The Billionaire's Binding Proposal ~ 263
Chapter 263~Kesley~The house felt strangely quiet this morning. Taraji and Fred had officially left for their honeymoon yesterday.Niklaus had been acting strange since the moment he woke up. He didn't put on his usual three-piece suit. He didn't pick up his tablet to check the development of the site they are building. Instead, he took the day off. He had a mysterious glint in his eye, a little smirk that told me he was hiding a very big secret."Kesley, love," he said, leaning against the doorframe of our bedroom. "I need you to get ready. I’ve laid something out for you in the dressing room."I walked into the dressing room and gasped. Laid out on the velvet chair was a new dress. It wasn't a heavy, formal gown. It was soft, white, and made of the most delicate silk I had ever touched. It looked like a dream."Niklaus, what is this for?" I asked, looking back at him. "Are we going to a party?""Not a party," he said, walking over to wrap his arms around my waist from behind. He k

Chapter 262~Kesley~The sun was shining so brightly today. I stood in the small room at the back of the church, smoothing out the fabric of my bridesmaid dress. It was a soft, elegant color that made me feel like I was part of a dream. But today wasn’t about me. Today was the day Taraji, my best friend, my protector, and the sister I chose for myself, was going to marry the man of her dreams.I looked over at Taraji, and I almost lost my breath. She looked like an angel. Her white dress flowed around her like a cloud, and her veil was so light it seemed to float in the air. She was standing in front of a full-length mirror, staring at her reflection with wide, nervous eyes."Kesley," she whispered, her voice shaking just a little bit. "Is this real? Am I really doing this?"I walked over and took her hands in mine. They were a little cold. "It’s very real, Taraji. You’re about to walk down that aisle and start the most beautiful chapter of your life. You look stunning."Amanda stepp

Chapter 261~Taraji~The room was a beautiful disaster. Everywhere I looked, there were rolls of white lace, samples of silk ribbons, and so in. In the middle of all the chaos stood a mannequin wearing my wedding dress. It was simple, elegant, and perfect. Looking at it made my heart do a little somersault. I was actually doing this. I was getting married to Fred.I had made the gown myself. I was the stylist for my wedding."Taraji, if you bite your lip one more time, you’re going to need stitches before the ceremony," a voice teased from the corner.I turned around and smiled at my bridesmaids. Kesley was there, of course, looking radiant as she helped me organize the seating charts. But right next to her was someone I never thought I would see in my circle.Amanda.She was busy steaming the bridesmaid dresses, her face calm. When I had first suggested we include Amanda, Kesley was a bit nervous. We all had a rocky history because of Dan, but Amanda was not a bad person. She had a

Chapter 260~Fred~The office was quiet. Niklaus was sitting at his desk, I was opposite him. He was staring at a small, velvet box in his hand, flipping the lid open and shut, open and shut.I stood by the window, watching him. It was strange to see the big intimidating CEO looking so nervous about a piece of jewelry. Well I have been there."I want to do it right this time, Fred," Niklaus said, his voice unusually quiet. He looked up at me, and I saw a vulnerability in his eyes that he only ever showed when Kesley’s name was mentioned. "No lawyers. No witnesses for a signature. No business deal. I want to propose to her properly. Something intimate, just for us. She has been through so much because of me. She deserves this.” I nodded, leaning against the glass. Niklaus sighed, a small smile playing on his lips. "I’ve spent my whole life planning takeovers and mergers, but trying to figure out the perfect way to ask a woman to stay with me forever has me shaking in my boots.""You'

Chapter 259~Kesley~ I got here before Jude. The coffee shop was filled up. I sat at a small corner table, watching the door. When Jude walked in, he looked hesitant, his eyes scanning the room until they landed on me. He smiled at me. "Hey, Kes," he said, sliding into the chair across from me. "Thanks for coming. I know you’re busy recovering ad with your project and… everything else.""Jude, we’ve been friends for a while now, it has not been a long time but surely I do consider you a friend." I started, keeping my voice soft. I didn't want to beat around the bush. I needed to be honest for his sake. "I wanted to meet you because I value you. You were there for me when things were overwhelming, and you were there for me when things got dangerous. But I need to be very clear about where we stand."Jude looked up, his expression pained. "I know what you're going to say, Kesley. I saw the way he looked at me in the hospital. I saw how he holds you.""It’s more than just how he holds

Chapter 258~Kesley~ After the storm of the morning, the meeting with the Grandfather, everything finally felt right. Niklaus was still over at the main estate, finishing up some last-minute paperwork with his grandfather. I had come home early to rest and process the fact that my life was finally my own again.I sat on the sofa, clutching a pillow to my chest. I reached for my phone, thinking that I really needed to call Taraji. I wanted to tell her the good news about the meeting before she saw it on the news. But before I could even find her name in my contacts, her face popped up on the screen. She was FaceTime-ing me."Great minds really do think alike," I laughed as soon as I swiped to answer. "I was just about to call you, Taraji! You won't believe what happened at the Grandfather’s house…."I stopped mid-sentence. Taraji wasn't looking at the camera. She was staring at her own hand, which was positioned perfectly in front of the lens. On her finger, a delicate, sparkling diam
