100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 22 - Mac Jayson
Nathaniel’s PovI knew Ray was stubborn and even if she did accept to go out with me to see Mac Jayson, she could still change her mind after I had sent the driver to deliver the dress and bring her over.I instructed the driver to put me on call as soon as he got to her house. He did and I was surprised when Ray collected the dress. The driver had wanted to end the call but I told him not to. I want to hear her get into the car while he drives her to me.Soon, I heard her apologize to the driver and then there was a little commotion in the background, then the driver telling someone Ray can’t leave his sight and then the person yelling. I got pissed and I had to call the people who I have instructed to watch Ray and make sure she was okay.I was told the situation and who the lunatic was. I told him that as long as nothing happened to Ray, he was safe. After a while, I was informed Daniel had been taken away as I instructed. I waited for the Ray to arrive in the next few minutes but

Daniel’s PovI opened my eyes slowly but it seemed there were a few particles inside and all I could feel was severe pains in my eyes. But despite that, I forced my eyes open and I realized I was in a place I was in an unfamiliar environment.The last thing I remember was when I held Rayner by the neck and her driver had a gun pointed at me. I knew I behaved harshly but it’s painful watching another man have Rayner and what is more painful is her refusing to speak with me.I managed to raise my body to sit as I was lying down on the floor in a not-so-lit room. I sat up and looked around to observe my environment. The room I was in was dark but there was a fire made in the middle of the room which gave a little illumination.I was in a corner of the room and from where I was, I could see a group of people who were lighting up their cigars from one of the people in their midst. I looked around again, perhaps I could see more and understand what I was doing there.I couldn’t see far and

Rayner’s PovMy life has returned to how it was before Nath came in. After the meeting with Mac Jayson, Nath asked me to go home with him. I did, but I told him I had something else to do.He didn’t argue with me as he only nodded. When we got to his house, the maids were standing outside waiting, their heads bowed to the floor. He held my hands while I followed him from behind.We got inside and that was when I realized the reason he asked me to go with him was because he wanted us to eat lunch together. I didn’t show how happy I was but trust me, I was very happy.I honestly do not have anything to eat when I get home. Eating lunch at his place was the best thing that could happen to me for the day. I did hurry to finish the lunch and after that, he instructed a maid to pack something up for me for dinner.I rolled my eyes when he gave that instruction and when the maid had left, I confronted him. “Why tell your maid to pack me dinner? Dinner is in like six hours from now.” I asked

Rayner’s Pov“You don’t want to explain to him, then it's fine, I will help you to.” Katherine turned to Daniel, “Your girlfriend here is about to get married to…”“Shut up!!!” We all heard someone yell from behind us.”We turned around to see Director Kim walking toward us. He has a plain face and so far working with him, I know that expressionless face. He was not so far from fury.He got to us and grabbed Katherine by the arm, “You should learn to mind your business, Katherine.” Director Kim said.“Director Kim, you always cover up for Ray, is she your sex toy?” Katherine asked.I saw Daniel look at me in disbelief, his mouth left open and his eyes too. I shut my eyes, tears gathering but I have to fight it so it doesn't fall.”Everything you are saying is trash. You should focus on improving your skills and not fighting Rayner rather, try to beg her to teach you.” Director Kim said.My eyes were still shut, my heart in pain but I could still tell what they were doing. Katherine fo

Rayner’s PovJust for me, Nath booked the whole spa. When we entered, everything in the spa was empty. All the spa staff were standing waiting for us to enter, and when we got to the entrance, they welcomed us.“Welcome, Mr. and Mrs Blackwood.” They greeted us.Nath held my hands and we kept walking inside. We got inside and all the staff entered inside too, all behind us. They were all acting extra smart and I wondered if it was because of this man standing beside me.They deployed to their various duties and Nath finally spoke. “I want you to give my woman the best spa experience ever.” He instructed them.“Yes, sir Blackwood.” They all yelled.I was first offered a drink and another brought their menu which consisted of the list of services they offered. I picked my favorite among the body and facial treatments, but after we were done, Nath instructed me to have a hot tub bath, eyelash tinting, and pedicure and manicure.We had spent more time there than I had imagined. All my time

Nathaniel’s PovI expected such a behavior from Aunt Eli although I didn’t voice it out to Ray. She might have changed her mind if I had told her knowing how stubborn she is. Ray’s mood and even facial expression changed immediately.I didn’t tell her about coming to my house even before the wedding. One thing I observed about Rayner is the fact that she takes her self-respect so seriously. She hates it when she is being looked down on and selfishly avoids whatever will make her feel insulted.I know we haven’t stayed together rather have been together for long but it’s something I could easily tell through her behavior. I too, felt sad when Aunt Eli said that but I can’t argue with her.I knew she was doing all of these just to be sure I wasn’t lying to her. I have always told her I won’t get married because I don’t find people from the opposite gender interesting and attractive but she has always fought against it.When I became an adult, she immediately began to disturb me with mar

Rayner’s PovI got home after leaving Nath’s place to meet Betty, who was waiting for me outside my apartment. The driver had dropped me off outside the building, and while I stepped down, a guy with a food package was waiting for me.He handed it to me with the usual words, “From Mr. Blackwood.”I turned to the driver to be sure the food was coming from Nath because I just left his place and he didn’t tell me he was sending someone. I was a bit scared for my life now after hearing Daniel’s threat and Katherine’s threat too.The driver nodded, “It’s from Mr. Blackwood. He forgot to give it to you before you left.” The driver said and then I collected the package. I was already tired, especially after hearing what Aunt Eli said.“Why was she being very annoying?” I muttered while walking to my apartment.The driver was still there, perhaps he got an order from Nath not to leave until I entered inside the building. When I saw Betty standing beside my door, I knew I was going to have a l

Nathaniel’s PovI was having my bath when I heard my phone ring from inside my room. I didn’t have any meetings as I had wanted to rest after having a busy day so I wondered who could be calling.Curiosity got the better part of me and so I had to hurry up with washing up. The caller didn’t stop calling even when he or she didn’t get a response and that again made me hurry up. I came out of the washroom with a towel in my hand and walked over to where I left my phone on the bed.I checked the caller to my surprise, it was Ray who was calling. I kind of smiled but if you ask me, I do not know why I smiled but I did. I answered the call expecting her to speak in her usual way and she didn’t disappoint me, she has never actually.She told me about visiting her Mom which I didn’t argue about because I had thought about asking her but it skipped my mind even when we were together the whole day. I had asked her what her Mom loved but she said we were going to talk about it later.What made

Rayner’s PovI had gotten up before Nath just so I could prepare breakfast and his lunch. I was almost done in the kitchen when he woke up, then I had gone to check on him if he was up.“Hey Nath, are you up now?” I asked him when I saw him sitting down on the bed with his eyes still closed.“Still feeling sleepy and a bit weak.” He replied, his eyes still closed.I walked to him to check his temperature but it was normal for someone just waking up when he opened his eyes, they were red and that scared me a bit.“Or maybe you should just stay at home just for today and rest well, what do you think?” I asked him.“It's a great idea but I can’t do it because an investor in Blue Nath is returning to Diavolo today and he wants to know what has been going on since he has been absent because of his health,” Nath explained.“Okay, how about you come back home as soon as you are done with him? That way, your employees would know you did come before you left, and if these symptoms persist afte

Rayner’s PovI didn’t expect I would be called because why should I I did think of something I wanted my current menstrual tracking app to have and finally, I did.I wanted to stand up to speak because other speakers have done that before but then Nath held my hand and made me sit back. He got closer to me and whispered into my ears.“You are my wife which simply means, you would have been on this seat if I wasn’t here so you should sit down to address everyone,” Nath said.I nodded and then sat well before talking.“Good day everyone,” I greeted. “As regards the question, I love the menstrual tracking am and I currently use the one made by **** and I must say it is very nice but there is a challenge. Not just for this one I use but for the others I have used.”“A major challenge is that the symptoms aspect is limited. They give the symptoms which is not the same for everyone. I believe that is because a survey was carried out with a few ladies and generalized.”“Menstrual symptoms ar

Rayner’s Pov“Thank you for helping me out.” I thanked the male staff when we got into the elevator.I was happy that my plan would still pull through despite the little obstacle I faced earlier all thanks to the staff with me.“It's nothing Mrs. Blackwood and I am sorry I didn't tell you, Mr. Blackwood is in a meeting.” He looked at me, waiting for a response.“It's fine, I can wait for him, thank you for the help,” I said.“Okay,” he replied.We arrived at the floor Nath was having his meeting and to my dismay, right outside the meeting room was Davis on a phone call with someone.Davis ended the call immediately he saw me and walked to me.“Mrs Blackwood, you didn't inform Mr. Blackwood you were coming?” Davis asked.“No. Just want to surprise him.” I said.“Well, you should have informed me so I could have come pick you up from the lobby rather than going through the stress of finding Mr. Blackwood,” Davis said.“At least I did find you both,” I said and we all laughed.I thanked
100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 84 - Mrs Blackwood
Rayner’s PovAgain, I am sorry to ask, did he eat breakfast before leaving the house?” I asked the maid who was in the kitchen with me.She thought about it for a while and then replied. “No Mrs Blackwood. Mr. Blackwood refused to take breakfast and while I tried to insist because Aunt Eli instructed he shouldn’t leave the house without taking breakfast, he said you weren’t there to eat with him so there was no need for him to.” The maid said.I got goosebumps all over my body. Did Nath truly say that to the maid? I regretted not waking up early to prepare something for him since I wouldn’t be going anywhere and I could sleep if I were tired.“Okay, I think I would have to take this food to him myself,” I announced.“That would be a great idea Mrs Blackwood and I am very sure Mr. Blackwood is going to love it.” The maid clapped her hands happily which made me ask her why she was so happy.“Why are you so happy about my decision?” I asked.“Because it will save me from a lot of explana

Rayner’s Pov “Good morning Nath.” I greeted having woken up late. There was no need for me to wake up Walt and get dressed because I wouldn’t be going to the office but I would be working from home. After the doctor's instruction that I rest, Nath called Director Kim and made taken excuse on my behalf and Director Kim didn’t dare to say no even when it didn’t go well with him. “Good morning my love, how was your night?” Night asked. He was dressed up for work already while I was still lying in bed. Wait, did Nath just call me his love? Hahaha, I honestly hope he just said that for fun. “My night was not so great and not so bad either but all the same, I had a wonderful night's rest,” I replied to him. “Huh?!” Nath walked to the bed and sat beside me, “Why wasn’t your night entirely great?” He questioned me, concern all over his face. “Nothing. Just the thought of me not going to work today was disturbing.” I sighed. “I am sorry about that but there is nothing I can do because

Rayner's Pov“I had wanted to tell you after we finished eating but it seems you are not having it which I guess I the reason you came to join me in the Kitchen,” Nath said.I smiled, my teeth showing very well, “Well Mr. Blackwood, I am sorry to say this to your face but you are very wrong with your conclusion. I didn't come to join you in the kitchen because I wanted you to tell me about Natasha. After all, to me, she is not so important.”I continued, “I came to the kitchen to join you because I felt bored especially when I know you are here. Since you have planned on telling me what you want FL to tell me about Natasha after we are done eating, it's fine and I can wait.” I said.“It's too late now,” Nath touched my nose, “I have driven the maids out and I have already told you I was going to talk to you about it, so I will. Remember, I am a man of my word.” Nath pointed out.I raised both hands, “For me, whenever you choose to tell me is fine but so long it's today, I am good.” I

Rayner’s Pov“What do you mean Rayner?” Nath asked me.Without hesitating, I repeated my question, “Who is Natasha,” This time, my tone and voice were a bit low.“Rayner, I think you need to calm down. I can’t tell you who Natasha is while you are in this mood, it will ruin a lot of things, please, just calm down a little.” Nath said and that provoked me even more.Does Nath think I am a fool and that I won’t do my research about Natasha or, was he thinking I am in love with him already and he just doesn’t want to lose me? I wish someone could just tell him to stop dreaming.“Hold on Nath, this Natasha has been calling you for days, and anytime I am with you, you excuse yourself just to go speak with her and if you can’t leave, you simply ignore the call. I will ask you this question for the last time Nath and after this, I won’t ask again…”Nath placed his finger over my lip, “Please hold the last time till we get home. I can’t tell you who she is right here in a public place. Just h
100 Days In A Contract Marriage With Nathaniel Blackwood Chapter 80 - Who is Natasha?
Rayner’s PovI opened my eyes with force as soon as I became conscious and sitting beside me while holding my hand was Nath.“Hey, I am here, you are safe, take a deep breath,” Nath said and I calmed down a bit.“How did I end up here, Nath?” I asked.“I have no idea. I was called by Director Kim that you suddenly lost consciousness and you were being taken to the hospital. After I arrived here, I called him to explain what truly happened and he said he was told you were about to go get water when you suddenly fell.”“He said he wasn’t there when it happened but he was told. Do you remember anything? I asked him to bring out the CCTV recordings from that very moment. He said he was going to get back to me.” Nath explained to me calmly.I felt a sharp pain in my head and then I remembered what truly happened.“Oh, I remember now. I was about to get water because I was always feeling tasty and then there was a sudden blackout. What did the doctor say is wrong?” I asked him.Nath breathe

Rayner’s PovI entered the department and all I could see was everyone on their computer, including Carista. I was a bit late because of Nath’s delay and also there was a little traffic on the way. Was there an activity I wasn’t told about? Because why was everyone busy?I tiptoed to Carista to ask her what was going on. “Carista, what is going on, why is everyone busy this morning?” I asked in a whisper.“I believe you didn’t open your email throughout the weekend. Well, we got so many clients that we don’t know where they came from or rather, we haven’t confirmed where they came from. You should go sit down and get to work immediately because who knows, yours might just be more than mine and that of Director Kim.” Carista advised me.I sighed as I went to my desk to see what I had got on my side. I put on my computer and while I waited for it to finish its refreshing process, I sipped from my water. I felt a slight pain on my head which forced me to close my eyes for a few seconds t
