191 Three Days Left 1

Name:This Time You Are Mine Author:mekane
Yve and Team Alpha are having their final meeting the night after the final taste testing at Edward's office.

"Let's hurry up as Yve's time is limited. Primo might look for her any moment." Jaleb said worriedly.

"No need. I asked Nyelle and Edward's help to make up a lie. She told Vince we will be going out for some girl bonding and he happily agreed."

"Hmm… great job!" Eybelle complimented her.

"But knowing Primo there should be a curfew, right?" Slayne said.

"You really nailed it to the core. I have to be back by 8PM tonight."

"It's a long time. Nevertheless, let's begin the meeting." Slayne said.

First who spoke was Sylvan as he reported on the things they did the past few days including the dress fitting and the taste testing. Next to report, was Edward whose in-charge of the venue and the invites. He said that most of the people they invited gave their Yes in attendance to the event. The venue is already ready and that Sylvan and the coordinator can place the set-up the day before the wedding.

"However, I have one thing I need to get your permission, Yve." Edward politely asked.

"What is it?"

"As the media got a hold of the birthday party, they wanted to get a scoop on it. Some even wished to get an exclusive. Here are their offers." Edward handed over some files to her.

"So many of them?!" Yve gasped in disbelief.

"Well, since it's the first time that Primo invited socialites and businessmen in his birthday party. Usually it would be his mother and us in a simple dinner." Edward responded.

"Really? Do you think he was angry when he learned I prepared a birthday party for him?" Yve anxiously asked.

"No. He was happy that you prepared the party for him yet he was worried that you will tire yourself out." Edward honestly answered.

"Then why was it he never had a birthday party before?"

"He said that he didn't have the time to prepare and worry on it. Moreover, with the deal he had with Stones before, he didn't want to attend any formal event with Airis as his partner."

"Hmm…" Yve replied and instantly masked the smile that leaked when she heard Edward's answer.

"What do you think about those requests?" Chrysthe asked.

"To be honest, I don't really know which to choose. I don't want all of them to be at the event. So exclusive is the only option but I'm not sure on which station would be the best." Yve honestly answered.

"How about I handle it for you?" Eybelle offered.

"But you have an existing mission, don't you?"

"It's fine. I already have the idea on which station to choose. I just need to check their offer." Eybelle said.

"Do you have any preference?" She asked Yve.

"I have none but I think it would be best to have an exclusive for the station and a different one for the newspaper. Maybe an affiliated one?" Yve answered with a hint of lack of confidence from her voice.

"Okay. Then let me handle this stuff. I will update you tomorrow morning before I inform the chosen station and newspaper. Will that be fine?" Eybelle confirmed.

"Yes, then I'll leave it up to you."

"How about the church?" Jaleb asked.

"The wedding will happen at the hotel's beach front. I have invited the priest and told Slayne about it." Edward answered.

Last to report was Slayne. He showed the final layout of the interior design for the reception and the look for the beach front.

"It's my first time to show you the plan for the beach front? Do you have any requests?" Slayne asked.

"Everything fits perfect with our clothes." Yve complimented him

"The wedding coordinator designed it as she heard the motif of your gown and suit is white with blue accent." Slayne replied.

"Perfect. I found nothing to correct."

"That will be all for this meeting. Let's do our best in the execution of our plans." Yve said before standing up and leaving the room. Chrysthe followed her and escorted her to the suite while the rest remained to finalize the security details during the wedding.

On another building, the group of men who attacked Vince and Edward in the amusement park are in a discussion with their boss.

"Sir, we heard that they will have a birthday party for Mr. Gray. We can strike on that day."

"That will not be a wise idea. Media will be there. I don't want to attract unnecessary attention."

"When should we strike, then?"

"I would like you to plan it carefully. I want it to be a successful plot, with me laughing from a far." The boss ordered and concluded the meeting as he walked out of the room.

In the Noble's office, Maddie is busy choosing her dress for the wedding as well as the suits for Team Alpha and the dress for Eybelle. She knew that they will be there as bodyguards but still she wanted them to dress for the event as part of the people who are loyal to her son.

'It's the least I can do for them as a thank you.'

She thought as she finalizes the clothes in the mannequin before calling Edward to gather the team for a fitting.

In the hotel, Haru is also busy finalizing the instructions for the wedding. He also wanted to make sure that everything will be perfect on his side. However, he failed to ask the set-up of the table for the reception. Without checking the time, he called Yve.

"Hello? Yve, about the…." Haru asked but got interrupted when he heard a different voice.

"Haru? Why are you calling Yve this late tonight?" Vince answered her phone. This caught Haru off guard and looked at his watch to check the time.

'It's really late. 10:30 in the evening. What should I tell him?' Haru got worried.
