A Contracted Affair. Fifty five
Adrianna's pov I allowed him kiss me and I let him get into my head, I could have pushed him away or yelled at him when we were alone but I can't even face him. I asked for a raise so it wouldn't look as if I took it personal or I'm overreacting, things are definitely gonna get messy if I don't keep my mouth shut, God knows I'm still trying to take the scene off my head the way he kissed me.God this man can kiss and I can't recover from it, I avoided him for as long as I can and I'm happy he was doing the same too, He launched the Ai and we were done with our vacation. Part of me was glad to be done but I made friends with Bonnie and she thinks she'll see me again because of my demanding modeling job which is a blatant lie, If only they knew I'm not the person I claimed to be I'm sure they'll hate me and wouldn't want to speak to me ever again talk less to keep in touch with me. I saw Mira crying with her head on her thighs two days before our vacation was over,

Adrianna's pov Is my life in danger?. I don't know what they are both capable of but Tristan doesn't seem like a bad guy, "Looks can be deceiving" My subconscious reminded me. "What have I gotten my self into?" I groan and bang my head on the bed repeatedly, This isn't getting better and I'm no longer comfortable with this I'm not comfortable in this house either. Screw Tristan and his cousin but I won't be taking any risk I'll change my apartment before mom recovers. I didn't notice my eyelids were getting heavier and I fluttered my eyelashes, I can't even bring myself to sleep and yet I wanted to, this whole thing is starting to get the most of me and I regret going on this stupid vacation I have never being to LA before not to talk of having such a luxurious manor to stay in. I loved the experience but it's not worth the trouble I'm facing right now, I wanted to delete the number but I only ended up saving it just in case he calls me another day so I'll kn

Adrianna's pov What in the world is going on here the both of them are glaring at each other, Kristy had those suspicious looks in her eyes while Tristan I have no idea what was going on in his head. "I'll be inside" Kristy pecked my cheeks and whispered, "Tell your boyfriend to leave we have alot to discuss" Then she left for the room. Tristan stood up and pivots toward me then stood in front of me, He was taller than I am even with my standard height and athletic body I don't stand a chance to Mr CEO and his bossy aura. Why is he giving me those haughty eyes?. "Your girlfriend?" He raised an eyebrow, Wait now it makes sense a bit he thinks Kristy is my girlfriend and he is jealous?. "Are you jealous?" I smirk enjoying the look on his face, "Far from that, I don't want anything to go wrong our wedding will proceed sooner than you expected" He explained. "She is my best friend and I'm not dating anyone so you can rest assured that you can trust me" I smack his s

Adrianna's pov Kristy kept on blabbing about how I captured his heart or whatever, I wasn't listening my cold pizza wasn't helping either. "Are you done?" I mumbled and she groaned, "You weren't listening right?" I shook my head I have forgotten the name of the movie I'm supposed to be watching right now. Thanks to someone. "Ann you can't keep on doing this I know you're scared this might end up like before, I assure you Tristan is not him" She sounded so sure I had to divert my attention from the laptop to her. "You don't know him" I should remind her, "I know him enough from what you just told me honestly you could change this whole contract thing and just make it real" Oh my goodness she shouldn't go there I don't want that at all. "We won't be having this conversation again please" I begged and she sighed. "Fine you want to remain stuck with that asshole fine, You want to keep on mourning your loss fine I won't say anything about it again" If only she knows
A Contracted Affair. Fifty nine
Tristan's pov I sent my driver to pick her up from her house I know she'll still be with her best friend doing girly stuffs maybe gossiping about her trip to LA. Now standing in front of the glass walls in my office I watch pedestrians moving to and fro with so much energy I lack right now, Lyla always joked about how much of a loner I am or maybe she's right after all. Or maybe all I need is a spark to ignite my fire. I spotted my car driving into the parking lot and she stepped out looking really impressive, the dark shades made her look more mysterious to anyone who tries to recognize her. I do have a great eye for women because she was earning a lot of attention, She is wearing all blue even the jacket on her shoulders are blue and the color suited her perfectly. I heard a knock on my door and I mumbled a 'Come in', it's Enrique and I wonder what he is here to say because we've discussed all I need to know for now. " Sir, She is here to see you again" He info

Sixty. Adrianna’s Pov. I was so shocked, that I lacked words to say at the moment...“Why did he kiss me?” I couldn’t help but wonder, but then—it was as if he read my thoughts and he cleared his throat weirdly. “Enrique was watching,” He said simply, but I narrowed my eyes at him without knowing what to say. “I just couldn’t give her an opportunity to notice anything suspicious between us right?” He shrugged, but I still didn’t reply. I really didn’t know if he was telling the truth or if it was his excuse—but I knew that single of act of his managed to send shivers down my spine. “This is how he managed to skip my questions,” I thought, staring at him absentmindedly. I sighed silently, as I kept on staring at him trying to know what else he was up to. My legs began to hurt and I had to sit down directly before him. “I’m not sure I can concentrate with you staring at me like that,” I heard him say, and I had to clear my throat nervously—diverting my attention elsewhere. I br

Adrianna’s Pov. It was a day that mother-in-law fixed for us to go for the wedding shopping, but I had a Favour to ask her. I was currently waiting for her in the living room, while I was told that she’ll join me in a minute. Almost immediately, I heard click of heels descending the stairs and I didn’t need any soothsayer to tell me that she was my mother in law. “Mother,” I started, and she paused to stare at me before flashing me a beautiful smile. “My darling,” She responded, with curiosity etched on her forehead. “I have a favour to ask ma,” I stated, with my head bent. “Go straight to the point,” She said, and I breathed deeply. I really didn’t know how she’ll feel, but it was my day and not hers—I just hoped that she won’t take it anyhow. “I’d like to beg you to let me purchase my wedding dress myself,” I said, clutching my hands together in a nervous manner. “Sure,” She said with a very wide smile on her face.“Are you okay about that?” I asked breathing deeply, and sh

Adrianna’s POV. “Why me?” She asked, making me heave slightly. “You’re a model, and you’re also a person I trust would teach me well,” I said, and I noticed that she blushed slightly. She brought out her phone, played a video and handed it over to me. It was an easy tutorial class about beginners, and how they should walk and act on their wedding day. It could easily be learnt by just watching the video, and when I was so engrossed with the video—she revved the engine back to life and drove off. We got to another shopping mall to purchase few things, but I was still engrossed with the video I was watching and for real—it helped because I learnt some new things I never knew about. “Ugh finally!” I groaned, stretching my body as I massaged my knuckles—yawning slightly. My stomach grumbled, but I tried to control it and not act like I was hungry because we had a lot to do than to while away time eating. She had to purchase everything herself, after I gave her the black card whic
