CHAPTER ELEVEN

*SIENNA*Alexander laughed, flashing his perfect white teeth.He looked incredibly handsome at that moment."You don't smell nice," he stated bluntly.Ouch.I discreetly sniffed my arms.He was right, and I felt mortified."I'll go home and take a shower.""The bidding starts at 9 and we need everything ready by 8:30. Can you really make it home and back that quickly?"I frowned.I'd never attended a meeting like this before.My team and I just work on the project, then the manager or CEO presents it.As though he could read my mind, he explained."You did the calculations. You need to be there to answer any questions they might ask."I nodded slowly.It would take an hour to get home, shower, and get dressed...And since it's Monday, traffic would definitely be heavy.I'd worked too hard this past week to let it all fall apart now."I'll...I'll shower here," I agreed."Good. Be quick, before the other employees arrive." He left the office to make some printouts.I walked slowly towa

CHAPTER TWELVE

*SIENNA*Alexander cleared his throat and stepped backward."You...you need to change out of my shirt and put your own clothes on. I'll get Stella to leave, then meet me at my car. Don't make me wait. We're already behind schedule." He warned before leaving.I hurriedly changed back into my clothes.I tiptoed toward the door and eased it open carefully, peeking through ,Stella was nowhere in sight.Letting out a relieved breath, I slipped out of his office and made my way to the elevator.At the parking lot, I found him standing beside his SUV.A man I guessed was his driver sat ready in the front seat."Get in," he said curtly, already turning to climb into the back passenger seat.I rolled my eyes.He couldn't even make the effort to open the door for me.Once I settled in, we pulled away.The drive began in complete silence.We sat side by side with some distance between us.The sound of rustling papers drew my attention, and I turned to see him reviewing the project documents.He

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

*SIENNA*At last, the meeting was over.The conference room doors opened and people began filing out.Alexander emerged and I searched his face, trying to gauge whether things had gone well for the company.But his expression was stone-cold.This could only mean the project had been rejected."Mr. Graves?" I started hesitantly."Let's go," he said flatly and began walking away.I trailed behind him, my mind racing about what came next.I was definitely getting fired.I'd have to start job hunting all over again.Hopefully I'll find something quickly.Though I knew it wouldn't be simple.We joined a group of people waiting for the elevator.I positioned myself behind Alexander, unsure of what to say.How could I comfort him?How could I ease the tension?He turned around suddenly and asked, "Why haven't you asked me about the meeting?"I blinked.Was there really any point in asking?His face said everything.But I swallowed hard and asked anyway, "How did it go?""Our company won the

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

*SIENNA*I took a steadying breath as I knocked on the door of his office. “Yes,Come in. I walked in and spoke respectfully.You asked for me, Sir.I looked up and faltered at the angry expression on his face."What's his problem?!"Do you think you can manipulate me just because I had a one night stand with you?“I'm not that weak, woman, “he growled.I was completely confused."Actually, he was the one trying to seduce me in the elevator! Right now, I was willing to say anything in my defense."I don't understand what you're talking about, and I'm not interested in you, sir.He sneered."I don't get you. One minute you're sweet and funny, the next you seem manipulative. And I hate manipulative women!”Anger flared through me at his words."How exactly am I manipulative?"Did I cause that mob in the elevator?Did I beg him to help me?Did I ask him to press his dick against my ass?"If he wasn't my boss, I would have torn into him."You say you're not interested in me, but you left

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

*SIENNA*My hand clenched as I approached them.Good morning, sir,” I greeted Graves politely. As for Lena, I pretended I didn’t see her.I stepped aside to continue walking , but Lena blocked me.Are you really going to pretend you didn't see me, sister?I looked at her coldly. We aren't sisters.”You're related to my stepfather, and that makes us family too. You know...after you confronted him at Uncle Darlington's party that day, he got sick for a few days. You didn't even come to see him.I bristled.How was I supposed to know he was sick?And if I remember correctly, it's none of my business.Was she really trying to make me look like a bad person right now?“Lena, I'm sure you and your mother took care of him. I don't need to worry since you two stole that responsibility from us."She stiffened."Aren't you ever tired of playing the pity party?”I looked at Graves and knew it wasn't mature to continue this argument with Lena, so I walked off.I got to my desk and slumped into my

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

*SIENNA*Later that day, I locked myself in the company's restroom.I know I should think of a way forward but my mind was in turmoil.Sure I've had plans of getting married and having kids before but I really don't see it happening soon.And I certainly didn't dare to imagine getting pregnant anytime soon.I placed my hands on my belly.I can't believe a little baby is growing inside of me.I have thought about abortion...Should I go for it?I wasn't really capable of raising a child...! I wasn't prepared for it.But thinking about aborting this baby made me feel nauseous.Clara’s words ran through my head....I should really tell Graves about this.He has to know.I walked out of the restroom and headed for his officeI knocked on the door and his voice instructed me to come in.I walked in to find Stella also in his office."Can I talk to you, sir?Alone?"I asked.He frowned minutely but nodded.Stella walked out of the office."What is it, Sienna?"He asked, leaning against the cha

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

*SIENNA*I took a slow, steady breath. “Why would you want us to get married? Marriage… is for people who are in love.Sienna, if you’re keeping this baby, my baby, I don’t want people to see it as an illegitimate child. That’s why I want us to get married, to give him or her a proper home.What he said really touched me, and it made sense too.I remembered the early years of my life… I had been so happy having both parents, but when my dad abandoned us, my life changed. It wasn’t all that bad, but it was never the same again.I truly want this child to have a mom and a dad.I glanced at Graves, and fear gripped me.He was not a common man. He was successful and wealthy.The female employees were all over him… Hell, even Lena seemed drawn to him.Being with a man like him would be incredibly stressful.The two of us did not fit.He stood up and paced around the table, then suddenly took my hand.His hands were warm, and I felt an unexpected urge to lean into him… to find comfort in h

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

*SIENNA*Sensing my arrival, my mom turned around.Oh…hello, Sweetheart.I mustered a smile and stepped closer to her.Has your boss gotten back to you about… you know.” my mom asked.“I gently sat beside her.Yes, he did.""And?"“He suggested we get married.”“What?” I agreed. And I signed the marriage certificate.” I pulled out the paper and handed it to her.She scowled.Why would you? I mean… how? Marriage is such a serious thing. You can’t just rush into it like this.“I wanted to make sure the child wouldn’t be seen as born out of wedlock…”Do you even know this guy?Wanting to reassure her, I nodded.What is his age?I had seen his birth certificate. He was five years older than me.Thirty-Two.“What kind of person is he? And what are his parents like?“I…I ’ll get to know his family with time, but Alexander is kind and considerate,” I said.It wasn’t entirely a lie. At times, he was nice and considerate.“Oh… I would have been so happy if things had worked out between you a

CHAPTER NINETEEN

*SIENNA*I was completely confused. My husband hadn’t contacted me for a whole week.The last time we talked was when he dropped me off at my place… he promised he would call later.What exactly did he mean by later?If I had known he would disappear like this, I wouldn't have signed the damn certificate.He had convinced me it was all for the baby, that the child deserved both parents and a stable home.But this wasn't how marriage was supposed to be.Were we only married on papers?I don't understand that man at all.And worse, my colleagues were starting to think that I'd lied about getting married.Honestly...there was no proof of it...And it was a bit depressing.That afternoon, my phone buzzed-it was Edger.Hello. I said awkwardly.I haven't heard from you in a while. You barely answer my calls or respond to my texts," he said.I froze.I didn't know how to explain to him I'd gotten married.A very messy marriage at that.I have been so busy, I lied."Oh, I wish you didn't hav

CHAPTER TWENTY

*SIENNA*Please, you can call me by my name," I said politely.Brad chuckled. "You're Mrs. Graves now, and I prefer to call you that.My heart clenched.But it doesn't look as if I'm married.Brad escorted me to a private room.I walked in to see various dishes spread across the table.Then I glanced up to see Alexander's broad back…he stood in front of the window.He turned around and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand on the table."Sit down...let's eat," he said and took his seat.I nervously took my seat, and when I picked up the silverware, I noticed most of the plates were loaded with vegetables of all kinds.No meat?Why aren't you eating? Is something wrong with the food?" Alexander asked."I do," I answered and ate some of the vegetables.I tasted some from another plate.They were tasty, but I wasn't accustomed to eating only vegetables.I really liked meat.Was he vegetarian or what?"Are you a vegetarian?" I asked politely."No. You said you wanted vegetables for dinner
