“Do what you must to keep your cover intact. I will take care of things on my own end,” I told her right before ending the call.

I sat on the sofa and placed the phone on the table. Even without looking up, I could tell that Georgina was staring at me angrily. I simply waited for her to talk.

“You put your job over me every single time. How do you think that makes me feel?” she asked solemnly. She sounded more hurt than angry.

    Michael “Do what you must to keep your cover intact. I will take care of things on my own end,” I told her right before ending the call.I sat on the sofa and placed the phone on the table. Even without looking up, I could tell that Georgina was staring at me angrily. I simply waited for her to talk.“You put your job over me every single time. How do you think that makes me feel?” she asked solemnly. She sounded more hurt than angry.I raised my head and looked at her. She had tears in her eyes. I walked towards her and tried to hold her. She pushed me away the first time and finally, she succumbed. I held her firmly.“I’m sorry, darling. I just can’t help it…” I muttered.“If we are to have a long relationship, you will need to be able to help it,” she told me firmly. “I do not want a boyfriend who wouldn’t pick me over his job.”“Fine, I will try to be better,” I replied coolly.She wiped her tears with my shirt and pushed me away right after. She cleared her throat before asking,

  • The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper   The Leak

    Michael I used the fingerprint scanner for entry into my apartment. I checked around the living room and found a box of popcorn on the table.There was a movie playing on the screen. I figured out that my girlfriend, Georgina, was inside. She was the only one who could enter my apartment freely.I dropped my briefcase on the sofa and went looking for her. She wasn’t in the kitchen or the bedroom. As I approached the bathroom, I could hear sounds of her taking a shower.The sound of water splashing on her skin got me aroused. Quietly, I opened the door, hoping to stun her.“What the fuck!” she screamed the moment our eyes met. “Get out, you creep.” I was taken aback.Of course I knew she would be shocked but not to the extent of calling me a creep. Maybe she didn’t see my face properly.“It is Michael, your boyfriend,” I muttered.“Of course, I know. I haven’t permitted you to watch me shower. Now take your leave respectfully,” she replied firmly.“You don’t mean that…” I began to com

  • The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper   Another Compromise

    BruceNatasha and I stared at each other, each hoping the other would stand down. I was determined this time around.“Let’s think of it this way…” Natasha began to say. “If we get rid of Kenzie right now, the whole thing ends. We don’t get anything.”“We save ourselves from another betrayal. I think that’s enough,” I replied wittingly.“Why settle for that when we can get even more?” Natasha questioned. I smiled at her,“I know you are saying this just to save Kenzie. It’s not as if you really want us to use her as a double agent.”“Well, think of it as killing two birds with one stone. I assure you, everyone will be happy at the end of the day,” she said convincingly.“No, not me,” I replied. “I don’t believe in taking back someone who has gone all out to destroy me. If she ever considered betraying us, there is nothing that would stop her from doing it again.”“I’m trying to convince you here. Can you be more flexible, please?” she asked. I could tell she was getting frustrated. I s

  • The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper   Suspicion Confirmed

    Natasha I picked up the call, my phone now on my left ear. My heart was pounding.“Boss,” Jeff muttered.“Did you find out?” I asked instantly. “I did,” he replied naturally.“I checked Kenzie’s movements for the past few days but nothing seemed off.”I breathed in relief. “I’m glad to hear it,” I muttered. Of course, Kenzie wouldn’t betray me. She was that loyal.“But something popped up while I was wrapping up the investigation,” Jeff said carefully.“I think it’s something of concern. Yesterday’s night, Kenzie met with someone at a bar. It was hard finding out who but after bribing the bar’s owner, I got a photo taken from the secret CCTV camera in the bar. I’m sending the picture to you right now so check for yourself.”I checked my phone for the picture which Jeff just sent. The picture’s quality wasn’t the best but I could still make out the faces.I felt all my hopes crash the moment I confirmed for myself. Kenzie was with Michael and from the looks of it, they had a great bus

    Natasha I had over a hundred reports to tend to. The work had piled up from the time I had taken my vacation.Even though Kenzie had tried to take on my tasks, she couldn’t do them as well as I would. I began to go through the reports nonstop.“It’s time for lunch, director,” Kenzie told me, trying to urge me to stand up. I didn’t budge from where I was seated.“I need to finish going through these reports. You should go get lunch by yourself. Get a hamburger or something for me on your way back,” I replied, putting all of my focus into my work.“You didn’t have breakfast either. At this rate, you will collapse,” Kenzie muttered.I finally raised my head to look at her. She looked really worried about me.“Skipping breakfast and lunch won’t kill me. Don’t you know there are people who go three days or more without food or water? I am not even feeling hungry or thirsty right now. I’m totally fine,” I told her in a bid to reassure her.“I don’t believe it,” she replied with a shrug. “I

  • The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper   Taking Back Control

    Michael I walked into the office building with so much confidence. The reason was simple. The warehouse used by Stamford fashion had been burned. I didn’t even expect I would achieve my goal so easily.I strutted into Baldwin’s office like a proud peacock. Jason was there too and the level of my happiness skyrocketed. I stood in front of Baldwin confidently.“I am here to inform you that the warehouse of-” I couldn’t complete my statement.“Jason told me about it already,” Baldwin interrupted. “I have to confess, that is a great feat for you. I’m eager to know how you did it. Don’t those warehouses have great security systems?”“I have a spy on the inside. My men were able to get in without alarming the security guards. It was done cleanly with no traces left behind,” I told him, taking pride in myself.Baldwin smiled, stood up, and came over to hug me. “You did very well,” he whispered.“I am glad you think so, boss,” I replied dryly.“That is the reality,” he replied, tapping me on
