*Amilea's P.O.V.*

Tuesday, September 9
We arrived to the international airport in Vegas around six in the evening, after going through baggage claim we were spotted by Blu's security team and escorted to our transportation vehicle which was a beautiful all black Mercedes MayBach town car, I could live in this car for the entire trip.

We drove straight across the strip to see the city along the sunset, I couldn't wait to see the hotel we would be staying in. I heard the MGM is nice, so is Cesar's Palace... ooh maybe the royal Bellagio?! I masked my excitement when we soon passed all three choices, now I'm confused. Are we not staying on the strip?

"Where are we staying?" I asked him, Blu grabbed my hand into his and kissed the back of my hand he looked at me; smiled softly against my hand

"To my house." He said. My jaw dropped instantly, how rich is this man?

"Your house?" I asked dumbfounded. He chuckled lightly and released my hand from his grasp

"Wait until we get there." He said. His sister rode behind us in another town car, she rarely spoke, well she rarely spoke to me. This was going to be my first official meet with her and she didn't even care to acknowledge me.

"Hey, do you think your sister likes me?" I asked him, he looked confused then shrugged his shoulders

"She didn't appear rude did she?" He asked me concerned

"No, she didn't even say two words to me. I noticed she was on the phone, but not the whole flight..." I said to him

"Bianca works twenty four/seven, she doesn't respond well to Society... I'm sure it wasn't intentional." He defended his blood

"Does she know that we're in a relationship? I'm not like a side chick type of person?" I asked him

"Amelia, please. Don't concentrate on how my family feels about you... It's just us two, right?" He asked me

"Yeah, it's just us two." I said to him.

*Bianca's P.O.V.*

I was escorted to my bedroom by the housekeeper, Raven. She gave me a note and told me it was sent to the house this morning along with a large rectangular box with a black bow on it. I opened the envelope and revealed a love card with hearts all over it. The card read:

Beautiful, I won't be able to see you this weekend. In Hong Kong for a conference. I hope this keeps you company...

I threw the card on the bed and opened the box. I gasped in shock and smiled at the gift, a new Chanel bag. I can add it to the collection of the other seven he has bought me for when he stands me up.

"Alexa, call Hubby..." I commanded the Alexa echo in my room

Dial tone. Then it rings four times...

"Baby?" He answered

"How could you stand me up in Vegas?!" I asked him

"It wasn't intentional, but this meeting was long overdue. It was the only time ambassador Leung had available before he left for New Zealand. I had the flyer miles so I needed to be here. This could open up another clinic" he tried to explain but I could care less about work and more about our soon to be marriage

"Is this what I have to look forward too while being your new wife? Because I can stay in New York with my family for the same anxiety." I said to him and he sighed

"Baby, I'm doing this for us. I'm not country club rich, I'm just doctor rich... that's not enough for me." He said

"But I don't care about the money, you know this..." I told him
