Secret Billionaire’s Contract Bride: Marrying My Enemy’s Lover

Chapter 70

Today was finally the big day. All the prepping and planning had led to this one singular moment.

“Oh

my God.” Lucas came up beside me. He had his little makeup belt and was looking around the set. His eyes were wide with wonder. I had looked just the same when I viewed the site for the first time. “I knew these guys had a budget but damn. It makes what we had been working on child’s play.”

I placed my arm around his waist and gave him a side hug. “This is our moment. We earned this.”

He turned and hugged me face-on. “I can’t believe we’re here.”

“Well, believe it.” I smiled.

I was drinking in every single moment of the day. I didn’t want to take anything for granted. I knew where I had come from and I knew where I wanted to go.

“Let’s get ready for the first scene.” I pulled myself out of his hold and walked over to my chair as Gabriel and Tiffany got ready.

After my talk with Damon on the beach he was no longer worried about Gabriel, not that he ever had to be. The man was nowhere near the standard of my husband. And it wasn’t because he was bad looking-far from it actually. But I just didn’t get the same rush that I got from Damon.

I settled into my seat greeting my assistant directors. I picked up my mic and for the first time in this project, I called for silence.

“Okay everyone, let’s get this show on the road.” I nodded to the clapper loader on my staff.

“Right,” he moved into the frame, “Samuel and Jasmine war room scene, take one. Action.”

He rushed out of the frame and the cameras moved in on Tiffany and Gabriel.

“War?! Samuel, you threaten my people with war? How can you do this to me?” Tiffany walked to the table and sat at the head of the chair. She looked at the map that had been laid out to signify the kingdom of Versti (the world that Emma had created). “You say you care for me and that I am to be your bride but you allow your father to do this?”

“It is not war, Jasmine.”
