A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 70
Seventy Nathan"Lily, you ready?" I called from the living room. Why were women so darn slow? I had told her to get ready by seven! I had a long day at work. I had hit the gym with Cameron. My muscles were fucking sore and I was damn tired but I had made a promise to myself the day before to do something with Lily that day. So I couldn't back out. I sat on the sofa, wearing a plain tee and cargo pants. There was no way I would wear a suit again. I was too tired to try. Lily finally stepped out of her room. She wore a short gown that flared from beneath her breasts. I had no idea what the dress was called but I was sure it had a name. Women liked to name dresses. "Ready?" I asked, rising to my feet. "How do I look?" She asked, turning around so I could see her. "Good," I replied and made my way to the door. She had said she wanted to go to the movies. I hadn't gone to the movies in a long fucking time, but since she wanted to, there was no problem. She could have anything she w

Seventy-OneChloe"Della, we've seen all the nannies right?" I asked, pausing the video on the screen. Because I had asked to be involved in choosing a nanny, David recorded a video of the interviews he conducted with all the candidates and sent it to me. Adele and I had just finished watching all of them a third time so that she could remember all their faces. We sat on a sofa in the living room while Addison splashed around in the pool pretending she was some sort of mermaid. "When you guys are done choosing a nanny? Can we get a cook too? I'm tired of eating out and you're never home to cook anymore." Addison whined. "Cook your meals, Addy," I said dryly and turned to Adele with a smile. "Which lady do you want as your nanny, baby?" Adele turned her big brown eyes to the TV screen, her eyes scrutinizing the pictures of the candidates. There were five of them in all and for a second, I thought she would reject them all. She stuck a finger in her mouth, wiggled off the sofa, a

Seventy-Two Nathan"That's it?" Cameron asked, I sighed, leaning in my chair, and rubbed my jaw. Was that all? I was trying to piece all the clues together. Eduardo and theafia supposedly killed my parents and Brother. My brother however had said something else. He had mentioned Chloe. I could hear Cameron sigh through the receiver, "What are the chances that this Chloe person, didn't try to kill your parents and brother?""Zero," I said without giving it a thought. Chloe would never kill anyone. She simply didn't have it in her. And there was no way she would have been in South Carolina all these years and I wouldn't have found her. "Why are you so sure? People change," Cameron muttered. "Not Chloe," I whispered, images of her flooding my head. "God I haven't thought about her in a while. A fucking long while." "She sounds like she got you good," Cameron taunted. "You rarely mention other women aside from Lily," My chest tightened uncomfortably and I sat upright. "It's not a p

Seventy-ThreeNathan"Chloe," She was here again. It was a dream, I knew that. A dream I had not dreamt in months. I missed her. I had shoved and pushed at the gnawing emptiness that only she could fill. I had hidden it for too long and now she was resurfacing as always. Teasing me, taunting me with things I ached for, but could never have. Her fingers caressed my skin in seductive whispers, I laid still on the bed, pulsing with desire. But I was afraid that if I tried to hold her, she would disappear. "Nate," she murmured. "Nath,"I used to love it when she couldn't make up her mind on what to call me. I wanted to tangle my fingers in her hair and draw her on for a kiss. That tart sweet mouth. Lips that spewed fury whenever she was mad but a brewed passion. I wanted to wrap my hands around her waist, gently guiding her as she slid down my cock. But Fuck, if I held her she would disappear. I didn't want her to. I wanted this dream, the haze of unreality to last. I needed her so ba

Seventy-Four Chloe"Five days end today," I groaned as soon as we stepped into the house. David and I had just arrived from meeting with the judge in charge of the case with Tristan.I was so damn tired. I could eat a whole freaking horse. Yes, it does David said as I lowered myself onto a sofa. Our trip seemed successful. Tristan would stand trial come Monday for stealing my parents' company. Soon, everything would all fall into place. Addison wasn't home. She had mentioned meeting up with certain people from college. I suppose she deserves to have some fun. She had been hard at work on my behalf ever since we moved back to South Carolina. "Adele and her nanny aren't home yet," I observed, whipping out my phone to call Melissa. "Hi Miss Montgomery," she muttered melissa was a shy timid woman who rarely spoke up. Sure she had pretty hair, but somehow I felt that Adele would give her a tough time. She was quite an impulsive child who could throw a tantrum Whenever things did bit

Seventy-FiveNathan My shrilling phone woke me out of my sleep. That rarely ever happened. My phone hadn't rung at the midnight in a long fucking time. With a grunt, I reached across the bed to the bedside table so I could pick up my phone. The screen flashed with the name Freckles on it. Cam. Why was he calling so fucking late? It had to be about the investigation we were making. I swiftly picked up the call. "Cam?" I mumbled sleepily. At first, he didn't speak. But I could hear his heavy breathing. He must have found something. Something he was hesitating to tell me. Was he in danger? "Cam!" I yelled sitting upright. Sleep fled as adrenaline pumped through my veins in large doses. "It's okay, I'm here," he urged. "I was just... Trying to get over the shock,""What shock?" I asked, feeling confused. "Have you seen Arabella Montgomery, Nate?" He asked and I frowned. "This again? Cameron, please tell me you didn't call me so you could gush over a woman!" "Will you call down?

Seventy-SixChloe"Hello,"I could hear his voice. It pierced through the walls erected around my heart, possessing every nook and cranny of my soul. He sounded the same. No, that was wrong. His voice had the same silvery feel to it. But he sounded different. Gruff and hoarse. The sound of a man who had carried more than he could bear. I glanced at the card in my trembling hand while the other held the phone to my ear. I had suspected that it would be him. When Melissa handed me a card with the initials NB on it, I suspected it was his. I just hadn't wanted to believe it. "Hello?" Nathan said again and the tears I thought were home forever, stung the corner of my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. He had met Adele the day before! He had seen her and talked to her. Dammit, had he seen the resemblance? Did he know she was his daughter? "Hello?" His voice increased in urgency and pitch showing he was getting impatient. I cut the call quickly and tossed the phone on my bed, feeling stup

Seventy-Seven Nathan Cameron was right. She was here. He had predicted that she would come to the Hamptons gala. And she did. "Chloe," I whispered, gripping the glass of whiskey in my hand tighter. She walked in dressed in the most lavish red gown I had ever seen. Her hair, golden in the bright glow in the hall, was tied up in a series of curls and knots that was most likely more complicated than phantom physics. They were the only thing about her that hadn't changed. She had grown older. It was clear from the way her face had lost the chubbiness that made her look innocent and naive. The woman before me was anything but innocent. Her eyes, blue as always had a sharp haunting look to them. She greeted everyone with a bright smile or lips but I could see the wariness deep in them. She was here. In-person. Chloe. God, how long has it been? I was transfixed, staring like a fucking dumb horse. She stopped before Hampton and his wife as they enveloped her in a hug. How did the

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
