All Chapters of My Death Contract: Chapter 191 - Chapter 200

Brayden had spent the better part of the week working from home. He had been in a strict routine of his morning run and workout, shower, he generally skipped breakfast and went into his home office where he worked from home for hours on end without much of a break. Estrella was able to get him to eat something for lunch, but even then he generally only finished half his meal no matter what she gave him. Valkyrie had apologized profusely when she found out what she had done. But Brayden didn't blame Valkyrie. She definitely shouldn't have been answering his door half dressed but he knew that she wasn't trying to cause any harm out of it. She was simply answering the door. How was she to know who would be on the other end of the door. Brayden blamed himself. He didn't see why he should be able to have her. He had set the tone of their miscommunication to begin with. He couldn't blame Meredith for not listening anymore than he could blame himself for not

Brayden would have normally felt some sort of achievement if his father had visited him for any other circumstance. His father was so busy with work for him to have time to come visit his sons was a rarity. Brayden knew his father cared about him. The CEO stipulations spelled out the idea that his father cared about the three Davids. But Brayden’s father wasn’t usually so forthcoming with his feelings. Brayden found it odd that his father not only came to visit but also his primary focus was how he felt about Brayden and he even spoke about how he had felt after the death of his wife. Brayden had made the comparison but in reality Meredith wasn’t dead. She was just out of his life and he made that decision ultimately when he set her free. If she never came back he would be okay with that as long as she was happy. 

Meredith had on the new strappy black leather Louboutin heeled sandals. She was wearing a classic Burberry trench that fell to her knees and she grabbed the new Alexander McQueen clutch. It was red and black with ring embellishments on the top and a crystal encrusted gold plated embellishment on the sides.Her hair was up in an intricate bun and she had light makeup giving her a glowing look with red cherry red stain on her lips. She grabbed her keys and shoved them in her pocket then checked her other pocket for her phone. She turned to Dino who was in the kitchen eating some tuna she had given him as his Easter dinner. She inhaled a deep breath then slowly let it out.“Wish me luck,” she told Dino, who didn’t bother to look up at her until she turned around. He didn’t want her to know

Brayden was shocked to hear that Clinton knew that Meredith called him the elevator god. He wanted to know how Clinton had come to that knowledge. He wanted to know what else Clinton knew.Meanwhile Meredith had pulled away from Brayden and was snapping up her coat. Brayden looked at Meredith who was to the side of him and possibly only in reach because of how small the elevator was.Then he looked back at Clinton, who was facing forward. Brayden stared at Clinton’s back, trying to think hard if Meredith ever mentioned it at any family function. The only time that he could think of was the family dinner she went to.Brayden had been talking to his father and Edward was giving her a tour. It was possible that she could have mentioned it then. Brayden was out of ear shot but he had seen Edward take Meredith upst

Meredith woke up the next day very proud of her results to brush Christian and his advances aside. She was so distracted with the game of convincing her boss that she was not only uninterested, but also unavailable, that she didn't notice the pain deep in the pit of her stomach.Meredith ate her banana and felt a piercing pain in her heart. She assumed it was heartburn from the banana. She gave the banana a weird look, looked at Dino and tossed it in the trash before heading out the door.She walked to work wondering how long heartburn would last because the pain wasn't going away. She decided to ignore it and walked into work and took the elevator up. She was much earlier than normal and thankfully her boss, also known as Christian, was not there yet.Meredith said good morning to Indigo and walked into her office with a smile. She loaded up her computer after getting settled in and got to work on her team's new project. She had sent Rosy and Dave out the day b
