Having to work as a writing editor is the most interesting thing to ever happen to me. I never thought I’d have this happiest part of my life.
My so-called marriage was going well; no drama, no problems whatsoever and I was killing at work it couldn’t be any better.
“I’ll see you after work” I said to Felix
“Wait. A friend of mine is having a party tonight and we’ll be going over for it” he said with a warm tone
“We’ll be going shopping so I’ll come get you later on. I suggest the driver takes you to work today to make things less stressful” he said
“Oh, I didn’t know that I have to work late today so I don’t think I’ll be able to attend” I said
“What do you mean by that?” He asked with a bossy expression
“I have to work late because I have some work to get done before the weekend starts and that’s tonight” I said with confidence
“I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. I’ll come pick you up and we get whatever we have to get and we go for the party whatever work you have to do should be done by 3pm. That’s it” he said walking to the door and outside the mansion
I felt disgusted. Not after I thought my life was going the right way he comes with his mean words and tone again.
“Hey are you okay” I heard a warm voice from behind. Turing to see Jasper I loosened up
“Hi. I didn’t know you were around” I said trying to hide my disgust feeling
“Yeah I just came to talk about something with ‘Mr Grumpy’ before we head out to work” he said jokingly
His statement brought a tender laugh to my face and I couldn’t help but laugh. “He is really ‘Mr Grumpy’ I don’t understand why he has to be though” I said back
“You know he’s always been like that since he was a kid, a very uptight boy and he’s grown to be worse from the looks of things” he said
“But are you okay though?” He asked with concern in his voice
“You don’t seem happy like you were coming down the stairs earlier” he added
“Hmm…. I don’t really wanna talk about it. I’m fine” I said
“You can talk to me. You know you might feel better sa…..” he was stopped by the honking of Felix car
“Okay, he’s waiting. I promise I’ll find time and we’ll talk about it” he said
“Okay thank you Jasper” I replied with a little smile
“You’ll be on way now, right?” He asked with a warm tone
“Yes most definitely. I’m a little late already ” I said softly
“Okay then I’ll see you” he added with a smile on his face as he pecked my cheeks goodbye
Walking towards the door he turned and said “you look and smell incredible as always” and with that he chuckled and left
I had thoughts at this point because why is Jasper the sweetest man I know? Not only does he compliment me every single chance he gets he also has a way of making me feel better.
Felix is not as sweet and caring as Jasper is. At first he seemed nice but although not as nice as Jasper is but he made me feel really special.
I left for work not in my best mood but I love my job so I felt better after sometime.
I couldn’t concentrate well enough on my work and I had things to do and I didn’t want to leave it till next week so I had to erase my thoughts on what happened earlier in the morning and I couldn’t stop thinking about how sweet and kind Jasper is.
I was able to finish all I had to before I felt with Felix and while I clearing my desk and placing things in the right order, my phone rang “don’t keep me waiting” a deep voice called out on the other end of the call
“I’ll be right down in five minutes” I said
Minutes after the call, a colleague called out to me “Yoo Dana”
“Uh you’ve got company in a red Tesla car” he said with a confused look
Laughing nervously and uncomfortably I said “ I don’t think that’s for me”
“Oh okay then” he said not sounding too convinced but I was so glad he didn’t ask further questions
I’ve been working for a few months in the writing firm and I’ve tried to hide my identity of being Mrs Dana Bailey from my colleagues to avoid awkwardness and it was going smooth till Felix came by my office in one of the bright color cars making it obvious.
‘Oh my God can he not do this’ I sighed
I packed up for the day, signed out of work and went down to meet Felix
I never thought I’d be in a position to buy more than five things from a store. But here I was with a million things (of course not a million) but I mean a whole lot of things and I was just so excited but also shocked.
“Do you have this McQueen in silver” I asked the lady attending to me
“Yes ma’am. We have it in almost all colors” she said
“Pack all of the colors for her” I heard Felix say
“What?! That’s absolutely not necessary, i just feel the silver will be really nice” I said trying to persuade him
“You’re my wife and I want you to have all colors” he said with a soft tone and a warm smile
“Aww that’s so sweet. A black Birkin would really look nice with it” the lady said
“Okay then can I get all the Birkins you have then” Felix said
“What?!!! Do you have any idea how much Birkins cost?” I said my eyes wide opened
“Money is not the problem and you know this. Get all for her” he said
“Oh sir we don’t have them here. I suggest you go to a Birkin store” the lady said
We drove to the store and got five Birkin bags and I couldn’t believe it, they’re worth a fortune and I have five of them? I wore the dresses and they fit so perfectly that I looked like a princess in a fairy tale.
We were on our way to the party and the drive was good although with no form of communication I sat in the car and just looked down on my phone.
‘He’s acting weird AGAIN’ I rolled my eyes
Dana’s POVAs I sat down on my couch, sighing and thinking of my life and how God decided to make things difficult for my twenty four year old self I was brought back to life by my ringing phone“Where the hell are you” my only friend and coworker, Claire yelled through the phone“I’m on my way, there’s a lot of traffic” I lied “Be fast or else you know what” she said almost yelling I ran through the door as fast as I could knowing I’m putting my job at risk, I hailed a taxi and got in telling the driver the address, looking at how the crowd outside bubbled and the lights as beautiful as ever I only thought one thing ‘WHY ME?’My life was going the wrong way and I knew my ruthless boss at work might either fire me before I entered or yell at me throughout the night. Although quitting would have helped my peace a little, it’ll be the worst decision of my life because there’s nowhere I could run to I got down from the taxi and took a deep breath What’s the worst that can happen I
Felix POV“No mom I don’t necessarily have to get married to have a child, I just need a child” I said all blunt giving my mom the ‘leave me alone look’. I was sick and tired of my mom pestering me for a wife, I mean after everything my dad put her through she still expects me to get married?I mean it’s not like I’ll put my wife through hell like he did but I have a phobia for marriage and commitment. I can’t even picture myself in one ‘Commitment is a waste of time’ I always say to myself “You need someone to look after you my darling, someone special who will let you loosen up a bit and not that girl what’s her name again?—Maya”she spluttered with disgust and annoyance Maya was my ex-girlfriend from almost a decade back but we still ‘play around’ from time to time. My mom’s undying hatred for her makes her look very ugly even though she has nice curves and a fine face but truthfully an irritating personality. “Can I go to work now” I said walking towards the door I love my mo
***We walked out of the bar and I instantly noticed a black shining car that shined brighter than my present life and I couldn’t help but widen my eyes and scream when the ‘handsome man’ beside me opened the car with a small remote in his hand. He truly is wealthy as he looks I said to myself We walked towards the opened car and as I got in I sat on the most soft and comfortable seat ever, although a car seat, it was as soft as a five-star hotel bed. After about twenty five minutes of driving without saying a word to each other, we got to a fancy restaurant. He was a gentleman and he opened the door for me, I felt ashamed because I wasn’t dressed for dinner at a fancy restaurant“Why didn’t you say we were coming to a place like this, I’m not dressed for this place” I couldn’t even look up because of how I shy and ashamed I was “It doesn’t matter, you look okay” he said without any emotion and I couldn’t even blush at his compliment because it sounded like an insult. I looked at
I felt very uneasy as I heard his deep voice on the other end of the line, after hesitating I had to answer because my life depended on my decision and the powerful billionaire had no time to waste. “Uhhh I’ve made my decision” I said barely speaking “I need this so I’ll go through it” I said nervously On my way to my mom’s house, the only thing that was on my mind was how to explain to her the whole situation I found myself in. I didn’t want to make her worry nor did I want her to think it’ll be a contract marriage. I got to her place, she looked and felt better than she was the last time I saw her and although happy I was shocked.“Hey baby” my mom—Mrs Annabel Joseker said smiling as she always does whenever she sees me “Mama you look different from two days ago” I said with a smile but with utmost concern“I called you to tell you what happened but then you said you were coming over so I said to wait for you” she said, still smiling. “A young lady brought me my complete medica
Felix's car stood in front of his exquisite mansion and everything I saw was intriguing from the gates down to everything in the compound of the mansion. I gasped when I entered inside I had something to say about every single thing I saw from the furnitures to the chandeliers. The lighting was the nicest I’ve ever seen. While day dreaming about how my life will be in the mansion I was brought back by a deep soothing voice,“Make yourself comfortable Mrs Bailey” he said with an unclear tone leaving me confused‘Have I done anything wrong?’ I asked myself “I’ll be showing you to your room since it’s your first time here” he said walking towards the stairs without looking at me “Why do you mean ‘my room’?, we are married I thought we’re supposed to share a room so why do I have a room of my own” I looked at him with curiosity and confusion and all the excitement in my face faded awayI had all these images of our wedding night in my head and here this man was telling me about having
A huge figure stood in front of me with a deep voice he said “Come downstairs for dinner”. I walked down the stairs to a set table for two. I managed to stop my tears and get myself together moreover, what was I expecting from a stranger and a feared one at that. Immediately, I knew that I was on my own and I had to be careful in the house. I woke up with a good feeling and as I opened the curtains, I knew it was going to be a good day. I proceeded with my breakfast, ignored my so-called husband and walked towards the front door. An almost soothing voice from behind called…“Where are you going?, don’t you think I deserve to know” “I’m going to my mom’s and I’ll be spending the day with her and my friend”I saw my mom after a few days of my wedding and we had a lot to talk about because it was a new experience to me. Leaving out the rash part of being married to Felix Bailey, I told my mom everything and we had a nice time together. ***I staggered into Bailey's mansion, my sho
I can’t believe I’m still having these feelings. I’ve tried so hard to erase them, I’ve tried so hard to make her hate me but it’s not working. She’s not making it easy for me. ‘Why did she have to see me in that position?’ I sighed heavily. ‘It might be for the better’ I tried to console myself Walking into my office and seeing Maya made me hate myself even more. How did I accept this girl back into my life? She only brings problems to my life. These feelings are just escalating and it’s making me sick. But I can’t fall in love ‘NO’ I screamed out loud causing a scene. I managed to boycott every question and stare that came with the scream. “What was she doing here?” A tiny voice that was supposed to sound soothing asked and I only got annoyed and pissed at the situation I found myself in. ‘What if I had just shown how much she makes me feel would we be living happily together?’ I asked myself “No that wouldn’t have happened” I said out loud again thinking it was my inside voi
I walked into an exorbitant, most beautiful ballroom filled with gorgeous art and music, the lights were breathtaking and the chandelier sitting in a warm embrace shining bright like a diamond. Perhaps it was made of diamonds? I walked into the ballroom, my red dinner gown that swept the floor, my exquisite diamond stones on the dress complimented my diamond handbag which drew so much attention and stares. Felix had earlier gotten me a set of jewelry, bag and shoes all diamonds to match my red dress. Walking side by side with my husband, my arm in his, I felt somewhat protected and safe from everything. Although it was just to showcase how ‘incredible’ our relationship was and how ‘amazing’ our marriage was going. I never for once imagined myself being in a gathering with people I see on the news and the ones I read about in articles. I felt important to be distinguished as an ‘Elite’. “You look amazing” Felix whispered into my ear I could feel the rush in my adrenaline, my face
