LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter eighty six
KAMARIA POVShe didn’t hesitate to answer. “I want you to come back,” she stared directly at me as she said the words like her eyes will help me understand what the hell she is talking about. “Excuse me!” I was confused. “I know you two are divorced, and I know you have got no reason to help us, but I am asking.”Though her demeanour was softened she still tried to maintain her haughty nature so as not to come off like she was begging me for something. I believed that is the best please I am going to get out of Carolyn Black. She has had said everything she wanted to say, but there was still something missing out. “And his wife?”Carolyn’s expression turned sour. Oh oh. Trouble in paradise. Am I a bad person for feeling a little giddy that Damien’s marriage might be experiencing trouble? I think God will understand. “That skank left him,” Carolyn growled, her eyes full of anger and retribution. “Oh” That was the only thing I could say. Not that it surprised me that the model
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter eighty seven: The elephant in the room
DAMIEN POVI am tired of being poked and probed by every strangers that walks through my doors like I am piece of meet without any consideration for my feelings. They all act like I should be grateful that I didn’t die in the accident. I get it, but being in the wheelchair and being told what to do isn’t fucking easy also and I wish someone will fucking get it. This isn’t me! Being this weak and pathetic is eating into my soul.I just fired the last fool that tried to control me. The imbecile thought because I was in a chair that he could get away with running his mouth rudely. I am going to make sure he never works again. I lifted the wine bottle from the floor and took another heavy gulp. Alcohol have been my saving grace since I came home from the hospital, especially after Lily walked out. The inside of my heart felt as if it was on fire, the rage swirling inside me at the thought of that ingrate made me see red. I can’t believe she abandoned me so callously. “Fucking wheelch
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter eighty eight: Is he alright?
KAMARIA POV I am honestly shocked at the state I found Damien. I knew he was going to struggle with having to be in the wheelchair, but I didn’t know it was going to be this bad. Not only has he lost weight, he looks to be in the worse state I have ever seen him. I did my best to make sure he doesn’t see the pity I was feeling inside. He will order me out and this time never let me back in again. No one likes to be pitied, especially someone as proud as Damien. I dropped the glass in my hand on the shinny artistic centre table and relaxed back against the sofa. I didn’t want drink much because I will be driving back. “Your mother asked me for help,” I answered his question, chancing a look at him. He choked on his drink and proceeded to gawk at me with a dramatic shocked look on his face that I found very funny. I laughed. “My mother, Carolyn Black came to you for help!” he interjected in between my laughter sounding like he couldn’t believe it. “Shocked me as well,” I stopped
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter eighty eight: Jumping to the wrong conclusion
DAMIEN POVI felt lighter after she left. Shocking right? I didn’t expect her but her being here made me feel better. I took out my phone and dialled my mother’s number. “I can explain,” she said immediately she came on the phone. I guess she already knows why I am calling and thinks I am mad. I don’t blame her. I was livid but it turns out that it wasn’t all bad the few minutes we spent together. I don’t think Kamaria and I have spent that amount of time with together without being at each other’s throat before. Being with her today felt different. We might have started on a wrong foot but it straightened out as the day progressed. Maybe because I didn’t see the pity in her eyes that the others give me. “I am listening ma,” I said in a flat tone, not sounding mad, not sounding happy either. My neutral response confused and rendered her speechless. “I am not mad mum,” I said into the phone when the silence lingered. “You are not! Does that mean she didn’t come? That bitch! I kno
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter ninety: He said the magic words
KAMARIA POV I woke up this morning with certain feel of excitement that I couldn’t pin point the reason why, but I had this bout of energy that had me up very early and on the move. I woke Davina, whom as I predicted yesterday looked tired and grumpy. I got her ready for school and called the office to inform them that I wouldn’t be coming in today. I will be helping out Damien with the hire this morning. I forgot to tell him when I will be dropping by, but I figured it doesn’t matter since I am going to be early anyways. I ignored the little spark of excitement that hit my inside at the thought of seeing him. Whatever that is it is just gladness from not having to be in bad terms with the father of my kid. At least now I can rest without having to watch my back wondering the next stunt Damien will pull. I don’t know where this our budding truce will lead, but I am willing to see how it goes. “Mum, why haven’t uncle Reign called us in a while?” Davina asked as we drove towards he
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter ninety one: What do you feel for me?
DAMIEN POVAll through out the interview I couldn’t abide Kamaria’s coldness. She barely looked at me and acted as if she couldn’t wait to leave. I didn’t want things to end like this between us. I liked the rapport we had yesterday, and I think I prefer not to have us at cross hairs anymore. If for nothing else for our daughter. With that in my mind I said the magic words. “I am sorry.”I don’t think she was expecting it. The shocked look on her face was pretty hilarious but I didn’t laugh. Saying it the first time was hard enough, do I have to repeat it. In the spaces of twenty four hours she has made me apologise twice. Don’t know whether that is a good influence or not. “I am sorry,” I repeated after taking a deep breath. She didn’t respond and just stared at me so I continued. “You were right when you didn’t show up early I assumed the worst of you, and it is nobody fault except mine.”I didn’t want to dive into the whole mess th
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter ninety two: He shocked me with his apology
KAMARIA POV Again I was trying to prove a point, being in the moment but his question caught me of guard. I can’t answer that honestly, then again I have already started down this road, and can’t ignore the question. “Forget I said anything, just know that I don’t pity you,” I rushed out and got to my feet, my face on fire. Please let it go. “This crap actually taste good,” Damien moaned.I looked down to see him eating his tacos, and a smile of relief appeared on my face. Thank God.“I told you so,” I smirked at him feeling proud for being right. “Does this mean we aren’t leaving?” I looked hopefully at him. I will hate for our plans to be destroyed by some jerk ass who isn’t worth anyone’s time.“Yes,” he smiled once again reminding me how gorgeous he is. My heart skipped a beat and I quickly looked away to avoid being sucked in by his good looks. I need to keep my guard up and remember that Damien can
LOVE BY CONTRACT Chapter ninety three: What is going on between you two?
DAMIEN POVShe stopped the car a little bit far from the house and stared toward my mother with a weird look on her face, and her hands holding tightly to the steering. “Is something wrong?” I asked gently, my eyes focused on her face. I know she and mother never got along, the reason why mother told few months ago, but with the their recent meeting I thought things will be easier between them. “I don’t know if I am up to meeting her,” she muttered softly underneath her voice. She wouldn’t look at me. I don’t know what the problem is. She and mother already met, and if she agreed to help me at mother’s behest shouldn’t it be that they resolved their issues first? “I thought you have already met,” I teased, trying to make her smile. She didn’t. If anything she looked a bit unease. “Yeah, well… “ “Well what?” I am a little confused as to what she is afraid. A sheepish expression appeared on her face befor
