Falling For The Contract I love you too pumpkin
Later that day ….I sniffled in deeply as i just let the tears flow from my eyes down to my cheeks, I felt my dad hands on my shoulder rubbing it comfortingly, but I just felt too distraught to be comforted.How can everything with my life go so wrong just within a very short period of time, I stared at my mother in the upgraded room that Adil had let them put her in, with all the tubes and pipes connected to her body and my heart broke.My mother cannot just go like this, I haven’t even had the opportunity to enjoy the mother and daughter relationship for so long.All through my childhood and even until late adulthood, my mother had always been so engrossed with work and had little or no time for me, I grew up tending towards only my dad until about some five years ago, i was just twenty then, right off teenage age, I couldn’t hold it in again and the most hurting part of it was that she didn’t even realize I felt neglected, only then did she actually slow down and began to try to f
Falling For The Contract Are you kidding me!
Adil.Later that morning 9:00am …“You’re doing the most honestly!” I grumbled behind the steering of my car, my grip on the wheel tightening as I took the left and turned onto his street.He had just arrive town today and he insisted on me coming to pick him up at the airport.“You have a babe, you should just have called her,” I added in a murmur, passing him a side glance as I simultaneously tried to keep my eyes on the road.“After everything you’ve done to me, picking me up should be the least you can do for me,” he replied dramatically and I rolled my eyes.Eden was the perfect friend for me, we met while we were still in high school, he was the jovial one and I was the reserved one, we never spoke to each other because I considered him too noisy and careless and he considered me arrogant and too quiet for his liking.Until we got paired for our senior year project, we were three in the group, Myself, Eden and Laura.All three of us just got to find out that our perception of ea
Falling For The Contract Now I can rest!
Janelle.Meanwhile ….“I tried calling you yesterday, you weren’t answering, are you sure everything is okay?” Bella asked walking beside me as I walked into the office, I shook my head slowly as I held my bag up to my elbow, without breaking our strides we walked into my office, I slowly turned to look at her with a small exhale.“A little emergency came up yesterday, I’m sorry, what do you have for me,” I replied, I dropped my bags on the table and turned to look at her leaning onto the table and folding my hands across my chest.“As you asked I looked into the message you got,” She began as she flipped her iPad open and turned it to me, I gently took it from her and peered into it,“Apparently the message was sent from a location around here,” she muttered as her hands circled around a particular location on the map on the far left, I nodded slowly as I just listened to her speak, “The message seemed to have come without a number, whoever sent it must be very good at his job,” she
Falling For The Contract Eccentric
Janelle Later that day, At home …..6:00pm The doorbell rang loudly echoing throughout the house, I looked down at Tehilla who was sitting in between my legs on the floor as I assisted her with her assignment,“Dada,” she said looking up at me, I gently dropped her pencil on the floor, got up from the floor and headed towards the door.I pulled the door open and my heart unintentionally skipped a beat as soon as I saw who it was! Ma’am Becky.I cleared my throat immediately as I tried to adjust my dress, I pulled the door open wider for her and stepped away for her to come in.Her face held no expression, with her shoulders up high, she walked into the house with a confident stride.“Grandma!” Tehilla greeted as she stood up from where she was seated, ran towards her and wrapped her hands around her legs where her height stopped.I saw a look of disgust cross her face but it disappeared as soon as it came, she gently took her hands and pulled her away from her.“I can see you’re go
Falling For The Contract I thought as much
Janelle.He took out an handkerchief from his pocket and my head got calculating, what a sloppy method of trying to get me, the alley was very deserted and quiet, he placed the handkerchief over my nose, I held my breath deeply and struggled with him for some seconds, after some seconds, I let go of myself in his arms and stopped struggling with him as I slowly pushed myself to the floor, as soon as I saw that his grip on me had loosened, I grabbed his arms and flipped him over slamming his back on the floor.As soon as I did that i rushed for the handkerchief that had now fallen down on the floor, I placed it over his nose and pressed him to the floor tightly.Immediately I was sure that he had gone unconscious, I gently stood up from his side my breath heavy and just then i looked up and saw three other guys infront of me, I gently tried to stabilize my breathing as I stepped back slowly, it was a close and there wasn’t actually any way out except for where they stood.My gaze moved
Falling For The Contract Then it’s anger
Adil.“I need you to monitor your wife,”“She’s showing symptoms of depression,”“I need you to bring her to the hospital for an MRI, I really can’t confirm what I’m not sure of,”“Janelle will never come with me to the hospital,” “Then for now, just make sure she’s not stressed and let her use the drugs I gave until you’re able to convince her,”My conversation with the doctor could not stop running through my mind, and I couldn’t stop thinking about what would have happened if I hadn’t shown up there, I shuddered at the thought that she could have died.I just felt like she was taking too long already, Atleast if she wanted to take an angry walk she should have been back, I couldn’t stay back anymore and then I decided to go check for her.Even the doctor’s diagnosis I couldn’t really understand what he meant he spoke like she had one terminal illness and nothing I said to him made him tell me exactly what was going on.He just kept on asking me to bring her to the hospital for a
Falling For The Contract I know
Janelle That morning …..“Are you fine?!” My team members asked rushing towards me immediately I walked into the office, a smile touched my lips, they didn’t stop walking they just followed me to my office.“You don’t have to worry guys, it was nothing serious!” I replied, they exhaled deeply with a sigh of relief and my smile even widened, Atleast some people were genuinely worried for me.“My husband have the guys who attacked me in jail, so I would want you and Serena to go speak with them,” I said and they nodded slowly in agreement, I gently turned to look at Bella,“Bella and I would speak to John Max’s assistant together,” I said and they all nodded.“But there a small tiny problem though,” Chad said and we all turned to look at him, he cleared his throat and continued speaking.“I’ve tried to get to speak with his assistant but it seems like she doesn’t want to speak to anyone, they have decided to not pursue the case,” I exhaled deeply nodded slowly as I tried to digest his
Falling For The Contract I don’t like you
Janelle ….Evening that day ….I gently picked up my notepad and placed them in my bag as I prepared to leave, the door to my office slowly went open and I looked up to see Serena walk in.“You guys are back quite late,” I muttered as she walked towards my table,“We ran into a bit of traffic on our way back,” she replied and I nodded slowly.“Have Chad send the report of your outing today to my email, and I gave the report of our meeting today with Alyssa to Bella, she’ll give it to you, I need you to verify the veracity of that report,” I said and she nodded slowly, she was our intelligence office, so before we act on any lead it has to go through her.“Okay then,” she replied and with that she turned around and walked out of the office.I exhaled deeply, it was time to go home.****I hummed the lyrics of my favourite song -oceans as I drove down to the house, just as I turned onto our close, I saw I black jeep packed in front of our house, and just as I got closer, I saw a lady wa

Falling For The Contract Epilogue
Janelle.Thirteen years later.12:00pm …“Do you really think that works?” I muttered and slowly turned to look at Adil beside me, he adjusted his glasses and his lips slowly stretched into a smile as he stared at me.“Come on now Adil, I’m being serious,” I grumbled as I slowly let go of the keypad, leaned against the chair and turned fully to face him.He reached out slowly and gently caressed my hair his eyes twinkling in admiration,“Thirteen years down the line and you’re even more beautiful than when we first met,” he muttered, I chuckled lightly and slowly arched closer to him.It’s actually being thirteen years down the line, I wouldn’t say those thirteen years have been bed of roses but it has been the most perfect years because I have my family around me.Tehilla is now nineteen years and ten years ago we birthed our second child- Hazel, she’s the cutest and sweetest and we love her so much, we love both our children so much, and I actually won’t prefer doing life without my
Falling For The Contract Back home
Adil.Next day…“Careful,” Janelle muttered for the umpteenth time as we walked into the house, I told her that I could walk myself but she insisted on holding me, my hands was around her neck and her hands around my waist as she assisted me inside.“Welcome home!” Everyone yelled excitedly as I walked into the living room, the living room was decorated with small welcome home posters and balloons, it wasn’t too much of a decoration but it was cute.“Welcome home dada,” Tehilla squealed as she ran towards me with a bouquet of flower.“She insisted on getting you flowers,” Janelle whispered to me as she gently let go of me and Anna Tehilla nanny came up to take the shoulder bag she was carrying from her.I looked around and all our intimate family and friends were present except Janelle’s parents, I turned to face her and just as I wanted to ask her, Laura walked up to us,“Big Man! You’re back!” She teased, I furrowed my brows at her and moved closer to her as if trying to examine so
Falling For The Contract Four Agonizing weeks
One month Later.I sat by Adil’s bed with my hands folded across my chest, after all the bullets from Enzo he went into coma and it’s been four weeks.Four weeks of everyone of us praying and hoping that he would come awake, four weeks of me crying every night just because I could not bear to lose him just when everything is starting to look bright, I don’t know what I would do if he remains asleep for longer than this.I slowly reached out and placed my hands in his hair rubbing it slowly,“Adil please, it’s okay now, you’ve rested enough, come back to me please,” I whispered tears starting to fall off my eyes and I just let them fall freely.One month back, I got the shocker of my life, Diane was Enzo’s Sister?! I definitely did not see that one coming and then I just came to realize that what we just conquered is a carefully well thought about plan that took years, the positioning of everyone Enzo used was very strategic, No wonder all the investigators before me never got anywhere
Falling For The Contract Easy way out
Enzo.“Hello, you don’t have any other option,” I said and with that I removed the phone from my ear and ended the call.I exhaled deeply with a sigh as I turned to the corner where Tehilla sat playing with toys absolutely caught up in her own world, Too bad that she’s about to be caught up in the world her parent created.“Uncle Enzo,” she called and slowly turned to look at me, I dipped my phone in my pocket and turned to look at her with a small sneer at the corner of my lips.“What of Dada and Mama, when will they be here,” She asked, I rolled my eyes to the back of my head as I picked up my car keys, about to head out of the house, the door opened and Diane walked in, I paused in my tracks and slowly turned to look at her close the door behind her and walk in, after her outburst yesterday, I did not expect to see her here again so soon.She slowly walked in and looked around, her eyes went wide immediately she saw Tehilla in the room, she blinked rapidly and slowly turned to me.
Falling For The Contract Thoughtless
Janelle.Next day, 2:00pm …I pushed the door into my parents house opened and walked in, I closed the door behind me and made my way inside the living room.“Ohh you’re here, we weren’t just about to have lunch,” Dad said to me immediately he saw me walk into the living room, he raised his head and flashed me a smile, shortly after mom stepped out of the kitchen, our eyes met and she wordlessly walked up to the dinning table and dropped the jar of water she was carrying on the dinning table. She gently turned around and walked up to me.“You finally came to see your father,” she muttered, ignoring her, I dipped my hands into my bag and took out the paper I found yesterday.“Actually I came to see you both,” I replied in a whisper, Adil’s voice begging me to calm down and listen to whatever explanation they had ringing in my ears. I just could not fathom why he is still being calm and nice after everything they have put us through, I slowly looked up at her locked gazes with her and
Falling For The Contract I’m done with you
Janelle.I picked up my coat at the entrance and put it over my pyjamas, Adil rushed towards me immediately and grabbed my hands, he gently turned me around to face him and pulled me closer.“Relax, “ he whispered, “He has been bugging to see me all these days well I’m ready now,” I grunted, he slowly raised his hands to my hair and patted it gently, he caressed my hair slowly and gently cupped my cheeks in his hands, he stepped closer to me and stared down in my eyes.“You’re not honey, Don’t go there tonight and ruin your already bad relationship with your mother,”“I don’t plan to mending the relationship,” I replied stubbornly, his lips stretched into a small smile as he gently placed his palm protectively around the back of my head and pulled me into his chest in a hug.He patted my hair gently and I instinctively wrapped my hands around his waist.“Go to your parent tomorrow Morning instead, take tonight to collect your feelings, so you don’t end up saying things you don’t mean
Falling For The Contract Don’t go
Five days Later ….9:00pm Thursday….“I’ll stay with Tehilla,” I muttered as I walked towards the bed, picked up a pillow and duvet and headed out of the room, Adil stood up from where he sat immediately, grabbed my hands and pulled me back to face him, “Don’t worry, I’ll leave the room for you, Be comfortable,” he whispered and with that he let go of my hands and took the pillow and duvet from me,“Sleep well,” he whispered, I slowly turned to him as I watched his retreating figure walk out of the room, it’s been five days days since he came back home and I’ve always slept crouched beside Tehilla on her bed.Although I was still chairwoman on Paper, Adil had returned back to his office and has taken over his project once a again, it wasn’t difficult for him to get back because he was proven to be innocent, he was apologized to for Tarnished image and everything has returned to normal, except that we still weren’t on talking terms and I’ve managed to still ignore my parents, and I
Falling For The Contract What about you
Janelle.“Why?!”I slowly held my mouth close and turned back to face the policeman as soon as Adil got to us. He stood up straight immediately and bowed to Adil slightly,“I’m sorry sir, Miss Diane informed us this morning that she’s no longer in charge of the case,” He explain, I sighed rolling my eyes to the back of my head,“And so?!”“So I came to see my mother you won’t allow me in also?!” He said and I slowly turned to look up at him, he just called Becky his mother like it was nothing.“I’m sorry sir,” the policeman apologized bowing again, “Good, now let us in, My wife and I would be going to see my mother, don’t we have right to visit?!” He said and the police man nodded continuously.“You do, you do sir, this way,” He muttered.“I’ll just stay here,” Bella said and I turned to her, I winked at her desperate begging her to not leave me alone with Adil but she didn’t meet my gaze intentionally and she nodded with a small firm smile.“Please go ahead,” she muttered, Adil sl

I used all of the anger from Enzo and Adil to deal with him a
