Chapter 45: Chapter 45
At the castle in Edinburgh
Derek: what the heck is wrong with you Adrian? Are you out of your mind?
Adrian : just let me be, it's none of your business
Derek: it's all of my business because Blue is involved
Adrian : well if you want Blue, just have her
Derek: I never said that
Adrian : but that's what you want right. Just go for it
Derek hit the wall with his fist and yelled
Derek : ahhhh. You idiot, you're hurting Blue
Adrian : hurting? Did you just say hurting? She doesn't even love me
Derek: yes she does, Adrian she does
Adrian : you're crazy
Then he sat down on his cushion and leaned on it
Derek : why are you like this?
Adrian : they made me like this. Elaine, Theodora and Blue, they made me like this. What's the essence of going after love when love is at your door?
Derek: so that's why you want to love Gladys too? Huh?
He didn't reply
Derek: don't do this man
Adrian : please leave
Derek : what
Adrian : I said leave
Derek : you're sending me out of your damn house
Adrian stood up and glared at him
Adrian : get out
Derek moved backwards
Derek : okay okay okay, I'm leaving your house now
He turned and left the prince.
He got out of the chamber and was about going out when he changed his mind and took a turn heading towards Gladys chambers
*Beachhouse*
Derek parked his car and quickly came outside.
He ran to the front door and banged on it
Audrey ran out to see who wanted to break their door
Audrey : Derek?
Derek: Audrey open the door now
She briskly opened it and he came inside immediately
Audrey : how did you find.....
Derek: where's Blue?
He said panting heavily
Audrey: she's upstairs and why are you in a hurry
Derek: let's go
He held her hand and they ran upstairs
Derek : which room
Audrey : that one
They went towards it and opened the door.
Cindy was trimming Blue's nails
Blue : Derek
Derek: Blue
She ran up and hugged him
Derek : where's your mom?
Blue : she's still at work, why?
Derek : girls, get your things ready. We're leaving?
Girls : why
They said it at the same time
Derek breathed in and out
Derek: your lives are at stake. Gladys is coming for you Blue. She knows you're here and don't want you to temper with her wedding. She's sent her thugs to get you
Girls: what?
Derek: why are you girls just saying everything at the same time
Girls: forget it!
The three girls immediately began to pack whatever they couldn't do without.
They were doing it so hurriedly
Blue : oh no, my mother's things
Audrey : quick go get them already
Blue dashed off to her mother's room. Since she was alone, she turned everything into mini size and kept them into one briefcase.
She took the briefcase with her to her room
Derek : I'll keep it in the car
He took it and left with it. He was in such a hurry that he didn't reason why her mother's things were in a briefcase like they were files.
Cindy: I can't find some of my things Blue
Audrey : I can't find my makeup bag.
She sighed
Blue : go downstairs and try to get some of my mother's important things that you know
I'll fix this issue and find your things
Cindy: but how will you....
Audrey : leave her, she has magic
Cindy covered Audrey's mouth and whispered
Cindy: someone is going to hear you
Audrey bit her palm and she withdrew it immediately
Cindy : ouch
Blue : you guys go already
They left and Blue closed the door. She did exactly what she did in her mother's room and came out with a luggage.
They hurried into Derek's car and he zoomed off to the bakery
That day wasn't a working day but ma'am Nina had gone there to get something she forgot the previous day.
They saw her about taking a taxi and they took her instead and Derek explained what he overhead Gladys saying
Blue and her mother were to be shot dead that very day.
Blue sighed and sat back wondering why Gladys hates her that much
Not that she was even a competition to her.
That very day at night the thugs came but didn't see Blue and her mother.
They went back and said they're return the next day until they find them and kill them
In Adrian's lineage, whenever a lady is pregnant for the prince or king, he must make her his wife.
As you've guessed already, Gladys is pregnant for Adrian.
And today is their wedding day
Priest:......... if anyone has anything to say against the couple and doesn't want them to get married should stand up and testify or remain silent forever
Gladys was just smiling because she knew nothing could stop them.
Adrian looked so handsome in his black tux.
The priest repeated his line and when no one responded, he wanted to proceed into the next stage but a voice stopped them
Derek: this wedding cannot hold
Everyone looked to his direction including the bride and groom
Derek began to walk towards them
The guards ran and surrounded the couple
Priest: what is your testimony young man
Derek : she's pinning Prince Adrian down with a pregnancy that's not his
Everyone in the chapel made sounds of surprise and confusion
Derek : Princess Gladys pregnancy is mine
The chapel was thrown into pandemonium.
Adrian looked at Gladys and back at Derek.
Gladys was shocked and confused
Gladys : no no, he's lying. Don't listen to him Prince.
Adrian knew the kind of friend he had, he angrily stormed towards him and punched him so hard in the mouth
Adrian : how dare you?
He gave him another punch and he staggered back and held his jaw.
His lips were torn already
Gladys tried to move to Adrian but he pushed her away and she fell.
Everyone began to run out of the chapel.
The prince left and some guards followed him.
Not ordinary guards though.
Hired assassins by Oliver Likes, Gladys former fiancee before she met Adrian.
They blocked him on the way to get his car and abducted him.
They took him to the warehouse and tortured him for days and finally wanted to kill him before the lady showed up
*End Of Flashback*
The lady took him to a cottage and laid him on a bed.
The room was bright so he could finally see her face.
He turned and faced her.
She removed her veil and he saw her perfectly
Prince Adrian : OMG, Blue!
She smirked, turned and left the room banging the door behind her
