Andy’s POV:“so what’s next?” I said, Tress and I were sitting on the sofa. “god!! Let’s take some rest from preparing to the wedding shall we? I mean, why don’t you let Harris help with stuffs?” she said I rolled my eyes, “he doesn’t care about the wedding, plus he’s busy these days, there’s a new project…” I started, she covered her ears, “oh god!! Not this…fine let’s see what left…” she said reading from the list in her hands.“the dress…check, the ring…check…” she said, I frowned. “wait a minute, we still didn’t get the ring!! How come it’s written check?” I asked, she gasped. “argh!! That’s exactly what I asked for some rest, I’m losing it!!” she said annoyingly, I rolled my eyes.“let’s go get the ring then!!” I said, she shook her head. “we can’t, it’s a thing you should do together!!” she shrugged. My eyes widened, “and why is that?” I asked, she stood walking closer to me, “unless you know his finger’s size...” a playful smile appeared on her lips, I shot her one of my deadly
Andy’s POV:I looked at Harris, who was looking at Chloe with a surprised face. Suddenly Harris turned to face me, his facial expression was unreadable, and he was as much surprised as me. I looked at Chloe giving her a cold look, she smiled once again. “I bet you didn’t expect to see me” she said, I narrowed my eyes, I tried to calm down, what is she doing here? “I decided it’s time to give you your wedding gift” she continued, Harris and I looked at each other questioningly, what is she implying to?“And what is you wedding gift if I may ask?” I asked annoyingly, Windy walked towards me, “you know, we’re going outside, it’s a beautiful day, when you finish this, join us” she said nervously, she was obviously annoyed that Chloe’s here, well, she’s not the only one who got that feeling.We watched as they went out, I turned to look at Chloe again, Harris reached for her already, he was two inches from her, as she pulled him into a tight hug. I raised an eyebrow when she smirked at me.
Harris’s POV:As Andy was about to leave, I called her name, she can’t leave me alone with Chloe, not like this, not right now!! “Andy, come on!! Join us!” I said, with pleading eyes, however she shook her head, “nah, I’m fine, enjoy yourselves”, I swear she’ll pay for this! I know I told her not to let Chloe get to her, but I can’t stay with Chloe alone, I know what she’s trying to do.“She’s boring…I don’t know why…”she started but I looked away from her, “right…forgot she’s going to be your wife in a matter of a week” she said, I looked into her beautiful green eyes, her red hair was perfectly flying by the wind, I forgot how obsessed I was with her hair, still!“you know, she’s not you, but somehow, it’s why I love her” I said, gathering my shirt that was laying on the sand, “you didn’t have to do that” I said, looking straight into her eyes, she narrowed her eyes, pretending as if she was confused. “Taking off my shirt in front of my future wife?” I said, taking a step closer to h
Andy’s POV:“fine, do you want to know?” I gave up, I was on the edge of telling Harris everything, he was acting like he’s someone else. He nodded, I closed my eyes. I can’t do this, I can’t tell him, the conversation with that stranger was pretty clear that I’m having love feelings for Harris, if I tell him, then I don’t know what will happen…he’ll probably terminate the contract, I’ll get fired, and let’s not forget the fact that I don’t have 250 thousand dollars in my pocket!“it’s not a big deal, he was just…” I started when Chloe interrupted me. “looks like someone is jealous!” she said walking towards us, I let a deep breath I didn’t notice I was holding. It’s the first time I was happy that she interrupted our conversation, Harris was looking at her, he shook his head.“we’ll talk about this later” he whispered to my ear, I nodded, looking into his eyes, he turned leaving Chloe and I alone. Just when I thought I was out of the hook, Chloe glared at me suspiciously, walking tow
Andy’s POV :“Hey, you’re back!” I said, nervously, pretending I’m not afraid of him, he raised his hands I surrender, I frowned, “I have no bad intentions in hurting you, trust me” he said, I was surprised of what he just told me, how does he know what I’m thinking?“And how am I supposed to trust someone I don’t know?” I said, backing away from him, he shook his head, “if I wanted to hurt you, I would’ve done it already” he said, I narrowed my eyes, “what do you want?” I asked, he walked closer to me, still looking at me.“I was hired by someone who cares about your safety, as you know your fiancé has a lot of enemies. From the moment you made your relationship official, his enemies will see you as a target to reach Harris” he explained, standing right I front of me, “you should know, I’ll be here for you” he said, I narrowed my eyes still curious, and suspicious.“Then, how come that Harris doesn’t know about this?” I asked, he smirked, “you think he knows everything in this planet
Andy’s POV:“Mom, the truth is, I went on a ski trip, sorry for keeping that from you” I said, with an apologetic look, mom nodded at me, “well, lately, you’ve been keeping a lot of things, Andy” she said looking away from me, “you’ve never been on a ski trip before?” Harris whispered, I rolled my eyes, he’s probably think I’m such a retarded or something. Nothing to ashamed of, I’m a girl who didn’t have time for trips, or vacations.“I was busy working for you” I whispered, he smirked, “Ah, I love the way you always try to make it look like my fault” he said, I rolled my eyes.Mom was still looking at us, she nodded at me to follow her after she excused herself from everyone, I followed her to the kitchen. “Why are you lying? What are you hiding?” she asked, I froze, what? How did she know? “Nothing mom, what do you mean?” I said she shot me another deadly glare.“Andy, we’re always on the phone, everyday” she said taking another stop to me, I opened my mouth to say something, howe
Andy’s POV: “That plus to the fact that it’s kind of attract girls” I said lowering my voice, his eyes widened, he was confused, our eyes were locked…Harris’s eyes travelled from my eyes to my lips…I suddenly, realized, what I was doing? This is a huge mistake, get hold of yourself girl, Harris was still looking at my lips, I pushed him a little, faking a sarcastic laugh.I fixed myself again in my seat, “except, I’m not like that type of girls” I said nervously, still giggling, he was looking at me with shocked eyes. It took a minute from him to realize what just happened, he looked away, and then gave me another questioning look, he was so confused. While I was acting as if what just happened wasn’t weird at all!I bit my lower lip feeling nervous, oh my god? What the hell just happened? I can’t do this anymore, I realized that the car wasn’t moving anymore, just then I realized we were already parked in front of my apartment.I looked at Harris who was already staring at me, I gave
Andy’s POV:“I envy this guy, Andy” he said, I was looking into his eyes, feeling my knees weakening from his words, is this real? I swear I wanted to pinch myself to see whether that’s real, or it’s all just a dream, Harris looked away nervously, I swear his actions were giving me shivers. “I just think it would be nice to have someone that’s write about me this way” he said, with a sad smile, “I guess not” he said, started walking, I closed my eyes, biting my lower lip, stopping myself from telling him that these words were written about him.I opened my purse, taking out a small black box. I headed to Harris, “here, I wanted to give you this” I said, he looked at my hand, he narrowed his eyes when he noticed the black box in my hand. “Andy? What is that?” he asked seemed curious, “I felt that it’s not fair not buy you a ring, I mean, you trusted me putting this expensive diamond ring on my finger. I know this ring isn’t as expensive as yours” I said giving him the box, he opened i
Andy’s POV: My eyes widened when the guy turned around, my doubts turned out to be true. Even though he was wearing a black mask, those blue ocean eyes made me recognize him right away. “Harris?” My voice barely audible, a smile crept onto his half masked face. His eyes were locked with mine for a moment, and I knew I was in trouble, just like every time. “surprised?” he said, scanning my look for a moment, then smirked. His eyes met mine again. I was about to turn, but he grabbed me by my waist, turning me around, so I was facing his smiley face. “What do you think you’re doing?” I asked, “can we at least dance?” he said, his hands traveled from my waist to my back. He pulled me close to him. And I could feel my breath fading away. A song started to play, I assume it was the same song that played in Paris, at Caleb’s party, he smirked. “What do you want, Harris?” I asked, looking away from him as he started to dance, making me sway along with him. All the dancers baby on t
Harris’s pov:I was very surprised that Tress finally decided to talk to me. I was trying to talk to her for the past few months.“What do you want?” she asked, her voice annoyed and pissed. “Tress…please, can you listen to me before judging me?” I asked, “I’ll think about it” her voice was more calm.“I love Andy…and I know how much she loves me…” I started, “but I don’t think she needs me as much as I need her” I added, she remained silent for a moment.“I don’t think there’s another good friend that knows what’s good for his friend like you do” I said, “I just want to know what happened suddenly that made Andy leave?” I asked, she remained silent for a moment, “as if you don’t know” she said, making me shake my head.“I swear…I don’t” I said, “you have to stop all the acting, Andy knows about you and Chloe” she said, seemed honest. My eyes widened, “what?” I asked, feeling my heartbeat accelerating.“She knows that you were back to Chloe, and the worst part was that you told Chloe
Harris’s POV:I stood from my seat, her eyes were locked with mine, and I could feel my heart skipping a beat. Andy was there in front of me, still standing at the doorway, but the way she looked at me, it wasn’t the same anymore.We kept staring at each other for what looked like ages, and it was burning me from the inside. I was too weak, and she was a few inches away from me, but I was unable to walk towards her.Suddenly, she started walking towards my desk, then put some papers on it. I frowned, narrowing my eyes at the papers on my desk. I froze looking at her cold eyes, I was about to say something but she beat me to it.“I signed them…we’re no longer…husband and wife” she said, the shock left me silent, I was about to explain, but I couldn’t speak, instead I kept scanning every inch I loved in her, and it was everything, there was nothing that I didn’t love about the girl she was standing in front of me. I made a few steps closer to her.She flinched, looking away from me, I
Andy’s POV:I was still staring at Hector, who was looking back at me. I was unable to move, standing in front of him as if I was a body without a soul.“What were you expecting?” he asked, “that you can do whatever you want, then just run?” he added, I frowned, then looked away from him.“This was your son’s idea…” I started, but he interrupted me, making closer steps towards me, “but you agreed to it” he said, I opened my mouth to protest, “you lied to all of us, especially to my wife” he said, he was pissed, and annoyed.I gulped, not having any idea of what to answer him, deep down, I knew he was right! But I couldn’t just watch while he was putting all the blame on me.“My wife was lying in a bed inside a hospital for like a month, because of your actions, you and my son” he said, I looked down, not able to look at his disappointed face. I was tearing apart from the inside, I’ve never felt much humiliation in my whole life.I gulped, not looking into his eyes, “I kind of expected
Harris’s POV:I knew that I couldn’t do that anymore, I was struggling and fighting back, just to stay away from alcohol. I hated the fact that I was weak, and needy. And it sucks that I had to have the same bad hangover every morning.Which is why I decided to make a promise, that I’ll stop all of this shit, and was trying to occupy my time with various activities, I even started to go swimming, and boxing.Caleb was shocked, still not believing the fact I was trying to stop all of the mess in my life. But all of that didn’t stop me from thinking about her, Andy was keeping my mind occupied, even at work, I wasn’t able to focus. Most of my meetings were no longer interesting, because she wasn’t around anymore.And most of the employees were confused, and negative all the time, and that made me more aware of the upcoming consequences. If I continue in this way, I’ll lose everything!“The doctor said she’s doing good, but…” My father said, “but she she’s still in coma” I said, dad look
Andy’s POV:“Are you alright?” Landen asked, I froze looking at him, then nervously wiped my tears, “yeah…sorry, it was an urgent phone call” I said with an apologetic look, he nodded, “it’s okay to have phone calls, as long as your work is done. It’s also okay if you want to read some of our books” he finished, I felt relieved that he was friendly.“Anyway, if you need any help with these documents, just ask for Elena’s help” he said before leaving me, I received another call, I decided to switch my phone off, since I have some work to do.After I finished all the work, it was lunch time. I headed outside the library after I took Landen’s permission of course.I switched my phone on, and after a moment or two, it started ringing, I frowned, it was Tress. “hey…” I started, but she interrupted me. “thank god you’re okay!!” she gasped, taking a deep breath, her voice shaking.I frowned, “what’s going on?” I asked, “Andy, Harris knows that you were working with…” she started, “Kim?” I wh
Harris’s POV:My eyes were fixed on the girl with the black masked girl, the dress fit perfectly on her body, and her red hair made her more…I looked away from her nervously. What the hell I was doing? Maybe it’s the bourbon, because I swear that girl wasn’t just some girl.It was Andy, but with different hair color. I shook my head, and took a deep breath, looking up at her once again. My eyes widened, and it was official, I was losing my mind because of her love, there was no one sitting there, but I could swear I just saw her sitting at the bar, holding her glass of wine.“What’s wrong?” Caleb asked, joining our group. “nothing…” I said, then walked to the bar, still confused, my eyes looking at every face there. I sighed, I was out of my mind, that girl totally made me not only crave her, but also she was driving me crazy!I ordered a glass of bourbon, and took my seat, then suddenly I was surprised of Caleb’s sitting right next to me, “where the hell did that black masked girl
Andy’s POV:Harris was staring at the camera, he said he wanted to confess a lot of things. I stared at Abby, who seemed shocked, just like me. “My wife did leave” he started, then looked down for a moment. I frowned, I couldn’t believe he would do anything to keep his water face safe.“I can see why you escaped” Abby said, patting on my back, I was still staring at his sad face, or probably his fake sad face.“But, it was because of me,” he said, I frowned, “my wife cares a lot about her reputation, and since she left, it means something went wrong. I know how much she loved me, but…I was a bad husband, always late, and always busy, but cheating wasn’t one of the things, it’s just a huge misunderstanding” he said. I gasped, studying his face.“I can’t believe you escaped! WOW” Abby whispered, “leave Andy, and my family out of this” his eyes pleading, “I’m ready to let you go, Andy” he said, “but I really hope you come back, and give me a second chance” he said, and with that he fin
Andy’s POV:“So, you’re his wife, I knew I saw you somewhere” Kim’s voice from behind, she was very shocked, “so, you’re Andy!” she added, I turned to look at her mad face, her arms were crossed over her chest, as she shot me a deadly glare.I never saw her as pissed, I opened my mouth to explain, but she stopped me, shaking her head, “and you lied about your name? this is a company, what were you going to do when we discovered your little lie?” she asked, still staring at me with the most disgusted look I could ever describe.It was so hard for me to see the disappointed look on her face. She wasn’t only disappointed but also angry, and sad.“Why did you lie? And why did you escape?” she asked, I frowned, I trusted her, but it didn’t mean that I was ready to talk about it, I was still surprised that Harris was in the same building as me…“Really? After everything?” she asked, seemed more disappointed, “it’s not that I don’t trust you” I said, she looked away nervously, “if you don’t
