I wore my dark shades once again before alighting my car and locking the door, making my way into the company and into the elevator almost immediately.It was some minutes after ten am on a Monday morning, the date my dad had scheduled for me to meet my future wife. My dad and cousin were going to be in the meeting as well, while the girl I was getting married to would be coming with her dad– the owner of the company that was going to get us out of our debts, and one more person so we can all sign the contracts with a witness on both sides.I got out of the elevator and into the conference room, my dad and cousin already present- as expected.“I just knew you were going to be late.” My dad drawled out as I sank into the seat on his right hand side.“Good morning dad.” I murmured, completely letting his comment about my tardiness fly past me..“Morning son,” He replied immediately and I rolled my eyes behind my shades.“Good morning dear cousin.” My cousin sang out from his position on the left hand side of my dad and I pursed my lips in irritation, forcing the words threatening to fly out my mouth at him back down.“Eric,” I acknowledged with a nod of my head to spite him, whipping out my phone in the next moment and dismissing him immediately.The phone beside my dad rang and he answered it instantly and listened for a few seconds before gushing out, “Show them in right away.”I puffed out a deep breath, this was it, I’m finally going to meet the girl I’m sure I’d never be able to get it up for but would be getting married to anyways.The door got pulled open and we all got to our feet as the guests made their way into the conference room, a girl’s heels loudly clicking on the floor as they got closer to the large table. I glanced pointedly at my clasped fingers, still not ready to see what she looked like.My dad started welcoming them with my cousin jumping in right after him. I quickly tried to calm my fast beating heart as I slowly glanced up from my clasped hand.“This is my son, Nathaniel.” I heard my dad call out and I glanced up instantly, stretching my hand out for the owner of our former rivalry company.“Hello sir,” I murmured, breaking the handshake almost immediately.“And this is his daughter, Marie, whom you’d be getting married to.”I glanced at Maria and quickly shook hands with her, murmuring a quiet hello to her as well. She looked like every other female; long hair, cute face, tits, hips, bleh.“Oh and that’s her elder brother, Michael.” I glanced towards where my dad pointed and felt my throat clogged up instantly, feeling like I suddenly got doused with tiny sprinkles of ice when I least expected it.Michael-Michael was jack?The man whom I had cut all ties with was Maria’s brother...My head started to spin.I didn’t stretch my hand out for a handshake, and neither did he. He just kept staring at me, an unknown expression crossing his face right before he averted his gaze.Wait a sec...Jack was the brother of the girl I’m supposed to get married to?And I’m supposed to still agree to this so-called marriage?Was his name even jack?Just what the fuck is life trying to do to me?After a few seconds of us standing still without exchanging handshakes, I picked up my briefcase and phone and headed out of the conference room, ignoring my dad’s and cousin’s frantic calls.I got into my car and drove out from the company as fast as I could, with no particular destination in mind.Related chapters

Nate’s POV Fuck.I was so fucked.First of all, what the actual fuck?I did not need this to happen to me at a time like this, it was very obvious that I wasn’t doing all that well after what had happened between Jack and I, and how I had abruptly ended things between us.Or in this case, should I say ‘Michael?’Was his name even Jack to begin with, for fuck’s sake.How was I supposed to go about the whole marriage thing when the woman who I was supposed to be getting married to, was Jack’s –or Michael– since it seemed like his actual name was Michael— younger sister.How was I supposed to agree to the arranged marriage now that the woman whom I was supposed to get married to, was the younger sister of the man whom I had been hooking up with in secret– and was already starting to develop some unexpected feelings for, without even realizing it.I had always had rotten luck since I could remember, but this took the cake.How would I ever face any of them again? How would I stand befor

“What do you mean you’re not getting married but you’re also getting married.” Avery demanded and I started to speak once again.“Well, you see…” “Are you joking with me right now, Nathaniel Blake Harlow?” Avery demanded, placing emphasis on his demand by listing out my full name, and also proving the point that he was indeed dramatic, without realizing it.“I swear to you, I am not.” I echoed out, lifting my hand up to rub against my face, puffing out a breath and moving my weight from foot to foot a little.“Then what’s honestly going on?” He asked, his voice loosing all that edge which had suddenly surrounded it as soon as he had immediately concluded that I had been keeping some huge thing about myself away from him.“Like I said up there, yes, I am getting married, but then—” Avery cut into what I could say before I could complete my sentence, he was extremely fond of that shit,“I thought you said you weren’t getting married?” He demanded, starting to sound genuinely confused a

“Well, you see… that’s not even the main problem of this whole thing.” I informed him after a moment, right as I crossed my foot over each other on the ground with my ass still plastered on the hood of my car.“Oh, there’s some more problems?” Avery echoed after me and I nodded my head out of habit as I breathed out a reply.“Yeah, afraid so.”“Tell me about it?”“So, you see… there was a guy.” I paused as soon as I had breathed out the first sentence while I knew already had Avery completely hooked, because he started preening almost immediately.“Did you say there was a guy… ‘was?’” He demanded and I bit on my lower lips and allowed my eyes to slide shut, as soon as the urge hits.“Yeah, there was.”“Okay?”“So…” I continued after a moment.“Let me guess, you guys hooked up?” Avery chipped in and I grinned a little as my eyes rolled around in my head a little.“Why yes, of course we did.” I confirmed and breathed out a chuckle as soon as he snorted at me through the phone.“But

“Yeah, right. You literally promised this same thing some minutes ago.” I pointed out.“I didn’t mean it then, I mean it now.” He replied without missing a beat.“Well, as I was saying before I got interrupted by you countless times, what I was trying to say was that, the dude who I had hooked up with for more than a night…”“Over ten times.” Avery chipped in and I let out a loud sigh.“Sorry, sorry. I won’t interrupt you again.” I heard him breath into the phone and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at that.“Well, you won’t believe this but the guy whom I had hooked up with a couple of times… or more, is the elder brother or the woman who I am supposed to get married to.” I said into the phone and breathed out a small sigh immediately after that.A small silence stretched out between us and it lasted for a few seconds before Avery's voice started to fill out the silence. “The fuck?” He demanded in a tone which almost perfectly represented my whole thoughts as soon as I saw Jack

“Sir. Excuse me, where are you planning to get gas? You are occupying a parking space meant for customers only. I am sorry, but if you are not getting gas or buying anything from the store, I am going to have to ask you to leave.” The cute gas station attendant snapped at me in an annoyed tone.I muttered profanities under my breath and then schooled my features and plastered a fake ass smile on my face, then flashed it at him.“I am sorry. I needed to call someone and ask what the person would like me to get at the gas station again. I had forgotten what they asked for earlier. I was going to get gas too. I hope I did not cause you too much trouble. Did I mate?” I replied, trying not to sound like the fucking mess I was.His face became flushed, and almost immediately, he was the one struggling for words.I- it's okay, sir. Er. So um, I should fill up your tank while you get what you want from the store? He finally managed to say. He was probably embarrassed he had spoken to me th

Nate’s POV I huffed out a breath as the traffic thankfully started to reduce drastically and cars started to be able to move forward more faster than they had been able to do, about half an hour ago. I stared out the window and lightly carded my fingers through my hair with my second hand lightly grasping the side of the steering wheel and controlling it slowly as the car started to slowly move forward, inch by inch.My phone started to ring once again and I ignored it until it stopped ringing, I didn’t even bother myself to check who it was because I had a feeling it was going to be none other but my father, wanting to demand where I was at, at the moment, and why I had stormed out of the conference room almost immediately the guests arrived, without any sort of information.I dragged the palm which was buried deep into my hair moments ago, over my face for a fast second as I felt another slow breath whooshing past my parted lips on a small and quiet sigh, with my mind start

I huffed out a breath as I slowed down the car as soon as I had almost arrived in front of the apartment where I lived in, before finally slowing completely down when I arrived at the entrance of the big gate. I hit the horn button a few times before the gates started to slide open automatically, it just needed to be controlled by a single button and all the gateman had to do was to confirm who it was before sliding the gates open. I drove into the compound and headed straight into the garage corner where I finally pulled the car over and switched off the ignitor before pulling the key away from the key hole. I reached into the car consule and fished out my phone before shoving it carefully into my pocket.I leaned towards the passenger seat and retrieved the whole stuffs which I had gotten from the small supermarket beside the gas station, a couple of hours ago, right before I stepped out of the car and pushed the door shut, and then I tapped on a button on the car which wou

I dug out my keys from my back pocket and inserted it into the keyhole, turning the key around in there until the door creaked open, and then I pulled down on the doorknob to get the door open. I stepped through the threshold doorway and got into the house, before turning around and staring at Elena who was standing a few feet away from my door, in the direction opposite side, while probably waiting and hoping I’d invite her in.I scoffed a little beneath my breath before lifting my head until I was staring at her, and then I raised my right hand up and waved at her a little.“Bye Elena, and thanks for the coffee offer.” I said to her and reached for the handle of my door, starting to tug it into place almost immediately.“It still stands, the offer still stands, and you wouldn’t be a bother.” She called out to me in reply and I nodded my head once at her, my cheeks lifting in a fake and little smile which hurts a little, right before I finally shut the door in her face, cutting i

Nate’s POV I got out of the car and slammed the door shut, right before I locked it with my key and did a 360 as I started to make my way out of the garage, heading straight for the main building of the house. Talking to my mother was a lot stressful and I feel so drained at the moment, it doesn’t matter that it’s been over three months since we spoke last, she made sure to spend over an hour with me on the phone today, and majority of the time which she had spent talking to me, was used in discussing about my supposed birthday and whatever it is that I wanted for my birthday.I made my way into the elevator and leaned against the wall as it started to limb up the floors, and then I decided to check what the time says after a few seconds, it was currently some minutes before it gets to two p.m in the after and I allowed a small sigh to fall past my lips in the next second, once again, I had successfully managed to starve myself today seeing as I haven’t had a thing to eat since t

Nate’s POV “Oh, you remember my birthday this year?” I asked almost immediately and I heard her voice huff a little in my ear before she started to speak.“Of course I do.” She replied instantly.“Well, you forgot it last time, and didn’t even remember until after one good week.” I reminded her as I started to slow down, seeing as I was almost home, and I paused the car at the front of the big gates, knowing the gates were going to get pulled open by the security men after about a minute. “Aw, come on Nate, it was that one time, and I got too swamped with work during those times, which was why I forgot.” She started to argue and I rolled my eyes a little as I drove my car through the now opened gates, straight into the garage.“Doesn’t make it hurt any less though, I hope you won’t end up forgetting this year’s own because of your work…” I said to her in a low and flat voice as I turned off the car engine and pulled the key out of the keyhole.“I didn’t mean to forget it that
The Billionaire’s Forbidden Want Chapter 38
Nate’s POV I made my way into my car and got into it after accepting my keys from the security, for security reasons, it was a rule for every cars that come into the company’s premises to submit their car keys to the security men, to avoid a situation where someone with a bad intentions can come into the company to do quickly do something and hope to get out as easier as that. I dropped the file which I had retrieved from my office into the spot on the other side of the car seat and I started the car instantly.My kind drifted backwards a little as I started to drive out of the compound really slowly, and before I completely drive out of the compound, I noticed that my dads car, as well as Eric’s were still here, which made me start to think that it was like they were still upstairs in dad’s office at the moment, and I scoffed at the thought a little as I drove out or the compound completely, into the busy roads in a fleeting moment.Today was the first time I was exchanging m

Nate’s POV Once I was done there, I tugged out my handkerchief from the inside of my suit jacket pocket and used it to wipe my face softly, lightly dabbing against my eyes that looked a little bit swollen at the moment. I heard the main restroom door start to get pushed open and I turned my head around instantly, locking eyes with a set of familiar eyes in the next second.“Nathaniel? How have you been?” Lucaa asked as he made his way into the restroom and pushed the door closed behind himself. I inserted my handkerchief into my pocket and hoped that it wouldn’t be obvious that I had been almost having a breakdown when I had made my way into here, as I turned around to stare at him. I forced a smile onto my face as I started to speak.“How–” He didn’t even give me a chance to speak before he was cutting into my words, as he closed the distance between us and started to speak.“What’s wrong, Nathaniel?” He asked in a small voice as he stared down at me with concern at the edges
The Billionaire’s Forbidden Want Chapter 36
I remained silent after that and after a little while had passed and I had started to feel my anger almost completely melted away, I turned back around and started to head back towards the table, where my dad and Eric were currently sitting and discussing quietly, and they were going through some kind of files as if we didn’t literally just all got into a fight eith the two of them being on the same side and completely disagreeing with me, like it had always been shive I was little, and that was how it still was today.Both men’s heads turned around to stare at me when I finally made my way towards the table and both didn’t bother to say a thing as well, as soon as I arrived towards the table, perhaps they were expecting me to sit back down into the chair that I had vacated when I had gotten unto my feet and or something, I was most definitely sure that they got really shocked when I grabbed my phone which I had placed oh my dad’s desk and inserted it into my pocket. I stared pointedl

My father dragged his hands over his face and said nothing after that, while Eric and I still remained silent, both staring down at my dad.“Aren’t you going to go ahead and apologize to him?” Eric asked from my side and I ignored him but it was at that partic moment that my ears had chosen to start to ring in such a way that was also affecting the insides of my head as well. I lifted my hand up and started using it in tapping against my ear as also using my fingers to massage the side of my head above my right ear as well.I was still trying to make my anger reduce when Eric started to speak again in a low voice. “Fucking apologize to your father, you spoilt–” I turned around before he could complete his sentence and grabbed his shirt collar eith both hands, and I tugged him forward until we were pressed lightly against each other and were both staring into each other’s faces. I faintly registered the fact that my father has also flew up to his feet instantly and had started to hasti

Nate’s POV “Nate, I don’t want you to take this personal –” He started to say but I turned sideways to stare at him as I started to breath out in a low voice.“Shut up, Eric.” I growled at him but he didn’t look like he was barely dazed by my words and only paused for a moment before starting to speak once again.“I really hope that you see sense from what I said to you instead of taking it personal.” He breathed out and I pushed out a small chuckle that wasn't funny one bit to my ears one bit as I started to speak. “Shut the fuck up.”“You’re still not getting what I was trying to say, this was exactly what I meant when I said –” He started to say once again but I shook my head and cut into what he was saying.“No, Eric, shut up. Just shut up, shut the hell up this instant.” I said to him in a low whisper, and of course, my father was going to choose that moment to interfere.“Nathaniel!” He said in a loud voice and I dragged my gaze off Eric’s face to turn back around until

Nate’s POV “Do we honestly have to do this?” I asked my father in an exasperated tone as I shook my head at him a little. He didn’t even bother to pretend to be fazed by my movement as he slowly gave a nod of his head, right before he carried on with speaking loudly like I hadn’t just spoken up. It was a Monday morning, three days after I had go over to my dad’s friends house to go have dinner with him and his daughter, Marie, and here I was at my dad’s office on a Monday morning, with my immediate cousin sitting on the second chair beside the one I was currently sitting in, and our eyes were both focused on my dad who was standing on the other side of the table.“So, since they were the ones to come here that time and couldn’t even start the damn meeting because Nsth chooses to ruin it before it even started by walking out on all of us, we’re the ones that are going to go over to their company today in order to go get the contracts signed.” Father continued and I slumped down i
The Billionaire’s Forbidden Want Chapter 32
Nate’s POV I made my way out of my car once I had driven into the apartment’s compound and had parked my car in my usual spot in the garage, alongside some other cars. I had two cars here in the garage. It was the rule of the house that you can’t have more than two of your cars parked in here: and so if you’re one of those people that usually own more than that, you’re to find where to put the rest of your cars in, or you can just decide not to rent the apartment to begin with– it’s really as simple as that. I made my way into the lobby and into the elevator as fast as I could. My legs were starting to hurt and my headache had thankfully reduced, which I was thankful about, but then my stomach was starting to churn, and I knew it was because of the fact that I haven’t had dinner this evening yet.I glanced down at my wrist once the elevator had started to move up the floors and saw that it was almost a few minutes before the time moved to past eleven. I carded my fingers th
