" Why am I like this? What's wrong with me?" Ava mumbled out loud as she stared at her trembling hands. Des also noticed it and he was confused but also worried. " Why is that? Are you okay?" He asked and Ava shook her head. " I don't know what's going on but I feel somehow. Something is definitely wrong but not with my body. " She replied. Des covered his mouth and chuckled. " If something is not wrong with your body, it might be that your heart is the problem then. Maybe it's because I'm here right beside you that your heart can't help but beat so loud. You must like me so much because I can hear your heart beat clearly in my ears right now. " Des boasted and slapped his chest. " You see, this happens often especially when the girls are pretty. Pretty girls tends to fall in love with me wherever I go because I'm so good looking, hahaha!" Des boasted more and laughed. He liked to brag a lot especially when he realized there was no other handsome guy around except
Ava was shocked! For a moment, she felt like she had lost her senses. She felt like she was in a very bad dream which she would love to wake up from! Her eyes opened wide and she searched around with it but no matter where she looked, the only face in front of her was Mr. Olive's and the warmness on her lips was sending emotions down her throat but the thickest one of it was confusion! " What's going on? What's happening here? Why? Why is he... what's he doing to me right now?" She asked herself with panic in her mind. The lips lingered on hers for a little longer before she pulled herself back and released herself from Mr. Olive's grip. " What..." She was about to question and scold him but was stopped by claps that resounded in her ears. Everyone on seat had a shocked look on their faces. Even though they were the one that brought up the kissing issue, it never dawned on them that their boss would kiss Eva who was a newbie in their company. But it amused them anyway
" Hello? What are you talking about? What are you saying? Talk to me, babe. " Amy shouted over and over again on the other side of the call but Ava already dropped her phone. She cried for some minutes more inside her car before starting the engine and she drove off. " I should go home. " She told herself. The drive back home was slow, sad and full of many indescribable emotions. She kept crying and consoling herself but there was nothing else she could do and there was no way she could call her mother, telling her what she did when she was a married woman. Her mother would never be happy with her and she would be disappointed at her. She parked in front of Harvey's compound and alighted. " Let's check if they will let me in first. " She mumbled. She feared Harvey might have told his men to not let her in. She walked toward the gate and it was opened for her even before she got too close to it. The security man came out and was surprised to see her. " M
" Argh!" She groaned as she felt her back hit the wall. She looked up with surprise filled gaze and her eyes landed on Harvey~ " Harvey..." She called awkwardly but Harvey only moved closer to her. He moved closer and closer to her while Ava took steps backward. Her heart was beating very fast and she kept on moving backward. Before she knew it, she was already in her room and Harvey had entered the room with her, still not saying a single word. " Harvey..." She called again, not knowing what to say or what to do. Harvey closed the door and locked it at the back. He walked over to her and pressed her back on the wall. He looked into her eyes with no emotions on his face but Ava was losing herself already. " Harvey..." She called again but Harvey only replied my placing his hand behind her hair, he grabbed her hair and slammed his lips on hers! " What... What are you doing?" Ava stuttered but Harvey only deepened the kiss. His one hand was on her waist wh
" You want it?" Harvey asked with a raised brow. He had not expected her to reply him that way and it came as quite a surprise to him. Ava nodded her head and forced a smile. " I've wanted you to touch me since the first day I came into this house and you are my husband already, so, I have no reason to stop you when you want to do it. " She replied and wiped the tears that threatened to enter her ears. She sighed " But please, be gentle because it's my first time. " She added before closing her eyes again and she braced herself to welcome the pain that might come with it. She had read a lot of adult books and she had read many books on s*x but what usually bothered her the most was the pain that was said to come with first s*x. She had waited all her life for the man she loved to make her experience that pain and later on enjoy the wonderful moment together. Although, this wasn't the way she had imagined it to be, she still felt curious to how it would be an
Harvey was quiet for a while as he seemed to be thinking about something. He opened his mouth slightly and smiled. " I believe they are two different things. Sex and love doesn't have to come together and I'm a strong believer of that. " He replied. " Jerk!" Ava cursed sadly. " What? What was that?" Harvey questioned with a raised brow. He did not expect her to curse him like that when they were just talking. " Scumbag! I thought you were responsible but..." She stopped as she forced herself up the bed. " I will wash up. " She mumbled with her eyes lowered. She climbed down the bed and stood on her toes but it was difficult. Her legs were weak and she felt pain under her as she tried to lift her legs and walk. She wrapped herself with a towel as she made her way to the bathroom amidst the pain. Harvey watched her leave the room and his playful eyes turned cold. His mind went back to the moment when he saw Ava with Mr. Olive and he hissed. " How did they
" Yes, he kissed me " Ava replied, feeling a lot angrier. She stared at the mirror, gazing at her lips but no matter how hard she tried to remember the kiss, the only scene that comes to her mind was her moment with Harvey. The erotic night from before was playing over and over again in her mind that she felt like she was going to lose her mind to it. Amy was quiet for a while but she soon gasped. " What?! You said your husband saw it? He saw you kissed him?! Another man? No... Mr. Olive at that?!" She was shocked! She blabbered on, asking questions at a time. Ava nodded her head. " Yes. I was so scared that I spent minutes crying before I could drive home. The only thought on my mind was that he was going to send me away from his house, thinking I'm a betrayal or maybe a spy that was sent to him by Mr. Olive. My mind wasn't settled at all but surprisingly, he did not make a big deal out of it. " She replied and smiled excitedly. " He did not make a big deal o
" Trust in me?" This wasn't the answer Ava was expecting and it gave her quite the shock and surprise! She opened her mouth trying to say something but kept closing it back several times. " Is he seeing me as someone important already? Is he liking me already?" She questioned in her mind and her face was full of delight. " I won't disappoint him either. " She replied as she stepped out of the car. The man bowed. He dipped his hand in his pocket and brought out a watch. " This, Ma. Boss asked me to hand this over to you. " He said as he handed the little device over to Ava. Ava stared at the device for a second before collecting it. She had seen the device in movies many times and she knew what it was used for. Without asking any question, she placed it on her wrist as a wristwatch and smiled warmly. " I should press on this incase of any emergency, right?" She asked and the man nodded. " You should click on it whenever you feel like you're in danger. There is a
" Should we cut the cake first?" Ava asked and Harvey nodded his head. Ava sang a song after which she and Harvey cut the cake but they weren't able to eat much due to their already full stomach and Harvey being someone that never eat too much, he was even worst off than Ava by the time they stood up after eating all they could. " I'm filled already. I want to rest my head. " Harvey mumbled and turned to leave but a low music suddenly entered his ears and he frowned. " What's with that romance song? Who's playing that?" Ava had heard the music too and she was just as confused as Harvey. She was about to talk when she saw the head Maid whispering something to her and pointing at the package at the center of the table. " Honestly, I had forgotten about the gift. She must have realized." She mumbled and slapped her forehead gently. " Let's open the package before leaving." She reminded Harvey, who immediately made an O sound before taking his seat agai
" What? One month Anniversary?" Harvey was the first to ask as he walked over and stood beside Ava. He looked at the table and he was just as surprised as Ava when he saw the decorations on the table. " Yes. We heard from the guys outside that boss went out with you to celebrate your one month anniversary, so we prepared too because we wanted to celebrate it with you. " The head maid replied with a big smile on her face. Harvey smiled. He walked closer to Ava and took her hand. " Let's go see the full package." " Okay. " Ava replied, still in shock. She seemed to still be unable to comprehend everything yet. Seeing everything like that felt like a continuation of her long sweet dream. They moved closer to the table while the Maids all walked aside to give them some space. On the table were Harvey's and Ava's favorite meals and their favorite drinks. She turned her head to look at the maids and a smile beamed on her pretty face. " I never expected this much
" Huh! Is it that late? We've stayed here for so long? I could never have imagined!" Ava exclaimed as she too checked her time and she covered her mouth with shock written on her face. Harvey looked at her and made a questioning face. " Why do you look so scared? Is there something wrong? You are acting as if there was something you were supposed to do but didn't do? What's wrong?" He was so confused to see her so scared. His case was understandable because he had prepared a lot and couldn't do any of the things he had planned but what of Ava? Why did she looked so taken aback and scared? Ava lowered her head, dejected. " I think this is the end. My husband will be so angry with me today. He told me to call him immediately I get home but I've been sleeping since evening. I don't even know where I will meet myself when I wake up now, I was by the road searching for a cab... that's the only thing I remember. Did I board a cab? Did I get home already? Did I call him? I r
" So, all these are British Traditional foods? Wow! I've never seen these before! Wow! I have to take pictures!" Ava was excited. She never expected to see British Traditional food in her life not even when she started her life as a poor lady. She brought out her phone, put on the camera and started taking pictures of the different meals on the table right in front of her. All the meals looked appetizing to her and it was a hassle for her to control herself from dipping her nails in them to taste them. " They are so pretty!" She cheered as she continued taking the pictures. " Prettier than I am?" Harvey joked but Ava unconsciously shook her head which caused Harvey to chuckle. The picture taking went on for a while longer before she finally dropped her phone and clapped her hands. " Now, you can go on with the explanation you wanted to make about the meals. I really can't wait to taste some of them!" She said with excitement beaming in her voice. " My wife
Harvey and Ava continued talking and teasing each other while laughing excitedly as they waited for the restaurant attendants to bring their meals. " It's really nice to be rich. You can do anything if you are rich." Ava teased. Harvey shook his head incessantly " That's not the case. Before, I do think that way too and I thought my life was perfect because my parents were super rich but then... when I started seeing other kids my age, what they do and how happy they were, that was when I realized my life wasn't as perfect as I thought. I believed happiness was all about money. If you have money, you will be happy but it was a total lie to justify the cruel acts of my busy parents. When I was young, I only see my parents face twice a year. Whenever they are free, only twice a year. I spent my birthdays, Christmas, new year with our maids, chauffers and the body guards that were appointed to protect me. They would send me money every week and at that age, I already had
" What?" Harvey was taken aback when he heard her words and he looked at her with a raised brow. The look in her eyes from the beginning had made him realize that she was taking the moment as if it might be her last chance and everything he said and did felt like a dream to her and it made him wonder how cold he had been to her. He smiled. " Harvey is real life is boring, right?" He asked and Ava nodded. " Very boring. He's always frowning too. He never smiled at me before, all he does is mock me, point out my mistake and then act as if I don't exist. Can you even imagine that today was the first time he called me since we got married? He never called my line before but... well... he is changing since yesterday night. " She replied and blushed. " So? Will you like to stay in this dream with me forever?" Harvey pulled her closer to himself and grabbed her waist, putting his nose on her neck. " Will you stay here with me forever and let me pamper you all you want?" His voice
The two left the Secret room and headed toward Mr. Olive's office. The two looked funny to whoever saw them because it was like they changed roles. Ava walking at the front with only her bag in her arms while Mr. Olive followed behind her with numerous files in his hand. " People will talk about this. You should have let me carry it. " Ava complained the moment they got into Mr. Olive's office. She wasn't okay with the eyes of the people around them. She was certain many of them would try to find out what was really going on between Mr. Olive and her. Mr. Olive walked over to his table and dropped the files. He let out a deep breathe and stretched his body. " This is so heavy that you won't be able to even lift it. Any of them that has eyes and senses would know that these files isn't something a fragile woman like you can carry and I will be a bad man and boss if I let you carry this when I have a hand myself. " He replied and sat down. He looked stressed and tire
" Hm... We will be waiting. " Mr. Olive replied without even asking her where she was going or what she wanted to be in the middle of such an important meeting. Ava stood up and bowed a little before rushing out of the room. She went to the room where the blueprints were kept and saw that there were some workers who had not joined the meeting and were working there. She walked to the one nearest to the pink blueprint and bowed. " Hello, Sir, Where is the way to the bathroom here?" She asked and the man who was busy with his work raised his head with a frown but his frown seized the moment he saw Ava's face. He smiled gently and bowed a little. " The bathroom is toward that side. You see that locked door over there? Open it and you will see the female bathroom inside. " He explained as polite as he could. " Thank you, sir. You can continue your work." Ava replied and bowed again. The man also bowed back and returned to his work. " I just have to walk beside i
" Good afternoon, sir. " " Hello Sir." " Oh! Mr. Olive?" " Welcome. It's been a while. " The workers all left what they were doing to greet their boss immediately they noticed his presence in the room. Ava stared at all of them and her eyes landed on Mr. Olive who was standing in front of her with his hands on her shoulder. " What... What happened there? Was that... did we transport here?" She questioned with disbelief in her voice. She had read many books where people would transport themselves from one place to another but she had never heard or seen that kind of thing happen in real life and she believed it could not really happen in real life but what just happened to her? She was outside the first door and before she knew it, she was in the secret room. What happened? The only explanation she could think of was that maybe she was transported from outside to inside by some technology she knew nothing about. Mr. Olive covered his mouth and laughed
