THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 2: CHAPTERS 51 – 60

BY SIR ZACH

CHAPTER 60

She eyed the door to the bathroom. Hearing the shower running, she got down from the bed and rushed to the balcony to make a call.
“Miles, how did this happen?!” She knew Jeslyn was married to Maverick but had no idea that Maverick would ever help her like this.

“I’m not sure what happened either.” Assistant Mile’s voice sounded confused from the other end.

“You are not sure what happened?! Didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on Jeslyn?!” She took a deep breath to calm her anger and asked: “So what plans do you have now?”

“I’m sorry Miss Christine, I had no idea that things would turn out like this, so I didn’t prepare a backup plan.”

“You gold-digging bitch!! If you don’t work things in my favor and ruin Jeslyn on that stage today, I’ll make you suffer!!” She disconnected the call and threw her phone in a fit of rage.

“Jeslyn, how dare you try to be successful? Who allowed you to outshine me?!… I didn’t permit you to appear in front of the world, looking like a winner. I refuse!!” She screamed.

Just then, the bathroom door opened and Young Master Wu poked his head out. “Christine, come join me.”

Christine swallowed her displeasure and smiled, “I’ll be there.”

In an office, a man was sitting in his CEO seat when his door was pushed open and his Assistant rushed in.

“Boss, you’d like to watch this!”

After the CEO watched the video of Maverick and co attending Jeslyn’s debut, he bolted up, took his jacket, and rushed out, heading to Jeslyn’s debut.

Lots of big shots left their works and homes for Jeslyn’s debut. Some of them wanted to interact with Maverick, and others wanted Maverick to notice them.

Their intern told them that Valen’s mother was back. If Maverick, who had never gone to places like this before or brought his son to the open, suddenly came out with his son and friends to attend a rookie’s event, then it only told the witty people that Maverick was supporting his beloved woman.

As for Damien, because he was masked, nobody saw him, but Jeslyn recognized him because the mask belonged to her husband.

He must have pressured Maverick to hand him that mask… shameless Damien!

Meanwhile, Manager Kate was shocked out of her senses at how quickly the tables had turned. She believed the bigshots were there because of Celestine because she had an inkling of how close Maverick and co were with Celestine, however, she couldn’t wrap her mind around the reason why they would agree to come to a rookie’s debut, also, with Valen. It didn’t make sense no matter how hard she tried to look at it from that angle, unless Jeslyn is directly connected to one of them, which she couldn’t believe.

She stared at Jeslyn for a long time, trying to imagine her being a girl to one of the men present today but couldn’t create a proper picture.

Maverick wouldn’t be with a bunny like Jeslyn, neither would Matt who seemed to not care about the affairs of the world. As for Inspector Fin, he already has a woman and she came with him. Then, there’s the masked man…

Manager Kate shook the idea off her mind and all of a sudden, her head snapped to Rex’s side. He was sitting close to Celestine.

‘Aha! I gat ya!’ So Jeslyn might either be dating Rex, or Rex has shown made his ‘affection’ for her known and is wooing her, which was why he didn’t want her debut to flop.

Bravo! However, Manager Kate would never allow Jeslyn and Rex to end up together because Rex is a breaker of women. A lot of women he messed with are either depressed right now or still obsessed with him.

She likes Jeslyn too much and won’t let Rex ruin her life. However, even though that was so, this opportunity that has presented itself must be taken advantage of to its fullest.

Jeslyn’s successful career path has to start today and she’s willing to set the bar to the highest, no matter what it takes.

Manager Kate’s motto: ‘If we are winning, then we must take it all!’ wasn’t just a saying, she means every bit of it and does just that.

Although she is Jeslyn’s manager, no one knows that yet, except Brian. And the way to announce that to the world is to start working.

She pulled out her phone and checked what was going on online. After seeing that Jeslyn was starting to get good words from lots of people, she smirked and made a call to the company’s PR.

“I want all the bad comments left on Jeslyn’s to be subtly taken down. Fill the comment section with our people and have them take control of the leading comments.

Let them announce that tickets to this debut are free and the real event will be starting after an hour.

Auto-delete any comment that has Christine, murder, accident, sister, Sparkle Entertainment, and everything else that could change the direction of the conversation to Jeslyn’s scandal…”

After saying a few more words, Manager Kate ended the call before walking into the stage from backstage.

Seeing Manager Kate on the stage with Jeslyn sent almost everyone into another wave of shock.

The woman, dressed in a classy and elegant skirt and shirt with her short hair, refused to be the Manager to other famous A–list actors after Celestine left. Now she’s Jeslyn’s Manager! What the hell!!

A lot of people started to wonder. If these bigshots didn’t see anything wrong with Jeslyn’s character or cared about what Jeslyn did to Christine, then who are they to condemn Jeslyn? Coming to that conclusion, Jeslyn won thousands of haters over.

When they found out that the tickets were free, in less than one hour, the venue was filled to the brim.

If Christine performed for tens of thousand, Jeslyn was would be performing for almost doubled the number of people that attended Christine’s debut

Of course, some were there to catch a glimpse of those gods present at the event.

On the stage, Manager Kate whispered something to Jeslyn’s ear before she turned and walked down.

Jeslyn was told to not start yet until an hour later. So to not keep the guest waiting for nothing, she raised the microphone and thought of entertaining them in a different way.

“Saying ‘wow’ will be undervaluing my shock, excitement, and anxiety right now. It’s extremely hard for me to believe that after all I’ve gone through, I’ll be debuting with this many people in attendance.” She smiled nervously.

“I’m even seeing a child here,” Jeslyn beamed and waved at Valen who was sitting in front. “Hello, handsome Young man, ouch, my heart is beating so fast, your cuteness is almost driving me insane… I’m honored to have you here today.”

She sounded really happy talking to Valen. Alot of people believed that the child would ignored her, causing the haters to laugh and mock her.

‘Hahaha… Look at that, she wants to grap a child’s thigh. How desperate can you get Jeslyn!?’

‘She’s a disgrace, trying to seduce the father through the son. I know these kind of people.’

‘Thats right, she’s in the Entertainment industry and knows that to become like our idols, she would need to sleep around but I’m shocked that her appetite is this huge. Going for the second branch of the Lu family, her guts is huge.’

‘I must say, Jeslyn is a scheming whore. For a moment I almost fell for her cute words to that child.’

‘What do you expect from a person who wanted to kill her own sister that loved her dearly. Nothing surprises me anymore.’

‘My stomach is already excitedly waiting to see how that child embarrass her. Hahaha..

What a phenomenal debut. Hahaha, I can’t stop laughing.’

‘Somebody tag VJ Cute, she needs to see this. Hahahaha…’

However, they were in for a great shock.

The camera focused on Valen who got up from his seat and started to walk to the stage with his flower.

‘Screw pretense, I need my Mom!’ he thought in his mind as he climbed the stage.

Jeslyn didn’t understand what her son wanted to do and hoped that he wasn’t coming for revenge.

Everyone, both online and offline, focused their eyes on the cute little doll walking elegantly to Jeslyn and when he got to her, he stood a few feet away from her and stretched out the bouquet.

“For you… I listened to your audition clips and debut song some time ago and I found that you had potential because your music put a smile on my face, so I brought my family here to appreciate you.”

Valen was referring to the debut she did at Delly Entertainment and the auditions with Celestine’s teacher, Mr. Ryan Shen.

‘Huh? What am I seeing? Did the child not embarrass our Jeslyn like the haters were going on about just a few seconds ago?’

‘Hahaha… Who is the joke now? Even the child knows the right thing.’

‘It’s sad that grown up adults can’t even see what a little child is seeing. They go about causing trouble for innocent Jeslyn and supporting that vile bitch. I will continue subscribing and waiting for your apologies after the truth has been revealed. I hope that your conscience burn you all when that happens.’

‘It’s not the eyes that are blind, it’s the soul.’

‘That’s right. Some of them knows that our Jeslyn is a nice person but they are just jealous and that jealousy had caused them to be bias.’

Jeslyn’s fans took over the comment section while the haters stayed quiet for a while. Some felt ashamed, some just didn’t want to be dragged, and others had other reasons… Especially the water Army that Assistant Miles bought.

On the stage, Jeslyn’s eyes turned watery and she closed the distance between them, then squatted in front of the kid. “You know, only my grandfather used to praise me back then even when my voice was ruined. He was like a husband who would eat his wife’s bad cooking with a smile on his face.

After he died, the blanket that shrouded me from the world was taken away, however, your words just now brought back that shield.” She smiled sweetly.

‘My son is the best,’ she thought.

“I’m your biggest fan… good that bad things happened to you, if not you wouldn’t have come here.”

Valen was soaking for himself and not her music. ‘Good those bad things happened to you, else I wouldn’t have known you’re my mother’ was what he wanted to say.

Jeslyn chuckled. “Hehe, I’m also glad that bad things happened to me, if not I would have continued to think that the world was a good place and I wouldn’t have met a godly child like you.”

Valen raised his right hand and slowly patted her head with his heart swimming in excitement. His gesture made some people laugh but the love that was being displayed by the two on stage made many cry.

It was too real and nobody thought it was staged because… who would dare to stage a play with Maverick’s proud son? Even though most people didn’t know Valen, they know the rotten child by name and his might had traveled through Country M before his aesthetic did.

At this point, many people were starting to doubt the story behind Jeslyn that the media had fed them with, while the Water Armies from Fearless Entertainment left no stone unturned to wash Jeslyn’s image clean.

‘Wow, so cute’

‘Why have I never seen such a happy sight before now?’

‘I thought Jeslyn was called vile? How is she this lovely?’

‘She went through so much, yet still has so much love in her heart for a child she didn’t know.’

Genuine commenters took it from here:

‘Am I the only one who thinks those two look alike?’

‘I think so too, their connection is so phenomenal!’

‘That’s what happens when one has a good heart.’

‘Jeslyn has always been like this. I became her fan the very first day I saw her save an old woman from a moving truck and in the end, got injured. That was way before she became a celebrity before those haters and brainwashed fools tell me she did it for publicity.’
