[ Denise's POV ]I was more than shocked to see Mavis's Dad standing at the door. I literally didn't expect him to come to Mavis's house, since they weren't on good terms."Are you just going to stand there looking at me, or are you going to let me in?" Mavis's Dad said, in a hateful voice."I am sorry Dad" I said, opening the door wide open for him to enter the house."Are you out of your senses? Or did you by chance forget your brain in your family's house?" He asked, looking at me with so much hate. I don't know why he was looking at me that way, or why he was insulting me, but nevertheless I beamed a smile at him."I didn't" I said, smiling."If you didn't forget your brain, then I guess you are just born stupid. Why will you call me Dad, do I look like your father?" He asked."You are Mavis's dad, I was just respecting you, by calling you Dad" I said."Shut up that rotten mouth of yours. Did you see me at your wedding with my son? It clearly means that I didn't accept you as my s
[ Mavis's POV ]The reason why I left the house earlier was because I got a call from the spy I hired to spy on my dad. I went back to my room to change into a hoodie, because I was feeling cold, when I got a call from him, saying he had some information to tell me.I didn't tell Denise where I was going, because I don't want her to be involved in this. The only way I can protect Denise is not letting her find out about my plans.I arrived at the bar where I was supposed to meet him, and we were attended to by the bartender. "So what information do you have about my Dad?" I asked."Your dad was in Cuba during the incident that happened to Denise" He said."What do you mean?" I asked him."What I am trying to say is that he was in Cuba at that time Denise fell inside the pool" "He must have sent someone to do the work for him. My father is a crook, so I am sure he sent someone that day to push Denise inside the pool, and cover up his dirty scheme, by saying he was in Cuba that day" I
[ Mavis's POV ]The kiss lasted for a very long time. I didn't want to break the kiss, because I was enjoying the sweet tasty flavor from Denise's lips. I was lying when I said her lips sucks, her lips had the strawberry taste, that keeps you longing for more. Our heads turn left and right as we kiss so passionately. I was about deepening the kiss more, when Denise broke the kiss. Our breath was loudly heard, because of the hot kiss we shared.I raised my hand, and it landed perfectly on Denise's face, and Denise looked at me. "Don't hesitate to call me anytime my dad drops by, I will leave whatever I am doing and come back. So don't ever hide it from me, about my dad coming here, okay" I said, and Denise nodded her head. I smiled lightly and patted her head."Have you eaten?" I asked"I am not hungry, Mavis, I just want to rest," She said."Alright then" I said. I stood up from the bed, and tried to carry Denise, but Denise snuggled backwards."What are you doing?" She asked."You sa
[ Denise's POV ]I felt sorry for Mavis after he told me what happened to Ava, and how his Dad was a mastermind to the death of his wife and unborn child, and I fully understood why Mavis hated his dad so much. I also understood why he pinned me to the wall so aggressively after I talked ill about Ava. He must have really loved his wife, and it was really cruel for Mavis's dad to do that to Ava, just because she is from a poor breed, since when did being poor become a crime? I thought to myself.I was still trying to find a way to console Mavis for making him remember the past, when the doorbell rang. I and Mavis went downstairs to check who was at the door, and it turns out to be Mavis's mom."Mom, you should have entered the house instead of knocking," Mavis said to his mom."I just felt like it," She said and entered the house. Mavis's mom looked at me before talking. "Why did you punch your father?" She asked, and my heart pounded so rapidly. What if she hates me because her son
[ Denise's POV ]I stared at Mavis's mom not knowing what to say. I knew she was going to ask something about Mavis, but I never knew she was going to ask me to make Mavis Fall in Love with me. Like how am I going to do that, when Mavis has thrown his heart in the middle of the ocean where it can never be found."Denise" Mavis's mom called my name, and I slowly turned my head to look at her. "What do you say about my favor?" She asked."I am sorry Mom, but I can't do it" I said, because I myself know that I can make Mavis fall in love with me."Why can't you do it Denise?""Because Mavis still loves his wife so much. Just like you said, our relationship is fake, I and Mavis started off with a rough patch, and we don't feel anything for each other" I said."Aren't you confident that you can make Mavis forget about his late wife and fall in love with you?" She asked, and I looked at her, and shook my head. "I can't make Mavis fall in love with me," I said."You are beautiful Denise""Be
[ Mavis's POV ]Jake left my company, after I told him I was never going to give Denise back to him. Even if I and Denise decide to push through with the contract, I will make sure she never goes back to Jake, because he is a coward. I was happy and sad at the same time. Happy that I made Jake see what it felt like to lose someone you love, and I was sad that soon I am going to divorce Denise. It's just a three month deal, and as if the world was flying like the wind, it has already been a month since I got married to Denise.I sighed, swiping my hair to the back, and Ethan entered my office. "Boss" He said, and I raised my face to look at him."I am sorry I couldn't handle the situation," he said."It's fine Ethan, don't apologize for any thing, what matters is that he has left already" I said."Does that mean you are not mad at me?""No I am not mad at you Ethan, you did a great job when you called me, saying Jake was making a scene" I said, and Ethan smiled, happy that I compliment
[ Denise's POV ]I was still waiting patiently for Mavis to come home, because Leo told me he was at his company, so I decided to wait for him so we could discuss what to do now that his parents already know the truth about our marriage. I wasn't happy that I turned down Mavis's mom's favor, but it was kind of the right thing to do. I don't want to make Mavis fall in love with me, and in the end I won't love him back, and besides, I don't even know how to make a man fall in love with me, because I am not a seductress.The doorbell rang, waking me up from my thoughts. I sighed and went to open the door, thinking that Mavis was finally home, but it turned out to be Jake and not Mavis."What are you doing here Jake?" I asked, and Jake looked at me with a sullen face, indicating he had been crying."Can I talk to you for a few minutes?" He asked."I don't want to talk to you Jake, so go home" I said, trying to close the door, but Jake held the side of the door, preventing me from closing
[ Denise's POV ]I went to Mavis's room, after I dismissed Jake. I stood at Mavis's doorstep crimping my hands, anticipating whether to knock on the door or not. After a few seconds of standing at the door, I knocked on the door, but no response came from Mavis. I knocked on the door again, but Mavis didn't utter a word, and after I knocked on the door the third time, and he didn't say a word for me to come in, I entered the room at my own will.I met Mavis sitting on the couch in his room, reading a book. "Didn't you hear when I was knocking?" I asked."No I didn't" He answered."Can we talk?""No we can't, I am reading" He said, not looking at my face. I looked at the book in his hand, and it was turned upside down, which meant he wasn't reading the book, he just used the book to cover his face, so he wouldn't look at me."Really? Are you reading or are you trying to avoid looking at my face?" I asked."I am reading Denise. Go back to your room and leave me alone" He said. I walked
