never picks up my call and I feel like I am on pins and needles until I hear a voice, "Our Wedding Dance?"
I pause listening to the voices near me and then a song starts to play in the background. F**k.
I look up at Tessa, and then at Ann. Ann gives me a look that says "You Have To Do This."
And finally, I stand up with reluctance and walk straight to the center without waiting for her.
She arrives after a while with a heartwarming smile and I notice she has done something to her dress, "Shall we?"
She asks, oh her little obedience. I nod my head and then my hand goes to her waist. She gasps and I frown when my palm feels the warmth of her skin. Is she wearing a backless dress?
We slowly start to dance and I expect her to step on my foot and ruin the evening but no, she dances quite well and that made me remind of the time when I had asked Mona to dance and she had stepped on my foot every time she gets closer to me. After that, I completely give up the idea of us dancing together.
I feel too lost in my thoughts that I didn't even realize when I finish the dance with Tessa in my arms. I look down into her eyes hoping to see Mona at her place but no, it's her, Tessa Will not Mona.
I again turn into a cold man and after helping her to stand I walk back to my place anxiously calling my girl, my love, Mona but again she didn't accept any call.
I put my phone back in my pocket and was supposed to head out when Ann sends me back to bring my wife with me.
I helplessly walk back and see a boy in the wheelchair, he has a mask on and he is very tiny compares to other boys of his age.
I feel pity for him and then shout, "So… Here is our little Cyril."
Yeah, I know his name.
With a smile on my face, I sit on my knee and ask him. "So, buddy, how are you feeling now?"
"I... I am fine… Thank you for marrying my sister." He says childishly and I wonder if he knows the real truth behind this marriage. Nope, he is too small for that.
"Shut up, Cyril." The woman beside me snap, is this the way to talk to a kid?
Ignoring her, I thank him and then ask curiously, "So, do you approve of me as your sister's husband or do I need to work on it, buddy?"
"No… No… You both are a perfect match… Just never break my sister's heart." He says and then taking his sister's hand he keeps it in mine.
"I am giving my sister to you, Kindly take good care of her." He says like a responsible brother to me.
"I will. From now on, she is my responsibility." I reply to him firmly, this little buddy seems very sincere and wise and I truly feel pleased after meeting him.
I stand up and shake his hand nicely, "It's nice meeting you, Cyril. I and your sister will visit you soon." It's time for us to leave, Ann must be waiting for us.
I nod my head at her parents and then shaking my hand in a firm grip with Mr. Dylan I leave with my bride.
As soon as I sit inside the car, the worry again surrounds me as I start calling Mona again but her calls go directly into voice mail and I close my eyes feeling distressed.
Where the hell are you, Mona??
I feel a warm touch on my knuckles, "It's going to be ok." and then a soothing voice. I look at the woman dressed in bride beside me, she gives me a genuine polite smile that makes me feel unsure of her hidden maliciousness. I hum in response and then pull away my hand from her, keeping her at distance from me.
I then close my eyes and lean back, my head pounding with multiple worries at the moment.
The car stops and I immediately jump out of it, I need to freshen up and go out to look for Mona but just as I enter the elevator, my phone starts to ring and looking at the number, I sigh in relief.
"Mona, where the f**k have you been? I had been calling you for so long." I scold her angrily.
"Oh, I sincerely apologize, I forget my phone at home, I was out actually." She says.
"Where?" I question and she pauses in thinking.
"With friends." She replies after a while.
"Ok, I am coming to you now." I inform her and she gasps in disbelief, "Now?"
"Yes," I tell her with a dark face and then end the call. I need to tell her the truth tonight. I can't keep her in dark about my marriage.
The truth has to be revealed.
