When Lulu woke up David Carlson was not next to her. She stretched and got to her feet her hand was not hurting as much as it did before. She tried to take her shirt off but her bandaged hands were serving useless , she only managed to get it halfway over her head before she gave up with struggling groans as the shirt was stuck. She gasped when it slid off freely. "What do you think you're doing right now?" "I have no idea, I wanted to try to bathe." "I'll get Millet," he said not wanting to make her uncomfortable as he did last time. "Thank you Mr Carlson." She watched as he took his leave. He suddenly stopped by the door, "how is your hand now." "I think I can wiggle it a lot better now." "That's great, it should be healed by tonight or the next morning." "Thank you Mr Carlson," she smiled, "and I'm sorry about last night." Soon enough, Millet came in to help her with dressing up. "I'm sorry about your injury." "It's okay it was all my fault." "You didn't do any

She slowly extended one hand out to him regardless of the awkward silence. He unraveled the bandages and asked in a low voice, "can you wriggle them." She tried to close her hand in a small fist, "I think so." She stared into his eyes for a moment before attempting to step down from the counter. She felt her heart was beating too fast. She began to stir the cake batter. It was hard to do since her hand was still hurting. He came to stand behind her, assisting her hand. She almost passed out, was she imagining it? She felt something sharp was stabbing her from behind? Was that his... He cleared his throat and moved backwards a little bit more. They set it in the oven. "Why do you bother to do things like this when there are so many people that would willingly do it all for you?" He wondered. "That doesn't mean we should take advantage of it, besides it's fun." "I can't find any element of fun in what I'm doing right now." She turned around to look at him with a small smi

Lulu didn't expect that question. She was suddenly glued to the ground. "I asked you a question, didn't I?" He got to his feet. "Jealous? I have no reasons to be jealous." "Good, and I'm hoping you don't forget that for any reason at all. No matter what, you must remember that." He closed the distance between the two of them and shook his head at her, "you and I have nothing together other than the contract, you're getting too immersed in your role as Mrs Carlson, questioning my actions, you're forgetting that you're only a surrogate here." Lulu swallowed a growing lump in her throat, "do not question anything I do, simply just follow the goddamn contract, don't ask me any questions about my personal life, I wouldn't even care if you were seeing someone in secret as long as it doesn't ruin the image we have created with the public." Lulu found tears were welling in her eyes, "Mr Carlson, I..." "So stay within your limits, no one has the right to question me, especially not y

Lulu felt she had become more professional with the cameras by now. "Thank you so much," she said to the paparazzi as she made her way into the event hall. Many big faces were gathered here as usual. Lulu smiled and waved at them all, she even knew some of their names by now. David walked behind

David had already made an excuse to say to her from within his mind but when he looked around Lulu was nowhere to be found.He frowned and waited on the bed tapping his feet impatiently against the ground, "she must have gone to the bathroom so I better wait here for her." He was going to keep waiting when he realized time was moving fast He knocked the bathroom door and there was no response. He turned the door knob, she wasn't in there either. Giving up, he headed downstairs, looked in the kitchen and living room but there was no sight of her. "Is there something you're looking for sir?" Millet asked him. "Where's Lulu?" "She went out with you, didn't she, sir?" Steven popped into the living room and didn't need anyone to tell him what had happened, "right on it sir." He said and went to do as needed. "So you haven't seen any sight of her at home?" "I would have kept an eye out if I knew you were planning on showing up much earlier, is everything fine sir?" David ignored
