Betrothed To My Enemy Chapter 8
Martin's povI was pissed this morning when Brooke didn't show up for an important meeting. The man and woman who wants to do business want a family man, not someone who sleeps around. I was known for being a playboy and this old man don't believe me when I said I was happily married.I told them I was married but yet he didn't believe me and told me to bring my wife with me for the next meeting. I phoned her office and Katherine answered the phone telling me she will give Brooke the message.I feel like a complete dick for the way I handle the whole situation after Brooke have left I received a phone call from her driver. He told me about everything that had happened this morning saying he knows for a fact that Brooke didn't get any messages.I decided to make dinner for her to show her I'm sorry. I remember the way she was checking me out it made me feel something knowing I had some sort of an effect on her. I have always wanted her to look at me that way but sadly Daniel was the o

Brooke's povIt was Friday which meant Jason will be visiting me this weekend. I already talked to my parents and they didn't mind I think they are looking forward to the alone time.I was on my way to my parent's house and I can't help thinking about Martin. We are actually talking to each other without trying to kill one another and I must admit it does feel nice.I haven't talked to Daniel for a while now and I somehow think it's because of what he and Katherine are doing behind my back. Katherine was acting strange this morning at the office. She was kind of mean to me but I just shrugged it off.Martin left early this morning so I didn't see him he texted me telling me had important meetings the whole day. Yes, we exchanged numbers yesterday to communicate and avoid further incidence like the other day."Mrs. Taylor we are here," Samuel says as he pulls up the driveway."Thank you, Samuel," I smiled as I got out.The front door opened and Jason came running towards me, "Brookie!"

Samantha's povIt's Monday morning again. I groaned getting up I hate Mondays there's always something going wrong, especially for me.I haven't seen Martin since Friday night, Yesterday I took Jason out to the movies, we went ice skating, and shopping and we went to his favorite restaurant.I took him home around six much to Clair's dismay now the look on her face when I showed up that late was priceless she wanted to scold me but my parents were home so she had to keep her act up.I stayed there for a while catching up with my parents but something seemed off like they were hiding something from me. We talked about the upcoming fashion show and their business which I found weird because my father never pressured me to take over from him one day."Hey Brookie, look I have something to tell you," Nathaniel says as he closes the door behind him.I look up from my computer taking my glasses off, "What?""I don't know how you will handle this," he says scratching his head.I roll my eyes

Brooke's povI woke up feeling an arm wrapped around me as I was cuddling someone. I frown wondering who is in my bed.I lay still as I try to remember, last night the fire I know we were downstairs and somehow I managed to get into bed, or did Marrin carry me to bed?I remember I had a nightmare last night and that's when I realized who I was cuddling I immediately shoot away from him but instead of laying on the bed, I ended up falling off face first."Ow!" I screamed as I rub my face."Are... Are you all..alright?" Martin asked as he try not to laugh but he failed miserably.Looking back up at him I notice his hand covering his mouth, "Yup just fine I was just kissing the floor good morning," I sarcastically answer him feeling myself blush.Ugh, do I always have to embarrass myself like that?"Are you sure you are alright?" He asked with an amused smile."Yup totally," I say standing up from the floor."Don't go," he said as I walked to the bathroom.'I'm not going anywhere but you

Brooke's povThe next morning I got up early to meet my employees at one of the restaurants not far from the office.I walked in and saw everyone there including Katherine thinking about it I haven't heard anything from her since the fire."Good morning everyone thank you for meeting me here," I greet them with a smile.They all greeted me back-friendly, "Did you order yet?" I asked them to which they reply with a no.I called a waiter over telling them to order whatever they want and that I will pay for it.As soon as the waiter left I began, "You all heard about the fire, we lost all our designs everything that means there won't be a fashion show to host this weekend," I sight thinking about all our hard work that was now ashes."Will we still be able to work?""Do we still have work?" "What are you going to do now?" All these questions came to me at once I understand their concerns."Yes we will still be able to work those of you who do the designs will be working from home and k

Now my husband has already taken care of everything over the past week. You will find your offices with your names on them," I smile as I think about Martin and Jackson putting off time from work to prepare my new place.Everyone starts clapping as I finished speaking."Now we have a lot of work to do, I still want to launch our new lingerie line but we will take it slowly and I want everyone to be careful to who you talk I'm not sure who started the f

Last night when I came home Brooke wasn't at the dining table and I knew she was mad.Yesterday before Brooke came over Daniel asked me if Katherine could be my secretary while Leag goes on maternity leave. I didn't want to but something seemed a bit suspicious.Flashback to yesterday.Daniel came knocking on my door, "What do you want?" I asked him a bit harshly but I don't care."Hello to you too," he said walking in and sitting down at the chair. I look up from my computer and saw him looking around the office."What can I do for you?" I asked again."Have you found a replacement for Leah yet?" He asked still looking around."Not yet and what do you mean by replacement? Leah will be back after a few months," I informed him."Oh, yes I forgot but anyway did you find someone yet?" "Why?" I asked looking at my computer again. Fuck I have so much work I don't have time for small talks."My girlfriend Katherine is looking

Martin's povCharlie reached my place in a few minutes, "Where is she?" "I will show you."We walked upstairs and we reached her door, "She is here,"."Martin waits outside," Charlie told me when I wanted to go in.I waited for about twenty-five minutes when the door opened, "How is she? Will she be alright?" I asked."Martin calms down, yes she will be just fine. She has flu and fever. I gave her medicine for the fever just now, she needs rest. I will give you the prescription for the medicine she needs to take after every meal."I feel relief after hearing what she said, "Thank you, I will quickly grab the pills."Charlie chuckled, "When you phoned me I thought she's dying the way you went on."I rub the nape of my neck and feel a bit stupid, "In my defense, I'm not a doctor.""Martin, it's alright I'm just teasing you. I'm glad to see you care about her," she smiled handing me the paper."Of course I do, but as a friend yes," I scold her."Oh please, even a blind person can tell y
