Chapter 13: Distance
Nicholas's POV
"I don't understand why haven't you guys finished this yet?! You don't even have a lead Mark!" I screamed into the phone.
"Sir we tried, but every lead is a dead end!" Mark said back with frustration. I don't care.
"I've no idea what you're going to do. But I want it sorted out quickly. Who was that guy who just walked into my wedding trying to spoil it, and none of you were aware of his actions if I hadn't alerted you. Forget him! He just died last week. What about those men who were following Eve at the mall? Thankfully they didn't attack, and your reason was that we had less men. What if they had actually attacked? I don't understand how my father chose you all to protect me?! Or to even enter into this field!" This shut him up, I guess.
I was still waiting for him when suddenly I felt like I was being watched or someone's.... presence.
"Mark I'll call you back" I whispered and cut the call immediately.

Ok yeah it hurt when he didn't reply when I asked about OUR love life. But it didn't start as a love story like theirs. It was an arranged business deal all the while..........It took almost three hours until we reached New York. I was sleeping next to Nick while he kept looking at me

Evelyn's POVI heard a few hard knocks and then the banging! Who is it?!"You!""You!"I heard two familiar voices at the same time. Oh oh! Shit!"What are you doing here?""What are you doing here?" I heard them ask each other again at the same time as I ran down the stairs.Oh God why?!She stood there glaring at him and for the first time I saw Nick being speechless. She was assessing him from head to toe noticing his shirt. Those missing buttons which flew away as I tore his shirt apart. And his tousled hair. Ugh!"Aaaah... come in." He finally said and she took a quick look of the living room. I knew it. I was just packing everything; it might look to her as though...... we were doing... 'stuff'? Here in the living room. Well that's what it looks like with all the things thrown on the floor. Most of the things were fallen or broken. Isn't it embarrassing!? I think I should make myself know
The Billionaire Playboy's Bride Chapter 16: New Entry
Evelyn's POV'Oh gosh... my husband is such a fool', I thought as I ran upstairs to bring the key to the back door. I usually don't use the back door, only when I've to clean. Finally, my back door is of some use.I unlocked the door and ran outside with a grin trying to find Nick. What were they saying? Too many people... that's why they are behind some tree? Big tree...? I thought and looked to my side. Great! There I find Nick and Mark conversing with each other."NICK!" I screamed. He turned back with a shocked face."How the fu*k did you get here?! Didn't I lock you inside?" Nick looked at me with confusion and anger. Let me tell you really angry."Yes Jerk, you did!" I was walking screaming at him.When I reached him, I stood right in front of him glaring at him."How- how the fuck did you even come out?!" He asked furiously."Remember it's my house! I do have a back door, you smartass" I smirked

Evelyn's POVAfter that torture scene, Nick brought me to our room. "Are you fine now?" He asked with concern lacing his voice. Watching Mark hurt that man felt like I was in a trauma."Yeah. I'll be fine" I whispered with a sigh."Is something wrong sweetheart? I mean.... I know that you've seen people die right in front of your eyes. And I don't think that seemed to bother you before…" He asked confused."Yeah, I know... I know. It's just that... that man seemed oddly familiar. Like he was my own... something I just don't remember". I said. I tried. I tried so much… to remember him but I can't. "Nick, I want remember him. I know, I know him. Just can't remember where I saw him" I said with a cry."Eve, just calm down. Like I told you that man was following you every day, maybe that's why he seems familiar. Don't worry too much about it" He said rubbing my arm. "But I don't like it when you're near him. That bloody o
The Billionaire Playboy's Bride Chapter 18: Ex Bitch!
Evelyn's POV"What happened? Why so serious? Is it something your dad said?" I guessed. But I just knew it was something his dad said. They stood in a corner and discussed something in a hush voice. I wonder what it was about."Yeah... he said should discuss it with you before I take my decision" He said rubbing his jaw and his glass in the other hand. So hot!"Ok... give me a minute. I'm feeling hungry. I'll get ice cream." I got up excitedly. When I came back with my box of vanilla ice cream, he was still looking at me weirdly. "What?!" I asked."You just had your dessert back at the hotel?" He reminded and I smiled at him sheepishly."I felt hungry" I shrugged. "Now tell me what is that you wanted to discuss? I'm ready!" I said sitting straight, righting my posture.While he poured another glass of brandy for himself. "Woah! Is it that serious?" I teased as he glared back at me."I informed him about the men follow
The Billionaire Playboy's Bride Chapter 19: Harsh Slap
Evelyn's POV"This!" Nick interrupted before I say anything wrong. "This is my wife." He said. 'This?' I mouthed at him. "I mean she's my wife Evelyn" He introduced properly correcting his personality which had slumped with her presence."Wife?" She asked raising her eyebrows."Yes, we just got married few months back." It's been more than a month, 'few months' is fine. I gave my hand to shake, and she narrowed her eyes at me, but quickly covered it with a smile and held my hand but just too tightly, that her ring pressed into my hand. "Ah!" I pulled back my hand with a cry. It wasn't painful, it would've been if I'd let her continue. But puh-lease, do you even have to teach me drama?Oh, and I had to create a scene in front of Nick, right?"You alright bae?" Nick pulled my hand up to his face seriously and glared back at her."Katherine?!" I heard a scream tear my ear. Haven't heard the name since long."Matthew?" I
The Billionaire Playboy's Bride Chapter 20: Affair with my Husband!
Evelyn's POV"Oh god please! You're still not talking to me now huh?!" He asked.I sat on bed removing my sandals. On the entire way home, he kept pleading. NO! Scratch that! He kept teasing me. I wasn't really angry at him. But there's a lot fun in torturing your husband, even he knows I'm not that angry."Come, we'll go sleep. It's too late" He said, and I looked at him annoyed. Isn't he going to woo me? Try to melt me with words like in romance novels? What the fu*k ya! Cara's description about Daniel is so much better than him. My husband is so plain and he's such a bore."You're such an asshole! Like really?! Why do you even want a wife? One-night stands suit you much better. Sleep with them and the next day throw her out and don't see her face again! Relationships are too difficult isn't it?" I asked somehow agreeing with my own statement."And why did you get that sudden thought madam?" He asked raising his eyebrows removing
The Billionaire Playboy's Bride Chapter 21: Misunderstood Feelings
Evelyn's POV"Mom! Dad! What are you all doing here?! Isabella! Why are you asking him to move the sofa" His voice boomed as Isabella stood there instructing his men to move the sofa vertically."You didn't seem to want to come home to Greece. So here we are. Much safer!" Dad said, more like muttering to himself."Aww. I missed you my little boy. And Eve what's with the hair?" Mom came pouncing on us as we descended down to the last stair. I stood amused, shocked and even blushed at her words while he glared at everyone, I could almost feel the smoke coming out of his ears and nose."So, are we going to the lucky grandparents any time soon?" Dad asked as I looked down. I felt Nick hold my hand tightly and pulled me along with him, moving back up the stairs again. I don't know how I walked behind him with the soreness between my legs. I was half jumping, half walking."Nick! Nick!" I hissed into his ears when I saw Mom's face droppi
