《Innocently Falling》Chapter 55: The pre-nup
Advertisement
After our vacation we went back to the states because Gideon still has an empire to run which he is currently complaining.
"What is the use of being a CEO if I can't even take a break peacefully. I should just fire their assess and-"
Yup. Goodluck to all the staffs that called him this last 2 weeks.
To Gideon's delight I went with him to the office. I mean I am now unemployed so I have more free time.
I still wave and greeted all the staffs that I recognize on the way to Olympus floor.
"Gideon I'll visit Mark and Eric first okay?"
I ask him while walking towards his private elavator.
"Sure love. Hurry back."
I kiss his cheek then got off to the 15th floor.
In 5 years some of the old staff are replaced or are retired already so I really did not recognize some of them.
Some staff stare at me openly. I am sure they are new.
I opened the printing room and shouted.
"I'm baaackkk!"
Both of my friends looks up and shouted.
"Ella!" They run up to me and we did a group hug and spin around.
"Hey! You forgot me!" Chain said.
He insert himself in between Mark and Eric.
After he settled in we resume our group hug.
We stop when I got a little bit dizzy from spinning around.
"I miss you guys! " I exclaimed.
"Wait!!" Eric grab my hand.
"Is that a freaking engagement ring?!" He shouted.
"Yes!"
"Oh my God! Our Ella is getting married!" Then we did another group hug.
"You'll be divirginized finally!" Mark exclaimed.
"Well about that.." all three of them look at me curiously.
"You mean you already did tha DID!" Mark shouted excitedly.
I shyly nodded.
"Our baby Girl is now a woman! I am so proud of you! So tell me Ella. Is he big?" Mark whispers.
Big? What Big? Big heart? Big bird? Big Mac?
"What the fuck? He's still our boss Mark. If you want to fly out through the window of the 80th floor continue your line of questions." Chad warned.
"And Ella it is Chase for the Nth time." CHASE accusingly stare at me.
Oops my bad. It is not my fault that I can't retain names with more than 4 letters. My limit is four letters with an exception for Blake and Gideon.
"Okay okay. I'll stop."
Instead of working we just chat for an hour before Chiz was called for his meeting in the accounting department.
"I'll go up now to Olympus floor but I'll visit you again!Bye bye!"
"Bye baby Girl and congratulations!" They both shouted.
I skip towards Gideon's office.
His blonde receptionist is still there and I still don't know her name. I mean I'll probably forget it after 5 minutes so what's the point of learning it.
Scott is not in his office so I went to Gideons.
I knock on the glass door and I heard the familiar whirling mechanic sound his door made whenever it was opening.
My ehem fiancè for real this time is in another meeting with Scott and another 2 older males maybe another business partners?
I skip towards Gideon and sat on his lap.
"Hi love. " he kissed my cheeks.
I lean my head on his chest and focus my attention to his meeting.
"Like I said Sir. It is much more safer if you have a pre-nuptial agreement in that way your assets will be secured if ever this doesn't work out." The older man who is slightly sneering at me said.

"Valentin the only thing that will not work out is your carreer and your life if you still insist on that bullshit." Gideon replied coldly.
"If I may intrude sir." The other one said.
"You may NOT." Gideon replied.
Clearly the man did not expect Gideon's reply since his mouth just stays open.
"You may close your mouth sir." I said to him.
Which he promptly closes.
"I've enough of your nonsense get out of my office.''
They both went out of Gideon's office including Scott.
I stare at Gideon. He is clearly frustrated.
"What is happenning Gideon?"
He sighs and he explained what is happening.
"Those two are my lawyers love. They want you to sign a pre-nuptial agreement. It is a document wherein you sign before you get married and if ever the couple seprated the money and the asset of the other one will be secured."
"Why not Gideon? if it means it will protect you I will sign it."
"Never love. I'd rather loose all my assets and belongings than loose you. What is the use of my money if you are not here with me?"
I stare at him processing all that he said.
"So you'd rather be poor Gideon?" I ask skeptically.
"Yes love. I'd chose to be poor as long as you're with me."
"You are absolutely crazy Gideon."
"Crazy for you Love."
I snort. So cheesy.
"But you know Gideon I'll be more comfortable if I sign something. I don't want to antagonize your lawyers."
"I'll think about it. Anyways love what do you want to eat?"
"You."
He stares at me clearly unsure if I am serious or not then immediately he carries me to his private room in his office.
Well. I got full that day but not with food.
*wink wink*
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am at our room lying on the bed staring at the ceiling.
I felt Gideon sat on my other side.
"Love would you please read a
this paper and tell me if you want to add or remove something."
He hands me a document and I started reading it and it was easier to read since it is in bullet form.
This document is purely nonsense.
"Gideon! What the heck?!"
I exclaimed.
"You want to add something love?"
He ask.
"NO! I want you to change everything!"
"Why? What's wrong?" He ask while grabbing the paper from me.
He scans the documents and said. "Huh maybe I should change the initial money maybe 20 million instead of 10 and 2 million per child." He murmured.
"No! You are basically giving me all the things that You've work hard for! 99% of your asset if ever we divorced? That is ridiculous!" I exclaimed.
"Then 100% love?" Is this man dumb or what?
"Gideon I don't want to take your money that's my whole point!"
He's still looking at me like I am speaking foreign language.
"Oh gosh. Can't you just decrease the amount that I am getting maybe $100 dollars per month instead of the previous amount? And I don't need that 10 million. What will I do with that?!"
"Nope."
"Think about this. What if in the middle of our marriage I did a sex change? You'll be with a man forever!"
"I don't care love. I'll still love you."
Clearly he is already decided and I can't change his mind so I sign the document.
"Thank you love! Are you sure you don't want to increase the amount that is written?"

"No!" I exclaimed. He had the audacity to laugh.
Crazy man.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
"If you ask me princess 10 million is not enough." Blake said when I told him about the pre-nup. We are currently eating lunch with him at a Michelin 5 star restaurant.
"That's what I said Blake but your sister doesn't want to change the amount." Gideon exasperatedly explained.
"You should milk him for his money Princess. He can definitely afford it. Your ring is only maybe what 100k at most? Tsk. You're too cheap James."
"Fuck you it's worth one million dollars. What about Cara's ring? I swear I saw it in Amazon." Gideon snidely replied.
"Cara doesn't want a big rock. So fuck you and if it is up to me I'll buy her at least 5 carat of diamond ring. And for your information I design that ring so it is one of a kind." Blake boasted.
"I see you design her ring that's why it looks ugly."
"Why you-"
"Stop!"
"Please we are eating. Continue your lover's quarrel after we eat."
They glare at each other for a minute then continue to eat our food.
"So Blakey you don't have a pre-nup?"
"We do but let's just say if my Cara leaves my ass I can't afford even a Mcdonald's regular meal."
"I hope she will leave your ass." I heard Gideon murmured.
I roll my eyes. This two at 33 years old are still both childish.
"Do you have a date planned princess?"
"Well I want it to be at Spring so all the flower are blooming."
I said dreamily.
"May I remind you that you have allergies to flowers and any plant life Ella."
Oh yeah. I forgot.
"We can chose a flowers that will not trigger your allergies love. I am sure we can find something."
Gideon assures me.
"So your wedding will be March?" Blake's ask.
"Yes. March 9 if Gideon's okay with it." I look at Gideon for confirmation.
"Love I'd marry you tomorrow If you want."
"Okay March 9. Well-" I bring out my list and showes it to Gideon and Blake.
"Wow Princess when did you list all these things?" Blake as while he scan my list for the wedding.
"Just last night. As you can see I want purple and pink for the color. I don't care what flowers they will use as long the color is purple and pink."
"We will use pink or purple tie Princess? I don't think pink is my color."
Gideon glare at Blake and said
"Well love. We will hire a wedding coordinator to help you with your dream wedding. We will find the best one."
We continue eating our lunch and Blake throws absurd ideas for my wedding. One of his Idea is let an Elephant carry me to the venue.
I am sure bringing an Elephant to the venue is illegal and why would I want an elephant in my wedding?
After a few days Gideon booked an appointment to a wedding coordinator he said I can meet them first because his meeting is "annoyingly running late" his words not mine. He will come after his meeting.
So here I am sitting inside a coffee shop all my favorite desserts are all laid out in front of me. Pies, cakes and Milkshake. Just in case I get hungry while discussing my wedding. As I am waiting I realize that the wedding coordinator is late.
After 15 minutes of waiting a woman who has a blond sleek bob wearing a suit and high heels walk towards my table. Another girl is with her but she is wearing a simple but still a classic suit. She has a reddish hair that is in a ponytail and she is wearing flats. The first woman removed her oversized sunglasses and offer her hand daintily for a handshake which I receive carefully. I'm not gonna repeat my graduation mishap. I greet and shake the other woman's hand also.
Before we sat down she stares at me from head to toe which is really uncomfortable. As I am readying myself to ask her a question she already starts talking.
"I'm Karen Reynolds. I am one of the top coordinators of Bloomington Events. I'll go straight to the point Miss?"
She looks at the woman beside her.
"Hernandez." She murmured.
"Right. Hernandez. We don't accept events that don't reach our standards and will boost our companies portfolio. Frankly our fee is expensive since we are at the top of this business and Your budget How much is it?"
I glance at the other woman in front of me and look at her saying "is this bitch for real?"'
She just bows down.
I rarely dislike people but this woman is the first one in my book who I dislike in the first one minute of our meeting.
I slice my triple chocolate cake slowly vying time to come up a nice reply to this woman who I wants to smash one of my pie on her face but I remind myself that the Pie is much too precious to be wasted on her face. I don't want to waste a good dessert.
"Well I am waiting Miss Hernandez." Cruela de vil snarled.
"Can't you see that my fiance is eating. You don't disturb her at any cost. You're being rude." I look up suddenly when I heard his voice.
Gideon was behind the vile woman and he gracefully sat beside me.
I smile and kiss him on his cheeks while he murmured "I am sorry I am late love." Then he press his lips on my forehead.
He grab my fork and he proceeds to cut my cake to small bite size then return the fork to me. I happily eat my food while I let Gideon eat Cruela alive.
This is his forte scaring the bejeezus out of people.
He grab my hand and turn my engagement ring so that the purple diamond is showing. I turn the rock facing my palm this morning to not get mugged. This is New York after all.
Gideon glare at vile woman and said.
"You are the wedding planner?"
Obviously she is shock that her client is Gideon.
She nodded. Her composure is ruined.
"I believe that when I book for an appointment I am expecting a professional and pleasant wedding coordinator. Clearly you are not. You are arrogant and so full of yourself."
"Even if you are on top of your game you don't boast it to your client because simply they are your client and they are the one you need to impress not vice versa. You don't belittle your client just because of their appearance. You know who I am clearly so our budget is and I expect that our wedding is fit for a queen. ."
She then stutteringly proceeds to talk about the wedding that she did while Gideon is busy feeding me my cake and pies. I know that he will not hire them. He is not even listening. He is more concerned if I needed another big cup of Oreo milkshake or not.
As she finish talking Gideon stare at the other girl and ask
"You are?"
"Rachel Adams sir a newbie."
Gideon nodded. "What are your ideas for my wedding from the list that my fiance provided."
Rachel nervously glance at Cruela beside her.
"If I may intrude Mr. Rosen-Hower."
"No you may not." Gideon glared at Cruela then switch his glance to Rachel. "Well?"
With a determined look Rachel proceeds to paint a Enchanted Forest/Garden Vibe for my wedding with flowers that will not trigger my allergies. When she mentioned that we can have the lantern festival the same in Tangled my eyes sparkles and I saw Gideon smirk.
"You're Hired Rachel. You will work with my fiance. LIke I said the budget is unlimited so whatever idea you come up I will make it happen. Even if we need to import materials from another country. The goal here is to make the most grandest, elegant wedding that is fit for my fiance. Whatever Ella wants follow it understood?"
Rachel nodded eagerly.
"And you." Gideon look at the stupefied face of Cruela "Your fired. I'll talk to your boss about your attitude. Oh I forgot to mention that her brother is the owner of Bradford enterprise so If I were you I'll clean up my act before you find yourself begging outside our buildings for scraps. ." She hurriedly stand up and run towards outside.
Rachel look at her boss worriedly.
"Let her be. I swear to you Ms. Adams that you will surpass Ms. Reynolds after my wedding is done. Understood?"
Rachel eagerly nodded at Gideon. She glance at the table and saw all cakes and Pies I ordered are all finish.
"As you can see My Ella loves food especially sweet things so keep that in mind. I on the other hand will do whatever My Ella wants me to wear or do. My only request is don't let My Ella know how much I will spend on our wedding and don't let her brother intimidate you into anything because my wedding will be a disaster and her brother is Crazy. Understood?"
Rachel nodded and after our pleasantries she bid her goodbye and promise to keep in touch after she finish my wedding board.
"I am so excited Gideon!"
"Me too love. Are you full or you want another serving of food."
"Oreo Milkshake please."
Gideon chuckled and said "As you wish love. I swear love for our wedding 6 servings of food is reserve immediately for you."
I hit his arm and shamelessly replied. "It is 8 servings Gideon including the dessert."
