A cold environment is in the conference room. Everyone in the conference room is showering with sweat, though the air conditioner is working perfectly. All know that today either their salary will be deducted or will they lose their job. They are waiting for their boss who can enter anytime in the conference room.
Michael Pattinson, the CEO, and owner of Pattinson Group. He is facing losses in his several business branches, mostly in the publication's company. Today the Pattinson group's share has fallen unexpectedly. God knows well what is going on in his mind.
As expected he entered the conference room at sharp 11 am. This is the most accurate part of his character. He never forgets his commitments and always maintains the right time.
Everyone in the conference room stands up. Michael doesn't even care to ask them to sit. He starts speaking without any greetings. All are listening without a blink. All are in the hope of not losing their job...
...
The Pattinson group lost its reputation. There was a time when we were at the top of the share market and today we are on the bottom line. I need to take full control before we are declared bankrupt. All shareholders are pressurizing to get back their invested amount.
In this situation what to do, I am not getting anything in mind. I enter the conference room with all of these thoughts. All are looking so tense. I prefer not to pay attention to that. I start saying, "I hope you all already know about the share market fall. Now suggest to me, how can we get over this situation?" I asked but no one was answering. Which gives a boil in my blood.
"Why do I pay you all? Do you love your job or not? I want any solution within the evening, otherwise all fires. Now get back to your cabin and think. Go." I shout at them. They all left by looking at the ground. I know I shouted without their fault but what can I do? I know one of them or a group of them is with William. Who are they I don't know. But now what should I do? I need to get over this situation. I can't afford to lose my position. Though I already lost enough. But I can't anymore.
"Now, will you calm down?" I get Jack's voice.
"I am calm enough. Can't you see?" I am irritated with him.
"Yeah. I can see that. Now, relax and think. In anger, you can't think of anything. We both know that." He is trying to make me calm.
"Can anyone be calm in such a situation? Can you imagine we will be declared bankrupt?" I am explaining to him with a soft tone.
"I can understand but we need to survive not attend to a war. So first think how to balance everything." Jack is really cool-minded. If he wasn't in life what would have happened to me?
"Okay. You suggest, now what can I do?" I asked him.
"Let's go to a club. You will get so many, girls. I know you will be happy after that." His line surprised me.
"Are you okay? You always stop me about this matter." I asked him with shock.
"Because now I want you to be happy. And I know you, about girls you always keep interested. After all, you are the playboy in our college. Nope, I am wrong about our city. And we both know your advantage William took. Now, let's not extend this. Let's go to a club. We will have lunch after that and return to the office. Then we can decide calmly. Okay?" He is the boss now.
"Okay let's go. If it's about a girl did I ever deny it? No, right? Let's go, Jack." I am so excited now.
We led our way to a club. Though the club is the best place for the night now I can manage. One girl, at least one girl I will get there. Jack is driving and I turn on the music system in the car. I play the 'Playboy' song by Trey Songz. It's just perfect. Jack is giving me a mock smile. Who cares? Let's enjoy life, Michael. I concentrate on the song.
"We are here," Jack said to me. I look through the window. Great, the Yale Club of New York City. I just love to be here. The best part is here we can get all the classy girls. Who is the perfect combination of hot and sexy? I give a wide smile to Jack and come out of the car.
I can enter the club within a few minutes. I got a few girls. Wow, I thought only nights are better to get girls now I am proven wrong. I take a glass of Sapporo beer. I am taking steps back by looking at those girls and my back bumps with someone. I turn back and it was a girl. Her open silky brown hair is looking so perfect through the backside. I try to look into her face but she starts walking.
It seems that she is in such a hurry. I also follow her. Suddenly she stumbles with a chair. I hold her right hand and this time also her hair becomes the obstacle between my eyesight and her face. She doesn't even care to thank me, just releases her hand and leaves. I am looking at her from the backside. She is walking like a ramp model. Perfect figure. I just wish to have her with me.
"For the first time, you are looking at a girl." Jack's voice brings me to reality.
"Yeah, I just wanted to see her face but couldn't." I am disappointed.
"Is it love at the first sight?" Jack is teasing me. Yeah, I am also surprised but I need to stop him.
"Just chill. Girls are toys to me. My favorite things to play." I said and Jack was already irritated. I start laughing. He leaves me smirking.
Hello readers, Here you are at first sight. Lol Precisely, first hair sight. Hahaha. I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you all.
Ema's pov - Where are you, Abigail? We are getting late. After 5 mins the gate will be closed then we won't be able to sit for the exam. Then my eyes caught her sight. She is running to me. Her hair is bouncing in the air. Her silky smooth brown hair always attracts attention in the crowd. She reaches me. "Sorry, sorry, sorry. I got late. Why are you waiting for me? Let's go." She is huffing and saying. I smile at her. "You know that I never enter into anything important in my life without you. Then why are you asking me that?" We are walking towards the gate and talk. "Okay, okay. I am sorry." In the middle, we enter college. Now, we need to check our seat plan. Today again it has been changed. "Best of luck. Today is the last exam for our graduation. Then just project and research report submission with defense." Abigail is so excited. "Yeah. You will shine for sure. What about me? You also know what I do in results. Just pray I can pass. That's it." I am saying that we are che
Michael's pov - Now, what will I do? Though I am smiling and laughing, there is no way now without a miracle. But how will I handle the rest? I need to talk to Dad. Other businesses are okay but the publications! Now that has no income. All of the employees are getting paid by other businesses. But Dad is attached to the business. I can't deny the fact that today we are known because of that business. But emotion won't run the business. "We are at the office, Mick," Jack tells me as I am not getting out of the car. I look at him and get down from the car. It's filled with journalists. What the hell! "Sir, sir. What will you say about your share fall?" "Will Pattinson's group be shut down?" "How will you handle the situation?" "The shareholders!!! Will you gulp their money???" I couldn't answer any of them. I just avoided them with the help of guards and entered the office. I didn't meet with anyone, not even Jack. Just sitting in my cabin. At 4 pm, I have a meeting with all boar
Abigail's pov - We are visiting the factory and clicking a few pictures of their work process. "Hey, what are you doing here?" That guard uncle. Damn. What is he doing here? "Now? He is here." Ema is holding my hand and hiding behind me. But where will I hide?! "I am asking something. What are you doing here? And how did you enter?" He is coming closer to us. "What are you doing here? Your duty at the gate, right?" I am trying to manipulate him. "I came here because the manager called me. But how did you enter?" He is so angry now and is literally shouting. Shit. God, please open the mouth of the ground; I wanna get into this. "What is happening here? Why are you screaming?" More security guards are here. Ema is holding my arm tightly. I look at her like no one can save us today. I can imagine my face now. Biting my lower lip with my eyebrows up which surely shows my eyebrows' dimples. Gosh. From where to elope, I am just searching that way. I can hear the uncle guard is alread
Michael's pov - After finishing the internal meeting, we head to the jewelry shop to form this broken chain into a pendant. I am driving and Jack is resting his head as he is suffering from mild migraine. "I insist you go home and rest. I will be at home in no time." Though I know his answer, I still want to try. "As you are going home in no time then why should I leave you alone?" This stubborn friend won't listen to me. It's better to concentrate on driving. We reach the shop and they ask for an hour so I won't leave without taking it. I took a cab and sent Jack home forcefully. I choose to walk around to pass the time. I take off my blazer and keep it in my car. By folding my sleeves and unbuttoning my shirt's top two buttons, I start my walk carefreely. Without the car and a proper dress up, none look at me which is a lit in the heart. I walk almost for 10 minutes and the tune of the violin hits my ear curtains. It is gentle, soothing, and calming. I couldn't control my legs no
Abigail's pov - It's really a tiring day. The whole day just something or something. I am already fed up. I hope no more fancy things are waiting for me. I just don't want to visit that bar. I hate to be there but I have to go as I am not getting any part-time job. My phone is ringing. Argh, who is calling now? It's too late. I take the phone. It's Ema. Me: Hello, what happened? Ema: Wait, I just called and you are showing your attitude. What happened, ma'am? Me: Nothing, you say. Ema: Our exam is done. So, I am throwing a pajama party at midnight. Just come home now. Me: What! I can't come all of a sudden. Moreover, I am so tired. Ema: You can rest here. But you don't have any option without coming here. Me: Okay, whatever. I hung up abruptly. I am already pissed off. I know their pajama party. It's another mess up. I am walking without any attention and suddenly I feel I am unable to move due to pain. My vision is blurry and I am lying on the ground. What happened? Did somet
Michael's pov -I came home for a shower. Her face is coming in front of my eyes. The delightful bird has no movement. The way mom...My thought halts due to Dad's call."Mick. What's wrong? John told me that you returned with the blood-stained shirt. Is everything alright?" He is sounding worried. I wrapped the towel around my waist and came out of the bathroom."Hey, are you okay?" I hug him tightly."I repeated that Dad. I hurt someone again. So badly. I can't live with the guilt of being a murderer again, Dad." I fail to hold myself to him."It's okay. Just relax. What happened? Tell me." He is trying to console me."Dad, Actually..." I share each moment with him."Hmm." He sighs. "Let's go to the hospital. We can bring her back at any cost. Did you inform her family?" We are standing. So, I told him to sit down."Her mobile was fully destroyed. Jack went to fix that. Hopefully, it will be fixed." I enter my dressing room. I take my suit and change into it."Now, let's go." Dad is
Abigail's pov - I feel like leaving the earth anytime. But this Mr. Stranger gave me a smile to live again. I don't know what this feeling is but he is someone who is unavoidable. I close my eyes as I have pain in my whole body though I can't feel as much as before. A sigh comes from my core. I thought I would meet with you, Mum and Dad. But alas. I am here again without you. No problem. Sooner or later. I will be there. Then we will live together. I am smiling in my thoughts. "Abigail. How are you?" I am scared due to this sudden call. This Ema. "I am fine." I can say this and she starts crying by holding me tightly. "You are not looking fine. Don't lie. I won't leave the person who did this to you." She is in dramatic mode now. "I am fine and this was an accident. The person hit me. He brought me here immediately. Be sensible, Ema." It's tough to talk so I am talking slowly. "Are you sure?" She breaks the hug. Thankfully, I can breathe now. "Yes, you also know I hate those who
Michael's pov - The whole day, it took time with several meetings to detect mostly the projects of our group which are at a loss. But in this, the book publishing company has been in full loss for years. I have to discuss this with Dad. I don't have any other option right now. I have to shut down that company. "What are you thinking, Mick?" Jack enters with a file. "Pattinson Publication. It's been a loss for so many years. I think we should close this company." I look into his eyes from my computer screen. "Are you serious? Dad will never agree with this. You know the reason. He is emotionally attached to this." He is trying to explain to me which I know. "Emotion won't run a business. I have no option without this. Do you think I want to do this? Moreover, I already have an idea about Dad's reaction. But I am helpless. Not only this, I am planning to close 3 more businesses." I don't know what else to do at this moment. "What are you saying, Mick? What about those employees? Wh
Author's POV -[9 months later]As Abigail awakens, she finds herself in a rather wet and unexpected predicament. Without a moment's hesitation, she unleashes a resounding yell, "Miiiiiiiiiccccccccckkkkkkkkkk..."In a remarkable display of Olympic-level sprinting, Michael, wrapped in nothing but a hastily grabbed towel, races out of the washroom, his face an exquisite blend of confusion and concern. "Baby, what happened?"Abigail points to her soggier-than-a-sponge state. "Look at my state, damn it. My water's broken! Take me to the hospital!"Michael, in the middle of trying to don a pair of trousers and an inside-out t-shirt, pauses for a moment, contemplating the situation. "Just a moment, let me wear something."But his fashion crisis is swiftly dismissed as Abigail, with a hint of a smile, quips, "You wore the t-shirt's wrong side.""Leave it. You and the baby are more important." He hastily adjusts his pants and tugs the t-shirt to its rightful orientation. Scooping up Abigail in
***mature content*** Abigail's POV - I am flying in the ninth sky. My every ride and his grip on my hip. I fail to hold for more and cum again. I fail to stay on my knees but his grabs make me get into the missionary position and he is still inside me. He starts thrusting without any warning. I pull him closer. His strong biceps are my pillar now. His joystick is quite large for me to take. Still, it's a pleasure I wanted all the time. There is no manipulation or conspiracy. Only our love and us. He leaves my grip and gets on his knees. Our sweated bodies, heaving chests, and louder exhales are the witness of our pleasure. He brings his dick out and grins at me. "Let's take a 5 minute break. You are so exhausted. I don't want this night to end faster with our tiredness but to keep it alive till dawn or maybe later." He starts kissing me all over my body. I doubt he is leaving an inch to travel his brim against my skin. He again holds my legs and gets on his knees. "It's time for an
Michael's POV -I break the kiss and pull her closer. I make her sit on my thighs and take the ice cream. "Do you know? There is a unique way to have ice cream." I want to start what I wanted for a long time slowly."What is that way, Sir?" She has a shy smile on her lips.I put a little bit of ice cream on her chin and lick it gently. She quivers into my arms. "Mick.""It's my turn. You said that you would let me do everything I wanted after our wedding. So, it's the time. Isn't it?" My husky voice and her ear lobe. Just a perfect combination. I am sucking her ear lobe and she is releasing a slow moan."Did I say no?" I grin at her reply."I want to put you into the swimming pool and get inside you but that might be later. It's not going to be two or three rounds. Maybe the whole night." I am on her neck now. My grip is around her so tight that I will not allow her to move if I don't want to."Anywhere or anything. I am okay with everything." Our love is now at the peak of lust.I lif
Abigail's POV -Our wedding day, and it holds an even more special significance this time—it's our 3rd anniversary. Mick chose this very day for our re-wedding, and we've been eagerly anticipating it for weeks. Today, I have a unique wedding gift for my husband—a manuscript of my new book, 'Fragrance of Love 2'. I know it will light up his face with joy, and that's precisely what I want to see.As I hold the bound manuscript in my hands, I hear his voice calling for me, and a smile tugs at my lips. "What is my wife up to on our wedding day?" he asks, his eyes dancing with excitement. "I can't wait to recite our vows again. I wish we could have a grand celebration, but I respect your wish."He pouts playfully, and I can't resist the urge to pull his cheek gently. "Mr. Husband, I want this day to be special in its simplicity, just for us." I say, putting a quick peck on his lips."But after the wedding, Abby, there's something I've been patiently waiting for, and you've been using this '
Michael's POV -The morning sun barely peeks through the curtains as I awaken, wrapped in the warmth of Abigail's embrace. Last night was nothing short of magic, the kind that leaves you in awe of the universe, feeling blessed and alive. Her peaceful slumber beside me is like a painting, serene and beautiful. I gently brush a stray strand of hair from her face and plant a soft kiss on her forehead."Good morning, my love," I whisper, my voice a gentle murmur in the quiet room. She stirs, her eyes fluttering open, and a smile graced her lips."Good morning, hubby," she replies, her voice a sweet melody that warms my heart. She stretches her body, her bare back exposed, and I can't help but admire the graceful curve of her spine. But as I lean in to kiss her, she covers her chest with her hands, her cheeks flushing a delightful shade of pink.I can't contain my laughter. "Are you serious, wifey? I held you undressed all night, and now you're covering yourself?" I playfully tease as I tuc
Abigail's POV -"Why did your husband try to put my wife behind bars? How could I stay passive?" William's voice clashes with mine, both of us brimming with anger."Now you can understand, can't you? Your wife attempted to murder his wife. Wouldn't he seek justice? I let that go, so you shouldn't attempt to harm my husband," I retort, my eyes blazing with fury."What is happening here?" Ema, that cheating friend of mine, suddenly appears out of nowhere."Your husband tried to harm my husband. I swear, Ema, if you don't keep your husband under control, you might end up a widow, and no one can stop me," I seethe, my words dripping with resentment and disdain."Mind your tongue, Abi," she snaps, but I cut her off, a storm of emotions fueling my rage. "Abigail Pattinson. Address me by Abigail. You've lost the right to call me Abi. Besides, I would love to slap you harder, but if I did, it would be considered animal abuse, and I don't want to stoop to that level," I declare, my gun still po
Abigail's POV -Days flow steadily, like a calm river winding its way through life's landscapes. I sit at my desk, penning down words that weave stories of love and heartache. Fragrance of Love, my most successful novel to date, brought the intoxicating aroma of success into my life. Now, I'm immersed in crafting its sequel, Fragrance of Love Season 2, hoping to give the love it couldn't find in the first part—a story mirroring my own life's journey, finding its path to happiness.These past two years have been transformative. The catering business Chole and I started, now known as 'A&C,' has flourished under Chloe's capable leadership. Despite Michael's proposal for a business collaboration between our companies, I was adamant about maintaining our individuality. Our love might be on the mend, but our businesses remained separate entities.In this time, I've managed to complete seven books, each a piece of my heart poured onto the pages. Fragrance of Love holds a special place, its su
Abigail's POV -Two weeks have passed since that dramatic day in the heart of New York City when I gave Michael one last chance. It's been a whirlwind of emotions, but the most important thing is that he's recovering well. I've been dividing my time between the hospital and home, and even though he's eager to come home, I've insisted on staying by his side at the hospital.Honestly, I can't help but be a bit possessive. I don't like the idea of nurses fussing over him, even if it's for his own good. And, to my relief, it seems that Mick has noticed too.Today, I'm driving to the hospital from home. As I enter his room, I see one of the nurses talking animatedly with Mick, both of them sharing a friendly smile. My heart gives an involuntary pang, and a touch of jealousy creeps in. I can't help it; I just want all his attention for myself.Summoning my bravado, I stride over to them, trying to mask my irritation with a polite smile. "Excuse me," I say sweetly to the nurse. "Could you giv
Michael's POV -Pain pulses through my body as we speed through the city streets, my thoughts consumed by one burning question: where is Abby? I've tried calling her countless times, my desperation growing with each unanswered ring. It's as if she's vanished into thin air, leaving me with a deep sense of emptiness.In my desperation, I dial my father's number. "Dad," I say urgently, "I need you to call Abby and keep the line open for at least 30 seconds. We can trace her location that way."The seconds feel like hours as I wait for my father's call back. Every passing moment is a torment, and I can't bear the thought of Abby slipping further away from me.Finally, my father's name flashes on my screen, and I answer with bated breath. "Dad, did you—"But his words cut me off. "She hung up, Mick," he says with a heavy sigh. "And she sent a message, saying she'll talk to you when she returns to California."My heart sinks as I hear those words. I wanted to see her, to hold her, to beg for
