Wedding Preparations
“Have it your way. However, you are going to marry Malissa next weekend on a Saturday without any
excuses. This time, you will not disappear before the wedding or turn up bloody drunk like thest time.
Do you hear me?!” the boss screamed as he stood up and pointed an using finger at Hayden’s
face.
I grimaced as I turned to look away for a moment.
“Of course. If that’s what you want. Agree to my conditions and I’ll marry her next Saturday,” Hayden
said without hesitation.
My head snapped back to stare at him so fast that my neck make a slight cracking sound. What did he

just say?!
We’re getting married next Saturday? Isn’t that like…more than a little rushed?
“Well, I look forward to the wedding and the celebration. This is going to be huge!” the boss cried out
happily as he began pping his hands together again.
I have never seen anyone have such a fast and drastic mood shift before in my life. One moment he
was angry and then he was happily cheering and pping. If I didn’t know better, I would have believed
easily that the boss had bipr disorder.
“Cash! Lots of cash!” the boss shouted before he pressed the same button from before.
Thest time he ordered champagne, and it was brought in. This time he ordered…it can’t be. Please
tell me what I’m thinking isn’t correct.
A momentter, the same thin man knocked at the door before entering with tworge luggage.
Carefully he rolled the tworge luggage to where we were seated. With an approving nod from the
boss, the thin man unlocked and opened the luggage one by one to disy wads of cash that were
neatly ordered inside.
“This is for you, Malissa dearest. Please do let me know if this isn’t enough. I know that we are short on
time but there isn’t anything that money cannot solve when ites to arranging for a wedding, right?
Please use this money for everything that you need and want. Tailor your dress. Buy jewelry. Beautify
yourself. Get the best of everything! If you don’t know what to choose just go with the most expensive
option!” the boss ordered as he proudly pointed to the cash inside the luggage.
While I didn’t know how to react at having so much money offered to me for my wedding preparation,
Hayden facepalmed himself with a loud smack right next to me. The boss proudly beamed a bright and
wide smile at both of us while I tried my best to smile back. What do we do with this money now? Can
we just turn him down?
“We don’t need it. I have more than enough money to pay for my own wedding,” Hayden declined
bluntly.
“That won’t do. This isn’t just your wedding. Take the money, it’s already out and I don’t want to waste
time putting it back,” the boss snapped.
That was that. In the end, Hayden got the two conditions that he wished for, and I got tworge luggage
filled with cash. I was too shocked to say anymore. Honestly, my mind wasn’t focused on the cash in
front of me or the fact that the boss probably still had very unrealistic expectations of us. All I could
think of was the fact that I would be marrying Hayden in around a week’s time.
Things are moving along much faster than I could have ever imagine.
…
“What kind of wedding do you want to have?” I asked Hayden as we sat across from each other at the
dining table for breakfast.
After meeting the boss and finding out that our wedding was literally right around the corner, my mind
was filled with nothing but wedding preparations and ns. Unlike the wedding that we attempted
before where I just had to turn up, I was looking forward to this wedding because it was real to me. I
was marrying Hayden because I wanted to, and I wanted to make our special day a very memorable
one for us.
“The kind that you want to have,” Hayden replied without looking up from the teacup that he was
holding.
Well, that wasn’t very useful or helpful…
“What about our outfit for the day. Do you have any preferences?” I asked before I smiled sweetly at
him.
“I’ll go with the one that you like best,” Hayden replied as he ced the teacup down before he started
reaching for his phone.
I bit my lower lip when I was forced to acknowledge that Hayden either wasn’t a huge fan of nning
weddings or he just didn’t really care.
“What about the venue? Would you prefer a simple wedding at a church or maybe a more unique ce
like outdoors?” I asked while trying to keep my spirits up.
“The boss requested for that old church…from before…,” Hayden replied as he flicked his finger along
the screen of his phone.
I blinked rapidly in surprise at the mention of that church that we attempted to have our charade of a
weddingst time. Hayden did not say anymore and by that time, I hadpletely given up on trying to
engage Hayden in any of our wedding preparations. I stared at Hayden who was still paying me little to
no attention while he started reading something on his phone. I sighed silently to myself when I realized
that I was probably alone in all of this.
Suddenly, I had lost all of my appetite and I didn’t want to be sitting there close to him anymore.
Without a word, I stood up from the table and started walking away. Maybe some alone time would help
me feel better. If this was too difficult for me to do alone and Hayden didn’t really care about it, I might
as well use the money that the boss gave me to hire a wedding organizer. That’s it. Nothing that money
can’t solve when ites to wedding preparations indeed.
“Where are you going?” Hayden asked a little coldly.
“Nowhere. I’m still grounded here,” I replied before I quickly walked out of the room.
After leaving the dining room, I made my way back to my room and mmed the door close after me.
The door closed with a loud thud while I let out a loud growl of frustration. What is wrong with him?
