They walked out of the garden and towards the garage where Dylan's luxury cars were parked. They took the SUV because that's where Emma's car seat was and it had enough space for the three of them. Dylan insisted on driving his family himself and then his security took another car and followed behind them. Emma was buckled in her car seat and she sat down, all her attention was on her iPad where she watched her cartoons while Anna sat in the passenger seat next to Dylan. “So where would you like to go first?” Dylan asked Anna as he drove and kept his eye on the road. “I don't understand,” Anna told him she was confused. “Well I mean which of the stores do you want to start from, we could go to the mall, most of the designer brands have shops there or we could go down to 5th Avenue where all of them are,” Dylan answered her. Anna just stared at him, she couldn't believe that this was her life now, she was so used to going to the thrift store to get her
An hour later, Dylan parks the car at the underground parking lot at the mall. It took them up to an hour because there was traffic. They didn't talk much after Dylan told Anna the reason he built his mansion in the suburbs, Emma got cranky so Anna had to go to the back seat to stay with her. Anna and Dylan got out of the car, Dylan opened the back seat unbuckled Emma from her car seat, and carried her down, he set her on the floor but he still held her hand. His security men came down from where they parked their car and walked towards them. “Do they have to follow us?” Anna asked Dylan. “Yes they do, it's for our safety,” Dylan told her but she still didn't like it. “But we're at the mall Dylan and no one know about me and you yet, I think we will draw more attention to ourselves if people see us with bodyguards,” Anna told Dylan and he had to admit that she had a point, he had never gone out like this before, if he wanted anything, Lucas usually took
James was back at work in his own office at the company and not back at his home office. Just because Dylan won the first round didn't mean that he would stay home and cower. If he wanted his father's blessing to marry Anna he still had to get Prestige, his company, to be number one in the world. There was a knock on his door and then Liam walked in. “Liam you better have some good news for me.” James told him. Liam walked up to James desk, with his tablet in hand. “Yes sir, I think you'll be happy with what I've found.” Liam said to James. “Ok, take a seat and tell me what you've found.” James said. “Well I looked at all three of Kings enterprise subsidiaries and the best one for us to go after is the pharmaceutical one.” Liam said and then handed a file over to James. “As you can see there, the pharmaceutical section is more open to corporate espionage that the other two sections. They currently have a drug that is in development for high blood
After Dylan, Anna, and Emma got back from the mall, Anna and Emma went up to their rooms to wash up and get some rest before dinner, but Dylan went into his home office to catch up on some work and reply to emails. Dylan put on his laptop and was just about to get to work when his phone rang, he looked down at the caller ID and saw that it was Lucas. He picked it up. “Good evening Lucas, is there a reason you're calling this late at night?” Dylan asked him. “Good evening sir, I'm sorry for interrupting your night, but it's an emergency,” Lucas said, and when Dylan heard the word emergency, that got his full attention. “What is it? What's the emergency?” Dylan asked. “It's Lyon,” Lucas said and just the sound of his brother's name made Dylan's blood boil with rage. “What about him?” Dylan asked. “Well, he seems to be still very persistent on getting Mr. Scott's will and altering it. The law firm that took care of your father's last will
After Dylan left her alone in the dining room, Anna sat down there trying to come to gems with what Dylan had just told her. She knew that she had to marry him, and she had agreed. But still, now that it was this close, it was a different thing. It was one thing saying that you were going to do something, but then going through with it was another thing altogether. Then there was Dylan who was behaving differently, when didn't know if this was just him being in a mood or if this was how he was going to be moving forward. She shouldn't complain I mean it's not like he was maltreating her or stepping out on her like James did. He had done most of what he promised, he took care of her and Emma and he was also a very good father to Emma, she could tell that her little girl already loved him so much. So she shouldn't be complaining about his attitude towards her, but still, it hurt. Somewhere in her mind, she had thought that this arrangement might move from a contract to so

James came back home and he noticed that Kendra's car was parked in his garage. He wasn't expecting her, and he didn't tell her to come over, had it been any other day, he would be angry, but today after the things he just found out about Dylan, he felt like celebrating and Kendra was a good fuck, that is when she wasn't talking. He walked into the house, expecting her to be in her room but he could hear her voice coming from the kitchen. “Oh baby, you're home.” Kendra squealed when she saw James and then went to hug him, he didn't even bother pushing her off like he normally would, because he was too stunned by the sight that greeted him. There were different kinds of food laid out on the table and all the candles were lit up. When he finally recovered from his shock, he pushed Kendra off him. “Kendra, what exactly is going on here?” He asked her, he tried to maintain a cool exterior, but on the inside, he was seething with anger. “Oh baby did you forget,
Dylan was back at his office, a part of him felt bad for leaving or rather sneaking out of the house that morning to avoid Anna, but it had to be done. Somehow in just the few days that they had spent together, Anna was able to breach the walls that he had built up around himself ever since he lost his parents. He couldn't let that happen yes he admits that he does care about her but he can't let it go any further, after a year their contract runs out, and he'll have everything he wants and she'll be gone. He wasn't meant for love, tragedy always came to those who loved him, starting with his parents and then Mr. Scott. He wouldn't let that happen to Anna. He spent most of his day, going through his emails and attending meetings that he couldn't have on video chat when he would be in London. Everything was looking well, all three branches of Kings Enterprise were in the green and the Pharmaceutical branch was close to releasing a drug that would take them to the
