All Chapters of Playboy's Secret Wife: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

41. Back off>I am sitting in my office immersed in my work. My phone pings and I cannot help but check if it’s Sophie. It’s not. Sophie is pissed at me, and she is pissed big time.I tried to get in touch with her a few times since Saturday morning, and she hasn’t replied yet. Me: ‘I had to leave for an emergency. I sent a girl to your room. I hope you met her and didn’t leave in the middle of the night.’That was on Saturday morning.I had called her on Saturday evening, and she didn’t pick up my call. On Sunday afternoon, I sent one more text.Me: ‘Are you still pissed at me? I am sorry Sophie. I am not lying.’ When I read the message again, I grimace. It’s rare for me to apologize. I wish she had appreciated this rare occasion. It was stupid of me to get obsessed with her at first place. I guess it’s high time to back off.……The intercom rings and I hear Emma’s voice, ”Isha is here. I have given her a brief. Do you want to talk to her first?”“Yea. Send her in.”O

43. PI Report>Having breakfast at Dom’s club lounge was a good idea. Surprisingly, I met some people who could give me a potential investment opportunity. We had decent conversations and shared contact information. Some people were eyeing me. I assume it was odd to share information at a kinky club. I don’t know. But I didn’t care.I have been contemplating a lot and have decided to make some investments in California before I head back to New York. I will contact my consultant before making a final decision, but it doesn’t hurt to explore on my own.Right now, my funds from M are split into high yield mutual funds and a savings account, respectively. I asked him what the source of the money was.He was cocky at first but told me eventually. “It’s a trust fund money I couldn’t access if I was single.”“Loopholes.” I teased him and he chuckled.Despite the short time we had, because we were mostly horny and fooling around, he still managed to give me some wise suggestio

45. Helicopter Ride>In the Hotel lobby I meet uncle Orin, and he takes us to Newport beach.“Aren’t you joining us?“ I ask while getting out of the car, and he laughs it off. He has lived away from his family all his life and meets them once or twice a year. His wife died decades ago, and he never married again. It does make me wonder if uncle Orin has a girlfriend. I have seen older people dating, but I rarely notice Uncle Orin go out of the house, let alone date.Although I remember a woman he liked. At least I got a vibe that they liked each other. She was the head of gardening. But after coming back here, I didn’t see her around.Wouldn’t it be fun to mess with him? I grin, making a plan in my head.“Orin has invited his daughter to the states,“ Dad tells me once we walk towards the helipad.“Oh!” I know he is from Russia and his whole life he has worked for the good of his family. He sacrificed so they could have better opportunities in their life. I sometimes use

47. Caleb>I make my way towards the beach. It’s a full moon and everything looks brighter. A little spooky even. I love this moment right now. I will join everyone on the trek to the falls. There is no point in hiding in my room. If a walk to the beach is so refreshening, I can only imagine how wonderful the walk through the forest would be.I walk through a dense passage of trees. That’s when I hear a shuffling of leaves behind me. The hair on the back of my neck rises. Is someone following me? This is a private property. It’s highly unlikely that some intruder has made his way inside. The thought doesn’t assure me. I fasten my pace so I am not obscured by trees anymore. I hear heavy footsteps to match mine. Someone grabs me from behind and pulls me into the trees.“Where do you think you are going?“ He growls.I shriek.He presses his palm on my mouth to smother my voice and says, ”It’s me!”“Caleb?” I say as he pulls his hand away.I blink and try to make out his fa

49. BodyGuard>Sophia asks me for my address so she can send a cab out for me. I am not that stupid. So I tell her I will reach Newport beach. Her ride or whatever can pick me up from there.After talking to her, I call Isha and she picks up at the first ring.“Hello” she says in a groggy voice.“Were you asleep?” I ask while grabbing a luggage bag to pack.“Yes boss,” she sighs. “What happened?”“Sorry to bother you again. Did you ask the Bodyguard to collect that phone I told you about?”“Yes… he is probably already at the resort.”That was quick.“Is he the same guy that was assigned at the hospital?”Isha goes quiet, then says, “I don’t know, Miles. I assigned the one Liam told me about.”I pause. Is she talking to Liam? I didn’t know that. I thought they would avoid each other forever. That’s good though.“What’s his name?”“His name is Raylan Garcia.”I nod. “Send me his number.”I explain some points that I need her to take care of while I am gone. She sounds unha
