CHAPTER 48TAYLOR “I should give the food out right? I mean, He yelled at me despite how I took my time to clean his wound for him. He didn't even tell me thank you. Can you imagine that?” I ranted nonstop to Mane who was busy with his lunch and I sighed as I rested my head on my knees. I'd never felt so helplessly angry and I wished there was a way I could let my frustration out.Sighing again, I ran my fingers through my rough hair, hoping it would help me calm down but it did nothing. All I felt was restlessness and I groaned out in even more frustration. Then I grabbed my phone and began to scroll through it endlessly while wondering what I could do to pass time until Fernandez would arrive and right then, I heard the door beep repeatedly.So I rushed out to see him and I stopped when I saw it was Michael. I stood by the passageway while he stood by the door and we both just stared at each other for a moment.“Aren't you acting too excited just to see Fernandez?” He finally spo

CHAPTER 49TAYLORAs I walked into the living room, I couldn't raise my eyes to meet Michael's. The embarrassment was still fresh in the back of my mind and at the same time, I could also feel his eyes on me and it unnerved me.I wished I could run back into my room and lock the door but I couldn't.So I resolved to instead, be quick with dressing up his wound and dash away.So I returned to his front and knelt down before him. Inhaling and exhaling to steady my racing heart, I grabbed the disinfectant in the box to clean my hands and when I was done, I accidentally made eye contact with him only to see he was still watching me and I quickly looked away.“Please stop looking at me like that” I whispered and he bent to look me in the eyes. My heart stopped when he did that and quickly, I diverted my gaze but he caught my face and made me look at him and I forgot how to breathe.“How am I looking at you, Taylor?” he asked and I blinked. I was definitely not going to talk about the look

CHAPTER 50MICHAEL Pretty grey eyes, small cupid lips, a small round nose and those adorable bangs that always graced her forehead.That was all I could think about as I laid back in bed and stared up at the ceiling. She was right there… just a room away from me but I couldn't bring myself to make a move.Not after I'd told her that I wouldn't touch her unless she asked for it. Taylor intrigued me in ways that I didn't understand. There was just something so innocent and pure about her that continuously drew me in but at the same time, I had to fight it off for the same reasons.She was pure and innocent. I was dark and tainted, carried the blood of many on my hands and lived a life with no future in sight.I could be killed at any moment and that would be it for me and her.So it was best I started nothing at all. To protect her from me and give her the chance to someone better than me with a future to look forward to together. It was best that way.Besides, I'd had enough experien

CHAPTER 51TAYLORNighttime came way faster than I anticipated and I dreaded going back into that mansion to see Michael's family but I didn't have much of a choice.I had to do whatever Michael wanted without questioning it so if he wanted me to come along for a family dinner, then I would have to tag along.So when he returned from work, I knew it was time to get ready.I picked out the most expensive looking dress amongst the ones he got me and wore it. Then I styled my hair into waves and held it up in a high ponytail before I let my bangs down. With that, I did something simple on my face as makeup and put my shoes on before I grabbed my purse and joined Michael in the living room where he waited after changing into his clothes too.I could feel the heat of his gaze on me the closer I walked toward him and something about the look in his eyes made the thumping of my heart feel like my chest was about to explode.“I'm ready” I told him after making up my mind to face anyone who t

CHAPTER 52TAYLOR"You seem to be really happy being married to Michael” Blair began while smiling at me, her hands folded over her chest and u eyed her suspiciously because that couldn't be all she had to say to me.“Am I supposed to be sad?” I asked her and she chuckled before walking past me into the bathroom to rinse her hands in one of the sinks and she looked at me while the tap ran and the water poured over her hands.“You don't know Michael that well, Taylor. Right?” she asked me and I frowned because I had no idea what she was talking about. Why on earth would she ask me if I knew Michael that well. What exactly did she know?“I don't care about whatever you say, Blair. So keep them to yourself and stay away from me too” I replied and she laughed heartily like something hilarious just happened when nothing was in fact funny.“Oh really, Taylor? Is that what you think or what you're trying to make yourself believe? Because I don't think you actually don't care about what I wan

CHAPTER 53 TAYLOR Michael finally joined me in the living room and after bidding Mane goodbye, I grabbed my bag and together, we left for the parking lot to get into the car. Fernandez drove and when we arrived at the company, we headed straight to the conference room because we were quite late and the executives were all waiting already. Together with Michael, we both walked into the room and immediately they saw me, they all went quiet. I began to scan the hall with my eyes and I stopped walking when they fell on Carlos, Michael's brother. He occupied the chair which once belonged to Cassia and he too was watching with hawk eyes. He had a sly smile on his face and his eyes looked so devious that anyone could tell he was plotting something. I couldn't help but wonder what he was doing there and when I looked at Michael who stood beside me, he too was glaring at Carlos with wary eyes. It was obvious that we were both thinking the same thing. Michael began to walk toward his ch

CHAPTER 54 TAYLOR “You really want to know what I'm thinking about, huh?” I asked him while trying to look tough even though I was cowering In fear deep inside and he eyed my face. “You heard me the first time” he replied and I sighed while folding and unfolding my hands as anxiety rolled over me like a blanket. I was still contemplating on whether to actually ask him what was on my mind or to just lie about it. I was confused and scared of what his reaction would be once I let it out of my mouth. But then a thought occurred to me. I realized that there was no way I was going to get the answers I wanted so badly if I didn't ask the question that weighed down on my mind right then. So I decided to take the opportunity and ask him regardless of what would happen afterward. He asked for it so he was going to get it… even though I had no idea why he was so curious about what I thought. “I'm talking to you, Taylor” he pulled me out of my reverie and I sighed in defeat. Then I took a

CHAPTER 55 TAYLOR Walking into the penthouse, Michael got to the door and waited for me to walk in. Then he shut the door after me and just as he walked past me to head for his room, I called for him and he turned around to face me. “I'm going to make dinner after I change my clothes. Is there anything you'd like to eat?” I asked him and he shook his head. “Don't worry about dinner tonight, Taylor. I'm good” he turned down my offer to get him something to eat and I was the one who shook my head this time. “But you haven't had anything today. Even during lunch, you were away for a meeting” I said and he sighed. “I'll decide if I want to eat or not, Taylor. Drop it” he replied and with that, he walked away. Standing alone in the living room, I felt conflicted between listening to him or my guts. I knew he was starving. Maybe it was Carlos who spoiled his mood and made him lose appetite. Or maybe it was something else, I couldn't say. All I knew was that my parents or grandpa nev

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
