Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Ex Chapter 24
ONIKA'S POVAs soon as we walked into the restaurant that night, I found myself staring around the interior of the restaurant.Everything about it screamed of money, from the gold tables to the waiters dressed in tuxedos, the air around seemed to scream of an atmosphere where only the rich could afford but I could only think of one thing.He had never brought me here.We were led to our reserved table in a VIP booth and Nathan quickly tried to pull out my chair but I beat him to it and quickly pulled out the chair myself, seating myself.He didn't voice out his disapproval at that but his smile seemed forced as he sat across me and folded his hands. “We're in public, you know how the rules are”I did indeed know how the rules were and I knew I had to calm myself down if I wanted to play by the rules of the contract. “You're right… I'm sorry” I flashed a huge smile at him.From outside the booth, no one would hear what we were saying but they would see our smiles at least and believe t

NATHAN'S POVSomething that seemed like surprise flashed in her eyes before being replaced by indifference but that small change in her expression had warmed up my heart.This was definitely worth every second.I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt and nodded to her to do the same. With a disgruntled sigh which contratsed sharply with the excitement in her eyes, she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, her hands trembling as she got out of the car before me.“Wait up…” I chuckled to myself as I got out of the car too before going around the car to stand by her, looking at the eager look in her eyes.“When last did you stargaze?” I found myself asking out of curiosity.When we had dated, we had gone stargazing a couple of times but she looked like she hadn't done this in a while which had gotten me curious.She wasn't paying me any attention and her reply was just a monotone. “ I haven't come for stargazing in years. I never had the time and I guess I just didn't want to” She said truthfully as s

ONIKA'S POVThe alarm was ringing but I didn't want to get up.“Shut up…” I groaned as I rolled unto my side while blindly reaching for my alarm on the beside table before hitting the snooze button repeatedly.Finally.With a slight groan, I rolled unto my back again and tried to open my eyes. When I finally opened my eyes, I had to use my hand to block the sunlight from the open windows from filtering into my eyes.Why couldn't morning take a little longer to show it's freaking self? I was definitely not a morning person today, I felt tired and my body ached like I had run a marathon yesterday.As I struggled to sit up with a grumble, I looked around my surroundings trying to understand what I was even supposed to do. I was as clueless as ever this morning and I scratched the back of my neck when suddenly there was a knock on the door.“Onika?” A voice from the door sounded.“Come in” I said without thinking, a loud yawn escaping my lips as the door opened. As soon as the door opene

ONIKA'S POV Nathan and I didn't say anything for a split second, I wasn't even breathing because, technically, the contract would allow him to kiss me because it was mandatory.The photographer seemed to notice our hesitation, and he looked at us in confusion l. “What's wrong? Do you need a rest?” He asked, his tone worried. “This is the last picture, I promise,” he quickly added.That's when I felt Nathan's hand around my waist, gently pulling me to face him, and in my head, the only thing I could think was that he would kiss me without a second thought.I was tempted to knee him in the groin and claim it was a mistake just so that I could disrupt the shoot but I reined in the anger just as Nathan leaned in closer, his mouth by my ear, his hand tightening around my waist.“I want to know, are you comfortable with it?” He asked, his voice soft.Was I comfortable with it? Was that even a question? Of course, I wasn't comfortable with it.“No, I am not” I whispered, my voice an indigna

ONIKA'S POVI quickly switched off the lights of my phone when I heard Nathan's voice.“What's that? You look pale and worried” He pointed out, his tone also worried.“I'm fine” I said through gritted teeth, my hand gripping my phone tightly.He looked ready to press further as he adjusted his body to look at me. “Babe, what happened?”I scowled at him, not liking the endearment. “Watch it, Nathan, you're this close to pissing me off” I hissed at him, my voice cold.I had been overlooking everything that he had been saying and doing but now I was already at my limits and I just wanted to remind him of his place.His face fell slightly and he looked frozen like I had said something that hurt him. Good.“Did I hurt your feelings?” I said in a mocking tone, my face scrunched up in a pout before I scowled at him. “Doesn't feel too good, does it? Stay out of my business, Nathan” I warned.He leaned back in his seat, his expression now void of emotions. “Sure as you please” He said, his ton

ONIKA'S POV Kent excused himself a while later and said he would check up on me again in the night so I concentrated on my work. Just when it was getting to 8pm, my secretary came in, her auburn hair pulled into a tight bun. “Miss Orion” She said, smiling brightly as was her usual work ethic. I was checking through the financial reports of the company after that last exhibition but I looked up at her, my eyes heavy with exhaustion. “Yes, Amara?” I inquired, wondering what she wanted. She dropped the files she was holding on the table and I eyed it suspiciously before I pulled it closer to myself, opening it up to see a few documents for the ownership of my paintings that were auctioned off. “Have the new owners been given?” I asked, confused as to why I still had the ownership documents of this particular painting. “Yes, the other owners have been given theirs and their newly acquired paintings have been sent to them which they have received” She explained professionally.

NATHAN'S POV It was already dark out and I realized that I should be getting home already. The office was closed for the day and I was still reviewing the documents that the shareholders had given me to go through. As I leaned back in my chair, my phone beeped and I saw a message from Damien. “On our way home, sir,” It read. I sighed heavily, putting my phone down before rubbing a hand on my face. At least now I could be sure of her safety when I wasn't with her. I had to do a lot to get the man to work for me. He was a highly sought-after bodyguard anyway after he left the special forces. I knew that I could trust Onika with him; he was also a very loyal person to his clients, according to the background check I did on him. There was a sudden rap on the door and I looked up from my work, wondering who was coming to my office at this time of the night. There were a few workers left in the building by this time so maybe there was a report or something. I stood up and pushed my

ONIKA'S POVThroughout the drive home, I couldn't stop stealing glances at the bike that Damien was riding alongside my car.Apparently he was not to be riding in the car with me but following me about like a stalker.Nice one Nathan.When I took a look at Damien, I knew he was just in his early 30s judging by the still youthful face despite the way he seemed to frown most of the times.When I pulled up in front of the house, he also stopped his bike right beside my car, quickly unmounting his motorcycle before opening my car door for me.“Thank you” I muttered, not sure what else I was supposed to say.He nodded and straightened up. “You may go back inside for the night. Good night” he said not bothering to look at me.Typical.I bade him a small goodbye before walking into the house. If I was gonna be stuck here for a while with him, I had to least get along with him even if he looked like he would rather not be here at all.I was beginning to wonder why he was, there was nothing el

Onika's POV "Let's leave this place" I said to Nathan feeling nauseous after see so much blood. I still can't believe that Gina killed herself just like that. Even though she made my life a living hell from the beginning, I was still willing to forgive her but she ended her own life just to escape prison. I feel like I'm the one to blame for this. Nathan held my hand in a comforting manner "it's not your fault Onika she brought it upon herself" he said leading me out of the hospital. Nathan drove us back to the house in silence, he seems to be contemplating on what to say. "How are you feeling now?" I asked smiling a bit.

Onika's POV I braced myself for death.Tears streamed down my face as I waited for the gunshot that would end my life. My chest tightened, my breaths coming in shallow gasps. My child... they wouldn’t get to see the world, to take their first breath, to feel my love.It was heartbreaking.I squeezed my eyes shut.But the bullet never came.“What the hell?” Gina's voice dripped with rage.My eyelids fluttered open, and through my blurry vision, I saw her shaking the gun, pulling the trigger repeatedly. Nothing happened.The gun was empty.A dry laugh escaped my lips before I could stop it.Gina’s furious gaze snapped toward me, and for a split second, I saw something else beneath her anger, panic. She hadn’t expected this.Her face twisted, and before I could react, she struck me hard across the face.Pain exploded in my skull, my head snapping to the side. Blood filled my mouth, the sharp metallic taste making me gag. I gasped, blinking through the ringing in my ears.“Just wait, Oni
