One Year Later

Today is the day that I marry the man on my dreams literally! Zac and I have conquered so much together, it's only right that I end this chapter of my life with his last name! I've been waiting for this day since he proposed a year ago and although we took things slow, it's been an amazing journey!

Maurice, "CIN? Are you ready love?"

"I'm coming!"

I stepped out and walked out to the limo! We opted to get ready at the cathedral! The wedding is an hour out and my nerves haven't decreased at all!

Maurice and My uncle J are giving me away today! Zac and I have grown so much, I also got the chance to share some of my childhood experiences and in the midst of both of us sharing, we realized that he is my childhood crush! Who would've known that a year later, I would be marrying him!

I need to take y'all back to the day of my re-grand opening cause Karen and Evilene ruined my first one! Well as you know Zac proposed! To me it was magical, and I loved every second of it! Well, when we left, he told me he had a surprise for me! I wasn't thinking much of it until we pulled up to what appeared to be an abandoned warehouse! He helped me out and I was nervous asf! Let's take a trip back down memory lane, shall we?

Flashback, A YEAR AGO

"Baby what is this? It's very creepy out here!"

Zac, "I have a surprise for you love!"

"Zac out here?"

Zac chuckled, "Yeah, do you trust me?"

I nodded, "Of course I trust you!"

Zac, "Alright then, let's go!"

We stepped into the building, and it was cold, it kinda felt like a freezer but with a lot more humidity! He took me to the back to this room and when I opened the door, my mouth dropped, "KAREN? VERONICA?"

Zac looked back at me, "I couldn't dare kill them without at least some form of explanation for their actions! They need to tell you why they did what they did, that's if you would like to hear it!"

I nodded and we stepped in, Zac splashed water on both of them and they jumped before looking at me!

Veronica, "Well if it isn't Cinderella!"

"Evilene!"

Veronica, "Everything that I did was to protect you!"

"How tf were you supposed to protect me? You belittled me and turned me into your maid, that's not protection that's ownership! You wanted to own me and treat me like I was your slave!"

Karen chuckled, "You're still a dramatic tramp huh?"

My blood was boiling, and I drew both of my hands back and slapped the fuck out of both of them, "Look bitches, you don't have to apologize, you don't even have to acknowledge that you were wrong, but you will not sit up here and think I'm still the slave you once knew! As you can see, I bossed up, I have a man who loves me, my father's business, and more importantly I'm FREE! I don't need nor have I ever needed either of you for shit! You needed me, that's the only way you would've been able to stay in my dad's house is if I'm there! He left you NOTHING and he left the whole EMPIRE to me! His only child! You didn't mean shit to him and neither did your bastard ass child! My father tried to provide and give both of you ungrateful bitches a new lifestyle and you didn't appreciate it! Now you want to sit here and try to mock me? You bitches could never!"
