Chapter 301: The wedding


    Lucas and Joel stuffed their hands into their pockets as they looked at their wives.


    ''''We were just apanying Paige'''' Carlien said as she stepped back, pursing her lips.


    ''''Is this what you wanted the club for?'''' Joel asked Mirabel.


    ''''You knew about this already?'''' Mirabel asked.


    ''''Do you think Mac would have given the club to you without telling me?'''' Joel asked back.


    ''''Well, it was just for a little fun, right?'''' Mirabel said.


    ''''Looks like everyone knows someone here'''' Leslie said as he looked at Lisa. He had a knowing gaze as he stared at her and she flushed.


    ''''Pa'''' Andy stepped forward and pulled Pa into a tight hug.


    It was now everyone''s turn to look at them.


    ''''When did you two get together? Pa, you sly fox, you didn''t even tell me first'''' Lisa asked.


    ''''Well, it just turned out that way''''


    ''''We started dating today''''


    ''''Wait, I remember you'''' Paige said and Jordan pulled her closer to himself, ''''Jordan, don''t you remember him? He was the guy who gave the letter to Pa that day we reunited''''


    ''''Yes, I found out today when we met, but, I still haven''t punished you yet for what you did'''' Jordan said and Paige looked at the men at the pole and shouted.


    ''''Hey, all of you, get lost''''


    The men stopped dancing when Lisa turned off the music by her side. They looked at the people inside and went out when the gazes of the men became sharp.


    ''So, you two are now together? Whoa, what a fated meeting it was then'''' Paige said.


    ''''''Why did you even start something like this?'''' Lucas asked.


    ''''Right, I almost forgot to ask'''' Jordan asked.


    ''''Well you went to have a party with women. I was jealous'''' Paige said.


    ''''There was no single woman there. ask Joel'''' Jordan exined.


    ''''It was just the five of us'''' Joel added.


    ''''Oh, then, I went overboard. Sorry'''' Paige said and kissed Jordan.


    ''''Well, I guess I can leave now. I have a date with my boyfriend but I couldn''t go because I was worried about Paige. Now that you are here, I am leaving'''' Jessi said and picked her bag.


    [PS: Who wants a story of Jessi. I am thinking of writing about her]


    ''Boyfriend? When did you get a boyfriend?'''' Jordan asked and held her hand.


    ''''Big brother, you are not thinking of asking me to bring him to you, right?''''


    ''''''I am thinking of that'''' Jordan replied.


    ''''Big Brother, seriously? Which era are we in? Don''t worry, we are just dating not getting married'''' Jessi said and walked away.


    Everyone looked at her and gasped. They watched her leave charismatically.


    ''''Wow, Jessi is so damn savage'''' Lucas said.


    ''''The entertainment industry is turning Jessi into a different person'''' Jordan frowned, ''should I stop backing her up?''''


    ''''She is perfect for the industry. She is arrogant and knows how to put people in their ces. I think I like just how Jessi is. Do you remember that time when she attended the award ceremony and the reporter asked whom she was dating currently?'''' Paige reminisced on that day.


    ''''Her answer gave me goosebumps. I was flustered in ce of the reporter'''' Mirabel added.


    ''''What answer did she give?'''' Pa asked.


    Carlien flipped her hair back and gave them a look that Jessi always puts on as she mimicked her, ''''I hear reports about my dating life everyday but, I am yet to even meet those men in real life''''


    ''''Whoa, Jessi looked like a different person when she said that'''' Mirabel added.


    ''''She is so cool'''' Pa found herself fangirling over Jessi.


    Joel picked one of the drinks and opened it saying, ''''since we are here, let''s have the party here''''


    ''''That''s right'''' Leslie said and looked at Lisa. They hadn''t spoken to each other since that day. Things were a little awkward between them.


    Everyone sat around the table in pairs leaving Leslie and Lisa. They too sat together but none spoke to the other. They engaged in little talks with the others.


    ...


    Wedding day.


    Lisa and Jessi stood outside with Paige''s father and Jordan''s father. They were at the door receiving guests that had just arrived.


    All the dresses that thedies wore were sponsored by J collections and they were the most beautiful and expensive dresses that were custom made for them alone and the jewellery and other essories came from Calia''s collections.


    The venue was of the wedding was at a high end hotel with just a few guests attending but it was deemed to be the wedding of the century. This was because, Jordan''ste mother always wanted him to have such kind of wedding, so they were doing it in honour of her. she was a wedding nner who had dreamed of nning her son''s wedding but couldn''t.


    Lisa''s dress was a baroness bridal midi dress, paired with shoes and a matching pair of ne from Calia collections. She looked pretty in a long dress and it fitted her very well.


    Jessi wore a beautifully delicate gown, with boning in the bodice, fun and full tulle skirt and a 3D applique on the shoulders. It matched well with her jewellery. It looked ordinary but the little details put into it made it look unique coupled with the tiara bun that Lisa made on her hair. She stood next to her father and Paige''s father with Lisa.


    As they were receiving the guests. Three cars pulled over and two men got down and personally opened the doors for their wives. The women stepped out with the help of the men while two bodyguards pulled two baby carriers out from the other side of the cars. The babies were the children of Maria and Carlien whom were about a year and half old.


    The moment they stepped out of the car, they attracted a lot of gazes not just because of their beauty, but the gowns and essories that they wore.


    Maria wore one of Mona Lisa''s collections which was a remake of the ''20XX Russian Glory'' couture which she had obtained a patent right on. It was a light milky, off shoulder fall gown with a bronze coloured ne that fell to her cleavage. Ad-Din wore a simr colour tuxedo to match with Maria''s gown.


    Calia''s gown which was equally from Mona Lisa''s collections was a light milky pink tted with one hand off shoulder. The covering of the one shoulder was a flowery designed mashed up butterfly which looked like it was flying as she walked. She stood next to Kobby who also wore a simr tuxedo matching hers.


    Maria looked at the hotel and smiled, she turned to Ad-Din and said to him, ''''it''s finally happening. The wedding that took forever to happen''''


    ''''I know, right?'''' Ad-Din replied and held her hand as they walked inside.


    ''''Kobby, let''s go'''' Calia said and they also went following Maria and Ad-Din.


    Walking inside hand by hand with the babies behind them, they went straight to offer their greetings to Paige and Jordan''s fathers. They also chatted with Jessi and she introduced them to Lisa before showing them to Jordan and Paige''s dressing rooms.


    Paige''s dressing room.


    Pa sat down quietly as the makeup artiste did her makeup. She was nervous and held unto Carlien''s hand tightly.


    ''''Carly, was this how nervous you were during the wedding? I am so nervous''''


    ''''Oh, now you know how Mira and I felt that day. You even had the guts to elope with Jordan on our wedding day''''


    ''''I apologise once again''''


    ''''How can you be so apologetic on your wedding day?''''


    ''''I know, right? Beats me''''


    Paige turned and saw Maria and Calia at the door and she eximed excitedly, ''''Maria, Calia. Gosh, you look so beautiful''''


    ''''Well, hello to you too'''' Maria said as they went inside to sit on the bed.


    ''''Maria, hold my hand, I am so nervous and Carlien isn''t helping me at all'''' Paige said.


    ''''Silly girl. Hi, Carly'''' Maria hugged Carlien.


    ''''Hi, Maria. Hi, Calia''''


    ''''Hi, Carly'''' Calia replied and also hugged her.


    ''''Why aren''t you dressed?'''' Maria asked Carlien.


    ''''I couldn''t leave this stubborn girl all by herself. Mira and another friend are gone to change and get their makeup down'''' Carlien exined.


    ''''Hurry, we will take over from here'''' Calia said to Carlien.


    ''''Alright, I will go and get changed. Let''s meet in the hall since the ceremony will begin shortly.


    ''''Sure'''' Maria held Paige''s hand after Carlien left.


    ''''I heard you did somethingst night'''' Calia said to Paige.


    ''''Oh that. It was a prank gone wrong'''' Paige said.


    ''''You never cease to amaze me. Here, I brought you something special. It will fit with your dress. I spent two days designing this ne'''' Calia handed the t medium size box to Paige.


    ''''Calia, you are so sweet. Thanks very much''''


    ''''It is your big day. You need to look the most beautiful'''' Calia said to her.


    Paige opened the box and it contained a pair of handmade milky grey colour rhinestone romantic white and its earrings inclusive.ll
