All Chapters of A PACT TO LOVE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

We left May's apartment and we made our way to her car. Once we were seated and secured, she put the key into the ignition, started the engine, and drove out of her place.“How is everything at the club?”“Not bad to say the least, Robin asked of you and he was quite shocked to hear that you got married. I was even surprised to hear he found out from a magazine he doesn't look like someone who reads celebrity magazines. Then on the other side, we have John who is still very bitter and pervy as per usual. His ego still keeps on increasing daily like an inflating balloon, he keeps on declaring if any one of us should fuck up, he’ll fire us as he did to you, and In my mind, I am always like “bitch, please.” And also that odd man, you know, your regular, what was his name again?” she asks, holding the steering wheel with one hand and snapping her free fingers trying to remember his name.“Is it Colton?” I said.“Yeah, him. He kept on asking for you and only you and eventually I guess he m

Yesterday, the exhaustion caught up to me as Cedrick drove me home. The smooth ride lulled me to sleep and I kept fighting to keep my eyes open throughout the ride. Immediately Cedrick dropped me off and I bid him goodnight, William wasn’t done at work at the time I came back so I didn’t bump into him as I made my way up to my room. I showered, changed into my pajamas with sleepy eyes as the shower didn’t help me stay awake, and went to bed.I hummed to myself as I rinse off soap from my skin under the shower. I woke up quite early today with a hungry stomach since I didn’t eat last night before going to bed. I turn off the shower and dry myself up with my towel before wrapping it around myself and walking out of the bathroom closing the door behind me.I turned and released a shrill noise, basically jumping out of my skin as I held my towel tighter and closed my eyes before opening it again and meeting William’s gaze.What did he want and when did he get into my room? This was the

The sun shone on my face, stirring me from my sleep. I glanced around the room as I struggled to unwrap myself from my duvet. I must have entangled myself in my sleep. I finally freed myself as I raised my head to take a peek around the room and William was nowhere to be found, he must have gone early to work as usual. I got up from the floor that I slept on last night. I felt the coldness of the tiles through the duvet. This made me remember the last time I slept on the floor in his dad's house. At least that time, there was a comfy rug, it provided a bit of comfort.I stretched out my sore limbs, sleeping on the floor would do that to you, it was so uncomfortable and this was how I was going to spend the next heaven knows how many nights. I folded up my duvet and placed it in the corner with my pillow.I poked my head out of the room to ensure Mathew wasn’t around before I silently made my way out of William’s room and walked to mine. I glanced at the bed and was tempted to crawl in

It has been a week since I went out with the girls for a pampering session. Today, I was accompanying William’s dad, Mathew, to go golfing at a prestigious golf club that he was a member of. I’ve never golfed before or even ever considered doing it because it sounded boring and it was always classified as a rich people sport but there is surely a first time for everything, right?Mathew was taking me to his private golf club so I had to dress appropriately since it was obvious that we were likely to not be alone. I texted Hazel letting her know about what I would be doing today and also to ask for her help in getting ready since I had no idea about what people wear to a golf club. William as usual wasn’t home at the time. If I was not staying in this house, I would think he had a room where he sleeps every day in his office. I dried my body with my towel before walking out of the bathroom and I met Hazel seated on my bed with my outfit for the day laid beside her waiting for me“Hi

William’s P.O.V.I gently adjusted my posture as I moved my head from left to right, This was an attempt to get the relentless ache out of my neck. I sunk further into my chair closing my eyes. Here's to ending yet another stressful day at the office, I knew I was a workaholic, it was a badge I wore with pride and latitude. I usually never come into the office during the weekends but today was an exception as an urgent matter needed my attention here and I guess it pulled me back to the office today. The next coming days are very crucial. My company is launching a new product soon and I have to do everything in my power to make it a successful launch and nothing less.I opened my eyes after a few minutes and picked up my slick iPhone to glance at the time that read that it was past noon before placing the phone back face down on the table. I shut down my laptop, and closed the files on my table before getting up, picking up my keys and phone, making my way to Luke's office down below.
