All Chapters of Arranged Marriage With The CEO: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

—CHRISTIAN— I saw the nervousness in her tone when I talked about her taking the bath and realised that I was nothing but a literal stranger to her right now. I saw her biting her lip while fidgeting with her fingers out of nervousness as I stared at her before sighing and walking back to me. “ Look, I know princess, you don't remember me. But I do. So please, try trusting me a little.” I took a pause to take into her expression but she was still unsure. I knew it wasn't enough. Nothing could be enough right now to convince her but I still tried. “You just get fresh, if you want , I won't even stand in the room.” I said, trying to comfort her . But she still shook her head in a no. “ No, I don't need a bath." She said, instinctively pulling the sleeve of her top as if she was in some discomfort. But I caught that small action of hers that was screaming that she sure as hell needed a long bath. I sighed audibly. “ As much as I'm willing to do anything for you, I'm sorry

Christian I sighed at her stubbornness and sat down on the bed as Jennifer almost ran inside the bathroom. As if I was going to run behind her like a creep. Not that I didn't want to, but definitely not to eye her getting undressed because there's nothing that I've not seen about her. And even though it would excite me as much as the first time, I wanted to go inside solely for her help. Because I knew that it would be difficult for her to manage with all those scratches and injuries on her body. Ah!! How I crave to see Catherine in the same condition as she caused my princess to be in. My several imaginations about the ways of killing that woman were interrupted when the door of the bathroom was ripped open, revealing my very annoyed wife. I frowned, not understanding her mood and waited for her to speak up which she did after a moment. “ Help me!” I watched her as she forced those words out of her mouth before looking up and meeting my gaze. My frow disappeared and I pressed

—JENNIFER—As soon as I opened the cupboard and shuffled through the clothes to decide one outfit for me, my hands brushed against a metallic thing and I stilled in my place. Pulling the thing out from behind the clothes my heart thumped loudly in my chest when I realised what the thing was exactly. A gun. A REAL FUCKING GUN. A sudden push felt to my breaths and heartbeats and they accelerated, as if trying to beat each other in a race.I was so stunned seeing that thing in here that I was totally feeling unable to think anything or even move a damn inch. That's when the door of the room was pushed open suddenly, pulling me out of my shock and I looked up to find Christian entering inside the room in a hurry. He froze in his place when his eyes fell on my trembling hands which were holding the gun. A panic that was visible on his face was telling me that this thing was the reason he came back running in such a hurry. “ I-..., er, Jennifer. That's..” He stuttered as if trying to

—CHRISTIAN—It was funny and concerning at the same time how wildly my wife’s brain works. I mean, Mafia?? Really? I didn't know If should laugh at her weirdness or should take her to a psychiatrist. The Mafia world isn't the only place where you have to be careful about your life. This business world is even more dangerous. In the Mafia, at least you know what could possibly happen with you, but these monsters in the nicely tailored suits are unpredictable. You never know who the snake in your sleeve is until it bites you. And personally, I can't even count on my fingertips how many enemies I have in this business world who would not think twice before shooting me at the first chance they get. That's the reason for that gun in my cupboard. But why it was there now was a different thing, I almost lost my head a few days back when I went to meet Catherine with the intention of killing her after finding out that she was planning to meet the media before she barged into Jennifer's pa

—CHRISTIAN—Closing the room behind me, I had just taken only a few steps towards the study when I remembered that I forgot my phone in the room and turned back to take it but paused when I held the handle, hearing her speaking inside. “ Excellent!! First you claim to be in love with someone and then leave them in a strange house's strange room alone.” My eyes went wide in surprise. Wasn't she the one to make me think that she was uncomfortable around me? “ I know. But, is comfort more than safety?” I heard her huff. Can she hear me now? I looked around and then back at the door in disbelief. “ How the hell would I feel comfortable when I won't feel safe? And how the hell can someone feel safe in a strange house, that too alone?” I shook my head in disbelief, hearing her words while my lips twitched up in amusement. She has always been mad, but seems like she's turning into a maniac. My maniac. Shaking my head at my stupid little wife's antics, I headed toward the study and ca
