Leah's POV
I woke up the kids already and I told them to be a little faster. Since I only have an hour until my parents arrive.
I got ready myself and quickly made breakfast.
(that's what she's wearing🔝)
I finished, the house help thankfully opened all the curtains already.
Luca came down the stairs already dressed.
"You're going already?" I asked taking water from the fridge.
"I was thinking of going and seeing how things are going in the company" he explained.
"Okay," I nodded.
"Are you going anywhere?" he asked, "After dropping the kids off, I'm going to get my parents at the airport" I said before drinking some water.
"Are you going to tell them?" he asked walking towards me.
I shrugged, "Maybe, I'll think about when. Maybe today or tomorrow" I explained.
"Okay, I'm going now," he said before giving a brief kiss.
"I'll call you to tell you when I'll be back," I said once we pulled away.
"No problem," he nodded.
------------
After Luca left the kids came down and started with their breakfast.
"Mommy, why did we have to be faster today?" Bella asked looking up at me and putting her sandwich down.
"Because I have to catch my parents from the airport today" I smiled looking at her.
"You have a mommy and daddy?" Bella's eyes widened.
I chuckled.
"Yes, Bella. I do."
"That's cool" She smiled back at me.
"Yes, very. Are you guys done?" I asked.
"Waait!" Bella picked up her sandwich to resume eating it.
"Yeah, beside Bella we're done" Gabriel looked at me.
I nodded, "Good."
I stood up to get my phone from the kitchen.
"I really have to stop leaving my phone at random places" I uttered to myself picking up it phone from the counter.
Sydney's POV
I figured out there's a room in the Helco Estate that holds all the files about it.
And I...Need to get there.
The pre-wedding party sucked as shit if you were wondering.
I had to keep smiling, and people kept congratulating myself and Antonio.
Poor people wasted their words.
Then I had to be close to Antonio which was typically hell.
He kept telling me how to stand, walk, talk. Like...he's not my kindergarten teacher! And I'm not a child!
And it's not like he was kindly asking me, he ordered it.
I also had to lie to the 200, or more, guests in the Bride speech.
It's not like I had the liberty of what to say. Antonio and his father had a speech printed out for me.
The speech was so fucking sappy.
It was about how I felt, how I'm 'so happy' to be joined into a 'wonderful' family and that Antonio 'is something out of a dream'.
Like...really? A dream?
More of a nightmare.
I think you can see how it sucked by now.
I've been trying to play cool for the last few days since Antonio and his father have been getting suspicious of me lately.
Oh yeah, and can you believe that that son of a bitch Giovani (Antonio's father) told me to drop out of my law course!
According to him, it's unnecessary and a waste of time.
Like...how dare he?
I spent the last 6 years of my life studying that shit all day and night. I sometimes spent days without sleep because of studying.
And now he thinks I can just drop it off as though it was complete trash?
No way.
I obviously couldn't say that to his face, as much as I wanted to.
So I told him I did drop out, but I didn't.
I have 3 days to the wedding date. And time is running faster than it fucking should.
I was about to leave my room when I got an email on my phone.
I opened it.
Andrew? Okay.
I know I've given him the information I've acquired 'till now but he doesn't send anything back.
I just hope it's good news.
I pressed on it.
And I read:
I understand that you've told me about your difficulties in getting the pieces of information which does set back the plan.
I know this wasn't on the original plan, but I think it's best that we attack on the wedding itself, right now, with the information set back, it's all we can do.
I know it sounds concerning but I promise I'll attack before Antonio and you get married.
But please if you can get the information and send it as fast as possible, it would be very helpful and help quicken the process.
Contact me if you need anything.
Yours sincerely,
Andrew
I bit my bottom lip. This was risky, if he's just one minute late I could be married to Antonio.
But it made sense, even if I sent the blueprint of the house now. It'd still take time to make a plan for it.
I sighed, I have to get those blueprints.
I opened the four and looked left and right. No one.
It's all clear. I walked out.
And tried my best to act casual as I walked down the hallway.
I had to wait for the house to be empty to do this.
Antonio and his father were out for a meeting, Sofia had gone to buy some new stuff for the house.
I had given the excuse that I was sick with flu and couldn't go shopping with Sofia.
I'm running out of excuses okay! So I had to go with that.
She believed it and told me that if I needed anything like medicine or medical assistance, I could call her.
Sofia is still so nice, that it still makes me feel guilty about this all.
I finally opened the door of the room.
I walked in. And it truly was a room with files.
"I should be able to find the construction file" I whispered to myself.
---------------
Seconds turn into minutes as I try to find the construction file.
"Finally" I sighed when I pulled it out.
I quickly filled through it and the blueprint fell out.
I picked it up quickly, set it on the table flat and took out my phone to take a picture.
Before I could, someone switched on the lights.
"What are you doing here, Ana?" the voice was recognisable...
Antonio!
Leah's POV
After dropping the kids at school I quickly drove to the airport.
When I arrived I checked my phone as I opened my door to get out.
There were no messages from my mom thankfully.
I walked in and the bustling sound of people talking, moving suitcases and airport announcements engulfed the space.
I walked to the receiving flight's waiting area.
I looked at the flight statuses, and my parent's flight hadn't landed yet.
I got a notification on my phone.
I smiled.
Oooo, who is it?
Luca.
Ooo, what does it say?
Stop saying oooo.
But you just said it
I don't care
I tapped on it
Zach:
How are things?
I started typing.
Me:
Fine, my parent's flight hasn't landed yet. So I'm waiting. How are you?
Zach:
Fine, there isn't much, I'm about to go to a meeting that's all.
I quickly looked up and saw that my parent's flight landed.
Me:
Kk, my parents' plane just landed. See you later👋
I switched off my phone when I saw the doors open.
