The CEO'S Contract Husband のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Sophia’s povThe china clinked faintly as I sliced into the fluffy omelet on my plate. I was eating breakfast, sipping coffee, when one of the servers crouched down casually to murmur discreetly so that other diners would not overhear."Miss Sophia... there's a lady wanting you."I used a linen napkin to pat my lips. “A woman?”“Yes. Ma’am. Her name is Lydia.”I nodded and leaned back in my seat as I tilted my head. Lydia huh. Finally. I was thinking she would stand me up but hey… she was here.“Show her straight through.” I replied, my voice sharp but steady.The server nodded and retreated. Slowly I sat back, stirred the drink with a spoon though I wasn’t thirsty.I closed my eyes and thought of something that I wasn’t supposed to think about. Would she come this morning and surprise me?Would she be all dressed in dignity?I don’t know what was thinking but when she showed up, she was worse than I was expecting.She wasn’t hideous, no. But she was painfully… ordinary. Mid-aged, tim

Sophia’s povLooking at the woman before me I saw how different she was.With her aura being high with her new clothing, it made me know I had done something good. At least she was going to seduce half the men in this town with her new found body.I took her to an expensive hotel and we got into the room as I showed her around. “This place will be good for the job. Now remember, I want a clean job. I don't want you falling my hand. If I need that done I'll call my maids. Even my dogs are far better than they are.”She gulped as I knew my points were getting across to her.“What should I do now?" She asked in a timid voice as I faceslapped myself." Weren't you listening to me?” I almost yelped in anger. " I said call him. It's that simple. God you're frustrating the fuck out of me.”She nodded as I looked at her and at that point I knew she would not make this work. She was useless. It was better I find a way to make this work than depend on her. It was clear she was going to fail me.

Sophia’s povI was paralyzed, stuck in the middle of that crappy motel room, my hands shaking but I’d never admit it. The nerve... no, the audacity of that woman. Lydia stood there in front of me talking to me as if I were the one who was weak.Her words still echoed in my ears. Go seduce Alex yourself! You lost him!Who did she think she was to talk to me like that?I could make her life a living hell. I could destroy her. Did she not know that?Like, I could just easily call my men and they would find where she is and make her life a living hell.But then it hit me that she was nothing to me but a sick puppy. That would be a waste of my time. I needed to let her go. She was not that important to me anyway.But it hurt that someone like that could talk to me like that and get away with it. Oh she had not seen the last of me yet. She was about to know who I really was.I took my bag and walked to the door and looked back to see the room again as the images played in my head once again

Dennis’ povThe key turned in the lock as I got into the house. The drive home had been all about shaking off the… the weirdness of the hotel. Lydia’s face, all desperate and hopeful in that expensive room that smelled like bleach and mistakes.She just didn’t get it.What part of ‘I’m married’ is wrong? And not just married. Married to him. Alex.I pushed the door open and the first thing I felt was cold. Not broken air conditioner cold or anything like that but… on purpose cold. Crisp night kind of chilly but inside the house. And smell? Flowers. I looked to the fooor and saw rose petals, fanned out across the dark floor from the front door and leading into the stairs. Red ones. Dark red. It was then that a sound got to my ear. Music. The kind of music that’s all bass and no vocals.“Um,” I said in shock, “what?”I wasn’t planning to come back to this but to be honest there was only one person that could do this and that was none other but the great Alex.It was then that I notice

Alex’s povThis was not how I planned the night to go. I had waited for him to come back so we could have a romantic date. But here we were and I hated everything.I started to feel guilty for how things were turning out. It didn’t take long before he joined me to pack up a few things as we both zipped up our things and he sat down on the bed with a sad aura around him.“We really need to be on our way,” I said in a calm manner.“How long will we stay in the family house?” He asked as I sighed.“Dennis…”“How long?”I sighed. “A few weeks.”“So we’ll live there for the three weeks we will be there?”“The place is a big place. I doubt they’d notice anything.”He stood up to face me. “We’d be the only gay couple there. God knows what they’ll say to us.”Before I could say anything he carried his bags and walked out of the room as I started to dress up for the outing.***The limo was too quiet. That was the first thing that got to me.The hum of the cars engine as it purred through the
