Olivia smiled seeing funny messages from Charl and both were cloud nine , she walked down stairs to find Morgan and Lyla eating breakfast. She walked past them and headed to the kitchen and cooked her favourate pasta while speaking to Charl through video call .
A message popped and she checked it on thoughts of being Jared but she froze instantly ' Hope you got a way , sucker ' with the look she knew it would be William and he was reminding her about the threats he made two nights ago .
She sighed and tried to calm down her nerves when her Father walked inside in a hurry , " Liv " he called and she jerked from her lost misery. " Let's go baby " he added and she wondered like 'where to ' and Robert smiled walking to her .
" Let's go shopping sweety, you'll be getting married tomorrow" Liv gulped as she held her phone tightly , what can she do when one is forcing her to terminate the marriage and the other side fights hard to get her married.
She faked her smile and walked out following her dad , " Let me change paps" she voiced out walking upstairs.
" So is this how it's gonna be " Lyla asked and Robert pinched his forehead , " Lyla stop making it worse for me , you know it was not my choice and i wouldn't want anything bad to happen to both of you and trust me i will also do something for you Morgan but please don't make me into a situation of hating one while you know i tried and failed , just know i will never abandon you two" he reasoned and both kept glaring at him as he sighed releasing the heavy burden he had.
" Am ready dad" Liv's voice came as she walked downstairs and he smiled , both left to where Robert knew.
He drove her to the restaurant , took breakfast then drove to cinema hall watched movie and when it was over they were standing out of the hall. " That jerk made me happy you know " he said and Liv laughed , " Yeah he was funny " she added .
" So where's the next stop " she asked and he smiled , " Shopping dear " and she gasped forgeting about how that was important. " Why " she asked and Robert held her hand as they walked to the car , " Because you're getting married " he said opening the door for her .
He also took his seat after she did and started the car ready to go , " I want to spend this day with you because you won't be waking up on my roof after tomorrow and i would get less time with you , so i wanted to do everything with you today" he said looking straight foward and she just gazed at him. He regretted losing time with her and how he wished he would compansate it .
Yes he was the one she had ever since her mother died even when some misunderstanding rose between them but she knew he had always loved her and he will do so forever , she was his daughter and he was her father , and she would do this just for him , she would endure this all for him .
She turned her gaze and looked foward as their car passed more cars, he was speeding up because he wanted to save time . After sometime they arrived and were welcomed by the assistant and lead directly to a room where they found Nathan sitting while the maids brought more Wedding dresses.
This was supposed to be done by her mother how she wished that she could be alive but here instead her father and soon father in law to be were busy managing her choices .
" Babes " she then heard a voice and she smiled knowing Charl was here . Nathan smiled and offered his hand to Robert while Charl clinged on Olivia's body smilling , jumping like it was her wedding .
" Thanks Nathan " Robert voiced out and Natham nodded turning his gaze to Olivia , " Do you know why i chose her ?" he asked and Robert fell into silence . He never thought about it , why did he choose her in the first place.
" Because she's the replica of her, she's the other thing she left beside the potrait , i wanted to keep my promise i have been escaping for a while " he added and Robert was still dazed , what did he mean by promise, he knew he talking about Ritha but the riddle was kinda tough to solve.
" I will protect her " he added then smiled , walked to Olivia and she smiled a bit , " I will be leaving now but i want you to be ready " he said and she nodded. As if sensing her worries and doubt , " I will protect you " he said making her head raised to face him as he gave her the assurance look and she smiled .
" Thankyou " she said and he sided hug her , patted her hairs and he smiled before walking out , " Am not seen here " Charl shouted and Nathan halted his steps , " Come on pie , i will do something for you later " he said looking at her pouting daughter.
" Make sure you don't forget it " she said and he smiled then left , Robert sighed. He never even once pictured such a situation , that he would be at a mercy of his nemesis and her daughter would be married to his house , the only thing he hoped was he would keep his promise.
They chose the dresses tried different until when she had one of her taste , she wore it and stood before the mirror, how she wished that her husband to be would be here and praise how beautiful she looked and give her lovely kisses but it was her dream imaginations as William will never show up in here , not on his right senses , how she hated that.
" You look beautiful" her Father's voice gave her hope and she smiled but something heavy stucked on her throat making the smile fading in a matter of seconds , how it pained her .
" Just like your mother " he added and she imagined how her mother looked on the wedding dress , she was beautiful ofcourse as she once saw her wedding dress .
" She was more beautiful " she said remembering how mesmerizing her mother was and her eyes welled up on the thoughts of her being there encouraging her and praise her about marriage.
She turned and faced her dad tears thrilling down her cheeks and he walked to her cupped her face and rubbed her tears , " Everything is going to be alright" he said and she embraced him .
Charl came from washroom and a phone beeped , she opened the purse and took a look to see it was Liv's phone , she unlocked and saw a text from unsaved number ' I will make your life miserable if you don't reject the marriage, let's see how about i make your father rot in streets forever' .
Charl gasped on thoughts that someone was threatening her friend , she looked at the number closely and scoffed , " Willy " she sighed anger flooding down her veins , " This damned bastard , you're done for this time " she spoke deleating the text and dialed her dad .
After a talk she walked in to see Liv on her dad's embrace , it was now that it hitted her senses that her best friend was going to spend her entire life with her pyscho brother , he was monster and everybody knew it , if he threatens her like this it means from tomorrow Liv will be living in hell . She was happy that they are now more than friends and happy because she hated Kehlan but did not think about how hard would it be for her bestie to deal With Willy moreover Kehlan .
She cursed and walked to them adding herself into a hug and they took her in . After a small sobbing they started laughing as Charl was one in a million comedy sometimes .
Everything was set for tomorrow and nothing could stop it , it was like fate walking down it's path and it was meant to happen . After shopping , Charl hurriedly back home she had to talk to her father because she won't stand seeing her best friend in pain from that asshole brother , never . While Olivia drove off with her father to other funny places , he was dertemined to spend everybit of the last minutes with her .
The car screeched and stopped before the Robinson's mansion , finally they were home as it was already night. " Dad I love you " she said and he pulled her into embrace again for the hundredth time today .
" I will always be there for you honey , just know that you're not alone , i got you " he reasoned and she smiled closing her eyes still on his embrace , how she wished the moment to last forever but that was also not possible .
They got off and walked inside finding a calming peace as nobody was seen anywhere closer , Robert walked her daughter upstairs to her room and bide her a sweet nights before walking to his room .
Olivia took a shower and strolled herself on bed holding a picture of her mother , " Let the light rise and the dark fall oneday , someone will be there for you " she spoke smiling .
" Tomorrow i will be leaving this house mom, i will be married and am sorry because none of this is happening according to how i dreamt , how i wished to make you happy but i promise i will try my best to be okay mom " she stated tears rolling down her cheeks .
Tomorrow everything is going to be different , from her status, lifestyle and how she was supposed to think , nothing will ever be the same , she prayed for a courageous heart and prayed that everything shall work right.
