My Contract Marriage Who are you
“I’m sorry, but we are not hiring.” The middle aged man clarified with a small frown on his face, Jake’s eyes narrowed when he noticed the man’s judging stare. “I read it clearly on the notice and it says you’re looking for a store attendant.” Jake argued with him, not that it would do him any good, he didn’t just want to leave like he would usually do, but everyone on this street knows him already. “How come you are not hiring all of a sudden?” It was pointless trying to fight them anyways, so he just left, he knows the reason why he was being turned down, and everyone in the neighborhood must have heard the gravity of his crimes to stigmatize him like that. “How did it go?” His mother asked as soon as Jake came inside the living room, the smell of the familiar, beef stir fry he enjoyed eating as a child wafted into his nose as he walked in, at first he ignored his mother in the room and he went in search of the person cooking his favourite delicacy, he peeped into the kitche
My Contract Marriage I will help you
Jake drummed his fingers on the table; as he contemplated his sudden willingness to meet with the stranger who had messaged him last night. He had chosen a location that is away from the scrutinizing eyes of the public, and he was wearing a small disguise, he didn’t want to spend much money so he bought a hat and some pair of glasses to shield his eyes; just as the unknown sender had ordered him to.He scoffed, as he wondered since when he had become so obedient, the waitress approached him for the seventh time, because he had been sitting for more than half an hour and he hadn’t ordered anything. “Have you decided what you want to order, sir?” She asked him politely, her pearl blue eyes feeling him up and he smiled nervously. “Hum… my date is running late, I apologize, just give me some light appetizer.” She nodded at him and strolled back into the distance, trying to set up his order for him. “What’s up with table four?” Her manager asked his silver eyes shooting to Jake in
My Contract Marriage Truth unfolds
“I told you not to worry yourself too much about that, Lilah.” Karina yelled as she dragged her friend towards the ice cream vendor across the street. It was a long day at school, the noise, annoying teachers and the crazy boys in her class, everything just everything sets her at the edge…as if her day couldn’t get any worse, Delilah is still melancholic about the photos of the celebrity’s wife that got leaked. “Unless you were the one who posted it, I don’t see a reason why you should still be sad about it.” Karina added when she didn’t get a response from her friend. “This is the reason why I wanted to wait for Lucas.” Delilah grumbled out the words, Lucas, her cousin, would understand why she was worried, she gaped at the ice cream man who was already grinning openly at them, then she glared at Karina. “Is this the reason you dragged me out of school in a hurry?”“Two scoops of chocolate and one Vanilla for me, and for her just make it three scoops of strawberry flavor.” Kari
My Contract Marriage I wish you die
“Who did you say she met with?” Crystal inquired softly, her blue eyes piercing into Paige’s orbs. “I said Jake Mackenzie, she—” she was barely able to finish her statement when Crystal interrupted her again. “You can’t be so sure; she was meeting Jake.” She whizzed. “She doesn’t even know Jake.” Deborah shook her head, Paige had explained who Jake was to Deborah, and the relationship he had with Crystal. “I knew you were going to be so doubtful,” Paige muttered as she fumbled through her bag, Crystal paled when her eyes combated Jake once again. “So, that’s why I brought pictured proof.” Crystal felt her legs go limp, it was as though she had no bones in them, she was pretty grateful for the support of the sofa.“Calm down.” Paige noticed Crystal’s difficulty in breathing, she was having her usual panic attack, Paige rubbed Crystal’s back soothingly. Petra noticed this, she ran into the kitchen to fetch a glass of water, she wasn’t so sure it would work, but it was much b
My Contract Marriage An Actress
“So, it was you who pushed me down the stairs?” Crystal asked staring at Laurie intently, her blue eyes narrowed on Laurie who blinked back green eyes with feigned ignorance. You attempted to drown me at the resort, stole the diamonds, and sabotaged my designs, correct??” “That is correct, and I feel bad I am just telling you all this now.” Laurie smiled as she tapped the tears from her eyes using her handkerchief, and then her voice rang out maliciously. “I hope the fairy Rae listens to my request and kills you for real this time.” “So, your wish was for my death, right?” Crystal breathed out. She stared at Laurie with sadness looming in her eyes. “Why would you do something like that?” “It is because you are so annoying.” Laurie snapped. You've only just started working at the company, but everyone already likes you. You're always with Mr. Smith, which is frustrating because he doesn't even like you. Why did he make you his wife? What makes you so special??” There was a brief sil
My Contract Marriage I am here
“She got seven years, should be more if you ask me.” Deborah pulled her chair backwards and falls into it as she overheard the conversation of her colleagues. “I’m highly disappointed in her to be honest.” Deborah glanced at Dora and Lola, they had abandoned their work only to be in the middle of lunch, discussing about Laurie and the events that has been happening the past few days. “I don’t even want to imagine how Mr. Smith would feel, after all Laurie was his favorite.” Lola muttered as she fixed her straw back into the boba drink. “I don’t even want to mention Mrs. Smith.” “Laurie is not Mr. Smith’s favorite.” Deborah found herself joining the gossip, even though they had a lot of work to do, this sensitive matter had been the hot gist in the company since Laurie’s arrest. “I’m afraid she got the wrong impression that she was his “favorite” so she probably thought he was seducing her.” “But Mr. Smith is a very responsible young man, I would hate to think something had happ
My Contract Marriage First Date
“Good morning,” Kayden greeted first with a satisfied smirk on his face when he noticed his wife was all dressed up and ready for work. “You are late for breakfast.”“I am going to have breakfast with Paige and the others,” Crystal said as she climbed down the stairs. She continued to approach him and stopped in front of him. She offered him a small envelope with the handwritten apology he requested, causing his smile to widen even more.He eagerly opened it, read it with a smile, and then tucked it away.“Apology accepted,” he declared before turning on his heels, leaving first.Crystal rolled her eyes as she wondered what he was so excited about. She reluctantly followed him to the car; Akeem noticed them from the corner of his eyes. Immediately, he opened the door and greeted them with a warm smile.Crystal smiled back before muttering a small “good morning.” And she got into the car with Kayden. Since the incident, this was the very first time she was stepping outside along with h
My Contract Marriage I'm sorry
Kayden chuckled to himself, as he scrolled through his phone, for some reason he felt this feeling of contentment within himself. He noticed from the corner of his eyes, that Crystal was also typing away on her phone, he glanced at the phone in her hands once more confirming that she was using the phone he bought for her and a smile reached his lips again.“I see you like your new phone.” She jerked up in surprise, as she held the phone even tighter, she flushed from the embarrassment.“Yes, I thought it would be useful for a while.” She answered with a blank expression, and Kayden smiled mischievously, she frowned before adding. “Thank you.”“You’re welcome.” She shifted uncomfortably in her seat as she stared ahead wondering where the car was headed to, they had been driving for some times now.“Where are we going?” she finally asked as she stared at Kayden, he snapped the phone shut and placed it in his pocket.“Are you curious?” He inquired with a slight raise of his eyebrows.

My Contract Marriage Kayden & Crystal
“Would it be a surprise if I told you?” He teased, pulling some stubborn strands of her hair away from her face and feeling up the soft skin of her face with his long thin fingers.“Don’t you think this is too much?” She asked, staring in the distance, her feelings overwhelming her. “It’s too much for me.”“I don’t think it’s enough.” He answered, and Crystal looked around once more. “Not enough?” she asked herself internally, what did he mean by it isn’t enough? She pinched the insides of her palms, hoping she would wake up from the unreal dream.“You deserve to have this and more. This is not enough for someone like you.”“But why?” it was still unbelievable. This building was worth millions, yet she couldn’t understand why Kayden thought she was worthy to have something of the sort. “I don’t know how to pay Mrs. Darling back, nor do I know how did I ever deserve to get such a gift?”“You don’t have to pay her back, however, you can also pay her back by doing exceptionally good in
My Contract Marriage I love you
Kayden glanced at Crystal who was staring outside the window with a rather unhappy look on her face, he was concerned because she had not spoken a word to him since the beginning of the ride, and he couldn’t help but feel that she was either angry or sad.“What’s making the birthday girl so sad?” He quizzed with a teasing smile as he controlled the steering wheel professionally, but Crystal didn’t glance back at him as much, which was even more suspicious.“It’s nothing.” She muttered and even after some seconds passed, she was still staring outside, yeah, she was mad at him, but what did he do? He had no clue what he had done wrong. Is she mad he was celebrating her birthday?That didn’t seem to be the case, she was just fine a few seconds ago, what could be the problem? He glanced back at her worriedly. “Did I do something wrong?” He guessed but she didn’t reply to him. “Crystal?”“No, you didn’t,” her response resembled that of a doll with missing batteries and Kayden’s eyebrows
My Contract Marriage Kayden's Confession
"Are we not going to work?" Crystal asked as she climbed the stairs and headed towards the dining area. She noticed that Kayden, who was usually dressed by this time, was sitting at the dining table in his pajamas, drinking his morning coffee. Crystal glanced at her wristwatch and realized that it was way past their usual resumption time. She quickly opened her calendar app to confirm that today was not a weekend or a public holiday.They were already late, because even though she tried to get him out of bed, he wanted to cuddle a bit more, and she also couldn’t resist his charms.Instead of their usual breakfast foods, Petra and the other maids arranged the table with sweets, scones, and a baked turkey.“What?” she asked curiously. “Is this for Thanksgiving or something?”Crystal sat down on the chair next to Kayden. “Do you not know what day today is?” Petra asked, taking the words right out of Kayden’s mouth.“No, is something going on today?” She asked him curiously, and Kayden c
My Contract Marriage Good Morning
The sounds of birds chirping filled Crystal’s ears, she turned to the other side of the bed, her hands instinctively reaching for the pillows to block her ears; she turned away again, and this time it was the sunlight that was in her sight, she picked the other pillow to shield her eyes.Suddenly, she was pulled against a sturdy chest, the skin of which was smooth and enticing. She snuggled closer to him, relishing in the comfort from the heat his body radiated.It felt like she was floating on a cloud, she opened one of her eyes to observe his beautiful face, Kayden’s eyes were closed as he slept peacefully, and for a moment she wished time stopped so she could remain like this forever.It was peaceful.“I can’t sleep properly if you keep fiddling about the bed.” He murmured against her ears, smoldering her cheeks with kisses even though he was still half asleep.“I think it's morning though.” She noticed returning the small kisses to him as well, placing her head against his chest a
My Contract Marriage Unexpected kisses
“I told you I am fine.” Sebastian scolded Lorenza, his mother because she had been complaining about his health ever since she got to the hospital. She cried about thirty minutes before he was able to convince her that he wasn’t going to die.“What do you think I am going to do if you had died?” The door opened and Crystal ambled inside with a tray of food in her hands, for the three days he had been here, Crystal hadn’t left the hospital. “How do you think I will survive?”“Mom, I told you that I wouldn’t die from such a shallow stab wound… It would be laughable.” Sebastian muttered and Crystal scrunched up her nose in disgust, as she neared the bed.“I told you not to speak like that again.” Crystal scolded glaring down at him, he used the same words Kayden used when she was worried about him. “What part of your death would be comical to us?”“I am pretty sure some people would find it funny, especially Kayden.” Sebastian pouted “That’s no way a man should die.” Lorenza rolle
My Contract Marriage Stay with me
Crystal’s eyes fluttered open when she heard a pained growl that came from Jake, when her eyes opened, he was on the ground, with Sebastian’s heavy boots placed against Jake’s head.“Crystal!” She turned in the other direction, and she saw Kayden heading toward her in fast strides, he pulled her as he got down on one knee and his silver eyes narrowed when he noticed her busted lips and swollen eyes. He reached for her face and caressed her in his palms, she felt fresh tears well up in her eyes, and his frown deepened when he noticed the narrow cut on her neck, it was terrible, even though shallow.Kayden didn’t want to imagine what would have happened to her if they got there any second later, the bastard had a knife to her delicate throat, as though she was a piece of vegetable, why would someone be so evil?“I-I’m sorry,” she whispered and his frown deepened, for what reason is she apologizing? “Kayden…” She reached for him and pulled him into a hug, he noticed that she was tre
My Contract Marriage Too late for regrets
Trigger WarningThis chapter contains some violence, please read it at your discretion.Crystal thought to herself, she had to clarify the misunderstanding, probably this anonymous sender was planning to send those gifts to someone else and there must have been a mix-up in the addresses… She wasn’t close with any middle-aged man, so why did he keep sending her letters and gifts? She was only lucky Kayden had moved her out of his office, he would be so worried by now, that’s why she would meet with this old man and tell him to stop. She was able to get out of the company and proceed to the parking lot without being noticed by anyone; at least not anyone close enough to follow her.She stood out in the open, her eyes met by the very bright lights of the underground parking lots, that almost blinded her. She stood there rigidly in one spot for about a minute or two, unsure of what to do or where to go, and there was no one in sight too.The letter didn’t give much details, it simpl
My Contract Marriage Warning Note
Sunlight creeps into the bedroom from the slightly opened blinds in the room, warming up Crystal’s face, she stirred being disturbed by the light. She felt something heavy on her waist and she glanced up to be met by a pair of silver eyes staring intently at her.“Hic…” she gasped softly when she realized she had been sleeping against Kayden’s chest, she could hear his heart beating in slow steady rhythms, he pulled her closer with a smug satisfaction on his face, his heavy arms on her back.“Good morning,” He murmured his voice still husky with sleep, Crystal flushed red from his seductive bedroom voice, and unable to form words, she nodded at him. “Did you sleep well?”“Y-yes,” she answered with a slight tremble in her voice, it was unbelievable, who would have thought that one day she and Kayden; would be lying down in her bed, naked and tangled underneath the sheets? “How long have you been awake?”“For a while now,” He confessed and he reached to feel the soft skin of her fac
