The Heiress and The Probinsyano

Chapter 39 - Wedding Preparations

With my confirmation, Luke took my hand again and we walked towards the mansion. I noticed that there are few cars parked outside. My eyes widened when I saw Ashton standing on the front door.

"Did you finally say yes, my dear?" Ashton asked me with teasing smile.

"Who am I to decline his generous offer?" I giggled as Luke quickly wrapped his arm around my waist.

"I am so happy for you, my dear. Luke, I will be borrowing your fiancee for now."

"Wait, what are you doing here Ash? You told me on the phone that you are in New York last night."

"I am sorry, dear, but I lied. Come on, we don't have much time," Ashton pulled me away from Luke.

"Go now, princess. I will see you later."

When we are inside the mansion, there are several camera men that are setting up their equipment. It is like they are taking a video of everything that is happening. A man approached me and introduced himself as the one in charge. I recognized him as one of the famous wedding videographer.

Ashton also introduced me to a makeup artist who began fixing my hair.

"Ash, what's really happening?" I asked while I was sitting in front of the large mirror in the masters bedroom.

"You are getting married, my dear. I thought Luke made it clear to you."

"Like now? Wait, what I am going to wear? My shoes? Geez, I am not ready, Ash. I look chubby and ugly and I am not prepared. This is madness" I said in panic.

"No need to worry, you just have to relax. Luke prepared everything for you. He is just worried that you will decline his proposal."

"You know that I love him so much. How can I even say no to him?" I smiled as I remember his words. I am overwhelmed with his confession.

"Because sometimes, you are a stubborn little bitch. Tell me what do you think of this," Ash commanded his staff to get something.

Three men appeared with a beautiful tulle ball gown wedding dress designed with back zipper. The gown is embellished with white and transparent Swarovski crystals with long cathedral train cascading behind.

"Ash, this is beautiful. But I am afraid it will not fit me."

"My dear, you should trust your best friend who is by the way, a world renowned fashion designer. I specially crafted this masterpiece for you as a gift and I made this dress very flexible in case you will gain more weight. I am sure this will fit. Why do you think Aunt Lisa is monitoring your measurement weekly?"

"She told me that she wants to sew a maternity dress for me, not a fucking wedding dress! But Ash, thank you. The dress and crown looks very regal," I said as I sob in tears.

"No more crying, you will ruin your makeup."

"Ash, where am I getting married and where is dad?"

"Just relax. We will handle everything from here."
