Chapter 5 - Dont Tell Me You Are CEDRIC EMERSON!! (1/2)
Eleanor saw Jacob and Jessica standing in the center of the stage and receiving congratulations from the guests.
She has to agree Jessica's wedding dress is beautiful. It has a long skirt and it fills half of the stage. It is designed with bright white precious stones. She has thick makeup on her face. A huge smile was plastered on her face.
She turned her face to look at Jacob and gave a shy smile as if asking him to help her out from the guest teasing. Jacob did that gladly.
After he interfered the guest left. Jacob kissed the top of her head. Jessica blushed and whispered something in his ear.
Damn! I need to puke! Eleanor, who saw their exchange thought.
Meanwhile, all the guests are curious. And they kept staring at Eleanor. They wanted to watch the drama here.
”Cedric, let's go over and congratulate them,” She said.
Cedric nodded his head and followed her to the stage. He was curious about how she was going to deal with them.
”Congratulations on your wedding. Well, he is my boyfriend, Cedric,” Eleanor said.
”Thanks to you, I found him,” Eleanor said to Jacob as she smirked. Eleanor is ready to get into a verbal battle with Jacob. She doesn't want to give him a chance to mock her rented boyfriend. But she was stunned when she met with his silence.
How could Jacob doesn't know who Cedric is? This woman! How did she meet him!
He has to agree, Cedric is more capable than him!
He felt angry! How can he let her have a good life?!
The Zora empire was handled by Eleanor's father. Eleanor never attended any parties or banquets involving the business. And also Cedric never attended them. People who knew him were the people, who made deals with him.
Before Jacob could say something, Eleanor took the mic and started saying loudly.
”Everyone, here, I think everyone knew, the groom and I dated before. And the bride is none other than my best friend. They both cheated on me. Last week, if I hadn't caught them red-handedly, I wouldn't have known.
”And I'm Thankful for his betrayal. If not for him, I wouldn't have met my current boyfriend Cedric. I have to thank Jacob for it. I hope the bride and groom will have a happy life,” With that Eleanor went towards Cedric and kissed him in front of everyone making them gasp in shock.
Even Cedric is stunned. Soon, he went along with her and kissed her. He didn't mind if they were in public or not. He just kissed.
He has to agree that he is attracted to her. Her methods and way of dealing are different. A sly smile started forming on his lips.
After some time she broke the kiss. Cedric wiped her lips with his thumb and gave a small kiss on her forehead.
Before leaving Eleanor whispered in Jessica's ear, ”I let you have a happy marriage. Enjoy it when you can. I have a gift for you,” She winked at her and then proceeded to leave the stage, as she held her head high.
Jessica clenched her hands into a tight fist. This is her wedding. She has to be the star. But why does she have to take the spotlight?
And even though she knew who Cedric was, she made a research on the rich people's background. She just didn't have the chance to seduce him. She felt regretful for marrying Jacob. He is nothing but a cockroach in front of Cedric. Jessica decided to go after Cedric after the wedding. And she will find a chance to divorce this b*stard.
How can that b*tch be this lucky? While all Jessica got is her leftovers or her abandoned things!
She just wanted to have a better life than Eleanor. She wanted to show that she was in a higher place than her.
But her thoughts are interrupted by big background noise. The noise startled the guests but still, it caught their attention. The LED screens which are set around the hall started playing a video.
