Rayner’s Pov

We were about to enter the car to go to work when Nath realized he had forgotten an important document.

“Get in the car and wait for me, I left some important documents behind,” Nath said as he gave me my bag, which he was carrying.

I collected it from him as I entered the car to wait for him. The driver was in the car, already waiting for us. As soon as Nath entered the house, I seized the opportunity to ask his driver the question that had been on my mind all through the night.

“For how long have you been working with Mr. Blackwood, Max?” I asked him.

Nath had earlier introduced him to me, so I knew his name and still remembered. Max stared at me through the rearview mirror while I stared back as if we were fighting.

“Ma’am, I have been working with Mr. Blackwood for years now, about twelve years if I am not mistaken,” Max said.

Yes, the perfect information I needed and the perfect person to give me the answer to the question I was about to ask.

“I know you have been Mr

    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

    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 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

    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 “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 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“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

    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 PovKen dropped me off at my apartment before he left. As soon as I shut the door, I fell on the floor. My head banged, my eyes hurt but I couldn't find the strength to stop crying.The pain was one I didn't think I would ever go through. Catching Daniel in the act was painful but the one with Nath was more painful even when I didn't see him in bed with Natasha.I cried until I slept off, then woke up and continued. My phone vibrated, and I tried to see who was calling me.I pressed the power button of my phone and the screen lit up. The light from the screen almost blinded my eyes and so I quickly shut my eyes.I opened it gently, opening and closing it immediately till I could finally open it very well. It was Mum who was calling. I was in the mood to talk to her so I gently locked my phone.I managed to stand up from the floor right behind the door where I had cried and fell asleep. I walked to the bathroom, took a cold bath and went to my room.I fell on the bed, putting

    "Miss Rayner, are you okay now?" Ken asked me.Ken had parked the car by the roadside and stepped out. I noticed he stood behind the car while I cried my eyes and heart out.My eyes became heavy, and not only that, it started to ache me, but I didn't stop crying. I asked myself a lot of questions that I couldn't answer.It felt like I had been betrayed. Like I had been used to while away time. I didn't have to think about it much; the lady Nath held was Natasha.The sight of how he held her hands so dearly flashed before my eyes, and that caused me to cry even harder.I was considering stopping when Ken came to the window and asked me if I was okay. I wiped the tears on my face, sniffed, and nodded slowly.Ken turned around and entered the driver's seat. He looked at me for a few seconds before he started the car."Where do you want to go Miss Rayner?" Ken asked.He didn't move the car till I responded. "I want to go back home," I informed him.He nodded and moved the car. The car rem

    Rayner’s PovI lifted the upper part of my body from the bed immediately I woke up and it came with a banging sound on my head. I lay down again and shut my eyes. Perhaps, I got up too early, just right after I woke up.I took in deep breaths as I waited for the headache to relieve me a little so I could do my chores and get out to achieve my goal for the day. A smile broke out from my face as the memories of Nath and I came to my mind.The previous night, I had thought about what it would be like to talk with Nath again. I didn’t know for how long I was lost in thought but I eventually slept off while still thinking. I panicked because I didn’t know what it would be like to be in the same space with Nath again.My greatest fear was how he would react. Would Nath be calm so we could talk calmly or he would be aggressive toward me for wanting to divorce him which led to the accident that almost cost him his life?My thoughts all through the previous night ran wild. A lot of things goin

    Rayner’s PovI entered the department with a bright smile on my face. The first thing on my mind was to record the huge sales I had made and then plan the next day. I felt it would be a long day for me so I needed to plan it.I input my sale on my profile and right before my eyes, my point from from seventy-eight to eighty-five. I blinked severally to be certain I wasn’t seeing the wrong numbers but I saw right. I jumped up and spun taking my time to move my leg as I further danced.Something that looked so impossible was something I was got with so much ease. I thanked Nath in my heart before I moved my chair backward to sit down. As I moved my head, the side of my eyes caught Christy's eyes on me. She looked at me with so much hatred that I could tell if she had the power, she would have killed me.I intentionally lifted my head, looked at her, and then gave her a bright smile revealing my teeth to her. She looked at me from head to toe with her lips tightly closed and then looked a

    Rayner’s Pov“Welcome once again to Cee Enterprises Sir.” I greeted the man who sat opposite me.He beamed with a smile as he grinned from ear to ear, his legs were crossed with one resting on the other while he relaxed his back on the chair. I smartly put away all the business papers with me.It was time to know who the man was and who directed him to me. I also relaxed on the chair as I remembered the lesson Nath had taken me through some time ago. He requested a glass of water and rather than taking his orders, I called someone else to get the water.“So, you are Mrs Blackwood?” He asked as if surprised to see who gets to be called Mrs. Blackwood.I smiled while he also smiled. Because the person who I asked to get us water brought two bottles, I took my time to open mine, and sip from it before I replied to him.“Well, you do not have to be so surprised or do you think I am not worthy of being the wife of Nathaniel Blackwood?” I asked.I was being careful with my words. I didn’t w

    Rayner’s Pov“Another day to face some ugly faces,” I muttered as I opened my eyes.I quickly got dressed and headed to work, the previous day's drama from Henry had made me get to the office late which I didn’t want to happen again.Henry kept calling me all through the night but when I didn’t take his call, he sent a text message that claimed he wanted to apologize for what he did but I didn’t care. He was out of my life and I didn’t want to hear from him anymore.I got to the office before everyone and I was glad I did. It was a good opportunity for me to sort out my files and the clients the delivery team had yet to send their gadgets. I began as soon as I sat down and before the next person entered, I was halfway done.Soon the office became full and everyone was busy. I could see the shock on Christy’s face when she saw me already at the office and even busy. I sent the clients that are yet to receive their gadgets a text. I wanted all my clients to get their good before I would

    Rayner's Pov“You are? Who is the lucky guy?” Ken asked, his eyes glistening as he blinked.He looked like a baby who had seen his favorite food and couldn't help but jump around happily.I bit my lower lip, lost in thought, as I looked for the best way to put it to Ken so he wouldn't misunderstand me. At last, I found a way."The guy from this morning. Nathaniel Blackwood, it was a contract marriage thing which I didn't want to do in the first place but later went for it cause of my job and promotion which did not even go through along the line, I fell for him but we were in a contract marriage so I have to follow the rules.""These few days, I thought my feelings for him were dead, but seeing him today, I knew I still love him." I sunk into the car seat my gaze through the window as my heart aches with worry.Ken bit his fingers, his eyes on the wheel as he thought about something before he turned to me."Do you want to go back to him?" He asked genuinely. His eyes told me he had a

    Rayner’s Pov“Hmmm.” I breathed out, tired and confused.I had just one person I could talk to and that was Ken. Betty was busy with her life and I understood that setting up a family wasn't an easy peasy.“Ken? Can I talk to you? I need your opinion on something.” I said after I had mustered all the courage I had left in me.I barely knew Ken but it felt like I had known him for a long time. I genuinely respected his help and if he didn't look so young, I would have concluded he liked me and just wanted to get close to me.“Yes, Miss Rayner. Always feel free to discuss anything you find disturbing and want to share.” Ken said to me with a smile that revealed his not-too-white teeth.I faked a smile and turned to the window which Ken had earlier let down so a fresh breeze would stamp my face and give me that refreshed breath and look.I took in a deep breath and then breathed out heavily. I was ready to tell Ken what my thoughts were about everything.“Say you have been so unlucky in

    Nathaniel’s Pov“Mr. Blackwood, the cup is filled,” Davis called out to me when I didn’t stop as I filled my cup with tea.My mind was filled with a lot of thoughts, not about the same thing but about different things, but it all linked to one thing: Rayner. I couldn’t stop myself as I thought about our meeting and Why the heavens allowed us to meet.Davis had noticed my mood as soon as I stepped into the office and had refused to leave my sight. It’s good to have staff who have been with you for a long time and are very familiar with your mood.I had volunteered to get my cup filled myself, although Davis requested to help me, but I declined. I looked at the floor and it was a mess. I shut my eyes in regret, but it couldn’t be compared to how overwhelmed I felt.I felt worked up but I couldn’t give a good reason why. The clients I was in so much hurry to meet couldn’t make it, and that made me sad. I would have waited for Max to get done with the car; I wouldn’t have gotten in contac
