All Chapters of His Curvy Secretary, His Ruin: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

NATHAN POV I was still on the phone with Kiki when I heard the panic in her voice. I had reassured but she said nothing in return. Then the call suddenly ended. I tried calling her back but the receiver the automated voice prompt kept saying the user was busy. I dropped my phone on the dashboard. Humming quietly to the song playing from the radio. After a few seconds or so, Kiki began to call me again. I answered immediately. “What happened to your phone?” I asked softly. “I received a text from Jordan. It was a photograph of him in front of Harry’s law firm—he said he is there to tell Harry about us.” Shit, I didn’t want my best friend to find out like that. I immediately took a left turn, driving as fast as I could to Harry’s office. I was so distracted that I had ran a red light for the first time in my life. Another driver hoked but I barely noticed. What has Jordan told Harry? Has Harry believed him? Shit. Shit. I should have just come clean to by bes

NATHAN POV I leaned back in my chair, watching my father flip through the documents on my desk. I had expected him to discuss business with me, but so far, he hadn’t said anything about why he and Mom had decided to visit. “What’s going on with you and Fiona?” he suddenly asked. I raised my eyes. “What about her?” My father dropped the documents on the desk. “Don’t play dumb with me, Nathan.” I sighed. “There’s nothing going on.” “Really?” He raised his eyebrow. “Yes, Dad.” I replied, clearly not interested in having the conversation. “Then why have you been avoiding her?” He asked I reached for my glass of water. “As you can see, I have been busy.” “Busy?” He asked again. I took a sip. “Running a company, Dad. You should know how that works.” He didn’t find my response funny. “She’s told me she had been calling your phone and you haven’t been answering. She even came to the house last weekend, but you made sure you weren’t around.” I placed the glass down

NATHAN POV The whole floor was clapping. Fiona and my father were smiling for the cameras. I had found out about the whole arrangement in the main lobby only fifteen minutes ago. A fucking public show to announce the wedding. My father had made it clear that not showing would up have consequences. That was reason why the venue was in the company’s lobby so I had no other choice but to be there because everything had already been put in place. All I had to do was show up, smile and pretend. The cameras were pointed at me and the employees were waiting for my reaction as I got on the stage with Fiona. “Congratulations, Mr Nathan and Miss Fiona!” someone from the crowd shouted. Fiona tightened her grip on my hand. “You have to smile, Nathan,” she whispered and I forced myself. “Thank you on behalf of my fiancé and me,” she announced to the crowd. Fiona started her speech about our upcoming wedding. I wanted to walk off the stage but that would only create a bigger proble

NATHAN POV“Pink means stop, Nathan.”I gulped down my fifth glass of the evening, Kiki’s voice echoing in my mind.So life could really be unpredictable. Years at Stanford studying economics had trained me to predict numbers and how to run a business. But not only was my business going bankrupt, it was also at the mercy of the Sherlocks.Years of hating my parents’ marriage had made me believe I was incapable of loving a woman. I swear I hadn’t seen Kiki Oliver coming. I hadn’t expected her to make me feel things that I shouldn’t.I gulped down the eighth glass. I should have been at the club, but for weeks, being with Kiki had made going to the club seem pointless.On my desk were copies of the Sherlock contract, scattered everywhere.I had gone through them over and over again. I needed to find something that could get me out of the marriage with Fiona, but nothing.There had to be fucking something.“Fuck!” I picked up my glass and threw it against the wall. It shattered into piec

KIKI POV “Shit. Kiki your eyes are swollen. Why are you crying?” Harry eyes fixed on. I swallowed hard. Hell, I couldn’t tell him it was because of Nathan. “It’s Jordan…” The lie tasted like ash in my mouth. “That son of a bitch,” my brother cursed. “What did he do to you?” “We… we broke up,” I sobbed, cleaning my tears. “That is great news, Kiki.” My brother brushed his hand against mine, trying to comfort me. “I know you never liked Jordan, but… I should have listened to you. He cheated on me.” I cried harder despite the fact it was old hurt, one I had moved past months ago. “So Jordan cheated?” I watched my brother clench his teeth. “No wonder he came to my office saying lies about you and Nathan. Now that you two are not together, you can meet other cool guys.” My brother’s lips kicked up. I tried to smile too, but all I managed was a nod. “I am glad Nathan is getting married. At least I don’t have to worry that what Jordan said was true.” Harry’s words hurt
