The Billionaire's Instant Bride Chapter 10
DAWNWhile I hear Kyle take another shower in the morning, I can't help but hide under the duvet. I can't bring myself to get out of bed because that means I have to run into Kyle again.Can my life get any more embarrassing?What have I done?How will I be able to face him today?The icing on the cake is that I work with him, and he's my boss.My husband is my goddamned boss.I still cannot believe it.Should I move to the guest room and hide in there?As I'm thinking these thoughts, Kyle comes out of the washroom with a towel wrapped around his chiselled torso. The moment he steps into the room, he stares confidently at me.The air in the room changes and I feel like I'm around no one other than my boss, and the situation reminds me of yesterday's afternoon meeting. The same boss who's also standing in front of me, half-naked. And I don't know how to feel about this.Is he doing this on purpose?"Aren't you going to shower and get ready for work?" He has a spare towel around his nec

DAWNKyle accepts the brown bag in his palm and holds it carefully against his chest with a confused smile playing on his lips. He peers inside the paper bag for a moment before his facial expression changes."You didn't have to do that for me, Dawn." Kyle stares at me with tender eyes. "This is awfully thoughtful and sweet of you. But you don't have to repay me in one way or another because I'm doing some things for you. After all, I want to do them."Shaking my head, I situate my gaze on his face."That's not what it is." I smile, remembering the breakfast he has just made me. And how it made me feel to be taken care of like that. No one I'm involved with has ever done that for me before. "This is me trying to care for you as you were trying to care for me. Don't think of it as repayment, but think about this gesture as my heartfelt consideration. That's all it is."He roughly shoves a hand in his hair, fixing it around the back of his head."But still. . ."G

DAWN"I can't believe I have so much work I need to accomplish today." I walk into the office room after getting a coffee refill for myself. Julie is still hunkered down at her desk, trying to fix some things on her current undertaking. "Are you making progress on that project, Jules?""Bah! This illustration is bugging me. It's difficult to fix all these dumb lines anyway." She snorts. "Why did I accept this project without a word? Especially when I knew it was going to give me a headache?"Taking a sip of my coffee, I smile at her."Maybe you were trying to impress Fiona with your workaholic tendencies. And I'll side with you on this one. It's hard to impress her.""It's not just that." Julie sighs. "Anyway, when you were gone, the office manager came in and told me Mr Waugh wanted to see you in his office. So yeah, hurry up and finish your coffee. You need to be there on time because he seems scary."My eyes widen at her response."Really?" Rubb

DAWN"Where did that come from all of a sudden?""Well, I have been thinking about it in the back of my head.""How about I say 'no' because I think I don't need to be extra rude to you just to make our colleagues more comfortable around you?"After thinking for a bit, I agree with his statement, so I nod."I guess I will be okay with that.""Hmm." He stares at me, trying to make out what I'm thinking. "Did someone say something to you? If yes, who was it?"Shaking my head, I put my eyes on the file he's playing with between his fingers. His long fingers are grasping the edge of the pages inside the file so tightly that it seems like if he's going to hold on to it any tighter, he'll rip the pages apart."No one said anything to me." I sigh. "No one has said anything to me yet.""Then why do you look so bothered about it?"I'm bothered because I don't want anyone to find anything about my private business.Why aren't you more bot

DAWNAs soon as I enter my office working space, a message dings on my phone's notification centre in my pocket as the device vibrates against my thigh. Shoving my fingers into my pants pocket, I fish my phone out, excited to see if Kyle has already texted me.But when I pull my phone out and stare at the phone's glowing screen, I see that my best friend, Leslie, has texted me. Running a hand through my hair, I remember I have forgotten to message her back and update her on how my date went the other night. And the crazy thing that I ended up doing because it felt exciting and just right.The sudden marriage.The man I slept with on the first date.These are some of the things that she would never expect me to engage in in a million years.But it happened.I did all of them, Leslie.Guess I should prepare never to stop hearing the end of it.Leslie is not the person to let this go with ease.Shaking my head, I unlock the screen to re

DAWN"Can you pass the hot sauce, Jules?" Julie looks up from her food and moves the few sachets of her untouched hot sauce toward me. "You sure you don't want it?" I check in with her again. "Because I'm going to use all of it. I can leave some for you, though."Julie shakes her head, taking a sip of her green juice."There's no need for that. You can use it all." She smiles at me after she puts her cup down. "Geez, this tastes funky.""Why do you even buy all that green shit? It tastes like dirt, to be honest."She chuckles softly at my choice of words. Then she gestures to the cup."Mine tastes like feet, but, you know, I got to get my vitamins in. I rarely eat any veggies these days, so I'm trying to compensate here." Rubbing her chin, she shoots me a look. "Just let me do that in peace."I wave her words off."Fine-e-e. Drink that earthy dirt smoothie shit for all I care."Julie laughs."Thanks for your support in all of my life

KYLESitting on the dining room couch, I check the time on my wrist.It's so late.Where is she?She should have been here by now.I pull out the phone from the pocket of my pyjamas and open the online text messenger app on it to send her a series of text messages.Dawn, are you still at work?Or are you caught up somewhere?Do you need me to come to pick you up?If that's it, then let me know.I can come by myself or send Neil to pick you up.Then I put the phone back on the glass table, hoping she would text me back soon. I don't understand these feelings of anxiety and dread surfacing from the depth of my subconscious. All these weird cyclical thoughts of something happening to her remain pervasive in my mind, but I push those thoughts into the back of my head and take a deep breath to focus on the present.After waiting another few minutes, a reply arrives on my home screen. The phone screen glows with the incoming mess

DAWNWhen I stand at the threshold of the mansion, ready to press the doorbell, Kyle pulls the door open for me to enter. The sudden motion of the door opening wide open catches me unawares."It took you a bit of time to get home today, didn't it?" Kyle's eyes are hooked on my face as soon as I look up to match his gaze. "I was waiting for you to come home."I watch him step to the side of the door to let me in as my eyes dance and sparkle to see him again, happy to meet him in a relaxing environment minus the work setting. I step lightly into the house, my hands tightly clasping my purse. My heart is grateful since I can notice Kyle's anticipation in his eyes to see me.When I step into the hallway, Kyle hugs me from behind, almost making me heady with his sandalwood scent wafting into the air from his nightshirt and the sudden warm affection. I let him hug me, patting his arm softly."Who made you work overtime?" He asks me the question point-blank. There's no hint

KYLECrossing my hands across my chest, I wait for Neil to bring the car in front of the official building establishment. I am wondering when he's going to get around to pulling the car in front of me. Running a hand across my temple, I massage the sides of my head to massage the nerves throbbing in the right part of my skull.Knowing that I have to deal with my dad tonight is getting on my nerves, and I don't know what to do with it. I have to inform Neil that he's coming with me tonight. I don't know if he'll agree to accompany me.As I'm lost in my thoughts, I see a car pulling in front of the company's parking area and then making its way towards me as I pull on my shirt's wrist. There's a nip in the air, and I somehow feel the cold settling within my skin. I have a lot on my mind, but I also know that I have to just get through tonight.What will my dad think about Dawn?How will he react to this marriage that he doesn't even know about?It's not that I didn't want to tell him, b

DAWN My phone buzzes in my pocket and my hand mindlessly reaches for it. I watch Julie talk to one of our planning team coworkers and she laughs loudly while she playfully nudges the guy on his chest with the back of her hand. She's awfully flirtatious with him today. Is he set out to be her next crush? Julie exchanges a look with me when she sees me staring at them with a confused face. Her eyes offer me a blank look as they tell me to get off her case, so I shake my head and focus on the phone in my hands and the screen gleams before dying down. It looks like I have received texts from someone. When I tap on the power button again, my glowing screen tells me that I have received some texts from Kyle. An instant smile breaks out on my face as I take a step away from our colleagues to read his text in the corner of their office room. Tapping on the messenger chat, my eyes grow wide and my lips part. The smile fades off my features and its place, I reckon fear takes its place. H

KYLE As I flip through the meeting notes Ms Burton left on my table some time ago, a message buzzes on my phone screen. When I pick up the phone to glance at it, I rub my index finger and thumb across the bridge of my nose. What does he want from me? Sighing, I pick up my phone and slide my thumb on the screen, stretching the sides of my neck. Oh, god. Was I supposed to meet him today? Tapping my finger reluctantly on the chat box to access his text, I make a face blow out a series of short breaths when his message pops up on the screen.

DAWNAfter our late afternoon lunch, Julie and I walk in tow to get back to our office room. Fiona has been coming in and going out of our office all this morning as she pleases, trying her best to intimidate us and breathing down our backs. She wants updates about every tiny thing with our new marketing materials, and Julie and I have been whispering about how insufferable she has been about this whole thing. After another discreet meeting with Mr Waugh, about whose details we got to know more from Sophia, yes, she's the person who was talking about my back, told us that Fiona was red-faced walking out of Kyle's office. Fiona's nostrils flared when Sophia tried to ask and more like inquire why Fiona needed a second and clearly a more private meeting with our CEO.Now, Sophia thinks Fiona is the person who is trying to lure Kyle into h

KYLEChewing on my lower lip, I read the email on my computer screen with a raised eyebrow. Fiona has sent mass emails to all the heads of departments, and I have been forwarded that email by Neil. Her email reads like this.Dear Respected Teammates and Colleagues,I think the CEO is trying to make an example of me since I stood up to him, and I need to do better to stay at this company. Can you support me in this process since you were a part of the negotiation he started for me to get a demotion in front of the respected members of this reputed company at the conference meeting earlier?I will cherish your support forever!

DAWN"Good, you're back," Julie declares her words to me as I step into the office room. "You were not kidding when you said you'll be gone for a bit.""I wasn't." I give her a small smile, getting into my desk chair as I suck in a deep breath and release it. "There were things I needed to take care of, so I took care of them." Shrugging my shoulders, I exchange glances with her. "That's it.""Sounds good, Dawn." Julie picks up a stack of files and passes them over to me. "I forgot to give them to you earlier. When Fiona came in to check on you, she brought them with her, and she wanted you to go through all of them by the end of the workday." Stretching her limbs above her head, she yawns. "I have to help you out in sorting the data out too. It's our team lead's orders."

DAWNAs I walk towards the stairway, my stomach flips upside down. A warm need makes itself known as last night's images flash in front of my eyes.I can't stop thinking about him moving between my legs, can I?Just asking myself that question makes my face flush and my eyes warm.I'm glad Kyle is not here.If Kyle was here, I know he would notice I'm blushing.I wonder if he could see right through me.It's not that hard to read me, either.Is it?My pussy walls flutter as my heart throbs against its walls.Why am I feeling like this?It's just Kyle.God, I need to stop feeling this way around him all the time when he's with me.But why do I need him so much?I have no answer to this question either.As I take quick steps towards the stairwell, I finally come face to face with the slightly cracked open door in front of it on my office floor. Opening it slowly further, I peer inside. No one seems to be in the

DAWNWhen I return to the office room, I sit down on my work chair with a plop, exhaling a harsh breath.I have just gotten to work, but it already seems like a long day has passed.Julie looks at me curiously when I turn my desktop computer on, wanting to get a headstart on work, open the attached files on our work messenger and log into my email on my screen. But when I don't say anything for a minute, she bows her head down and focuses on her work."What's going on now, Julie?" I ask her without looking up. "Is there something you want to tell me or ask me?""Not really." Julie shakes her head. "No, unless you want to tell me what happened with Fiona." She wets her lower lip. "Did you run into her or something?""Yeah." Jutting out my lower lip, I nod. "Well, she came into the women's washroom to confront me. Thanks for looking out for me even though you find me cold, rude, and indifferent to your hardships. I got there just in time because of you. A

DAWN"Dawn," the person says in a stern voice. "Are you in there?" The person talks much more loudly this time. "Are you okay in there? It's me, Fiona." Then she pauses. "You can come out right now. I need to talk to you."When I don't say anything, she proceeds to talk into the silence as I sense my tolerance for her behaviour evaporating into thin air when she addresses me again."Dawn. I know you're in there. It's all right. You can come out." She pauses. "You're sick, so I don't want to stretch this longer than it has to be here." When I don't respond in any way to her words, she starts talking again. "Oh, please, for the love of God, you can come out now. I won't bite you." Another pause. "Scratch that. I am worried about you since you are my teammate."My heart beats loudly against my chest.What does she want to talk to me about?Is she for real?Is she acting sympathetic towards me after all this time that has passed where she has done noth
