Mum's Engagement Party
BRIANNA'S P. O. V
The sound of the alarm rang and I lazily got up. I sat on my bed thinking of what today was then I remembered. I quickly run out of my room and went to my mum's. I knocked and she responded.
"Good morning mum. How is the bride to be doing" I asked happily
"I'm good dear" she replied
"I am so happy" I said
I hugged her tightly
We have been making arrangements for mum and Daniel's engagement ceremony. Everything has been going on well. The ceremony will be happening at Mr Craine's biggest hotel. For the first time, Mr Craine and Daniel have made it known to the public that they are father and son.
Since the ceremony was in the evening, I decided to rest for a while. I started playing with my phone. I suddenly got a notification. I opened it and it read
"THE ADOPTED SON OF THE COUNTRY'S MOST POWERFUL MAN IS SET TO BE ENGAGED TODAY"
I smiled.
I cooked and cleaned up the house with the maids. In late afternoon, beauticians hired by Daniel arrived to help mum get ready. I left the house and went to Mr Craine.
"Hi Daddy" I said
"Hi baby" he replied
I hugged and kissed him. We got ready together after eating and left for the venue. Daddy and I arrived in his latest version of a maybach car. His bodyguards protected us from the media. We entered the place which was decorated beautifully. Anyone will realise that it was a high class ceremony. We started greeting the guests.
"Congratulations Mr Craine on your son's engagement" a guest said
"Thank you very much Mr Brown" Mr Craine replied
"You must be very happy because this is the second time one of your sons is going to get married" Mr Brown said
I looked at Mr Craine's face and realised his facial expression changed. I guess what Mr Brown said reminded him of Andrew.
"I never knew your bodyguard was your son" a woman standing next to Mr Brown said
Mr Craine smiled
We moved away from them after a while.
"Daddy are you alright" I asked
He nodded slightly
"Hello sir, hello Miss Bennett" Dr Jeffrey greeted
"Hello son" Mr Craine replied
"How are you Dr Jeffrey" I asked happily
"I'm good dear. When are you two getting married" he replied and asked
I looked at Mr Craine's face. Mr Craine smiled and shyly looked away. I looked on the ground with saying anything
"Let's talk later Jeff" Mr Craine said
"Alright sir. I never thought Daniel will ever get married before you" Dr Jeffrey said
"Let's say faith decided it" Mr Craine said
We all smiled.
"Thank God I found you here"
We turned and it was Patrick
"Dad, Daniel and Brianna's mother have arrive. Daniel wants you outside" he said
Mr Craine nodded and we went outside.
My mum looked so beautiful. She was wearing a silver gown with simple diamond earrings. Her necklace looked familiar. I looked at Mr Craine and remembered. It was one of the necklaces Mr Craine bought when we attended a charity program months ago. I felt overwhelmed looking at how beautiful and happy my mum looked. I run and hugged her. Daniel hugged his father too.
"Mum you look beautiful" I said
"Thank you dear" she replied
"Hey champ don't start getting emotional" Mr Craine said
I kissed Daniel on his cheek
"Thank you Daniel. Thank you for making my mum happy" I said
I hugged him.
Mr Craine took my mum's hand and Daniel took my hand. We entered the room
"Ladies and gentlemen please welcome the groom and bride to be Daniel Craine and Eunice Bennett" the MC announced
We walked to the front. Mr Craine gave my mum's hand to Daniel. He took it happily.
They walked to their table. Mr Craine took my hand and walked with me too. Soon Daniel took mum's hand walked with her to the center of the room. He went on one knee and brought out a ring case.
I placed my head on Mr Craine's shoulder. He kissed my forehead.
"Eunice, the first time I met you was one of the most sacred moment I will never forget. When I saw you. My heart started beating fast. The first time you smiled to me I lost my breathe and from that day I realised I wouldn't be able to live without you. You have become the most important person in my life. I don't want to live a second without you and our children ( I gasped at what he said. He already consider me his daughter) please do me the honour of being my wife" he said
Mum started crying as she nodded her head in response
"Yes I will be your wife" she finally said
Daniel placed the ring on her finger. We all clapped. Mr Craine and I were the first to congratulate them. I hugged both of them happily.
"Thank you Daniel for your love and care. You have been amazing. You have made my life complete. Thank you for your love, care, patience and understanding. Thank you for accepting me and my flaws" mum said
Daniel kissed my mum's forehead then her lips. I run to mum and looked at her ring. It was a red diamond ring. It looked very expensive.
"Mum it's so beautiful" I whispered
She smiled
"You did very well with the ring" I said to Daniel
He smiled
My friend Antonella walked to me.
"This is really amazing. I am happy that you finally accepted your mum and her boyfriend's relationship" she said
"Thank you Ella for making me realised my mistake" I said
We hugged happily.
"I hope you and Mr Craine get married soon" Ella whispered
I smiled shyly. I looked at Mr Craine. He was busy talking to people. Daniel and my mum danced to a romantic song. Later, we all joined them on the dance floor. The ceremony was amazing. We closed around twelve midnight. Mr Craine and I remained till all the guests left. Mr Craine took me to his penthouse in the hotel.
"Daddy aren't we going home" I asked
"No baby let's spend the night here" he said
I nodded
I went to the washroom to take a shower. He joined me there. He made love to me in the shower and bathed me. He took me to the bedroom and we once again had made love
"Daddy I have something for you" I said
"What is it" he asked
I went for my purse and brought out a gold wrist watch.
"Daddy this is for you" I said
"Wow that's nice thank you but please tell me what is the occasion" he said
I kissed his chest, chin then his neck. He smiled
"Daddy we were not able to celebrate our first anniversary because of everything that was going on so I decided to get you this as a gift and also to thank you for your love and care. My mum and you have made me realised that love is everything" I said
He looked at the watch and smiled. He hugged me tightly.
"Bri baby do you think I stand the chance of being your husband one day" he asked
I smiled and nodded
"Yes Daddy. You are everything I want as a woman. I am the one who is supposed to ask if I stand the chance of being your wife" I said
He stared at me for a while. Without saying anything, he kissed me passionately. He opened my legs, entered me and fucked me hard till we both had our orgasms.
"Brianna I love you" he said
"I love you too Daddy" I replied
He kissed me and I responded.
Daniel and my mum's wedding date was drawing near. Daniel wanted the wedding to be done before my mum's baby bump starts growing. We became very busy. Even though we hired a planner, Daniel wanted me involve because he wanted mum to have her dream wedding.
I went out of my hostel to go shopping with Antonella. We were in the car with my bodyguards. Soon the one driving started driving with tough speed.
"What is going on" I asked
"Ma'am a car is following us" he said
I panicked and called Daniel
"Daniel please someone is following us" I said
"Relax dear. I will deal with it. Give the phone to one of your bodyguards" Daniel said
I gave the phone to the one at the front seat. After talking to Daniel he gave the phone back to me.
"Dear listen to me. Don't panick you I am on my way just go and do your shopping" he said
"Alright Dad" I said
Realisation dawned on me. I called Daniel Dad
"Daniel I-I"
I tried talking but he stopped me
"Relax dear you can call me whatever you want" he said.
I disconnected the call. I looked at Ella. She was smiling
"Ella why are you smiling? Our car is being followed" I said
"You showed your true feelings because you were panicking" she said
"What do you mean" I asked
"Anna you called Mr Daniel Dad. I am very happy that you have accepted him" she said
I hugged her.
We soon arrived at the mall. We came out of the car. The car that was following us also stopped just then Daniel arrived with his team. Daniel pulled the man out of his car.
"Who are you and why are you following my daughter" Daniel asked
I looked at him. He was angry. He was acting like a father defending his daughter.
"Who sent you" Daniel said
Daniel punched him
"Answer me" he shouted
The man silently looked at me. Daniel was about to punch him again
"She is my daughter" the man shouted.
