HIRED AS A BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE Chapter 8
(Anastasia's POV)I was woken up by a tap on my leg. I yawned and shielded my eyes from the light reaching through the windows.The tap on my leg continued, and I could hear Rosalinda's voice calling my name as I slowly regained consciousness."Good morning, madam Anastasia," Rosalinda said, smiling at me.I did my normal yawning and moaning waking-up routine until finally, I was fully awake then rubs my eyes to fully see Rosalinda beside the bed wearing a worried face."Good morning, Rosalinda." I greeted yawning."The boss said I should inform you that you should eat breakfast with him.""Oh really, sorry I...."I wasn't able to complete whatever I was about to say when the door barged open, and an unreadable Caleb came in.He was still in his PJ trouser and a black top, his hands were in his trousers as he stood at the door scrutinizing me that was still on the bed wearing only an undergarment underneath the blanket. I immediately cover myself. I was usually sleeping barely naked, w

(Caleb's POV)After our wedding, we were the talk of the country. Our photos were printed in every magazine and newspaper, and paparazzi followed everyone and everything related to us. It was getting on my nerves, but thankfully the spotlight will go away in a few weeks.I will be having a meeting later with some of my investors at the event, and I worked the entire morning together with the paper works, compiling it on my table.After hours of working, I lengthened my arms and opened a drawer to take some painkillers. But as I was about to reach it, the phone suddenly ring."Yes?""Mr. Carter, the charity event will be moved by two hours earlier, as requested by the investors." it was Kent, my secretary on the other line."WHAT?" a tiny gasps from a woman's voice overheard outside my office. "Okay, ready the private chopper." I ended the call as my attention is still outside my office. I don't remember that someone was waiting for me outside.My door was slightly open, that's why I he

(Anastasia's POV)He went back to ignoring me from the next morning onward. He didn't even look me in the eye and ignored me the entire day. I only saw him leaving the house since he came home after I slept. And then he ignored me the next day also.I'm totally confused by his sudden gestures towards me.I was sitting on a stool in the kitchen watching Fernando made food as he slightly sway his hips to the music banging from the radio. I know he was doing all this to brighten my mood and I find that very sweet and kind of him.Caleb was a box full of secrets. His entire life was a mystery full of discomfort and despair. His glare was enough to shut up anyone. Especially me, since he had been doing that a lot.I sigh and strode my feet to go back to my room and enjoy my horrible life watching movies. I miss Mom and Alice. Should I visit them? But Caleb warned me not to wander outside without his consent.Everything has been boring lately and I haven't spoken to Caleb since that dinner.

(Caleb's POV)Just finished my shower as I am putting on my white plain long sleeve, and paired them down with dark brown trousers. I decided to have breakfast with Anastasia since she didn't have dinner last night, is she still mad at me?After I fix myself, I strode my feet until I reach the door to exit my room. Arriving at Anastasia's door, I pressed the doorbell twice but no response. It was already 9 am, so I pressed the doorbell again."Anastasia." this time, knocking three times on her door but still no response.This is getting on my nerves. I pressed the doorbell spontaneously and won't stop until she won't open the door."CALEB!" and it works!I stop pressing the doorbell when she opens her door but only her head sticking out, her hair was quite messy as her brows are lowered and pulled closer together, and her lips tightened as if she was about to punch me."What took you so long?!" I can't help but raise my voice."I'm sleeping!!" she yelled back at me."Get ready, let's h

(Anastasia's POV)Today, I want to explore the whole hotel. Hoping to get the best out of my time here I quickly changed into a dress and ran to the elevator before Caleb could find me.After he kissed me yesterday, a blush crept up my cheeks. I was embarrassed and he noticed it, which is making me more mortified.I wasn't familiar with his new side but I was feeling very comfortable and happy with his change. His cellphone password makes a smile in crept again, our wedding date. But I knew that it would not last long. So before I could have any hope, I washed away all the thoughts of yesterday.I stood inside the elevator as its doors closed. But before that, I saw Caleb coming out in casual wear, wearing a black-collar t-shirt and beige pants.He looked my way but thankfully the doors fully closed and I went down.I didn't want him to see me blushing just by looking at him. So pathetic.After I got down, I felt a pair of eyes on me. I looked ahead and saw Caleb staring at me. Yeah, I

(Anastasia's POV)Caleb closed his eyes as ice cream dripped down his face.I stared at him in shock for a moment but then couldn't hold back the laughter that was trying to escape my lips. His cheeks were covered in vanilla ice cream making him look like a ghost you would find in scooby doo.Soon, I started cracking up. I kept my hands on the kitchen counter for support and bent down, laughing hard."Are you laughing at me?" Caleb asked with a serious tone but a few seconds later he chuckled seeing me laughing."I can't- you don't need a bowl. Just lick your face.""Well let's see how your wand works on you." Caleb winked and took my spoon and swung it just like I did.I gasped loudly when all the ice cream in the spoon was thrown at my face. I raised my head to look at Caleb only to see him laughing.He looks so cute when he laughs. Wait! What crawled up my ass today?After we both spent hours laughing at each other we both went to our rooms to take a shower. As I came out, Caleb's f

(Anastasia's POV)I woke up the next morning to a feeling of warmth. Slowly, I opened my eyes and saw a handsome man sleeping next to me. My hand was lying on his chest and his arm wrapped around my waist. Our faces were only inches apart, a slight move and our lips would meet.I stared at his perfectly carved face for a while until realization hit me. Suddenly, I jerked away and sat up straight. Due to my sudden movement, Caleb stirred and slowly opened his eyes. His eyes wandered around the room and then they fell upon me. His eyes widened in shock and he quickly got off the bed and put on his clothes.He ran his fingers through his hair and groaned in frustration."No." He whispered."What?" I ask in confusion."No." He shook his head looking down."Caleb--"I tried getting up but he stopped me."DON'T!... j-just... j-just get ready and pack your things. We shouldn't be late on our flight."He left the room in a hurry without looking at me, leaving me confused and heartbroken.My hea

(Caleb's POV)The sun beat down relentlessly, and even with the Air-conditioned cranked up, I could feel the heat inside my office."Kent, send me the draft for the meeting." I ended the call while still digging through the documents scattered on my table. But I am still careful to not rearrange the documents since they were already organized."Damn!"I harshly plunged a heap of documents in frustration. Letting my whole body collapse in the swivel chair and run my fingers through my hair as I let out a deep breath.I'm being out of focus since yesterday. I am bothered by Anastasia, about what happened in Germany. I shouldn't have done that in the first place. That time, I crossed the line.Why?Why am I always attracted to her?I did everything to ignore and avoided her but I really can't help myself from getting close to her.Seeing her makes me out of control and this is not good for me and also for her. I know that this will not work out because of the contract.As I brush my face
