Chapter 747 - Two days before wedding (J&J) (8) (1/2)
Main course was served, when Aiden and Sarah got notification from Eve in their earpieces: ”Tiffany Fortin was rendered unconscious at the North side entrance.”
”Already? This will be an eventful evening. We should bet on how many people Eve knocks out tonight.”, Sarah giggled at Aiden's exaggerated expression while refusing to bet against her. ”Who is she?”
Aiden shrugged. ”No one important.”
Sarah understood that it's one more hopeful to get attention of Whites. ”We should compile list of names and share it with Anna so that she can have insight into people who are trying to get close to Jeff. And we should increase punishments for repeat offenders.”
Aiden agreed with this idea. He has no problems punishing people who are trying to meddle in Jeff's or in his relationship.
The only real threat Aiden sees for him is from seven ex-friends who are after him, and he knows they are coming. Those seven will not let this opportunity go to waste. Based on their family connections, he knows that all of them will be invited. Whatever they are preparing for him, he is ready to take it head on… the only fear he has is how Sarah will react if she is exposed to the information about his past. Aiden wants to avoid Sarah knowing about that at any cost. After her meltdown, he is confident that she will not handle his past well no matter how many times she said that the only thing that matters is the present… and the future they are building together.
Aiden reminded himself to stay calm. Those people will not be here before the wedding, which is in two days. Until then, he can relax. And on the wedding day, he will make sure to stick close to Sarah and not allow anyone to run his (or hers) mouth recklessly near her.

Madison entered main building of the resort while brimming with confidence.
She grimaced while remembering how those bodyguards asked: 'do you have an invitation?' Eh, why would she need one? She looks like a million bucks! The bright red mini-dress is just right… squeezing her breasts to make them plumper, hugging her waist to show how narrow it is, and exposing her long and alluring legs which are even further enhanced with her six inch high stiletto heels. No one can refuse this! Bodyguards will NOT stop her from entering through that main door, and when Aiden sees her… she giggled while imagining his reaction. After all, her body is much more… mature than it used to be back then.
Madison paused at the entry hall of the building while remembering from the resort map: if she goes through the lounge, there is a door on the side that leads to the hallway which connects to a small lobby and from there she can access main door of the building where event is.
”Madison?”, she heard someone call while she walked through the lounge.
Madison turned toward the voice.
”Harriet? Nice to see you here.”, Madison's expression didn't match her words.
Madison internally rolled her eyes while remembering how everyone knows that Harriet Morgan is eyeing Jeffrey White for like… more than a decade. What a looser! By now even an ugly hag would get the attention of the man she is after. But why is she sitting here if the party is in the other building? And it seems she is drinking some alcoholic beverage… Madison decided to investigate. She can delay her grand entry for few minutes.
”How come you are here?”, Madison plastered a smile on her face while taking a seat on the sofa next to Harriet.
Harriet was slurring due to alcohol in her system, but Madison understood that Harriet was stopped from entering the venue by the bodyguards. And even when she threatened with her father, no one even flinched. She mentioned some annoying girl, but it didn't make any sense, so Madison dismissed that part.
Madison focused on the important bits: if Harriet was not able to enter, even after mentioning her father… how is she supposed to get in? Madison is more than confident in her looks, but she can't deny that Harriet is an attractive woman as well. And Morgans are more powerful than her family.
After some time, idea popped into Madison's mind: if she can't get in, she needs to get Aiden out.
…
Inside event hall…
”Sarah, honey…”, Stella's voice made Sarah almost jump out of her seat.
