All Chapters of Hired Wife: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Allison Rosalind looked like someone had just poured a bucket of ice on her.She glared at me with so much hatred, I might as well have burned to the ground."Your guests might find it rude of you to keep your son's girlfriend waiting outside the party. Don't you think, Rosalind?" I knew she hated being called by her full name so I called her by her full name."It's Rose." She pronounced each word precisely which was a waste of precious time.I will always refer to her as Rosalind."It's getting late, mom. We should return to the party." Unlike me, Christopher was very careful with his choice of words around his mother.Without waiting for a response from her, Christopher wrapped his arm around me and walked into the party.It was refreshing seeing her unable to react the way she wanted to because she couldn't ruin the evening for her son.Safe to say I had Rosalind wrapped around my finger for the night."You said it was just dinner with your mother, Christopher. Who are all these p

Allison I woke up to a text from Charles the next morning informing me of his visit.I knew Christopher would never apologize for his rude behavior last night so I wondered what Charles could have come for.At exactly ten PM as he had mentioned in his text, Charles was at my door."Good morning, Charles." I greeted him and let him in."What is happening?" I frowned when I saw another man behind him."Good morning, ma'am." The man greeted respectfully."Good morning, Miss Davies. This is your new chauffeur, Mr James." Charles gestured toward the man."What?!" How could Christopher change my chauffeur?Why would he do that, especially without informing me first?"This is unacceptable." There was no way I was going to let Liam go without getting back at him for what he did."Mr Jacobs concluded that it wouldn't be safe to have your.....Mr William as your chauffeur." He didn't speak further but he didn't need to. I could hear the words he never said loud and clear.Christopher doesn't w

Allison The gallery smelled faintly of old vanish and expensive Perfumes.This was where wealthye art enthusiasts spent their day.I had dressed like the elites, going for a sleek black satin dress that flaunted my curves without necessarily screaming for attention.It stopped just below my knees and had a slit that didn't show too much but rather, promised just enough.I had added a cropped cream blazer to the gown to give my look a soft finishing touch.My silver heels perfectly matched my dress.Christopher has been kind enough to shop for jewelries for me.Of course he had ruined that kindness by not informing me before sending the jewelries over.I had immediately fallen in love with a particular pair of diamond earrings.They were minimal but the diamond on them brought enough attention.Since my entire look was more on the modest side, I had opted for a thin silver bracelet to decorate my wrist.I styled my hair in a loose chignon- a hairstyle Francesco had advised me to opt f

Christopher Immediately we got into the car, she let out her anger, loudly."What he fuck was that, Jacobs?!"I ignored her and simply scrolled through my phone, looking at the already uploaded pictures of us.We looked truly in love.The shocked look on Allison's face and her tears after accepting the ring were the cherries on the ice.I had to give it to her, she was a wonderful actress."Good job with the preparations, Charles." According to him, he hadn't even completed the preparations when Allison forced me to hasten the proposal.Yet, it still turned out perfectly beautiful."Congratulations to you, Sir. Congratulations to you, Miss Davies.""This isn't even real!" She screamed at Charles who immediately went quiet."You should have informed me earlier, about the proposal." She continued complaining."You know," I turned to her, finally deciding to speak to her."Now that I think about it, I think it was a better decision not to have informed you. The shocked expression on you

Christopher She walked away and never looked back.Even when she slammed her door shut, I couldn't look away.I watched from outside as the light flicked on in her window upstairs.I saw her her silhouette by her window.She hesitated as if waitingto watch me drive away but eventually gave up and walked away.She knew I was still out here, watching her.Even after she walked away from her window, I sat there like a fool, staring at her house and imagining what would have happened if she never pulled away fast enough.I could have kissed her.I could have kissed the very person that irritated me the most in the entire Universe.Worse?She would have never let me forget it.Had she been unsettled too?Or was she laughing at how she was going to use that short moment against me for the rest of my life?"Sir?" I heard Charles voice from the driver's seat.He had witnessed everything but that wasn't half as embarrassing as Allison watching me from her house right now."Go ahead." He got
