The Contract Wife (English)
The soon-to-be King, Neil Gabriel J. Rashid-Al, was called by his father King to go home to their country after 7 years of jumping from one country to the other one, but for other reasons he is not ready yet who came back, and because he has a past that he doesn't want to go back to Dubai. And so, to escape his past, he looked for a woman who would agree to be his wife and in an unexpected chance, he saw the maid who was cleaning his house, her name was Wendy, and she was raised impoverished. Meanwhile, Wendy Lee saw her boss for the first time because whenever she came to his house to clean, he was out doing his business. But that day was different and because of circumstances she agreed to be his contract wife even though they didn't know each other very well. Soon, they fly going to Dubai and the Rashid-Al family were all surprised by their news, especially his elder sister who knows everything about him.
The question is...will the soon-to-be King, Neil, take the throne and be willing to be true to himself, or will he hide and stick to his plan? But what will happen if the past meets the future? What side is he going to take?

Chapter: 13- The Plaza“Where are we going? And, what did you say? Tour me around?” I questioned confusingly while I was sitting pretty beside him in the passenger seat, and I didn’t like what he said inside before we left.“Yes, and I know that you are bored already so, I cleared my schedule today to tour you around,” he coolly said, and he looked at me in a second.“Okay,” I mumbled, and I pulled my hand from his as I sat down properly.Quietly, I looked to the window to my right side and I could see a lot of things. I’m amused. There are a lot of people here. This place is really alive. And because Christmas eve is coming, I can see a lot of shining, shimmering decorations around like trees, stars, and lights.“Let’s go down here,” I said not leaving my eyes on the streets.“What? No. I will bring you somewhere else. Not here,” he hastily declined.I saddened because of what he told, and I turned to give him a look. “No, I want here,” I insisted, and I tapped the driver on the shoulder. se stop “Sir, ple

Chapter: 12- Together in one tableI am getting bored here. Why did I come with him here again? I have nothing to do here anyway. Boredom! Oh, right. To remove my boredom, I fished my phone and I chatted my best friend, Diana, while Neil is busy talking to his secretary and to the other guy about business. -How are you? I smiled when I saw that Diana immediately seen my message, which means that she is doing nothing as of now, even she is at her work. She might have no customer so, she had time to answer me. -Here, still alive and kicking. You, how are you there? You okay there? I laughed just reading her reply because I can tell that she is really bored right now. -Are you busy? You want video call? -Yes, please! I’ll call. And she really called me that I quickly answered. “Hi, girl,” I greeted her cheerfully because it’s been a while, even we just talked to each other last night. “Hello. Wait. Where are you? You’re outside?” she questioned when she noticed my background changed. “Yes, I’m outsi

Chapter: 11- Her LecturesSomething is brushing my face and at the same time, someone is on me. So, I opened my eyes and I brushed off the hair that was flying over my face. Then, I looked down at the person who was currently hugging me like a teddy bear, which made me smile because she was sleeping so peacefully like a baby. But my smile vanished when something strikes my heart that I couldn’t explain, which made my left free hand moved since my right was on the back of her head. And, I gently removed the hair that was on her face. And there’s her angelic face. Her face is unique, that I could stare at her all day without getting bored. My heart feels something strange just staring at her, when suddenly my eyes diverted to her lips that I am tempted to kiss. And with that, I recalled everything that happened last night whereas I fell to the bar stool but thankfully, Mr. Charles carried me going to my room. He, then, immediately left, leaving me and my wife alone. Subsequently, she walked me going to the b

He is looking at the nearby house where his only daughter is living with her new husband. A thought came to him so, he fished his phone and he texted. -Your Highness, I would like to inform you that your son married my daughter here in the Philippines. I hope you accept her. I don’t know what to do now. After sending the text, he sighed because he really is clueless right at the moment. He even couldn’t intervene to the two because he saw how they love each other when they visited his house so, who is he to be a barrier to their relationship. He is just hoping now that the royal family would accept his only daughter. Meanwhile, King Noha is resting on his chamber alone when he heard his phone beep for a text message.

Chapter: 9- Wendy with Neil's FamilyI didn’t know, I fell asleep. I opened my eyes when I noticed that my surroundings changed, we are now in the car, and I am surprised to see Neil’s face near mine. Then, I noticed that I am sitting on his lap while we are moving, and his both hands are on me that instantly gives me chills down my spine because I am not used to someone touching me. We stared at each other when I noticed his head moving towards me. Wait, what is he doing? Is he trying to kiss me? I will not allow it to happen again. And so, I moved my head backward, and I quickly covered my lips that he wanted to kiss. But he is determined, he pulled my left wrist while his other hand held my nape in place. In response, I didn’t let him, even though his eyes are begging to me charmingly. What is he, lucky? Not all people will follow to everything he wants. Whatever he is going to say just to get into me, I will not surrender. Maybe his charm will work on other women, but not to me. His charm will not work on m

Chapter: 8- His MessI couldn’t sleep.It’s midnight, the light here in my room is already off, but here I am and still awake. I couldn’t stay still. My mind is still flying, and for some reason my mind keeps repeating the scenarios a while ago whereas I embraced Wendy, the way I kissed her on her forehead gently, and the way she closed her eyes that time. I was tempted to kiss her on her lips, but I didn’t pursue because I was thinking that she might push me so, I just hugged her tight to comfort her that I think worked because she stopped crying. Because to be honest, when I saw her crying while leaving her father’s house even though she’s really not gonna leave, she will just transfer to my custody since we’re already married, made my heart ache. I know that it’s hard for parents to be away from their children whom they nourished and gave life, just like me and my parents, but in my situation, I was the one who part ways with them because I want to know until where my own feet could go. It takes a lot

I just have to put an end to this rivalry," he said with assurance, and he hit the gas more as he was on the way to Mr. Green. "Are you insane? Why would you go directly to him?

Chapter: 39- True happily married coupleGREY'S I never thought that we have the same feelings ever since we met. If I were just a gentleman to her then, she and I would have been a great couple when we were in High school. If I wasn't shy that time, we would have been a perfect couple. And if I didn't let my ego and pride get to me, her and I would get married without forcing her to do things my way. If I just took my chance to her, we wouldn't be here in this situation. To be honest, forcing her to get married to me is hunting me until now. I, then, caressed her head while gazing at her because she's so pretty even though she's sleeping. Don't worry, my love, from now on, I will do everything for you, and for our family that we are going to build. No more egos. No more pride. No more shy. I will fight for you, and our family. And as long as I live, no one will touch you and our children. I love you so much, Katlyn. I never felt this way before. Thank you for giving me one last chance to change for the better. I am re

But, she didn't like it, so, she pushed his chest angrily until their lips parted. "Let me go!" she yelled while crying as she wants to be free from him. But, he didn't let her go and just held her waist tightly while gazing at her with full of affection. They stared at each other, when her eyes produced tears once again that melted his heart. "Tell me, what can I do to make you believe me that Monica and I are just friends?" he queried seriously. "I've seen enough. Let go of me," she replied angrily, and tried to push his chest once again. In counter, he pulled her waist more towards him and never look away from her. He, then, began to lean to reach for her lips one more but, she pulled her head back to avoid him that made his eyebrows collided. He lean forward more but then again, she pulled her head back so, their li
