CHAPTER 55
"Two people whose brains are wired the same way cannot be together." She deadpanned. "Opposites attract. One of us has to be different."
He didn't agree with her on that but he didn't express his opinion. It was what she thought and if he was being honest, what many people thought. He had thought that way for a while too, thanks to his parents. They were the epitome of fake marriages for business. They did not have an ounce of feelings for each other and having kids had been a duty for them. That was why Charles did not hesitate to start cheating on his wife soon after his marriage. Not that it made him any less of a jerk but there was no love between him and Beth. However, it was different with him and Gemma. He loved her. He had fallen in love with her long before she became a CEO so that would never do anything to change what he felt for her. He wanted to tell her that nothing could come in between them as long as they wanted to be together. It was abouRelated chapters

In the conference room, Gemma tried not to think about Livian. However, that was proving to be harder than the minute. How could she not think about him when the meeting was about him?Sasha, The sales and marketing director of Gem Bliss, was giving a report on the company's performance in the last quarter in respect to her department. She explained the losses they incurred in the first part of the quarter and how towards the end, the sales had shot up like a rocket.According to her analysis, things had turned around after the endorsement by the mysterious model. Livian."My suggestion is that for the next quarter, we should have the same model endorse at least two of our products. If it's possible, we should invite him to sign an exclusive contract with Gem Bliss too.He was already under an exclusive contract. She smiled. However, that was a void contract because the man who signed it did not exist. She would need to sign it again with

Three hours and three orgasms later, Livian set the food on the kitchen island and sat on the opposite side."You're getting better at this." She shovelled a fork of pasta into her mouth and savored the taste. She was not just saying it."Was I that bad?" He laughed dryly. He didn't think it was anything worth commenting on. If she thought it was much better, just how did it taste the first time?She chuckled. "I almost couldn't swallow it."He grabbed her hand and pinched it to punish her, then brought it to her mouth to kiss it. "If I was that bad, why did you still keep me?""I knew there was something you were hiding. I wanted to keep you under my eyes." She confessed, since she knew what he was hiding now.He pressed a hand against his chest, dramatically feigning heartbreak. "Here I was thinking that it's because of my looks."She burst out laughing. "Don't flatter yourself. You are just so-so."

"Fine. Two nights." She conceded and pulled her face away from him. She swallowed as she tried to convince herself that she was agreeing to it because Livian's influence on the market would be worth it, and it had nothing to do with her wanting to be in his bed. She couldn't decieve herself for a second. Her agreeing to be in his bed had nothing to do with the commercial."However, Mr. Dumont," She cleared the nonsense out of her mind to focus on business. "Having the CEO of Gem Bliss in your bed is too much for an anonymous commercial. You will have to show your face.""I was starting to wonder what happened to my Gemma who wouldn't back down without a bargain." He smiled.She smirked in triumph. "I'll take that as a yes. Cora will send you the shooting schedule.""Will you accompany me to the shooting studio?" He asked. When she shook her head, he crossed his arms. "I'm photophobic. I cannot have pictures of me taken in your absence."&nb

She forced herself out of bed. Heaven knew she wanted nothing more than to continue sleeping but she couldn't. This was not her bed and she was the one who had made it clear that she didn't want to be in his bed aside from the two days she had agreed to. Was it too late to take that back?"I'll wash my face and join you." She muttered as she rubbed her eyes."Okay." He said but continued standing in place. She returned from the bathroom a few minutes later, her hair as neat as it was because she made a mess of it earlier and the clothes on her body straightened out. He liked her messy look a little more but there wasn't much difference.In his shirt and boxer briefs, she looked nothing like the workaholic CEO she had become over the years. She was a lot like the little Gem he knew, tame, adorable and lovely. He loved both versions of her but this was easier to coax.He took her hand and led her out of the room."I made a mess of

He wrapped his arms around her and rested her head on his shoulder. Her eyes shut for a second before she forcefully opened them."I want one more." She purred.He leaned down and kissed her lips. Her eyes flew open."I'm not asking for that! Though I could use one of those too." She whined.He smiled and kissed her again, then he carried her in his arms and took her to her room."Let's go to sleep. We can watch as many as we want on Friday night." He promised."Mmh." She hummed."Don't watch them on your own before Friday. We can only watch them together." He instructed, and she hummed again.

She searched around and couldn't find them. She couldn't possibly tear down the closet to look for them because she knew that they wouldn't be there. Could they have accidentally been carried along with his dirty laundry?She slapped her forehead at the thought. What was she thinking, taking off her panties in a man's mansion? He could…Her cheeks flushed when the thought registered itself. He couldn't possibly steal them, right? What would he even do with a woman's underwear? Maybe he needed them to know the size of her underwear when he ordered her clothes. That was what she wanted to think, but she didn't believe a word of it either. Her mind thought back to how deep his voice sounded when he spoke a moment ago. Was he really jerking off in the shower? If he was, were her panties in his hands?She should have felt repulsed at the thought. Creeped out, even. But on the contrary, the thought of him fondling her panties in his hands, probably

"You don't need to worry about anything. You only need to make an appearance and that will be it." He tried to coax her.He made sense but she frowned. "You know that I was not on friendly terms with your family ten years ago. I didn't leave under friendly circumstances either."He laughed at her excuse. "Do you think they would still hold a grudge against you for something that happened so long ago? How childish would that be? Not only was it not worth a grudge, but it was also their fault that you left. I couldn't leave you there and let my mother continue to hit and abuse you, now could I?"When he put it that way, she felt her worries were unfounded. "What if we don't get along?"She knew he was frowning even though she couldn't see him."Gemma, you are married to me, not them. Why are you worried so much about their opinion? I only want you to meet them to confirm that the rumors they have heard are true. I wasn't planning
Evil Contract Wife CHAPTER 63
"Did you miss me?" He taunted.Her body went limp and she would have collapsed if she didn't have the wall to support her. It was him! It was definitely him!"What? Are you afraid of facing me?" He chuckled.She was on the verge of breaking down but she knew that letting him know that his presence was getting to her was the worst thing she could do. So, she kept her stance."If there is anyone who should be afraid of seeing the other, it should be you." She feigned nonchalance. All those years of faking confidence while facing business partners who intimidated her were beginning to pay off."Is that so?" He leaned against the wall, looking down at her like she was an ant. "Well, you are right. I should watch out for knives."The mention of knives made a chill go down her spine. Her entire body trembled as her head buzzed. She had thought that the worst day was the day reality sunk in and she had to face it but she had been
