Ryan's POV:
It has been five hours since I sat here, in my bedroom not able to decide what to do. I have tried several times to get her through her phone, but the line is dead. But I know I can't simply sit here and hope that she will come back by herself.
Is she stupid? Doesn't she know what will happen if the paparazzi get a hold of this?
I have to go out and meet my personal detective, Davis Thompson. I think he can help me with this.
I took out my phone and called him at the same time I grabbed my Audi's key.
"Hello, Mr. Anderson." He said as he received my call after the second beep.
"Hello. I need a help." Talking to him I started to walk to my garage.
"Tell me, how
Pearl's POV:I looked or should I say glared at the man standing and growling in front of me. No need to guess who is it. Cause it is obviously my loving husband. You can note the sarcasm here if you feel like to."Why did you pulled that stunt?" Ryan literally yelled at me."Which stunt? Last time I checked I was a fashion designer not a stuntman. Oh sorry not a stuntwoman." I gave him the best evil smirk I could manage."Just shut up. Why did you ran away?"I didn't gave him any reply."Why you aren't talking? Answer me." His face was red because he felt so shy to talk with me. OK I'm kidding. It was red because he was beyond angry.He was answered with my silence."Cat caught your tongue or what?"I looked at anywhere
Ryan's POV:"Nathan."The name is known to me or should I say well known to me?"Isn't he your neighbor?" I asked though I know who he is."Yeah." She replied in a small voice."You are still having a relation with him?" I asked angrily."What? Still? When did I had a relation with him? I just had a crush on him." She said, acting confused.I must say she is a great actress. But I had seen better."You don't have to lie." I said, trying to not show my irritation."Why will I lie?" She is holding a more confused look with a little bit anger."Cause I know you had a relation with Dr. Nathan and may be you still have." I let out an angry laughter."Ryan, what are you saying? Just stop." She snapped."Oh so yo
Pearl's POV:"You sleep on the sofa and I'll sleep on the bed." I said as I sat on the bed."My room, my bed, my rules. Why will I sleep on sofa? And it is too small for me." He said, crossing his hand."This is why people say chivalry is dead. Be a gentleman and sleep on the sofa." I said back."Never in a million years. If you want then you can leave the room but I'll sleep on my bed." He replied and sat beside me."Are you sure Mr. Anderson?" I asked, cocking a perfect brow."Yes, am damn sure." He said, confidently and went to grab his sleeping clothes."OK. I'm going to the guest room." I said as I took my nighty out of the closet and turned to him. "Oh, I hope your servants won't doubt anything about me sleeping in another room and tell something about it to uncle Rob."
Pearl's POV:I was working on a mermaid dress as I heard someone knocking the door."May I come in, ma'am?" Anna, a maid of this house, asked me."Sure, the door is open." I replied as I continued to work."Sir asked you to be ready in one hour. You have a party to attend." She informed me."OK. Did he say anything else?" I inquired, finally stopping my work."No ma'am. That's all he said." She said, politely."OK, you can go now." She nodded and left the room silently.I looked at the design I was working on and sighed. I think I can't complete this today. Well, time to doll up.Ryan's POV:Entering my home, I didn't wait anywhere and went to my room to see if her highnes
Pearl's POV:Alexander wrapped his hands around my waist as we reached the dance floor. I placed mine on his chest and we started moving slowly with the music."I heard you own a boutique house. Is that correct?" Alexander asked me."Yeah, correct." I answered and looked around me to find a certain person."OK, so I have a offer for you." He said with a friendly smile and that got me curious as I stopped my searching mission for now and gave him my whole attention."What is the offer?""I'm organizing a fashion event on next month where 5 fashion houses will be participating. If you are interested then you can also join this." He said spinning me around."Oh wow. Who wouldn't be interested? But what is your catch? Why are you being so generous?" I interrogated him in a joking manner.
Pearl's POV:The next morning I woke up with a hand wrapped around me and like every cliché story, the hand belonged to Ryan, my so called husband. But the difference was what I did next. If you think, I kept looking at him like he was the last man in the world and thinking how innocent he looked while sleeping then you can't be more wrong. Because the moment I realized that Mr. Greek God here is cuddling with me, I did the one thing came to my mind. What? I pushed him off the bed.No surprise there. That was just me being me. If you are thinking how we ended up in that position then I have to tell you that we were tired and drunk enough last night to not give a damn about where we were sleeping.Back to the situation in hand, he sat up with a groan and frantically loo
Pearl's POV:Sitting in my car, all 24 years of my life, flashed in front of my eyes. It felt like just yesterday, I was dreaming of my very own prince charming, who will come and sweep me off my feet. He will look at my eyes and confess his undying love for me.I got everything I wished for except the only thing that I desired with my whole heart. Everyone thought that my arranged husband was a prince. But they all failed to see behind that handsome face, to see him for the monster he is. In the world's eye, he was the perfect man a girl can wish for but in reality he was anything but that.When I was first informed that I was engaged to him, I didn't even know what that actually means. I asked my mother about that and her answer only confirmed that fairytales do exist. If only I knew how wrong she was.Flashback
Pearl's POV:As I parked my car near the mall where I and Lou supposed to meet, I reached out for my make up kits that I had kept for emergency situation like this, well not like this, like when I was busy and didn't get the chance to get ready at home or... OK I think you got my point. Anyway, moving on from that. I applied some mascara and eyeliner on my eyes and painted my lips with a peach color lipstick.After making sure that I'm ready for showing up in a public place, I came out from my car and checked the time.It had been an hour and half since I left Ryan's place. Yeah, I'm not going to call that place home. Because a home is a place where your heart lives, where you know that there will be someone waiting for you to return. Which that place is clearly not.Oh, I got carried on. I seemed to do that often.Okay, a
