Husband For Hire のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

The next morning Bella got out of bed, walked to the bathroom to do her morning routine then came out and quickly changed into her workout clothes, slipped her feet into her shoes and left her room.She carefully went downstairs so as not to wake anyone and straight to the kitchen to get a bottle of water. She shrieked when she turned on the lights and saw Jesse bare chested standing by the refrigerator guzzling down water."I'm sorry, did I scare you?". Jesse fought a smile when he noticed her averting her eyes. "It's... I didn't expect anyone else to be awake that's all." She walked to the fridge. She could see the sweat dripping down his neck and all the way down to the waistband of his sweatpants which made her mouth dry up."I've been awake since five." He told her. "heading to the gym?"."Yeah. And you?"."I'm just coming from there. That room is a dream." He sighed. "I can live there all my life and never get tired."Bella chuckled. "You're funny." She shook her head, opened t

Jesse stared at Aviva in surprise. "Hire me?". "Yes and in turn, everything I own will belong to you. I have shares in different companies in this country and abroad. One company especially that I'm sure you'd like to go back to as the CEO this time." Aviva grinned. "Standard Flour Mills Limited?". Jesse raised a brow. "It's owned by Harrison Allen." "Was owned by Harrison Allen." Aviva corrected. "Last year, Harrison's company suffered a huge loss that cost him billions so he came to me for help. I offered to help him with his company in exchange for being a major shareholder there and he agreed. So now I own at least more than sixty percent of the shares in the company which makes me the boss." "Wow. And no one knew about this?". He asked. "He didn't want his board members to know." Aviva shrugged. Jesse leaned forward in his chair, rested his elbows on his knees and laced his fingers together under his chin in thought. It was a huge tempting proposal and he'd be stupid not to

"This is wonderful news!". Aviva walked over to hug them both. "I'm officially the happiest woman in the world right now." "I'm glad you've finally gotten your wish Mom." Bella said. "Jesse isn't so bad." "So are you." He quipped. "I can't wait to tell Vincenzo about this." Aviva rubbed her hands together. "Your Abuela will be so happy mi bebé." "So this means... I'm meeting the whole family?". Jesse made a face. "Yes." Aviva nodded. "But don't worry, you'll be fine. I'd like to meet your parents as well. I'm sure Martina..." "I don't want them to come." Jesse cut her off. "Why?". Aviva looked surprised. "They're dead to me. I don't want to be related to monsters like them." His face hardened. "Please don't invite them Mom." "Okay. If that's what you want darling." She said. "Thank you." He said. "We'll set the date for the wedding. It should be two months from now." Aviva told them. "Isn't that too fast? We'd like to go on dates and get to know each other better. Right

Jesse groaned as the sunlight streamed into his bedroom through the open curtains and he slowly sat up in bed. He winced as a sharp pain sliced through his head and he groaned again. This head splitting hangover was always part of the reason why he never drank too much alcohol. He turned his head to look at who was in bed with him and frowned when he realized it was Bella and she was naked with the duvet covering her from waist down then he looked down at himself and he paled."Oh God, no." He muttered. "What have I... Did it really happen?".Bella stirred and turned to face him and she had a smile on her face. She threw her arm around him and tugged thinking he was the pillow but frowned when she realized how hard the pillow was then her eyes flew open."Jesse?". She croaked out squinting at him."Morning." He averted his eyes away from her chest.Bella sat up and pulled up the duvet to cover herself. "What are you doing in my room and why are you...", Her voice trailed off as her e

"Hola Papa." Bella waved as her father's face appeared on her computer screen."Hola princesa." Vincenzo smiled. "How are you?"."I'm fine Papa and you? How was your vacation?". She asked."It was good. Estrella and I had fun but we missed home and the kids so we came back." He shrugged. "How's Vi?"."Mom is doing good. She wanted to call you but I uh told her I would do that instead." Bella said. "She's not told you about her crazy plan to marry you off to her godson right?". Vincenzo leaned forward in his seat. "I mean, I love the woman but she comes up with mind blowing stuff sometimes." He chuckled softly.Bella laughed. "She told me.""You said no right?". Vince looked hopeful."I... did at first." She replied sheepishly."At first? What does that mean?". He frowned. "You've said yes?"."Si.""What?!". He exclaimed."Papa look, Jesse is a wonderful man and a doting father. He loves his daughter very much and I equally love the little girl like my daughter." She informed him. "I
