Contract with Dylan Marcov Engagement is happening. Tomorrow!
Vini's eyes filled with tears and her fist were clenched. She stared at me as if she were going to eat me alive. "What happened, Vini? It was just a painting," I said. Everyone around us snapped photos of it, murmuring among themselves. Alex's sharp eyes looked at me in frustration. As soon as I stepped off the stage, Alex’s family surrounded me. Vini was crying like she'd lost everything. She must be cursing me under her breath. "Why did you do that? Do you really hate me this much?" Vini took out a blade from her purse and placed it on her wrist. "I should kill myself to satisfy you," Vini screamed. The crowd muttered, giving her sympathy. "Miss Ashley is hurting Miss Vini so much. Now Miss Vini is getting into depression." "Yeah! I mean, look how she insulted Miss Vini's painting publicly." I grabbed the blade from her left hand and placed it in her right palm. "If you really want to die, cut the nerves of your left wrist, not the right one," I said. Her face turned pa

I pushed myself against the corner of the car to avoid any contact with Dylan. His face showed clear irritation. He didn’t like my behavior. I had been defensive every time he tried to hold my hand or even touch me."Miss Ashley..." he called out in a sharp tone. His glare was cold and piercing. "I am not invisible, am I?" he asked sarcastically. I knew very well that the man sitting beside me was not just any ordinary person. Even the exhibition owner had bowed to him like he was some kind of emperor. No one would dare insult or ignore him, but I was extremely upset because of that deal."No, Mr. Dylan. I am just a little tired," I said.I glanced at my watch. It was almost eleven. I still had to plan my strategy for tomorrow’s press conference.All of a sudden, a car came out of nowhere and rammed into our car. The impact was so strong that sparks flew from the collision, lighting up the dark road."Ahhh..." I jumped in my seat. Dylan instantly moved closer and wrapped his arms arou

While being in the car, when she pulled her hands away, I shamelessly grabbed her waist. Her playing hard to get only fueled my desire. When I had her on my lap, I wanted her there for the entire journey. But as soon as those hooligans ran off, she slipped back into her seat. The distance between us was unbearable. "I was still stranger to everyone. Isn't too awkward to bring this topic..." Before she could say anything else, the door behind swung open. Alex and Vini walked inside. Ashley immediately pulled away from me as if she was guilty of something. "Mr. Dylan, are you okay? I heard about the accident. I hope everything's fine," Vini asked, her face was full of concern. Alex's eyes were fixed on Ashley. I clenched my jaw. The way he looked at her made me want to rip him apart. "Yeah, I’m fine," I barely aknowledged Vini. My eyes stayed fixed on Alex, silently warning him to back off. But he didn’t. He approached Ashley and placed his hands on her shoulder "Are you alright?" he a

Ashley POV"Stop it, Dylan.." I pushed him away, not because I didn't want his kiss but because I liked it too much. The way his lips claimed mine stirred something deep within me. A spark that I hadn't felt in years and it terrified me. I turned away, guiltily, I had just divorced not a month before, and Dylan's touch sparked in my heart. He stormed into my heart. "Ashley.." Dylan called me, I avoided looking at him. He is about to touch my face. "Don't.." I shook my head. "Don't do this to me.." My body was turned hot, he might have felt it if he tried to touch it. I didn't want him to know that his touch melted me right now. We are just bound by the deal. I shouldn't raise much hope. When I loved Alex deeply, he gave me pain. If I dared to love a person like Dylan, he would shatter my heart into small pieces. I climbed into the car and fixed my gaze out of the window to avoid his piercing stare."We should go back to the mansion, Alan must be worried about us."I said."Okay.

Dylan POV The warm water cascaded over me and washed away the drowsiness but the memories of last night clung to me. Even a blink takes me back to her room, her face appears again. *** Flashback I was restless and couldn't sleep. Just because Ashely was just a wall away. She was too close, yet impossibly far. I resist the urge to see her, fighting a battle within me. I finally made up my mind and walked to her room. She lay asleep on her bed. The soft glow of moonlight illuminated her skin. A purple satin gown clung to her body and outlined the curves that haunted my dream. I knelt beside her hesitatingly and reached her for her face. My fingers brushed her cheeks. She stirred slightly. My thumb ran across her lips, the kiss we had in the evening felt the same as eleven years before. Her lips tasted sweet and juicy, I clenched her waist tightly so that I was scared I might hurt her. I couldn't control myself and brought my face close to her. But then I recalled

Ashley POVAs I descended the stairs, Dylan's gaze locked into me as if the rest of the world didn't exist for him. His expression held something intense. Almost predatoryA nudge from an elderly woman beside him pulled him back to reality. "Go and get her." She whispered. She must be his grandma. He is the only person in his family and also his most lovable person. Without hesitation, Dylan approached me. His confidence was outstanding.I was still on the last two stairs when he held my hand firmly. He helped me step down the remaining stairs."You're late.” His voice was still rough. His hands lingered on mine. “Everyone is waiting." I braced myself. I expected a single compliment from him but his arrogant ass won't let him do that. Yesterday at the same time he was kissing me and now I am engaged to him, what's next? Marriage or honeymoon? I really couldn't understand where my life was going.He gripped my waist as we walked to the stage. Everyone's eyes stuck on us. I could

Dylan POV"Boss, here is the footage of the event management team. They said the person who appeared in the video is not a part of their team.." Fred handed me his tablet. My eyes stuck to the screen. A masked figure slipped into the hall and replaced the balloon with a swift. He left with the calculated move without being noticed. Within a second he disappeared from the crowd. "Fuck!" I scoffed and ran my hand through my hair. “How are we supposed to find him now? More than two thousand people attended the engagement. Identifying the real culprit in that chaos is next to impossible.”Fred hesitated a little bit. “Could it be Alex?" Fred assumed. "Not likely. He doesn’t know enough to pull this off. But…” I said. “ If my engagement with Ashley falls apart, he was the one who benefited from it."I scratched my head."Have you found out about the people who attacked Ashley?" I couldn't help but find the connection between these two incidents. "They are dead,” Fred replied firmly.

I shook my head and was unable to find a word. How could I admit that the nervousness was eating me alive?We were going to meet his grandma and I heard the old lady was cold. She doesn’t like people that much. What if she pushes Dylan to break off an engagement? The Weber group just had stable shares and all because of the news of rumours of our engagement last evening. People gathered trust in the group because of Dylan’s involvement. If Dylan breaks off the engagement, the Weber group falls from grace and all because of my stupid game. Why did I decide to hide my identity in the first place? I snapped my head.“Are you alright?” Dylan asked me, and I nodded. “Have you seen how much loss I had to bear because of you?” He asked me coldly. I shook my head but his expressions already gave me the picture of it.I braced myself and turned my phone on. I was scared of looking into my screen knowing the backlash I was facing.I checked Dylan Marcov's group shares and it was unaffected.

Alex POV"Marcov group had expanded its branch in China, Dylan Marcov gave a hint that he would slowly occupy the whole of Asia. Let's ask him about his further plans.""Well.." Dylan scratched his nose and laughed. "I never planned to expand business out of Europe, but it happened." "I heard the Markov group touching the sky since the day you married, what's the reason that you focused on Asia?""My elder son's birth was in Japan, so basically I wanted him to be rooted at his birthplace.""Are you planning this so that your elder son handles branches in Asia and another in Europe?"Interviewer asked."You can say that.." Dylan laughed at every question. My grip on the remote increased when Dylan Marcov's face appeared on the screen. My teeth gritted at his smile, if one person I held responsible for my condition, it was him. "This Bastard.." I slammed the remote on the floor. "What the fuck you did.. You broke the remote. Do you know how expensive it was? It's the second time you
Contract with Dylan Marcov Girl baby!
She was upset over something, I could read it on her face. I should have postponed my business trip. But I didn’t do that, I should be tagged as a careless husband. “I am really sorry, Ashley. I never paid attention to your health these days. You even managed the projects of the company singlehandedly.” I held her hand. “I should be more cautious about it.”Ashley nodded. She pressed her lips and gave a thought. “Yeah. You should be cautious about wearing condoms in the office. Then this would not have happened.” She said and I was puzzled. For a moment I didn’t understand what she said, but when I realised, My eyes widened. I couldn’t believe that. She said I didn’t use condoms when we did last time in the office, does that mean she is pregnant? “What? What did you say?” I stared at her stomach. Her muscles were loose, I doubt if I was wrong. “I am pregnant again. Thanks to you, we are having our third baby.”Ashley said and I thought as if I was dreaming something. This was un

Ashley POV “Dylan.. I brought Adrian with me today..” I said while panting, Dylan stared at me with sharp eyes. “You are calling another man when I am inside you. That’s ridiculous.”Dylan thrusting inside me. His pace was smoother and deep. Every time he pushed himself into me, I felt like I was reaching heaven.“I am talking.. Ahh. About Adrian. Our second son. Have you forgotten it?” I asked him, I was moaning. But made sure my voice would not leave outside the cabin.“I know that. But he is still a man. No matter how old he is, even if he is our son. I don’t like any other name on your lips when I am with you.” Dylan thrusts hard.“Oh god. Which father gets jealous of his baby.” I said, I reached climax and was about to come. I clenched his elbow, my legs wrapped around his waist. His balls rubbed against my crotch and I came finally. “I have become so sensitive since Adrian was born,” I muttered. I came faster than I thought. “I am not pulling out..” Dylan said. I was stunne
Contract with Dylan Marcov Punishment in the office!
"Really? Have you ever asked me why I tried to capture the Weber group when you were lost for more than twelve years?" He asked me. I raised my brows. I believed everything that Alex said without asking Dylan about it."I knew the reason," I said. "Because of competition. The Weber group was the biggest obstacle for your company."He chuckled and laughed loudly the moment I said that. He leaned closer as he entangled his fingers with each other."And who told you that?"I took a deep breath."Alex, but I have seen the shares you kept holding for many years. It was a big threat to the company." Dylan sighed when he heard that. He "When I tried to come with you on your grandpa's birthday. Your grandpa already knew about it. He beat me and insulted my background. He cursed me for being an orphan, but I didn't mind that. I just wanted to be with you. He asked me to stay away from you."I stared at him with a stunned face, I didn't know if such a thing happened. "I came home, disappoin

Dylan POV"This is the biggest diamond we have mined to date. It's 1800 carats, a human human-excavated diamond found in the last decade. It's one of the rarest diamonds on the earth as it had the largest stone cut."A merchant showed me the diamond I had been waiting for two days. I held the crystal in my hand. He made me wait too long but after seeing the crystal and holding it in my hand I could say that the time was worth wasting. "So you want to buy this?" Merchant asked me. I could have sent Fred or any other person to buy this but this merchant insisted he wanted to see a buyer. Even he was not ready to deal with any other person except the buyer."Do you think I just left my business, especially my wife and my children for two days for a time pass?"I asked him smirking.He nodded. The deal was done. I bought that diamond. It was our first anniversary tomorrow and I wanted to gift her something that she would remember for her life. This rare diamond resembles her, shiny, str
Contract with Dylan Marcov First wedding anniversary!
Ashley POVI was in a huge guilt when the truth came out right before my eyes. I recalled the time when Dylan told me he found the papers, he actually found the divorce papers that Alan sent to him."Why didn't I clarify things that time? Dylan didn't even know about my pregnancy. He never abandoned me or my baby." I was frustrated after knowing the huge mistake that happened. I decided to clarify everything today when Dylan gets back to the home. I was waiting for him at dinner time, It was past nine yet he was not around. The bell rang and I rushed to open it"Sister-in-law," Fred arrived at the door. I was shocked to see him alone. "Where is Dylan? Why is he not with you?" I looked behind him. Fred appeared a little worried."Boss went on a business trip to the United States for some work. He will return in three days." Fred informed me. I was stunned, Dylan didn't inform me about any such business trip. I tried to call him, but Fred interrupted me."He is in flight, Your phon
Contract with Dylan Marcov Competition!
Ashley POVI initially denied it, but then I realised that Dylan needed me right now. He wanted me in his arms, he wanted to be all over me. I kissed him passionately, holding his face in my hands. The night appeared longer than it was. Dylan continued working from the office a few days later. We were living in a penthouse for a while as Maroc mansion was going into a huge transformation. The blast that occurred that day had already shaken the entire mansion, plus Dylan wanted to increase the security for children. I prepared mashed potatoes for Damien. He just started getting tiny little teeth and he was able to eat some mashed vegetables. There was a knock on the door, it was mid-afternoon and Dylan had no chance to come back. I opened the door and found a security guard was there."Mrs. Marcov, a man named Alan Weber is here. He wanted to see you now, but he had not taken any appointments." Guard said, as soon as I heard the name, a broad smile appeared on my lips. When I ca

Angela POVI watched my daughter leave in the police van. I fell on my knees and burst into tears. "Lilia... My daughter. Lilia.." I cried miserably. Jonathan came and held my hand."Why are you crying now? It was you who handed Lilia to the police. I told you not to do that, why did you do this then?" Jonathan asked me worriedly. When the fire broke out in the event, Dylan saved his family. I was restless. Lilia confessed that she was behind this disaster and she wanted to kill Ashley and her children, that's the reason she took this step. But she was too naive to understand this world. "If I had not sent her to the police, Dylan would have killed her. It's too dangerous if she is out. She is safe in prison."I said with terrifying words. I recalled how he bailed out the culprit of the fire in the factory and even paid a huge amount as a Fine just to make him disappear. That person appeared dead after a few months. "I didn't want Dylan to disappear my daughter from this world. S

Ashley POVI found the biggest nightmare of my life getting true right before my eyes. Fred and other bodyguards saved Dylan. He was taken to the hospital immediately. Damien had no burn but Dylan's arm caught fire. We were standing outside the hospital and waiting for the doctor to come out."Patient had minor burns at his elbow and the side of his arm. It's superficial, yet I would suggest taking care of it. So it won't cause any infection." Doctor said,I walked inside, Dylan was lying on the bed. He sat up and smiled when I went in. I couldn't stop my tears when I saw him. I hugged him tightly. I didn't know if it was because of my overwhelmed hormones or the fear of losing him, but I began crying loudly. "Hey, why are you crying? It's not like it's a big injury. I still have a working hand attached to my shoulder." Dylan said as he wiped my tears. "I was scared.." I said. When that big burning pillow was about to fall over him, for a moment, I thought I lost everything. "Don
