___________CHAPTER 60&61__________
“Court….the judge said and pounded the gavel on his desk.
He got up and left his seat.
“All rise” the bailiff said and everyone stood up until the judge left the courtroom.
“Noo! This can’t be happening. This is unfair,ahhhh!” Vina growled and broke into tears the moment the judge walked out.
“This is unfair! She continued to talk until the police came and handcuffed her,putting her hands behind her.
“Let me go,this is unfair! She cried.
Nolan walked handsomely with pride and stood right in front of her,smiling.
He tucked his hands in his pocket.
“Hmph” he chuckled and looked her in the eyes.
“You know,at some point I thought it’ll never get to this point.
“I though you were undefeated. It got to a point I lost hope,I almost gave up on this.
“Why? Because I f*cking thought you were gonna win.
“There’s a saying that goes……hmm,he rubbed his chin as if he’s trying to remember something or thinking.
He knows what he wants to say but was just trying to mock Vina,which he actually did.
“Oh yea….every damn begining has an end.
“Today,your end has come,your doom is here.
“Tch…tch…tch! He pouted and shook his head mockingly.
“How old are you now,Vina? Umm,1…2…3….oh yes! Forty five.
“Forty five plus twenty,totals,sixty five.
“I hope you get old,die and rot in that prison before twenty years.
“You’re so disgusting that your voice alone makes me wanna puke!
“Have great fun in your new home,I pray the tugs in there treat you like the devil you are.
“Enjoy your stay over there,heartless witch! You’re disgusting” he added as he spat and walked away proudly.
Vina was completely stupefied with every f*cking thing Nolan said to her.
Nolan had so much respect for her,and has never in his life spoken to her like that.
It’s the worse day of her life. She broke into another round of cry.
“AHHHH! She yelped. The police pushed her forward,aggressively as she was hesitant on moving.
They pushed her until she fell on her face. Her shot legs were still hurting so much.
They walked passed Nolan and rest as they kept looking at her till she went out of sight.
Nolan hissed.
“Thanks,man. You were stupendously amazing back there” Nolan said to Gray.
“Winning cases is my job. Never lost a case and i never will” he smiled and said.
Nolan smiled and felt proud of his friend.
He then walked up to the DPO to thank him for what he did.
It was a last minute medicine. What would have happened if he didn’t bring that.
Vina would have probably won the case and be released.
Her lawyer is somehow good too,but Gray tops him.
“You’re welcome,Mr Nolan. I am happy the case is over and everyone is safe and will be at peace,henceforth”The DPO said.
“Thank you so much” Nolan said again,giving him a handshake.
He left to join his family.
Peyton ran and hugged him tight like a baby,for no reason.
He stared at her hair for a while,cos she literally buried her face on his chest.
He hugged her back lovingly.
“I love you” she muttered.
“I love you more,candy heart” Nolan replied.
He broke from the hug and kissed her forehead before holding her hand.
“Next agenda is our wedding” he said as he kissed her engagement ring and rubbed her stomach before kissing it too.
Peyton looked at him and smiled.
The man before her is the most loving,romantic and amazing person she has ever met.
though at first,it didn’t seem so.
That’s why they say, “don’t judge anyone before you even get to know them”
“We should visit the Restaurant,baby. Then stop by aunt Agnes’s to check your dress” Nolan jolted her from her thought.
“Yea,sure” she replied and followed Nolan who held her hand like a little baby.
“Sweetest family” Nolan smiled and said.
They all smiled at them too.
“So where should we celebrate this victory of ours? He asked.
“The beach! Nora quickly said making everybody laugh.
“You didn’t even let him land,gosh” Peyton joked.
“Whatever” Nora rolled eyes at her and chuckled.
“The beach it is. Tomorrow, huh? Nolan asked and everyone concurred.
CHILLI RESTAURANT****
Nolan sat on his chair in his office while going through some things.
Peyton sat on his desk facing him,as he continued to go through them.
He noticed the sales have dropped. He then checked the email and his eyes widened.
“Come to my office now! He thundered over the telephone.
Mika entered his office almost immediately.
“Just how many days of not being around and you want to close my Restaurant?
“What is this nonsense I’m seeing here? Haven’t we been having enough customers?
“We even had a contract two days ago and you didn’t bother to check the email,now it’s been cancelled.
“What do I pay you for,Mika? To come sit down and do nothing? Nolan asked angrily.
“I’m sorry,sir. I’ve just been……
“Leave and never come back” Nolan cuts her off.
“No no no,please sir. I promise this will never happen again” Mika went on her knees, pleading.
“Of course it’ll never happen again, cos you’re not coming back here” Nolan said angrily.
“It isn’t the first nor second time this has happened, Mika.
“It’s so frustrating. Why do I have to do everything myself? He asked, ruffling his hair.
“Ma’am,please help me beg him. I promise it will never happen again” Mika turned to Peyton,begging her to talk to Nolan.
Peyton shook her head dejectedly.
She moved closer Nolan.
“Heartbeat” she called, touching him.
“Please,one more chance. I am taking this at my own risk,if the same thing repeats itself,blame it on me” she said,still touching him.
His anger subsided immediately.
Whatever Peyton has used on him,he’s sure going to find out soon. Cos he doesn’t seem to understand why he succumbs to her request every time.
Even when it’s not a good request or he’s against it.
Well,that’s because he loves her so much and hates to see her unhappy.
“Hmmm” Nolan inhaled deeply and exhaled, closing his eyes.
“Baby, you know this…..
“Please” Peyton interrupted.
“What should I do with you,hey?
“Anything you wish to” she replied, chuckling.
“Leave! And make you do the right thing” Peyton turned to Mika and said.
“Thank you so much,ma..sir…I promise this won’t repeat itself again” she said.
“Just leave! Nolan yelled.
Immediately she left,he grabbed Peyton and pinned her to the desk.
“You said I should do anything I wish to do with you” Nolan smirked, staring deep into his baby’s eyes.
They are so cute and worth dying for.
“Peyton threw her gaze in the air,avoiding eye contact.
“Hey,look at me,candy heart” Nolan said,pulling her cheeks to face him.
“Let me go! She said.
“Why? But you said I should do whatever I wish to do with you” Nolan smirked.
She rolled eyes at him.
“Do that again,I love it” he smirked again.
Peyton rolled them again unintendedly.
“Such a stubborn woman” Nolan chuckled and kissed her lips,shortly.
“We should go check out your dress” he said and went back to his seat.
Peyton nodded.
He arranged the files back in order before shutting down his computer.
He held Peyton’s hand and they both walked out of the office.
NEXT DAY????HAEUNDAE BEACH,BUSAN.
Nolan drove his family to the beach.
He parked the car where others were parked too,and everyone got out.
They brought out everything they carried for the beach. Including beach balls and some other games.
“Hmmm” Peyton breathed in the cool breeze as the wind blew her hair. Making her look se-xy and hot.
She was wearing a bikini, but wore a long light and transparent jacket.
Nolan never took his eyes off her.
He’s always grateful to God for making them cross paths.
She isn’t just damn beautiful, she’s the sweetest and kindest person,she’s stubborn also.
But that’s what makes Nolan love her even more.
Nora was wearing the same thing.
The both of them planned on twinning.
The duo(Nolan and Gray sat back watching the wonderful gifts that God has given them.
Peyton and Nora were inside the water, following the waves.
They would stop at some point, splash water on each other then burst out laughing.
They were just acting like babies on the beach.
“Common, girls. Games time” Alejandro shouted to their hearing.
They walked out of the water and joined the others.
First,they played volleyball.
Brenda and her husband won!
It was actually a couple game. So they won!
Second, Nolan, Gray and Alejandro went surfing. Nolan won in that one.
He was so good at it that no one could beat him.
Third,they played basketball and of course, Gray and Nora won! In that one.
Peyton didn’t want to play any game. She just sat back relaxing and enjoying her snacks.
After they were done playing the games and eating.
They returned back to the water, this time,all of them.
Peyton and Nora resumed their play as they kept following the waves and splashing water on themselves.
Gray went closer to where Nora was standing, facing the waters.
He knelt down behind her and signaled Peyton to make her turn.
She did so by scooping the water and splashing it again on her.
“What….. That was a massive splash! She screamed and was about fetching hers to return it back to Pey when she saw Gray kneeling on one knee.
“Why are…..
“Let’s start a future, me and you.
“I want to grow old by your side,baby. With or without children.
“Let’s make memories together, sweet and lovely memories”
“I want to see your cute and adorable face every day I wake up”
“Let us spend the rest of our lives together, help each walk when we get too old to walk on our own”
“Will you marry me? He popped the question.
“Ahhh! Nora screamed and broke into tears.
She never saw it coming. Like,Gray knows very well that her womb can’t carry children yet,he’s doing this?
Though, he had told her earlier that he loves her whether or not she can bear children, but she wasn’t sure if he really meant it.
“I will marry youuuuuu” she screamed and doubled the”u”.
“She said yes! Oh my gawd! She f*cking said yes” Gray screamed out loud and wore her the ring.
“Thank you,baby. I love you forever! He screamed and slammed his lips on hers.
“This is the best day of my life…. Whoooooo” Nora screamed.
Splashing water everywhere.
Peyton didn’t hesitate to do same. Everyone was just splashing water everywhere.
Making it look like it was raining.
Showers of blessings!!!!
