Chapter 54 - My love is enough for you and me.
Della looked at the gown that Spencer had sent her. It was written?'Alfred Sung strapless High/Low
satin twill ballgown'?It screamed extravagant. It was was elegantly fine, with the dark maroon color.
"Atleast you're happy with your date.." Della sighed as she looked at her face on the mirror. She was
glad the hired makeup artist had managed to hide her eyes bags. All the crying that she had been
doing wasn't helping.
"Yeah Alfredo is really trying.." Mila smiled. "He told Garreth and everything will be okay.." Mila added
just to lighten up the mood but Della was still sad.
"I hope..? I don't regret this."
"You won't, Garreth knows exactly how to deal with his minion—" Mila said softly.
"I'm just not looking forward to seeing Andre; with another woman." Della admitted.
"He probably said that just to make you jealous.." Mila giggled but Della didn't. She looked absolutely
breathtaking with the red matte lipstick to match her maroon strapless dress. It outline and well defined
her beautiful white smile. Her eyes revealed all sorts of lugubriousness no matter how hard she tried to
cover it up.
"I hope so.." Della sighed. She wasn't worked up about the whole black tie yacht event. She hadn't
even tried on her dress to see if it fit her properly. All she wanted to do was stay home with her baby
and watch Hotel Transylvania; his favorite.
"Don't worry, alright? Garreth will put a stop to Spencer sooner than you think—"
She merely just gave Mila a small smile. Mila seemed excited already wearing Lulus convertible chiffon
gown. Snapping selfies of herself here and there. Della just sat next to her dress as it was still in its
packaging. She just sat in her morning gown. Looking miserable. Mila tried to cheer her up.. but it didn't
help. Mila was excited because these were her types of events. She lived for the spotlight and she was
just enjoying the perks of having something with a well off man even though they had not made
anything official. Mila jumped with joy when she saw a box of lavish chocolates right next to her gown
as it was being delivered by Alfredo's driver. He even had a make up artist come over at Della's
apartment as per Mila's request. Della just watched how happy her friend seemed. She didn't want to
ruin Mila's night with her problems. Mila had finally gotten all the things she had always wanted.. she
wanted a man who treated her well and knew how spoil.
She deserved every good thing, Alfredo was doing for her. She hadn't had that in a long time.
She asked Mila about how she felt about Alfredo's occupation. How she would deal with it all.. would
she go back to Mexico for his sake—
"We're not getting married Della.. relax." Mila quirked.

Ignacio rolled his eyes, for what seemed like the tenth time. 'Della this, Della that. Can't that bitch just
die already..'?Ignacio thought to himself as he handed Spencer back his little black box that contained
a platinum round cut diamond solitaire ring with side diamonds.
"It's nice." Ignacio shrugged.
"Just nice?" Spencer questioned.
"Yeah just nice, it's cute." Ignacio said ignorantly taping and swiping on his phone. That annoying kid
Luc kept bothering him.
'Dude, I'm not anyone's boyfriend; I'm not gay or bi either. I don't have any label and that's that.
Relationships? I don't roll like that. You're a good kid. Good luck finding a date, no bad blood.' Ignacio.
He shrugged once more watching Spencer put on his clean white dress shirt that perfectly defined his
body structure. He looked at Spencer dreamily..
Spencer turned to look at him when he was doing his last top button.
"Hey man, are you okay?" Spencer questioned curiously.
"Dude yeah.. what gave you that idea." Ignacio cleared his throat.
"Nothing, it's just that you have been staring into space.." Spencer turned back to face the mirror.
Ignacio could help but admire his back side as well. His well defined buns, from all the leg work outs
that Spencer did every morning at the gym. Ignacio couldn't compare his skinny lean body to Spencer..
sometimes he would just go to the gym to watch Spencer work out while he pretended to busy himself.
It was more rewarding because Spencer always walked butt naked in front of his supposed friend in
any case.
"Nah, I'm just thinking about the fact that you're getting married—" Ignacio said in a snazzy tone. A lot
of distaste and anger hidden beneath it.
"Crazy right..?!" Spencer chuckled.
"Super." Ignacio replied with absolutely no enthusiasm in his tone. "How did you propose?"
"I didn't." Spencer responded with ease.
"So—" Ignacio questioned.
"My love is enough for the both of us." Spencer said with a smug look.
So is ours.?Ignacio thought to himself.
"You know that guy from the cafe down the road Central Park?" Ignacio said softly.
"Yeah.. kinda—" Spencer took a long breath.
"I think he has a thing for you." Ignacio chuckled making it sound like a joke but Spencer's demeanor
immediately changed.
"That?faggot?better stay the far fuck away from me." He let out a homophobic slur.
"Are you fucking serious?" Ignacio questioned with a serious face.
"Dude, they can be gay and shit. I don't give a fuck but just far away from me."
Ignacio laughed muttering. "Crazy.." but it hurt. It hurt much more that he was planning to get married
to Della. It hurt that he might even have a friendship with Spencer if he ever found out. It seemed
Spencer was very homophobic, he had nothing good to say about that community and that really hurt
Ignacio. He wished if only Della could die before ever getting Spencer. If he couldn't have Spencer then
no one would.?

Andre couldn't stop thinking about what had happened earlier at the office. Garreth McCarthy had paid
him a visit. He wasn't expecting it, that was far from his expectations. Garreth has always expressed
his grieve and hatred for Andre. It just surprised him how he came in such a calm manor and showed
mutual respect for Andre which he had never had before.
"Garreth if you're here to warn me about your daughter.. please—" Andre was cut off.
"Actually the opposite." Garreth gave a stern reply before sitting down. Andre was angry at his
assistant for not even warning him of Garreth's arrivals isn't that her job. Andre didn't want to give away
the fact that he knows about the shipping—
"I know that you know.." Garreth said calmly setting his foot on top of the other.
"Excuse me?" Andre replied.
"I'm going to make a second shipment and I have already drawn up everything with my lawyers and it's
all written in Spencer's name.." Garreth said calmly composed. Andre was shocked by his bluntness.
"But why?" Andre questioned.
"For now it's none of your concern but I just want to deal with Spencer. Death will be an easy way out
for what I have planned for him." Garreth said the last part under his breath. It made Andre have
goosebumps, the way this man talked about death as if it was a norm. Of course it was but not when
you have so much blood on your hands and living with the fact that you have killed someone. You have
ended someone's life.. someone who had family and friends who love them and were waiting for them
to come home but never did.
"Just make sure the shipping goes in place. My lawyers will send in the portfolio, this will be the last
shipping your company ever does?with us.."
Andre was confused.
"You want Spencer to take all the blame for every mule that will be found on the terminal?" He
questioned.
"That's after I make sure he spends weeks in a hospital bed.." Garreth said maliciously.
"But why?" Andre questioned still confused.
"You just need to focus on making my daughter happy and my grandson. They're the most important
people in my life. I might not come out of this alive because I'm well aware that Spencer won't back out
without a fight. I created this little monster that I now have to fight..." Garreth said still calm. "If
something happens to me Andre.. just take care of Della and Leo. Nothing absolutely nothing on this
earth would bring me fulfillment."
"You're not making sense—" Andre added.
"Just promise you will!!" Garreth practically barked at Andre, he was startled. He didn't expect it.
"Fine, ofcourse I will. They're my family, even if you hadn't asked me to." Andre said.
"Good." Garreth gave him a pat on the shoulder like a dog. Andre was still confused, Garreth spoke as
if he was going to commit suicide. "Watch your back." Garreth said lastly before leaving. It left Andre
with a lot to think about. Marcela wasn't helping.. ever since she had been having problems with her
husband, she refrained from talking to anyone related or in relation with her daughter. Marcela thought
it was for the best to distance herself for a bit from everything. Reason being why she had blocked all
of Andre's phone calls. Especially since he needed her help.
"Andre, you're not even dressed yet.." Marcelle interrupted his thoughts.
"I will probably wear the same suit.. nothing special about a black tie event." Andre shrugged.
"Are you missing something?" Marcelle seductively strolled over to him.
"Missing what?" He asked her.
She was hurt because he had not even noticed her lace dress that revealed a sexy amount of cleavage
and the revealing sides that suggested that she wasn't wearing any underwear underneath.
Andre hadn't noticed.
He hadn't noticed the fact that she straight her curls and had her eyebrows and eye lashes done. Not
to mention her manicure to match the dress.
Marcelle did a twirl in front of Andre trying to make him notice by himself.
"Nice earrings." Andre said walking away. Truthfully speaking he had only noticed the ratings because
they grabbed so much attention with the sparkle in them. Surely it was real diamond. Andre was
surprised that she went all out when all he was going to do was wear a suit that he has owned for more
than two years.. Andre decided to wear his wedding tux. It was still new just like yesterday when he
watched her walk down the aisle. Occasionally he wore his wedding tux just to somehow feel the
excitement that he felt the night before getting married and as he stood there waiting to see her. It was
indeed one of the best moments in his life. He remembered bickering with his mom about the suit.
Jeanine as always had picked out a designer suit even though he had continuously told her that; Adela
and himself wanted something simple.
This suit meant so much to him because for the first time, he rebelled against his mom. On the morning
of the wedding, he had Danny pick out his original simple suit and the custom designer suit that his
mom had picked out for him stayed untouched in its place. He had told Adela to do the same thing.. to
wear the dress of her choice and leave the one his mother had picture out for her.
At the wedding Jeanine almost had a heart attack. Andre shook his head thinking about it, a smile on
his lips. That was until he realized she would soon forget about that wedding because she had an
upcoming one.
As he was about to button his blazer.
He saw a stain inside on the right inside pocket were the brand name was written right next to the
inside pocket. Della had messed that part with red wine. She couldn't stop laughing—
They were so happy. He thought to himself.
"That suit has even lost its color. You can't wear that.." Marcelle had abruptly opened what was once
Della and Andre's bedroom.
"I'm wearing it." Andre said in a serious tone.
"Andre you can afford a new suit and you want to go in that.." Marcelle couldn't hide the
embarrassment that she felt.
"You can always pretend you don't know me.." Andre gave a dry joke which sent Marcelle off the edge.
"It was cute when you would make those jokes but now it's just stupid. You're stupid Andre.." Marcelle
let out. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Woah thanks." Andre shrugged.
"You never care about anything I have to say, it's as if my opinion doesn't matter to you. How will we
have a relationship when you never take me seriously Andre?" Marcelle yelled out her frustrations.
"You're a little girl, Marcelle. I will never take you seriously." Andre responded putting on his Rolex.
Marcelle composed herself.
"I love you regardless." She said softly. "I will wait for you downstairs."
Andre shrugged, he didn't care. Even if she left he wouldn't care.
