CHAPTER 7

As they stepped out of the mansion, the night air wrapped around them like a cool embrace, the distant sounds of laughter fading into the background. Ivy turned to Matt, her gratitude evident in her eyes. "Thank you for being my rock tonight. I honestly couldn’t have done it without you."

Matt offered a half-smile, his gaze drifting away as if searching for something in the shadows. "Just doing what I can"

Ivy gave him a warm smile "I guess we should call it a night then, you came with your car right ?"

He hesitated, the moment stretching between them. “I didn’t drive,” he admitted.

Ivy raised an eyebrow, curiosity piqued. " So how did you get here, a taxi?"

He glanced at her, a flicker of something deeper hidden behind his calm facade. "Let’s not dwell on that."

"Okay, I guess I'll have to drop you off then. Where is........" Ivy stated, but he cut her off, his tone shifting to a playful challenge.

    CHAPTER 8 "Are you just going to watch me all night?" Ivy teased, trying to lighten the mood, though her heart raced. Matt's gaze intensified, his voice low and serious. "I can't help it. You're captivating. But we need to talk about the contract." Ivy turned to face him, a hint of apprehension in her eyes. "What about it?" "I think I should move in, it’ll make things easier " he suggested, his tone firm yet inviting. She raised an eyebrow, surprised. " Oh, I was skeptical about bringing it up earlier.....I didn't want you to feel less of a man just because of a contract " "Yeah, it makes sense. A random nobody married to a CEO will make the headlines but not to worry we can sort that , when do I get the contract?" " Umm.... let's give it a little more time, My best friend is still working on it, she's my Attorney " " Oh.......I can't wait to meet her then. We should definitely pay her a visit , so she can meet me formally " " That shouldn't be a problem, I'll arrang

    CHAPTER 9 "Can you please tell me where we are going" Ivy called from behind, slamming the door behind her. Matt turned with a smirk on his lips. "You'll find out soon enough, and oh you might want to change into something light" He pointed. "Something light?" Ivy repeated, inspecting her girl power office fit. " Yes, something sunny. I'm ready when you are" "You really won't tell me where we are going all of a sudden?" Matt quietly walked over to the Dinning table intending to finish his interrupted Breakfast. Ivy sighed and made her way upstairs. Ivy stands in front of her closet, staring blankly. Where were they suddenly going to? Something suddenly clicked in her mind, Wait.....was he jealous? Ivy found herself giggling at the thought, she was sure Matt was jealous of Wilson. He was probably taking her on a date to claim his territory. It dawned on her "A date?!" She almost screamed. "Calm down girl you've got this" She said before proceeding to wreck her entire cl

Emily's eyes widened in horror. "Father, that's insane! We can't just spy on people!

" This isn't a big deal? Ethan you've been spending an awful amount of money lately and it's affecting the company " Ivy responded trying to contain her anger. " My Company, my money in case you forgot you are just the MD " Ethan pointed out while sipping his cocktail. " Your Company? I worked my butt off to get us to where we are today and you've almost destroyed everything we've built within 6 months " Ivy snapped. The maids and butlers watched from a safe distance in awkward silence, this wasn't the first time, heck they've been having heated arguments for months now.

She felt the weight of every gaze as couples mingled, their hands intertwined, their smiles bright. A knot formed in her stomach; she had come alone, fully aware of the unspoken theme of the evening. Irene, she was responsible for this. Her eyes darted across the room, her heart beating wildly in her chest. Then she spotted Irene, her biggest rival. Irene stepped into the room wearing a stunning, form-fitting red dress that hugged her curves perfectly, accentuating her figure. She paired it with strappy black heels that added height and elegance to her look. Her hair was styled in loose, glamorous waves that cascaded over her shoulders, and her makeup was flawlessly done, with smoky eyes and a bold red lip that matched her dress.

" This might be a contract marriage but you are still going to be my wife meaning you belong to me both your body and your soul for as long as the contract says " His words sent a chill down her spine, and a smile suddenly crept to her face.......oh Good Lord what was she thinking? she should be scared but something about belonging to him actually made her excited.
