A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 112
William’s p.o.vI woke up two hours later and dressed up for work, leaving Bailey as she slept soundly on her side of the bed. On getting to the office, I noticed the building was still moderately empty. I walked up to my office to meet Henry and Luke at the entrance. We sat together, working towards making a proposal that could get Ace Corporation back on board to re-invest in our company.We spent the next couple of hours discussing before sending in a final email. Now all we had to do was play the waiting game and I hated waiting.Knock, knock “Come in,” I respond to whoever was knocking on the other side of the door. Henry walked in with his hands behind his back, I glanced at the time on my laptop and it had been five hours since we sent the email for reconsideration.“What do you have for me?” I ask.A smile forced on Henry’s lips as he walked towards my desk. “They accepted the offer and sent over newly signed documents sir.”“That’s good to hear, have you informed Luke?”“Ind

Bailey’s p.o.vBy the time I woke up the next day, William's side of the bed was cold. I made breakfast for myself before dressing up and asking Cedrick to drop me off at Shayna’s office so I could spend her lunch break with her.“Bailey,” Shayna shouts turning the head of others who were present in the lobby. She runs up to me and engulfs me in a warm hug.“Way to make an entrance,” I respond, laughing as she releases me. “I’ve missed you,” I say, smiling at her.“Same here Hun, I haven’t seen you in a while and the last time we talked was when you came back from Rome.”“True,” I said as we walked our way through the sliding doors of her office building.“Where do you want us to eat?” she asks turning to me.“I’m thinking Daisy’s since we haven’t been there in a minute.”“Alright let’s go,” she replied before pulling me in the direction of the bus station“No need for that, I have Cedrick here with me,” I say and she releases my hand as I lead her to where Cedrick is parked, we get i

True to his words, William had stocked the fridge with loads of junk food or diabetes stuff like he would call them.“Hi,” I say, bringing my attention from the chopping board where I was chopping onions to him. It has been a couple of hours and I decided to make dinner for the both of us. He was no longer dressed in his office clothes anymore, he had changed to a pair of sweatpants. “Why aren’t you putting on a shirt?” I asked, raising my eyebrow.“Why? Does it bother you?” He replies with a smug look.I shake my head. “pft of course not.”“What are you doing?” He asks as he takes a seat in front of the kitchen island.“Making dinner, Mario’s shift is over so I took it upon myself to do so, Hope you don’t mind?” I inquired, gauging his reaction.“I don’t mind.” He shrugged. “What are you making?”“Stir Fry Noodles.”“Yum, that was actually one of my favorite foods growing up.”“Right,” I say, agreeing with him as I look up before turning back to the board. “ It was the first food I l

William’s p.o.vI impatiently tapped my pen on my thigh as I listened to the conversation between my Head of departments and the shareholders in the boardroom, Henry went on discussing the cases they had been brought to the attention of the board. The meeting had been going on for far too long and it was getting pointless as no important points were being made anymore, all it was simply doing was adding to the headache I already had. The meeting was centered on all the events that had happened in the past month and also on the process and progress of the upcoming product launch.I felt a light kick on my leg as I turned to Luke who was seated at my left side on the table. I arched a brow at him waiting for him to speak. “You are the CEO, please end this and put me out of this misery.” He whispered to me.I cleared my throat, which made the staff talking halt, and the rest of the people present turned to me. “That's enough, I think that will be all for today, and this meeting is boring

Bailey’s p.o.vWilliam was long gone by the time I woke up the next day. I spent the early part of the day with Agatha and Mario till they left, afterwards, I spent a few more hours in the library.I finished the novel I was reading and suddenly found myself craving cookies and I knew the kitchen had the ingredients I needed so I decided to make them. I grabbed my phone and took it to the kitchen with me, to play my playlist as I worked.The beat of the song took me away as I danced around like a maniac in the kitchen space, reaching out for the kitchen utensils that I needed.“What are you doing?” I hear William's voice and I turn around surprised, almost causing me to lose my balance.“H-how long have you been there?” I ask, pausing my music playlist on my phone.“Long enough to see you do your weird dance.” He says, I knew he didn’t mean it harshly but I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed that he caught me dancing stupidly in my sweats. He leaned against the door arching his brows

After the little make-out session we had in the kitchen yesterday, nothing seemed to be awkward after all we were two consenting adults, we even had a full make-out session again this morning before he left for work.I made my way down the stairs yawning as I headed to the dining area to eat my Lunch. “Good Afternoon.” I greeted Mathew who was already seated at the table.“Good afternoon Bailey, how are you?”“I am good, you?’ I ask uncovering the plate In front of me.“I’m good too. Mind joining me in the garden after you've finished your lunch?”“I don’t mind,” I replied and he nodded. I watch him walk out of the dining room before turning to my lunch. I still felt a tinge of embarrassment around Mathew knowing that he caught us locking lips yesterday.As I ate, I chatted with Shayna who was at work. After having my lunch, I made my way to the garden in search of Mathew.He was seated on my usual bench in front of the fountain, beside him was an arranged chess board with all its pla

I woke up early and immediately felt a surge of sadness wash over me, I can't believe I forgot about today. I glanced to my side at the sleeping William before quietly getting out of bed, and hurriedly making my way to my room.I brushed my teeth and stripped out of my clothes, stepping into the shower. I turned it on, letting the water cascade down my head as I bawled my eyes out in the shower. I stood under the shower for over ten minutes before stepping out. I made my way to the closet, pulling on a black jeans and black v-neck sweater and sneakersAs l I dried and combed my hair, I looked at the mirror and the sad reflection of a girl who had cried her heart out stared back at me, it’s been years but it still hurts. I looked away from the mirror as my eyes watered. I packed my hair in a sleek bun walking out of the closet. I switched my phone off as I stepped out of my room, making my way out of the house.It was my dad’s death anniversary today and I intended to spend the day as

“Hello, again.” He said, slowly waving his fingers at me, he was dressed in jeans and a black silk shirt.“Why are you here,” “No, I am not, this bench is public property so I have the same equal rights to sit here as you do.”“Right. Okay then, let me rephrase. Are you stalking me? You are, aren’t you? How did you even know where I was?” I ask him. He chuckles under his breath before turning to me.“I’m not stalking you, I was just passing by.”“That seems oddly suspicious,” I replied, narrowing my eyes at him.He chuckles, shaking his head. “If you want me to stalk you, I will. All you have to do is ask Angel.” He said with a sly smile on his face making me roll my eyes.“And why will I want that? That's creepy and besides you said you’ll see me again so sue me for thinking you’re a stalker”“I did say that but that doesn’t make me a stalker. Why are you out here looking at the hospital building, I assume you know someone there so why aren’t you in there?”“None of your business,”
