Part 2

Caroline and I continued to chitchat, still waiting for our husbands while I saw someone arriving from the corner of my eye, I suddenly saw a tiny girl’s chubby hands dangling while she slept. That’s definitely Chrissy’s daughter.

"Chrissy...? Weren't you supposed to come tomorrow?"

"Should I come back tomorrow?" She asked. I fake glared at her and gave her a hug, which was impossible with my pregnant belly and her carrying Jane, her daughter. She handed me a bottle of wine and started giggling to herself. "Aww... you can’t have wine can you baby? " At my frown she mellowed down. "Ok.. ok.. I actually wanted to remind you about tax filing.. other than that your restaurant is doing really well."

"Yeah I know, I remember, how's Jane though?" I pointed to her daughter now sleeping peacefully in her arms. "Is she okay going to school now? No tantrums?" I asked.

"Yep, she's doing okay, but she misses her 'daddy' a lot and I don't know what to say every time she questions me abou

    Evelyn's POVShit! Yupp... that's my first word! That's my first word after I saw Nick's text for the umpteenth time on my cell. First, he gave me a missed call and I foolishly let him know that it's me. I never told him my name. How the hell did he even find out. And then call after call. And here I'm trying to solve Carr's problem. God! She met with this asshole's friend and he got her to sign some stupid papers. Such a cheat! No.. poor guy. Why should I blame him? This woman didn't even take a look at it.'Meet me at the Barista near your house sweetie. Otherwise..... I already know where you live ;-) 'WTF! That's just pure invasion of my privacy. This man is going to get it from me. When he was supposed to marry me, he just pushed me away with his hurtful words and now he wants me back!

Has he gone crazy?"What in the hell possessed you to say that?!" I asked with disbelief. Is he for real?"Look just hear me out. Come on you can't just reject me right away" he said with puppy dog eyes! Doesn't suit him."But you did" I seriously didn't mean to say it out so loud."What?" He asked as I got him confused. Silly me! He doesn't remember me. Well I'm sure not even my parents would recognize me with the way I look now. Actually..... he might recognize but definitely not my parents."Hmph.... whatever! Nothing you say will make me agree to this shit you're trying to convince me about" I said rolling my eyes."I said just hear me out. For once!" He said almost on the verge of pleading. I didn't say anything, but I just s

Cause when I was young, and when they used to come to home, I felt like they were good people. And even now I feel that they're kinda cool.....And we did this for almost two weeks. He kept me in disguise for those days. Wait. What Greek?"Uhm.. yaa... why is that a problem?" I asked confused."No-no... actually it's great. Well my parents are traditional Greek. Soo... it's good that you are Greek too. It's not going to take much to convince them" he said pretty excited. What is he excited to marry me? Is he happy so much?This man sitting beside me is so damn hot! Why oh why! Yes, I've had my fair share of guys, but none have got the

She asked clueless."It was me dear." My mom said excitedly clapping her hands together. "I recognized you the moment I saw you that day. Your parents were so worried when you ran away five years back. We thought we scared you with the marriage proposal, so you ran away. But now everything's fine. You and my son have fallen in love.

And they were hoping to go wedding shopping" he said in a bored tone."What?" I screamed and got up from my bed."When is our wedding?" I asked annoyed that he might have already chosen a date just as a part of his revenge."I have no idea. You should ask them. And get ready. We'll be there soon." He said."What?!" And he cut the call....This man is getting on my nerves. I'm damn sure he would've suggested. And it's going to take 15 minutes for him to arrive here. But I need at least one and a half hour to get ready.Huh! I'm going to take my own time. I don't care what they think. I'm not the old Ev to get ready in 5minutes. Glasses and a lip balm.

Thankfully it didn't break.I stood there alone in my living room about how I'd stop this marriage from happening. There's nothing I don't like about Nick. He's hot. He's rich.

    Part 1"Nick! You come inside right now, or I'll not hesitate to throw your kids from the balcony!" Evelyn screamed.Nicholas gave a tired sigh, looking at Mark and Oliver who were chuckling at him. Throwing a glare at them, he went inside to check on his wife. 'What did they do now?' He thought."In the kitchen!" she called out to him."What-" Once he entered, he saw the floor covered with flour and his kids bathed with it."Do you still have to ask me what's happened?" She said pointing at the two."I din do ith. Ith was all her." His son answered brilliantly pointing at his elder sister. Though he still had to work on his pronunciation, the boy was already on his father's footsteps."The idea wasn't mine either." His daughter replied still playing with the flour.He looked at his wife who was now sitting on the kitchen counter staring at him."Mommy is over reacting, Daddy." His daughter chuckled.

    "What's this card?" Nickflippedit checking what it was that was clutched soo tightly in his wife's hand. Evelyn's eyes were still foggy due to sleep, so she didn't notice that he had it in his hand. She only just 'hummed' with her eyes closed.What he saw inside warmed his insides. A Father's Day card made by her, on behalf of his child. "You made this?" He asked but there was no reply on the other side. She'd fallen back to sleep. With a kiss to her head, he let her go back to her sleep as she curled into him.Evelyn's POV"Oliver? You need something?" It was early in the morning; I woke up to Nick next to me and left the bed early just so I didn't have to face him. I was in no mood to start a fight with him again. But in no mood to take shit from him again!'Yeah right.'My inner voice screamed at me. Back to the reality!I saw Oliver moving his lips and quickly interrupte

    "Nick! Nick!" She screamed. She didn't know that slimy thing was. Whatever it was, she wanted to get out of there. She banged the door hardly. She was cursing herself as to why she gave her phone to Nick.Then she stopped calling his name. "Somebody help!! Help!" She looked around for some clue or some lose end but the room was eerily dark.During this broad day light, there wasn't a single ray entering the room.'There had to be a window or something.'She thought but didn't really have the guts to move around in a room where she had insects moving all over her body.When something passed over her feet she screamed again.'Argh!'Here on the other hand, each time Nick heard her scream, he followed her voice and got closer to her room. The mansion where he grew up in suddenly looked like a maze to him. Her voice echoed from everywhere. "Evelyn? Evelyn, is that you?" He was dreading the answer.She who stepped forward t

    Evelyn's POV"Are you ready? Shall we go meet them." Nick asked and I looked at him nervously."Come on... it's not first time that you're meeting them." Nick informed his parents about mine and this will be first time I meet them after that."First time after they know that I'm their enemy's daughter. And you bloody organized a get together party! Really?""If it makes you feel better then you must know that my dad is really cool with it.""And your mom?""Aaah... she's a different case.""Aww, that makes me feel great!" I said sarcastically. He rolled his eyes and pulled me behind him as he slowly placed my hand on his arm. "I think your mom might murder me." I said in a daze."Don't be stupid! She won't do any such thing especially after she gets to know about our baby.""She still doesn't know?" He shook his head as 'no' and pasted a fake broad smile as he looked ahead at everyone.I dared to lo

    Evelyn's POVNick looked at Riccardo and shook his head. And my newfound brother looked everywhere but me. Uh oh! Wrong question to ask at the wrong time.Now sitting at the table next to Nick, with different varieties of mouthwatering dishes in front of me, I asked him. "What was the look that you gave my brother?""A look that said, 'I will tell her later myself.' Why?" He said and I shook my head as 'no' and continued to devour the food.The entire time, I thought as to how I ended up in my mum and dad's hands. They were cruel, yes. Rude, mean, unfair and partial... but I still considered them as my parents. I only just ran away, but I never thought of hurting them.Nick held my left hand bringing me out of my thoughts. "You're not having anything?" He asked.I looked at my untouched plate. "I'm having..." I whispered back at him. Except for Raymond... as in my father. Everyone was happy looking at us, extremely happy wit

    Evelyn's POVI woke up to find Nick glaring at Rand who had come with a breakfast tray. Had I not guessed before! That I see something strange in Rand."You may leave now... I know about you now. You work forhim.""Now that we know... I think it's fine." I tried to convince him."Actually, I worked as a cook at the Salvatore's... I know how to work with a knifeanda gun." He looked really uncomfortable having this conversation."Great!" I took the tray from his hand and shooed him out of the room. "So, you'll continue to work here." I said and closed the door on him. Only that I didn't see Nick fuming behind me. I waited and waited for him to say something... I could see the nerve on his jaw working. I looked at him, waiting for him to say something... but he just picked up his suit jacket and left the room."I'll be back late at night." I heard him scream behind my shoulders.

  • The Billionaire Playboy's Bride   Chapter 37: Partial?

    Evelyn's POVThere was an awkward silence with Nick and Riccardo looking at each other. No more glares. They were both looking like fools."Any mutual enemies?" I asked. Again, they gave a blank stare. "So, I believe you are not going to fight anymore?... Gosh! Stop giving me that blank stare!"Riccardo stared at us both and I moved closer to Nick, he pinned me with his eyes and when he knew that I wouldn’t be forced into submitting to him, he gave a nod and stood up buttoning his now torn suit jacket. "I'll leave for now. I'll come and pick you later Evelyn." He smiled. He smiled!"You're not taking her anywhere-"Ugh!"Nick! Stop it now! Aah..." I turned to convince Riccardo, but he already nodded with understanding and left."Why did you leave the mansion?" He asked once I turned to look at him.With a huff, I walked out of the house and threw the key at him. "Lock the door."I sat in my car and w

    Evelyn's POV"Are you serious!" I gritted my teeth looking at that face."Who's that hottie..." Chrissy squealed next to me.And then he stood up with his hands-on hips pushing his suit jacket away which revealed his gun attached near the belt.Chrissy next to me, gasped."Don't worry… he'll not hurt us." I whispered. I was sure. A day with him and I almost... already knew him. "What are you doing here Riccardo!?" I directed my question at him stepping inside the house."I've come here to get you. Why else do you think?" He sounded stern. Not ready to listen to anything I say. "Let's go." He gritted his teeth."Eve!" That was Nick's voice coming from behind, huffing. "Eve! Don't you understand! You've already been abducted; we haven't even had the time to-" he was ready to give me long lecture until he saw Riccardo behind me inside the house.I turned around to see him looking behind me at Riccardo.
