ELAINE.

I adjusted the strap of my bikini and stared at the man beside me with pity.

“Here” handing him a sunscreen in a stick formula so he could apply over his exposed areas.

Today was the only day since we got to South Korea that we were just lounging and resting.

Turns out that I’m the partner that likes to explore and cram a thousand activities on vacation, while he is the one who thinks it’s an opportunity to rest and reset in a new location.

  • For Better or Buisness   Chapter 90: The twins

    Love at first sight. Love at first touchLove at first smell. I stared at the little bundles that were in my arms and I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t believe this was possible but the moment I saw them both, I already knew my life forever changedTwins. We surely didn’t know when we decided not to do a gender reveal and wait till the end that we were going to have two children. I stared at the tiny babies and my eyes were almost closing out of tiredness but I only struggled to keep it open because of the hand that was gripping mine tightly and the soothing words been spoken. “You’ve done so well, Peristeraki!” “My little dove, look what we made” he cooed, his eyes so tender as he stroked the little girl's cheek. “We did so good, didn’t we?” My eyes watered and he kissed my forehead in response. “No more fights,” he looked at me, and I could see the plea in his eyes“This is our clean slate.” That was the last thing I remember nodding to before drifting off into sleep, as after

    Nik“Eva.” The name rolled off my tongue with so much disgust and I hope she could tell how much it was that I hated her, that I still hate her. It’s a present continuous forever tense. She smiled, her bloody red lips parting to reveal pearly white teeth that could have been fangs for all I care. Because she might look the same as years ago, barely aging on the surface but she was a blood sucking demon underneath. I took great care to school my expression into a mask so that she couldn’t tell how much she affected me. “It’s been ages.” She drawled. “You have less than a minute to say what it is you want to say. Once the Valet gets here and my car is outside, best believe I’m done with this conversation.” She sighed and dropped the mask and for a split second, I could see the woman I loved underneath the Botox and layers of makeup. The woman I gave my heart to for the first time. “Nik, I’m sorry.” Her eyes watered and I’m not sure if it was to trap me again. “Me too.” I whispe

    “Yes I can, but what does that have to do with making me something?” “Perhaps the fact that I’m not your maid, or subordinate who you can order and they will jump up and say yes sir at any freaking time of the day.” I fired and his entire expression changed. He wasn’t expecting that reply, and it was immediately clear how pissed he was. “Careful Elaine.” He warned sternly while stalking forward to come to a stop just where I was. He stood there for a while, waiting for me to say anything else, but his daunting presence and the dark look in his eyes actually scared me much more than I cared to admit. He was taunting me, waiting for me to say one more word. I know he wouldn’t hurt me because of the baby, but I’m sure he could do other crazy things to me if he wanted to. I sighed heavily and turned back to face what I was doing, ignoring him as much as I could before he stalked out of the nursery. He didn’t come back home that night. Maybe, just maybe I’ve finally pushed him into

  • For Better or Buisness   Chapter 87: Ignoring the Elephant

    Chapter 87. Eva. My heart knocked against my ribcage in a loud thump as the question slipped out of me. He could try to deny that it was no one but I noticed the way he gripped the edge of his seat harder. The way his features shut down and you could tell that he didn’t want to be readable. I don’t know who the person was, but it’s clear that it was a woman and something happened. “A wannabe business partner..” He said coldly before turning away from me. Liar. Big, fat, liar. The person who didn’t want me turning away from him, was now turning away from me. I hissed loudly, “you don’t even rate me enough to not lie to me. At least try giving me a better excuse.” He sighed, and squeezed his temples before turning again, “it’s an old friend” “Friend from where?” Which friend was comfortable enough to stain his shirt. Someone who hated physical contact suddenly didn’t mind hugging people. “Do you want me to tell you the history of everyone I’ve ever met?” He snapped. And th

    NikThe moment we were transferred and settled in, I didn’t expect her next statement, “you can go home you know, I’ll be fine here till morning.”I turned to her surprised. Why in God's name will I go home and leave my pregnant wife alone with no one to care for her at the hospital. “I’ll be fine here.” I answered trying hard not to make the situation worse. “Please just go home.” She said again, and it was clear that she was angry and didn’t want me here. I know how it looks, especially with the amount of time she called me and I show up here smelling like another woman with her lipstick stain on my shirt. She looked at me weirdly, and my eyes followed her gaze to the stain on my shirt. I had the urge to wipe it off, but doing that right now was just going to make the entire situation more worse than it presently. “I’ll be fine here.” “Please just go home.” She said again, and it was clear that she was angry and didn’t want me here. “I’m sorry that I wasn’t reachable w

    NikI need your help, Nik” her voice trembled and I just knew that whatever it was, it was going to cost me.My phone started ringing again and it was the perfect reminder that I needed to get the hell out of here. “How much?” I looked around, as a creepy weird sensation was beginning to bother me at the back of my neck. It felt like I was being watched. “Nik please, let’s just sit down.” She tried to pull me towards a chair but I refused to budge. “How. Fucking. much.” I enunciated each word carefully, this close to losing my mind and cool. “One million dollars.” She said casually and batted her eyelashes and it was so comical that I almost threw my head back and laughed. “You’re still such a greedy bitch, I hope you know that ?” She nodded, tearing again. “Now, you owe me. When I call you, your only answer should be where or when or what. I owe you and your stupid ass husband. I want you to not forget that.” I spat out and waited till the gravity of what I was saying sunk in,

    CHAPTER 27: ELAINE. I woke up to being carried from the bed I fell asleep into the Masters bedroom. I opened my eyes to his furious gaze glaring down at me. “You agreed that we can keep separate rooms in the contract” I reminded him, and myself. “Is that what you still want?” He asked his eyes

I felt sore. Not in a bad way though, just the kind that happens after an activity you've not done be
