Chapter 84
Korina felt like a princess looking in the mirror, yes she was a princess who had finally found prince charming or so she thought.
Her white transparent veil was pulled back on her full well styled afro, her make up was nude as usual extremely flawless, a diamond necklace Jace had got her rested on her neck. Her white gown fitted to her body with a train past the royal long length, it was twelve feet long. Her shoes were actual glass slippers with diamond encrusted stones. Her bouquet of flowers which she didn’t hold yet was of yellow roses, her favorite and it grew to be she and Jace’s favorite.
“Are you ready?” Aunt Dido asked entering the room.
“Yes ma.” Korina replied.
“Awwn… Look at my baby.” Her eyes welled with tears seeing how Korina looked dazzling. She walked over to her and pulled her into a hug, “You look marvelous.”
“Thank you Aunt.” Korina was near tears too, “Thank you.”
Daniella and Anne entered the room, they both wore strapless nude mermaid gowns.
“Bestie!” They squealed excitedly and ran up to Korina hugging her.
“Don’t ruin my outfit please and my make up.” She said but they didn’t budge, they only hugged her tighter.
“Okay, that’s enough girls.” Aunt Dido said, “Let’s go, Jace is getting impatient.”
“Mum.” Daniella rolled her eyes, “He ain’t even out yet.”
“I know but we got to get ready.” She told the girls and held Korina’s hand, “Let’s go get you married.”
“Cold feet?” Ade asked his best friend as he watched him pace up and down the room, “Calm down.”
“No, it ain’t cold feet and you know it.” Jace said harshly, “Russo can be here, could be here to jeopardize everything. If he comes and gets to her, it’s all over man.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“He won’t.” Ade walked over to Jace, “We got the place heavily guarded and your wedding is top secret and secure, nothing would happen.”
“I hope so.” He sighed, “I hope nothing goes wrong I can’t lose her.”
“But you have to tell her after the wedding.”
“I can’t do that.” Jace shook his head, “I can’t.”
“You can’t keep it away from he.” He said sternly, “You have to tell her what happened and by then she would be married to you.”
“I would try.” He bowed his head, “It’s hard you know, it wasn’t my fault.”
“Of course it wasn’t.” His best friend comforted him, “Now let’s go and get you hitched Jace lander or should I say Daruis Alec Giovanni.” He winked.
“You know she found the name Darius really sexy, that’s what she mo…”
“Okay, enough, I don’t need to know.” Ade cringed, “let’s go they are waiting already.”
Jace nodded and followed his best friend out off the room, he prayed that he could get hitched without an hitch.
Russo walked through the hallways trying to locate the room of the bride, it wasn’t really easy getting past the guards and into the house and he hoped he’d find it soon.
He began searching for the room and finally located it on the second floor of the mansion, he got in and saw Korina there alone, no one was in sight, perfect.
Korina was fixing herself up, aunt Dido and her friends had left to wait outside for her.
“Hello, we meet again.” She jumped at the voice and turned around to see a person in her room dressed in black with a mask covering half of his face.
“Who are you?” Korina asked trying not to get alarmed, “What are you doing here?”
The man pulled the mask down and her face contorted in shock.
“Russo?!” She gasped, “What are you doing here?” She asked him, “I would scream and call for them.”
“You would do no such thing.” He pulled out a gun and aimed at her, “I am here not to hurt you but to let you know a secret of Jace’s that he has kept from you.”
“What?” She laughed, “That he is Darius Alec Giovanni? I know that already.”
“Not that idiot.” He gritted.
“Jace hasn’t kept anything from me so whatever you are going to say now is a fucking lie, so get out!”
Russo laughed sickly, “Oh, this is going to be fun, watching your reaction when you find out the truth.”
“Russo I want you to leave, you are nothing but bad news and a scoundrel.” Korina spat, “And you know nothing than to speak bad of Jace.”
“I think I am gonna have to sit down for this one.” He laughed heartily and went over to take a seat on the bed still pointing the gun at her..
“First of all.” He said, “You look ravishing in that dress.” He smirked.
“Get out Russo!” She told him harshly.
“Don’t you wanna hear what I have to say?” He asked.
“I don’t.”
“It’s about your dead mother.”
“You have no right to talk about her.” She growled, “Get out.”
“Wanna know how she died?” He was getting on her nerves now.
“Russo stop it!” She screamed.
“Your beloved Jace lander or should I say Darius Alec Giovanni? Whatever name he wants to bear.” He rolled his eyes.
“Shut up Russo.”
“He killed her.” Russo said, “He killed your mother.”
