Chapter 21

Catherine chuckled softly. "In your dream, Mr. Richmond, why don't you just watch the road and stop that nonsense? I am not going to buy it." Shawn smirked. "My sex appeal isn't for sale, Miss Brown. For your information." He really loves teasing her. Catherine's cheeks turned scarlet, and her cute little brow creased when she was uncomfortable. Both know how much he loves dirty talking. Did she even remember their out-of-this-world, mind-shattering sex two years ago? Though he was not shy about what he wanted and liked, she has gotten pretty good at voicing her annoyance. That’s why their boring boss-secretary relationship was so phenomenal. What made him hold onto their marriage anyway? Surely, their divorce settlement won't cost him that much. She even told him that she wanted nothing from him—not even a single dime. Maybe that's why he doesn't have the heart to stay away from her. She was one in a million. She doesn't even care about his money; she works hard to earn it. "Please

Chapter 22

Shawn thought he had never accomplished something that meant as much to him as his company, yet looking at his Las Vegas wife and thinking about her working with him in the mansion starting on Monday would either be eventful or dreadful. He got to where he could make out the form of the mountain above them and smirked. He rushed up the hillside of the window, keeping a distant view of the road and his car shadows, as a smile formed on his lips as he realised that there were tendrils of smoke curling from the distant lodge. The moonless skies were a bit brighter, with so many stars appearing and storms slowly disappearing. He poked the sleeping form of Catherine. "Miss Brown?" he demanded loudly. She rolled over and yawned. "What? Is it morning already?" "Nope!" She groaned, "Then why the hell did you wake me up?" "I'm bored," he winked, and he smirked at her before saying that it was quite possibly the most beautiful shock he had ever seen. He awakened her to have some food. He fo

Ten minutes later, by this time, they were finished eating, and he stood and cleared the table, rinsing off the dishes in the sink. Catherine stood and hobbled to the bed. She sat and looked at him, watching muscles tremble under his sweater as he hurried. She averted her eyes. Since when did he know how to wash dishes? And he was doing it right. Wow, she was that impressed. "Does it seem a little warm in here to you?" she inquired as he turned and furrowed his eyebrow. "No, actually, I am all right. But you'll be too warm with those sweats on," he answered. "Especially since the floor is warm and the heat from your swelling will warm your feet, you'll be warm. If your feet or face are hot, the rest of you will feel it. If you want, you can wear something of mine. I've got extra shirts in my pack until you cool off." She contemplated it for a second. "Well—" "It's alright." Shawn got up, pulled open his suitcase next to the couch, and fished out a large white shirt. He handed it t

Chapter 24

Catherine couldn't help but moan. She knew she was playing with fire now, and it was obvious enough to get burned by his wonderful, warm touch. She felt warm fingertips start to massage the base of her skull and warm breath on the nape of her neck. She shuddered in anticipation. She felt her nipples harden against the fabric of his soft cotton shirt and felt a gentle heat sweep through her. She wasn't confident if the heat she was feeling was all from the fire or from his breath. He kneaded her shoulders and back, avoiding the sore spot. She felt the heat of his fingers through the fabric. He toiled with her tired muscles. After what seemed like an eternity of warming her neck, he went back to massaging her shoulder. It was then that he really noticed that she was sitting against his chest and that there was a bulge in his trousers. He didn't even realise until he looked down that her hands were resting on his thighs. The throb and longing from their amazing sexual encounter two years

Chapter 25

Early in the morning, they had managed to come up with the most stupid idea of leaving the cottage. Now, they were both shivering and arguing in the car as Shawn pursed his lips, assessing their morning situation. The road had allocated ten inches of snow, and the storm had been breaking again, and right now, they were done ignoring each other. "See? What now, Miss Brown? I told you, we could stay in the cottage for maybe a few more hours, and yet, here we are? Jesus!" he grumbled between heavy breaths as she rolled her eyes at him. "So it's my fault now?" she asked. How could he blame her? It was him who started ignoring her since they woke up, and yes, they had mind-shattering sex, but the jerk started to ignore her as if she had a disease, as if nothing happened between them. Who does that? Him…the asshole! And maybe she was really out of his system now because he started being an arsehole again. Such a dick! Catherine thought to herself as she looked outside the car. "Ah, hell,”

Chapter 26

When eight o'clock came, fully dressed in jeans and a simple blouse, Catherine was now fully awake, feeling a little crappy, exhausted, and restless. She was suddenly apprehensive about seeing Shawn today. However, she planned to go to work as usual in order to try and gather information about what the company was doing amid the lockdown. Obviously, the meeting would be online, and yet, here, she was not even sure how to start her day. But what does that mean for the vigorous issues between Shawn and her, anyway? What are they? Of course they were civil to each other, but she knew it was more than that. She had no clue, and by the time she dragged herself out of bed, she heard Eddie call out her name from the door. "Miss Catherine, um, sir, Mr. Richmond is waiting." "Thank you, Eddie," she shouted back. She hastily got herself together, hand-combed her hair, threw on some makeup, tied her hair in a loose ponytail, and raced down the stairs." "More coffee, Miss?" "Yes, thanks, Ed

Chapter 27

As Catherine rose from her seat and made her way to the door, she felt Shawn’s eyes on her. A part of her wanted to believe and trust him, while another part thought he just wanted to convince her otherwise so she could keep quiet about the scandal that Elizabeth had been telling the media about him. Those scandals obviously weren't even half the truth, and their multi-billion-dollar conglomerates were not on the verge of bankruptcy amid the pandemic. And yes, she was expecting him to tell her the truth about Elizabeth's blackmailing him, not just because his grandfather wanted him to settle soon. She was just waiting for him to open up to her. Not that she was expecting too much, but anyway, she was already married to him, so why not just go with the flow until she could give him a divorce? So Catherine, stop scowling, be a dear, and suck it up, she thought to herself. Oh, and then there is the third part that wants to just kiss him... Feel the warmth of his embrace. feel him buri

Chapter 28

At ten o'clock the next morning, Catherine was awakened and ushered by Eddie to the living room, where she asked for a small breakfast. Arriving in the grand living room, Catherine Brown, soon to be Catherine Richmond, was one of those obnoxiously attractive women who turned every head when she walked into a room. She had curly, glossy blonde hair, bottomless, deep cobalt eyes, and a perfect body that showed no signs of stress as she sauntered down the stairs. If they didn’t know her, they probably hated her. Or, at the very least, die of jealousy. And not only was she remarkable, but she was about to get married to one of the richest men in London. Jane thought that some people were just born lucky. "Oh, Catherine, what the hell happened to your eyes? You look dead. Where is the makeup artist? Cover that eye-bag girl." "They are on the way. I'm too tired and hungry to wait. I could use a fucking sandwich now," she replied as she yawned and looked around. "Here, girly, take this coo

Chapter 29

At five o'clock, Catherine was pacing her room. She had her wedding dress on; Chelsea and Jane were still in the living room with their hair and make-up, repeating the episode of so many complaints. She kept on pacing, except for the veil that would go on at the last minute. She was so committed to her pacing that she didn't notice Dave come into the room. Finally, he spoke. "Sis, are you OK?" She ignored him. Of course, she wasn't okay. Her mind was nowhere near sane. She heard him say again, "Come on, sis, calm down. You're scouring a hole in the carpet. Relax, you are so tense." She sighed. “I'm just so nervous. I... I did what you asked. I took a pregnancy test, and it's positive. Oh, God. What am I supposed to do now?" She stepped as fast as she could in the restrictive dress and wrapped her arms around her brother, hugging him tightly. "I don't know what to do now… are you mad at me?" "Of course not! But did you tell him?" Dave asked and let her sit at the edge of the bed.

Chapter 30

Thirty minutes later, Shawn shook his head, trying to forget what Dave said before he went to the door. He decided to evaluate the reception at the ballroom instead. There was, at least, a bartender in the mini-bar behind the pink and white garland-covered area. He thought that the more he needed to have another drink, the more confused he got. Looking at the grandeur of the reception, he sighed and signalled a drink to the bartender. He sat at the white table and looked at the expensive flowers and sweet-scented candles. The bartender glanced up at him, then went back to his duties after giving him his drink and continuing his conversation with the man in a dark suit sitting on a stool at the minibar, drinking. Shawn saw no waitress. Everyone was busy in the reception main ballroom, but obviously someone had waited on the men in the booth, so he figured the waitress would be right back or the bartender would double and wait tables too. He looked up as someone cleared their throat n
