All Chapters of My Contract Marriage : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“I know it’s none of my business, but why don’t you try to think for a second?” She murmured as soon as he got into the driver’s seat and started the car engine. “Your father cares so much about you, just what the hell did he do to deserve such cold treatment from you?” “Crystal, like I said, it shouldn’t bother you.” He muttered coldly as he proceeded to the highway, maneuvering the steering wheel professionally, his voice was cold and hard like a stone; he could probably give the Statue of Liberty a run for her money. “Just do your work and keep your nose out of my business.” She sighed looking away from him, he was such a heartless bastard, she could never have such a family and treat them like that, Kayden is just too much. “If you think it would be easy to divorce me, just because you’ve obtained my father’s favor then you’re mistaken.” His voice came back breaking Crystal out of her train of thoughts. “I don’t mind taking my father to court just so you know, and you would bo

“I’m only going because I have nothing to do.” He said as he picked up his phone from the desk and got up, this was about thirty minutes after she had asked him. It was quite surprising, he wanted to go and they didn’t even argue much.A small smile reached her lips as she followed behind him slowly until they got to his car, the driver opened the door to let them inside and that was it.“I’m sure you saw the news,” He started in a bored tone and her eyes narrowed, trying desperately to suppress the blush, but it can’t be helped, as soon as he spoke about the news, she remembered some of the comments.“What news?” She pretended since she thought it would be best if they didn’t speak about it.“Don’t play dumb, it was trending, everyone was talking about it too.” He pestered and she flushed even more. “You do know it’s your fault.”“You should be thanking me,” she suddenly snapped, he always loved to shift blames, it was his fault, if he wasn’t trying to push her out of his car, she wo

Kayden closed his laptop and stretched his limbs, they were sore from sitting in one spot for too long. He glanced outside the window; he noticed it was very dark, night had descended upon them, yawning slightly he picked his phone and head outside, Crystal must be tired of waiting. Surprisingly, Crystal wasn’t the one he met by the elevator, it was Laurie, who was always an early bird. “What are you still doing here?” He asked his voice filled with concern, Laurie’s eyebrows raised, she wasn’t expecting to see him just yet.“Uhh...I...” She trailed off trying to find a reasonable excuse but was unable to find one. “What sort of work were you doing up until now?”He inquired and for a while, all Laurie did was say nothing. “Do you know it is very dangerous, for a lady such as yourself to walk alone at night?”She blinked back at him, unable to defend herself.He brings out his phone immediately. “I'll hire a taxi for you immediately.” “N-No,” she shook her hands dismissively, w

Crystal didn’t know how long she sat there but she could tell it was a lot of time, she felt sore in her arms and legs, she had been sitting for too long and she fell asleep a couple of times too. Jones McQueen had left and he didn’t tell her what he would do to her, she was just seated there in the silence. “Mrs. Smith,” She raised her head up when she heard the familiar voice. “Are you ready to discuss with me?” “I have told you that I won’t aid your nonsense.” She cracked; there was certain dryness in her voice. “I have very valid information that you have the key design to the summer festival shoes.” He said as he proceeds to the chair, he was wearing a bathrobe that revealed his chest; he sat down in all his seductive glory. “I want you to give me that, we checked in your purse and found some couple of useless flash but it wasn’t nothing related to a shoe design.” “I don’t have it.” She lied. “How will stealing someone else’s design be of any benefit to you?” He chuckled dark

Kayden and Petra were whispering something to themselves, but after a while, they just stood and glared at each other before Petra took the empty tray and walked out of the room. Crystal couldn’t comprehend what was going on but she remained quiet. Kayden’s glare then turned towards her. “You heard what Petra said?” His cold voice came unexpectedly and it almost made her jolt. “Finish everything in the damned bowl.” “Aren’t you being a little too caring today?” she asked as she raised the spoon to her mouth but only to drop it again, it was just too hard to eat, he looked at her suspiciously. “Do you want me to lick your shoes this time?” “What did McQueen what from you?’ He was quick to change the topic; he strolled back to the chair and sat down. “Why did he keep you for so long? “I would appreciate it if you saved the questions for tomorrow,” she started lifting the bowl for her lap and placed it on the small table that was next to the bed. “I’m so tired and sleepy now.” “We wi
