A Deal With the Arrogant Billionaire 110. Deep thinking
"I'm not coming back tomorrow. Not even the next. But I might be back on Friday." Yara said over the phone.She was sitting in the reception office of the hospital her mother was rushed to, just few minutes ago. She had to call Grayson to inform that he shouldn't expect her return anytime soon."Why? Have your friend's condition deteriorated?" Grayson asked."Why would you ask me that when you're I'm not a caretaker?!" Yara sneered, reminding him of his exact words the day she left for Virginia. "Whatever. Just make sure to take care of yourself and our child." "I'll take care of my child, Grayson. Thanks for your fake concern. But I'll pass." Yara stated, placing emphasis on the word 'my' before hanging up.She was slightly irritated that Grayson didn't sound remorseful neither did he apologize to her about locking her up that day. If he was waiting for her to first apologize for slapping him, then she believed he deserved another slap.Yara dropped her phone on her thighs and buri

The very moment her boss finished having a brief conversation with the receptionist who kept stretching her lips into a smile, a nurse came to direct him to a private ward.Yara froze as they passed where she sat. She wished she was on shades or was rocking a face cap at that moment. But the circumstance that got her here wasn't one that would let her have the luxury of time to wear one.Luckily, Mr Fel and his bodyguard passed by without him noticing her. Not that something different could happen had he sighted her. But Yara didn't want to take chances. Tomorrow she would be expected to come around at the company's headquarter but she can never leave her mother in the hospital, all in the name of work.She had planned the sort of excuses she'd give for not coming when expected. And should Mr Fel find her here, that would lead to thwarted plans.Few minutes later, Yara was invited to the doctor's office. She couldn't wait to hear what the man had to say even though something in her dr

The very moment she left the room, Yara ran right into Mr Fel Oscar. She gasped in shock and tried to hide her face and walk away but that was impossible because she had already been seen. And Mr Fel spoke to her first."We finally get a chance to talk." Mr Fel smiled at her. Yara could not remember ever seeing her boss smile. He had a beauty smile and he looked more attractive than he was the last time she saw him. And that was few hours ago.She didn't really understand his words. Her suspicion that he must have seen her got worse just now."I didn't expect too see you here, Mr Osar. Have a nice day." Yara forced a smile and made to walk away.But she felt a warm hand circled around her wrist, causing shivers to run down her spine. She was shocked at his effect on her and that got her spinning as he wanted towards him."We'll have a nice day together, I know. If you don't mind, we can have a drink while we talk about a few things." Mr Fel stated.Yara felt her cheeks suddenly heat

His lips curled up in a smirk. There was something in his eyes that seemed to mock. She wasn't sure if that was it. The eyes could lie as well, she learnt from her mother."I'm intrigued. What do you want to know about me?" Mr Fel asked her.Yara crossed her legs and feigned to be in thoughts. But actually, there was no explanation to the fact that this man is in her head most of the times. She wouldn't tell him that some other man also ran through her mind."Just curiosity. I'd be staring outside the window and I'd start to think about what you could be doing at that moment. What stuffs you like and dislike..." Yara couldn't finish her words.She know this wasn't an appropriate discussion one should be having with their boss. But then, he started this. And this wasn't their workplace. So she was kind of hanging out with Fel Oscar not the CEO of Oscaris Fashion Dressing Company. At least, that was what his asking her to drink with him should mean.In the office, he wouldn't do that.

"Don't tell me you took that to impress me. To be honest, I did forget that you are pregnant." Mr Fel had a serious expression on his face. "I don't impress guys, I do me. You don't know what I came across when I got to the restroom which made me want to drink and forget how it embarrassing it felt. But you say you forgot about I was pregnant? How so?" This wasn't the first time he poured out drink for her. He did so before she left for the restroom and now."A lot of things just went wrong. This might be sensitive to you but you don't really look pregnant so I kind of nursed the thought that you aborted. I'm really sorry for saying this to you. But you want me to be honest, right?""When you asked me to have a drink with you, you forgot? Or you nursed that thought." Yara asked, emphasizing on the second to the last word."Before I asked you to have a drink. When I saw you the first time at the reception office and you hid your face, I was kind of curious. And when we walked into eac

Grayson waited angrily for Yara's response. That lady kept making things difficult for him, all the time. She was adamant, unyielding and annoying. Sitting with a scoff evident on her face was Tiffany Mark who wouldn't quit making moves towards him. He was deeply irritated by her presence but that was something he could not handle at the moment. He had gone earlier to a restaurant to eat out. Probably, he would never admit it out but he missed eating with that adamant lady that keeps making him smile and get angry. She was too good in triggering his emotions. Eating alone since she left made him realize how incredibly lonely he had been before she began staying with him. So he tried as much as Possible to avoid thinking of her by eating out and keeping himself all busy. Grayson was surprised at himself that he had tolerated her behavior that day. Never had he ever been slapped since he became of age without the perpetrator getting their just reward. It was only twice by the way.T

Yara's hands trembled as she typed back. She tossed he phone aside when her mother moved on the bed. She didn't want to make her worry or have any suspicions."Stop watching me and sleep. I'm not dying." Patricia stated with a sigh."I don't feel like sleeping. I already did enough of that few hours ago." Yara lied. She hoped her mother would believe that the hours she spent outside her room was somewhere in the hospital where she had a good rest. Patricia half glared at her. "Where?""Huh?""You left me alone and went to sleep outside? Are you suddenly scared of staying with me? The bed can fit the both of us." Patricia told her with a frown."Don't think of it as that. I wanted you to have enough rest without being disturbed." Yara stated, reaching for her mom's hand.She held it tightly. Not too tight to hurt her, but in a way that she felt her heart drop for this woman."I promise to avenge dad's death if the Dolans have a hand in it." Yara said in a low tone."Vengeance is not y

Yara was folding her clothes into her traveling bag. She paused to tie her hair into a ponytail as she went back to packing her stuffs. For she would leave home today.Patricia- her mother insisted that she must be discharged. When Yara expressed her dissatisfaction to her mom, the latter stated that the hospital would kill her faster than Leukemia. She didn't know why but Yara knew her mother always hated being admitted in the hospital after the death of her father. Yara was angry at her mother's decision but had no choice than to let her have it her own way. She didn't talk to her when they were in the taxi on their way back from the hospital. Patricia had asked her to pack her bags and leave. But not in a rude manner. Her mom was concerned that she could miss out on her school projects since she was in her final year. And also, she could have issues in her workplace. Yara carried her traveling bag out of the room, dropping it on the corridor that led to her mom's room. She was d

The thought made Yara smile. A child was coming, so the mansion was not going to remain boring forever.The only issue she had at the moment with her pregnancy was the four temper that suddenly came with it. She something couldn't recognize herself any longer because she would snap and yell at anyone whenever she got cross.Yara did not want Tehila to be a victim of her foul temper so she gave her the opportunity of taking some time away from the mansion to breathe and do other things she wanted. But Tehila had vehemently refused, insisting of taking care of her. And that moved her to tears.Whether it was plain hatred for the word 'neighbour' or just because that he liked being alone, Yara had no idea. There were rarely people visiting Grayson. They did come once in a while and he even used to have indoor parties; but after that day she was almost raped, there was almost never a guest.Yara stared at her wrist. She was an hour late for their meeting. She wondered if Mr Fel had though

Yara pushed herself off the comfortable leather of the Benz. She heard a faint squish before peering through the windscreen from the back seat. A look through it made her realize they were not anywhere near the park. Hell, they had not even made it past Grayson's gate. She watched the sky high silver gate roll open slowly. She tapped her foot on the floor, with her pointer and middle fingers drumming against her head. That was the only thing that kept her from snapping at the bald headed gate man who stood watching the gate with the remote control in his wrinkled right hand. Her temper had gotten worse these past few days. Maybe it was because she was drawing nigh to day she would go into labour.She was about rolling down the glass to snap at the man, when the gate finally came open and the car resumed it's motion. She blew out a breath and let her back land on the chair. Yara closed her eyes for a few minutes in a bid to clear her head. What was she planning to do? She had no rea

"Yara please... I need you to for...give... I'll explain, okay? Let's just meet up..."My nails were digging into my skin at this point and I didn't mind the pain. Several thoughts ran through my mind at that moment as I waited for her to finish speaking. _Why did she even still have my number? Could it mean that she was actually shameless?_She felt her lips tugging up at that thought as she ignored the heavy breathing on the other end of the line. Just when my lips had curved into a full smile, a silly voice at the back of my head came crashing into my thoughts. _Or maybe it has something to do with the countless missed calls you give him on a daily basis with different numbers_. My smile fell at that moment and once again, she was filled with rage. If my subconscious was a person, she would have stabbed the living daylight out of it. At that moment, she became aware of David's voice at the other end of the line. She was only able to make out something about meeting him at a cer

The house greeted her with it's usual gesture, the silence resonating more than it had ever done. Her fingers brushed against the wooden lintel as she made her way into the sitting room, echoes of her footsteps thrown back at me with every step I took. Unsure if she was still in control of my body, she drifted further into the living room until she was well past it. Yara stepped onto the wooden staircase, my hand finding the banister as she moved up. Even with the left banister supporting her weight, she felt like she would trip at any moment and she would have grabbed onto the other banister if it wasn't miles away from my reach. _Fucking exaggerated staircase._After what seemed like ages, she found her way to her mother's study. She dropped down on the rotating chair in the middle of the room, feeling the leather crease under my weight. The impact caused her to spin around for a second before the chair came to a standstill. Yara stared at the monitor that faced me before my eyes

Yara glanced at her phone screen for the umpteenth time, resisting the urge to pick it up. She had been tempted to call Cara from the minute she informed her that she would be leaving for her honeymoon. It would only be right for her to call to check if they had arrived safely but then she didn't want to disturb her or interrupt her time with Covey. If they had arrived much earlier than planned, then her call would be a disturbance. After much thought, she decided to call her the next morning. At least then she would be sure she wasn't disturbing her. She let out a sigh, rolling over on her bed. The moment she cancelled out calling Cara from her mind, the next name that popped up in her head was Angelina. She hadn't spoken to her in a while and although she knew she probably wouldn't pick up her call, she grabbed her phone and rung her up..After about three trials, she gave up, deeming it pointless. She groaned, tossing her phone aside. Just then, her ringtone blasted through the

One of Covey's hands left Cara's waist, the grip of the other tightening to make up for the loss. His fingers trailed around the hem of her top for a moment before moving upwards. She let out a moan when his hand unclasped her bra and kneaded her breast. His lips left hers, allowing her to catch her breath while he sucked on the nape of her neck. "Covey," she moaned, feeling lightheaded. She was vaguely aware of the elevator arriving on their floor before a ding sounded and the door opened. Covey seemed completely unaware of the fact as his hands continued roaming every part of her body while his lips worked wonders. Covey nibbled on a particular spot, driving her completely over the edge. She let out a loud moan, shutting her eyes while relishing the pleasure. The things he did to her. She reopened her eyes to find a pair of eyes trained on her. She was speechless for about a minute before she finally found her voice. "Covey," she whispered, still staring at the people standing

"Who is Kiki?"The question came tumbling out before Cara could even stop herself. Corey stared at her for about a minute without speaking. She was starting to think that the network had begun to disturb until she heard his voice again."No one important.""No one important?" Cara repeated, raising a brow, "The bitch called some hours ago faking some damn congratulations. And yeah, she mentioned being close to you and you're saying she's no one important!? She told me shit about your ex like I care about your past? For all I know, she's probably some deranged lunatic who needs to be looked into""Hey, calm down," Corey said and she rolled her eyes. "I can't calm down when I know that there's a creep out there who happens to be close to you. Should I not be disturbed? Babe, you can't possibly expect me to be calm. At least let me know what she has to do with you."Cara's shoulders had slacked a bit and her voice probably sounded whiny but she did not care. "I told you already, she's

"We hope you enjoy your stay here," the receptionist said, a warm smile gracing her face. Cara returned the smile as she extended her hand to collect the key card from her. The receptionist looked like she couldn't be more than twenty. Highest, she'd be in her early twenties. "Thank you," Cara said, still maintaining her smile. The receptionist nodded, keeping on her own smile. The nod caused the wine red hijab she wore, which matched her uniform, to ruffle a bit. Cara spun around afterwards, concluding that everyone in Qatar was nice. Ever since she and Covey arrived, all the people they met had been nothing but warm to them. Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Covey in a while. He was supposed to meet her ages ago but he was nowhere in sight. She glanced around the almost empty reception in hopes of seeing him. While her eyes roamed every corner of the place, a tap on the back made her jump. She spun around to find Covey smiling at her. "You. . ."She pressed her lips together

Grayson pulled her closer into his arms. It was awkward because the light were on and it constantly reminded her of what she was about to give in to.She remained rigid. Her body was melting in his arms and her ovaries screamed for his touch but she did not show it. She fought the sudden urge to be kissed senseless. She hated that she was vulnerable because his scent was intoxicating, further playing with her senses, and her walls further breaking down.She had to do something fast before she gives in to her body so she pulled away from his hold."You're mad about the wedding?" Grayson whispered. The room was suddenly looking dim. While he had inquired from her, he turned to his bedside table and switched off the dolphin blue bed lamp. He had intended to leave it on while he switched off the lights. But Yara didn't want that.Yara's heart beat accelerated. The suddenly dimness further increased her desires. "I'm not just mad about the wedding. I just want to sleep peacefully." She s
