A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 120
120As I walked up to the towering new building, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. After months of negotiations and paperwork, I had finally secured it for the casino that Eduardo and I were trying to run. The structure loomed over me, its sleek exterior glimmering in the bright sun. It was the first concrete step I had take toward my plan. I could finally feel it going somewhere.I couldn't wait to tell Eduardo the good news. As I stepped into the elevator, I took a deep breath, trying to contain my excitement. I pressed the button for the top floor, where Eduardo's office was located.When the elevator doors slid open, Eduardo was already waiting for me. He had a big smile on his face, and I knew he could sense my enthusiasm."Nathan!" he exclaimed, giving me a firm handshake. "Tell me, how did it go?""It went great," I said, beaming with a smile. "I was able to secure the building for our casino."Eduardo's face lit up. "That's fantastic news, Nathan," he said, clapping m

121It was impossible to escape Nathan in this city, and that fact nagged at me every second of every day.I couldn't stop thinking about him. I couldn't stop doubting and second guessing my decision in the back seat of my car that rainy day. I felt like I had made a big mistake by refusing him, I felt like it was too hasty.I had seen him the previous week, in a party Eduardo had insisted I attended represent him. He was surrounded by journalists, trying to get their five seconds of fame with the Golden Boy. He was as charming and as witty as I remembered him, smiling good naturedly as he answered all their questions. I stood back in the distance, watching it a unfold, quietly fingering the necklace he gifted me on my neck. Shaking my head to clear it, I sought out Addison for advice. She was in the living room, a bowl of popcorn on her lap, watching one of those crime documentaries she seemed to love so much."Addison, I can't seem to get Nathan out of my head," I announced sitting

122"Fine," he said at last. "Okay, on your terms." I let out another sigh of relief, that was close."Good, it should be secret. No public meetings, no pictures, no press.""Why?" He asked. "You want to keep our daughter hidden from the public? Why?""Because I don't want her getting pushed into the public eye just yet Nathan," I said rolling my eyes. "What do you think would happen when the world finds out you and I, two high profile people, had a baby together huh? It's not safe for her."He kept quiet for a minute. "Oh.""Exactly, " I pressed. "So no public appearances for now please.""I see, I can take her to the park though?""Yes, sure." I answered. "When?""In about an hour.""Isn't that too sudden?" I didn't know if it was okay yet. Addison popped in, mouthing to me that she had an appointment to meet and she had to leave immediately, I gave her a thumbs up as Nathan continued."I have missed the first two years of her life." He replied quickly. "I intend to spend as much ti

CHAPTER 123 NATHAN’S POV “Don’t you understand, I am worried about you.” Cameron said and I slightly chuckled. “You shouldn’t be,” I retorted with a shrug. I perfectly understood her concern but she didn’t know all my plans, I had set up all my plans and was sure it was going to be perfect. Planning everything wasn’t easy, I took my time and now, I am very sure of it. “Is there anything you aren’t telling me?” She asked, raising her eyebrow slightly. “I fear that you know me too well,” I started saying with a smile. “I had secured everything before now,” I started explaining to her while rising on my feet. Taking slow paces, I remembered everything vividly. “Before Chloe departed for North Caroline, we had several discussions. I wanted to settle everything with her but I am not sure she was ready tho. I gave her a parting necklace.” I said while pausing to look at her expression. I liked the suspense, Cameron’a face held a lot of emotions with confusion among t

CHAPTER 124 NATHAN’S POV Heading back home, I had to wait for a while before going over to visit them. It wasn’t an easy thing to stay away from the scanning eyes of the paparazzi. Not wanting my daughter to be in an awkward spotlight, I had settled to going over to meet them at a specific time in the night. It was quite dark then and only a few moved around, especially in North Carolina. Grabbing my car keys as it was time to go, I got into the car while tucking the teddy bear right into the back seat. Driving speedily, my heart raced anxiously. “What the fuck is wrong with me?” I asked my self angrily. I sure couldn’t deny the emotions brewing in me, I still have something for her. I knew that going to her home felt like home to myself. It was hard to let go of her, I had to restrain myself from going overboard just to let her stay, not wanting to sound desperate or any of that sort. I also needed time to settle my whole plan, my mind still tug me about
A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 125
CHAPTER 125 CHLOE’S POV Hissing angrily immediately Nathan left, I turned to face Addison who was glaring hard at me. “What?” I asked in a more annoying tone than questioning tone. I hated all of this, why was she treating me like a kid. I wasn’t a kid anymore, I knew perfectly what I wanted and what I didn’t. Knowing well about how determined I was, I wasn’t going to allow a guy to ruin that for me. “Are you serious right now?” Addison asked with a scoff and I remained silent trying to control the anger that was brewing in me. “Just answer me, did I see wrong?” She asked again like a mother reprimanding her child and I only took the juice he had poured which was laying on the counter. The juice had been staring at me and I had to take a sip. “You know I hate the silent treatment.” She said again but I only watched her getting more angry as time passed by. “What the fuck is wrong with you?” I asked her with a glare. “What do you mean, are you planning to go back to

CHAPTER 126 CHLOE’S POV “I am on my way already!” I shouted over the phone. This was the hundredth time Eduardo was calling me today, telling me to make it snappy. “So silly,” I murmured as I got into my car. Struggling with my heels and bag, I groaned angrily as I tried getting things together properly. Waking up this morning with a loud buzz coming from my phone, I woke up to see that it was from Eduardo. “I am so sorry, I was asleep.” I managed to say and I muffled my yawns with my duvet. “They are auctioning a piece of land and I need you to be there too for the piece of land,” he ordered through the phone, feeling confused about the whole thing. I asked a few questions. “I am still trying to wrap my head around all of this, can I get more details?” I asked but Eduardo being the man he was, said other few things that weren’t relating to what he knew I was curious about. “You are getting that land for something higher than eight million dollars, it should be
A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 127
CHAPTER 127 NATHAN’S POV Typing furiously on my laptop, I tried to find out some information about Eduardo. “He is just too secretive,” I murmured under my breath as I was getting frustrated from not finding anything from him. He had so many connections, knowing that it was going to be a difficult task to catch him red-handed, I tried thinking of possible solutions. Deep into my thoughts already as I tried to think about a perfect solution to my problems, my phone buzzing on the table made me jolt back into consciousness. “Who is this?” I questioned as I picked the phone up. Seeing it was Cameron, I smiled as I knew he had got the land. “Hey bro,” I said casually with a beam on my face. “Nothing is fine, I couldn’t get the land,” Cameron said over the phone and I could notice his anger. Feeling disappointed but knowing Cameron wasn’t like that, I had so many questions. Sitting up in a more serious position, I tried to think about how this has happened. “I

220Chloe"Dada!" Adele's screams echoed through the air as Nathan swung her all over the place. I smiled at the sight. Her giggles were contagious. I watched through the window. Watched him spin her around, laughing his head off with her and for a minute I allowed myself to get lost in the moment with them. This was the life I had wanted all along. A happy home, a happy place, a perfect family. My eyes fell on my trembling hands and I retreated, allowing the blinds to fall. Except for the fact that we were the furthest from perfect. It had been three months since the accident. Three months since the truth of... Well everything was exposed. Mahn my life was a fucking rollercoaster. The more I thought about it, the more impressed I was that I had survived it at all. And it seemed it all started from that crazy one night stand. The world, my world, cracked and shook around its edges right from the day that I had met Nathan. If he hadn't gotten me pregnant, I most likely wouldn't hav
A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 219
CHAPTER 219 NATHAN’S POV I headed to the doctor's office to collect discharge papers and a few other documents. Chloe was finally certified to be discharged and I couldn't be as happy as I was now. I was finally getting what I wanted. Signing something on the discharged paper, we started preparing for her departure. When I meant we, I meant Addison and Cameron and it was a very chaotic event. “Stop hissing, it's irritating!” I heard Cameron’s disgusted voice yelling at Addison. “Don’t you dare speak to me,” Addison warned. Feeling very embarrassed, I could see the several burning eyes on the scene happening. They had started with their annoying banter. Couldn't they just get along? I understood that Addison was annoying but Cameron had to behave like a man and stop whining like a child. I was getting angry with their actions and was only trying to cover it up with a smile. Women just loved arguing and that was it for Addison. She wouldn't miss a chance to argue with yo

CHAPTER 218 NATHAN’S POV I got to the hospital parking lot with a smile on my face. Walking into the hospital, I was very excited. Nothing was stopping me from getting her now, both Eduardo and Tristan were rotting in jail and that was all I could ask for. Pushing the don't open, I mentally groaned to see who was there with her. I was about to barge in when something stopped me. Chloe was sitting up while facing Addison and Adele with the widest smile I had ever seen. She was speaking gently and was even laughing. It felt like ages since I have seen that bright smile on her face, Chloe was the most beautiful person I had ever seen. She was always smiling and helping everyone regardless of her problems. She had a heart of gold and was always reaching out to others, losing her would be the biggest mistake I would make if I allowed it. I had already lost my loved ones once, I wasn’t going to allow this one again. Not again, she was mine alone! Seeing this just made m

CHAPTER 217 NATHAN’S POV I walked casually with Cameron beside me as we met with Officer Alex. “Good morning,” we exchanged pleasantries as he welcomed us into his office. We couldn't interrogate Eduardo a day before because he had been taken to hospital because of some minor injuries. “Are you ready?” Alex asked as we walked to meet Eduardo. “Never been this ready, I had been ready for this my whole life,” I added as I put on a forced smile. Wishing that Chloe was here to witness this, my mind drifted to her. I was going to make sure I call the nurse after this. I was also worried about her safety and had stationed two private guards for her. As far as Eduardo is concerned, he could strike anyone. I was very wary of that man and didn’t want any accident to repeat itself twice. I was never going to allow Eduardo to get to my family again, especially when I was still alive! Even if it means killing him, I would gladly do so without hesitating. He had done more than enoug

A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 215
NATHAN’S POV I walked into the police station with Cameron as he discussed something with them. “You are back again?” I heard a policeman ask. “Yes, I want to reopen the case of Noah Nathan and his family,” I said as the cop went through the file. “A murder case,” I added again as they searched for it before finding it. Going through it, he nods his head. “I assume you have several pieces of evidence now?” He asked as I nodded my head. He invited me into his office and I started discussing everything with him. “That’s fine, let me arrange for an arrest,” he said before calling a junior officer. Everything was finally falling in place, I was going to get my revenge and also get my girl back. Eduardo shouldn't have played those silly games and thought I wouldn't get him. Though it was difficult, he shouldn't have messed with me. I was going to teach both him and Tristan a very good lesson. “Arrange for an arrest, Mr. Tristan, owner of….” I heard the cop saying b

NATHAN’S POV “Focus man!” I heard Cameron’s frustrated voice as I failed to carry the heavy weight for the fifth time. “I am not in the mood for this shit!” I said angrily before walking away. Not knowing why I was angry, I tried calming down my nerves. Cam was just trying to help, I shouldn't have snapped at him in that way. Everything was only because of her, it's been days since I last visited Chloe. Calling the nurse to ask if she was doing fine. I understood if Chloe wanted space and that was what I was giving her but it wasn't easy for me. My heart yearns for her presence. I was slowly going crazy with everything that has been happening lately. Every thought was connected to her, now that I knew she was innocent of everything I feel so stupid for even doubting her. She was the mother of my child and the least I could do was trust her but I had failed woefully. I had one job to do, to trust and love her but I had failed. Remembering how I had spoken to her that night
A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 213
NATHAN’S POV I groaned as I went to the kitchen to search for something to eat. My mind wandered off to Chloe. “I am sure she will be fine,” I said to myself as I grabbed some cookies and a glass of juice. Walking to my office, I settled down and started some serious work. I was planning an event for models, actors and everyone in the entertainment sector so it had to be perfect. I started my work and didn’t know that time had passed, I was so buried in my work that I hadn’t noticed. Time flies as they always say, you wouldn’t believe it till you start experiencing it yourself. I went down the memory lane of how everything started. My meeting with Chloe, our relationship, everything was just so fast and now we were here. Judging by Chloe’s action I don’t think she can forgive me. I have been trying to deny that for a long time but it is getting obvious daily. She doesn’t say much and would rather ignore me. Sighing heavily, I rubbed my temples anxiously. Her being with

NATHAN’S POV “I don’t still support you buying her these flowers,” Cameron argued as we walked into the hospital. “Ohh please, Chloe is my wife and I know what she wants,” I announced angrily. “Technically, she isn't, you are only trying to win her over,” Cameron said with sarcasm. I wanted to strangle him, when you are friends with someone like Cam he does everything to annoy you. Facing him, I gave him a hard glare before storming out of his sight. “Wait, I am sorry,” I heard him say but rather chose to ignore. “I need to use the restroom,” he said but I still ignored him. “Dickhead!” I cursed before entering the hospital room. Looking bewildered, I couldn’t believe the person I was also seeing. Someone who despised me with her whole heart. “Hey Addison,” I greeted with a crooked smile as she scowled at me. Addison was always with a scowl, I wondered how Chloe was friends with her. Chloe was always happy while Addison was always the opposite. So uptight and annoying! Breathi
