All Chapters of In Bed With The MC President: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

MilaAs soon as the door clicked shut, I dropped to the floor and quickly grab Dr. Rose’s phone from under the bed.I didn't have time to think futher. I ran into the massive walk-in closet and shoved the cell phone deep into the toe of a winter boot hidden in the very back corner. It was a terrible hiding spot but it was the best I could do in ten minutes.Keep your head down, Justin had said. We have a plan.I took a deep breath, forcing myself to stay still. I packed a suitcase with the most expensive, glamorous clothes Caleb had bought for me.Then I turned to the rack of clothes. The blue silk dress was hanging right in the front.I slipped it on. Then I sat at the vanity mirror and quickly applied makeup, carefully covering my pale skin and the redness around my eyes."Mila. It is time."Caleb’s voice came before ten minutes. He was standing in the doorway of the closet, checking his watch.I stood up, smoothing down the front of the silk dress. "I am ready."Two hours later, we

RyanMila was trembling in my arms. I pulled her closer, pressing her soft curve against my chest. I wanted her to feel calm beating of my heart. I wanted her to know that the nightmare was finally coming to an end.We glided across the polished marble floor as the orchestra began to play. Around us, the wealthiest people in the city watched in complete silence. And standing atthe corner of the dance floor, Caleb Sterling looked like he was slowly dying from the inside out.I made sure to keep my back straight to shield Mila from his view. For these three minutes, she belonged entirely to me.She tilted her head backa and her beautiful, tear-filled eyes met my gaze. She looked so entirely confused, like she was trying to wake up from a dream."Ryan... how?" She breathed, keeping her voice low. "The Empire Group? Mr. Richard? I don't understand. Why didn't you ever tell me?"I kept my hand firmly pressed against her back, guiding her smoothly through the steps of the waltz."My real

MilaCaleb spun around to look at me and his eyes widened immediately in terror. The side of his head was wet with dark blood from where I had hit him with the clock. He looked like a monster that had been caught in the middle of a kill."Mila." Dr. Rose whispered. Her eyes went straight to my neck. She saw the marks. She saw the fear in my eyes."Get back in the bathroom. Do what you were doing, darling." Caleb snapped, trying to step between us. He forced a pathetic smile onto his face as he looked at Dr. Rose. "I apologize, Doctor. We had a... a small domestic disagreement. My fiancee is very emotional due to the pregnancy. She fell. I was just trying to help her up.""She didn't fall, Caleb.” I argued as I took a step toward Dr. Rose, away from the man who wanted to break me. "He tried to choke me. He said he was going to break me."The silence fell and I could hear the distant sound of the ocean waves. Dr. Rose’s brows furrowed. She didn’t look like a doctor now. She didn't eve

MilaThe medical wing on the lower deck of the ship was completely quiet. I sat on the padded exam table, shivering uncontrollably. The pure adrenaline that had kept me fighting was finally leaving my body, leaving me feeling exhausted, and incredibly weak.Rose gently wrapped a warm, white blanket around my shoulders. "You are safe now, Mila." She said softly, her voice returning to the warm, caring tone I was used to. "Take a deep breath. It is all over."She stood in front of me with a small medical tray. Very carefully, she applied a soothing ointment to my neck. I winced slightly when her fingers brushed over the swollen skin where Caleb had grabbed me."I am sorry." Rose whispered, her eyes filling with sympathy. "I know it hurts. The bruising will look dark for a few days, but there is no permanent damage to your windpipe. You are going to heal.""Thank you." I said as a fresh tear slid down my cheek. "For everything. For pretending to be my doctor. For saving me."She offered

MilaThe morning sun poured through the glass windows of the cabin, waking me up with a warm light.It had been three days since I had been waking up wrapped in the warm duvet, surrounded by the scent of Ryan. It had been three days of my fairytale on the cruise. Ryan and Rose took care of me like I was a toddler. Ryan showed me around the ship and we enjoyed sunsets together. Whenever anyone questioned me, he was there to shut them off.Ryan was already awake. He was dressed in his black suit trousers and a fresh white button-down shirt. He hadn't put on a tie, and a few top buttons were left undone. He was standing by the window, watching the city harbor slowly getting closer as the giant ship prepared to dock.When he heard me move, he instantly turned around. The hard, serious look on his face melted into something incredibly soft."Good morning." He said, walking over and sitting on the the bed. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. "How are you feeling?""Safe." I whispered, s
