A DEAL WITH THE BILLIONAIRE

(A Contract Marriage)

EPISODE ONE HUNDRED AND TWO

THEME: New Home

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, USA.

Raven drove into the house premises feeling exhausted. It had been a long ride. The ride to Brooklyn wasn't as easy as she had thought, especially with a child. Even though it was just about three hours from Connecticut, it had been draining because she had never had to drive for one hour straight.

Since they left Connecticut quite late, they had arrived past noon to Brooklyn. She had had to stop half way and they spent the night at a bed and breakfast inn. Rowan had been thrilled with the whole journey and kept talking about how he was going to tell everything as regards the journey to Grandma.

Raven glanced at Rowan who was sleeping soundly at the backseat. There would be a need to sit him down and explain the situation they were in. If not, he was sure to blow their cover. Getting down from the car, she checked for the house key after locking Rowan inside

How will Chris explain his situation / actions / decisions to his parents / Eva? I’m putting my money on Benjamin. He’s going to get rid of her 1 way or another, but that shouldn’t excuse Chris. He needs to be held accountable for everything.

Back to Chris! Is he really allowing Jessica to move in as if Raven doesn’t exist? He doesn’t know where she is, when / if she may return. Is that really what he wants her to return to? What exactly is going through his head? He can’t be that clueless / stuck on Jessica.

Even without the GPS it was situated at the center of the town and there were other important stores. The area was really a small town with very good facilities. Raven smiled as she parked and walked into the store. She might as well get used to living here. Probably she could get a space for lease at a not too expensive rate and start her own little restaurant. Grabbing a cart, she began picking and dropping the essentials she felt they needed at home. She was at the veggies section when the lettuce box she picked fell out of her hand. “Oh my God!" She gasped out and bent to pick it but another person was fast enough to help her pick it up. "Thank you so much." She said looking up at the person and her breath seized. "Raven?" Said the man who had been nice enough to pick up her stuff. Still in shock R

Rowan had always been a good and reliable kid.Raven’s eyes watered as she watched her son feed his mouth and also feed his eyes with the cartoon he was watching."Can you clean up yourself Rowan?" She asked him, dropping her hands from his hair.Rowan nodded. “I can mom. I do help grandma with her dish chores most times too."Raven smiled, bending next to him. "And why is it most times and not every time?" She teased.“Cause a boy gets busy with homework, games, painting and so much more."

Raven opened the door to see Jacob standing at the door step with a weird smile on his face. She had wondered who it could be so early in the morning. Her thought was it might be the next door neighbor who had welcomed them with a bowl of cookies a day ago. Raven hadn't been feeling well for days and she was looking pale. Not wanting to appear raggedy, she had cleaned up her face and had a light lipstick on. It annoyed her that she had stressed herself for nothing. Looking behind him, she glared. "What the hell are you doing here? And how did you get to know this place?" Jacob stood back at the sight of Raven. Her cheeks lost a bit of color and she seem pale like she was sick. After bumping into her on Wednesday, he had decided to stay low key a bit and give her the chance to think about their meeting. Fate had ways of doing its own things. He had always wa

Tell me about no one coming to get you.” Benjamin threw a jab at her. Christopher rolled his eyes, wishing Raven was with him to shut the mouth of the two of them. “Can you both concentrate please?
