Dear Contract Wife, You Are Mine 19
Maybelline Walter POV 'Are you in love with Miles?' Those words replayed in my head for the umpteenth time as I sat on the edge of my bed. Those words had been living rent-free in my head all day, and all efforts to stop thinking about it had proven abortive."He is not your style, May. Lily is just being crazy," I reminded myself before I left for the bathroom to shower and go downstairs for dinner.After I was done bathing and changing into something convenient, I went to the dining room."Miles is not back yet?" I asked Adelie when I got to the dining room."Good evening, ma'am. No, Mr. Miles is not back yet," She replied to me, and I slowly nodded as I took a seat at the dining table."Where is he?" I mumbled, a bit worried about him. He hasn't been home after he left earlier, so it was fine for me to be worried about him, yeah?"Are you ok, ma'am?" Adelie's voice pulled me out of my deep thoughts, and I nodded as I looked at her."Hmm. I'm fine," I forced a smile at her. Further

Maybelline Walter POV"May... Can we talk, please?" Miles knocked on the door for the second time, but I remained silent. No way I was going to open the door for him after everything he had done to me.I heard him sigh."I'm sorry about yesterday... I didn't know you were going to wait up for me. I didn't mean to hurt you. Something came up and I had to stay back and handle it. I'm really sorry," He spoke from outside, but I just rolled my eyes."Go away, Miles. I don't need your explanation," "I'm sorry, wife... I would never do something to hurt you. Can you please open the door?" He pleaded again, and this time, I finally stood up from the floor and pulled the door open."You are crying?" He raised one of his eyebrows surprisingly, but I quickly wiped my tears and turned my face away embarrassingly."I wasn't crying," I mumbled."I'm sorry, okay?" He cupped my cheek in his palm and stared into my eyes. His eyes were so charming and sexy that I could only wish to stare for long if

Maybelline Walter POV"Grrrrr! Grrrrr!" Came the blaring sound of my alarm that jolted me out of my deep sleep, and I tossed on the bed tiredly. I was so tired that I wanted nothing at that moment more than to stay glued to the bed all day and sleep my ass off, but I had to get off the bed and make breakfast since Adelie was gone for a while.It was supposed to be a beautiful Monday morning, but nothing felt beautiful. Not when I had to wake up so early.I couldn't help the smile that laced up my lips as I rubbed my hand on my stomach after I sat up on the bed. "Good morning morning, sweetheart. Did you sleep well?" I whispered to the little one as I smiled heartily before I left the bed to go to the bathroom.It was past 6am by the time I was done with everything, so I left for the kitchen to make breakfast.However, the aroma that welcomed me as I arrived at the living room had me asking myself who could be in the kitchen. Giving in to my curiosity, I went into the kitchen, and ala

Miles glanced at May for the umpteenth time, unable to concentrate on work no matter how much he tried to. Having this woman around him had become a therapy he never knew he needed all these years. She was everything cute, his peace of mind lies in her. She was everything he ever wanted in a woman."Am I just going to sit here and do nothing?" May asked, pulling him back to reality, and he turned his face away."Yes. You can take a walk around if you become bored," He replied to her, and she briefly sighed. This was no different from staying in that boring house all day."You don't have any files you want to sort out?" She asked as she stood from the sofa where she was seated, and went to sit on the chair across from him."I can help with that," She further said."No, I don't. If you are bored, you can take a walk around the company," He replied to her, and she nodded. Silence crept into the atmosphere and Miles was busy working that he didn't spare her a glance. He was doing his bes
Dear Contract Wife, You Are Mine 23
Maybelline Walter POV I glared hard at Miles and scoffed silently for the umpteenth time. How could he act like nothing happened? "I shouldn't have come here in the first place," I mumbled and rolled my eyes sarcastically. He was so engrossed in his computer like it meant the whole world to him. Wait! Miles really prioritized his work over every other thing, so it meant the whole world to him, apparently."Are you ok?" He asked when he looked in my direction and our eyes met."I'm fine," I replied to him bluntly and turned my face away, and I heard him sigh."Is it about what happened earlier?" He asked as he turned his full attention to me this time."What? That? No... I'm fine," I tried to be fine even though my tone was evidence that I was not fine."Hmm," I had expected him to try to convince me to talk to him, but I was disappointed when he just nodded his head and turned back to what he was doing."You really expect too much from this guy. He is not that nice person. He is not

Lily was so impressed with the lady staring right back at her from the mirror. It was her reflection."I think this is perfect," She muttered as she smacked her lips together after she applied lip gloss. It wasn't her first day resuming work at the hospital, but Miguel was around now and she couldn't afford to look like a mess when going to see her."One more thing," She muttered when she recalled she hadn't worn her perfume yet. Just as she reached for her perfume, her phone started ringing, so she went for her phone first. It was one of her colleagues calling her."Why the disturb this early morning?" She rolled her eyes after she answered the call."Lily, there is an emergency at the hospital. You need to hurry down here to assist Doctor Miguel," Came her colleague's masculine voice."Alright. I'll be there shortly," The call disconnected afterward. Lily didn't have time to spray her perfume again because the life of the patient at the hospital was more important than any other thi

Maybelline Walter POVMy phone rang and when I checked the caller, I realized it was my sweetheart. "Hey, babe. I'll be there with you shortly," I said to Lily on the phone, but her scoff greeted me instead."Don't keep me waiting," She said coldly and the call disconnected immediately.Just one last glance at my reflection in the mirror was all I needed before I left my room and headed outside to meet her. She was leaning against her white jeep outside the gate with a deep frown on her face."What's with that frown? Are you not happy to be here?" I teased her, and she scoffed."You of all people should know that I'm not happy to be here. For goodness sake, why are you married and yet not allowing me to find a man for myself?" She rolled her eyes as she pulled the car door open."Point of correction, I'm not married for real. We are contracted couples," I argued with her."Don't forget you are carrying his child," She reminded me as I hopped inside the car, and I scoffed sarcasticall

Maybelline Walter POV"Liam!" I called surprisingly after I straightened my back and took a step away from him."May?" He called again with a shocked expression on his face. I guess he was as shocked as I was. Liam and I were classmates back in college. We were not just regular classmates, but quite close that you could call us friends. I had a secret crush on him. I mean, who wouldn't crush on the most handsome dude in the whole college?During our third year in college, Liam won an award in school as the most handsome and neatly dressed dude in school. You can imagine the amount of hate and love it must've brought him then, yeah? His handsome face and sharp brain was the only thing he needed to attract ladies to himself and of course, I was not an exemption then, but I had to hold back because he was in a relationship then. We haven't seen each other since graduation from college, and, shockingly, we bumped into each other here."Wow! This is..." He paused and scanned me with his ey

Chapter 46 May POV "Aren't you coming inside? I should offer you juice to take," I bent over the car window once I alighted from the car. Lily had just come to drop me off at the front of the gate. "It's late already. Let's make it some other time. I need to head home early so I can wake up early for work tomorrow," She reminded me, and I nodded. "That's fine. When are we going to see eachother again?" "I don't know yet, but I'll find a way to see you during the week or by the weekend. Bye! And don't forget to make progress with my in-law. Stop being so guarded," I rolled my eyes as I straightened my back. "Bye," She chuckled as she wined up the glass. I turned and headed inside once she drove off. It was already 7:30pm, and everywhere was dark. I was just about to head to the entrance door when my phone started to ring, and I checked to see that the caller was Miles. This was the fifth time he was calling me in thirty minutes, asking where I was. Since I was alread

Chapter 45May POVLily's familiar car approached as I stood in front of the gate, waiting for her to show up and pick me up so we could leave already. She soon pulled over in front of me, then wined down the glass and crooked her neck out with a warm smile on her face."Have I been keeping you and my godchild waiting?""You bet," I rolled my eyes as I walked over to the other side of the car and hopped in the front seat with her."Be careful with that, please. You don't want to hurt my godchild," She gasped sharply and teased me as I struggled with the seatbelt."Thanks for your concern, but shut your mouth," I rolled my eyes at her and relaxed on the chair once I was able to fasten my seatbelt."So, tell me... What did you say you wanted to tell me? I came down here because of that, so don't keep me waiting," She turned her attention to me with an anxious look on her face like she was desperate to hear whatever gist I had for her, and of course, I knew she was desperate for it.

Chapter 44After a long ride, Lilly arrived at the hospital and pulled over at the parking lot."Ugh! Finally! I thought I was never going to get here," She breathed out tiredly as she removed her car keys, tossed it inside her handbag, grabbed the small plastic bag beside her, and stepped out of the car."Hey, Lily. You look good as always," Lily couldn't hide her excitement when he colleague complimented her as soon as she stepped into the hospital."Thank you," She smiled and proceeded to her office."Hey, Lily," One of the male nurses smiled at her as he walked toward her in the opposite direction."Hey, Donald,""Wow! You're looking beautiful as always. Is there any special occasion? You look different," Donald raised his eyebrows after he checked her out. Although she has always been a gorgeous young lady, but she looked really different. Unlike every other days she would go to work with no makeup on, it was different today. Her appearance was evident that she really took her ti

Chapter 43"I know I was too harsh on her, but why would she say that to me?" Miles ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly as he paced restlessly in his room."I mean..." He paused and slumped on his bed, his fingers sinking into his hair."I'm not that bad, am I? Is she just mad at me or am I really not her type?" Thinking about everything she had said to him earlier really hurt no matter how he tried to push it away. "But I already apologized to her that I was sorry for saying those words to her. Why would she be so harsh on me?" He muttered and breathed in and out.'You started it all, Miles. You shouldn't be complaining' His subconscious mind reminded him, and he groaned as he dragged himself up to his feet and dashed out of the room.A few minutes later, Miles was standing in front of the door, contemplating on whether or not to knock on the door. What if she was still mad at him for saying that? What if she really didn't want to see him?'She already paid you back. She

Chapter 42May Walter POV'I'm resigning soon, and I need you to take over my companies as the new CEO' Mr. Williams's words played in my head as I stood at the side of the road, waiting for a cab to take me home. Many questions popped up in my head. Why me? Does he not have other kids? How could he trust me when we just met? Just because I'm his daughter doesn't mean that I'll be good to him, don't you think so?'I will have my driver go drop you off' He had offered earlier, but I declined immediately before I left his house. Maybe I should've agreed to it because it's really difficult to get a cab here since it was close to an estate.My phone beeped, and I hesitantly checked to see that it was a text from him.'Hoping to hear from you soon' I rolled my eyes and kept my phone away after I read through the text.My phone vibrated in my my pocket a few minutes later, and I cursed out silently as I reached for it, thinking it was Mr. Williams calling me yet again, but I quickly swiped

Chapter 41May Walter POV"Wife, I made breakfast. You should come to the dining let's eat together," Miles's voice sounded from outside a few minutes after I stepped out of the bathroom."Alright. I'll be there in a couple of minutes,""I'll be waiting," I heard his receding footsteps afterwards, and I presumed he must've gone back.It's been five days since we did the DNA test thing, and we were supposed to get the result today. For the umpteenth time, I picked up my phone and checked to see if my acclaimed Dad had sent me a text, but he didn't. I was grateful he didn't text me all this while just as I had demanded, but I was nervous since the result will be out today."Don't be nervous, May. You'll get over this," I assured myself and took a deep long breath before I walked out of my room and headed to the dining room to join Miles.My mouth salivated as the aroma of food welcomed me downstairs."You're here... Come have a seat," Miles didn't cease to be the sweet husband that alw

Chapter 40May Walter POVThe sound of the knock on my door from outside caught my attention, and I paused brushing my teeth. I heard the knock a few times before the sound of door opening and closing followed suit. I needed no one to tell me that the person was Miles since he was the only one living here aside from his brother who of course must be at the hospital as usual by this time."Coming..." I found Miles seated on the bed when I walked inside. He stood up and smiled at me."Good morning, wife,""Hmm... Good morning. You are ready for office already? I guess I woke up late," I muttered the last part."How are you feeling now?""I'm much better. Uhm... I'm not going to take much time in the...""You don't have to worry about coming with me to the office today. I got a secretary, and also an assistant, so you can just rest at home since you are not feeling too well," He tucked his hands inside his pockets, looking straight at me."Oh!" I only mouthed, many thoughts flashed throu

Chapter 39"Are you sure she'll be fine, Doc?" Miles asked the doctor for the umpteenth time over the phone."Yes, Mr. Miles. All she need is a good rest, and she'll come out strong,""What about the baby? Are you sure the baby is fine also?""You have nothing to worry about. I would've told you if the baby was not fine, so it's nothing to worry about," He breathed out in relief after the doctor assured him."Thank you so much,""Alright. I got to go now," He breathed out again after the call ended, and sank his fingers into his hair while sitting on the edge of the bed. "What happened to her? Was she assaulted by that bastard again?" Even though the doctor already told him earlier that it wasn't an assault, he still thought maybe it was something of such, especially as Oscar escaped and was no longer under his custody.The sound of his ringing phone disrupted his thoughts, and he quickly reached for it and swiped the answer button when he saw that it was Miguel."Shoot!""Man, I'm a

Chapter 38Maybelline Walter POV"How are you feeling? Are you ok?" Miles held my hand and patted my hair with worries written all over me, but I only nodded. I couldn't bring myself to tell him about what happened. I had no idea how to go about it."Do you want to eat anything?" He squeezed my hand gently."No, I'm fine," I slowly shook my head, and he nodded.An awkward silence assumed the atmosphere. I placed my hand on my stomach, worried about my child. I wished I could see the doctor and probably had a chance to ask him if my baby was fine, but I couldn't."I'll be back shortly. Get some rest," He stood up from the bed and left. A few minutes later, fortunately, the doctor walked inside and I was glad that it wasn't Miguel since it was their hospital I was brought to."How are you feeling now?" He came to stand beside the bed I was lying on, and examined me briefly."I'm fine. How is my baby, doc? Is he fine?" I asked worriedly as I sat up on the bed. He looked at me and smiled.
