99 Days With Her Perfect Enemy CHAPTER 22
Astonishing, was an understatement to what she looked like that night. Zoey slowly walked towards where he stood, maintaining a smile that could make any man fall to their knees that moment.Her dress was so mesmerizing. Her face was so pretty. She was perfect!She stopped before him and when she saw how quiet he was and just staring at her, the smile faded and was replaced with questions. "What is it? Am I not looking good enough?" she asked and began to scrutinize the black gown she wore. It was the gown he bought for her.She then clicked her teeth. "I told Carissa not to do too much," she muttered and looked back at him."I can go get my face done again if it is too much."Isaiah looked away and sighed. He just got swayed by her beauty. He cleared his throat and looked back at her. "I never asked for that. You are late. I told you to get here thirty minutes ago.""I apologize. Took so long to get me dressed up. Needed to look good because of the guests that would be attending.""

Isaiah's gaze fell on Zoey's face and seeing her reaction gave him the satisfaction he wanted so he went on. "The lady I came in with is my fiancee, as we are set to get married soon." He dropped the bomb and that made Zoey's heart drop down to her stomach because she wasn't expecting the news.She wasn't expecting the sudden marriage announcement. He shouldn't be announcing their marriage, that would only make things worse.She wanted to scream at him from where she stood, but that would be embarrassing to her and of course, people were there and that wouldn't be the right thing to do at all."She has brought meaning to my life since we started dating and now, we are about to profess our love forever to each other." he continued.The spotlight came on her and the cameras were made to face her. Zoey felt her leg wiggle, as she tried to avoid the gaze of the people around but there was nothing she could do. No matter where she turned, people were staring.Isaiah went on with his speech

Zoey struggled to get out of his hold but he gripped her tightly, leaving no room for her to escape.The others were also trying to touch her.There was no one to call for help. She was so angry at Isaiah and also lost in thought that she went down that quiet and lonely road, now, her life was in danger.Her mind went to Isaiah and she couldn't help but wrinkled her nose. It was all his fault. If anything happens to her then her blood would be on his head."Please I need to leave, I have nothing to offer you guys." She tried to plead but that made them laugh at her mockingly. She could perceive their alcoholic breath but it wasn't her concern at that moment."Not so fast sweetheart. You are going nowhere. You do have something to offer.""How about we have some fun together tonight?" Another asked.Tears flowed down her eyes as they pushed her to the ground and surrounded her fully aware of what they had in mind.The one who was the leader slowly unzipped his trouser and gave a signa

Asher walked to him and hugged him tightly. It's been years since he last saw his brother and he just couldn't control his emotion even with a patient staring at them.Zoey was still in a daze trying to know where she knew Asher from and how it so happened that his brother saved her and brought her to the same hospital he works at. What a coincidence!After having all his emotions pulled out, Asher pulled away and smiled at his brother who had a straight face and didn't seem happy to see him."Where have you been all these years? I have missed you so much you know.""Aren't you supposed to look at your patient first?"That was when Asher realized he had a patient unattended to and she was Zoey Hall. He quickly went to her and lowered his head."I apologize for what just happened.""No you shouldn't. He is your brother.""But why are you here alone? What about Isaiah?""Mr Alcatraz? You do know him?"Asher narrowed his brows as he stared at her. From the looks of it, something must hav

Austin smirked and shook his head, "Am I now answerable to you? I don't think you need to know the reason why I am here." he answered, earning a glare from Isaiah."You haven't changed a bit, have you?" Isaiah asked Austin.He shook his head. "No, and I am never going to change," he took his gaze back to Zoey. "How are you feeling now?" This time, there was warmth in his voice as he asked. He was suddenly a nice person. "Isaiah hasn't been the nicest person right? He deserves whatever you decide to do to him." Zoey smiled at him and looked at Isaiah who had a frown on his face. Isaiah deserves to be punched by her after the insults he gave her, but would that change anything or take back the insults? Her decision will probably change everything.The rest of the day went by with Isaiah saying nothing else to her as they were being distracted by Austin who seemed to be purposely not giving them any space to talk.It was finally night and she was left alone.She lay on the bed with her e

Carissa had many questions running through her head at that moment but seeing the state of Zoey, she preferred to keep shut and not cause more heartbreak.She hugged her tightly and rubbed her back gently, trying to give her the comfort she needed.The two stayed that way for a while before they went back to the house. Carissa quickly gave her some water to calm her down a bit and when she noticed Zoey was a bit calm, she started with her questions."So..... What's going on?""I am not pushing through with the deal anymore. I can't handle it." Zoey said."Why? What happened? And why are you wearing this?""During the party, Isaiah suddenly started accusing me of something big," she sniffed and went on. "At first, I wasn't going to put my mind to it but he went on calling me a gold-digger, a whore," she felt a lump in her throat as she said that. The feeling in her heart was bitter as she thought of what happened at the dinner party.She went on, "He said I am only on this deal because

Zoey's mouth was left open as she stared at the very familiar man before her. "You......" she muttered when she was finally able to say a word.Austin's smile widened as he walked to them. "Surprised to see me again? Don't worry, I mean no harm and was just around."Carissa leaned to her, "And who is this?""The man who helped me to the hospital after I was attacked by those guys."Carissa's smile widened as she extended her hand to him. "Thank you so much. You don't know what you have done. You rescued my friend and I am so grateful for that."He shook her back. "Well, I had to do that. That is part of my job as a good citizen." He replied with a smile which made her look away cause her face turned pink.He faced Zoey, "Are you better now? Heard what happened. You shouldn't have left the hospital without getting treated.""Don't worry about me, I am fine now," she answered.At least the young man cared about her, unlike Isaiah who decided to get her mad.She sucked her teeth and looke

Zoey grumpily sat down and crossed her arms underneath her chest, avoiding his eyes. "What do you want? I know you have a mission because you have a big, comfortable house to live in rather than this small house." Zoey spoke outHe smirked. "A mission? You think I am here for a mission?"She nodded. "Why else would you be here?"He let out a small laugh and sank to the couch. "Anyway, this is my house and I got it for this reason," he paused for some seconds and went on, "I can decide to come here anytime I want to. I don't have to have a mission or reason."Zoey adjusted on the seat and pressed forward a bit. "I know this house belongs to you now, but you should have informed us about this and besides, we are still living here. I mean, this house doesn't suit you for goodness sake.""I don't need to inform you about coming here. Don't worry about whether the house suits me or not, I will change the decorations and make it my taste.""What? You can't just change the decorations. They a

Immediately she walked into the room, and Isaiah's eyes fell on her face. He stared for a long time trying to observe her features.Her face was pale, her eyes a bit reddened and her lips lost a bit of their color.Zoey forced a smile and walked in fully, closing the door behind her. She was getting scared of the way he stared cause he might have noticed she was weak.She walked closer and stood beside his bed. "Are.....are you...... feeling better." Her voice came out croaky to which she cleared her throat but it didn't do much good."I am. What about you?" He questioned with his brows knitted together.She widened her fake smile and raised her two hands waving it in the air. "I am fine. See." An instant regret filled her mind as what she did made her dizzy again.She hissed silently and closed her eyes. Observing what was going on with her, Isaiah tapped on the bed."Hurry up and sit down."She managed to sit and rubbed her forehead. "Sorry about that.""You don't have to. Those men

After what seemed like forever, Zoey felt no pain or stab in her body. Or was she dead already?She heard a low groan so close to her. So close that it made her heart ache. Slowly opening her eyes her breath seized when she saw that it was what she was thinking.Isaiah was in front of her, holding her tightly and his face was covered with sweat and pain. She knew what had happened but didn't know how it happened.She should be the one stabbed but how was he quick enough to have switched position with her and blocked her from getting the hit?"Isaiah!" She called, with her voice low and her whole body shaken.She gently laid him down and made his head rest on her thigh. "Oh my goodness!" she gasped seeing the amount of blood gushing out of his body."No, no, no," she cried and attempted to apply pressure on his side where he was stabbed.Akin, seeing what he had done, took a few steps back in fright. He just stabbed one of the prominent men in the society. He was in big trouble and he

Silence reigned in the large room for what seemed like forever even though it was just for some minutes. Zoey took her gaze to Isaiah in fright of what he would do next because he'd been caught. Surprisingly to her, he was staring back at the men fearlessly and not moved that he was in danger."Well...... Seems like we have a guest." Akin's voice broke the silence. He lifted the corners of his lips and crossed his arms. "Unfortunately, we don't let go of our guests so you will have to stay here now."Mr Clinton, the client, snapped his fingers and drew closer to Akin. "This is Isaiah Alcatraz. I thought he looked familiar and now I remember." His voice was filled with wonder and his gaze was focused on Isaiah."Well then, an introduction has been made so let her go and end all these?" Isaiah's voice was distant and cold as he stared back at them."You are one of the richest people on the continent." Akin informed even though they all knew, and laughed, "How would I let go of this opp

"Hey, you!" It was Akin, the man who rescued her earlier. Zoey breathed in relief and swallowed the bile that had gathered in her throat.She thought her life was over for a few minutes but luckily for her, he was the one who came to rescue her."Let's get out of here before they come back." He looked behind him to see if any of his siblings were coming back but they were far gone.He stretched his hand to her and she took it immediately without thinking. He was her savior anyway.He helped her get up and together, they began to run with him tugging behind her quietly. After running for some distance, he stopped and bent a bit, resting his hand on his knees. "That's enough now. We are far away from them."Zoey stopped too, panting heavily. She looked behind her and noticed they had run some distance.She calmed down a bit and swallowed hard but her nervousness was still there cause she knew she was still in their territory even though she didn't know where they were at the moment.Ak

She breathed out and said the words, "I will not be your girlfriend. I can't stand your insults and accusations when my reputation is on the line," She paused and went on, "As I said, I will clarify everything that happened to the public. You don't have to take the blame for it. I will find a new place so give me two weeks to. I will leave your house," she said to him and waited for him to say something but he was silent, still back facing her.After what seemed like forever, she turned to leave but stopped when he responded. "Do as you wish but just know, there are consequences to this if I lose those properties." He rolled his fist into a ball. "Those properties are important to me." His voice was almost like a whisper and Zoey felt terrible, but, he insulted her and her reputation was important to her.She sighed and went back to her room.Immediately Isaiah locked his door, he punched it in annoyance. He needed to live and her leaving won't make it possible.He sacrificed his comf

Zoey was startled and lost her voice immediately. She wanted to tell him about the drugs that Archer prescribed, but he just had to tell her off by yelling.He pushed the door open and yelled out, "For the second time, what do............" He paused when he saw how she looked at him.For a moment, he couldn't talk cause he was overwhelmed by guilt.He looked away and cleared his throat, "Do you want something?" This time, he asked in a calm voice.Zoey shook her head and looked down. "You will need some painkillers for your head cut. I must have barged in at the wrong time and I apologize for that." She responded and walked away immediately.Does he have to yell without finding out why she was there?Isaiah grunted and walked out of the room. He went after Zoey and caught her halfway, holding her wrist firmly."Listen, I apologize for yelling at you. Got a lot going on before you walked in." He explained in a rush while she forced a smile and nodded."You don't have to apologize to me
99 Days With Her Perfect Enemy CHAPTER 35
Zoey stood by Isaiah's door, contemplating if to go in or not. She thought over what he said and had come to a decision but deep down, she knew that would mean danger to her.What if it backfires?Well, does she have a choice? She took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door. After waiting for a while with no one answering, she made to leave but the door was suddenly pushed open.Coming face to face with him, she flinched and placed her hand on her chest."What do you want?" He demanded, not bothered, that she was sacred a while ago.Zoey dropped her hand and faced him completely but that was a mistake of hers, as her gaze fell on his half naked self.He was shirtless, exposing his muscular, firm, hot self. Staring at him made her speechless. Her throat went dry and for a moment, her memories were wiped off."Hello? Are you gonna keep staring or tell me why you are here? I am about to take a shower and I don't need you delaying me."Realizing how long she had been staring, she lo

"What.....what are you talking about? What do you mean?" She questioned as her heart began to race abnormally. "I am bringing the deal to you this time. Let me be your boyfriend for ninety-nine days," he repeated. No strings attached. Just be dating in public and back to our normal lives on the inside.""Why.....why should..... should I be your...... girlfriend?"“There's a document that I need to get. It's in my late mother's name and if I don't get it, someone who doesn't deserve to even call her name, would and I can't let that happen. I can't let it get to the wrong hands," he tightened his fist as he spoke. "If it does, I will never forgive myself and everything my mother ever worked for will be in vain." He sighed deeply and went on."To get the document, I need to present my fiance," he smirked. "She played a smart one but painfully she never knew she would die early and this request will make it hard to get what she owns."Zoey smacked her lips and narrowed her eyes. "Why nin

Zoey swallowed the lump forming in her throat and looked down. If he calls the police then her life is over. Her career would be affected too.Never in her life did she ever think she would have a criminal record and now, she is about to get one.She quickly went to her knees with her palms joined together."It was a mistake. I never knew you were standing in the way. Besides, you touched my butt. That scared the shit out of me so I acted in self-defense," she spoke out quickly.He found how she explained funny, but he held back his laughter and took his gaze to Carissa instead."You can leave for work now Carissa. I would love to be alone with Zoey."Carissa nodded and glanced at Zoey who also nodded in approval for her to leave. She walked out, leaving the two of them."You should also blame yourself. Why would you touch my butt? I never knew you were a pervert either." She spoke out rather confidently.Isaiah was surprised at her sudden boldness, but he laughed shortly and sat down
