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

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.

    I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw Mrs. Marcov get into her bedroom to take a rest. The air felt much lighter. Dylan’s hands found my shoulder again. “Let’s go..” He said, “I want to show you what your future looks like.” My future. Those words stirred something within me. The conversation we just had, I never had it in three years of my married life. Nobody barely talked to me on the dining table, when I was with Alex.My mansion, my house… I was never habitual to such words because Alex and Melissa never called their house as mine or their family as mine. And here with Dylan, it’s different. We just had an engagement. Not engagement, I would say contractual relationship and I feel like I am already married to him."This is our backyard.." He widened his arms. My jaw dropped.“Backyard?” I scoffed. “This is not a backyard, that's a public garden or a national reserve.” I said. The backyard had a helipad behind it and a racecourse. It was absurd. He had everything.He chuc

  • Contract with Dylan Marcov   LOVE IS A BUSINESS!

    AshleyThe car pulled in front of Weber Group’s headquarters. I braced myself and prepared for the chaos I had to encounter. I stepped out of the car and what I found was a little shocking. The calm surroundings. The pavilion was empty—no shouting protestors, no reporters blocking the entrance. Just silence.I might be watching this calmness after a long fifteen days. I lowered my sunglasses and approached the security guard."Is the employee on holiday? I thought Sunday was yesterday.” I asked him in disbelief. He chuckled lightly. “No, ma’am. The employees are back. The strike is over.”The words hit me like a melody. The strike is over! I walked inside and found everything in its place. I was greeted by them. Seeing them back at work was a balm to my nerves. I entered my cabin only to see our senior manager Mr. Patel and Alan were engaged in some discussion. “Miss Diana! Have you heard of it? Dylan Marcov approved one of the biggest deals in our history!”He was shocked. Alan

    Ashley POVThe meeting ended in chaos without any conclusion. Dylan’s betrayal left me reeling. We had an agreement—he would help rebuild Weber Group. So why had he pulled his vote at the last moment?I was baffled, not understanding what kind of person he was exactly. I walked out of my cabin only to find a noise coming from the balcony. "How could you do this, Alex? I told you to vote against her then why did you do this?" I heard Vini shouting at Alex aggressively. I froze, eavesdropping."And you think I’m your puppet? That I’ll just dance to your tune?” Alex shot back. “Don't I have my own opinion?"Alex said with a cold tone. I had never seen him raise his voice against Vini. They are both always a lovey-dovey couple in front of the world. At least Alex finally realized he’d been nothing more than Vini’s pawn.“Do you even know who I am? I’m the only daughter of the Weber Group. You should—”Alex cut her off with a mocking laugh.“Only daughter? You’re not even blood-related!

    Dylan POV She defied me again. Even after I explicitly told her not to, she answered the damn phone. My jaw tightened. I snatched the phone from her hand without a second thought and pressed it against my ear. "Diana, I need to talk to you. Can we meet, please?" I frowned. That bastard. I always knew Alex would regret choosing Vini over Ashley. He would realise what he lost. When I was not able to move on from her after so many years, How could he? I just didn’t think his regrets would surface this quickly. This was why I withdrew my vote. Why I made damn sure he and Ashley wouldn’t work together on any project. Not now, not ever. "Alex," I sneered. "I didn’t think you’d be fucking shameless to ask my fiancée to meet you." There was a pause on the other side of the phone. "Mr. Marcov. Is Diana with you?" He asked, his voice was tinted with anger, but I fucking didn’t care about it. "Yes, she is here. You are interrupting our date. More than that, you are calling m

    Finally, you came. It’s past office hours.." Alan approached me with hurled steps as soon as I entered the Weber house. "Grandpa’s been waiting for you to join him for dinner.”"Alan, can you take Grandpa for dinner today? I have no appetite." I said, gulping the fury within me. "Has anything happened?" Alan asked me, perhaps it's written all over my face. That's the reason I didn't want to see Grandpa right now."Nothing. Just a usual bad day.." I muttered and made my way back to my room. Once I got inside, I slammed the door shut and tossed my purse in the corner. “It wasn’t because of you. If any other girl had been in your place, the same thing would’ve happened.” I mimicked his voice. It ignited my anger all over again. How could he say that?Even though I engaged myself in the work, his words still echoed in my ears like a broken cassette. I went straight into the washroom and stood below the warm shower. I stared at my reflection in the foggy mirror. My anger now tinged with

    Dylan POVFlashbackWhen Ashley left the courtroom after slapping me, I wasn't angry with her. If she thinks her mere slapping me will make me get myself away from her life, then she is wrong. Even if she shot me in my heart, my heart would scream just her name. "Boss, Are you okay?" Fred asked me. My death glare made his mouth shut. This is what she meant to me, no one in the world dares to look into my eyes but I allowed her to slap me. I had given her the place where she could do anything to me and I will still love her. "Take the lawsuit back. She would contest it till her last breath. Her love for the Weber group was more than anything else, it was her father’s dream after all." I said, I saw the spark in her eyes that she would break but wouldn’t bend. And I would break myself before breaking her.“Okay, Boss.” Fred watched me in disbelief. Ashley did not give her whereabouts, she even disabled all tracing on her phone and finding her was extremely difficult. She even fired

    Ashley POVHe bent on his knees and checked the pulse of that hired killer. He was disappointed when he found the killer was already dead. Dylan took that goon's mask off and dug out his phone out of his pocket. He took some photos of that person with his phone. He sent it to Fred but as we were in a deep jungle, the network was lost. "You killed him.." I said with a trembling voice. Dylan nodded as he threw the dagger aside. "Yeah, I know I shouldn't. We needed to keep him alive. At least he would have confessed who sent him." Dylan said. "But no problem, Fred would find which gang he belong to. He seemed professional gang member." "I know that. He was the one who attacked us when we left the painting exhibition." I said. His face darkened at my words. He stood up and started walking. "Let's go somewhere else. Fred will take care of it in the morning." Dylan spoke as if it was a routine for him. I felt almost puking at the metallic smell of the blood that started lingering in th

    Ashley POVHis face turned colder, he was more like a giant iceberg placed in the room. I held my bag and got ready to leave. His eyes gave me different and scary vibes, more like he could ruin me at any moment. Better I leave this place before he does anything. As soon as I moved, I bumped into his chest. I was startled, just a moment before he was sitting on the chair and another moment he was standing in my way. "Where are you going? We have not finished the mediation yet." He blocked my path. His eyes glared at me with an intense gaze that was almost ready to pierce my skin. "I don't think we will come to any conclusion now. Let the lawsuit go ahead." I said as I finished gathering my stuff from the wooden desk. I noticed he was not even listening to me, his eyes were on my lips. Seemed he was controlling himself to kiss me. His hands were inside his pockets, and he stood in the courtroom as if he owned that place."Why did you leave last evening? Didn’t I ask you to stay unt

    "What is this? Are you insane?" I yelled at him. "I came here to talk to you about the lawsuit about not getting tattooed." I blabbered. "It's you who think throwing the ring would end everything between us." Dylan took my finger in his hand and started carving in my skin. "Dylan.." I almost cried out, but he didn't flinch. He kept drawing something with that tattoo pen on my ring finger. It didn't hurt but I screamed and tried hard to snatch my hand away from him."Bear it for a while, princess. It's painless tattoo ink, it will just tingle like an ant bite." He said. In a short while he released my hand. "It's done." I stared at his art and was stunned. "Are you crazy.." I tried hard to rub it but it was of no use. Now his name is carved on my finger. "Now dare to take this ring off." He said as he dropped the pen back into the drawer. "It's another way to tell any Tom, dick and Harry that you are mine. No one can dare to put their eyes on you whenever they want." He claimed p

    Ashley POV"Send the next candidate." I said, and rubbed my forehead. It was five in the evening and I finished the interview of seventy girls. I found five of them very productive and talented that we need them in this department."Madam, you are just wasting your time on them." Mr. Silver came and tried to convince me. "You are only able to choose five after three days of tiring interview." "Mr. Silver, these five newcomers are better than employees who have been working in our company for several years. They are trained with new softwares and they can handle the technology better than them." I stated. Mr. Silver's face turned bitter as if he could not digest everything I said. "I have given my two decades to this factory. I knew it better than anyone."He stated arrogantly."Shall I hold you responsible for its decline then?" I asked him. His face turned a little annoyed because I didn't take his advice even being a senior officer. He didn't say anything but walked out of the cab

    Dylan POV"Why would I marry an orphan like you? What if you are the product of rape?" Her words stabbed into my heart like a sharp dagger. How disgusting it felt when that cursed line fell out of her mouth. I never mind if the world said this about me, but Ashley.Why did it happen? She was the one who fought for me when people blamed my blood. She said it never mattered if I had no family, she called herself my family, my home. I poured the drink into a glass and drank it again. I wanted to forget everything that happened that day. I wanted to assume that this day had not come but the more I was drunk, the more everything flashed before my eyes. The moment we shared was a dream, she was in my arms, but then everything shattered. "Boss, you are drinking too much. You shouldn't drink more." Fred grabbed my hand and tried to stop me. But I snatched the glass back and shot him a glare."Shut up. You are not a boss here. I would kick you out if you did this again." I poured the whis

    Dylan stared at me with surprise, as I brought the glass closer to his mouth. He grabbed my wrist and stopped me. "What happened?" My gaze met his suspicious eyes. "Do you think I mixed something in it?" I asked. He leaned closer to me, and whispered in my ears."I would love to drink poison when you are serving me it." He said as he held the wine glass in his hand. He brought it closer to my mouth. I stared at him with a puzzled face."You are really thinking I poisoned it." I said and sipped it in front of him. Dylan instantly geabbed my neck from behind and tucked his mouth to mine.He sucked all the wine from my mouth, My eyes wide opened. He released my mouth as soon as he finished."Ahhh... It feels tastier when I drink it with your mouth." He said, I smiled and fed the drink with my mouth. He grabbed a wine bottle in his hand and poured it over my lips. The wine juice dripped down through my lips to my neck and streamed down between my cleavage. "Ahhh.." The cold wine runni

    Ashley POVI took my stuff to the car and drove myself to the factory in Southport. Shina transferred me to one of the oldest factories, whose production was low but maintenance was too bad. Hardly any air conditioner working there. I thought of giving a resignation, but I didn’t want to look like a coward who ran away from the problem. It’s better that I face it and I would definitely improve this factory. When I arrived at the office, I found no female workers were around. There were mainly middle-aged men who worked for more than decades. No wonder the productivity was extremely low here.They all stood and greeted me."You may sit down.." I gestured and went to the cabin. I quickly called the Manager of the industrial department. He entered, and I heard he was a middle-aged misogynist person who thinks women are no better at industrial processes. "Mr. Silver. Why are there no females in the office?" I asked him, He scratched his forehead. I stared at him with a suspicious gaze

    Ashley POV"Doctor, how is Grandma? Is she getting better?" Dylan rushed to the doctor immediately. "The surgery is successful. But we need to keep her in observation, she is out of danger for now." Doctor said, "Thank you, doctor," Dylan said and wiped his face. It looked like a heavy burden was lifted from his heart. He seemed relieved and better. I held his hand. Dylan turned to me and hugged me tightly. "Thank god!" He muttered, "She would be walking in a few days. Don't you worry about it?" I said, He went to the glass window and watched Grandma lying on the bed. She was surrounded by heavy equipment and looked extremely weak. "Do you know it was her who accepted an orphan like me in the Marcov family? Everyone was against her but she accepted me anyway. She never let me feel that I was adopted. She loved me wholeheartedly." Dylan spoke, I rested my hand on his shoulder. I realised why Grandma meant him so much. He values the people who were with him when he had nothing.
