The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper Devil In Disguise II
Michael I could see horror on Baldwin’s face, the kind I rarely saw on such a composed man like him.I could tell it was largely due to my comment, not Jason’s arrest actually.“What did you just say?” he asked, gentlier than I expected. I sighed,“I do not mean I will implicate you with the police. I am only trying to get you on the same page with me.”“I still don’t understand,” Baldwin replied, hands on waist.“It’s just that…” I paused. “I think you wish I was the one getting arrested.” He heaved a sigh,“I would feel better if no one was arrested, Michael. Now that it has happened like this, we need to make sure Jason gets out of jail unscathed. I want you to reach out to my lawyer and tell him to handle this case personally.”“That might be dangerous in the long run,” I muttered. “If by any chance he is convicted for the crime, you will be tagged an accomplice by the press since you’re tied to him by the same lawyer.”Baldwin sighed, “I still can’t wrap my head around this. I d

Michael I walked into the office stealthily, acknowledging the greetings I got from the employees. For some reason, the place looked healthier towards me than before and I wondered what had changed.I sat down on my chair, ready to start work for the day. I had switched on my laptop when Jason appeared.He wore a navy blue shirt with black-colored trousers and shoes. He smiled widely and I might have noticed a sparkle. Maybe he visited his dentist or something.“Good morning,” he muttered, smiling. I raised my head in surprise,“Did you just greet me properly? The sun must have risen in the east today.”“It always rises in the east, Mike. If you wanted to insinuate something unusual, you should have said west,” Jason replied calmly. I frowned,“Oh yeah, you are still annoying. Maybe there was nothing unusual.” I focused on my laptop again but Jason didn’t stop hovering around.“I’m pretty sure you have noticed a difference with how the members of the staff are addressing you today,”

BruceI smiled, a hint of excitement on my face. Michael could probably tell as well.“Will you punish the arsonists?” I asked, looking into his eyes. I knew well enough that Michael was the one behind the arson himself.“Secretly, I would,” he replied casually. “The person who burned down the warehouse is Baldwin’s new assistant, Jason. He is an ex-boxer with a history of sports violence and he hired the people who burned down the warehouse.If you make an alliance with me, I will find the arsonists and make them confess so Jason can be arrested. That will be my first gift to you.”I had read Jason’s file which Kelvin submitted about a month ago so I knew much already. According to what was noted, Jason seemed to be competing with Michael for Baldwin’s favor.I guess this was Michael’s ploy to kill two birds with one stone. I played along, knowing it would help me in the long run.“I would appreciate the gift,” I told him, smiling.“Ah, according to our chief security officer, the lo
The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper The Alliance
Michael I woke up with a hangover on Sunday. I had overslept but that didn’t stop the severe headache I felt.I laid in the bed until afternoon when my stomach began to growl nonstop. I ordered food and when the doorbell rang in the next fifteen minutes, I knew it was the person who had come to deliver the food.I opened the door only to find Georgina right there, waiting for me with a smile.“Surprise!” she exclaimed and pushed her way inside.“You weren’t expecting me today, were you? I thought to surprise you. Have you eaten yet? If you haven’t, I should get into the kitchen and cook you something nice.”She stopped talking all of a sudden and turned towards me, filled with concern. She must have finally figured out that I wasn’t talking much.“Is there a problem?” she asked carefully.I felt like throwing her out of my apartment immediately but that wasn’t a realistic action at all.I had to make sure Baldwin didn’t doubt my loyalty until I destroyed him and if I told Georgina I

Bruce“He was stabbed in the back by the boss he has always been loyal to… the same boss he broke my heart for…” Natasha muttered, her eyes teary.Seeing her shed tears because of Michael made me livid but I didn’t take it out on her. Rather, I talked to her calmly.“He didn’t betray you out of loyalty to Baldwin,” I said. “He betrayed you because he is a disloyal jerk whose plan has been to use you from the moment he approached you. Don’t let your heart twist it, Michael isn’t a victim.”Natasha wiped her tears, “I thought I had healed. I guess a part of me still hurts.”“Complete healing won’t be achieved in a few months, it takes more time,” I told her calmly.“Since we are on the topic, how about you continue to see Dr. Emily Bronte from now on? She says your therapy hasn't concluded with her.”“I am fine,” she cut in.“I don’t think you are. Right now, you still have scars, one you try to hide,” I say firmly.“If you can’t trust me, you can tell Dr. Emily. She will help you.”“It

Natasha“Are you hesitating because of Bruce? You think he truly loves you, huh!” Michael exclaimed and then chuckled lightly.“You are drunk,” I muttered.“Oh really? Is that how you will disregard my words?” he asked, sounding frustrated.I took a deep breath, “I hate you, Michael. I need you to know that. However, I will be willing to collaborate with you to see the end of Baldwin. At the end of it, you can take over Mac Group if you wish, that’s your business to handle and that will be your reward. You won’t have me in the end.”“You think having you will be a reward for me?” he asked. “You are the one who should be grateful to have me.”“Right, you are drunk,” I stood up. “We should have this discussion when you are not under the influence of alcohol.”“I mean what I just said,” Michael said, his voice firm.“I will only join forces with you if you agree that in the end, we will be together. I know we had a messy breakup and that we have been hostile towards each other. However,

Natasha “I doubt you can explain,” he looked away from me. I knew what was happening. This was him clocking out before I could vent yet again. This time, I might be at fault too.I took a deep breath and touched him on the shoulder. That was enough to convince him to turn back towards me. Men are

Natasha “They shouldn’t date. No, they can’t,” I said firmly.Bruce stared at me curiously. He must be wondering why I was so firmly against it. While I was against it, he was in support. One would have to bend for the other.“Alright, give me a reason,” he told me.“No, I won’t,” I shook my head.

Baldwin If I had been told that one day, I would have to visit Bruce to plead like a loser, I would probably disbelieve. Well, today was that day.I walked into the mansion’s main building with a bottle of white wine. It’s disrespectful to visit someone empty-handed, you know.I was escorted to th
