NATHAN POV

The moment Kiki shut the door, I cursed.

I slammed my fist onto the desk, causing the scotch bottle to vibrate and spill a little of the liquid.

I had been ignoring my father on my personal phone, and now he’d sent a message to my work phone.

My old man just knew how to get on my nerves every single time.

I tapped on the screen and deleted the message without reading it.

Fiona knew why I’d taken Kiki to the gala. Only God knew what lies she’d fed my father.

I poured another

    KIKI POV “Shit. Kiki your eyes are swollen. Why are you crying?” Harry eyes fixed on. I swallowed hard. Hell, I couldn’t tell him it was because of Nathan. “It’s Jordan…” The lie tasted like ash in my mouth. “That son of a bitch,” my brother cursed. “What did he do to you?” “We… we broke up,” I sobbed, cleaning my tears. “That is great news, Kiki.” My brother brushed his hand against mine, trying to comfort me. “I know you never liked Jordan, but… I should have listened to you. He cheated on me.” I cried harder despite the fact it was old hurt, one I had moved past months ago. “So Jordan cheated?” I watched my brother clench his teeth. “No wonder he came to my office saying lies about you and Nathan. Now that you two are not together, you can meet other cool guys.” My brother’s lips kicked up. I tried to smile too, but all I managed was a nod. “I am glad Nathan is getting married. At least I don’t have to worry that what Jordan said was true.” Harry’s words hurt

  • His Curvy Secretary, His Ruin   67. Fiona’s feelings

    NATHAN POV“Pink means stop, Nathan.”I gulped down my fifth glass of the evening, Kiki’s voice echoing in my mind.So life could really be unpredictable. Years at Stanford studying economics had trained me to predict numbers and how to run a business. But not only was my business going bankrupt, it was also at the mercy of the Sherlocks.Years of hating my parents’ marriage had made me believe I was incapable of loving a woman. I swear I hadn’t seen Kiki Oliver coming. I hadn’t expected her to make me feel things that I shouldn’t.I gulped down the eighth glass. I should have been at the club, but for weeks, being with Kiki had made going to the club seem pointless.On my desk were copies of the Sherlock contract, scattered everywhere.I had gone through them over and over again. I needed to find something that could get me out of the marriage with Fiona, but nothing.There had to be fucking something.“Fuck!” I picked up my glass and threw it against the wall. It shattered into piec

  • His Curvy Secretary, His Ruin   66. Pink means stop

    KIKI POV “Don’t touch me,” I glared at Nathan. Such guts he had to think everything could suddenly go away with an explanation or a touch. He was getting married, for fuck’s sake! And he never told me! I still couldn’t wrap my head around why he had been using me when he had known for months that he would be getting married to Fiona. Nathan paced towards the window, exhaled then started. “It might not look like it but this company is going bankrupt,” he started. “I am doing where that I can to handle it…” He shrugged, looking out the window. What the fuck did any of what he said have to do with him marrying Fiona? “My family has been in partnership with the Sherlocks, and there was a clause that bonded our families together through marriage.” I didn’t bloody care about any other explanation, fine it was family business but why the fuck did he ask me to be his girlfriend? “All I need to know is why? Why did you lead me on. Why you sold me a lie? Was I so easy to fool?

  • His Curvy Secretary, His Ruin   65. I can explain

    NATHAN POV The whole floor was clapping. Fiona and my father were smiling for the cameras. I had found out about the whole arrangement in the main lobby only fifteen minutes ago. A fucking public show to announce the wedding. My father had made it clear that not showing would up have consequences. That was reason why the venue was in the company’s lobby so I had no other choice but to be there because everything had already been put in place. All I had to do was show up, smile and pretend. The cameras were pointed at me and the employees were waiting for my reaction as I got on the stage with Fiona. “Congratulations, Mr Nathan and Miss Fiona!” someone from the crowd shouted. Fiona tightened her grip on my hand. “You have to smile, Nathan,” she whispered and I forced myself. “Thank you on behalf of my fiancé and me,” she announced to the crowd. Fiona started her speech about our upcoming wedding. I wanted to walk off the stage but that would only create a bigger proble

  • His Curvy Secretary, His Ruin   64. Getting married

    KIKI POV “Who is she?” I had asked. Mrs. Montgomery gave me a bemused look. “You don’t know?” “Know about what?” There was something else she wanted me to guess, but she expected me to put two and two together. Hell, I had no clue. “Fiona,” she said. “Nathan and Fiona are getting married.” My chest tightened. I… I probably hadn’t heard her correctly. “In three weeks,” Mrs. Montgomery added. I swallowed, staring at her as though she was trying to pull a prank on me just to see how much I loved her son. “I’m sorry…” she whimpered. “Remember what I told you?” she asked. I nodded softly, she had said I shouldn’t let Nathan marry “her” but it wasn’t my decision to make. When I entered Nathan office holding a tray of drinks for him and his father, I caught a glint of guilt in his eyes. He knew damn well he was getting married to his best friend. Scrap that. Best friend? If that was even true. He fucking lied to me. Just best friends? I should have known. “I was about to leave,
