Chasing His Contracted Wife Bad friend
She couldn’t visit her mother for now until she has recovered fully, that was what Evans told her when she said she wanted to see her mother. Arielle could not ask for someone to bring her mother over too because like her, her mother was sick and should not be moved. She also did not want her mother to see her in the condition she was in right now she got scared. She was grateful that Mariam had not told her mother that she was involved in an accident and was just helping her look after her mother and even lied to her mother that she landed a big shoot that made her too busy to visit.Suddenly remembering her friend, Ariella asked, “What about Hannah? She has not come to visit me,”Arielle did not notice the way Kelvin, Mariam and Gladys stiffened when she asked about Hannah. She was oblivious to their reaction and when none of them answered her fast enough, she asked again.“You know that Hannah is a top model, she is so busy with her job,” Mariam was the one who responded but after
Chasing His Contracted Wife Not in the hospital
“Did it really happen?” Kelvin asked Mariam some hours later when Ariella was fast asleep and Mariam had returned to the room, “The thing you said about Hannah pretending to take care of Ariella after an accident but what she was really doing was using Ariella to chase clout,”Mariam sighed as she moved to sit beside him, “It really happened but Ariella did not see it as such a bad thing. In her own words “it was not such a bad thing. They were friends and if Hannah needed the publicity, she did not mind Hannah using her to get it” It was a period where someone accused Hannah of being a bully and a bad friend. Ariella and I had a little fight about it and did not speak for over a month. Everyone was praising Hannah for having a poor friend and standing by her when she was ill.” Mariam snickered.Kelvin shook his head as he wondered the type of spell Hannah must have used on both him and Ariella that they never saw her true color until the very last minute when too much damage had been
Chasing His Contracted Wife Underground hospital
Ariella’s eyes were darting around as she struggled to get up from the wheelchair. Kelvin did not give her the opportunity, he clamped his hands on her shoulders and gently shoved her back into the wheelchair before circling to kneel in front of her. “Hey, Ariella, look at me,” he called her in a soft voice, but she ignored him and continued to look around, her body stiff with panic. “Ariella,” he called again, his voice higher this time as he placed his hands on her cheeks to guide her face so she was strong at him. “We were actually in an underground hospital or no, something that looks like a hospital. Where am I? Where is Mariam?” Ariella asked, her shaky voice betraying her fear. “Why did you not take me to a real hospital? Why do you have an underground hospital? What is it for?” “You have to calm down and hear me out. You do not have to be scared. We actually placed you there because you needed protection.” “Protection? Protection from whom?” Ariella snapped but when Kelvin
Chasing His Contracted Wife Hannah must have me
“Take out your phone and search who Hannah’s boyfriend is,” Kelvin told Ariella after a few minutes of silence between them. A frown appeared on Ariella’s face, “Why? What has Hannah’s boyfriend got to do with you telling me about the memory of two years that I lost?” “Just do it. You wanted an explanation for all of this? This is me giving you the explanation,” Even if Ariella did not know where he was going with what he was asking her to do, she opened her phone, turned on her data and quickly searched for who Hannah’s boyfriend was. Her eyes widened in shock when instead of another man, Kelvin’s picture came up on the search. She thought maybe she was seeing things so she clicked on a video there and watched it. The video was of Kelvin walking with Hannah on a red carpet. Her fans began to chant for them to kiss, and they stopped in the middle of the red carpet and gave themselves a deep kiss to the excitement of their shippers. The phone dropped from Ariella’s hand to the bed
Chasing His Contracted Wife Husband and wife
“You did not come to my room that night because you wanted to or because you were trying to snatch me from Hannah. You came to me that night not knowing who I was and because Hannah sent you,”Okay, now her head was blank. “Please explain what you mean,”“You were having a shoot that day and your mothers doctor called to say that your mother’s condition was critical and you needed to bring the money for the surgery and if you delayed, your mother might die. You did not have the money completely so you went to Hannah since she was your friend and was richer than you. You asked her to lend you the money but she gave you some excuses about how her bank was not working properly that day. Then she told you that since you needed the money urgently and your mother’s life was on the line, she had a job you could do, a job that would give you the money you want that night.”“What job could that possibly be?” What job would give her a huge amount of money to pay for her mother’s surgery quickl
Chasing His Contracted Wife Why did we get married?
Ariella felt like she was hearing things. Her eyes betrayed her disbelief, “What did you just say?”“We are husband and wife, Ariella. We got married," Kelvin said slowly this time so that his words would sink into her head.Ariella was shaking her head before he was done, “Hell no, you do not mean that. Mariam said you are my boyfriend,” He must be joking right? He was trying to pull her legs and make light of the situation.“And she also said that I was more than just your boyfriend,”“And that means that you are my baby’s daddy. The father of my child,” Ariella told him in a firm voice.Kelvin gave her a small teasing smile as he released his hold on her hand and stood up from the bed. Kelvin could not understand why he was enjoying her reaction to the fact he just told her about them being married. She looked adorable with her fierce gaze as she argued.“Give me a few minutes. I need to pick something from my room,” Kelvin told her once he was at the door.“What is that?” Ariell
Chasing His Contracted Wife Lost in thoughts
When Ariella woke up hours later, it was late already and just as he had promised, Kelvin was in the room with her.He was standing and staring out of the window with his hands shoved in the pocket of his blue washed out jeans.“Hey,” Ariella called as she slowly rose to a sitting position on the bed. She pushed her hair out of her face in annoyance, but it immediately came back to block her eyes. Ariella growled in anger as she stood up and went in search of a band to hold her hair in a high ponytail.When she was done, she sighed and looked back at Kelvin who was still lost in thought and had not heard when she called out to him. Ariella walked up to stand beside him as she folded her arms on her chest to stare out of the window too so that she could see what was so interesting that he was staring at with rapt attention, but apart from an open piece of concrete floor with some flower vases arranged in order on them, she saw nothing else. Ariella wrinkled her face in a frown before
Chasing His Contracted Wife What have you told her?
“Sorry about that,” Kelvin apologized as he cleared his throat and tore his eyes away from the tempting sight in front of him.“Are you sure you are okay? You are acting weird,” Ariella told him as she moved to clean herself and rummage around in her closet for something comfortable to change into.“I’m good. It is just some business deal I’m trying to close,” Kelvin lied through his teeth. He could not possibly tell her that it was because of her he was acting the way he was. First, it was how to tell her that her mother was gone forever. He was not even done with that, she walked out in a towel.“It is a very important deal, huh?” She called from inside the closet, her voice was muffled.“Yeah,”“You can leave to attend to it since it is very important,”“It is important but don’t worry about it, Jerome will be attending to it until I need to go to work tomorrow,”“Alright, if you say so,” Ariella was relieved when she woke up and saw that he was still in the room with her. She was

“So how was it?” Mariam's excited voice came from the other end of the phone. “How did the dinner go?”“Uhm, everything went well,” There was a voice in Ariella’s head asking her to tell Mariam everything that happened during the dinner with Kelvin’s family but another voice was asking her to say nothing. Mariam would hate Kelvin and since Marin was someone who hated pretending, Kelvin would begin to suspect that something was wrong. She did not want him to know that she knew everything he was doing.

She was contemplating if she should do what was on her mind or if she should try to find a new hobby so she won’t be bored out of her mind.Being home and alone have made her thoughts run wild. She realized that there was nothing she liked doing in her free time and that was mostly because she’s never had free time since her father died.When her father was alive, she hung out with her friends but the said friends now wanted nothing to do with her, not after they nearly got in trouble a couple of times because of her.She could not really blame them.

Chasing His Contracted Wife His black card
Kelvin shoved his hand inside the breast pocket of his suit and produced a black card which he stretched out to her. “What? What’s that?” Ariana croaked out, staring at the black card that was lying on his palm as if she did not know what it was. “It is my card. You can use it to get anything you want while I’m away,” “I can leave the house?” Arielle asked, still staring at the card. “Why?” Kelvin asked in surprise, “I’ve never stopped you before,” “But…” Yeah, right. He has never stopped her from going out before but she would like to think that he would stop her now after that accident. Was he not supposed to be scared that something bad could happen to both her and the baby? Seems like she was deluding herself when she thought that he cared about the baby. Maybe… no, she was not going to think about anything. “But what?” He asked with raised brows. “Uhn… nothing,” Arielle shook her head. Kelvin stared at her for a few minutes as if hoping she would change her mind and

Her action made the smile on Kelvin’s face increase.It did not use to be like this

Chasing His Contracted Wife She is generally a bitch

Chasing His Contracted Wife Her position is better than yours
After using the toilet which was a little hard for Ariella to find even after the whole directions Gladys gave to her, she sighed in relief and stepped out to wash her hand. She has been holding back her pee since she got here and the whole issue from Judy and Jade just made everything worse.As she was washing her hand, she heard the bathroom door opening and raised her head and stared into the mirror to see who was behind her. She cursed in her head when she saw who was walking inside and she immediately had a flashback of when she was in the bathroom of that hotel abroad and Hannah walked in. She just knew that Jade being here was bad.Ariella looked down and washed her hand properly before reaching out to wipe her hand with toilet paper.“You know, Kelvin would never fall in love with you,” Jade said as she came to stand beside Ariella. “I do not care about how you managed to climb onto his bed and get yourself pregnant but Kelvin will never settle for someone like you when he onc
Chasing His Contracted Wife News gets out
The way everybody’s character was taking a three sixty degrees turn was giving Ariella a whiplash. First it was Judy who was acting nice then later turning into a vicious snake and now, it was Kelvin who had been acting like he was not there but was now defending her.“I asked you to get out, Jade,” Kelvin said again, his voice was calm but Ariella could hear the underlying anger.“You can’t send her away,” Judy snapped.“Oh yes, I can and I’m asking her to leave now,” Kelvin took his eyes from Judy and placed them on Jade who flinched and ducked her head in fear.She reached out with shaky hands and clutched her mother’s hand, “Mommy,” Judy turned to Alexander, her face red with anger, “Dad, better do something,”“Jade should leave. This meeting was supposed to be for the adults only but I let her stay because I thought she would be reasonable and would comport herself, I thought wrong.” “What is wrong in what she has said? She is just trying to make us know the type of person we
Chasing His Contracted Wife Mother must be proud
“So how far along are you, Ariella?” Alexander, Kelvin’s grandfather asked once they were all seated and ready to have dinner.“Ehh, six months,” Ariella answered with a small smile on her face.Alexander beamed at her, “That’s wonderful. In a few more months we will be getting a mini version of Kelvin. How I wish that my son, Kelvin’s father, Hunter was here to see his first grandchild but no, someone just had to kill him off at such a young age,”If Ariella noticed the way Gladys and Kelvin stiffened beside her, she said nothing and acted like she did not notice anything.Everything was moving well so far. Kelvin’s family was cool. His two uncles and his auntie were here and they have been nice to her so far. Kelvin’s aunty’s first daughter, Jade was here too but she has not said a word.
