All Chapters of Tamed To Love (A Ninety Days Contract): Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Caryn wasn't the only one who flared up when she saw the news, Avery and Camille did too. Camille couldn't believe he had actually settled for less and Avery? Avery never imagined their relationship would go beyond the contract relationship thingy. “ That's my baby over there. She's making us proud. Mom, do you know what this means? We are rich for life!!!” Carolina was jubilating. They were in the sitting room when they saw the news. Grandma and Grandpa were the most excited about it. Tears ran down their eyes as they watched Ava's reaction when he said “ my wife to be.” “ At least, a child of mine is making me proud. That's my daughter, not Alex's daughter.” Lina rolled her eyes at Avery who was at a corner sulking. She showed disapproval openly, she no longer hid how much she resented her sister and Ava stayed away from her, right from the day were she called her “ Nathan's contracted girlfriend.” “ Mark my word Lina, they won't last. Not when you

“ Uhm, Dean? Open up, I need some help.” Nathan knocked at Dean's door. “ What's up? Is anything wrong?” the door was ajar and Nathan stepped in quickly. He was looking grim and needed a few tips on what to do. “ Okay, Ava's family wants us at their house for dinner.” “ Us?” “ I and Ava, I didn't want to let them down on this first dinner so, I accepted and right now? I'm super nervous about how to behave and what to say.” “ Just be yourself, Nathan. They just want to see the real you. Be the person you are when around Ava. Be that kind of person and you will have the key to their hearts.” “ Should I take flowers along? What should I wear? Suits?” “ Yes, get some flowers and some chocolates. Also get wine and you are all set. Suit? It's a dinner for God's sake. An informal dinner not one of your business meetings.” “ Alright then. I will do as you say..” “ And one more thing, Nathan. You will do well, just don't show y

“ Ava, you overreacted out there.” Nathan whispered the moment he hopped in. He knew he would recieve some kind of tongue-lashing if she's in a bad mood already. He could see the clouds darken on her face and they threatened to rain as they became darker and if there was anything like that, angry clouds. “ No, I didn't. I feared this would happen since the moment I received a phone call. That was why I hesitated a bit. Avery ruins anything good. Now I'm fully convinced that the jezebel in there isn't my sister.” “ You don't have to talk that way, Ava. Just breathe. Breathe Ava and get those stuffs off your mind.” She did exactly as told but that was the end of the conversation. She never muttered a word throughout the rest of the ride and he respected the fact that she wanted to be alone and quiet. It was 7:30pm but she had no idea what was coming. Nathan knew this would happen. He had foreseen it but he wanted to be present just for her sake and

“ I-I..” She inhaled and exhaled. With eyes closed and everyone shut out with just her thoughts left, she agreed she had always wanted this. She convinced herself that she was making the right decision for not just her but her family also. Flashbacks of every incident that had happened ever since they became a couple replayed in her head and as the night grew darker and the little whispers from everyone present who were beginning to feel she would reject Nathan, became louder, she relaxed and took a few drags of fresh air as her lips quivered and her eyes opened and standing right there, with her gaze fixed on the man she never expected would love her in return, she muttered but it was so loud for everyone to hear. “ YES. I will marry you, Nathan.” The loud shouts of joy and glee filled the hotel rooftop as loud shutters where heard as the journalists did what they do best. They captured this fascinating, once in a lifetime moment as Nathan Lewis slipped a ring on Ava'

It was just like any other night. Except for the fact that it wasn't. CEO Nathan Lewis had proposed to her on August 11th, 2023. It was one of the happy moments in her life, one that she cherished and would always remember with a broad smile. This was the start of a new beginning, a completely different phase. A brand new life with the man of her dreams. “ I never believed he would actually do this. I never saw it coming. Who would have thought? I'm engaged to the same man who I thought would never love me in return.” She had grandma to thank for all these. If she hadn't listened to her, she would probably still be at old Mrs. Cooper's grocery store and would retire to her happy yet sad family and definitely get frustrated when she go through the bills they were meant to pay. Asides the day she meant Nathan, the day he confessed about being in love and also the day he announced her as his girlfriend on TV, today was one of her happiest days on earth.
