He didn't spend up to a minute here” I replied and he looked back at the so called Nick’s direction before looking back at me.“Are you sure he didn't say anything else to you?” he asked and I frowned because why was he acting so paranoid about a short conversation that I had with a stranger?“He didn't. Just introduced himself to me and walked away after realizing we’re married” I said and he sighed before taking a seat beside me.“He's the son of a weapon merchandiser and his father is a son of a bitch so we don't get along. Be careful with your words if he returns to speak to you” he said and all I could think about was that for the first time, he was telling me things. It felt so unreal.“Taylor?” He
CHAPTER 38TAYLOR I took one last swipe at the bottom of my lips to get rid of the smeared lipstick and once I did that, the makeup was perfect. I looked good and I liked what I saw in the mirror.With a smile, I walked back to bed to get the shoes I chose earlier that morning and after putting them on, I was ready. So I grabbed my purse and made my way out to the living room and Michael was there already.Halting his conversation with Fernandez, he looked my way while I walked toward them and I watched his gaze wash all over my body from head to toe before he looked back up at my face and I could feel myself getting hot already.Quickly, I briefly looked away to get a grip on myself. Then I looked back at him to see he was still watching me very closely and I gave an awkward smile. These days, he had been watching me too much for me to consider as normal but I never bothered to ask him why he did so because I knew he wouldn't give me an answer. So ignoring my curiosity, I walked c
CHAPTER 37TAYLORWork came to an end and thankfully , Michael never asked me why I didn't head Cassia’s office to learn from her.We walked to his car where it waited in the parking lot and when he got there, he collected the car key from Fernandez which left me confused.“Fernandez will drive you to your place while I'll go on my own. You should get ready fast because I'll be there in the next two hours to get you” he said and I nodded in understanding. Then he got into the car without another word, turned it on and drove off, leaving just me and Fernandez there in the parking lot.“Is there a spare car or will we be walking back?” I asked Fernandez jokingly and he shook his head, clearly not getting the joke and I got rid of my smile.“There's another car because the boss always keeps a spare in case the other one gets faulty. Just wait here and I'll drive it over here to get you” he replied and I nodded.“Okay. I'll wait here” And with that, he walked away to get the car so I wa
CHAPTER 36TAYLORMrs Lewis was very happy to see us and I couldn't tell why.As usual, she whisked me away to the dressing room and there, she brought me five dresses to choose from.I took my time to check them all while having it in mind that Michael wanted me to look sophisticated beside him. So I picked the prettiest dress there, not caring to check the price.“I'll take this one, Mrs Lewis” I told her while handing her the dress and her eyes shone as she took it from me.“Of course, Mrs Rover. It will be packed up immediately after you pick your shoes” she replied and I nodded in reply.Then she led me over to where the shoes were on display and after taking my time to check them all, I picked a pair of heels which caught my attention and she handed it over to an employee.“I'd like to choose a purse too” I told her and she chuckled awkwardly.“He only said you needed a dress and pair of shoes” she replied while referring to Michael and I fixed her a look.“Well, I said I want t
CHAPTER 35TAYLORThree days later, Fernandez still kept to his words. Michael didn't get a wind of what happened between me and Cassia and I was so thankful to him for that. I didn't care if it was wrong of me to hide Cassia’s confrontation away from Michael because he was probably going to blame me for everything. The same way he did with Blair.Lucky for me, he'd seemed so busy for the past few days so he never asked me about what I'd learnt from Cassia and I was always careful to not bring it up even by accident.The fourth day came and as usual, I got ready, left the room and headed for the kitchen where Fernandez busied himself with making breakfast for the two of us.“Good morning” I chirped while taking a seat on one of the chairs by the kitchen island and he peered back at me before flipping the egg he was frying.“Good morning” he replied and I smiled at him.“It's a good thing you offered to stay over last night. I slept with less fear of getting killed in my sleep” I told
CHAPTER 34TAYLORI took only a few steps away from the office before a hand suddenly grabbed me by the arm from behind and I turned around to see it was Cassia. She looked furious as she glared at me and looked like she was about to lunge at me and my heart thundered while I glared back at her.“Let go of my hand” I hissed and she smirked before tightening her grip and taking a closer step toward me.“You will not tell Mr Rover anything about what happened” she said and I eyed her.“What makes you think that I won't?” I asked her and her smirk grew wider. This time, she displayed her teeth at me and it made me wonder what exactly she had in mind.“Because if you do, I'm going to tell every single worker in this company that the CEOs wife is having an affair with his bodyguard. Seeing as Mr Rover doesn't seem like he really cares about you, this marriage is definitely going to be over and his precious bodyguard will be fired because of you”She threatened and I almost lunged at her b
CHAPTER 33TAYLORFew seconds after Michael left, there was a knock on the door. Then it was pushed open and Fernandez walked inside.“I thought you were going to leave with him” I said to him as I referred to Michael and he shook his head.“I stayed back to keep watch over you” he replied and I nodded my head.“You should be heading to Miss Frost's office by now. The boss told you to do so before leaving” he said and I eyed him before getting up and walking toward him.“I know and I'm going there” I snapped and with that, I pulled the door open and walked past him to leave the office.He walked right behind me as I made my way to Cassia Frost's office and when I reached the door, I stopped. I didn't know if I as mentally ready to face a vicious bitch like her but if Michael said I should meet her, then I had to meet her. So I dragged in a short breath to get myself ready to face her and immediately Fernandez reached his hand out for the door, I remembered when she asked me if we wer
CHAPTER 32TAYLORWe reached the company and Fernandez stopped right in front of the hilding so I and Michael could get out and bodyguards surrounded us immediately we got out of the car.They followed us until we were inside the building before dispersing. Then Michael took my hand and led us to the elevator specially for him, the president and we both entered.In silence, it moved up to the floor where his office was and once the doors slid open, I didn't wait for him to take my hand. I stepped out on my own and walked over to his office and seconds later, he joined me.“You seem to be in a bad mood this morning. Did something happen?” He asked me and I was about to tell him that I was fine but I couldn't bring myself to.A part of me wanted to let him know about the nightmares I struggled with just to see if he would care or not. So I raised to look at him while he stood before me and I swallowed.“I've been having nightmares” I began and he frowned.“About what?” He asked and I lo
CHAPTER 31TAYLOR Pouring myself a glass of water in the kitchen, many questions ran through my mind.First question I had was why Michael kept on staring at me like that back in the car when I was dropped off. I also couldn't stop thinking about what he was thinking while looking at me with such an unreadable gaze.The questions kept burning me in the depth of my mind and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake it off because it greatly bothered me.Then the second question that dwelled in my mind was Blair. There was a knowing look that she and Michael shared that night when we went over for dinner and I knew that it had to mean something.I was very curious to know what meaning was behind the look they shared and why she even looked at him that way when she was his brother's fiance. I couldn't get it off my mind either because it seemed suspicious. “Ugh! This is going to make my head hurt” I painfully groaned while palming my forehead in distress and I drank a few gulps of w
CHAPTER 1TAYLORI sneezed first when my consciousness returned, and then I groaned in pain as I felt a sharp ache in the back of my head. Immediately, the dryness in my throat completely woke me up, and all I could think about was getting myself a glass of water, but I couldn't move when I tried to.I'd never felt so painfully heavy in my life. My body felt like lead, and no matter how many times I tried to get up from my knees, I couldn't. It was like I'd been drugged to stay put, and I panicked internally. Realizing my hands were bound together with chains, I tried to cry out for help, but there was a piece of clothing in my mouth. Then I attempted to open my eyes, but they were blindfolded, and my heart sank upon the discovery that I'd been held hostage.My breaths suddenly became shallow. Fear seeped into my veins and filled my head with horrific images as each second passed, and tears stung my eyes the longer I struggled with the clattering chains that held my hands in bondage...
