CHAPTER 33

TAYLOR

Few 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 34 TAYLOR I 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

    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 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 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 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 39 TAYLOR “What was that man doing here?” Michael's voice suddenly came from behind me and I quickly looked back to see him standing behind my chair with a furious look in his eyes as he stared at me. “I don't know… he just introduced himself as Nick to me and I told him off. 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.

    CHAPTER 40TAYLORI didn't say a word. I just stayed quiet as I stared at him in fear of what he would do and the lady who spilled her drink on him rushed toward him with her hands clasped over her mouth.“Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry Michael. I didn't mean to” she rushed while staring at him wide eyed but she didn't look a bit sorry. Instead, her eyes carried nothing but pure lust while she looked at him and I quickly found myself getting disgusted by that one thing.Immediately she took a step toward him with her hands held out, I stepped in front of him without thinking it through and she stopped.“Who are you? I was about to help him wipe the stain off” she said with disdain and I scoffed.“I'm his wife, Mrs Rover and why would you want to wipe his shirt, are you a dry cleaner?” I fired at her and she opened her mouth to speak but couldn't provide any words.“Besides, it isn't Michael, it's Mr Rover to you” I corrected her and the disdain in her eyes increased as she looked me over f

    CHAPTER 41TAYLOR I scurried out of Fernandez’s room after I got a shirt that would look good on Michael. Then I rushed off to the living room where he waited and handed the shirt over to him while I struggled to look anywhere else but his bare body.“Thanks” he said as he collected the shirt and I nodded my head without saying a word before turning around to face my back toward him. I didn't want him teasing me any longer just because I stared at his muscles.“You can turn around now” he said from behind me and slowly, I turned around to face him and u was relieved to see that he'd worn the shirt.“I'll be leaving now but Fernandez will be here in a few hours to stay guard for the night. He told me that you get scared at night and even have nightmares when you're alone” He added and I closed my eyes in embarrassment while I cursed at Fernandez in my head because I never expected him to report even that to Michael.“Yeah. I do have nightmares but they lessened after he started stayi

    CHAPTER 76TAYLOR Deflated, I placed the schedule on Michael's desk before I left his office and walked back to my desk. Then I packed up my things to leave for the day and reaching the elevator, I saw Fernandez waiting.“Didn't you leave for a job?” I asked, surprised to see him.“I was told to take you home” he replied and I adjusted my bag on my shoulder. “Alright then. Let's go” I said and with that, we both got into the elevator and stood in silence as it went down to the parking lot.“What about your boss? Any idea where he rushed off to?” I asked and I felt his gaze on me while I stared ahead.“He left for an event. He was in a hurry because he's part of the hosts and he has to be there before it begins” he explained and I nodded as little of the hurt I was feeling started to go away once I knew why he ran out so fast like that.We arrived at the parking lot and Fernandez led me over to the car before he got the door to the backseat for me and I thanked him before getting in.

    CHAPTER 75TAYLORMonday morning came fast and I woke up with a heavy heart.I didn't want to leave my bed. In fact, I wanted to lock my door and keep to myself for the day along with Mane but I knew I couldn't do that.Selene was leaving and we were driving her back to the airport. It was going to be just me in that large penthouse again because even with Michael around, it made no difference… I was still lonely.With a sigh, I slowly pushed myself off my bed. Then I left for the bathroom where I brushed my teeth, took a shower and dressed up in a pair of flare pants along with a shirt which I had tucked in.Then I held my hair up in a loose ponytail before I applied a little makeup and once I was done, I wore my shoes, grabbed my bag and left for the living room to see Michael and Selene sharing a hug.Confused, I walked closer until they noticed me and I forgot myself when I made eye contact with Michael who was also looking at me.I didn't miss the way his eyes raked over my body

    CHAPTER 74MICHAEL I walked into the penthouse only to be welcomed with a dark living room and I figured that everyone must be asleep already.With a sigh, I made my way toward my room to rest for the night. Then I began to hear shuffling in the kitchen.There was suddenly a loud clang as a cup fell on the floor and I paused as I heard a voice mutter in the dark. Immediately, my defenses were awakened and I wondered if my house had been broken into as I pulled a gun out from beneath my shirt and slowly made my way to the kitchen.I held the gun out before me to attack if I had to. Then I reached for the switch to turn the light off and immediately I did, I saw it was Taylor and she had never looked so pale and frozen as she stared at the gun I had in her face with pure fear in her eyes.Quickly, I returned the gun into my pocket before I could reach for her shoulders to see if she was okay but she quickly took a step back as I held my hands out and there was suddenly a cold tension b

    CHAPTER 73TAYLORI couldn't meet Selene's teasing stare. She would stop smiling while looking at me and I knew what she was thinking already. I just didn't want to talk about it but I knew Selene. She was the sort of person who never took no for an answer and eventually had her way all the time.“So tell me… what was with the heated mood this morning? What happened between you and Michael while I was puking my insides out last night?” She asked, that same knowing smile still plastered to her face and I sighed as I zipped the first aid box open and took out the aspirin tablets there.I took two out of the packet. One for each of us and handed her one.“Michael told me to take care of us, so here. It'll take the headache away” I ignored her question and she narrowed her eyes at me before she took the tablet from my hand and swallowed after I handed her a glass of water too. Then she stood up and walked over to where I was to stand by my side and I sighed again. Couldn't she just let

    CHAPTER 72MICHAEL “Woah! Slow down, Alan. I haven't told you everything yet so don't ask me that question. It's too early” I quickly told him off and he gave me a knowing look.“Or are you just scared to own up to what you feel and admit to it by answering me?” He asked and I sighed.“Just listen to what I have to say first, Alan” I insisted and he leaned back in his chair.“Alright then. Go ahead” he said and I took a sip from my drink before I went ahead to explain myself.“I had no plans of taking things further with Taylor when I met her because she reminded me too much of Blair. I only bought her from that auction to get back at Blair and Carlos and I'm glad it worked” I scoffed and Alan chuckled. “But then… I don't know how it happened, Alan but I found myself getting along with her more than I anticipated and in the process, she fell for me”“How do you know that?” He asked and I looked at him.“She confessed to me while she was drunk yesterday” “Oh shit! She did?” he aske

    CHAPTER 71MICHAEL The guards standing by the door bowed their heads to me as I approached them and I nodded back at them in acknowledgement.“Is your boss in? I'm here to see him” I asked guard number one and he nodded his head.“He's inside and waiting for you, Mr Rover” he replied.Then he pushed open the door for me and I walked into the mansion which belonged to my long time friend and business partner, Alan Gustave. Taking a look around while I followed the butler who led me to where he was, I took note of the few changes he'd made in his living room and when we both reached the wine bar, the butler stopped.“Mr Gustave is in the wine bar, Mr Rover” the butler said before bowing his head and walking away and I entered the bar to see Alan seated by the island and drinking from a glass of wine.“Hey buddy. I see you're having a nice time by yourself. You're getting old already, huh” I teased him while walking toward him and taking a seat beside him and he scoffed at me as a smal

    CHAPTER 70MICHAEL Leaving my cup of coffee on the island, I stood up and straightened my shirt while Selene's question still hung in the air. I didn't plan on answering her to be honest and even though it was a Sunday, I needed to leave the house.I didn't trust myself enough to share the same space with Taylor too considering what happened between us the previous night. So I was taking my space elsewhere for a moment.“You guys aren't saying anything… That's suspicious” Selene said while she still held onto Taylor's arm as I walked toward them and I eyed her.“Take your medication, Selene. I'm sure your head hurts” I told her dismissively before walking out of the kitchen and I grabbed a car key while I headed toward the door.Then I heard her scoff loudly. “I'll make Taylor tell me everything!” She yelled before wincing while grabbing her head and Taylor held onto her tighter before we made eye contact again.“Take care of yourselves” I said to her and with that, I walked out of

    CHAPTER 69TAYLOR“You look like a mess, Taylor” was the first thing he said to me and I hiccuped. I was too shocked, embarrassed and scared to give a sensible reaction. “Are you okay? You look pale like you just saw a ghost” he looked me over with worry and I released a shaky breath this time before I began to wring my hands as I broke eye contact with him.“I'm… I'm fine” I lied even though my head felt like it was about to fall off my shoulders and he took a step closer to me, causing me to stiffen as he closed the small distance left between us.Raising a hand up, he pressed it against my forehead and I closed my eyes upon the contact. I couldn't for the life of me understand why he was acting so cool about last night when I literally pressed my lips against his.Then he pulled his hand away from my head and we looked at each other.“You're burning up. You need to take something to make you feel better” he noted and I wouldn't stop wringing my hands.It felt like he had an ulteri

    CHAPTER 68TAYLOROur bodies molded against each other while we devoured each other's mouths. Then we finally pulled away to catch our breaths and when we looked at each other, I could see the hunger in his eyes but I told myself I was only hallucinating because Michael Rover would never look at me like that.Quickly, my senses snapped me back to reality and I gasped as my eyes widened while I covered my mouth in absolute shock.“I… I didn't mean to…” I began but I was starting to feel tipsy and found it hard to stand straight.So Michael reached for my hand to hold me steady and Fernandez walked into the living room at that moment.“I've put Miss Selene to bed, boss. Can I leave now?” He asked and Michael dismissed him before he fixed his attention back on me after Fernandez was gone.“You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, Taylor” I heard him say, more like he was speaking to himself and with that, he picked me up again and carried me over to my room where he gently
