100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 17 - It's not ending there
Rayner's POVHe was right. The earlier I accept that my status has changed and I am in a contract marriage with the country's richest man, the better I can act and pretend before everyone.True to his words, a car was waiting outside to take me home. The driver honked when I came out, and I went in. It was a quiet drive, giving me the time to reflect on the decision I had made.Everything was happening outside what I had planned. Getting married without becoming the COO to think he was far richer than me.I gritted my teeth, scared of the decision I had made. I wanted to call Mom and tell her about it, but she wouldn't pick up her phone if I was the one calling.I pray I don't regret this decision I have made, but thinking about it right now, what more pain will I feel besides the one I have gone through?He has made my life a living hell, and I won't be surprised if he does worse now that I have accepted his proposal. As Betty advised, I will just get this done and end the marriage w

Rayner's POVI was already worried about what simple dish I could make and have for lunch when the delivery guy called me. I wasn't expecting anything from Nathaniel, but I took it either way. I signed on to the booklet the delivery guy gave to me and went back to my apartment. He sent a text saying he hoped I enjoyed it, addressing me as Mrs. Blackwood. There was no need to respond to his message. I dropped my phone on the couch and sat on the floor. I have no idea of what he sent but I became curious after his text. When I opened the box, I got teary-eyed, and I didn't know when I screamed for good. Inside the box were eight crispy fried chicken pieces with french fries, a BBQ sauce, and a cup of orange juice. How did he know I was hungry? I couldn't be happier, I picked up my phone. I wanted to give him a call to thank him, but I stopped myself. I can't make him think I am happy with it. I will just enjoy myself, he is gradually paying for the pain he cost me, but this is his,

Daniel's POV “I regret ever trusting you, Maci,” I yelled at Maci in frustration after a meeting the company employee had. After that night, I returned to Diavolo, and Rayner caught me banging Maci passionately. I tried to run after her to apologize, but Maci stopped me, I hadn't spoken with Rayner. I tried reaching her the next day, but she blocked my line, even on all social handles. I was deeply sad knowing I had hurt a girl who truly loved me. I would have gone to her place to talk things out with her, but she doesn't stay at home. If she gave me a second chance, I would end things with Maci immediately. That's after I had gotten what I wanted through her. I remember Rayner didn't want to be my girlfriend when I first approached her. I met her at a business seminar where different companies' staff converged to learn new strategies. I got her number from a colleague of hers, and I never told her who it was even when she asked me. After several chases, she accepted to be m

Rayner's POVSaturdays for me are special, I sleep till I feel like waking up without any fear. I woke up earlier, looked around my messy room, and slept back.I was still sleeping, enjoying my peace because that's the only place I enjoy peace when my phone rang. “It's Saturday, who could be calling me.” I groaned.I located my phone with my hand and answered the call to hear the voice of the only man who had made me lose my peace for days.“Mrs. Madavaski, a driver is waiting for you outside your apartment. He has a dress with him, take it from him and put that on. He will bring you to me.” Nathaniel explained.His voice was more calm than usual and I wondered if he was okay. What is my business if he isn't fine, I have a job and that's what I will face although I plan on playing a few revenge games on him.“Yes boss,” I responded intentionally.“Boss? You know what, never mind.” He said, “I am waiting for you.”Was he tired already? For the few days we have spoken with each other, w

Rayner’s POV “That's all, Mr. Allen,” I said, concluding my speech. “That's a catchy offer not to accept miss, I will give the contract to Cee Enterprise,” Mr. Allen said and sipped from the cup of coffee in his hand. “I will take my leave now. Everything will be sent to you through my PA from now,” he made clear before leaving. Cee Enterprise is a gadget production company and I Rayner Carson work in the Business Management Department. I have just concluded a business meeting with this client who wants a lot of computers in his new company and he has agreed to give Cee Enterprise the contract.

Rayner’s POV“Why are there a lot of errors in the contract,” Director Kim slammed the contract I had prepared last night on my desk angrily jolting me back to my surroundings.When he called me last night, he asked me to prepare a contract. He gave the details and despite my broken heart, I tried to draft it.Maci's words, the picture of Daniel riding her from behind, the stranger I bumped into, and how I spoke to him harshly occupied my head while I prepared the contract and even before Director Kim came in.His gaze was cold and I could see disappointment in his eyes. I have never made a mistake not even missing the letter ‘a’ when preparing a contract but now I have made a lot of errors like Director Kim had said.“Are there errors?” I asked to be sure I heard him well.“Yes, Rayner. There are a lot of them, I couldn't finish the first page,” he shouted at me.Director Kim is a nice man but he just hates dirty work, laziness, backwardness, and anything that will slow his work down

Betty had left early after Jeff called her. I got dressed and headed to the venue.I gave Davis a call when I got there. The country club was big and beautiful, and Davis never told me where they would be at exactly. He told me he was coming to pick me up.While I waited for him, my thoughts were running wide, “Am I doing this?” I questioned myself.I saw Davis's handsome face approaching me with a wide smile. He is fine but not compared to his boss. I followed behind him after exchanging pleasantries and we got to the golf course where Mr. Blackwood was playing golf.He gestured on me to come closer which I obeyed even if I didn't want to. He pl
100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 15 - Unholy Position
Director Kim's POVI won't pretend to anyone anymore, and I will stop lying to myself. This contract has done the Business Management Department more harm than good.A lot of things that wouldn't have ever taken place are happening, and to think my favorite worker hates me so much right now.For real, I wish I had never allowed Rayner to go to him when he told me he could only give us the contract if Rayner came to make the offer. I suspected something was wrong, but I was just concerned about what I would get, and I regret it so much now.All the staff think I favor Rayner, but what they don't know is that Rayner paves the way for herself. Who knows what she must have done that made Nathaniel Blackwood notice her?I just wanted to force Rayner into accepting Mr. Blackwood's proposal.

100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 14 - Committed To Rayner
Katherine's POV After what happened today between Director Kim, Rayner, and her client, and the heated argument that followed, I knew I had to do something. Believe me when I say these past few days have been the best days of my working experience at Cee Enterprise. Every time Director Kim tells me to go attend to Rayner's client, my heart always leaps for joy. I kept looking for ways to annoy Rayner just so I could mock her with it, but she has avoided me, and I think everyone as well like a plague. Her shoulders, that has always been high, have suddenly come down. Her ever-smiling face no longer recognizes smiling as an expression. I couldn't be happier about everything. Right now, I don't regret eavesdropping on their conversation and confronting Director Kim, maybe he wouldn't have considered me if I hadn't. I heard Director Kim telling Rayner to do what she was asked to do and I felt jealous. I am also beautiful but why does it have to be Rayner? “She is such a st*pid girl
100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 13 - What if it was a year?
Rayner's POV “What was that for?” I yelled when we entered Director Kim's office. At this point, I was tired of keeping calm and letting go of everything he had done. I didn't care if he was the director anymore. “That client was a big fish, and you let me lose it? For what? For Nathaniel Blackwood?” I roared. “Yes, for Nathaniel Blackwood,” Director Kim retorted. “For a contract, we aren't sure he will give to us? You let me lose one I was sure of?” I snapped, pointing at the door. Director Kim was walking around. I knew he didn't expect that client to walk away just like every other client has stayed back, but he should know people are different. “Rayner, if you had accepted Nathaniel’s proposal, it wouldn't have gotten to this extent. Everything that happened a few minutes ago was your fault and not mine.” He accused me. “Director Kim, my fault? How? I have never lost a client until today, which was caused by you, and you want to blame me?” I bellowed. “Trust me, Rayner, I
100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 12 - Director Kim!!!
Rayner’s POVIt was another weekend, and I hadn't gotten any clients the whole week, but the truth is, I hadn't been searching. Everything was a mess, and I couldn't speak with any client.Director Kim kept asking me if I had gotten any clients, which felt strange to me. I have wiped Nathaniel's marriage contract off my head, just wanted to focus on my job.I was still on the search when a client I had long spoken to and promised to come when he had the time sent a message.I didn't know when I smiled, but I smiled after three days of keeping a straight and gloomy face. I replied to his message while I waited for him. He wasn't buying much, so there was no need for a contract.He finally came in, and I shook off all the sadness inside of me while I approached him.“Good day, Sir,” I greeted happily.“Good day, Miss. I stop by at last.” He said chattily.“Yes, please have your seat, Sir,” I gestured to a seat.“I think I need to see more samples besides the ones you showed me earlier.”
