Chapter 6
Regan pov: -
After getting ready for our night, Shaw and I waited for the taxi to pick us up and take us to the downtown club.
We were sitting in our dorm. Shaw was doing her minor last-minute touch-up; on the other end, Well, I am incredibly bored. So I'm just blowing air out of my mouth, making weird faces while I'm looking at Shaw load her eyes with mascara, and I am just playing a little music in the background so I won't look too awkward.
Beep beep ……….
I heard the car horn. 'Shaw, I think our ride is here, 'I said, sliding off the bed. I am in no mood to go out anymore. But I already said I will. I can't back down now.
I feel so tired.
Shaw turned back to me with horror on her face.
"Omg, the cab is early ray, I'm not even ready" Shaw's face turned pale in a matter of milliseconds, making me raise my brow at her in question!!
"Shaw!! I mean, really!! You are practically wearing your whole makeup box on your face" it slipped out my mouth before I could catch it in the air, and shock struck me.
*gasp*
"I did not!" Shaw screeched hurt crossed her eyes. I practically imagined myself self-kicking myself for saying the words.
The hack girl lost a boyfriend today and cried the whole Thames, and you are whining because you're feeling tired now. Was it not your idea!! Now pull the stick out of your non-existing ass and make it up to her.
I scolded myself for a moment in my brain and nodded my head like it was my mom scolding me.
Shaw was looking at her feet like she was going to pop another finger at any moment. Almost on the verge of crying again. We heard another round of honk from outside, making me snap back in reality.
"I'm sorry Shaw. I didn't mean it like that. What I wanted to say, my best friend is that... Uhhh, that you are extremely hot and beautiful with or without this." I complimented, pointing to her half-used makeup kit.
"You don't need this, so please forgive me...... pleaseeeeeee," I said, giving her my doe eyes making her chuckle.
Yes, I patted my back for my victory of making her smile.
"You're a dork. Do you know that ray?" She punched me lightly, making me laugh too.
"Now let's go, or the cabby will drive away. "I pulled open outdoor, making my way out.
"Yeah, ok, let me grab my clutch, and I'll meet you outside in a minute 'she said, walking to her room to get her clutch while I made my way out.
I waited for her to come up fast, tapping my foot on the concrete sidetrack like a five-year-old kid.
"What's taking her so long I thought to myself. Subsequently, five more minutes passed, and then she appeared from the door, closing it behind her and locking it.
"Sorry I was not able to see this beauty 'she told me, pointing at her clutch. I shook my head and opened the door to get in the cab; she did the same after me.
When we were inside the cab, the cabbie asked us where we wanted to go. I gave the cab driver the address of the club, The Dark Night Club. We were driving to our location; my mind was planning the Revenge that we would take from my friend's boyfriend. No crash that "X BOYFRIEND" and how sorry that Richie's rich boyfriend of her will be after we're done with him. A devilish smirk charmed my face as the perfect idea crossed my brain.
The taxi driver parked the cab a few steps away from the club. I paid him and made our way to the club, standing in the line. We were making little jokes about our college and how we were glad that it was over. Shaw told me how she is going to her family's house as it has been a long time since she saw them last.
When it was our turn, we showed our IDs to the bouncer, and he granted us a tired nod allowing us in.
Inside the club, it was dark, and the music was blowing my brain, and it was so crowded like hell. I was finding it difficult to make my way, but Shaw pulled me to it anyway.
Shaw ordered six tequilas for her at the bar and looked at me for my permission.
'Oh no, Shaw, you know I don't drink' I shook my head and leaned over to the waiter and asked him to give me some water instead.
He looked at me with suspicious eyes, Yeh you know it's hard to see these days when people go to the bar and don't drink!! People like me... I gave him my goofy grin, and he eventually handed me a bottle of water to me.
Shaw completed her shots in an eye blink, looking up for some salt after that, and made her way to the dance floor, pulling me along with her.
After that, the whole night was a blur. We danced, she drank, and we danced again, I saw some boys playing beer pong, and Shaw gladly joined in. I think she even won one of the games.
So, when I came to my senses, it was already half-past two. I lost Shaw; I don't know where. She was about to go to the washroom the last time I saw her. I searched the whole club for Shaw and found her in the private section. She was sitting on a guy's lap sucking his face every bit as if it were a lollypop, ewwwwwwww.
"Shaw, we got to go' I said as I stepped closer to her. She ignored me continued her kissing, and I felt my food ready to appear. Yuck... (I guess I am going to throw up).
"Shaw, let's go' I tapped her shoulder, finally getting her attention. 'Noh Regan, I want to stayyyyy, go, and I will be back by morning. 'she said, giving me a lopsided grin.
I ignored her, pulling her with me getting out of the club "hey, what do you believe you are doing, Regan" she asked, stumbling at every step she took, making it hard for me to balance her and me from falling on our faces.
'I'm saving your sorry ass, and you will follow me if you don't want to get another heartbreak,' I said, giving her a strained look. She granted me an o-face and nodded.
'I'm sorry ray and thank you for doing all this for me ray. I love you ray' she said, passing me a bear hug.
I rang a cab and got Shaw and me back to our dorm, undetected. Tomorrow she will be in a massive hangover. But the Revenge we will take on her ex will fix it for sure.
I changed my cloth and fell on my bed; within a few minutes, I was in a deep sleep.
Chapter 7 ..................... Regan pov:- The following day I woke up with the sound of Shaw throwing up her gut out in our bathroom. I got up for my long day. Her throwing up her gut sound was making me dizzy. I knocked on the bathroom door without going in. I am not sure if I can take the sight of puke and be fine in the morning. "Shawna, are you ok? Do you want me to get you some water and maybe some pain relievers?" I asked. I am also in need of some pain relievers myself. Last night was a struggle. I barely slept, and I am facing repercussions.
............. . chapter 8............... ............Alex pov: -The dinner at our house went slow and boring, my mom as always was talking about her women's club, forcing the girl April on me, telling me how talented she is, how I should take her out on the dinner, and what no!.On the other end, my dad was sitting on the head seat of the table. Trying his best at controlling his laughter while taking in my miserable state. Throwing me a sorry look once in a while. I was giving him a look that says 'We need to talk, Right Now' him.
Chapter 9 Alex pov: - I was in my office, going over the recent month's Market capitalization date and finalizing my following investment plans for a new branch in Toronto when my best friend, Roman, barged in like he owned the place. "Hey man, what's up? I heard you had been to a dinner with your family last night," he said with that menacing smirk. I so wanted to punch that smirk off his face a lot. But I ended up shrugging it off like dirt on my Armani blazer. His smirk widened at my reaction, taking as much amusement out of this situation. "What's so funny" I murmured—not making eye contact with him. His smirk became a smile
chapter 10 After dropping Maria off, I drove back to my office in the hope of doing some pending work. The past humiliation done by that girl is still playing in my mind, just like a ridiculous movie, which you never want to watch again. Making a left turn, I parked my car in my private parking lot. I took my elevator to my office floor. When I was about to enter my cabin, I had this weird sense that something was wrong or about to go wrong. I dismissed it and took my seat. I started my computer to do something productive work. It was around 4 PM, and I was darn hungry. I wrapped up the files, about to stand up to find something to eat when I heard my secre
Chapter 11......................What the hell just happened?Am I sentenced to marry some random female in a month?No, that can never be possible!! My dad can't do this to me. I am the CEO of this company, and he threatened me to take 'MY' position.My train of thought came to a halt when Roman came in with an amused expression on his face. The amusement turned to a frown in a mere second when he saw my face.I threw my phone at the wall, ending its life as it shattered like a puzzle. I was furious, and I wanted to take this burden off my shoulders. Maybe a drink would calm me the hell down."Whoa man, What crawled up your butt and died," Roman said, raising his hands in surrender. "I heard your dad was here. Is he the reason your panties are in a twist?" I gave him me (don't fuck with me right now, look) to shut him up. He made himself comfy on my leather couch."Tell me, Alex. You know you can share anything with me. I'm t
Chapter 12 ............. Regan pov:- "Regan, come to my cabin this instant" was the words that came out of my boss Liam. When he left, that big rich pants looked a lot more frustrated than before. Without wasting any time, I made my way towards his cabin and knocked twice. "Come in" He calls out in a squeaky tone. I entered his cabin to find him against the window, looking out in the dark of night, his face half-covered in the shadow, making him scary. "Please have a seat," he told me. I took my seat in one of the red leather seats opposite his and folded my hand on my lap. "What is it, Liam? What did he say?" I ask him in a bratty tone, to which he just got a bit more frustrated? I saw his shoulders getting tensed, and I knew that very moment that the news, which he was about to give me is not very pleasing for me. "You are fired, Regan," he said. His word came out like he was in pain. My jaw dropped at
Chapter 13The next day I woke with the sound like someone was banging at my door or more like trying to break it. I stepped out of bed, making my way to my front door, trying to listen if the person who was there. Is it some bank people here to collect money? This early?When I found no sound of some talking on the other end, I opened the door to find a huge guy standing in front of me wearing all black. He looked like he came directly from the man in the black movie."Yes, what do you want, Mr. Men in black," I asked, opening my door a little more. I was not wearing much, just a huge shirt which came to my knees. But I right now don't give a dam on it.I could not say much when that hunky bunky guy stepped up and covered my face with a cloth. I tried to fight and not to breathe, but after a couple of seconds, my lungs started to give up, making it hard not to take a breath, but I did eventually.My body became tired, and my eyes started to drop, and in a
Chapter 14Alex pov:Today is when I'm going to execute my plan of getting my fake wife. I know it's not going to be easy to implement. However, it's now or never chance. It's not like I have another option or my parents left any loophole in their threat for me to manipulate. I want to keep my post as long as I'm alive.My bodyguard called me, telling me that the girl was in my basement office. She was now getting conscious. So I reviewed my plan for the last time after a bit of contemplating it. I made my way to my basement office, signaling my advocate to be there on my call. He will be the one to discuss the claws on my behalf. I make the contract to benefit me in all ways. I spent my whole night making that thing.The elevator stopped, and Roman entered, giving me a wink, but I could see the concern on his face well enough to know that he cared."You ready," he asked, giving me a concerned look. But I know he is more bothered about that girl than me.I saw his
