All Chapters of The Playboy's Woman: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Shopping was a luxury to Reyna, yet, she made sure that nothing of awe and surprise showed on her face as he led her through one of the most luxurious boutiques she had ever seen. When they had arrived at the front door, Niko had flashed a card at the receptionist before they were allowed in, they were very clear on their customers. “Do we really need to come here?” She muttered her voice barely above a whisper and yet, Niko heard as he turned to look at her an interesting smile hung on his lips. “You don’t like luxury?” He asked stepping back slightly so he could be exactly beside her. As an after thought, he pulled her closer to him by the waist and rested her hands there. All of these actions would help make their relationship more believable. Reyna on the other hand had not been ready for the intimacy and her body took seconds before the stiffening stopped. “Are you sure you don’t want this.” He asked, with how close they were, she was the only one that could hear what he sai

24On the ride to the cinema, Niko noticed how distant and aloof Reyna was but he made no attempt to point it out. Not only was he also uncomfortable about opening up such part of his past, he also wanted her to understand the boundaries despite how much they would try to live together. “Since girls like romance movies, I picked the recent one that has been making the box office smile.” Niko said as they walked to the cash point. Since they just had dinner, Reyna ordered a small box of popcorn just for the motion. She had never been to a cinema after reading about it for so long, she didn’t want to get the experience without her box of popcorn. Niko on the other hand opted for only water as the two them entered the cinema. It was dark inside and Niko reached for her hand as they walked up the steps and guided them to the back. They had entered just in time for the movie. The movie lasted a total of an hour and forty five minutes and while Reyna didn’t really enjoy the story line,

The more he read, the more Niko felt like he had to be reading a story. How could anyone’s life be this tragic.“Are you sure you have all the data right?” He asked Joe who had just turned the car in the direction of their estate.“I did a lot of cross checking and also asked her father’s personal men. It’s no hidden secret in fact.” Niko suddenly felt like he had been too cold to her. She had been experiencing this? Perhaps that was why she had felt completely empathetic back when they had gone on a date and he had just done the worst by treating her like this.He had personally not had a smooth life but he had his grandfather who had always made his father hesitate in being too extreme with him. His grandfather had also helped him even without him knowing and had only come to know when they were actually older. He went back to look at the pictures again and sighed. Even when she was going through the hardest times, she had looked even more attractive than a regular person. He coul

“Why the hell did you go out like that!” Niko asked as they entered the house.Reyna stared back at him, her lips trembling at the sight of his widened eyes. She didn’t want to have anything to do with him, she didn’t even want to pass her boundary. She just wanted to go in and sleep and go to school again.“Can’t you reply to me!” He bellowed again at her.He was frustrated and damn angry. Why would she go out like that without saying anything or without even bothering to carry a car. He could see the fear laced in her eyes, and even though he didn’t want to shout at her, he couldn’t help himself. What would happen if his grandmother saw her outside and when the time comes to show her to them, she’ll know she’s just a cab girl?“If we’re going to make this work, you have to abide by all the things I have, and use them like it’s yours. My family is a very suspicious one, one wrong move and they’ll tell you out! I don’t care what kind of reputation you’re trying to keep but know this,

Chapter 30“Are you fine?” She asked with her brows furrowed.Niko raised his brows as his lips slightly parted with his eyes strained on her.“What do you mean, am I fine? I need to eat, just give me the cereal, and all this can be done!” He said sharply.“I don’t think you have that right to shout at me.” Reyna retorted.“Did I shout at you?” Niko asked with widened eyes.“That’s what you just did.” Reyna yelled.“You’re the one yelling, I did not yell, all I did was say give me cereal and here you are, shouting at me!” Niko yelled again.“Then what you did now is called what? Talking?” Reyna asked as she stared directly at him with her chest rising and falling.The both of them had no idea how it had escalated to this but Niko found his body itchy to even her stare and Reyna could not even stand him anymore. Who the hell does he think he is that he can just command her? And who the hell does she think she is that she can just shout at him? They glared hard at each other before Reyn
