Jack’s POV
What kind of man does not even buy his bride a wedding ring? She deserved so much better than him. “Well stick with me and I will spoil you”.
“I don’t need to be spoilt” She blushed while playing with the watch.
“Here let me put it on you” I lifted her hand and placed the watch and bracelet on her wrist. “I was thinking I could take you out for lunch. I would say just the two of us, but with Phillip still out there I would rather take the men as back up”.
“I would love to go out for lunch with you”.
“Great, stay here I just need to check something with Ryan and Grant, then I will come back and get you”. I quickly walked off and found Ryan coming out of my office.
“Hey boss I emptied the briefcase and put the cash in your safe. I will go and dispose of the briefcase now”.
“Great, I was just coming to ask about that. Also, wh
Charlotte’s POV“Well stick with me and I will spoil you”. Jack told me.“I don’t need to be spoilt” I played with the watch he has just bought me loving the way that it glittered under the light.“Here let me put it on you” He lifted my hand and gently placed the watch and bracelet on my wrist. “I was thinking I could take you out for lunch. I would say just the two of us, but with Phillip still out there I would rather take the men as back up”.“I would love to go out for lunch with you”. I was not sure I would be able to get used to someone spoiling me so much.“Great, stay here I just need to check something with Ryan and Grant, then I will come back and get you”. He was gone before I could respond.I did not see the point is sitting here doing nothing, so I stood up and made my way to the stairs. I passed Warren on my way.“Hey, where are yo
Grant’s POVI was glad that Jack was fine with me staying behind. I was curious to see how Phillip and his leg were getting on. Once the other left I went to my room and booted up my computer I logged into the tracker I had placed on Zac’s Phone. I was shocked that he was at his sister’s house, I wondered what Phillip was doing to allow him to leave. I would have thought he would need to keep him close since he is unable to drive with his leg. I guess I would need to wait it out and see where Zac went to next. I went to make a coffee while I waited, when I came back the dot was moving. I grinned as I sipped my coffee wondering where my Zac boy was off to. I almost spat out my coffee in shock when I saw the dot stop at the house where Charlotte used to live with Phillip. I cannot believe he has moved back there, why not stay in a hotel or buy another place? It did not sit right with me that he would move back to the place where this mess all started. Did he h
Jack’s POVShe hopes that my dreams come true, does that mean that she wants to marry me too? I could not get the grin off my face as the waiter came over. Thankfully it was a male, so I did not need to worry about them being rude to Charlotte. I was getting so sick of it that I wanted to start shooting them. Once we had all placed our ordered the waiter quickly left. I could not blame him, the men all looked angry after the way the maître d treated Charlotte. I could not blame the guy for feeling intimidated.“Are you ok” I asked.“Of course, why would I not be? I am in a nice restaurant with you and our entourage” He laughed motioning to the men at the other table.“Because of the way that woman looked at you, I don’t want you to feel hurt by other actions”.“Jack, I spent the last few years of my life been abused. I can take a few dirty looks and comments”.“But you s
Charlotte’s POVJack has been so sweet to me, I cannot believe he notice me getting food envy when the boys got their mud cake. We got into the car and made our way home. I wondered if Grant would be there when we arrived. I still felt bad that he did not come with us. Once we got back, we all made our way to the lounge since Warren and Lance had decided that we should all watch yet another movie. I had started to realise that was all that they liked to do in their spare time. I had watched more movies since living with the boys then I had for the last few years living with Phillip. Jack sat down and pulled me on to his lap, I let out a sigh as I got myself comfortable. I grinned when I saw Grant come in and Jack patted the seat next to him for him to sit down and join us.“Did you find anything out today?” Jack asked him.“I did, Phillip has moved back into the house that he used to share with Charlotte” I noticed him watching me a
Jack’s POVI tried to watch the movie, but it was so hard to concentrate with Charlotte on my lap. I kept looking at her instead of the movie, then when she caught me looking and pulled me down for a kiss, I lost my control and spun her around to straddle me. I deepened the kiss and could not contain my moans, fuck I have never wanted anyone so badly in my life. Then fucking Ryan had to go and open his big mouth and ruin our moment. I glared at him after Charlotte excused herself and left the room.“You’re a twat do you know that”.“Sorry, but I could not resist boss. I have never seen you lose it like that before and I did not think that Charlotte would be like that”.“Well now you have all embarrassed her” I growled.They all looked away bashfully.“You are all going to do something to apologise to her” I told them as I got up and went to find Charlotte.I entered our room,
Charlotte’s POVAfter our bit of fun in the shower I was feeling more relaxed, even after the conversation about babies. I had no idea Jack even thought about having kids, to be honest I had never thought about having any before now either. Maybe it would be nice to settle down with Jack and start a family.Once we were all cleaned up and dressed Jack forced me to face to guys and carried me down the stairs. I was not impressed, I was not ready to face them and see the looks of disgust on their faces. They had to deal with women throwing themselves at Jack all day, and here I am fucking straddling him while they are trying to relax and watch a movie. Jack sat me down in the kitchen and turned me to face the guys. I didn’t want to do this, I tried to stand up while telling the guys to just forget that it ever happened. Only Jack was not allowing that and pushed me back down on my seat. I wanted to curl up in a ball, I did not want to do this.But they
Jack’s POVI was surprised about how much fun we all had making dinner with Charlotte. As soon as we sat, and I had my first mouthful I almost groaned. The flavours and texture were just amazing. I now hoped that we could get her to cook for us more often.I was so happy when Grant brought up her cooking more often with us helping. I made her a promise that I would make sure that she had at least one person to help her at all times. She even made us chocolate cake for pudding. How had Phillip treated someone so perfect so shit?Once we were done Charlotte collected all the dishes and started to clean up the kitchen. I glanced over as I was about to get the men to help when I noticed that she was bent over, and I could see right up her dress. I glanced at the men and thankfully they did not seem to have noticed.“If any of you dare look towards the kitchen I will doc your fucking pays for a month. I want you too to get up and leave now&rd
Charlotte’s POVWe pulled up outside the office and I did not want to get out of the car. I wanted to ask Warren to keep driving. Jack climbed out and offered me in hand, damn I could not get out of this. He looked at me with so much affection that I could not abandon him. I took his hand and let him pull me out of the car. As soon as I was out his arm went around my waist and he leaned down to give me a soft kiss on the cheek.“I promise you will be safe, if they try to hurt you, I am sure that the men will fight over who gets to shoot them”.I could not hold in my laugh as I looked around at the men who were all nodding enthusiastically. “Ok I guess we should get this over with then” I groaned as Jack started to steer me towards the entrance.As soon as we entered everyone stopped what they were doing and observed Jack with his arm around me. I could feel them turn their attention to me with hatred. I had gone from been no
Jack’s POV“You!” Charlotte screamed at me “This is all our fault” She screamed as another contraction shook her.“Its ok dear, just push” The midwife told her.“Fuuuuccccck” Charlotte gasped as she pushed.“I can see the first head”Yes, first head, we found out when we went for our first check up that Charlotte was pregnant with twins. Ryan one that bet so one the money that Charlotte got from Phillip and Gavins bank accounts. As for the sex we decided not to find out, so the men are all waiting eagerly. Charlotte told Grant that she did not want the property from Phillip. We have the farm to Doc who is living happily on his own. He opened his own clinic and sees all the locals and charges them a super small fee.“It’s a boy, congrats” The midwife smiled as she called me over and I cut the first cord.“One more boy and I win the house Phillip shared with Jane” Ryan rubbed his hand together.It turns out that was the first prize, and the second prize was the house that Phillip shared
Charlotte’s POVI woke up with a grin on my face, it was Christmas morning and today Jack would find out I was pregnant. I rolled over and frowned when I realised that the bed was empty. I heard the shower running so climbed out of bed and made my way to the bathroom with a frown on my face. “What have I told you about leaving me to wake up to an empty bed” I pouted.“I only just got up to get the shower started, I was just on my way back to you” Jack tried to explain.“Ok” I walked into his arms and leaned up to kiss him “Merry Christmas” I mumbled against his lips.“Merry Christmas my love” He smiled “Come on we need to have a quick shower”“Why?” I asked rubbing my hands up his chest.“Behave” He chuckled “I have things I need to attend to this morning and some important people arriving that I will need you to greet with me”“Really?” I groaned as I quickly showered like he asked.I walked back into the bedroom, and he walked into the wardrobe and came out with a red velvet knee le
Jack’s POVI woke up to Ryan ringing my phone, I groaned as I slid out of bed and left the room.“What” I growled into the phone.“Your delivery is here, where do you want it?”“Shit, coming” I quickly ran down the stairs and got the delivery driver to place the tree in the lounge and the boxes of decorations down in front of it. “I better go back upstairs” I told Ryan as I ran back to Charlotte. I was shocked when I entered the room and the bed was empty, but then I heard the shower running and quickly made my way towards the bathroom. I stood enjoying the sight of her naked stood under the stream of water.“There you are” She grumbled “I did not like waking up in an empty bed”“Sorry babe, I just had so sort out a delivery. I have time to join you now though” I quickly undressed and joined her in the shower. I missed looking after her, I spun her around and started to wash her hair and her body while he tried to find out about the delivery. She seemed surprised that I did not try to
Charlotte’s POVAs soon as we got home, I hid the baby grow in Ryans room and then Grant started to show me around the rest of the property. I was shocked at how large it was, they had their own orchard and grape vines. This place was amazing, lastly Grant took me to see the pigs. They are tucked away behind the cells, what made sense.“Did Phillip get fed to them?” I asked.“Yes” Grant told me. “Does that upset you?”“No” I told him honestly “I am glad that he is dead”“On that note, you now own all of the properties that Phillip and Gavin owned”“What?” I looked at him shocked“You also have all their money too”“No” I pulled out my phone and almost fainted when I saw my bank balance.“Jack has taken over their business dealings, but I am sure if you wanted them, he would happily pass them on to you”“Fuck no, he can keep them”“The Doc was wondering if he could stay in Gavin’s old place”“He can have it” I told him “I don’t need any of the houses or the money. Give them all away to
Jack’s POVAfter Charlotte left, I went back to my computer and booked the holiday. I decided that we would bring in the new year on a tropical island.“Do you not think it was odd that Grant was so eager to go with them?” Warren asked.“What do you mean? He enjoys spending time with Charlotte”“I know, that’s not what I mean. It just seemed like he had to go with them as he did not like the idea of Zac going”“You think that he has an issue with Zac?”“No not that, I am not sure what I think. I just think it was odd how keen he was to go with Ryan and Charlotte”“I will talk to him later at the house and find out what is going on” I told him. “I don’t think it will be anything important” I decided that I better get back to sorting out the payroll while Charlotte was gone. Since she was helping me with the gift cards, we might be able to finish work early.“Have you thought about getting tree for the house?” Warren suddenly asked.“What?”“A Christmas tree, I know we don’t usually do
Grant’s POVI went to see the Doc first thing on Monday morning, while I had been gone, he had gone though and found a few positions that he wanted to apply for. All we had to do now was sort out his resume and figure out what he had been doing for the last few years.I had spoken to one of my old mates in the special forces and he said he was happy to act as a reference for the guy if he needed one. So that’s what we added to his C.V, he had been a medic for the special forces.Once his resume was updated, he sent off for the jobs. “Now I just need somewhere to live” He sighed “I cannot keep living here”“I was going to ask Charlotte if it would be ok for you to stay at Gavin’s old place”.“No one knows were that is” Doc looked at me in shock “He kept that very well hidden”“I have the location, and the property is now in Charlottes name, it’s a nice little lifestyle block. I thought that would suit you”.“Really, is she would be ok with me staying there that would be amazing. I will
Charlotte’s POVI looked at Grant in shock “How did you?” I was starting to panic, would the others figure it out so quickly?“Oh my god, am right” He looked at Ryan “You’re a sly dog how long have you known?”“Not long, I found out the same time as Charlotte”“And that was?”“Saturday morning” I sighed “It was Grace who figured it out when I vomited after smelling coffee”“Shit, so no more coffee for you” he laughed.“Well not for the moment no, but please don’t tell Jack. I want to wait and let him know on Christmas morning”“You should go get a little jumpsuit and wrap it up for him”“That’s such a good idea” I smiled at him, I could get it embroidered with something like ‘Heir to the King’ I laughed.“Ok you have to do that” Ryan told me.“I will, but right now we should probably get back to the office before he has a mental breakdown” I laughed. I could just imagine how much he was stressing, wondering if I would come back.“You going to tell him what she told you?” Ryan asked as
Jack’s POVAfter Charlotte left, I slumped in my chair, now I just had to wait and see what happens. I did not understand why she would want to cameras and stuff disabled. Was she scared that we were lying to her about me getting drugged? I hated waiting, I wanted to leave and go home so I was there when she was finished with Hannah. But I knew that was a bad idea and I needed to be patient and wait for Charlotte to come to me.Warren came and sat in the seat opposite me “What do you think she will ask Hannah?”“I have no idea and that’s what worries me” I sighed.“Lance told me that she said something that shocked both Ryan and Grant that stopped walking in shock”“Does he know what she said?”“No, they were too far away” “Fuck I hate waiting” I growled.“You are not the only one, we all want her to come back home” Warren told me as he stood up and went back to the door.I groaned I needed something to keep me distracted. I opened the internet browser and started to search for roman
Ryan’s POVThe whole time I was in Jack’s office I was on edge, waiting for him to blow up at me for hitting him. I eves dropped on his conversation with Zac thinking maybe he was going to give him my job and fire me. Only he was offering him a job as Charlottes driver, I guess I did still have a job. Once Zac left, I waited for him to call me over. I was wrong yet again as he called Charlotte over instead and started telling her that he had Hannah in the cells, and he had kept her alive for Charlotte. Honestly my head was swimming right now as I watch Charlotte set rules in place for her going to see Hannah. I was impressed when Jack agreed, and I got to go with her. Yes baby, I was going to have a very interesting afternoon.Then Jack offered her a coffee, I was about to step in myself and quickly take it away. Thankfully Charlotte managed to get away herself.Jack then called Grant and Charlotte went back to her desk to wait, now he was going to call me over and tell me this job wi
