A second Chance with my Billionaire Contract Husband Chapter 58; Abashment
“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

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,"

“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 sighed, “Just drop them upstairs,” she said, instructing the driver to move her and Rowan’s things into the new house. She glanced over to Rowan who was being unhelpful as he leaned on the edge of the car calling someone. She sighed. This morning was their wedding, She had just married this guy, yet he seemed so absent already. then again, she knew nothing about him.This entire marriage was set up by his grandfather who provided This house as well.Rowan finally ended his call., looking distinctly unhappy, “I can do this myself.” He said to the driver as he took one of his bags and dragged it inside.Page followed Roran inside, annoyed. "Fine, this is a marriage of convenience, and I know your grandfather forced you, but why do you have to act like this?."Rowan stopped in his tracks, his jaw tightening. "I'm already annoyed enough as it is. I don’t know why my Grandfather feels like he has to control every inch of my life.If not for his threat to remove me from the company…

After some time, Page stood up, She made her way upstairs to unpack her things, admiring the neat hallway upstairs as she walked. “Mr cannon does have taste.’ She said to herself. If she was going to live in misery, at least she had such a nice house to do it inShe made her way to the master bedroom, It was time for her to unpack her things. She opened the door to meet all her things not in the room.The master bedroom was a sanctuary of elegance and comfort, tastefully decorated with an eye for luxury. Soft, ambient lighting bathed the room in a warm glow, highlighting the rich, dark wood furniture and the plush, king-sized bed draped in crisp, white linens. The bed, with its tufted headboard and an array of decorative pillows, beckoned invitingly. Yet the only thing on the bed was the clothes Rowan wore yesterday neatly folded.It was very obvious that this was meant to be a shared bedroom for a newlywed couple, so where was all her stuff.Rowan's belongings- His large suitcases

“Where have you been? I was worried sick,” she said, trying to keep her voice steady.“I had some business to take care of,” he explained, avoiding her eyes as he spoke.Page took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. “I tried calling you. Your phone was on Do Not Disturb.”Rowan sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I needed some time alone, Page.”Page went on, completely ignoring him again. “You should have called me to say you would be late.”“And why should I?” he asked so coldly.“Of course, you should,” she said, her voice softening. “Why even ask that?”He looked at her then, really looked at her, and for a moment, she saw something in his eyes—but it wasn’t there the next second, only annoyance. “Did I not make it clear enough yesterday? You and I have nothing to do with each other. So just stay out of my way.”Page stared at him, hurt written all over her face. Rowan stretched his neck and adjusted his tie, his head tilted just enough for him to spot the covered plate

Page exited the Greencoves headquarters building, She smiled, it was such a nice day. The weekly meeting for the Directors of Greencoves Conglomerate had just ended and it went rather smoothly with everyone unanimously supporting her proposal.Satisfied, Page was leaving the building for her appointment at her dance class- one of her hobbies. As she approached her car, the security man at the entrance wished her well.“Have a great day, Ms. Brooks!”“Thank you, John,” she replied warmly. “You too”Page slipped into her car, still smiling. As she reached for her wallet to give John a tip, her fingers brushed against something cold and metallic. She pulled out her wedding ring, its surface catching the sunlight. Memories rushed back—Rowan’s departure, the endless days of waiting, and the eventual realization that he wasn’t coming back.Page had stopped waiting for him after three months and had taken off her ring after seven. There was no point in wearing a useless symbol, she had told

On getting to the door of her room, Page slowed down and took in deep, haggard breaths before walking in. She sighed quietly then, began advancing towards her vanity. Setting down on it her phone and amethyst coloured purse which was gifted to her by her grandad a year ago on her birthday, she proceeded to slip off her cloths, piece after piece and willed her mind to waltz through her not so long encounter with Rowan.Withdrawing from her thoughts and shaking her head rather too fast, she shivered and goosebumps could be seen surfacing on her skin, making her wear an irked expression.“What was that?" She scoffed, asking no one in particular.“Why is he suddenly behaving as though he cares after making it abundantly clear that he wants nothing to do with me?" She continued as she folded her right hand, putting her left one over it and placing her chin in between her index and middle finger.The kissing of her teeth with her tongue sounded lightly across the room and one could tell tha

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-
