Chapter 11
“I’ve actually already set the date for the wedding, ma’am. I just wanted to surprise Madison with it,” Archie explained kindly. “It will be in three days on the Venizon Cruise, which would’ve docked at Yrando’s harbors by then. The wedding will be held on the ship.”“Venizon Cruise?” Pia asked. She had never heard of that ship before.Madison was excited. She asked Archie, “Venizon Cruise? Is that the world’s most luxurious cruise ship–Venizon Cruise?”“Exactly right.” Archie nodded proudly.Not everyone had the right to host a wedding on Venizon Cruise. Being able to do so was enough to demonstrate the Price family’s status in Yrando!“Oh my goodness! Is this true, honey?” Madison exclaimed excitedly, unable to control herself.Venizon Cruise was the world’s No. 1 cruise ship. The mere cost of building it was over ten billion dollars! It was even compared to a palace on the seas! What was more important was the fact that Venizon Cruise’s owner was the world’s richest man—Blackheart!“The world’s most luxurious cruise?” Pia’s eyes glowed with excitement. “You’re too kind, Archie!”“You’re amazing, Archie!” Skyler praised.“It’s my duty. All that matters is that Madison is happy,” Archie said cheerfully. He then gazed earnestly at Madison, asking, “Are you happy with what I planned, Madison?”“Of course I am!” Madison nodded firmly.“Then we’ll host the wedding first before getting the marriage registered, okay?” Archie asked.This was part of his plan as well.Archie would use the wedding to make Madison soften up towards him. When Archie had gotten all that he wanted, he would then erase Madison from the picture.The marriage registration was never going to happen! It was nothing more than another way to delay things.“Okay!” Madison was feeling unbelievably touched by Archie’s plans. “I love you so much, dear!”She kissed his cheek.“I love you too,” Archie said with a smile.Everything was going according to plan.“By the way, honey, Venison Cruise has never docked at Yrando’s harbors. Why would they dock this time?” Madison asked curiously.A cruise ship as extravagant as Venizon Cruise wouldn’t dock at just any harbor. It would at least need to be some district harbor and not for more than a day.So why would it choose to stop at Yrando?“Based on what I know, it’s because Blackheart is welcoming a mysterious big shot,” Archie replied.“What kind of big shot could make Blackheart himself welcome them personally?” Madison was shocked to hear this.And this big shot was in Yrando, too!“That I’m not too sure about.” Archie shook his head.“Then will we be meeting them during the wedding, dear?” Madison asked excitedly.“Of course. It won’t be difficult to meet Blackheart himself at least once,” Archie said proudly. “Blackheart will personally give us his blessing on that day.”It wasn’t due to Archie’s own arrangements, but rather because Blackheart would always congratulate newlyweds that got married on Venizon Cruise. Not many people knew about this, however. Archie only found out after liaising with Blackheart’s secretary.“You’re amazing, honey! I love you so much!” Madison cried. Obviously, she didn’t know about this. What she would give to be pregnant with Archie’s children right now!Blackheart was the world’s wealthiest man! Someone Madison could only dream of meeting!As for that mystery person Blackheart was welcoming, Madison hoped she would be lucky enough to meet them in person.If Madison could make connections with them, she’d really be part of elite society! She was confident in herself in both looks and capability!…Meanwhile, Cameron moved into Azure Residence’s most luxurious villa, Azure Villa No. 1. It was surrounded by mist, giving the place an ethereal air. After five years, Cameron finally returned to the villa.He sat on the couch, suddenly feeling all sorts of emotions.When night fell, Cameron decided to make dinner as he was hungry. But there weren’t many ingredients in the fridge.Not wanting to bother anyone so late at night, he decided to order takeout.But due to Azure Residence’s tight security and resident-privacy policy, the delivery guy couldn’t enter the neighborhood.Cameron could only go outside to get his food.After getting his takeout, Cameron prepared to return to the villa.Just then, a Rolls Royce slowly drove towards him. In the car was none other than Archie and Madison.They had seen Cameron from a distance away.Madison’s eyes were filled with disdain as she looked at Cameron. She said, “It’s him again. My mother was right–he’s trying to linger around me! Can you stop the car for a bit, dear? I want to set things clear with him so he never bothers me again.”Madison didn’t want Cameron to interfere with her relationship with Archie.“I’ll go with you,” Archie said, intending to make his stand clear in front of Cameron.Yes, Archie was using Madison as a pawn, but he wasn’t going to let some other man set his eyes on her in the meantime.The Rolls Royce came to a stop in front of Cameron. Its bright lights made him narrow his eyes.After getting used to the light, Cameron saw two people getting out of the car–Madison and Archie.Madison stormed over to Cameron in her heels, yelling, “I haven’t gotten back at you for hurting my brother yet, and here you are shamelessly stalking me?“And how dare you hang up on me earlier today? You still say you don’t want my family to bother you? Why are you following me now?”“Following you?” Cameron snorted.He hadn’t even begun saying how unlucky he was to have met Madison again today.“Aren’t you?” Madison asked, glaring at Cameron.“Is there something wrong with me living here?” Cameron asked flatly,“You live here?” Madison was stunned. When she saw the takeout in his hands however, she snorted, “You’re so poor you can only order takeout, yet you’re still trying to act like you’re rich? Tell me then, which villa are you living in?”“Azure Villa No. 1,” Cameron answered.“No. 1? Hahaha! He says he lives in Azure Villa No. 1, dear!” Madison cackled as if she just heard a great joke.“Hmph!” Archie snorted in disdain.Azure Residence was an extremely elite neighborhood. Even Archie could only manage to buy a villa situated near the shoulder of the hill.Azure Villa No. 1 was owned by Blackheart himself!“You’re so shameless, Cameron Morgan! Do you have any idea who owns Azure Villa No. 1?” Madison jeered.“I told you–me,” Cameron stated.“I truly have had enough of you, Cameron. Have you seen yourself recently? You’re seriously able to afford Azure Villa No. 1?” Madison was angered by Cameron’s words.Did Cameron think the two of them were fools?“What does being able to afford a place here have anything to do with you?” Cameron retorted calmly.“You!” Madison was infuriated. She decided to not hide the truth anymore and said, “Blackheart, the world’s richest man, owns Azure Villa No. 1!“By the way, I’ll be marrying Mr. Price in three days’ time. Please don’t show up around me anymore like some stray mutt. You’ve long lost your chance to be with me!”“You’re getting married? Congrats,” Cameron said with a faint smile.Madison was taken aback.She hadn’t expected him to have this sort of attitude.It made Madison feel like she was punching thin air. The more she felt like that, the angrier she got.Because what Madison wanted to see was Cameron embarrassed and sad after knowing she was going to marry Archie, not as calm as he was right now!
