Vicious Comeback Of The Billionaire's Contracted Wife Chap. 37: A MARVELOUS OFFER
37.**Author's POV**2 DAYS LATER…Nicole stood in front of the building of Twilight Magazines with Emily, her heart beating rapidly in her chest. After getting accepted by them, she was asked to come for a talk with the manager today and boy was she nervous.Nervous because she didn't want what happened with Mr. Luther to repeat itself here. She didn't believe in giving her body out to them for them to promote or give her a job — she loved being fair and that's what contributed to her success, before Mr. Stark destroyed it, of course.When she entered, the employees murmured on seeing her. She told them nothing and left for the Manager's office immediately.“Are you nervous?” Emily asked as they took the elevator.“Yeah, but for a different reason.” She pulled a strand of hair behind her ears and sighed.Emily nodded. “I get you, but trust me, Mr. Leo is a nice man. He won't demand something like that from you.” Nicole forced a smile. “I hope so.”When they got to the office, the re

He wondered why Easton was so bothered about her leaving.“Gosh! Why do I even care?” He facepalmed.As if on cue, the door opened and Nicole walked in. She had a smile on her face as she approached Easton.“Hey!” She beamed at him. Easton was shocked because this wasn't something she would do, or was she being happy?“I saw on the news that you'd be leaving for Beverly Hills?” He asked to confirm.Nicole's face lit up. “Yes!” She exclaimed. “Twilight Magazines want me to be the cover model for their high-end magazine, can you believe that?” She exclaimed again. Her excitement was boundless. A

I didn't pack much, since the company would be responsible for the outfits I was going to wear for the photoshoot.I was happy that things were beginning to fall in place for me. I may have acted fine all the time and tried to be tough, but I was hurting deep inside. Imagine losing everything you worked hard for in just one day.I recalled all I had to go through as the memories flashed in my head once more.…flashback…It was a Monday afternoon. I had gotten rejected by the fashion magazine that I submitted an application to and had cried my eyes out before heading for training.“Why is your face all swollen?” Bella, one of the popular models at that time, asked me.“I didn't get any spot in the magazine.

40.**Nicole's POV**My eyes went to Kayla, who looked at me with a mischievous grin on her face. My fists tightened as anger rose within me. Who the fuck do they think they are to utter such rubbish to me?“You must be insane, Mr. Stark!” I snapped and they gasped.“What did you just tell me?” He asked, his eyes literally drawing daggers at me.“I said you're insane!” I snapped again. “What the hell? I can't believe how shameless you two are. Don't you have any conscience?” I asked.“Oh, please, shut up!” Kayla snarled and I faced her.“No, you shut up! I can't believe you have the heart to sit here and watch him demand such a thing from me. You already took my fiancé and spot in this company, what else are you looking for? Why are you being selfish and mean?” I asked and she scoffed, chuckling a bit.“You're calling me selfish? Are you being for real right now, Nicole?” She sneered. “You're the selfish one.

41.**Nicole's POV**“I know you're shocked, and I'm shocked as well, but she just came out of nowhere a few minutes ago, and informed me. It has affected our plans as well, and we'd have to postpone it, but you need to bear with us as we'll be in touch.” He looked at me, a look of regret in his eyes. It made me feel he didn't want this as well. What was Kayla up to actually? Why is she bent on frustrating my life?I sighed and ruffled my hair. I was pissed — really pissed and angry at the whole situation, but it's not his fault, so I controlled myself from taking my anger out on him.“It will be postponed until when?” I asked the most important question right now.He sighed and shook his head. “I have no idea. It's up to Mrs. Sullivan to make that decision. I apologize for any inconvenience that might have caused you.” He apologized and I forced a smile.“It's no problem. Please be in touch. I'll take my leave now,” I stood up to walk out, but the door opened, revealing a slim woman,

This was something she wasn't going to forget in many years to come.Nicole looked at the letter closely, blinking severally. She couldn't believe what she was seeing, even though it was staring at her in the eyes. Frederick was getting married to Kayla? What about her? What about everything they shared? Will she be the one at the receiving end? Was this a dream? “You aren't dreaming baby girl, look at that invitation card very well, you'll see my name and that of my fiancé.” Kayla chuckled.Tears threatened to fall from her eyes, but she held them in. “So, you think you'll live happily for doing this?” She asked and Kayla chuckled.“Of course I'll live well. I'll get married to him, we'll make babies and grow old together. It's as easy as that,” Kayla answered and Nicole sniffed. “You see? Frederick loves me very much. He can d

43.**Author's POV**Frederick looked at her in shock. He wondered what she was doing in his place or was she here concerning what they talked about? If that was the reason, Kayla had already made them release his father. There was nothing he needed her help with now.“What are you doing here?” He asked anyway.Nicole stared at him for a while. She wanted to know whether Kayla was right about the wedding. She wanted to know if that invitation card was not forged. After what Kayla did to her, she knew the girl was capable of doing anything, so it was okay to suspect that she might have forged the wedding invitation card. She knew there was nothing Kayla wouldn't do as she was practically obsessed with making her life difficult.She sighed and composed herself. “I want to ask you a question and I need you to answer me sincerely.” She spoke, her voice barely audible but Frederick heard her.“Come in first.” He stepped out of the way but she shook her head.“I'm fine here,” She said and ex

They couldn't see his face clearly because it was late, but they assumed he was a wannabe superhero or prince in shining armor.“What are you gonna do if we don't let her go?” One of them asked.Easton wasn't in the mood to exchange words with them. The way they held Nicole already vexed him enough.“I'm going to count to three, if you don't take your hands off her, you'll regret being born into this world.” He folded his hands.They laughed at how authoritative he spoke. The one in the middle approached him and laughed in his face. “Who do you think you are? Why are you being so arrogant and rude?” He tried to poke Easton's forehead, but Easton slapped his hand away.“I'm giving you an opportunity to let her go, so you can go scot-free. Your stubbornness is making me change my mind. It seems your head needs to be set straight.” He removed his hands from his pockets.The men laughed again.“Boys, it seems Mr. Robinhoo
