Love In Between

Ava could not believe any of what she was witnessing was real. Standing right in the from of the mirror, all covered in wedding dresses, looked like a dream come true and without a doubt she was aware of it.

After the proposal from Bruce, there had been several attacks from the internet, directed at her labelling her as a public slut and a whore, who couldn’t keep her man, but Ava was unfazed by all the allegations.

Ava and Bruce agreed that they would be getting married privately and right now, she was headed for the church, with Chloe with her.

The maid had been the one to carefully dress her up and with Chloe by her side, Ava made her way to the car, while her driver drove off.

Moving through the highway, she received a text from an unknown number and it created nothing but worry at the heart of Ava. The text indicated that someone important was coming for her wedding and despite not knowing who this person was, she wondered what exactly was their mission of coming.

When Ava arrived at the church, Bruce was already waiting for her by the alter. Chloe used the flowers to pave way, while Ava walked down the aisle with a smile on her face as she found Bruce. He was all suited up and he looked ravishing.

“You look beautiful.” Bruce whispered and this made Ava completely blush. While they waited for the bishop, which was rarely a thing to do, the gates of rhe church opened and both Ava and Bruce turned around to see Mason and Nora stepping into the church together.

This didn’t sit well with the duo as they knew that it meant trouble was looming. The smirk on Mason further more, showed that there was a trick he had up his sleeves and this was completely making Ava uncomfortable.

“Hello Mr. Bruce and of course Ava.” Her cousin said with a tone of disdain. “Not to worry, I didn’t came here to cause any problem, I only came here to wish my dearest cousin a happy married life.” Ava didn’t say anything as she watch him return back to his seat.

Bruce had waited for Nora to come meet her, but she sat back down with her phone in her hands ignoring his presence totally. Not that he cared, he thought she would come taunting Ava, like she had done in the past.

It was past time and both Bruce and Ava were waiting for the bishop to step into the alter, when the door opened and several of Bruce security operatives burst into the church, leaving both Bruce and Ava confused about the whole situation.

“What is this madness? What is going on here?” Bruce asked.

“I believe a man is outside this very moment with several boys from the hood. He means no good.” Bruce and Ava wondered who it was and in that moment, Andrew stepped into the church himself.

Andrew on the other hand had arrived at the church with his men. He met up with Mason he had called earlier to look out for their location.

“Are they still in there?”

“No one has left the building” Mason replied.

“Very well, we go in. Tell your men one half of the men to come along while along the rest stay back” Andrew instructed before bursting through the doors of the church.

Ava, Bruce and Chloe coupled with the security operatives stood right there at the pulpit of the church.

“So this is where you came to get wedded; the house of God. You think he will save you from this event?” Andrew exclaimed as he walked majestically with his men towards the pulpit.

“One more step from you and it is over” The head of the security operative warned as the boys aimed their guns at him.

“Calm down boys, I just came to have a little chat here” Andrew tore his gaze away from the boys and fixed it on Ava who turned her face away.

“Hello sweetheart, it really pained me that you had to leave abruptly, all thanks to Bruce here” Andrew pointed out. “But don’t worry, I have my jet ready, after this we will be on our way to Paris”

“I won’t allow you touch her again” Bruce declared firmly.

“You never learn Bruce, that is your problem. Just because you were once Ava’s husband doesn’t rightfully make you the head over all things. She is mine and after you are dead, I believe Nora here would finally rule your company.” Andrew pointed out, while Nora and Mason stared at the scene. Ava at that moment realized this was all planned out. They were aware of the situation and had come to witness their down fall.

“Andrew! Enough of this madness, you have done enough harm to her, by standing here” Bruce pointed out. He was further scared of the men behind Andrew as they held on to their guns tightly.

“No harm will be greater if you don’t hand over Ava to me right now” Andrew warned.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“I will rather die than see you have her” Bruce replied “I lost her once, I am not going to loose her again trust me”

“Very well then. Maybe a little demonstration of my wrath will convince you that I am dead serious” He clapped his hands together and the men outside brought in someone tied with mask on his face. Andrew approached the masked man and unveiled his face causing everyone to gasp.

“You thought he would escape from my wrath?” Andrew laughed manically.

“Mother! What do you think you are doing Andrew.” Ava attempted to move forward, but was pulled back by Bruce, who realized the implication of ever facing Andrew at the moment.

“You see, that was the mistake; I am Andrew, the billionaire, a man full with various networking in various places” He boasted. “All I have to do was make a few calls to some friends at the underground and they seized your mom’s visa and my men took over” he explained.

“I am sorry Ava” Her mother revealed. Ava had the urge to strangle Andrew, but in this scenario, there was nothing she could do.
