Chapter 70

last update Last Updated: 2022-10-20 22:44:37

Sometimes you want to hit a person right over the head. Preferably with a hammer or something similarly heavy to stop that person from being so stupid. Other times, you want to grab the person by the shoulders, shake them, and ask, "What are you thinking about life?" And sometimes you just want to kiss her until she realizes how stupid she is being.

I squeezed my eyes shut and then looked at the figure of Pierre walking towards the door. Before he could leave, however, I stopped him.

“If you leave, I'll haunt you forever, Lawrence.

He turned around, surprised. — Haunt me?

“I'm very close to pulling out those damn wires in my body.

His face immediately transformed.

- No! Jennifer, don't do this.

“Come back here and put your ass in that chair. “I sounded bossy, but I didn't care.

- It's all right. He looked like he was trying to calm a cornered animal. “I will sit down. Just don't do anything stupid.

I squinted at him. He sat beside me, still wary.

    He faked an exaggerated sigh. “Looks like I didn't have a choice. Boss orders and stuff... I told him you're going to kill me sooner or later. I rolled my eyes. “You're a little dramatic. “You threatened to kill me just now. he stated, and then just started laughing. — With a bottle of perfume. I snorted. “You can't say it wouldn't be efficient. He smiled. - If you say. Smile too. I was alone apart from being with him, but at least I was safe. I looked around and realized that everything had been done to make me feel good. The color of the walls, the curtains, the scents around the house, everything… Frederich was very attentive. - I'm hungry. - I said. I enjoyed being there with him and not just any security guard. I knew he was a great cook. He shrugged. - OK... “You need to feed me or I'm going to die. Scott's mouth dropped open. - Which? — I'm in recovery, I need someone to take care of me. You're going to have to make me some delicious food. He narrowed

    Standards. You can love them or hate them, but you can't get rid of them. For everything we do in life, we follow a pattern. And in those days, my life had become a pattern I couldn't take anymore. Wake up, get dressed, eat, watch television. And that was it. A word or two with Scott was also part of my day, but it wasn't a pattern. He wasn't always available. I hadn't had contact with the outside world since I'd gone to the safe house Frederich had arranged for me. The last time I spoke on the phone was with Pierre, but it had been a few days and I was going crazy in the worst sense of the word. I had already read every book that was available in the house, had seen at least two dozen previously rented movies, and even the available series had run out. In short, I was being tortured. - Scott! I groaned for the thousandth time. He looked at me over his spoon during lunch. - I need to get out of here! It's been two weeks... “Thank you, Miss So Obvious. Scott muttered.

    You know that moment when you know you're completely screwed? And that anything you say won't help? That's how I felt at that moment. Pierre's gaze was completely transfixed. I swallowed, suddenly wanting to hide inside some hole. More precisely, one full of clothes. I discreetly glanced at Adrian and he looked scared too. His eyes alternated between Pierre and me. I shot him a helpless look, and he just shrugged. Pierre finally broke the silence. “What the fuck are you doing? I let out a nervous laugh. “Ahm…funny you should ask, we, ahm…we were just…” I looked at my best friend. — Adrian? “Trying some things out! Adrian said with an unconvincing smile. I slapped my forehead. Pierre narrowed his eyes. "And why are you doing this?" “I was bored. The words flew out of my lips. Pierre didn't look entirely convinced. He still had a murderous look on his face, so I turned around and headed for the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and saw how flushed she was, both from drinking and

    By some unknown force that took over me completely, I launched myself at Pierre, pressing my lips against his. Pierre was stunned, too stunned to even respond to my kisses. But when I pulled back a little to catch my breath, he lifted me up and started kissing me tightly. His lips were like velvet on mine, and I felt like I'd been in a desert for too long and now I'd finally found water. I missed it. I missed Pierre's taste. His lips left mine and started moving down my body, making me shiver. My hands tugged at his hair, he kissed my chin, my neck and my mouth again. Soon, I was out of breath. I pulled away, smiling. Pierre just raised his eyebrows. I stood up, delighted to see how excited he was. Pierre's gaze was smoldering as I slowly untied the robe, letting the laces hang down my sides, showing off my curves and the extremely sexy lingerie from before. She was turquoise and really accentuated my assets. Pierre's gaze traveled over my entire body. Maybe days ago, I

    I didn't expect Pierre to be there the next morning when I woke up. I didn't care about that either. I knew that if he had had a choice, he would have stayed. But I knew he was a busy man... and famous. If I stayed there longer, chances are they'd soon find out where I was. I knew he'd been worried about this before, and probably should have been mulling over his visit to me last night, but I enjoyed having him near me again. I missed him so much. Even though he wasn't physically with me, he arranged for me to spend breakfast thinking about him. He had prepared eggs, bacon, and some pancakes for me. Even he had left everything in the microwave for me to heat up when I woke up, along with a note: Thanks for the wonderful night. I hope to repeat it when you're on probation. I forgot something?? Oh yes, I love you. A huge smile stayed on my face the entire time as I ate. Yes, I was hoping to repeat the night soon too. Not just the part with Pierre. I also missed Adrian a

    We should have realized it was Owen from the start. After all, I had taken away from him the opportunity to run Frederich's company, something he most likely felt he deserved more than I did. But how could neither my father, nor Pierre or even Scott imagine this? Owen was never hostile towards me, on the contrary, he did flirt at times, but the situation in general should have raised suspicions. However, none of us thought he was capable of doing such horrible things to someone who had never done anything to him. “So you're the one behind all this? It was a stupid question, I knew, but somehow, I wanted to hear it from your own mouth. The look of contempt he gave me left me speechless. - Of course I am. You're a tough nut to crack, bitch. “And you're a sick bastard. I didn't even realize the words came out of my mouth until they were already out. He was across the room, but in just over a second, a hard slap hit my face, making me yelp. I swallowed hard, saying nothing.

    The calm then evaporated for good. I was really scared. I wanted to cry and I wanted to get out of there, but I couldn't do either one or the other. My face was swollen and it hurt. My throat was dry, and my hands were numb from the knots.As soon as the door closed behind Owen, I saw her open it again. This time it was the guy who had given me water for the first time. - Are you okay? I raised my eyebrows. "Can't you see how I'm in paradise?" I should have thought before saying this. Sarcasm had gotten me a slap. Or worse, two. - I am fine. I muttered quickly then. The man looked around, and stopped in front of me. He looked like all the other security guys. g Big, muscular and could probably kill someone with just one breath. - Do you want some water? Food maybe? “If he isn't poisoned. I said more to myself than to him. But he did, because a second later, I heard him laugh. “I'll give you something. He said and left. About ten minutes later, he was back with

    “Scott was the man I trusted the most. Frederich paused. He looked sincere, and most of all, he looked sad. “He was my right-hand man, the guy I turned to when I needed advice. He trusted me just as I trusted him. Since before I started dating my daughter. He was a great man. Or rather, he is a great man. He's a great man. I remember when he asked me out for the first time. With a bunch of roses, and just a simple "Do you want to go out with me?" He was my best friend, just like Adrian. He knew everything about me. It was inevitable to like him. It was inevitable to say "Yes" to his request. It was inevitable to kiss him after that. It was inevitable to give him my virginity. It is inevitable to miss him from now on in my life. “Scott will always remain in my heart, and in all of our memories. The scene after Owen's shooting flashed in front of me. He had a smile on his face as Scott fell to the ground. I screamed when I saw the blood flow from his chest. - Scott

    Calm down, Jennifer. Remember to breathe. You have time. I repeated to myself all the time. The problem is, it's hard to focus on these things when you're in excruciating pain that feels like it's going to rip a part of your body off. “I'm here, man. Pierre's calm, reassuring voice wasn't helping either. I knew it was meant to be comforting, but if he said it one more time, I'd throw the first thing my hand could reach at his head. Adrian was driving like a madman down the street and I couldn't take it anymore. I wanted to get into the operating room right away. I had been stubborn and waited until the last minute, apparently. If I'd decided to go to the hospital the night before, we wouldn't be swearing at slow drivers or running through traffic lights at noon. “Adrian, go faster. She's crushing my hand. - Pierre said in a pained voice. I had taken her hand by the time I got in the car and she must have been white from my blood pressure. "Pierre, I'm not going to... aaaaaaaah!"

    The next day the cyclone was still raging, which meant me and him stuck together in the villa. And after last night, I really don’t want to see Pierre at all, or his smirk. I walked to the huge study and started browsing books. The only good thing about my husband was that he had huge collections of books. I smiled at books from my favourite author. I took one and curled up on the recliner.As I opened the book, the smell wafted through my noise. I always found the smell of old book…amazing. “I wonder why I am seeing you everywhere” I heard his voice and turned towards the door. He was standing there, walking towards the desk. Unlike other days, he was wearing faded jeans and black t-shirt. He looked almost human but for the anger in his eyes. However, his face looked weird.I frowned. “What’s wrong?”“Why do you assume something is wrong?” he looked quite surprised by my question.“If everything was fine you would have a scowl on your face and your taunts would have

    “Hey wake up” I heard his voice. Did I hear concern in his voice? Why was everything blank anyways?I felt cold hands on my arms, shaking me. I slowly opened my eyes to see a very angry Pierre. He sighed. “The next time you run off, its over.” He said and helped me up. I looked down and saw the bloody hole I fell into. Who digs a hole in the middle of a path?We walked all the way to the house with him grumpy and mumbling how stupid I was. The sky went from sunny morning to a grey dark. “Shit” my husband stopped in front of me and I bumped right on his back. He was looking up “It’s going to rain” he said and turned to me.“I trust you have enough energy to run?” he asked and I nodded. By the time we reached the house however, we were both soaked. I walked immediately to my room and headed for a warm bath. It was nice to soak in bubbly warm water after being in the dirt and running though my feet hurt like hell after my fall.I stared at the ceiling, wondering again,

    It feels great when what one thinks actually happens. Two days since we arrived on the island and Pierre was still stuck in his study with his laptop and phone. I on the other hand, had the privilege to tour the beautiful island. On the north was an amazing sandy beach with a myriad of clear blue water and the sunny sky. The south of the island however, there was this gorgeous cliff with huge waves crashing onto them. This island was amazing. I was only able to tour the north and south in the two days. “You are free to do whatever you want to. There is only us and the house staff on the island, so you should be safe from paparazzi as well” Pierre had said before disappearing into the study. Well at least that put my mind to rest. I was able to enjoy this holiday. “Breakfast!” I heard the familiar voice call. Ever since we came, I had not seen him at all. When I turned, it was to find the business magnate Pierre gone, and a very tired looking one instead. However, unlike the usual b

    I glanced at Adrian as he reached my side at the altar. Fucking asshole. “If you weren't my brother, you have no idea what I would do to you, you idiot. I muttered. Adrian smiled shamelessly. - But I am. “Thank heavens for that. I looked at him. Then smile. “The best thing our parents did was give me a brother. Before he could answer anything, the wedding march started playing, and my girl came on the scene. My breath caught, and once again I was reminded of what a lucky bastard I was that this wonderful woman wanted to marry me. She had a charming smile on her face, and walked down the aisle with both parents, one on each arm. One thing that could only come from Jennifer Kingsley Harrison. It only made me love her more. When she reached me, she bit her bottom lip and gave me a smile that was as beautiful as it was intimate. That smile was just for me. - Hey. she whispered as she threaded her fingers through mine. “You're a cat. “You're not bad either. I whispered back, a smile

    - Are you going to marry. Adrian's voice was stunned. As if he didn't know beforehand, or as if he'd just heard about it. I raised my eyebrows. “That's why we're here, and I'm in a wedding dress. — Shit. You are indeed getting married. he repeated. I frowned and was about to ask if he still had a hangover, but then he spoke again. “You should remain a spinster full of cats. “I hate cats, Adrian. I laughed at him. - Even so. Who's stupid enough to marry you? - His brother. Stop playing the repressed bitch at my marriage. “I'm not being repressed. Adrian smiled at me and then hugged me. - You look beautiful. My brother won't know what hit him. But I admit I'm a little jealous that you're getting married and I'm not. “Maybe you can drag Dylan to a little chapel here in Vegas. Has he rested from the trip? Dylan didn't come to Vegas with us, he had some errands to do before he left England, but he got on a plane a few hours later so he arrived just as Adrian and I were back from

    Pierre stared at me expectantly. I was teary-eyed and my words stuck in my throat. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't say no. Honestly, when I met Pierre I never imagined, not even in my wildest dreams, that he would be my husband. And here he was now, waiting for an answer that was sure to be clear on my face like the moon outside. - Yea. He let out an audible sigh. I laughed and brushed the tears away with the back of my hands, then he walked over to the little table, opened the box and knelt down. “Jennifer Kingsley Harrison, it's a great honor to make you my bride. Thank you for accepting to make my life a happier life. He put the ring on my finger, stood up and pulled me to him. We pressed our lips together and walked over to the bed. "Why don't you let me put that rack's lingerie over there?" I asked against his mouth as he kissed me. “We can skip that part. He slipped his hands behind my back and unbuttoned my bra. “And go straight to the end of the night. I smile

    “Wake up, sleepyhead. I heard a noise in the distance. — Hey. Wake up. I felt soft kisses on my back. "Are you really going to want to stay in bed with the day I've prepared for us?" Teeth started playing with my ear. Hands cupped my ass and then my breasts. Okay, now I was wide awake. — Hmm. “Finally, an answer. And then, the hands were gone. “You weren't supposed to stop. I grumbled. “I'd love to start the day with sex, but we're going to have a full day. Pierre laughed, a low, husky sound. "But what about postponing it to the end of the day and the beginning of the night?" If all goes well, I hope to be inside you before nine. I turned my head back and saw a small mischievous smile on his lips. "Pierre Lawrence, what are you up to?" - Stand up. he just replied. He kissed my forehead and got out of bed. I stretched out still under the sheets and decided to find out what he was doing. I took a quick shower and went to meet him on the bedroom balcony. The view

    “If I didn't want you all wet, we wouldn't have come here. Then he raised a naughty eyebrow. The next second I was in the icy water and felt it taking over my whole body. — Pierre Lawrence. I coughed and cursed him a thousand different things. The cretin just laughed. I splashed water on him, making him cough too. He did the same, instantly making me feel colder. This went on for some time, until the temperature of the water no longer mattered. “Shall we go swimming?” he suggested, and I nodded. He was pretty sure we looked like crazy people, swimming and playing in the water in the middle of the night like we were kids, but we didn't care. - Cum! — When he suddenly screamed, I swam to his side. - What happened? “Just a damn crab. he muttered, and I started to laugh. - It's not funny. He grumbled, sounding like a child. “Oh, yes it is. He took my hand, pulling me to him. - Come here. You are so beautiful. Normally, I would have shied away, especially since I was
