A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 85
The first thing I noticed when I stepped into the room was the view, we were high up. The black silky drapes were opened and I could see the places surrounding the hotel for miles, I could even see the beach that was a couple of kilometers away. I didn’t come with a bikini but I was definitely going to visit that beach.I finally turned away from the view and took in the suite, it was grand and luxurious with its white couches, exotic rugs, and a round glass center table. The center table had magazines well stacked and two novels placed perfectly on it. The suite had a kitchen that was well furnished and stocked with items to make meals. The suite only had a room which meant William and I had to share the bed.Mathew planned ahead I guess.I was exhausted despite sleeping on the plane, I walked to the room and placed my bag beside the bed. I could hear the water running in the bathroom signifying William was in there showering. I removed my shoes and sweater like I did on the plane be
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 86
William was long gone by the time I woke up, it was nine in the morning.I hope his meeting ends up being successful, I know how hard he worked and how much this meant to him.I yawned as I walked into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee to give my system a well-needed boost. After drinking my coffee, I walk to the bathroom to shower to get ready for my day of mini-exploring. After showering, I pack my hair up in a messy bun and put on a summer dress and a pair of sandals, I twirl dramatically checking myself out in front of the mirror before grabbing my purse that had my phone and key card.First things first, I ought to find Alfredo.I use the private elevator to get down to the lobby, as the golden doors of the elevator slide open, I walk towards the receptionist’s desk. “Good morning.” I greeted her, and the receptionist lit up, a huge smile formed on her face“Good morning,” she replies cheerfully, I let out a sigh of relief, grateful I could communicate with her. “How can I help

William’s P.O.VAs I stepped out of the bathroom, adjusting my cufflinks, I was a bit surprised to see Henry standing at the entrance of the door. “Has he sent the location where we will be meeting?” “Indeed sit, he has, the meeting is scheduled for 10 a.m promptly. Should I call for the driver?”“Yes, do that and pack our things, we are heading there now, we need to go over everything again so we don’t miss any crucial information.”“Yes sir,” Henry replies nodding, he grabs my laptop bag and briefcase whilst calling the driver to meet us at the hotel’s entrance. I walked ahead of him, pocketing my iPhone and snatching a keycard off the top of the table. I made my way to the private elevator.The elevator door slid open and we stepped out into the lobby, walking out to the entrance.“Buongiorno.” The security greets as he holds the car door open. I gave him a nod before entering the car with Henry following behind. Henry gives the directions to the restaurant while I scroll through

William’s p.o.vBailey walked over to us with a shopping bag in her hand. What was she even looking for? Why was she wandering around?She walks faster and stands beside Henry. “Hi, what are you guys doing here? Are you also touring?” she asks but I simply ignore her, I wasn’t ready for her stupid questioning after losing the major investor I needed for my product launch.“We aren’t, we just needed our meeting,” Henry answered in my stead.“How did that go? Was it successful?” she asks, smiling up at Henry. Henry shook his head no. I could feel her staring at me as I tapped away, messaging Marco to pick us up since Henry told him to be around the vicinity till we were done.“Miss Bailey, is that you?” Fabio Conti calls from behind me, walking out of the restaurant. We all turned around as he walked closer. “Hi, nice to meet you again, how is Enzo?” she says, smiling at him.Enzo? What exactly am I missing here? How does he know her?“He is fine. How do you know Mr William Armani?” he

William’s p.o.vI placed my phone on the kitchen island and walked to the room to pick out a pair of black sneakers and a silk shirt to go with the jeans I was wearing.“Get dressed, you have ten minutes,” I say, glancing at Bailey who was sprawled on the bed like a wounded octopus with her phone in hand.She acts so inappropriately.“What? Where are we going? And w-” She asks but I cut her off slamming the door abruptly. I put on my shirt, buttoned it up, and slid into my sneakers before making my way to the kitchen.I brought out the wine bottle again, pouring myself a generous glass. I needed more of this if I was going to survive these coming days. I downed the contents at a go, I returned the wine to its place and I picked up my phone from the kitchen island, returning to the living area.“Where are we going?” Bailey asks, walking out of the room and putting her phone in the small bag she held. I glanced at her outfit, from the sneakers on her feet to the denim buttoned skirt and

William’s p.o.vShe stops on the spot and whirls around facing me. “You’ve been here for almost three hours and you haven’t done anything fun, who goes to a carnival and acts like a bodyguard?” She asked, narrowing her eyes at me in a feeble attempt to intimidate me but it wasn’t having the desired effect on me. I didn’t answer her and just stared at her, she couldn’t see my eyes since I was still putting on my dark shade.“Argh, how old are you again? Fifty?” She asks and I scowl at her. “Learn to have some fun and loosen up. I strongly doubt you know how to have one, did you play as a child?” She asks rubbing her chin and analyzing me “I know how to have fun, I just choose not to waste my time on meaningless activities.”“Meaningless activities?” She gasped and I rolled my eyes at her. “You certainly don't know how to have fun if you think the carnival is filled with meaningless activities.”“Because it is, give me one meaningful activity that is done here?” She looked down in tho
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 91
Bailey’s p.o.v.After we watched the fireworks show, we got in the car and drove back to the hotel. We got back late due to the traffic around the carnival area since everyone was leaving at the same time. I ended up slightly dozing off in the car since the ride was double the time we took getting there and William didn’t hide his displeasure with the traffic. When we got back to the hotel, we slept off without wasting any time with how we had spent our day at the carnival.I yawned as I walked into the bathroom, it was almost noon and I had just woken up, William wasn’t in the room so I assumed he was awake and maybe in the living room or out. I walked to the sink to brush my teeth first before turning on the shower and stepping under the shower head, letting the water cascade down. I grabbed the soap and my sponge and scrubbed my skin clean.After showering, I walked out of the bathroom with the hotel white towel around me, I searched through my bag for what to wear, and I settled f

“Where are we going?” He asks looking down at me as we walk out of the hotel.“You’ll see when we get there. Stop asking.” I say grinning at him and he responds with a glare.“I didn’t know you could speak Italian, I was surprised yesterday when you conversed with the front desk lady. How did you learn?” I ask.“Do you even know me at all?” He asks“Is that a trick question?” I ask but he blankly stares at me. “I don't know anything about you.”“I’m Italian, idiota. What culture did you think my last name represented?” he said, his voice filled with curiosity and amusement. “I’m not going to answer that and I’m not an idiot either, how was I supposed to know that, it’s not like we are friends or anything,” I say, folding my arms as we continue walking to my destination.After a few minutes of walking, we finally arrived at the buzzing market. I glanced up at William in an attempt to read his thoughts from his expression but I couldn’t decipher it. It was a street of vendors, selling
