I Hope You Will Never Regret

Xavier parked his car outside the Evans mansion, then he took his wife in his arms and kissed her. It was the first time they would be separated.

Avery kissed him on his face and said, “I miss you already, my love. I don’t think I will be able to sleep without your arms around me.”

Xavier looked at his wife with sadness in his eyes and asked, “Why don’t we go back home and come back tomorrow morning? It will be a long night without you by my side, Sweetheart.” He was reluctant to leave her behind.

Sam Prince saw the car parked outside the mansion and told Bridgette. She smiled brightly, then she took her phone and dialed Avery’s number.

When it was connected, she said, “Baby, why are you parking outside the house? Please bring my son-in-law with you. I want to see him.”

Avery smiled and replied, “Alright, Mom.” She smiled sweetly at her husband and said, “Honey, Mom wants to see you.”

Then Xavier drove the car to the driveway. He got out of the car, then he walked to the passenger side, and reached out his hand. Avery smiled sweetly at him and took his hand. Xavier took the gift bags and her handbag, then they walked to the house.

Bridgette was waiting for them by the door. She smiled brightly at them. Avery took her hand and said, “Congratulations, Aunt Bridge. Your engagement ring is stunning.” Then Aunt Bridgette ushered them to the living room.

Avery gave Aunt Bridgette a box of chocolate and her favourite perfume from Lancôme. Aunt Bridge was over the moon. She kissed Avery and thanked her.

Her parents walked into the living room smiling. Mr Evans greeted them, then he shook Xavier’s hand. Mrs Evans hugged her God granddaughter and said, “How was your honeymoon?”

Avery smiled brightly and replied, “It was amazing, God grandma. Seychelles Resort is breathtakingly beautiful. We didn’t want to come back home.” Then she handed a pair of diamond earrings over to her God grandmother.

Her God grandma smiled brightly and thanked her. Her God grandpa kissed her on both cheeks and said, “I heard that you cut your trip short to be part of Bridgette’s betrothal ceremony. It means so much to the Evans family.”

Avery smiled brightly then she handed a designer shirt to her God grandpa. He smiled brightly and said, “Thank you, Sweetheart. I will wear it tomorrow.”

Avery looked at Aunt Bridgette and asked, “Aunt Bridge, I thought your relatives would be here already. When are your cousins coming?”

Her God grandma responded before her daughter and said, “My family didn’t approve of my husband because he was a security guard. We got married without my parents’ blessings. As a result, they never visited us.

I had to beg my youngest brother to attend his niece’s betrothal gift ceremony. My brother came with his family, but he refused to come to our house because we are staying in a small house. Eden indicated that they prefer to stay in the hotel.”

Mrs Evans had two brothers and two sisters, but they stopped talking to her after she got married to a security guard. They felt that she was an embarrassment to the Kemp family.

They didn’t even tell her when her parents passed away. She found out five years later when she was reaching out to her youngest brother. Her heart was broken into pieces.

The Evans family double-story mansion was located in the wealthiest area in La Lucia. There were twenty mansions in their neighbourhood.

Xavier and Avery were dumbfounded. They couldn’t wait to see Mr Kemp and his family’s faces when they saw the mansion.

After dinner, Xavier bade goodbye to the Evans family. Avery smiled sweetly at him, then she walked him to his car.

She hugged his waist, then she put her head on his chest and said, “I love you so much, my handsome husband. Please drive safely on the road.”

Xavier kissed his wife on top of her head; he was reluctant to leave and replied, “I love you more, my stunning wife. Tomorrow, I will introduce you to Grandpa’s brothers and their wives.” He hugged his wife tightly for a long time, then he left.

The following day, at His Glory Hotel, Eden Kemp and his family were eating breakfast. Eden looked at his wife and said, “My wife, my sister, told me that she would send someone to fetch us at 9 am.”

His wife, Beauty, scoffed, “Why don’t we call an Uber to fetch us? I don’t trust your sister’s arrangement.” Her husband touched his wife’s hand and replied, “My wife, my sister’s family is not rich, but I think they can afford a decent car.”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Her daughter, Page, looked at her mother and said, “Mom, I just did my nails. I hope they will not ask me to peel the vegetables.” She didn’t like her aunt and her family because they were poor.

At 8:30, Mrs Evans sent her bodyguard, Prince, to fetch the Kemp family at His Glory Hotel.

Fifteen minutes later, Prince took his phone. He dialed Mr. Kemp’s number and said, “Good morning, Sir, my name is Prince. I am waiting for you in the foyer.” Mr Kemp indicated that they were still eating.

At 9:30, the Kemp family finished their breakfast, then they went to their rooms to fetch their luggage. Prince started panicking, then he sent a text message to Mrs Evans indicating that he was still waiting for them.

At 9:45 they checked out of the hotel. Then they approached Prince. He greeted them with respect, then he took Mr Kemp’s luggage. He smiled at them and asked them to follow him to the parking lot.

Page looked at Prince with disdain in her eyes and said, “Don’t forget to carry my luggage. Please handle it with care.” Prince looked at her, but he ignored her. Mr Kemp took his daughter’s luggage and followed Prince.

The Kemp family was surprised when they saw Prince walking towards the luxury Bentley. Mrs Kemp looked at her husband and asked, “Didn’t you tell me that your sister is poor?” Mr Kemp smiled at Prince and asked, “Is this your car?”

Prince shook his head and replied, “No, it’s one of Miss Bridgette’s cars.” They were dumbfounded when they heard Prince’s words. Page couldn’t believe her ears. Her aunt’s family didn’t tell them that they were rich.

Page looked at Prince and asked, “Are you their driver?” Prince shook his head and replied, “I am Mrs Evans’ bodyguard.” They were shocked when they heard that. Why did she need a bodyguard?
