Alexis POV
Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you.”
Trisha and Diana woke me up with their cracky song voices and sprinkles of water
“Tam baptized already.” I re–informed them with a sleepy voice
“We know, they chorused with laughter.
“Here is a cup of coffee for the celebrant.” Trisha handed over The glass of coffee in her hand.
“Thank you
Purr I splash out the coffee from my mouth due to laughter.
Diana, brought up one of my terrible birthday party y scenes and we all gist and laughed to the point that the sound of our laughter danced with echoes in the room.
“Thank you.” I appreciate them
Trisha got a call from her stylist.
I need to go now so I can fit my dress. You know this stylist can be, I don’t want any disappointment,” she said and dressed in something casual but presentable.
She left me and Diana on the bed, and we gist and talked more.
I took my phone to see if Hunter had returned any of my calls or messages.
My countenance changed the moment I realized that there wasn’t any call or thessage from him.
“Calm down.don’t let it bother you. I’m sure he will reach out, you know he is a workaholic,” Diana muttered.
“Yes you’re right.”
“What?” I asked her, seeing her facial expression
“I need to use the restroom,”
“I will be surprised if you don’t visit the restroom.” I teased her.
“Ewwww_Diana run to the toilet before you suffocate me with your farts,”
She quickly ran into the toilet.
Today is my day. I will not let anything or anyone ruin my day, not even Hunter, I said to myself.
Auger was welling up in me, because I have been trying to reach Hunter since yesterday and I have dialed his number so many times now, he neither picked my call or replied to any of my messages.
Hat’s not because of what I stand to gain from marrying Hunter, I shook off the thought and picked my vibrating phone.
“Hello, Dard with a cold and low voice.
“No, my fiance will be there, you know you cannot be seen around me at least not now that I’m trying to work out things,” I

said after a few minister of talking on the phone and hung u
was that?” Diana asked from the bathroom.
Who was
“Aint you supposed to be focused on emptying your bowel in that toilet? Why are you eavesdropping on my talk?”
“I could hear you from here,” she said
“You silly focus on what you’re doing in there, it’s nobody serious,”
“I hope so” she said, her voice muffled by the sound of running water.
11 looked at my face in the mirror and smiled to myself.
“By the time I’m done with my party I will have the whole time to deal with that low life of an assistant,” I muttered to
myself
“What did you say!” Diana asked from my back.
“Nothing”
“Alex, are you okay?” she asked with a concerned tone.
“Yes, I’m okay,
No you are not. I heard you say something about the assistant,”
“Alexis don’t do anything stupid I have told you,” she said, hugging me from behind.
“I know Hunter loves her so much, do you know that when the last time I went to Hunter’s house, I met him dead drunk.”
“When I asked Andrew as to what made Hunter drunk he didn’t mention it,”
“So it made me wonder and became curious as to what would have made him drunk because it’s been a long time since he gut drunk” I explained.
“Out of my curiosity I payed details attention to all of his moves that night, do you know that in his sleep he kept on calling
her name.”
“Meaning”
“What do you mean by asking me that? Meaning that whatever it is that made him that drunk has everything to do with her,” I explained more
“Yes I understand but don’t let that ruin the day for you and all your well wishers,” she said with so much concern.
“Yea, right,”
“Let the joy you woke up with continue, let nothing snatch it away from you, common girl you are a year older today, you are getting old and wrinkles are beginning to find their dwelling place on your skin,” she teased.
“Now I think I have the idea of a perfect birthday present to gift you,”
“And what is that perfect gif”
“Anti–aging kit of course,” she said with a funny facial expression

My face brightened with a smile.
“You silly,” I said with laughter wide spread across my face.

Yes that is good, I wanted to call you before now, make sure everything goes well,” I said
“What do you mean by the caterers ain’t picking up your call, please just do anything. I will not take in any disappointments at least not today.” I yelled on the phone.
“You better do”
“I will be at home, the artist can come in any time,”
I hung up the call.
“Who was that?” Diana Asked with curiosity.
“Who else if not the event planner,”
“What agam this time?”
“That she can’t reach the caterers.
“How can she not reach the caterers today of all days,”
Like, exactly my point, in have told her to do any magic she can to avoid any disappointment because I have a lot already to handle, adding her to the list will not be good for her and her entire agency,”
“Whoa! Calm down, I don’t think it will get their, the good thing here is that it’s still morning she can get a different
