The Emperor who loves me dearly - Chapter 76

[Your Majesty, the CEO of Zhang corporation will get married to a woman named Ashley Perez this week, should I send a representative?] Oliver texted Logan early that morning. They will be going back to Crescent Resort to finished business meetings with other big-shot owners and royals from Alutia empire. They will stay there for another two days before finally returning to Theavarian empire.

[Send a gift and a representative] he typed as he waited for Celestia to return from the comfort room.

The woman arrived in her green casual dress, her black hair tied into a ponytail.

“Hey,” she greeted the man who is resembling an Olympian god. He is back to being Daxon Logan Fergus. Logan pulled the seatbelt of Celestia’s seat, his scent in close proximity to Celestia’s nose.

‘He really smells good’

“My little tigress is such a temptress,” he said, complimenting Celestia as she becomes comfortable with her seat.

She looks dazzling in her black hair!

“When will your natural hair color come back?” he questioned, although he wants to bed a black haired Celestia later with her heels on.

“Hmm, in a week?” she said, unsure. Although before when she dyed it black pretending to be Adam’s wife, it took her a whole month in order to remove all traces of black hair.

A moment of silence followed it’s already three in the afternoon when they decided to board on the plane, Celestia has a hangover earlier that day so Logan decided to postpone their early flight to take care of his wifey.

*Brrrt*

Logan’s phone lighted up.

[The empress accessed her cure]

An automatic alarm informed him.

The man sighed, although he really doesn’t want to let anyone have the cure he created he can’t stop Astrid, that’s what’s in the contract of their marriage anyway. It’s her choice to take it, and if that’s the case, Logan can be at ease if she will take it, no more feelings attached.

She will not get hurt when he will divorce her.

[Ok.] he replied to turn off its notifications.

If only it happened before, he will show no kindness to Astrid, but now, it seems like Celestia damaged his system and changed him big time.

Since when did he care about other people’s feelings? As far as he knows, everyone is at his disposal. He is a manipulator, a dictator, and a tyrant just like his father. However, it seems like he did not inherit all his father’s genes, he still got one from his mother.

“Hmm, Logan?” she asked, touching his arms.

“What is it?” he shifted his attention again to the woman beside him, putting his phone on the vacant chair beside him.

The plane is already in mid-air.

“The incident about Astrid and her friend…I-I don’t know what to do the next time our paths will cross again,” she said, admitting all her emotions sober.

Logan never knew he can feel sad just by looking at Celestia’s gloomy face. It is essential to clear this once and for all.

He began to be serious.

“Now, it’s an important time for us to decide,” his low voice said, his face is poker face as he talks to Celestia. They need to make a decision right now, Logan has been really patient to Celestia, he respects her choice but after what he witnessed, he does not have anymore remaining feelings for Astrid. He lets them go this time, but next time there will be blood to sacrifice.

No one can defy his orders, not even Astrid.

“I will divorce her once we step at Theavarian empire, at the banquet where everyone will know, love still exists and it’s in the color of emerald. You are the love in this loveless empire wifey, let your hubby take care of everything okay?” he said, sweetly in his serious face as he caresses Celestia’s face.

Love is in the color of emerald, the color of her eyes.

Kissing her inside this private airplane, Logan felt like he’s in heaven.

As they look in each other’s eyes, Celestia slowly nodded, as if she’s being proposed to and she says yes.

She’s speechless, mixed emotions started to flood in her mind. She’s scared yet the happiness she felt overcame all those anxiety’s she is feeling.

Yes, this time, they will become a happy family.

Tears of joy flooded in her face when Logan pulled out a box out of nowhere, it would be a proposal if it’s a box of a ring but it’s larger.

“Open it wifey,” Logan said, handing her the box. She removes her hands on his arm and took the box in color black and with gold carvings with a loose ribbon to complete it. Her hand felt the soft texture of it, the expensive type of texture, soft and easy to touch.

Her mouth dropped at the sight of the jewelry that could buy an entire kingdom!

It contained the Blue Belle of Alutia Empire, the one at the auction.

“W-when did y-you?” she stutters, her mind is not functioning properly, there are too many surprises happening!

‘Is this real? Or am I still in my deep slumber?’

If this is a dream, she wishes to stay forever.

“I bought it from the buyer while you were sleeping,” he said, his eyes warmly welcomes Celestia’s glimmering ones. He grabs her arm that is covering her mouth from shock, kissing her right hand.

“Next time it will be a ring,” he added, looking straightly at her eyes.

Celestia’s eyes began to water continuously and for once, she started to cry only this time because of too much joy.

‘I’m sorry Astrid, but I need him more than you do, I’m sorry for taking away what’s supposed to be yours…’

She had been patient, at least she tried. But now, after what happened at the auction, she can no longer be in the shadows, let the people think that she is the evil one…they will never know the story behind, how she grieved internally in this life for the love that cannot be.

When the time comes, she will say ‘Yes’ repeatedly to Logan’s proposal.

Falling in love with each other without his memories only meant that they are destined from the very start.

‘Aiden and Eden, mommy is bringing daddy back as promised’

Thousands of thoughts ran in her mind, but at that beautiful moment, all she can think of is how she loves him deeply.

This time, it’s safe to say it.

“Love me Harder, Logan”
