Third Person Pov

Philip had been trying to reach out to Celine since the last time he conversed with her, but to no avail. He was even daring enough to forget how unwanted his presence was at the company by Christopher; he went there to look for her at her office, but according to the people there, she had been absent for some days. Funny how he heard some passing rumors that she was moping in her house because her ex-husband married her ex-best friend, but Philip did not believe that, as the last time he saw Celine, she did not even once mention or talk about her ex. You’d think she was never married, or even question if she had ever loved the guy. He was calling her again on her phone, praying she would pick up his call this time.

Celine was in her house—if she could even call it her house—as Christopher had made it very clear that she was just a means to an end and that he controlled her life. She lay in bed all day, not motivated to do anything, as she was tired of life itself. At

    Third Person Pov “What’s so funny?” Christopher asked Veronica, feeling offended that he was being laughed at.“You,” she said, before going on another series of hysterical laughter because of the look on her brother’s face.“Veronica…” Christopher snarled at her, not liking the fact that his feelings were being mocked.Veronica took a minute to calm down before speaking. “Okay, I’m sorry. But you’re too obvious, and it’s funny how you’re so intelligent but still stupid in this area of your life.”“What do you mean?” he asked, confused.“I mean… you are in love with your wife, bro. I don’t understand why you married her, and I know you won’t tell me, but I know that the man I’m seeing in front of me right now, that’s expressing all these feelings, is a man who is in love with his wife,” she said, giving him a proud look that showed how little she now thought of him.Christopher ignored the fact that she was mocking him for not understanding his feelings and how proud she felt for out

    Third Person Pov“Celine, these few days I have been trying to get the media to stop talking about you and me together and to stop making it seem like you did something behind your husband, but the more my team shuts it down, the more the public talks about it. I’m sorry, there’s nothing more I can do,” Philip apologised to her over the phone.“It’s okay. You should just let it be. It’s not like my husband cares anyway,” Celine said dismissively, as she thought that Christopher did not give a shit about what the public was saying about them. Since his mum questioned her about it, he had not even tried to speak to her, so that made her draw the conclusion that he was with Joan, having the time of his life.“Wait, no, don’t say that. I’m sure Christopher is looking for ways to make this better,” Philip tried to make her see reason, as he could tell from her tone how disappointed she was in her husband.“You know what, let me call you back,” Celine said to him.“Wait, Celine—” Philip cou

  • Contract Lover    Chapter 99

    Third Person Pov Christopher was tired after sending his mum away. Everything felt overwhelming for him; it was like he was fighting the thoughts in his mind, and whenever he was close to understanding how he really felt, something would happen and everything would go back to nothing.Christopher just wanted someone who could explain to him what was going on in his head because, for the first time, he was extremely confused. He didn’t know what to do, and to top it all off, Joan had not stopped ringing his phone, trying to talk to him every chance she got.The news about Celine and Philip was concerning to his investors, but not too threatening.His mum kept going on about how Celine was not the right woman for him and how he should be with Rebecca instead.And Celine had now resorted to ignoring him, so he didn’t know what to do again. But surprisingly, amongst all the problems, the one he was most concerned about was the fact that Celine was ignoring him, and he couldn’t get her o

    Third Person Pov“Former eligible bachelor, now married, is being cheated on by his wife with one of his business rivals.”“Mrs. Celine seen with Mr. Philip holding hands in public—is it casual, or is there something more they’re not telling us?”“It seems Mrs. Celine is tired of her loveless marriage with Christopher, so she chose the next best thing.”This was all Celine had been reading about herself online. The news painted her marriage with Christopher as a loveless one, suggesting that maybe she had only married him for money—and since she was no longer getting it, she had moved on to Philip. At this point, Celine wished she had never taken those pictures with Philip, because now she had been painted as a gold digger.“Hello…” she answered the call as she sat back down on her bed, contemplating if she should go to work today with all the news about her. Overnight, she became the hottest topic in the city.“Celine, I’m so sorry about everything. My PR management team is working

    Third Person PovChristopher became very annoyed by Celine’s words. “Don’t get me angry, Celine. You know the thing with Joan is different, and you know how bad my relationship with Philip is,” Christopher said angrily.Immediately, Joan became agitated because, from her point of view, she could see Philip’s face spark with curiosity when he heard Christopher’s words. Joan did not want the truth behind her current relationship with Christopher to be exposed like this; otherwise, it would be seen as mere scandal, and she would be tagged as the other woman by the public. Joan preferred that Christopher break his relationship with his wife himself, and then they would come public with their own.“How am I getting you angry, Chris? Hmm? Would you care to elaborate?” Celine asked him confidently as her strong persona masked the pain she was feeling from seeing Christopher stand in front of Joan. She kept reminding herself that she should not feel this way, as he did not belong to her, and

    Third Person PovPhilip made sure he got to Celine’s office on time, and he brought coffee with him too.“You look chirpy,” Celine said to Philip immediately he came in, humming a song with a joyful look on his face, while she was putting some files into her bag.“This is for you, pretty lady,” he said to her as he gave her the coffee he brought. “Oh, and of course I’m happy—I get to see your beautiful face on this fine morning,” he complimented.Celine gladly took the coffee, with a blush on her face at his nice words. “Thank you, Philip, but I don’t think you should continue speaking words like that to me.” She gave him a pointed look before sipping the hot coffee that was made with extra cream, just how she likes it.“Speaking like what, pretty lady?” Philip asked as he feigned ignorance.“You know what I’m talking about, Philip, and besides, we are at my husband’s company. Not everyone will understand that you are just being nice. What if they assume the worst, or what if Christop
