Semua Bab THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU : Bab 61 - Bab 70

Mile’s POVI’m not sure if I achieved anything at work today but I managed to keep my mind away from the harmful thoughts plaguing me.I had the messenger deliver me six cups of coffee at intervals. I skipped lunch, turned down Henry’s offer for a report, and managed to sit through a meeting with the new accountant.It’s past 4 pm according to my watch. I’m sure Sam was already at the parking lot waiting for me so I stood up and grabbed my suitcase.I was about to dash out of the office when my phone buzzed. I immediately swiped and read through the message.My eyes widened.It was a text from Lily. The first reply I was getting from her after days of texting her.‘Dinner today?’I dropped the suitcase and immediately texted her back. I told her I had just closed from work and could meet her anywhere she wanted if she was willing to head out right now.She dropped an address.I sighed and slipped the phone inside my jacket. Perhaps, a getaway with her could give me some time off from

Grayham’s POVI stared at the cell phone and then blinked repeatedly. Was Miles judging me? What gave him the right to ask such a question? I fumed and dumped the phone on the bed.Blair was a girl I met in college and she had been all over me since.I’ve fucked her twice or maybe multiple times but that shit doesn’t mean anything to me. She had a way of showing up when I was in a mess. It was either when I was drunk, depressed, or stressed.To me, Blair was just an object of relieving stress and when she started pestering me for a relationship, I decided to ditch her.On several occasions, I had told her to stay away from me but she wouldn’t stop showing up. I had a feeling that my Grandpa wanted me to be with Blair very badly. That explains why she showed up when I needed comfort the most. With Blair, there was no comfort. The sex was boring, unreal, and didn’t just feel right.So one day, I told her to never show her face in my house again and then I blacklisted her. Now that I’ve

Mile’s POVThe car swerved down the road as Sam drove toward the route leading to the company. It was a new day, another day to play businessman.We reached the company lane and Sam was about to take a sharp turn when a man suddenly appeared out of nowhere.“Watch it!” I cried out and immediately sat up.Sam managed to pull the brakes and the man passed without sustaining a scratch but then, he wasn’t crossing the street like I assumed. He was making his way toward the car.I pulled down the reflectors and wondered what kind of man would risk his life just to meet me.A tall man with blonde hair suddenly appeared on my side.“Hello!” He flashed a smile and took off his glasses.“Hi.” I cleared my throat loudly and rolled my eyes around the strange man. “You almost got killed,” I said.Was he here to thank me?He smiled.I turned to Sam. “Let’s go.”“Can you spare a moment?” The man said. “I’d like to talk to you.”I arched a brow and studied him more carefully. He practically looked h

Mile’s POV“And how long would this retreat last?” Grayham’s Granpa demanded as we swerved down the road home.I crossed my legs. “Two days at most,” I said and cleared my throat loudly.While the gala was ongoing, Nathan texted me that he was able to communicate with the folklore expert. The man was expecting Grayham and me at his residence by tomorrow or the day after.Since he was based in Boston, Grayham and I would have to leave the city first thing tomorrow morning so we could meet up with him.I needed an excuse to get away from home and coming up with one was easy. I just told Graham’s Granpa that I would be traveling for a business retreat in Boston, New York City.“Best of luck!” He said and stifled a yawn with the back of his palm.I turned to Lily and noticed that she was curled up in her seat, fast asleep. I think she had a good time today even though she mostly stayed behind me. I’m sure when I bring her out a few more times, she’ll get used to the spotlight. Just like I

Mile’s POVThe receptionist took down all the necessary details and finally handed over the key to the executive suite to Grayham. He turned around.I heaved a sigh of relief and began following him toward the hallway. The room number was 409 and it was the first room on the second floor by the right as the receptionist said.We made it to the door. Grayham slipped the key and unlocked the room. He was the first to walk in then I followed.While Grayham marched to the bedroom, I stood in the center of the living room to look around. I think a small family can call this place home because the living room is spacious enough. Two sofas separated by a glass table were facing each other. A Persian rug covered the floor and not only was the room airy, it smelled of lavender. There was a mini refrigerator, a microwave, and a tiny bookshelf in the corner.“The bed is big enough for two.” I heard Grayham say.I moved to the bedroom and saw him sprawled on the king-size bed. The bedroom was big
