Chapter 77 - 77 - Wedding Preparation

Emily's phone suddenly rang and after talking to someone, she stood up and looked at me.

"The couturier is here to take your measurements for your wedding dress. Let's go." She said.

I gave Jayden a quick kiss then rushed to grandpa and Kyle, giving them a hug while whispering thank you. I was really happy they allowed this wedding.

"Gentlemen, nice meeting you all." I said.

They stood up when Emily curtsey to grandpa and Kyle, and started to walk out. According to ranks, they are actually lower than us. Emily being the crown princess and me, as the princess of Flousia. Emily's rank is higher than mine so I need to be at her back.

But when we got out of the room, we giggled and walked, clinging on to each other's arms like kids. She was my first friend before Alora and the others. Now that our ties were deeper than before, we got closer even more.

"Congratulations! I'm happy for you!" She greeted me.

"Thank you! I'm so happy!" I said excitedly.

"Did you have a chance to talk to Jayden about Amanda?" Emily asked.

As they continued to walk to meet the couturier, she nodded.

"I pitied and envied her. She stayed with him longer than me, but he couldn't return her feelings." I answered.

"I'm glad you were able to fix your relationship. Caden would be so happy now that his parents would be together." She said.

We went directly to the main dressing room. This is where all the clothes of the royals were kept.

"Your royal highness, your highness. It's a pleasure to be chosen by you." A woman who's around her thirties greeted us.

We nodded in response while smiling at her.

"Leila, this is Princess Margaret, I know you heard of her. She will be getting married tomorrow so we need a wedding dress for her. Will you be able to do it overnight? Or maybe you already have one?" Emily asked.

She smiled and her face lit up. Then her assistants came inside, with 10 wedding dresses fitted on the mannequins.

I couldn't explain my feelings. My heart was thumping with joy just by looking at the white clothings decorated with sparkling gems and crystals.

"You could try all of them and I'll make some adjustments with the one you pick." Leila said.

I took a deep breath before trying the dresses one by one.

After three hours, I have already picked a wedding dress. We were choosing shoes, jewelry and flowers when the door opened. We were surprised to see Alora, Nina and Sophie.

We hugged each other and I was so emotional seeing them. I was glad that they're here to witness my wedding.

"Congratulations! You're finally getting married!" Nina exclaimed.

"Thank you!" I almost shouted.

Then the kids came running inside, Caden, Lucas and Alira, then Zoey.

"Congratulations Aunt Peggy!" The three kids of Alora greeted me in unison.

I was crying for joy when they came. The whole family was here and I couldn't ask for more.

"Leila we also need dresses for the bridesmaids, flower girls and suits for the kids." I said.

Leila stood up and all her assistants came rushing towards the girls and the kids to take their measurements.

I was looking at them, busy preparing for the wedding.

Beep. It was my phone. Someone just sent me a message. I was wondering who it was because all my friends were here.

'I missed you already.'

It was Jayden. I smiled seeing his message. I guess he already got my number from my phone. I quickly typed to send him a reply.

'I missed you too. Where are you?' Sent.

Beep.

'Still here with the royals. They were discussing something. How about you?' He replied.

'At the main dressing room. I'm done choosing the wedding dress. I hope you'll like it.' Sent.

Beep.

'Anything looks good on you. But I prefer you naked in front of me. Winked.'

I blushed with his reply and it suddenly made me feel hot. I bit my lips and replied.

'Why do I feel like I wanted to see you right now? I am craving for you.' Sent.

I frowned and felt sad when he didn't reply for a few minutes. I was about to put my phone back into my pocket when it rang. My heart beats faster when I see his name on it.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Meet me at the library." He said then ended the call.

I told the girls I will be meeting Jayden to talk about the wedding. They agreed and almost shooed me. They said they will take care of the rest and I should just stay in my room to have some siesta.

I thanked them before rushing outside to meet Jayden. On the way, I have mixed emotions. I waited for this wedding to happen. Even when I left him, I always dreamed of walking down the aisle while he was waiting at the end of it.

Now that it will finally happen, I am getting nervous and happy at the same time. Tomorrow, I will no longer use the surname Miller. The last name of my foster father who has given me nothing but wealth. I have already forgiven him but I haven't really talked to him for three years.

Thinking about it, maybe what happened to my family was bound to happen so I could be what I am right now. I became a better woman and a better parent. I wouldn't allow Caden to experience what I've been through. And now that Jayden and I will tie the knot, we could give our son a complete family, not broken just like mine.

With those thoughts, I didn't realize I was already in the library. It was a big room with three floors and I forgot to ask Jayden where we would meet. I looked around while trying to contact him but his phone was off.

Beep. I frowned. It wasn't the tone for my messages, it was for an incoming email. The sound continued and I was getting annoyed so I looked at it to check who sent it. I thought it was a spam email but I was shocked to see that it was from Jayden.
