As soon as she came back to her room, she cuddled herself in the bed. Sinking her face inside the pillow, she was trying to hide the guilt she had been feeling. She didn't know how to overcome her frustration. Each and every cell in her body was attracted to Dawson, she couldn't forget his touch. It was very difficult to admit that she became obsessed with his toxic masculinity. He was a total psycho, and hurted her many times yet she couldn't feel that spark with any other man. Smith was decent and polite, he couldn't evoke her desires like the way Dawson did. It was very inappropriate to compare them but it was what it was. She had to get rid of her sinful thoughts so she forced herself to accept Smith's relationship offer. It was the only way to live a peaceful life. But yet another hurdle was awaiting her as she got shivers at a mere thought of meeting him at Monday. It was unimaginable for her, that how he will react and how she will face him. Its been months since she turn
As soon as they were done with food, he waved the waiter to pay the bill. The waiter almost came to them instantly, handed over the book. "If you wouldn't had proposed me today, I would certainly have paid my own bill" she said to him, giving him a smirk. "Sure you did as if I had let it happen" he returned her a promising smile. She laughed while he handed over his credit card to the waiter. As soon his credit card was handed over to him, they both got up. Leading in the way out, he took keys from the valet and sat inside on the driver seat, Elizabeth following on passenger seat beside him. "I hope you enjoyed my company, in this starry night" he wanted to have her opinion on his sudden announcement and overall attitude. "To be honest, it was not even the least I could expect from you. You seemed so arrogant and full of yourself, the last time I met you. I hope this marriage satisfies my father who is eager to marry me off to some billionaire these days" she replied, speaking t
She needed to look special, giving him off the idea that she was doing so much better without him. She picked up her favourite dress, she bought the day before. The back suit with a black pencil skirt was everything she needed to look sexy and beautiful at the same time giving off bossy vibes. She painted her lips with a matte maroon and swinging her liner with a wing, she straightened her hair down which she got from sister Amelia. Sliding her bag across her shoulder, she stepped out. Catching the earliest bus in the morning, she didn't minded walking in high heels to the company. Although her feet hurt slightly but it's all what girls have to bear to look perfect from every angle. She was met with Velvet at the entrance and she obviously appreciated her look. She felt confident and energetic at the start of the day. She waited for Smith to come while she prepared all the contract documents which needed to be taken to the Dawson enterprises. As her slender fingers worked on the l
"Ruby can can you bring over the documents to Mr Dawson, so he'll take a good look at our terms and conditions" Smith asked, averting his direction towards Ruby who only focused on gazing the marble floor rather than looking into his scary orbs. She fumbled with the files clumsily and finally after taking a hold onto them, she got up from her place. "Here" she said to Dawson as she forwarded the files to him. He looked up in her direction, staring right into her soul. Her hand started to tremble as she was getting magnetized to him. He took the file from her hand, releasing her from his torture. She finally breathed and sat down on her seat. While Dawson read the conditions, Ruby looked everywhere around the office except his face. Smith sat patiently, waiting for Dawson to finalize the contract. All this while Joseph returned with a female waiter, who dragged the trolley inside the room. Luscious cupcakes, cookies and sandwiches, everything laid like luxury on those silver pl
With an upset face, he walked down to his car while holding her belongings. He was quite annoyed that how can she be so irresponsible, leaving without a message and even leaving her phone behind. As he approached his car, he saw Ruby leaning against it and wiping something off her face. Not sure if she was crying, he felt the urge to barge at her once for her mistake. "Where were you Ruby? I have been looking for you all over!" He tried to stay calm and not be harsh towards her as he saw her eyes were wet. She remained silent for a moment when she saw him out of the blue. She tuck the strands of her hair behind her ear and avoided looking him in the eye. "I'm sorry, I felt uncomfortable there, so I came down and I forgot to tell you. I really am sorry for my carelessness" she apologized in a low voice. "What happened? Are you alright?" He was concerned for her. "Yeah, I just want to go home. Can you drop me?" She asked. "Yeah sure" As they both sat inside, she took her belong
She had been climbing floors like a superhero since the morning. Ordering food, check-in departments, setting the meeting room, and giving coffee to Smith, everything was like a mess. She had been going crazy over the phone who kept on ringing and ringing. Finally the clock was about to struck 11:30 and she didn't even had the time to sigh. She was more nervous than ever. She rubbed her sweaty palms on the back of her hip as she but her lip. Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, she brushed her hair with her fingers and redid her lipstick. Making sure she was ready to face her worst nightmare, she stepped out if the bathroom. Smith was quite in a hurry as he got a call from the front guest that the guest had already arrived in the parking lot. As soon he saw Ruby he immediately asked her to go down and welcome them. While Velvet take a final look at the meeting room and helped Smith with the files. With trembling legs, Ruby went down in the elevator. She had to look mature an
Throughout his presence, she didn't tried to look at him again. They talked about work, finalized the contract and left. She was relieved after a long day. Packing her things up, she was about to leave when Smith stopped her. "I have a news for you" he told her while inserting the keys in the engine as they both sat down inside the car. "What?" "Your house is completely ready now, let's get shifted today. I couldn't help you in shifting yesterday because we had an important meeting. But today seems to be the perfect day and we can spend time together too" he told her with a smile lurking on his face. Although she was glad as she heard about her house but spending time with him didn't seem like a good idea. She needed some alone time, to think, to understand what was happening around her. She wanted to start a relationship with him but not under such circumstances. He was not even aware that she has a son. Will he continue to love her after he'll know about it? "Thanks, I think t
She almost sighed when Smith didn't choose to stay over with her. He left early then she expected. As soon as they ate dinner which they had to order from outside, he remembered that he has to wake up early for office. In the mean time of night, she planned her schedule to visit Dawson tomorrow. She was desperate to see her baby. She also planned to take some gifts as she was going to meet him for the first time after his birth. Overwhelmed with all the excitement, she couldn't sleep all night. She constantly changed positions on bed but was unable to close her eyes and dive deep into the valley of sleep. And the most obvious reason was, she was already missing her son. She kept thinking about him, how old he must have grown, how he looks like, who takes care of him etc. She knew she has to avoid Smith at all costs tomorrow. She can't afford trouble and explanations on the most finest day of her life recently. *The next morning was more beautiful than she expected. As she cuddled
