Chapter: Deeply scarredLEVI BANKS Right before my very eyes, Sophia ran off to her room and I couldn't even stop her. Echoes of all I said began ringing in my ears and I folded my fists, releasing the sigh I didn't even know I was holding.“You shouldn't have said that, Levi,” I thought, still breathing heavily.Jace's call came in again and I didn't even know why and how my stiff hands swiped green. “Calmed down yet? I have something to tell you”Most of our phone conversations began without the usual ‘Hello' and that was even now a habit.“Levi?..” his voice came around again when I said nothing.“I just insulted her.. and now she hates me” I said, staring into space and seeming lost.I heard him sigh. “Don't you think this is turning into desperation?” he inquired.“What?” I questioned back as one of the maids came around to pack the shattered pieces of glass.“Your aim to get the presid

Chapter: ShatteredLEVI BANKS Thursdays are Jace's free days and getting to the balcony, I decided to try if I could reach him by dialing his number.I just felt like it wasn't right to take steps without informing him first solely because he was my best friend, partner in this contract marriage situation and main adviser.Luckily, he answered the call and his manly voice came on immediately.“Missing me already?” I scoffed. “Stop being dramatic, what is there to miss about you?” I smirked.“I'll just end the call” he muttered and I chuckled.“Come on man, there's a lot to discuss, be serious” “Really? About your wife?” he predicted and like we were having a physical dialogue, I nodded.“Jace, I've been forcing Sophia to have an abortion” I admitted.“What?!” “She's pregnant?" He exclaimed again.“Yes, for Ethan” I clenched my fists as I spoke.“What?! That blo

Chapter: Uncomforting personality SOPHIA LANGFORD Jessica's question shocked me to the core and I couldn't help but have my eyes widened. How the hell did she know?.. Well yeah, I knew she could suspect or even get to know that I was the one who Levi ordered the pills for but knowing it's Ethan….? I never predicted!! What I kept thinking she was going to assume was that the pregnancy came as a result of an intimacy I had with Levi which we now plan on aborting because of our connection status – the contract. Wait, that was actually a dumb thought right?.. How could I assume she'll think like that when she clearly knows about Levi's pressing need for a child?.,. “Yeah, I found out somehow” she shrugged like it wasn't a big deal and I gave her a ‘Really?!!’ look with my big eyes glaring somehow… Was it me or just my emotions?.. I just felt so uncomfortable with her being too close to Levi so much that she could get to kno

Chapter: The question SOPHIA LANGFORD I was surprised to realise that Levi didn't go to work.. I mean, I heard no sounds of his car, not heard his commanding voice from outside and that only meant one thing – he didn't go anywhere. And since I was in my room, I had no idea what he was doing. A knock on my room door woke me from the short nap I decided to take after my conversation with Ellen and my munching on the plate of pasta the maids brought. “Uhm..?” I groaned from where I laid, wondering why my sleep was being interrupted. It was just 12pm and not lunchtime so it was definitely not the maids. The knock came around again but this time, it was with a voice. “Babe..” My eyes flung open immediately and expanded a bit. That was Levi!!!,.. While I felt pleased that he finally came around to check on me, I also felt quite surprised at his term of endearment. In a situation like this?.. and

Chapter: Tough timesSOPHIA LANGFORD “Ma’am?!” That sharp call snapped me out of my imagination and I jolted back to reality within a second. But everything suddenly seemed completely different. There was no sense of Levi's strong cologne anywhere anymore and his lips were no longer caged around mine. His arms weren't even around my waist anymore!.. It felt like he had faded into the thin air.. just now. No.. It can't be what I'm thinking right?.. The conversation and kiss I had with Levi just now wasn't an imagination right?.. That kiss wasn't imagined huh!!!! “Are you okay ma'am?” My stunned self landed it's gaze on the butler standing right infront of me and my eyes slowly widened more.. I actually bumped into him and started my imagination from there! Damn, that looked so real! “What do we call this too? A way to save someone from being thrown to juven

Chapter: Lingering emotionsSOPHIA LANGFORD I really didn't leave my room throughout yesterday since I went in tears and I believe Levi wasn't bothered because he never came around to say anything or plant even a knock on my door to check how I was doing. Last night was a hurtful one. I literally cried for most of the night's hours, regretting my actions of laying with Ethan over and over again. There was no one to confide in except, my best friend, Ellen, but unfortunately, she wasn't online and even when I called, her line wasn't going through… “I need to take water" I thought, getting up from the bed and taking a swift glance at my very little baby bump which was exposed since I was just wearing a crop top. I'd actually changed into it last night because I suddenly got tired of my pyjamas.. Oh, I forgot I was pregnant. Yeah.. the nasty hormones that come with pregnancy. My eyes swiftly landed on the wall clock and I sighed, rememb
