The next morning, William's eyes were blurry when he woke up, he noticed something different about his environment his bad was different and the room was different and he had a bad headache, he looked to the side but the woman lying next to him definitely wasn't Catherine but his hands were wrapped around her. The moment he realized it was Sophia, he let go immediately and pushed himself away from her angrily, he got out of the bed and realized he was half naked. He hurriedly searched for his phone and when he found it, it was almost 9 am the next day."Shit! Shit! Shit!" He cursed under his breath as he hurriedly picked his clothes up and put them on."William?" Vanessa called out in a husky voice while stretching out. She sat on the bed and leaned against the bed rest clutching tightly on the duvet, "William what are you doing?" She asked as she rubbed sleep away from her eyes."What does it look like I'm doing Vanessa?" William asked angrily as he buckled his belt hurriedly."You

CHAPTER FOURTY-THREE:At first, William was surprised that Catherine actually wanted to know where he went, he completely forgot where he was coming from and what he did and instantly a grin appeared on his face as he approached Catherine, he gently grabbed her hands. He started at him, bemused and wondering why he was smiling, "So you actually care." He said softly.Catherine immediately released herself off him as she folded her arms on her chest and casted a glare at him. "William, just because I'm asking doesn't mean I care."" So how come you're asking since you don't care?" William asked wearing a sneaky smile.Catherine cut her gaze off him and began to stammer. "I... I needed you to ... To help me get something on your way back. So where were you?"" I told you before Catherine, I had a business meeting to attend to." William's responded as he slid his arm into the sleeves on his silk shirt and turned away from Catherine so she wouldn't catch his nervous facial expression. H

"Look woman, you know what I hate in this life? It's pretense and fake tears. What are you waiting for? Sign the damn papers so I can get out of here! I have better and much more important things to do. I am a businessman and don't have time to waste on pretense and fake tears!" Catherine stared at the man in front of her, the man who was to be her husband, bewildered at what she was seeing. This was supposed to be an official marriage as both families had wanted them, but here she was, stunned and presented with what her husband-to-be called a fake marriage: a contract marriage.She couldn't understand what this was that she found tears dropping from her eyes. Did her parents know that this was what she would come to meet?She was going to live as a ghost to her husband; to who she was supposed to be able to call her home.William's voice was icy as he spoke, his eyes fixed on hers with an unreadable expression. "What? Do you think I will make this official? You're insanely dreami

"Oh Catherine, you look so beautiful!" Her mother complimented her, touching her burning cheeks as her eyes glinted with happiness."Thank you so much for what you have done." Her father moved forward placing a kiss on her forward. "We are proud of you. I'm sure you will do well in your marriage."Catherine laughed inwardly. Of course, she would do well with a fake marriage! So sarcastic.She tried as much as possible to smile back at them. Not wanting to get into a conversation with them, she only nodded in response. "Honey, we have sent your belongings to the Bentley mansion. Your dad and I will miss you!" Charlotte, Catherine's mother, added.They had already sent her things over so fast and they were going to miss her so much. Yeah right. What else had she expected? A fairy send-off with a lot of kisses? Catherine thought to herself and scoffed inwardly before excusing herself. She hitched her dress and hurriedly walked away from them heading towards the car."Don't say that Cat

There was a long silence before William suddenly muttered,"Fine, if it's what you want, Mother," And Catherine felt her heart racing widely. Catherine tried to look at him but failed, and that was when she felt his hand around her waist, pulling her closer to him. She closed her eyes; whatever came, she got her hands cold. Her very first kiss, with her newly wedded strange husband.Without words, William lowered his head, placing his mouth into hers, and Catherine froze as she felt William's tongue dance slowly in her mouth. Even though there was no atom of feelings for each other, they had to show the world the opposite.Catherine could feel his hands threading through her scalp, sending shivers down her spine. He deepened the kiss to the point she didn't know when a moan softly left her lips. She had kissed him back, leaving her breathless and no space to think and when they broke the kiss, she wanted to take a look at his face, but the man had turned already, leaving her with a

"We hope you both had a blissful night together as a couple?" Michelle asked smiling at her husband and then at William and Catherine.Catherine immediately began to choke on her food, and then she grabbed a glass of orange juice on the table and sipped off it."Mom..." William wanted to say something angry but decided not to. "Of course we did," He said, flashing Catherine a smile and expecting her to play along.Catherine played along while also giving the couple a big smile. They might be thinking they consummated their marriage already. But did the couple know that William didn't even dare to touch her and they slept with a wide duvet distancing them?She scoffed inwardly. They didn't."So tell me, Cathy dear, how was last night?" Michelle probed.Catherine paused on her food."Mom..." William's tone changed."Alright, I won't make it any more uncomfortable for you both." She said as she dug through her food.William turned away, too. "William, I did tell you and your mother I wan

A few days later, their work-free day was over. Grasping her curvaceous hips with her hands, Catherine gazed at her attractive reflection in the mirror. Grinning, she hurried over in her high heels to retrieve her handbag from the bed. With poise, she walked down the stairs to find William seated in the dining room."Morning." She greeted but there was no response. While they ate together at the table, William started, "We have a meeting to attend today." He said casually. Catherine raised her head when she heard what he said. "What? Why?"He stopped digging through his food and faced her. "Because it's important, and you have to be there.""I have plans for the day. Unfortunately, I cannot join you at your meeting. You only just informed me now, William; maybe if you had mentioned it earlier, then maybe I would have considered.""Do you think you have a choice?!" He pushed his seat, stood up, buttoned his seat, and continued, "Meet me in the black Ferrari. Don't keep me waiting, I d

"Why did you ignore my call?""Vanessa, i'm at work, your calls are distraction me, I have to go now." Vanessa could hear the annoyance in his voice through her speakers as he spoke." William, I know you're working, but what's taking you so long?"" Taking me so long? Vanessa it's 10 am in the morning, I just got here."" William, did you forget you are supposed to come over today, we had this conversation yesterday.""Today?! Vanessa, I ... " William turned to see the distance between him and Catherine and even wondered if she could hear him, Catherine on the other hand was busy typing away on her computer while peeping into a file. William moved away a bit to be sure Catherine couldn't hear him or see his gestures. "Are you still there William?" Vanessa asked through the speaker.William exhaled sharply as he brushed his hand over his face, "Vanessa can you reschedule?" He asked calmly." No! No William, we cannot reschedule! You're leaving for your honeymoon very soon, and there'
Mr CEO's stubborn bride Chapter Thirty nine: Back to work
~Next day~William made his way upstairs to the bedroom and mistakenly barged into Catherine who was too busy admiring her reflection in the mirror to notice his presence. She stylishly struck poses while preparing for work, in a maroon coloured pantsuit, her luscious hair, waving on her back, she paired everything with a cute black birkin and black Louis Vuitton shoes she got as a wedding gift from her mother. She turned around to take her leave when she saw William leaning by the door frame with his hands folded at his chest and wearing a narrow grin on his face.She staggered at the sight of him, and wondered what he was starring at, looking so lost, "What are you doing?" She questioned, her heart racing with shock, she picked her phone from the bed and approached the door when William's hand stopped her."I was just too busy admiring you, I got lost in your beauty."Catherine cocked her brows and darted her eyes around the room before taking a full stare at him, " Out of my way Wi

" It's not what you think ..." William tried to explain." Isn't she your girlfriend? " Catherine asked casually as she dumped her plate in the sink."She ... Catherine, I don't know why she came here, I had no idea." William's didn't want Catherine to start thinking his blooming feelings for her was a joke, he tried to explained everything to Catherine and justify his actions but it seemed like Catherine wasn't really interested especially since they had opposite feelings for each other."William, don't sweat it honestly, she's your girlfriend plus I didn't ask any questions." Catherine said quietly, leaving William behind. She made her way up the stairs to their bedroom to start making preparations for their their little vacation. William followed her upstairs. He wasn't comfortable with the energy she was letting off.William was willing to treat Catherine like a fragile rare gem. His sharp imposing demeanor, somehow melted away each time he was with Catherine. William was failing

When she realized that he noticed she was considering his words, she shook her head vigorously, sighed and made her way to the wardrobe.William successfully didn't get a response from her which was a real bummer for him but he was willing to give her all the time and space she needed to ponder over his proposal. Just like they've been sharing a bed and similar to the way they slept on their wedding night, they both created a bridge at the Middle of they bed as they laid facing opposites sides and sharing one duvet.The next morning, after Mr and Mrs Bentley had left the house to go attend to their daily activities as retirees, Catherine and William were left alone in the house.After their little misunderstanding the previous night, the energy between these two was awkward and uncomfortable.

Catherine, I know ... I should have told you--"" Then why didn't you?! Oh my! William's I thought you never wanted this? We signed a goddamn contract, you're not following what the contract says." Catherine rushed to the wardrobe and ransacked one of their drawers and brought out a copy of their fake marriage contract and showed it to William, "Did you forget? Did you forget the way you looked at me and talked to me? Have you forgotten the wayyou addressed me in public? I didn't want to bring this up but what's with this fishy behavior lately? It doesn't suit you William!"

As he spoke, the maids came in to drop the dishes they were having."Hurry, the food is here already.""Yes mother."
