A second Chance with my Billionaire Contract Husband Chapter 24; Dazed condition
Page fell to the floor, her hands clutching her stomach. The pain was too much to bear. She kept groaning in pain, trying so much to combat the excruciating pain but it wasn't in her power. Katherine screamed and bent to the ground, turning Page who laid on her side to lay on her back. Tears pricked the corners of her eyes, they stung and her throbbing, squeezing heart banged and hurt so much."Oh my God, Miss Brooks!" Katherine shouted. "Call an ambulance," she had instructed Page's chauffeur, cooing her to soothe the pains. She knelt on the ground and placed Page's upper back on her laps. Her hands set to work, one caressing her soft, silky hair and the other, pressing against her wound."One will be here in a bit," he informed her. "Take off her jacket so that she is only on her shirt, gently blow air on her face," Page's chauffeur, a man in his mid-forties instructed Katherine.She gently took the jacket off her boss and it was swiftly grasped from her hold. He folded the ja

Page was driving home, exhausted from a rather hectic day and longing for a relaxing, satisfactory dip in strawberry and rose scented bubbling body wash infused in warm water. Yearning for the evening's cool breeze to dance through her bouncy, long black hair, she turned off the car's air conditioner and pressed a button that made the roof of the car open. “This feels really good," she sighed.Her mind traveled back to the horrible trance she had and she shivered. For the record, she had always been an optimistic person, one with the stoutest of heart and detested every form of negativity, bad energy and contrariness. That her mind could picture such a horrible event scared her, she was appalled. Thinking back to it, she decided to assume that what played out in her mind actually happened, why the hell did someone not go after such a malevolent perpetrator? She asked herself.Refusing to let the threat Simon made get to her, she turned on some music and sang along with the artiste,

“Babe, I think the food is burning!" Derek shouted as he stood in front of the cooker, filling his nostrils with the aroma of his girlfriend's savory dish. He felt as though he could already taste the delectable meal without having to take a spoon of it. “Take it down!" Lina turned away from the phone and instructed.“Where did you keep the mittens?” “Oh my good God," she sighed, blowing air out of her mouth."Page baby, we will talk later okay? I have to finalize my cooking and serve Derek, he hasn't had lunch or dinner,” she said to Page reluctantly, sad that she had to put their interesting conversation on hold.“Can he not help himself to it?" Page grumbled.“You know he can't. To take down the pot of food from the cooker is a problem for him, talk more of actually serving himself,” she fielded then chuckled lightly.“Ok then, we would take later babe," Page said and proceeded to end the call.Rowan was already seated on the couch opposite the one on which Page was seated.

Rowan yawned, using the back of his hand to cover his mouth. Fatigue was written all over him in black ink that anyone who painstakingly looked at him could notice. He took a sip from his cup of Americano coffee and sighed, leaning back on his large comfy swivel chair so that his head and back were placed on it and his eyes were closed as he rested for a while. Not being able to sleep the previous night, annoyed that he hadn't heard Page's footsteps that was to signify her call had ended and she was heading to her room to go to bed, he opted to go through some documents in his laptop. He had kept himself occupied throughout the night, reviewing documents upon documents. During the early hours of the morning, he fell asleep on the sofa on which he sat, assuming a weird position. Apparently, that was the reason behind his aching neck.A knock sounded on his door. He was reluctant to move his mouth and body so he feigned deafness. The knock sounded again but he still didn't say anything

Rowan staggered into the house with his jacket in his hand. He had called his personal assistant to the bar to drive him home. He walked up the stairs and sat on the floor in front of Page's door with the foot of one of his legs placed on the floor, his head leaning on the door. The lady that had sat on his lap in the bar had hoped to draw his attention by trying to touch him but he violently pushed her off his lap the moment she gyrated her hips. Rowan's foxy and dreamy body coupled with his excessive wealth made ladies go extremely crazy over him, jumping at every opportunity to show off their assets to him as though they were products being advertised, with hopes that they would impress him. Rowan was someone who knew how to hold his liquor but that night was different. He had drank more than he used to and was drowning in a pool of emotions. They were overwhelming him and what he wished to do was let them subdue him so, that was exactly what he did. He yielded to its overpoweri

Will stood in front of the restaurant he had made a reservation for his first date with Page. It was a warm promising evening. He couldn't stop thinking about her and the undeniable attraction he felt towards her the last time they met and he was unmistakably sure that she felt it as well. With a deep breath, he walked into the restaurant after wiping his dark blue tuxedo with his hand as though there was a speck of dust on it. He had told one of his friends about Page, the lady he had his eyes on and his plan to ask her out and he had cheered him on.On the other hand, Page had agreed to go on a date with Will after confiding in her best friend. “Rowan kissed you passionately, had sex with you – oral sex and penetration – but acted like you were one of his many conquests and insulted you, calling you a desperate slut after giving him your virginity. No man would do that to a woman he really cares about or likes. Again, he had clearly told you at the very beginning that the marriage

“Page —” Rowan called but she walked past him.Whatever he wanted to say to her, she didn't want to hear. Off to work she went in an all black attire: black suit, black shoes, black handbag, black wristwatch and black earrings, deep in thought. On the days she dressed like that to work – in a one-colour themed outfit – she didn't wear a smile and her employees were always meticulous and overly diligent around her on those days. From inside the company, some of her employees and Katherine sighted her through the company's transparent door. On high alert, each person began to concentrate their attention on what they were doing. Katherine walked to Page who had her right hand in her pocket as her left hand held onto her handbag. Katherine walked beside her boss who wore a stony expression and walked in a majestic manner, she knew better than to say a word as she was quite aware that she would be snubbed.As soon as Page had sat down in her office on her big swivel chair, Katherine read

Page stood on her three inches black heels with her hands in her pockets, unwilling to let her expression give away how shocked she was.“We meet again," the person said with a mischievous smile.Still, Page stood without talking or blinking, looking with disgust at the ungovernable lady that stood in front of her. With her heels, she was the same height with Irene who was on flats.Irene chuckled like a little brat and looked at Page.“What's with the outfit Mrs Cannon? Did my baby, Rowan divorce you?" She uttered in-between uncontrollable chuckles.Page took out her left hand from her pocket and glanced at her wristwatch. It was fifteen minutes to ten.“I have nothing to say to you Irene. Katherine, let's be on our way," Page said.“Why? You had a lot to say the last time we met," she scoffed.“Oh! Rowan hasn't probably told you about the relationship we shared," Irene said in an uncultivated manner.Page blinked lazily as though what she had just heard didn't stun her. Katherine wa

“So? How did he take the news?" Lina asked over the phone whilst Page listened but kept her eyes on straight, not wanting to loose Rowan. She was worried that he was driving himself at that time and prayed that nothing would go wrong.“Not well. He was discombobulated and did not want a divorce,” she replied."But you are getting it despite whatever he said, right?" Lina asked.“I do not know Lina. I cannot give you a definite answer right now but all I can say is that I think Will has been playing us both," Page revealed.“What? Tell me you are joking."“I would if I were. He lied to Rowan and he lied to me. Rowan never cheated on me. I do not know what his motives are but based on what Rowan said, he lied to us both to manipulate us against each other then make us get a divorce when we cannot bear each other's presence anymore. Then, he would take it as his chance to be with me, playing ‘the saint’ in the process,” Page uttered."If that is not just an assumption but what is really

Page felt a pain in her heart at his words but her mind was made up. She had called her grandad and Lina prior to the time Rowan got back and told them she was getting a divorce.“I have given this marriage my all but it seems my efforts to make things work between Rowan and I have been futile. A loveless marriage is not what I wish for myself so therefore, this is where this union between the both of us ends," she had said to her grandad when he tried to tell her to wait some more time to see if he would change from his cold ways. She had chuckled painfully when he said that.“You know not the lengths I have gone for him in the name of love and the number of times he has thrown my hope for us to the ground and crushed it severally with his strong feet by stepping vigorously on it without mercy,” she had said to him when he was standing on his opinion of her giving him a second chance. Rowan sat beside her and dropped his head onto her shoulder."My Cupcake, my beautiful addiction,"

“It is not my fault nor was it within my power that I fell in love with that beautiful, irresistible woman. I never knew she was Rowan's wife. What do you expect me to do? Unlove her? Just like that? Fortunately, it does not work that way dad. I liked her, I fell for her! I want that woman and I would go for her. In fact, I am going for her. The rest of the world and those against it can drown themselves, they can go to hell for all I care!” He screamed, hitting his hand on the table.‘The audacity to yell. . .’ everyone at the table thought but remained still and quiet.Although, Rowan felt the urge to talk. “Mind you Will, I am seated right here," Rowan did well to remind Will, not appreciating the manner in which he spoke about his wife."So what? So what Rowan? Damn your presence, I am tired of being too cool about my feelings. I am tired of all this shit!” he said loudly with gestures.“Can you calm down son? Do you not see this is all shades of wrong?" His mum uttered softly as
A second Chance with my Billionaire Contract Husband Chapter 57; Get-together
In a sleek ultra-luxurious La Voiture Noire, Rowan drove, in a neatly ironed checked shirt with various shades of blue, a pair of black trouser and a pair of shiny black shoes to Will's parents house. His grandad had called to inform him that Thomas Garrett, Will's dad had returned to California after his three weeks trip to seal off some business deals and his wife, Eleanor Garrett, a sweet easygoing woman had suggested they get together, eat, laugh and catch up. She had informed Mr. Matthew Cannon about it as soon as she took the decision the day before and he had taken it upon himself to pass across the information to Rowan. Calling his grandson earlier to acquaint him slipped his mind so he had called an hour and thirty minutes before the get-together, right after he remembered. Though Rowan was not upset that he was apprised at that time, his grandad apologized. He took with him a bottle of expensive champagne, Mr. Garrett's favorite and a big bouquet of flowers, concretely peo

“Home sweet home," Page said in a song-like manner as she walked into her house after a long day of going through reports, signing documents and attending extremely important meetings.“Welcome Madam,” her head chef beamed and said when she walked to her. “Thank you dear. What I really need right now is a long dip in my jacuzzi bathtub a tasty meal,” she stated to her head chef that stood beside her in a long green gown covered by a white apron.“What would you like to have for dinner ma'am?” she asked. "Hmmm…" Page tapped her cheek with her index finger as she thought of what she wanted.“Make me some potato waffles for hors d'oeuvre, pasta and some beef sauce to be accompanied with sausages and a glass of white crisp wine for main course then, strawberry tarts for dessert” Page answered with an already watering mouth.“Preparation of your meals would start right away ma'am," her chef said and went to call the rest of the cooks so that the preparation of their mistress's meals woul

“You had sex Will?" Lina asked with her eyes widened and her head propelled forward, a voluntary reaction to what she thought had happened.“No Lina, relax. I didn't," Page uttered when Lina spoke."A good explanation of whatever happened is what's most needed here Page,” Lina said, itching to know what had happened.“He sat by me to confort me as I cried after the things he had told me Rowan did and told me to use him to get rid of my pains. He said other sweet things that made me want to kiss him not because he offered himself freely and spontaneously to me as an object of pain disintegration but because I wanted to know how I truly felt about him,” Page said and went silent. "Before I ask how you really feel about Will, tell me what occured before the kiss ensued,” Lina fielded, waiting to hear the most essential part of Page's story, so she deemed it.“Everything basically boiled down to the things he said and did. My heart and head were fighting in accordance against leaning int
A second Chance with my Billionaire Contract Husband Chapter 54; Recounting
Page concealed her hickeys behind a handful of her hair which fell over her shoulder as soon as she got into the elevator that led to the building's grand floor. She leaned against the wall of the elevator and breathed shakily, her bag clutched by her both hands. She ran her hand over her hair gently to make sure it was still neat and not sticking out in different places –she did not want to give his employees a hint of what had happened between her and their boss in his office. Outside, she got into her car and dropped her bag on the passenger's seat beside her. She waited for her erratic breathing to become stable before turning on a really nice dance-tempting music and heading to work. The thought of what had happened in Will's office filled her mind so she was neither focused on the music nor danced. She brought her car to a stop in front of her company and got down. With her hand stretched, she handed her key to her chauffeur –the one always at the front of the company. She had

“I was asking why you told Rowan we have shared a kiss," Page uttered, reminding him the question she had asked before he changed the topic. “It's complicated Page," Will sighed and answered.“What do you mean it's complicated?"“I mean that you would not understand why, obviously."“I am not dense Will. You have not told me anything yet so I do not get why you would assume I would not understand whatever you want to say,” Page said, putting her sunglasses down on the table in front of her. She knew she would be able to understand his reasons as long as he explained them clearly to her. Someone telling her she was not going to understand something without having said anything often irked her. Will was quite as he thought of the best way to explain things to Page.“The thing is…” he trailed off, taking a breath. Page wore a look that urged him to go on. She was starting to get tired of the suspense.“Okay so, I told Rowan that we kissed to punish him emotionally for disrespecting y

“Cancel my morning meetings Katherine, I have something I have to attend to but I would be at the office before noon. Hopefully,” Page said to Katherine over the phone.“Yes ma'am," Katherine replied before the call came to an end.Page wore her intoxicating but soft floral mix and walked out of her room. Rowan was no where to be seen when she got down the stairs so she comfortably left without having to deal with his presence. She had called her youngest chauffeur that morning because she did not feel like driving. He opened the door to the car she felt like going to work in that morning; a flashy red car.“You look extraordinary today Miss Page,” he complemented her."Thank you. New day, new me,” she smiled and got into the car when she took off her sunglasses.Her chauffeur didn't understand her statement fully but brushed it off and closed the door. She rocked an entirely different style that morning. She was on a cream long-sleeved shirt and likewise, a cream loose-fitting high-
