This Time You Are Mine
/ This Time You Are Mine Chapter 198
'I now pronounce you husband and wife . Mr . Vincent Gray, you may now kiss the bride . '
Vince graced his finger on top of his lips as he remembers the kiss they shared in the garden that marks Yve as his wife .
"Finally!" He remarked alone as his wife suddenly stood up .
They are back in the ballroom where a complete set-up was places . Its arrangement fits the wedding reception well . As he looks around the place, he saw Haru commanding the staff and noticed the menu placed on the table is the one they tasted . His and Haru's eyes met and had an exchange of thoughts for a short while .
'So this is what you're up to with Yve?'
'Yes so don't even think of being jealous because she's totally into you . I would also not dare still your woman . '
Yve had changed into a different dress, a cocktail and simple one at that . It's a white lace without sleeves . The length of the dress is longer at the back side creating some frills . Her shoes are a bit higher than usual but contain laces and ribbons to fit in the dress perfectly .
"For the information of our dear groom, the invited guests knew about this surprise wedding which was the reason behind their prepared looks . Now, the bride isn't finished with her surprises . Let's start the reception of the wedding with a performance from our bride, Mrs . Yvory Smith-Gray . Around of applause, please . "
With that introduction, the spotlight of the ballroom focused on Yve who is now sitting by the grand piano . In the minds of everyone, with her posture, she is definitely going to play the instrument . On cue, her fingers touched the keys of the piano in an instrumental and started a narration .
"I believe anyone can do a background check and find out that my husband and I were once a couple back in college . Due to some unforeseen events and immaturity, we broke up . With all the things that happened to me, one song comes to my mind . This song is originally sung by Lil' Eddie . Now, I'm going to sing the song as a female version . It's entitled, Statue . "
Then everyone's eyes focused on her and nothing else can be heard inside the ballroom, only Yve playing the song's introductory keys . After a few seconds, her beautiful singing voice joined the melody .
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Yeah, ooh, yeah
When a day is said and done
In the middle of the night, and you're fast asleep, my love
Stay awake looking at your beauty
Telling myself I'm the luckiest girl alive

'Cause so many times I was certain
You was gonna walk out of my life, life
Why you take such a hold of me, boy,
When I'm still trying to get my act right?
As soon as she finish this first verse, she stared at her husband who's looking so sincerely focused on her alone and not her performance . Since Yve wanted him to notice the lyrics of the song and know the meaning of the song as well as her reason for choosing it, she made sure not to avert her eyes from his .
What is the reason when you really could have any girl you want?
I don't see what I have to offer
I should've been a season
Guess you could see I had potential
Do you know you're my miracle?
Despite being a famous song for the younger generation who are inside, they never dared to sing along with her . It wasn't because of fear . They respected the couple and knew that the lyrics of this song are the messages of Mrs . Gray to the CEO Mr . Gray . The song reach its chorus with Yve's emotional singing continues to fill the ballroom .
I'm like a statue
Stuck staring right at you
Got me frozen in my tracks
So amazed how you take me back
Each and every time our love collapsed
Statue
Stuck staring right at you
So when I'm lost for words
Every time I disappoint you
It's just 'cause I can't believe
That you're so wonderful
Don't wanna lose you, no
They are all in awe with Yve's singing voice and ability to play the piano . As they thought of her as a perfect president for an entertainment company, some of the business man inside who used to doubt her qualifications can't seem to look at her now . She proved them wrong once more .
Ask myself why are you even with me
After all the shit I put you through?
Why did you make it hard so with me?
It's like you're living in an igloo
But baby your love is so warm it makes my shield melt down, down
And every time we're both at war you make me come around
What is the reason when you really could have any girl you want?
I don't see what I have to offer
I should've been a season
Guess you could see I had potential
Do you know you're my miracle?
Oh, no
Every single day of my life I thank my lucky stars
God really had to spend extra time when he sculpted your heart
'Cause there's no explanation
Can't solve the equation
It's like you love me more than I love myself
Finally, the message of the song was heard by Vince loud and clear . Although he doesn't like the fact that his wife is still belittling herself and is still feeling regretful of the past, he also understands that this only mean that she never stopped loving him .
So as Yve continues to sing the latter part of the song, Vince signaled Edward who instantly approached his cousin . The husband whispered something to his right hand before the latter was seen leaving the venue in a hurry .
'I must not let the people think that only my wife can prepare a surprise . ' Vince thought to himself as he continues to listen to the final chorus of his wife's performance .
I'm like a statue
Stuck staring right at you
Got me frozen in my tracks
So amazed how you take me back
Each and every time our love collapsed
Statue
Stuck staring right at you
So when I'm lost for words
Every time I disappoint you
Baby, it's 'cause I can't believe
Boy, you are the reason
the reason for living
the reason for breathing
you're so wonderful
and I want you to feel it
'cause so bad I mean it
you're the reason for breathing
you're so wonderful
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah yeah yeah yeah
When the day is said and done
In the middle of the night, and you're fast asleep, my love
I'm the luckiest girl alive
'I'm the luckiest man alive because not only you agreed to marry me but you also prepared this wedding . ' Vince thought to himself and promised to make sure Yve lives her life comfortably in his arms forever .
