Piper pov

By the time we arrived at the company, one of the doormen grabbed the bags from the car, “Take those to her office.” He said to them as we all made it towards my office when Ruby appeared.

“Mr Langford, you’ve returned.” She started with a smug look on her face. She darted her eyes at the shopping bags, “Is this what took you all so long?” With a single finger, she pulled one of the bags slightly open and peeped inside, then she raised her gaze to me, and ran her eyes through me with a look of disgust on her face. She then turned to Jace, “Mr Langford, you took her shopping?”

“And what gives you the right to question me like that?” Jace said to her with an expressionless face as he gestured to the man with the bags where he could drop them.

Ruby chuckled, very uncomfortable, “Sorry, sir, I’m just surprised to see this, it just had to be at lunch time.”

He glared at her, “Did you do what I delegated you to do?”

“Yes, of course, sir.” She hurried to the other side of the desk

    Piper pov After picking out just a few items, I felt a mad need, and I was assisted by one of the employees at the store, who gathered them all and took them to the counter, where I paid for them all with the platinum card. I knew Jace was a billionaire which meant the platinum card would be filled with a whole lot of money but I wasn’t certain about how much money the card held in it, aside from that, the items sold at the store were pretty and all that but at the same time, they were very pricey. Everything I picked out, amounted to about six thousand dollars. I was very surprised, I didn’t mean to spend all that money on … literally nothing. He gathered the bags for, me and we headed towards J,ace where he was seated. by the time we got there, he was scrolling through his phone, one arm spread across the shoulder of the bench and his legs was crossed over each other, he looked up at me with his brows raised, a facial reaction on his face which I would read as surprise, “Are you

    Piper pov“Shopping,” my eyes grew wide in shock, whi, le I was super surprised at why he said, maybe he meant we were going shopping for him, although this was a very odd hour to be shopping. We had barely forty-five minutes allocated for lunch and he wanted to shop?“Yes, we’re going shopping. I want us to have dinner at a restaurant later this evening. I’ve already made reservations, and everything should already be taken care of even before we get there. All that’s left is for us to actually go there and enjoy what’s waiting for us.”“Sir —“ I turned to him, I could already guess what Jace’s taste was and even when he casually mentioned a restaurant, I just knew how much taste he would have in dealings similar to this and I could definitely not afford such or was he going to let me sit maybe, and just … watch him while he eats or would I have to stand by his side like an assistant with his bag in my grip while he eats—“Piper.” He called out, interrupting my trail of thoughts, “

    Piper povDuring lunch time, I headed towards the cafeteria to grab something to eat. I still hadn’t received my first pay yet, and before now, I had always spent almost all my savings on transportation.I had very little money left which meant I had very slim options. I made an order for just French toast and orange juice since I skipped breakfast that morning. With my tray of food in my grip, I walked into the cafeteria that was filled with people. There were no empty chairs or tables, but luckily for me, I spotted an empty table just by the corner at the back, so I hurried over there and got comfortable.I unwrapped my food and began to munch and crunch as I observed the surroundings. The air was filled with murmuring sounds that filled the air. I had already taken about three bites from my toast, and the meal had already gone halfway down my stomach when I noticed a dark stain on me. I slowly looked up and saw Jace standing right in front of me.“What are you doing here?!” He ask

    Piper povI hurried to the mirror as I tried to put my earrings on, careful enough not to let them fall on the floor, before I could grab my purse and head downstairs. I heard a very firm knock on the door, “It’s open!” I yelled from the inside as I hurried into the closet to grab my purse.“Miss Piper,” came the familiar voice of the butler, “Mr Langford is asking for you, he’s waiting in the car.”“I’ll be down there in a second,” I yelled from the inside of the closet. Immediately I heard the door shut, I quickly grabbed my purse and threw a bunch of my clothes that were scattered on the bed into the closet, and hurried downstairs.By the time I got outside, the car was ready to leave with the driver in his seat and Mr. Langford sitting beside him. He got out of the car and got the door for me. Once I got comfortable, Mr Jace’s gaze caught mine from the rear mirror, and immediately, I turned away, “Good morning—“ he hummed and stopped immediately. He turned to the driver and tappe

    Chapter 19PIPER’s POVA moment after I stepped out of the shower, there came a light knock on the door, when I hurried to get it, the person standing behind it got to it before I could and the head of one of the maids appeared by the side of the door, “Miss Piper, it’s time for dinner.” She announced to me.“Oh,” a wide smile appeared on my face, the sides of my eyes crinkling. I figured Mr. Landon— Jace took things like this very seriously. “I’ll be down in a minute,” I said to her, clutching the towel wrapped around my waist tightly.As soon as she made her way out, I leaned against the door and exhaled sharply as my eyes travelled around this large bedroom, admiring every single bit of the room and once again, my hands and my eyes fell to my very little baby bump and I rubbed against it before heading to change into something nice for dinner.By the time I made it down the stairs heading to the dining room, I already spotted Jace seated at the table right in front of a bunch of fo
