The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again Freya or my assets?
Chapter 86Freya's POVTwo days laterThe meeting between Michael's grandfather and me continually left me stunned. I couldn't look him in the eyes as he had declared that he didn't want a woman like me anymore. As I walked tiredly out of his compound, I met Michael's white car in front, probably waiting to take me home. My heart began to bleed as I couldn't take my gaze off his adorable face. Tears began to fall from my eyes as I fought within me never to let them fall, but somehow, they fell."Freya," Michael called, realizing that I didn't acknowledge his presence or reveal a smiling face. I didn't flinch as I kept walking; I guess this time, Michael and I weren't meant to be."Freya," Michael called again, his voice more audible behind me. He had probably gotten out of the car. I closed my eyes tightly as I felt his hand against mine, stopping me from walking further."You had a meeting with Grandfather, and you didn't tell me?" he asked, but I didn't reply. I didn't even know how

Chapter 85Ambrose POVA smile formed on my lips as I watched Raymond from the penthouse. I knew he probably had some news for me. Since the last time, I hadn't seen him. I also couldn't stop thinking about the conference meeting I had earlier. Michael would have no choice but to let go of his company. Everything was ready: the witnesses, his negligence to work, breaking the law, and getting into a contract marriage. All of it would be used - the messages from the bug and..."Sir, Mr. Raymond is waiting on the third floor. Should I call him over or would you go to him?" A frown formed on my face as I gave the maid a wild look."Do you realize no one comes up to the penthouse? Get your freaking ass out there and tell him to wait for me!" I fired, as she left at once. I had lots of mansions in the city, amongst them was my special penthouse. The last time I spent the night was four years ago, during my time with Freya. Now, I couldn't stop thinking about all of Emma's features. I couldn

Chapter 84A change of tasteEmma's POVI clenched my phone tightly, my voice barely above a whisper as I muttered Freya's name, my lips curling in disgust. How dare she go back on her words? I had specifically warned her never to cross me, and I was willing to provide her with everything she needed to leave the country."Freya!" I exclaimed, my anger boiling over as I hurled my phone at the wall, watching in satisfaction as it shattered into a hundred pieces. My gaze fell upon the delicate flower vases and champagne bottle on the glass table, and I couldn't contain my emotions as I began to destroy each item, the sound of shattering glass and ceramic echoing through the room.How dare Michael hurt me so badly? I fumed with rage, my chest heaving with each ragged breath. I had abandoned my family and purchased a new home just to be with him, and this was how he repaid me? By turning a blind eye and pursuing a destitute local whore?I was determined to make them pay, as I stormed out

Chapter 83Freya's POV"What...what did you just say?" I stopped, my heart suddenly constricting upon hearing Michael's words. It might have been a mistake. There was no way Michael would love a woman like me. Probably, there was something wrong with my eardrum."Did you really hate me that much? Did you really hate Michael that you were so eager for the divorce?" Michael asked, a smile forming at the corner of his lips."Really? I should be asking you that question. Almighty Michael hates Freya so much that he didn't even hesitate to shut me out of his life completely," I fired, my emotions taking control of me.He laughed, and I wondered what was so funny because I didn't think I was making a joke."Now you're being dramatic. I'm sure you've heard everything earlier, and then, you probably want me to look you in the eyes and explain myself. Well," he paused, giving me a long stare, his face brightly filled with smiles, which partially made me blush as I avoided eye contact with him.

Chapter 82Michael's POVI couldn't stop thinking about Jason's idea. It was a good suggestion, one I had thought of myself, but I didn't think I could swallow my pride and go to Freya, begging for her help. "Don't you think you need to talk to her? She might know something too," Jason's last words echoed in my mind as I took a deep breath.Before I knew it, I had decided to go to her home. I had promised myself I wouldn't get swayed by the rolling of her eyes or the biting of her lips. I kept reminding myself that I didn't love her anymore. Yet, I felt guilty for distancing myself from her little boy, Waylen. He was never involved in any of this...............As I stood outside her door, I took a deep breath and knocked. Just then, Freya's mom called out from inside, "Freya, honey, I think you forgot your medicine." My heart sank, realizing Freya wasn't home. And then, I began to wonder if Freya was perhaps ill?"Freya?" her mom called out again, this time with a hint of questioni

Chapter 81Raymond's POVThe familiar scent of Michael's apartment greeted me, and I realized that ever since Alexis and I were driven from his home, this was the first time I was visiting. I had always seen him at his office.As I walked a few steps over to make my presence known to him, the door of his room opened, and together with him was Jason, his lookalike best friend. Jason could pass for Michael's brother rather than Ambrose."Hi, Michael?" I greeted, trying my best to appear as normal as I could. I was tense; I had no intentions of giving anyone my full loyalty, especially Ambrose. I began to think of how I would make this decision of mine a wise move. I wouldn't want to do anything to appear suspicious in Michael's eyes, at least, he appreciated my effort."Hey, get over here, let's talk," Michael said to me as he walked ahead of us, going over to one of the empty rooms I had never visited. The door creaked open as Michael walked in first. I could see a big black box as I w

Chapter 80Raymond's POVI couldn't shake off the words of the woman at the airport as I lay my head softly on my bed. "I'm sorry, Mister Raymond, there was no record of any Mr. Ambrose Jenkins boarding our plane on that time five years ago."My mind was racing with questions. If Ambrose didn't board the plane that day, where was he, and where did he probably disappear to? He began to reach out to me a few months after Bella's death. As much as Ambrose had told me a lot of things alongside knowing a lot about him, he had never told me everything that went wrong on that day.Had I made a mistake in revealing my anger to him too soon? I began to ponder these thoughts when I heard the ringing of my phone. I had promised to end the call if it had anything to do with the debts I was owing. But then, it happened to be Ambrose, and a smile formed on my lips. Maybe I could use this moment to do what I had in mind."Hey, you bloody fool. Come get me out here. I'm at your home," he said, his vo

Chapter 79Michael's POVI watched in shock as Ambrose's lips locked with Freya's, and for a moment, I felt like disappearing into thin air. To think that Freya not only used me to make him jealous but also rode with him to Grandpa's home. She had been spending time with him, and who knows why she was also invited here. She had already told Ambrose about our divorce case.I closed my eyes, trying to reflect on how she had made a fool out of me. How she had used me to make Ambrose jealous, and now, they were sharing a kiss right beside me."How dare you?" I heard her say, raising her hand to hit Ambrose's face, who held it, looking deep into her eyes. My subconscious self wanted to make a move, drag Ambrose's hand away from her, and give him a hard punch. But then, I reminded myself that it was their problem, not mine. Freya only acted this way so she could feel less embarrassed."Oh, now you don't want to kiss me anymore because Michael's here? He's my little brother; he shouldn't ste

Chapter 78Freya's POVMy attention was fixed outside the window, which was packed with Ambrose's car. I began to wonder why he had decided to come over to my apartment. The last time I checked, I didn't think I had invited him."Freya, my beautiful Freya Rogers," he called from outside, a mocking tone evident in his voice. Right from when we dated, he never called me sweet names."I don't appreciate you coming over to my home and shouting my name. You could get arrested by the neighbors," I warned a few moments later as I walked slowly out. Now, we were meters apart as he smiled, a smile I had once begged for in the last three years. But now, it was meaningless to me. The whole of the Jenkins family was meaningless to me, and I didn't care about them anymore."I came to get you," he said, as I hissed, about to turn my back and leave, when I felt his hand holding onto my arm tightly. I tried to break free, giving him an angry look, but I was so pissed to watch him smiling like nothing

Michael's rules
Chapter 1Freya's POVI stood frozen, my eyes fixed on the grand staircase as my life flashed before me. I had vowed never to get involved with rich and influential men like Michael Smith, the billionaire I had just married. But life had other plans."Miss Rogers, we don't really have to maintain an intimate relationship when we're alone," Michael said, his voice piercing through my thoughts. "The contract doesn't apply except when a third party is involved."I turned to face him, my heart sinking. His words were cold and detached, his eyes devoid of emotion. I forced a reply, trying to keep my tone neutral. "Oh, yes."Michael's gaze swept over me, his eyes lingering on my face before he turned to leave. I watched, feeling a surge of resentment, as he ridiculed me with his towering height."Mr. Smith," I called out, my voice firm but polite. He paused, his back still turned to me."Where's my room?" I asked, trying to keep my tone even. "You didn't show me my room."Michael turned, hi...
