BOUND BY CONTRACT Chapter 55
Candice marched down the hallway towards Jonathan's office, her fury evident in every step. Her hands clenched the document tighter, her fierce expression suggesting she was ready to punch someone. Everyone she passed quickly stepped aside, fearful of a repeat of her previous outbursts. The tension in the air was palpable, and no one dared utter a word, hoping to avoid becoming the target of her wrath."You can't do this, Jonathan! You promised me!" Candice cried desperately, barging into Jonathan's office. Her voice trembled with emotion, echoing off the sterile walls. Jonathan, however, remained indifferent, his eyes fixed on the stack of papers before him, his pen moving methodically. He didn't even flinch at her outburst, continuing his work as if she weren't there, as if her pleas were nothing more than the distant hum of an annoying appliance. Her desperation hung in the air, heavy and palpable, but it was clear that Jonathan had steeled himself against her, determined to ignore

Feeling bored as Eloisa changed our itinerary, and surprisingly, Madam Celeste agreed to her decision for the first time. This unexpected shift disrupted our plans and drained the excitement I had for the day. Usually, Madam Celeste is firm about sticking to the schedule, so her sudden compliance with Eloisa's suggestion left me disorientedCeleste made a decision not to let Elosa step foot in this city again but it's inevitable. Lost in my thoughts, the sudden ring of the doorbell jolted me, nearly sending me leaping from my seat in surprise."Who would bother to visit me here!" I whined walking to the door lazily to open. "What-!" I couldn't finish my words as I caught sight of my unexpected guests. Before I could react, he tumbled onto me."Are you drunk?" I asked, steadying him as he swayed unsteadily on his feet. His breath reeked of alcohol, and his eyes struggled to focus on me. I could feel the weight of his body leaning heavily against mine, his knees buckling slightly with

"If you came here because of Candice, you better leave!" Jonathan's words rang inside his office while he was engrossed in his paperwork. He didn't even wait for us to be settled, as if he was expecting me to come over. The atmosphere was tense, the air thick with unspoken grievances, and his sharp tone left no room for negotiation. I could feel the weight of his displeasure, and it was clear that any mention of Candice was a sore point, one that had already frayed the fragile thread of his patience."It seems your problems were extraordinary and beyond unfixable." I said, walking inside even though he didn't welcome me. I was once free to come here and even set his table with his itineraries. The Sykes Group of Companies had expanded significantly, yet he still chose to stay in this modest office, despite being offered a more spacious one where he could almost live.He raised his head and stopped what he was doing, staring at me for a few minutes. A heavy sigh escaped his lips as he

"Ooh!" I yawned lazily, reluctantly waking up to the sound of a desperate knock at the door. Attempting to rise, I found myself trapped under something heavy resting on my thighs. Panic surged as I jolted awake, scanning the room in terror. A relieved sigh escaped my lips as I realized it was only Fabian lying beside me, peacefully asleep."So, we were together last night," I mumbled, slowly lifting his legs, when the desperate knock grew louder, abruptly shattering my reverie. "Fuck!" I hissed, annoyed, accidentally waking up Fabian."Why are you awake? Please sleep, Izzy," he mumbled, gently pulling me back down onto the soft sheets and putting back his thighs on me. I couldn't move snuggle onto him and let him be when the impatient guest outside began banging on the doorbell and pounding on our door. Even Fabian woke up frowning. I shook my head in disbelief. I wasn't expecting anyone and my brother certainly didn't usually knock like that. The interruption was unwelcome, disruptin
BOUND BY CONTRACT Chapter 59 Celeste's Surprised Visit
"Maya please cancel my appointments today. I have an important matter to settle." I uttered when the door opened thinking it was my secretary. I couldn't sweep the reality in my mind that when she left Newton it would be the last. Thinking of this makes me cringe and horrified. "Sir!" Maya replied."I just have an important meeting to settle outside the city. Just for today Maya!" I repeated, my voice tinged with urgency. When I didn't hear her footsteps, I halted what I was doing and lifted my head, only to find Celeste Martin standing there, looking bemused. I was momentarily frozen, then slowly made my way over to her, my surprise evident. Encountering her like this, without any prior arrangement, was unsettling. I wasn't someone she typically met at random hours and to see her here must be important. "Good afternoon Miss Martin. What a pleasure do I owe you today?" I acknowledge her presence. "Good Afternoon! Not so grand Mister Montero but a few minutes of your time will suff

It's been a month since we arrived in this city yet Denise is still on hold. I'm just waiting for what will she do next but if she will, my daughter will still be mine and not him. I thought she just wanted to manipulate me but I confirmed she was my daughter. I almost killed my own flesh and if that happens, I will make sure Denise or Kate will pay the damages. "Where is she?" I asked Kaito. "She was cooking!" Kaito relied. "What? Check what she is cooking! Who knows what she will put in it," I instructed him, my trust in her shattered. While she had saved Yumi by claiming she was my daughter, her deceit needed addressing to prevent a repeat occurrence. "Never mind, bring Yumi we should eat outside and have fun." I changed my mind. She is just five years old and I need to fill in her mind that I am his father and not that man. It's better late than never! She's smart and can understand. For the few days she was with me I started to like her and love how adorable she was. I neve

Not comfortable to sit and wait for them to come back. I pack some essentials before running out of the house. He did not forbid me to leave the house yet but I couldn't bring my daughter with me. I guess this is the punishment for being impulsive and arrogant before. I had the best life with him, yet I betrayed him without thinking. The anticipation of his punishment looms over me, filling me with dread, as he has yet to decide my fate. The only solace I find is the certainty that he will not harm my daughter. But if Fabian discovers that I lied to him as well, I shudder to imagine the consequences. All my efforts and sacrifices would be for nothing, and I am not prepared to face that reality yet unless I take drastic measures— killing Hiro. As expected he brought Yumi to the mall where she always wished to go every time we came out. I don't have any choice but to watch them afar until an unexpected scene unfolds. I was terrified at first but the next moment I was damn flabbe

"Where are you going? Don't you know we are going to visit the branch today before the launch, and you have a board meeting?" I asked, watching Fabian grab his things in a hurry. He seemed like he was about to miss an important meeting or a flight, his actions frantic and rushed. "To the airport, because of Denise I almost forgot my flight." He replied annoyed. "Airport? What and why will you go to the airport when we have an important itinerary today!" I asked confused checking his schedules in my hands. "What the fuck again Fabian. Cleared schedule for a week for a business meeting. Damn it, Fabian, since when do you care about the itineraries I fix for you? These are selected and very important!" I whined, unable to believe he had arranged a one-week business trip and cleared his schedule again without telling me. "You can't do this Fabian and you know that!" I groaned looking at him. "I know Mark, and I have full faith in your ability to make this scheduled move happen by the

Izzy Pov... I couldn't stop smiling as I reminisced about the moments we shared with Fabian. Those memories are priceless, and they remain vivid in my mind. I'm excited to return with my daughter this time. Now that he knows, there's no hiding her. It was too soon and unexpected, yet the result was great. Seeing Emily giggle and smile with joy was paramount though I was caught off guard. My sister startled me as she entered my room. "What are you reading that's making you smile so contagiously?" she asked. "I'm not reading!" I responded. She looked at me, confused, with a frown. "I want to go with you. Grandma agreed. " She informed. I know she will as secrets were already out of the bag. "Right!" We were talking and planning for my next trip with my daughter when the latest family photo we had taken at the park fell on the ground shattering into pieces. We were both startled and scared looking at the pieces of the glass all over the floor. She looked at me, and suddenly, I f

BOUND BY CONTRACT Chapter 66 Emily Montero
I was determined to punish Eloisa for hiding my daughter for five long years while raising another person's child but my heart screamed no. The entire time, I was speechless, trying to stay calm and not let my anger escalate. I was furious that I had missed all of my daughter's birthdays while managing to make Yumi's birthdays fancy and special. It hurt deeply, knowing that even though Eloisa and her family could make my daughter's birthdays lavish, I still wasn't there to share those moments with her.Eloisa, you taught me to love you dearly, only to leave me when I needed you most. If you just told me or asked me, I wouldn't have thought twice to tell you. I muttered these thoughts to myself while choosing the best clothes to wear. Meeting her now feels just like meeting you before. My heart races rapidly, and I can't think rationally. Thinking of them suddenly put a smile on my face. It was unexpected yet comforting. After the chaotic life I had there, this was the best I c

Third Persons Pov... "You can't just take Yumi from me, Hiro, and you know that!" Denise cried, fighting desperately for her rights. Her voice trembled with emotion, but Hiro had already made up his mind, his expression unwavering. That's not part of his plan yet circumstances give him the better solution. "Why not? You are not capable of raising a child. You are delusional and insane." Hiro exclaimed couldn't handle the rage in his heart. Whatever her reasons for leaving Hiro despite her knowing she was pregnant was another hell of a story to tell. "I am and you just ruined everything." she protested still thinking she could get Fabian."You ruined your life when you left and chose to marry him, using my daughter, but you are not aware he knew your scheme. You are delusional, thinking your high school lover will still cling to you and forget that you are a homewrecker and crazy." Hiro emphasizes. She frowned, confused, trying to grasp what he just said."You are surprised I know y

Seeing Fabian in the lobby clouded my mind with mixed emotions. I didn't know what to say and couldn't bring myself to look at him. I know he is disappointed in me and his silence proves it all. I had expected him to lash out or question my intentions, but he remained mum, and his quiet demeanor terrified me more than any outburst could have,I'm biting my nails anxiously, waiting for him to come in. The sound of the doorknob turning and the door opening and closing signaled that he was in, yet he remained silent. I don't know how to start a conversation with him. The fierceness I always wear suddenly vanished in front of him. I slowly turned around to face him, he stood there looking at me with mixed emotions. "I'm sorry!" I managed to say fidgeting with my fingers."Sorry! Is this enough words to explain everything? Tell me, Eloisa, because I don't understand," he finally speaks. The use of my name, Eloisa, sent shivers down my spine bitterly. He never calls me Eloisa, and fo

"Wow!" I exclaimed upon arriving in their city, struck by its breathtaking beauty. It's no surprise Izzy would love to stay here—it's a place that rejuvenates your soul day and night. The bustling city offers stunning scenery at every turn, and its coffee shops are dynamically friendly, serving up delicious drinks that add to the charm of this enchanting place."I love this place!" I unknowingly uttered, still admiring the beauty that surrounded me. The serene landscape, bathed in hues of golden sunlight, cast a tranquil spell over my senses. Each detail, from the gentle sway of the trees to the distant call of birds, painted a picture of pure bliss. Time seemed to stand still, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the sheer wonder of the place. After drinking my coffee, I headed straight to my suite for the week. I had already researched where to find her, but first, I needed to meet her grandmother. Since that day, I couldn't find peace of mind, feeling a mix of confusion and exci
