THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT THREE
CHAPTER THREECAMILLA“My Dad phoned you? I am so sorry about that. I promise I will speak to him” I said for the second time, feeling unease and a slight hint of embarrassment.I had not expected my dad to take the idea of me working for his competitor lying low but calling the man?“Don’t worry, I already handled it. I am only phoning you to be sure Daddy has not succeeded in changing your mind”“My mind is not changed. I want to work for you” I counteredNathan paused for a second before he continued speaking.“Then you are to resume your duties tomorrow. Do not think I will go easy on you because you are some rich heiress and neither will my people… in fact, they are going to eat you up by the time you are introduced to them” He warnedWas he worried about me? I thought to myself and then shook my head to clear out such thoughts.He was just telling me what to expect nothing more.“I don’t expect anyone to go easy on me; I am going to prove myself” I reassured him.“That’s good to

CHAPTER FOURNATHAN“I want everyone to meet Camilla Rodrigues; she will be working here as from today till I say otherwise.” I announced when I was sure I had had everyone gatheredThere was a round of murmurs which I had sure been expecting before they all began clapping to acknowledge what I had said.This was one of the reasons I had made her my personal assistant… to keep her away from the ravenous wolves in my company and to also keep her close to me.She was something of a study and she intrigued me]“Thank you very much, Mr Clark.” She preened, smiling from ear to ear. “I am going to be doing my best and I hope to work exceedingly well with each and every one of you” She announced.Another round of applause before I sent them all to their duties.“Camilla” I nodded at her“Mr Clark”“Nathan” I corrected her again.She blushed, hiding her face away“Nathan” She whispered.I stared at her for longer than necessary not admitting to myself that I was committing her face to memory.

FIVECAMILLAI sighed in relief, my knees weak as I sagged into my chair.Okay, today was going well so far except for the…Coffee, I joltedHe had asked for CoffeeI scrambled to my feet, reaching into the drawer and pulling out the special brew he had mentioned. I had not asked him if he liked his coffee black but I could tell he did.It did not take long for me to get the coffee up and I walked slowly back to his office, pausing at the door and taking another deep breath.I rapped once, waiting for his response.“Come on in” The deep rumble of his voice came through.I pushed the door open, pausing for a second when I saw that he had put on glasses.Nerd, I thought to myself, resisting the urge to stare.He was a sexy nerd with those glasses perched atop his nose and the sleeves of his shirt rolled up to reveal corded muscles.“I did not ask if you wanted your coffee black” I explained as he accepted the cup from my hand.Our fingers touched and I bit back a yelp.“I like it black

SIXNATHANI was furious… I knew Ben had been a very wild card the moment I had decided to accept money from him for investments but to think he would dare.Of course, after all these years… I still had to prove myself to all of them.Rich snobs with nothing on their hands than money to spend and parties to attend. I still had to prove to them that I was worthy to walk toe to toe with them.It was upsetting enough after the untimely death of my wife and the reading of the will where she had given the company, there had been protests and investment pulled out because no one wanted to deal with a gold digger.They all though I had had something to do with her death and even her family contested the will in court but it would seem that my wife… bless her soul had made sure to make it loophole free. There was nothing they could do but accept the fact that I was going to be the new director and owner of the company.It had taken me years to get it off the ground and we were even now still

SEVEN CAMILLA Benjamin Cooper had mentioned something about taking his deal and investment to Jason Rodrigues in a bit to falter Nathan. Of course he had not idea he had been yelling vulgar words to the child of the said man and I would be damned if I allowed my father accept or even work with such a person. I grabbed my phone and placed a call to his direct line which he picked up on the second ring. “What is the matter, angel? I am in a meeting right now with a client.” He murmured into the phone. “Is this client by any chance Benjamin Cooper?” I asked “Are you keeping tabs on me for your new boss, little dove?” I could hear the mirth and also the question in my father’s voice. He wanted an explanation as to how I knew about his meeting and if he could trust me now that I was working for his competitor. “He used to invest with Nat… Mr Clark. I don’t know if he mentioned it?” “He did and he says Clark walked him out rudely because of something minor?” “Dad” I yelled. “He is

EIGHT NATHAN It was indeed juicy news because by the time I awoke, I had received twelve phone calls, all from Christian about what he termed ‘trendy news’. “Tell me that is not why you called me so many times” I growled into the phone. “Easy, tiger… what are we going to do about it?” “We will do absolutely nothing, Christian. Now if that is all… I am going back to bed” Apparently, the man who had taken our pictures had gone to the press with it and it was now making waves on the internet much to my amusement. They have to get a life one of these days, I thought to myself as I hurriedly dressed for work. I would not fault Camilla if she decided not to show up to work today because of the news and I only wondered what her father would say. No doubt he would tell her that he had told her so and this is what she gets for not listening to him. I could hear the annoying voice of Jason Rodrigues informing her of how much bad news I was and how he had warned her to stay as far away f

NINECAMILLAI should not have said what I said, I berated myself for the third time that day, staring at Nathan’s office door.I wondered if I should apologize for what I had said. I knew the topic about my father was sore and I should have kept mute about it but…He was infuriating if I was to say the truth. Talking about my father like he was some mortal enemy of his and there was no way I could have kept quiet at that, boss or not.I sighed, knocking on the door in front of me with the cup of coffee in my hand.“Come in” He ordered.I scampered into the office with my eyes searching out his. He did not raise his head up nor acknowledge my presence while I dropped the cup gingerly on his table.“I want to apologize for what I said… it was insensitive of me and I know I caused whatever is going on right now” I blurted, feeling my heart pounding in my chest.I did not know if he was going to say anything but I finally got him to raise his head, his dark eyes surveying me. I felt tens

CAMILLAI sighed at my reflection in the mirror for the umpteenth time, staring critically at the dress I was picking for our date.It was sequin blue and most definitely too formal to go to the tracks.The thing is I had never been on dates before that did not involve family events and occasion and parties where I had to be the prime and proper daughter, smile at the men my father introduce me to and try to listen to them boast about a lot of things.That was why I was having problems picking out a proper outing dress. It was definitely too late to hit the mall for something other than heels and dresses and so I decided to settle for pants.No one could go wrong with pants and a plain tee accompanied by sneakers.I was soon dressed and began to pack my hair up before I recalled Nathan’s stern warning about liking my head down.I blushed again at this, shaking my head. He was just messing with me so why did that somehow do something entirely different to my system.I have had men come

THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT CAMILLA
CAMILLAAfter the previous day encounter and the kiss… I wasn’t sure I wanted to be on the same team with Nathan.In all honesty, I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted.My lips still tingled from the memory of Nathan’s kiss, and yet, the feeling did NOT settle in the way I expected. It wasn’t the passionate rush of desire or the warmth of something more. No, it was an unsettled ache, a reminder that whatever this was between us was anything but simple.I stared at the ceiling, my mind spinning in a hundred different directions. My thoughts kept circling back to that kiss.Why had he gone and kissed me?The last thing I needed was to get caught up in Nathan’s mess, in whatever internal struggle he was going through. I could not afford to lose myself in him. Not again. He had kissed me, and now I had to decide whether to let it go or pull back before things went any further.I dragged myself out of bed, staring at the clock—7:00 AM. My meeting with Nathan was at 9:00, but I had a hundred t
THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT NATHAN
NATHANI was stalling.Her apartment had grown quiet except for the rhythmic ticking of a clock on the wall, but I stayed seated at her table, watching her stack dishes in the sink. My car was fixed. My excuse to linger here was gone. Yet I couldn’t bring myself to leave.She moved with a confidence that was uniquely Camilla. She wasn’t trying to impress anyone…least of all me…but damn, she did. I traced the curve of her spine with my eyes as she walked back into the living room, her bare feet soft against the floorboards.I should have been thinking about Eleanor. About Trish. About Alicent. About the cold-blooded satisfaction I would feel when the truth about Eleanor’s death finally saw the light of day. But all I could think about was how Camilla and how I should be apologizing to her.“You’re awfully quiet,” she said, sitting across from me, tilting her head to study me.“I have been accused of worse.”She rolled her eyes. “You are always like this. Mysterious and brooding. You wou

CAMILLA “Good morning.” I started at him, unsure of exactly what I was looking at. Then it hit me: the smell. Warm and savory, the scent of something cooking drifted through the air…eggs, maybe toast. It was so out of place… he was out of place here. I moved, the motion sending a fresh wave of pain through my skull and a queasiness to my stomach. I groaned again, slower this time, trying to steady myself. “Morning,” I mumbled hoarsely, my voice barely more than a croak. He was standing by the stove, his back to me, a pan in one hand and a spatula in the other. His shirt was untucked, the fabric clinging to his broad shoulders in a way that made him seem even larger than usual. In my tiny kitchen, he looked impossibly big, like he didn’t belong there, yet somehow…he fit. “What are you doing?” I asked, my voice weak but laced with confusion. Nathan glanced over his shoulder, his profile catching the morning light. His hair was a little messy, like he hadn’t bothered t

CAMILLAIt was useless feeling sorry for myself, I thought.The lighting in the club was low as I stepped in with my friend, Bella.“Not bad” I murmured.“Told you” She responded triumphantly. “This is what you need to get over him. Nathan Clark is an asshole and should dump him in the dust where he belongs”I wanted to correct her that he wasn’t an asshole, he was merely disturbed but I did not.I was not here to sympathize with him or even think about him. I was here to have fun and that is what I am going to do.I was putting on a red dress and it complimented my eyes way more than I thought it would.“Come on, we should get a drink” Bella pulled me to the bar.The bartender winked at both of us and then asked what we would likeIt was at the tip of my tongue to say nothing but I was at a club, wasn’t I?“Sex on the beach” I announced.Bella turned to me, surprise in her eyes. I was pretty sure she thought she would have to force me to drink.“I would have the same” She told the ma

NATHANThere was nothing to say as I dropped Camilla off at her home.I waited until I was sure she had gotten in before I headed in the direction of my mother in law’s house.I pushed in Christian’s number, my teeth gritting as it rang.I was furious.I did not want to admit I was more furious at myself than anything.“How did your date go?” Christian’s asked as soon as the phone line clicked.“Send me the name of the witness” I grunted.“What is wrong?”“Send the name, dammit”“You need to calm down, Nathan. Where are you going?”“To settle this once and for all” I told him. “Now send the damned number to me”I hung up before he had the chance to say anything or convince me to back away because I would not.I drove way above the speed limit, stopping only when I had gotten to the mansion’s gate.It brought back memories of family dinners where I had to defend Eleanor over and over again. Where snide remarks about the reason I was with her reached my ears and she said nothing about

CAMILLA“I did not think I was ever going to see you again, Camilla” Sarah smiled as soon as I entered the restaurant.She wagged a finger in Nathan’s direction, shaking her head at him.“With the kind of food you sell? I will be coming in here for a very long time” I smiled back.Nathan and I took our seats and waited.She had a queue as usual and I could not help the smile as I glanced around.“You would have watched your father kill me” Nathan commented.“I admit that would have made me feel better for a bit” I told him.He appeared shocked but I could tell from the way his eyes twinkled with delight that he thought it hilarious.I had not expected he would go over to my parent’s house especially seeing as I wasn’t there in the first place.My father however had called me when he arrived with a gun to his head and asked if I wanted to see him. I had hesitated just for the fun of it“I deserved that”“Yes you did” I agreed.“Thank you for coming here with me”I nodded once.Sarah dr

NATHANI was pacing like a fucking clown.I was expecting Camilla at the office today to discuss the project that we were involved in together and I could not help the restlessness coursing through my body.I wasn’t one to be this nervous about anything.“Deep breaths” I told myself, trying to go along with my instructions but to no avail.So much so that when my receptionist announced her presence, I had worked myself into a frenzy.My breath caught in my throat as she walked in, her eyes taking the room before settling on me with stark clarity.What had I been thinking? I thought.Starved of attention?Who was the blithering idiot now?“You look well” She commented, taking the seat in front of me.“You look beautiful” I murmured.She paused, her eyes meeting mine.Sparks flew, that was for sure.“How do you feel?” She asked instead.“Much better. Thank you for attending to me yesterday. For even accepting the phone call from me”“Of course, I am not a demon even though I do hate you
THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT CAMILLA
CAMILLAI stared at my ringing phone with Nathan displayed boldly as the callers ID.What the fuck did he want?I however put it to my ear, my heart jumping at the sound of his voice“Camilla, I know you can hear me” He rasped“What do you want?” I asked.“To talk” He answered.His voice appeared tortured… like there was something wrong with him and for a minute I was concerned before my head overrode my stupidity.“Concerning the project-” I began“Not concerning the-” He sighed, his voice trailing off.“I need you” He muttered softly that if I had not been paying attention, I would have missed that simple statement.“Mr Clark” I stopped when I heard his labored breathing.“Is something wrong with you?”“No, its nothing… I just need to speak with you”“Nathan, what is the matter? You sound distressed”He chuckled and then I heard him cough in the background“You are not concerned about me now, are you?”“This is not a joke, what is wrong with you?” I asked again, feeling panicky.He

CAMILLAMy father drove us straight to the house and I did not argue nor say anything when we arrived and my mother enveloped me in a hug.“Oh baby” She crooned.“I am okay” I reassured her“Come on in”I inhaled the familiar scent of home, my muscles relaxing.“I am going to bed” I announced.Their words fell over themselves as they agreed immediately to my request.My eyes closed as soon as I fell on the bed. I did not want to think of anything, I did not want to begin to analyze the anger in my heart directed at one person in particular.When I finally opened my eyes, it was noon.I made my way downstairs and was met with the searching eyes of both my parents.“Are you okay, baby?” My mother asked.I took a seat beside them.“I am not some fragile child you have to be worried about always, mother” I said.“You are my child and I have every reason to be worried about you” she countered.“I am going to be fine” I told her.My father said nothing but I turned to him anyways.“I have d
