— JENNIFER—Saying goodbye to Alex, Anya and Mathhe, I followed Christian towards the same Black Mercedes that I once had the urge to break. I didn't expect him to open the door for me like a gentleman, and he didn't disappoint me. Walking towards the driver's seat, he climbed in and sighed before getting inside. I doubt he would wait for me to get in and won't drive away. The car ride was silent, scaringly silent. And since I'm not a very fan of silence, these were the hardest fifteen minutes of my whole existence. My tongue was itching to speak but the human rock beside me didn't even glance to check If I was alive or not, even if I was present beside him or not. The devil he is. Only when the car entered inside a society and he parked it, my soul reentered in my body. At Least I can talk to the walls of his house now!! He climbed out of the car and just like a gentleman that he is, headed towards the lift without waiting for me. He even left the car unlocked so that he wouldn

—CHRISTIAN—I drove my car straight towards Dad's office with clenched jaws and white knuckles. This woman never leaves a single chance to piss me off. The fury in those chocolate orbs and the sharpness of that tongue of hers is driving me crazy. And definitely not in a good way. I might have killed her if she hadn't closed her door after saying those words. The audacity!! I choked the steering wheel, thinking it's her neck, nearing Dad's office. Finally I'm going to get what's mine, what I deserve. Parking the car, I climbed out and headed inside his building, only to meet with so many smiling faces. As soon as I entered inside, a small blast happened, making me hault in my tracks. "Surpriseeeeeeee" Everyone shouted together as the confetti rained on me, filling my hair and clothes.I looked to find the whole office gathered In the office entrance. As they parted sideways, a big cake was revealed with ‘Congratulations’ written on it. Another reminder of my doomed life. My anger

—CHRISTIAN—SIX PEACEFUL DAYS, without any mention of marriage or my wife. What more could I have asked for in my life after this torturous time period of getting reminders of me being tied to her. I finally felt a bit light after a long while and because of it I could focus on my work here. The only way I feel relaxed is doing my work in the best way and having it successfully done. After working my ass off for all these days, finally the deal with Walkers, London's most influential name in the food industry, has been locked today. This merger between the two companies for a project was hell of important for me and finally I can sleep peacefully tonight. Right now I was in the hotel, where a party to celebrate the finalisation of our deal is being held. “ Cheers to the new beginning!! “ Devis Walker, the CEO of Walkers Group, raised his glass in the air to give a green flag to the celebration. We all chased his action before sipping our drinks. “ Alright,your business avtar is a

—JENNIFER—I waved a bye to the trio with a hammering heart as the door to the elevator got closed, making them disappear. If only I could just go with them. I couldn't muster the courage to go back inside and face the person who's my husband now. It's been one week since our marriage but his absence kind of made me forget the reality that I'm married now. That too, to a person who hates me. Not that I've any different thing in my mind for him. “ Are you planning on sleeping outside?? “ Hot breaths hit my neck, making me jump at the sudden intrusion in my thoughts.I unconsciously turned back to face him and found him breathing down at me. His dark eyes staring in mine as if trying to make a way to my soul. His one brow was slightly raised and head tilted sideways.“ No. “ I mumbled before taking a step back then walking past him. Or, I tried. Because before I could, he caught my wrist and next I knew that I was pinned on the wall. His both hands were holding my wrists, not so tig

—JENNIFER—Waking up on Christian hissing and barking at his employees early in the morning has become my habit now. But it doesn't stop me from cursing him in as many different ways as I can. After Doing my routine of cursing him while heading towards the bathroom, I took a shower and got ready for my university. The last three days have been really hectic for me. I've been busy doing my assignments. And in all this, Christian and I've been on silent terms. We don't talk or even argue. He ignores me and I ignore him. It's kind of been easy for me to live here but definitely not favouring my survival. Talking is my LIVE language and being here silent all the time is not at all making me feel normal. Although I have made myself comfortable with the wall and bookshelf of my room to talk, I believe human interaction is also important to remind yourself of being human yourself. But, who am I even kidding with? I don't actually live with a human but a living rock instead. “ A hot as fu
