The week leading up to Sasha's wedding unfurled with anticipation and sorrow. Eleganteafford's withdrawal from the wedding planning had cast a shadow over the joyous occasion, leaving Sasha heartbroken and her family scrambling to salvage the event. Despite the disappointment, Sasha, her brother Zack, and her fiancé Raghav forged ahead, placing their trust in Steven Enterprise to ensure a memorable day.
Three days before the wedding, tension mounted as the trio rushed into Steven Enterprise's office, only to be met with apologies from Naira, the CEO. Zack's clenched jaw betrayed his disdain as Naira recommended Eleganteafford to take over, leaving him seething at the thought of Olivia's involvement in his sister's wedding.
On the day of the wedding, emotions ran high as Zack ascended the stairs to Sasha's room, his footsteps echoing in the empty hallway. Entering the room, his eyes fell upon Olivia, a vision of beauty amidst the chaos. Her dress flowed like silk, accentuating her radiant smile, though her eyes held a glimmer of sadness beneath the façade. Zack's breath caught in his throat, memories of their past flooding his mind, but he quickly averted his gaze and turned to his sister, enveloping her in a tight embrace.
"Are you okay, Sasha?" Zack's voice was filled with concern as he held his sister, his arms a reassuring presence around her.
Sasha nodded, tears glistening in her eyes. "I'm trying to be," she whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "But it's hard knowing Olivia won't be here to see me walk down the aisle."
Zack's heart twisted with guilt as he glanced at Olivia, his emotions in turmoil. "I'm sorry, Sasha," he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. "I'll make it right, I promise."
Their family soon joined them, tears mingling with laughter as they captured precious moments before the ceremony. Zack's heart twisted with regret as he watched Olivia flit around the room, her cheerful demeanour masking the pain he knew lurked within.
"Zack, it's good to see you," Olivia's voice was warm, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes as she hugged him tightly.
Zack returned the embrace, his heart heavy with unresolved emotions. "You too, Olivia," he replied softly, his voice tinged with regret.
As the ceremony commenced, Zack's mind drifted back to his wedding day with Olivia, a bittersweet memory that haunted him still. Vows exchanged, promises made, Zack's gaze flickered to Olivia, a silent apology lingering on his lips.
"I remember our wedding day," Olivia's voice was barely a whisper as she stood beside Zack, her eyes fixed on the bride and groom. "We were so in love, weren't we?"
Zack's heart clenched at the memory, his chest tight with regret. "We were," he admitted, his voice thick with emotion. "And I'm sorry for everything that happened, Olivia. I wish things could have been different."
The reception buzzed with excitement as the newlyweds took to the dance floor, but Zack's attention was drawn to Olivia, her tears glistening in the dim light. His fists clenched with a mixture of anger and longing as he watched Carter, Olivia's new partner, steal a kiss.
"Zack, can we talk?" Olivia's voice was hesitant as she approached him, her eyes searching his face for answers.
Zack nodded, his jaw clenched with tension. "Fine," he replied curtly, his tone laced with bitterness. "But make it quick."
As the evening wore on, the time came for the bouquet toss, and to everyone's surprise, it landed in Olivia's arms effortlessly. Sasha beamed with joy, but Zack's rage simmered just beneath the surface, threatening to boil over.
As the festivities drew to a close and Sasha and Raghav departed for their honeymoon, Zack seized his opportunity to confront Olivia. Dragging her into a darkened room, he pinned her against the wall, his anger palpable as he demanded to meet his daughter, Zivia.
Olivia's heart pounded in her chest as fear consumed her, the shadows of her past looming large in her mind. "Please, Zack," she pleaded, her voice trembling with emotion. "Don't take her away from me."
Zack's grip tightened, and his features twisted with rage and regret. "I won't," he vowed, his voice a low growl. "But she deserves to know the truth."
With a heavy heart, Olivia agreed to meet Zack the next day, her mind swirling with fear and uncertainty. As they parted ways, the weight of their shared past hung heavy in the air, casting a long shadow over the fragile hope that flickered within their hearts
