CHAPTER 371
News of Steven Kahuna's wedding was no longer just an announcement, it had evolved into something far bigger, it had become the main event. Across elite circles, elegant black envelopes embossed in silver began arriving one after another. Politicians paused meetings just to open them, CEOs set aside contracts, influential families gathered in their living rooms, reading the contents with raised brows and intrigued expressions. And with each invitation… came a reaction. Curiosity, excitement and speculations, and in some cases… concern. Because when Steven Kahuna did something, it was never small and quiet. ***** Inside Helen Milton’s bedroom, silence filled the space except for the faint rustle of fabric. Her bed was covered in dresses, three evening gowns, two designer cocktail dresses and one elegant navy-blue gown she had purchased months ago but never worn. Helen stood in front of the mirror, arms folded across her chest, studying herself carefully. Her expres

All through this while, Luisa Payne has been very much busy. One would think she was into decorating as she needed everything to be perfect and with no blemishes. Ever since the wedding invitations were sent out, Louisa Payne took it upon herself just three days to the wedding to keep everything spontaneous and all. The venue was already transforming into something breathtaking. Workers moved in coordinated rhythm. Tall floral arrangements were being lifted carefully into place. Crystal chandeliers were installed one by one. White marble flooring reflected soft golden lights as decorators adjusted the final touches. And at the center of it all, Luisa Payne stood with a tablet in her hand, her expression calm but firm. “No, not there.” The decorator paused. “Ma’am?” Luisa walked forward, her heels clicking softly against the polished floor. “The roses should be slightly to the left. I want the aisle to feel open.” The decorator nodded immediately. “Yes, ma’am.” Luisa tu

Finally, it's the D-day. The morning arrived gently, with soft sunlight filtered through the curtains across the city, touching homes, penthouses, estates each carrying its own anticipation. Today, Steven Kahuna and Jennifer Payne would get married. And across the city, hearts awakened differently, some with excitement, some with nerves, some with hope and some with quiet fear. Luisa Payne had been awake since 5:00 AM. She stood in her dressing room, already fully dressed in a soft champagne-colored silk robe. Her hair stylist carefully worked behind her, while two assistants arranged makeup palettes nearby. Despite the early hour, Luisa looked composed. But her eyes betrayed her, she hadn’t slept much, her mind had been running through every detail. Every arrangement, every moment and her phone rested beside her, she picked it up. “Is the florist there yet?” she asked calmly. Her assistant answered quickly. “Yes, ma’am. They arrived at 4:30.” Luisa nodded, “
CHAPTER 374
Jennifer woke slowly. The morning light filtered gently through the curtains, painting her room in soft gold. For a few seconds, she remained still, caught between sleep and consciousness, her breathing slow, her mind blank. Then her heart began to race. Something felt different and important. Her brows knit slightly as she blinked, staring at the ceiling. For a moment, she forgot what day it was. Then it hit her. Her eyes widened. “…Today.” The word escaped softly, barely louder than a whisper. Her heart began pounding harder, her chest rising and falling faster than before. She sat up quickly, her silk nightdress sliding gently over her legs as she pulled the blanket aside. Today is her wedding day. Her hands trembled slightly as she placed them on her lap. “I’m getting married today…” The reality felt both surreal and overwhelming. Her phone buzzed suddenly on the bedside table. She turned quickly, it was Lisa. Jennifer answered almost immediately.
CHAPTER 375
By late morning, the venue had come alive. What had once been a quiet, beautifully decorated space in the early hours was now filled with purposeful movement and quiet urgency. Security teams moved efficiently across the grounds, their presence calm but alert. Earpieces in place, eyes scanning every entry point, they communicated in low voices while checking guest lists, confirming routes, and coordinating arrivals. Nothing was left to chance. At the far end of the venue, staff carefully adjusted the floral arrangements. White roses, soft peonies, and delicate baby’s breath formed elegant clusters that lined the aisle. The scent of fresh flowers drifted gently through the air, adding a calm softness to the otherwise bustling atmosphere. Event planners moved quickly, tablets in hand, checking schedules and confirming timing. “Photographers arrive in fifteen minutes.” “Confirm the string quartet.” “Check the lighting once more.” Every instruction was precise. Every m
CHAPTER 376
The venue had reached that delicate moment between anticipation and reality. The quiet bustle that filled the space earlier slowly softened into an elegant calm. The sunlight streamed through the tall glass windows, settling gently over the white aisle runner and reflecting softly off polished floors. White roses lined both sides, their petals fresh and delicate, releasing a subtle fragrance that blended with the faint scent of peonies and baby’s breath. The string quartet had begun playing. Soft violin melodies floated through the air, calm and graceful, setting a refined atmosphere. The music wrapped gently around the guests as they slowly began arriving. Outside, black luxury vehicles pulled in one after another. Security teams moved efficiently, opening doors, checking guest lists, and guiding arrivals with practiced ease. The first guests stepped out. Elegant gowns, tailored suits and subtle jewelry. Quiet sophistication, soft greetings followed as people e
CHAPTER 377
The hall fell into a deeper stillness. It was no longer just anticipation, it was emotion, the kind that settled quietly in the chest, making every breath feel slightly heavier and more meaningful. Steven and Jennifer stood side by side at the altar, their hands gently intertwined. Neither of them spoke, yet their fingers tightened slightly around each other, as though silently reassuring one another. We’re here. We made it. The priest smiled warmly at them before turning toward the audience. “Today, we gather to witness something beautiful… something sacred. A union built not only on love… but trust, friendship, and commitment.” His voice was calm and steady, filling the hall without overwhelming the quiet atmosphere. Steven glanced sideways at Jennifer. She felt his gaze. Her lips curved slightly and her heart beat faster. She had imagined this moment countless times, yet standing here now felt completely different. It felt real… overwhelming… and deeply em
CHAPTER 378
The applause from the ceremony slowly softened into cheerful conversation as guests began moving toward the reception hall. The large double doors opened, revealing a breathtaking setting. Warm golden lights hung elegantly from above, casting a soft glow across the room. Crystal chandeliers shimmered gently, reflecting light onto polished marble floors. Round tables draped in ivory satin filled the hall, each centerpiece decorated with white roses, soft peonies, and delicate candles flickering quietly. A soft instrumental band played near the far end of the room. The atmosphere felt warm. Elegant. Joyful. The reception had begun. Steven and Jennifer entered together, hand in hand. The moment they appeared, applause filled the room once again. Guests stood, smiles spread across faces. Some cheered softly, Jennifer laughed shyly, glancing up at Steven as they walked toward the center of the hall. His fingers tightened gently around hers. He leaned slightl
CHAPTER 379
The reception hall remained alive with laughter, music, and celebration. Glasses clinked gently. Soft laughter floated through the air. The dance floor shimmered under golden lights as couples moved gracefully, their steps blending with the rhythm of the music. Jennifer and Steven stood near the center of the hall, surrounded by guests offering congratulations. Their smiles never faded as they accepted warm hugs and heartfelt wishes. “Congratulations.” “You both look perfect together.” “Wishing you happiness always.” Jennifer’s cheeks warmed from smiling so much, but she didn’t mind. Every moment felt precious. Every greeting felt sincere. Steven remained calm beside her, occasionally glancing at her with quiet affection. Each time their eyes met, they smiled as if silently reminding each other… we did it. Not far away, Luisa Payne stood with a few distinguished guests, gracefully accepting compliments about the wedding. “It’s beautiful, Mrs. Payne.” “You org
CHAPTER 380
The evening had deepened into something softer. The bright excitement of earlier had mellowed into warmth — the kind that wrapped around everyone present like a quiet embrace. The music still played, laughter still echoed, glasses still clinked… but now, everything felt more intimate. More personal, more real and at the center of it all, Steven and Jennifer moved from table to table, acknowledging guests, sharing smiles, accepting blessings. Their energy hadn’t faded, but there was a growing tenderness in the way they carried themselves now. They were no longer just celebrating, they were beginning. Near the front of the hall, a small announcement was made. “Ladies and gentlemen… we will now proceed to the presentation of gifts to the couple.” A gentle ripple of excitement moved through the room. Guests settled slightly. Some turned in their seats. Others leaned forward with curiosity. Jennifer glanced at Steven, her eyes lighting up slightly. “Gifts?” she whis
