Looking at Charles with the hope that he would either support me in what I had planned to do or he would come with an even better way out of this weird situation that we were going to land in if I continued to stay here now that he was in love with someone else.
In my mind I had this thing going on that how could a player like him fall in love. He had at least been a lover boy, and that was something which I had known from all the stories that the house manager, James, had told me. He wanted a new chick every day, and if he ever felt that he started to love a girl, then he would be with her for a week maximum before he realized it was all too much for him to put up with.
It felt very special to me to be chosen by the richest guy in town to live with him and that too not to please him but in a completely platonic way. I had my doubts on why would someone let a stranger stay with them, but then if someone as settled as him asked me to live wit
Remembering the time when I had first opened the diary that had fallen on me in the little room on the other side of the floor where I used to live earlier when I had just moved in this house, seeing my husband's name on the very first page, did get me excited and it piqued my curiosity to read what was written inside even more. So, I didn't wait any longer to turn to the next page and start reading what was written in that little book.The first sentence on the second page was that everything that was mentioned in it was the kind of girl that he wanted to have as his life partner. It felt very personal to me, but this could be one way of getting close to Charles, I thought, and I got more eager to read what was written inside it because it could make me aware of the things which Charles expects from a woman to consider making her a life partner.And just as these four, five lines of rules were over, something which seemed to be the one wish
On coming to my room, I settled in the chair after locking the door as fast as I could. It was pretty obvious that my curiosity was ruling over me to know what pictures were there in the photo album which I got from there. It wasn’t going to be possible for me to go through all of the books, notebooks, diaries, and the albums that were kept in that storage, but I was going to see as much as I could from there without anyone getting to know it.Once I settled in, I took a long breath before I opened the album. From the inside, it looked relatively of the recent times. As I started seeing the pictures, I couldn’t believe any of the ones which I saw. I blinked a couple of times just to be sure if that was really him.The first few were of Mr. Lozano in bed with a new girl in every single picture. It was evident for Charles to have lived that kind of a lifestyle, but preserving all of his special moments in bed with so many different
Getting back to do what I was doing before takes me back to the time when Charles couldn’t find me in the house as I had planned to stay at a friend’s house after I heard him talking to someone on the phone. He was telling this other person who I presumed to be a girl because of the things he was saying while on the call.Anybody would make assumptions as I had done after hearing him talk to someone on the phone as if he was interested in having her. The best people would also have done the same if they heard a guy say on the phone, “My gosh! You are so beautiful,” “When will you have time for me?” “Come for dinner at my place tonight.”Not wanting to come between him and whoever he was talking to, I chose to stay at a friend’s place after college. Once the driver dropped me to college, I asked him to leave because I told him that I wouldn't be going back home with him as I was going to s
Charles hung up as soon as he asked me to send him my location and stated that he was coming to pick me up. He didn’t ask me anything about what my plan was and why I was at my friend’s place. I was confused as to what must have happened with him that he was venting it out on me. Until then, I had never seen him get so controlling.He had always been the kind of person who liked to make things go his way, but at least for issues pertaining to my life, he always gave me a say at the minimum. It was the first time that I saw him get dominant with me. And what was more surprising to me was that I was actually listening to him. Just when the call was disconnected, I didn’t only send him the address of where I was, but I sent him my live location instead.A little of domination was acceptable to me if I were in a relationship with him, but we were just friends back then, and it still didn’t feel weird to me. Maybe because
Charles’s words sent chills down my spine and my lower part cheered and did its job by hearing the two choices he had in his mind. Raised up in an orphanage, there were different kinds of people I was friends with. Some of which were very innocent, some of them were not at all innocent, and the rest of them came somewhere in between the two levels of extremity. Besides, I have had a sexy imagination ever since.So, it didn’t take me any time to relate what he said with the feelings that I had for him in my mind. I only hoped that the wish of mine would become a reality because it was high time to live like that. But because I wasn’t sure if he really meant to say what I assumed, so I chose to act dumb. Also, I did not want to push him away from that area where he was gradually coming. Hence, I replied, “How will you punish me, and what will the bargain be?”“Which one would you choose?” He questioned
Waking up the next day happened with a smile as I had known that the day would bring in even more smiles. Since Charles was drunk the night before, a proper talk didn’t happen, and we had gone to our respective rooms. But the day seemed to have come with a lot of happiness, so I got dressed and I stepped down.On meeting the managers as they were working, I could guess that some talk about Charles and me was on, their expressions told me so. To ease the tension at least with my first point of contacts, I initiated a conversation about the day before to know what exactly happened and why Charles behaved the way he did because I also wanted to get surety on the way that I was feeling and the things that I was assuming about him.From what I learned, he had created a ruckus when he didn’t find me at home that evening. My chauffeur, the house manager, and his assistant also told me that he made a big scene when he didn’t find m
On looking at the file, I saw pages in it, and when I properly read the starting few words on the first page, it looked as if it was an agreement. I didn’t understand why I would be asked by him to read whatever was written in this. I thought it must have been some business-related thing of his, and when I was going to ask him what it was, I saw my name written on the second line.My name caught my attention, and then I took full interest in continuing to read the rest of it. Immediately I looked up on the page to see what agreement it was. Seeing ‘Shareholder Agreement’ right on top of the page was surprising to me. And because my name was mentioned at the start, it obviously had something to do with me.I was hoping he did not take the 50 per cent stake at the museum seriously. That is what came to my mind on reading how much I read that far. I quickly glanced through it, and I was stunned to read all that I had a fear of
Looking at Charles, I did not feel the same after becoming his business partner. Once I signed the agreement, I automatically was feeling a little attitude in me, and I wasn’t liking it because I had no reason to be proud of owning a part of the museum without even doing anything to achieve it.“Why did we do this?” I asked after a few minutes of silence and maintaining the eye contact with him to know the plan he has in mind because every little thing that he was doing hinted at the assumption I had built in my mind about him wanting me just as much as I wanted him. It was high time that I needed to hear how he felt for me, and I was getting impatient for it.“Because I wanted to do it,” he replied, which didn’t quite answer my question.But then because it was obvious that he wouldn’t give a direct answer to that, I chose to park this thing until he was in a mood to talk about it. I continue
