Owen’s Engagagement

Book:Destined Love Published:2024-5-1

Owen’s Dad was sitting on a chair in the first row accompanied by his butler and it is visible on his face that he was not happy at all.
The moment Owen arrived at the church, media people started covering his live news and it was shown on all the news channels and big advertisement TVs throughout the city.
Nancy’s POV
We were shopping when suddenly Owen’s marriage live broadcast started on all the TVs in the mall. I don’t know why I felt hurt, I don’t know why I am feeling this unknown pain. I thought I was trying to avoid his marriage because of his disgusting attitude but now it seems different.
Owen was standing on the stage with a bright smile, seemed like he was very happy, he was wearing a tux hugging his body and he was looking amazingly handsome, and I am feeling disappointed about it and it’s completely weird.
I saw Kara walking on the aisle with her Dad hand in hand and she was looking beautiful. ‘They were a perfect couple’ ‘made for each other’ ‘couple made in heaven’ were the comments people started giving who were passing us watching TV. I felt like crying, I wanted to run away from all these.
I composed myself and said to Riya ” Riya can we go home? I am feeling tired” she agreed and said “sure sweety, we will go quickly. I want to watch Mr. Johnson’s live marriage, such a luxury marriage, isn’t it?
I just nodded my head holding my tears.
We reached home and Riya first switched on the TV and I just went straight to my room, and started crying silently. I don’t know why I am feeling this, or maybe I am just missing my parents at the wrong time. I was trying to convince myself that I am just missing my parents and I cried till I slept crying.
Owen’s POV
My eyes were searching for Nancy all the time. I spotted Malcolm and for the first time in my life I felt happy to see him thinking that she would be sitting next to him but she was not there.
I felt a little disappointed that she didn’t come and my mind was filled with questions about why she didn’t come. Is she fine? Did something happen to her? Or she can’t see me getting married to someone else immediately. My subconscious mind snapped at me saying “she doesn’t even like you, why can’t she see you getting married “and I again felt upset.
I made a to-do note to go to her home tonight and check and probably I will also have a peaceful sleep, holding her tightly in my arms.
Owen’s POV
I saw Kara walking on the aisle in a white gown and I suddenly felt how good it would be if it was Nancy. She will look like an angel who came directly from heaven for me.
I was pulled out of thought when I heard Mr. Miller call my name and I saw Kara standing in front of me. Mr. Miller passed her hand in my hand I took her hand in my hand and made her stand next to me and I had only one statement in my mind “let’s began the game”
The happiness of success was pasted on Kara and Mr. Miller’s face, which I will make fade away in some time.
Before the priest started to take our vows, I took the mic and said “hello! Everyone, first of all, thank you for coming today, pulling out your precious time. As you all know today I am getting married to Miss Kara Miller so before we begin our marriage, I want to give a surprise to my would-be wife” and saying that I looked at Kara and she was smiling shyly.
I waved to Zack to get ready, and behind us fell a white screen but before we started the play I said “so I would like to share a very short story with all my guests and my dear reporters. So I took over my Dad’s business around five years back and I was working hard to grow my business but I was not aware of some dirty business tricks” while saying these when I looked at Kara and Mr. Miller I can see that now their smiles are fading away slowly.
Kara came to me and whispered in my ears “what are you doing Owen, let’s get married first” she was trying to hold her fake smile. I smiled at her gently and said “of course Kara, but first, let me give my surprise” and again I turned to my guests and continued.
“So first let me tell you why I am getting married to Miss Kara, it’s because she claimed that I took her virginity four years back when I was drunk one night and I should be responsible for it” everyone in the church was shocked and some were glaring at me angrily. I continued “I had made a promise to my Mom that I would never force any girl, so when I was blamed about forcefully taking Kara’s virginity I agreed to marry her but little I know that it was all trap for me and I fell into it, I had my doubts so I started the investigation and I would like to share the investigation reports with all who are present here”. I pointed to Zack and he started the PPT slides the first photo was an abortion report of Kara which was of five years back then I again turned to my audience and said “as you all can see, it is an abortion report of Miss Kara which is of one year before the incident happened between me and Kara, so I think you all understood what I am trying to say” and then PPT started where Kara was hanging out with different guys and few were her making out photos also.
