Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 28. Is He Tired Of Me?
*Caroline*I sat on the bed, bored out of my mind. But I had to stay here. He would be back soon and it had been a while since we slept together. When we first met, Hunter couldn’t keep his hands off me. And now, I could only silently wait until he was in the mood to receive affection. But I had to be patient. I couldn’t complain and make him upset. When we argued, I could feel him slipping through my fingers. I felt like I was losing him. That’s why I learned how to adopt a persona and attitude that would suit his tastes. With my freshly showered body in a white nightgown and my hair flowing over one of my shoulders, I tried to relax. Hunter entered the room. I smiled, feeling a huge weight off my chest. “Honey.” I got up. “You’re back! How was work?”Hunter gave me a swift nod. Instead of answering right away, he loosened the tie around his neck and walked over to the dresser. “It was fine. Did you talk to the salon owner about securing that dress you wanted?”He had yet to spar
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 29. Why Did She Marry Me?
KennyA woman dressed in a black tux approached us as soon as we entered the building. “Good afternoon, Mr. Greenland!” She bowed briefly to us both. “What a pleasure to see you once again! What are you looking for this fine evening?”I laid a hand on Copper’s lower back. “I’m just looking for something for my wife today. I’m thinking elegant, something that can help me show her off. Do you have anything like that in mind, Julia?”I could feel Copper tense but she didn’t say a word as she kept that smile on her face. Julia swept up Copper’s appearance, choosing to linger on her school uniform. It took only one look from me for her to stop. “Of course!” She quickly gestured for us to come further into the store. “This way! We received a new line of dresses not that long ago. I’m sure they will suit her quite well.”Copper and I followed her without complaint. Julia kept her face forward as if he was trying to hide her embarrassment. During our walk, my hand never left Copper back. T
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 30. That Black Dress
KennyI remembered what my mother said. If there were any problems in Caroline's and his marriage, then I should tell her right away. Georgina had never had any respect for Caroline. I knew she gossiped with her friends as to how long their marriage would last. She delighted in seeing his life fall apart. And for the most part, I didn’t disagree with her.Up to this day, I didn’t know the reason for my parents’ divorce. They told me a bogus lie, something about them falling out of love, but it wasn’t enough. I’ve long since stopped trying to find out. But after seeing my father’s behavior firsthand in adulthood, I think I finally understood why.They were speaking to one of the store clerks. I recognized her as Mandy. “Give her whatever outfit she wants. Treat her well,” Hunter said with a smile. The words were directed at Mandy, but a flirty smile was targeted at that woman. The way he held her, her hushed conversations, and so tenderly she rubbed his arm told me that these two didn
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 31. Kenny, Why Did You Marry Me?
*Kenny* I grew annoyed with myself. This was not the time nor place for my sexual frustration to catch up with me. From what I could gather, Julia listened and pretended that we weren’t there. As long as we kept quiet, then it shouldn’t be difficult to go unnoticed. The problem with that was that I couldn’t guarantee I could maintain that position for much longer. Her scent kept flooding into my nose. Our eyes met. I stiffened. She mouthed something to me. “That’s not your stepmom, is it?” I thought twice about how much I should tell her. It’s not like she is actually a part of this family. If I lied to her then there wouldn’t be an issue. “No, it isn’t,” I decided to tell the truth instead. Copper nodded in acknowledgement, but instead of going back to looking at the door, she kept her eyes on me. I found myself subconsciously counting every lash, taking in her heated cheeks along with the stray hair that had detached itself from the rest when I pulled her in here. I fel
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chaper 1. A Wife?!
KennyHe slammed his drink on the table. "The only woman I'm interested in is whoever my master chooses for me! Whether it be his sister, aunt, or even his grandmother! But it has to be a relative."Everyone around the table laughed, annoying him even more than he was annoyed before. "Kenny, don't be silly. How could you, at 21, marry an old woman?" His mother snickered, waving him off. In the room's bright lighting her emerald earrings sparkled. "All of Master Harmony's remaining relatives are well above your age. Pick one of the beautiful women we've chosen for you. They all have suitable backgrounds and immaculate manners. Just give them a chance, you won't be disappointed."Kenny pinched his nose. Why did he even bother with these people when he knew they'd just be saying the same thing over and over again? "It would be easier to find you someone if you just told us what type of girl you like," Mr. Greenland added in. His current wife clung to his arm, glaring at Kenny's birth mo
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 2. Copper Harmony
Copper There was no way they'd let me go free. I flipped my hair over my shoulder and folded my arms. The girl beside me wouldn't stop crying. She bawled so loudly with her face in her palms that if we weren't alone, I'm sure we would be the spectacle of anyone who passed by. All this over a slap to the face. I rolled my eyes. The blue office door opened and we both looked up. The first person to step through was our principal, Mr. Hardley. As he turned to us he fixed his gaze on me, face riddled with disgust. I looked him in his stone cold blue eyes, making sure he knew the feeling was more than reciprocated. My parents trailed behind him, heads lowered. "You two, I spoke with both of your parents," Principal Hardley said. "Betty." Betty sat up and wiped her eyes, her light brown swept her shoulders each time she moved. "I called your parents. They said they would be back by Friday, at the latest. And as for you," he pointed at me. "I don't want to see you until then." "
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 3. Not My Grandfather
Copper I could tell Dad was still as confused as ever. Mom and the man have barely said a word to each other, yet he was smiling as if he said it all. "Grace," he started, "It's been a long time since we've last talked to each other like this, face to face." "Mom, I'm hungry," I interjected before she could respond. "We should go home soon before it gets late." I said partly looking at him, but kept my demeanor calm and oblivious. Until he turned to stare at me, then I couldn't help but frown. To my dismay, he started smiling and coming over to where I was. I took a step back. "My, is that Copper? You've grown so much I couldn't tell." Dad placed his arm over my shoulders. He eyed the old man up and down. "Sweetie, who is this?" My mother rested her hands on her hips and sighed. Some students passed by, too lost in their conversation to find anything wrong. "Daniel, this is Mister Harmony, Johnathon's father. And Copper's-" "An unknown stranger that left us to suffer," I inte
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 4. Time To Scam My Future Husband
Copper"His wife?!" My mouth hung open in shock. "That's the last thing I said, yes," Mr. Harmony stated patiently. "Only for a little while, it's not permanent." Of course I heard everything else he said, about how he wanted to bring me back into the family, and not because of this other rich guy he wants me to marry. The idea of being an heiress represented something I always dreamed about, but was also terrified of at the same time. Being a wealthy daughter would have helped my parents a lot, I'm not blind to that. All the things I could do with that money, all the ways I could make sure the people whom always stood by my side live in luxury for the rest of their days. But there was also the issue where I don't know this man, nor whether what he said was true. For all I know, the Harmony enterprise could be bankrupt and they're trying to use me as the scrap goat. Not cool! I don't like that at all, and I would hate myself for being stupid enough to fall for his tricks. Howev

Mary SueHe was wrong. I planned on getting away from him and quickly. Whatever he wanted from me wasn't good.I pushed my chair back. “If you leave, your full name, photo, address, and past job history will be posted on social media. Including everything you’ve done while working these… ‘acting gigs’. I have a strong feeling that I’m not the only one who wants to find you.”Gingerly, I sat back down. “I don’t know who you think you’ve found, but I was only leaving because some weirdo is acting like he knows me.”“Are you saying I don’t know you, Mary Sue?” He looked into my eyes. “I mean, you made such a fuss at my wedding. Don’t you want to talk about child support?”I swallowed a ball of spit. Sealing myself, I asked, “What do you want from me?”“Tell me who you’re working for,” he stated plainly. “And what they want with me and my family.”I scoffed. “Right, ‘cause everything is about you. I swear, you rich people make me sick.”The bell above the door rang. I stiffened, thinking

Copper I gave him a polite smile. “I’m fine. Kenny just let me know. What perfect timing.”His smile returned to his face. “Oh, yeah. He isn’t the best at communication.” He laughed and scratched his head, but it seemed forced. After getting no reaction from me, he cleared his throat and opened the passenger door. Once again, I smiled at him and entered. The ride was silent, but not in a peaceful way. I could tell that behind that smile Justin was struggling to say something. The windows were rolled up and the a/c was on, giving us complete privacy.“Do you want some music? I have plenty of new songs in storage so you can play anything you like,” Justin suggested. It would put the silence to rest but I didn’t feel like it. At least not here. I liked listening to music when I had the quiet and peace to enjoy it. There is no way I could get into the mood here.“No thanks,” I said. “I’m fine like this. But if you want to play something I won’t mind.”“You don’t need to worry about me,

CopperI raised my eyebrow. “I’m pretty sure I just told you.”“No, like…” Emily tapped on her bottom lip. “Everyone who’s anyone knows all the things I just told you. It’s not realistic that you claim to be from the Harmony family and yet not experience any of the benefits having that kind of money brings.”Oh, I see. That’s what it is. I kept my calm. “I haven’t lied, if that’s what you’re insinuating. I simply wasn’t raised to be concerned about that stuff.”“Yeah, I bet,” Emily giggled. Sabrine reached forward and whispered into her ear loud enough for me to hear.“I bet she’s some poor scholarship student who’s lying about her last name to seem interesting. If that’s not the case, she’s probably the daughter of a staff member. The ones that clean up after the important people.”I could feel my anger rising to the surface. I breathed in, then breathed out. I’m not at my old school anymore. I made a promise to my grandfather and my parents that I would be on my best behavior. Being

Kenny "That's completely fine with me," I told her. My attention was on Copper, but I was watching Justin through the corner of my eyes. "I'll be home all day, so you'll see me when you get back. My friend is keeping me company." I gestured towards Justin with my hand, causing Justin to sit up properly so she could see him. "Oh." She blinked. Shortly afterwards, Copper formed a smile. "Hi! Sorry, I didn't see you there. Good morning, uh... Sorry, I don't know your name." "Justin." He smiled back. "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too, Justin. I'm Copper." She brought her gaze back to me. "I have my keys, so I'll let myself in when I come back. See you later, bye Justin.” “As, uh, same!” Justin fumbled through his words. By the time he finished talking, Copper had already made it to the front door. She closed it behind her. After she left, Justin looked back at me so fast that I thought he must have been trying to break his own neck. “Sooo, she seems nice,” he said. I
Her Ceo Husband Wants Her Time! Chapter 23. Such A Sensitive Soul
Copper I didn't know how to respond to him. I couldn't. All I could do was grip onto this pristine, white Oakwood table. What I didn't realize that night was that I was scared. Scared that when I tell him the truth, he will take Darling's side and accuse me of being jealous. He'd tell me that I was trying to stain Darling's name because I didn't like her. then he wouldn't listen to a word I say for the next two years, effectively destroying the peace I've worked to build between us. She's his love after all. In what world would he believe me when his "angel" says otherwise? He has never been the nicest person, but he might fully turn against me. But at the time, all I felt was a lot of conflicting feelings that I couldn't quite put into words. After a few deep breaths, I felt a bit calmer. Copper, I thought to myself. Going off on Kenny now would cause problems for me later. Besides, he didn't do anything. I combed my fingers through my hair and took one last, deep breath. I sp
