Book Two The CEO series - His Bargain

CHAPTER ONE         I was born in a small city in Connecticut and currently resided in New York. I sipped champagne from the flute glass and stared at the letter. It was written by my elder sister, Ansley Lewis. She was no more.       It was unbelievable. That she had a daughter. I didn't know anything about it until reading this letter.       She gave birth to a daughter. Mom told me that she met with an accident, but she didn't tell me about her daughter. Why? My heart was aching.        Five years ago, I got into a fight with her. She was dating my boyfriend. She said they were going to tell me. I knew. She wasn't lying.        I rubbed my hand on my cheek. I didn't wanna go there. She wrote this letter to me before her death. She had apologized to me. She had also mentione

CHAPTER TWO

              My eyes were closed but my mind couldn't stop thinking about her for a second and the most strange thing, I couldn't stop thinking about him, too. I slowly opened my eyes. I was still sleeping on the couch.        My chest heaved as I let out a breath. My body felt stiff. I rubbed my hand over my neck. It was six. It was my first day in the office. I was going to see him, Chris Rayden. I was hoping to see my niece too. Which was impossible.        I sauntered into the kitchen and made myself a coffee. I finished it in a hurry. I didn't wanna get late. Logically, a good impression could put me on his trusted people's list. I would be able to see her.        I stared at them. Kallie was saying ' right '. She was looking so happy with her father. A rush of warmth flooded through my body. I shut it immediately. He was my niece's

CHAPTER THREE

            I smoothed my hand on my pencil blue skirt. I was hoping to see her today. If not naturally, I made it happen. I was confident to see her today. But it was vague possibly as she was a kid. Why would he bring his daughter to his office?        With a smile on my face, I grabbed my things and headed toward the door.        Stepping out, I locked the door of our home and headed toward the stairs. My heels were making noises against the floor. There was no one in view. I could see only people in their running pants.       I held out my key and unlocked my car. I sat behind the wheels and put my bag and files on the passenger seat. I put on the seat belt.       ' I'm sorry, Ansley. I should be the one to apologize. I should understand that you both were in love. I shouldn't stop talking to you. But I promise Chels

CHAPTER FOUR

              The phone went off. It rang again. I answered it and held my breath. Before I could utter a word. His voice boomed through the speaker, "In my office, Miss Lewis," The line went dead immediately.       I let out a deep sigh and left the desk. The closer I live the more chances I would get to see Chelsea.       "Leave the door open," He said as I pushed the door open.       I did as he told me. Leaving the door open, I walked into his office.       "Sir, " I said.       He didn't look up at me and kept typing, "Sit down," He said between typing.       I looked at him to finish his typing. My lunch break was approaching. I was hungry. I avoided eating in the morning. Kallie cooked amazing food yesterday. My coffee helped me to survive till my lunch br

CHAPTER FIVE

              I pulled over the car in the parking lot. Grabbing my clutch, I hurried toward the entrance.        I winced at the sight of him. I quickened my steps as I reached the hospital. I hardly talked to my mother. We were in a hate and love relationship after Ansley's death. I had one more reason to ignore her that she hid about my niece.        "What are you doing here, Chris?" I stopped beside him as he was talking to the doctor. He wasn't my boss right now. I was off duty.        He raised his eyebrows. I should be the one acting like this.        'What was he doing here? How does he know my mother?'       My heart began to race. Did he know my mother through Ansley? S***! He must have known I was her sister.        The doctor

CHAPTER SIX

               I cursed under my breath as I stared at the plain platinum band. She was wearing the ring, though I wasn't the one to put it in her ring finger. But after signing the fu***** marriage paper. She was my wife.        I raked my fingers through my thick hair. She had forgiven me. But my mother couldn't forgive me. It had been f****ng five years. F***! I couldn't forgive myself.        Whenever I beheld my reflection in the mirror. I saw a beast. She was comfortable around me. I stopped drinking. I never touched it after that ominous noon.        I walked out of the hospital. I would have allowed this surgery. If she had refused to marry me. I had my reasons behind it. She didn't need to know it. It wasn't her business.        Mack, my driver opened the door of the car at my sight, "Get in the b

CHAPTER SEVEN

        Space! I needed space. Continue thinking about mom's condition, the thought of her going through her illness at this time when I was busy with my bitching behaviour and so stubborn not to talk to them. Because she could see that which I couldn't. She was enduring all this alone. I wasn't a good daughter. I should take care of her after Ansley's death. I was her only family. I didn't know. How did Chris know all this? He promised Ansley to take care of her, which I couldn't do. I should be the one doing this, not him.        I tucked the strands behind my ear. I didn't glance at the clock as it didn't seem to move.       I glanced at my watch reluctantly. Two minutes must have passed, barely. From the last time, I checked it.        The nurses were coming and going in and out of the rooms. My back was hurting and my eyes were getting heavy. This was the moment whe

CHAPTER EIGHT

            I stared at the roof until I drifted off to a sound sleep. Kallie was so excited that she didn't sleep until I got back home. He dropped me home. He didn't say a word. His attention was on two things. His phone and food. He acted as I wasn't even around him. I couldn't understand. Why did he plan it?       I parked my car in the parking lot of the hospital. I pulled the hood so no one could see my face. Girls were already glaring at me with hatred.       I hurried into the elevator. When I woke up in the morning I was on the news channel. It was breaking news.       'IS Billionaire's brother got married?' With this headline, their camera zoomed on his hand on my waist and then on the ring. They didn't stop there. They showed Alyssum and Agat pictures while they were shopping. They related it to our secret wedding.

CHAPTER NINE

PART - TWO              I glanced at happy, smiling faces. The wedding was simple but royal one. I couldn't make such arrangements for my wedding. I got married. It didn't seem fair that my sister's one night stand partner was my husband now.      My gaze was on Chelsea. My mother and my mother in law…… They were looking at kids and laughing over something. A nurse was sitting on the chair behind my mother.      Alyssum's sons, Aidan and Dairo were playing in the background with Renee. She was Victoria and Harris' daughter. Chelsea and Renee were holding a small girl's hand. I didn't know her name but she was Alyssum's best friend's daughter, Becca and Nathan. There were only a few people, almost family. All were rich and businessmen.        Chris squeezed my hand. I swivelled and looked at him. His gaze was gi

CHAPTER TEN

            An icy chill ran down my spine. The thought of my mother laying on the bed terrified me. I needed to concentrate on Chelsea. I should tell her that Alyssum wasn't her mother then it could be. I could persuade her to come with me. I should invite Alyssum for Lunch with her kids.        I grabbed my phone and called on her number.        "Hello, " I recognized her sweet voice.       "Hi, Chelsea! I'm your Zara Aunt."        "I'm Elsa," She giggled.       "How are you?" I started the conversation with a simple question. I heard another voice. She wasn't alone. I didn't have any experience with kids. I was trying my best. I waited for her to reply.        "Mom, it's Zara aunt." Then it went silent.        "Are you ok?" I furrowe
