The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper Make-Up
Bruce“I’m coming home,” I told her with my mind fully made up.I stood up first and cut the call next. As I tried to move, I bumped into the butler who barely held onto the wine from falling.“Are you leaving?” he asked with a startled expression.“Yes,” I replied. “I need to take care of something urgently. As for the wine, serve it to me the next time I visit.” I ran off immediately, going to find my car. It would be a long drive back to the mansion but I didn’t mind.**It was a few minutes after twelve when I got to the mansion. My grandma and Natasha were both seated in the living room.There was a movie showing on the TV screen and it seemed to have their attention until I arrived. Both of them turned to me at once and I glanced at Natasha first and then switched to Abigail.“You’re back,” Abigail muttered. She walked up to me and hugged me tightly.“I’m sorry, I know I have hurt you. I shouldn’t have done that but I did already. Please forgive me, okay?”I held her as well, smi
The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper Confrontation
BruceI walked into the mansion angrily, looking for Abigail. She wasn’t in her room and as I checked other places she might be, I ran into Maria.“I believe this is working hours, why are you here?” Maria asked out of concern. She knew I rarely come home during work hours.“Where is my grandma?” I asked directly.“She isn’t in the mansion at the moment. She left so early today to see the sunrise at…” she was saying. I cut in sharply,“When will she be back?”“Anytime from now,” she replied.I walked back to the living room, determined to wait for Abigail. I was followed by Maria who seemed concerned about the way I was acting.“I hope you’re fine?” she asked for the umpteenth time. “Should I prepare some juice or would you like a beverage?” I rolled my eyes at her,“The best thing you can do for me right now is leave me alone.” Maria nodded and walked away, giving me the privacy I wanted.Ten minutes later, my grandmother entered the living room. She was with her driver who was helpi
The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper A Mystery
BruceIt was in a rush that Kelvin entered my office. He was excited, his facial expression betrayed that.I gave him a quick glance and buried my head back, looking at the documents before me. It was about transferring some key staff members to different positions. It has been giving me a headache for days now.“It was just as you said,” Kelvin began to say, full of excitement.“The assistant chief secretary to Baldwin McAllen has been arrested by the police for arson. I believe there are both witnesses and evidence against him. He won’t be able to go scot-free.” I gasped,“The real target isn’t Jason, it is Baldwin. It would be nice if Jason could name his boss as the one who instigated him but I am almost sure it would never happen.”“Why not?” Kelvin questioned. “He is in danger right now. If he names Baldwin as the real instigator, his sentence might be shorter.”“People like Jason are smarter than you…” I pointed out.“He will end up gaining nothing if he betrays Baldwin. Why? I
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,”
The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper Allies With Different Motives
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

NatashaI woke up that morning alone on the bed. I could remember that last night, I talked with Bruce. I must have fallen asleep in the middle of our conversation.The alarm had rang earlier but I didn't hear it. As I didn't have much time, I rushed to get ready for work.I brushed my teeth, had

BruceI was bored sitting in my office all day so I walked out of the office.I went to the staff's office and I peeped to check what they were doing.“Boss,” someone tapped my shoulder lightly. I almost jumped out of my skin.I turned to check and it was the ever mischievous Kelvin.“What the hell

MichaelI filled my glass with whiskey and held it towards my mouth. I stopped halfway and sighed instead.A rose flavored perfume filled the air and then a lady sat beside me. She was the one who wore the perfume.“I will have whiskey as well,” she told the barman warmly.The barman began to set h

Natasha“You must be tired but if you are not, would you love to come with me?” Abigail asked warmly.I exchanged glances with Maria but it wasn't helpful at all.“You don't have to come,” Abigail ended up saying.“It's nothing much.” “What is it about?” I asked calmly.“It's a club I belong to,” A
