บททั้งหมดของ Contract with the billionaire : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Alex sat in his office, remembering his own words. He had told her to get ready for it, but he wouldn't, at any cost, force her for this because that wasn't his fault. Of course, he had his own twisted ways to get the work done, but forcing someone didn't sit well with him.His thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. He allowed the person to enter, and George came in with a file in his hands."Sir, your signatures are needed on these papers," George informed, keeping the file in front of him and standing patiently.Alex glanced at the papers, read them first, and then signed before handing them back to George."Is Ella taken care of?" he asked, and George fumbled, trying to form an answer."Sir, she is threatening to pull a publicity stunt. Didn't give the details but left with a warning and a very pissed-off mood." George kept looking at his boss's face with nervousness."Such a nuisance," Alex sighed, shaking his head, and dismissed George with a wave of his hand. George si

Alex stood in front of the mirror and glanced at Mia's sleeping figure through it, for the second time. He had no idea why he didn't ask her to leave his room when she had her own.Another thing, he had no idea what had gotten into him yesterday while having sex with her because he was never this gentle.But one thing he knew, she was too innocent and he could make that out just by looking at her face.But for him, it was only a physical relationship until she got pregnant and that was it. He was sure nothing of this sort was going to happen if the IVF would have worked.He glanced at her sleeping figure again and noticed she was awake and was already wearing her nightie again.Sighing, he fixed his blazer and buttoned it properly before leaving the room quietly. As soon as he left, Mia plopped on her elbows to see if he was really gone and then sighed dropping on the bed.She had been up the moment he had stepped out of the bathroom, but pretended to be asleep to avoid any kind of con

The results were positive. She is pregnant. Even though she had it in her instincts, having it officially declared by the doctor had made her ecstatic. As expected, Alex had his cold face on even when the doctor had smiled and congratulated them on the news. It didn't affect her, but the doctor was sure giving them weird looks. As they reached home, Alex sought out some work on his phone and Mia was confused as to why he wasn't leaving for his work. Only when he finished the call, he turned to her, she knew something was up because he only talked to her when there was something important to talk about. "I've appointed a full time caretaker for you, who will be here by tomorrow. She will be with you the whole day, so if you need anything, tell her." He informed her, and she felt a little bit hurt realising she couldn't even show her mood swings to him because he would not want her to unnecessarily bother him. "But what if I want to go out for a walk or some yoga class? You said

Six months passed, and Mia was more than happy in these months because she always had Rachel and Chloe by her side. Fortunately for her, Alex was staying at home, the reason which is still unknown to her, but he hadn't made his presence too known even though he was living with her. The one thing that made her guilty was avoiding Mark. He used to visit the mansion quite often but every time she would see him, she would either avert her eyes or leave the room. It wasn't as if he tried talking to her as well. He kept his distance from her and she did the same, although unwillingly. She tried to concentrate only on herself and the baby, and it was successful to quite an extent. A small yet visible bump was seen now that she was 17 weeks pregnant, and when Chole had seen it she couldn't stop gushing over it. It felt like the tiny being inside her had already wrapped everyone around her/his pinky figure except the father of course because she doubted that he had even noticed the bump.

Mia's excited mood had been successfully ruined by Alexander, and that is always confirmed. He will be the only one who can turn her mood from sweet to sour in less than a minute. Currently, the four of them were travelling to where Mia was earlier heading to, but with her grumpy mood. Rachel and Mia sat at the back seat. Whereas, Mark sat beside Alex who drove the car. "Are you going to tell me where you want to go or I have to keep driving aimlessly?" Alex's voice broke the silence in the car, but all of them thought that the silence was better. Mia gave him a sharp look before she snapped at him, "Before this, you never asked where I wanted to go." Alex's grip on the steering wheel tightened, as he gave her a cold stare through the mirror and Mia saw it but ignoring it, she looked out of the window. "Mia, where to?" It was Mark this time who had turned around in his seat and asked her softly. Mia looked at him and sighed. "You know where Mark," She simply said, and Mark frow
