#Book 2 Chapter 36
” Congrats!” Katie and Zeke greeted Kei and me, who’s standing beside me.
We returned to the hotel because that’s the reception where food is located.
The program just ended, and we’re visiting each table to thank the people who went to our wedding.
” Thank you!” The boys hugged each other with smiles and in a manly way as Katie almost lifted me up when she engulfed me in an embrace.
” Myghaddd. You’re already married! I thought Kei would never have a wife.” Katie and I laughed at her remark, and Kei gave a glare in her direction.
” What do you think of me? Not human? Oh well, I never expected that you and Zeke will end up with each other.” Zeke then hugged me next.
” And why is that, Kei? What’s not to like? I’m handsome, hot, cool, smart, sexy, gorgeous—ow!” And because I’m the one near Zeke, I slapped the back of his neck playfully, and Katie followed my example before he even got to say all the positive subject complement in the world.
” I don’t like you at first, you know? You seduced me, and I hate you for that!” Katie said to him.
” What? Why?” She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms to her chest.
” There’s a lot of reason why I don’t like you in the first place… You’re arrogant—” Keian and I looked at each other when Katie started describing Zeke. Mwahahaha.
Keian smiled and whispered in my ear.
” Let’s get out of here before they start fighting…” I agreed with his idea then we walked towards another table, holding hands.
To the table where the maids in the mansion are seated, including manang and the agents we met.
Commander Levi and Semil are the first ones who approached us.
” Congrats on your wedding.” Commander Levi professionally greeted with a smile.
I shook his hand, and Keian did the same. Commander Semil also greeted his congratulations.
” Thank you for coming,” I said to the two of them.
While Keian talked with the commanders, I turned my attention to Ema, Jane, Roxy, and Manang.
” Ateeee!” Roxy excitedly exclaimed.
” Roxyyy,” I said her name in the same manner.
She jumped in front of me joyously.
” You’re really so pretty, ate. Congrats!!!”
” She’s right, Nass. You beat the celebrities’ looks.” I winced at Ema.
” Don’t exaggerate. We only have the same level of beauty.”
” Haist, don’t be so humble, Nassandra!” Jane then said.
” Oh, what will I do with all of you girls. All of you are pretty.” Manang exclaimed so we all looked at her.
The three maidens looked at each other, then simultaneously said;
” You too, manang!” We all laughed and talked to each other until I felt Keian’s hand on my waist.
” Oy!” I uttered in shock at him suddenly appearing. He kissed my cheeks then stuffed his face on my neck.
” Let’s get out of here immediately.” He whispered. I furrowed my eyebrows at him and put distance between us.
” There’s still so much visitors. We haven’t even greeted everyone.” He grinned at me.
” Eh, I can’t wait to spend—oof” He got cut off from what he was saying when I pulled him to the groomsmen’s table.
” Finally! You’ve decided to show to us. It looked like you even had a plan of leaving early.” Steven said, then he engulfed me in an embrace.
” Nassss! Why did you marry Keiii? Don’t you know his real attitude? Just stay with me, okay?” I just laughed when Steven weep in front of us.
Keian’s expression became cold as he immediately separated the two of us.
” What did you say, Cortez?” Steven just narrowed his eyes at Keianm, then stuck his tongue out.
” You—!” I dragged the two of them and approached the others by the table.
” You look great in white, Del Luna. You can be the white lady by a balete tree.” Dale said while smirking.
I pouted at him.
” You’re too much!”
” Don’t listen to Dale, Nass. You really look great.” Maxence then said.
I became happy at what he said. We’re often speaking to each other now whenever we’re meeting in the mansion. He now cared about his surroundings…
” Thank you, Maxence.”
” Mama!” I turned in the direction of the voice.
” Brylle!” From Kuya Kayden and Diego, he ran towards me.
” Diego!” The man smiled widely when I called his name.
He traveled to another country, so this is the only time I saw him again.
I carried Brylle and hugged him and his father.
” You’re missing me too much already.” He teased.
” You didn’t even call once when you’re out of the country. How can I not miss you?!” I grouchily remarked. He laughed then pat my head.
” I’m sorry. I just became busy.”
” But Papa Diego, you said that you get rested very well in ahsjashjsjakmmmp,” Diego took Brylle from me and hugged him, putting the child’s face on his clothes to prevent him from exposing the former further.
” Brylle, my son. Didn’t you know? I was busy, baby.” I just raised my eyebrows at Diego.
” Give Brylle back to me! You’re snatching him away.” I exclaimed and took Brylle back, who just laughed at how we’re passing him like a ball.
” Luh, Nass! That’s my son, eh.”
” Hihihi.” Diego was about to get Brylle again, but someone else carried the child, it’s not me.
” Let me have Brylle. End of argument.” Kuya Kayden stated.
Diego and I both pouted at what Kuya Kayden did while Brylle kissed on all our cheeks.
” I love you too, Mama, Papa Diego!” He energetically said that made the two of us smile.
” How ’bout me, Brylle? Don’t you love me?” Keian suddenly appeared beside me and asked Brylle.
I shut my eyes closed because I almost screamed in shock.
I don’t know why I’m so jumpy today…
” Of course, Tito Kei! I love you too!”
” What about me, Brylle?” Devon asked with shining eyes.
Brylle stared at him and went into deep thought.
I then saw Devon’s smile disappeared, and his expression became gloomy.
” Awww, that’s alright, Devon.” Dale teasingly said. Devon looked at him with a glare.
” W-Why? I’m not affected, FYI.” He said in a blank tone, and we all know that’s not what he’s feeling.
” It’s okay, Tito Devon. I love you too!” Devon’s mouth straightened when he heard what Brylle said.
Preventing his self from smiling. Hihi.
” G-Good to know,” We all laughed at Devon’s reply.
I saw Erick approaching Keian and me, then he hugged the two of us at the same time.
” Congrats, Nass, Kei.” He happily greeted.
” Thank you, big guy. But please, can you let go? I-I can’t breathe,” Erick released the two of us, patted our heads then sat on his chair.
” Uwahhh,’ Keian and I looked at Tiya, who’s carrying Kathriane.
” Oh, Nass. She won’t stop crying.” I smiled at Tiya Anne then carried Kathriane in my arms. Keian gets closer to me.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
” Why my child? Why are you crying?” I talked to her though she’s still not talking.
She suddenly stopped crying and smiled when she saw me. She also looked at Keian, and her smile widened.
” Can I hold her?” Keian asked.
” Of course, Kei.”
I gave Kathriane to him, who has shimmering eyes while looking at our daughter.
The maids in the mansion, manang, tiya, William, and even our friends in the mafia surrounded Keian and Kathriane.

” Are you sure you don’t want to stay at our estate? Kei? Nass?” Keian heaved out a sigh and nodded in Tito Andre’s direction.
” You know very well why I don’t want us to stay at your house, right?” I blushed at what Keian said while Tito Andre laughed.
” Alright, alright. Don’t be so wild, okay? Don’t break the whole house down. This building is small…”
My eyes widened.
” Tito!” I exclaimed. Keian just smirked, and Tito Andre winked at me.
” What? I’m just saying, hija.” I pouted my lips at Tito Andre.
” And Tito. How can you say this building is small? 10 elephants can already live here!” I remarked. It’s really not small, you know? Tito laughed again.
” Yes, Nass. This is still small.” My mouth gaped at what he said.
” Oh, well. I’ll take my leave now. Bon séjour ici en France! Au revoir!(Enjoy your stay here in France! Bye!)” After Tito said that, he immediately left the house.
” Our things are already arranged, so we don’t need to bother ourselves with that anymore.” Keian suddenly whispered huskily in my ear.
I looked at him and widely smiled.
” Is that so? Come on, bring me the tourist spots.” His mouth closed straight and his eyebrows almost met.
” No, let’s stay here. Just until we—”
” You said you’ll tour me around, right? Let’s go already. I’m so excited, Kei. I’ll change my clothes first, okay?”
” But—”
I continuously cut off what he’s saying then I entered the bathroom while carrying my bag containing my clothes.
