All Chapters of Arranged Marriage With The CEO: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

—JENNIFER—Just like my usual habit, my sleep was disturbed at midnight because of my stomach rumbling. I wasn't hungry, just craving. Leaving Velvet sleeping under my blanket, I headed to the kitchen and was stunned seeing the fridge full of chocolate stuff. I hadn't gone shopping for like, the last two weeks. I was even eating the remaining things slowly so I wouldn't run out. A warm smile took over my shock because it didn't take a genius to guess who did it.Taking out a large Chocolate Ice cream tub, I headed out but stopped seeing the light of Christian's study still on. I walked towards the room and pushed open the door quietly. He was working on his laptop, so engaged that didn't even realise my presence. My jaws fell open seeing so many papers, documents , files scattered around the table and couch. Four empty coffee mugs in front of him and the fifth in his hand as he typed with his empty hand. I cleared my throat to grab his attention and he looked up.“ You are still

—CHRISTIAN—I watched the face of Mr. Jiang as he discussed with his lawyer and assistant about the presentation that I have given just a while ago. I didn't accept in front of Jennifer, but I sure as hell was stressed and nervous. For the first damned time in my life. This was really very important for our company and I've been working on it for the last two months. And now when finally we were on the main point, I couldn't help but sit there with bated breaths. They were taking so long to announce their decision and it took all my might to stop myself from growling at them for hurrying up. They all looked up and I sat straight in my chair, trying very hard to not show my desperation. “ Let's sign the deal Mr. Brown! “ Mr. Jiang finally smiled and I heaved a sigh that I didn't even realise I was holding. “ Sure, Mr. Jiang! “ I answered, reciprocating the smile and standing up to shake his hand. Leaving the paperwork on James's concern I walked Mr. Jiang to the exit as he left m

—JENNIFER—Days passed and things between Christian and me had started to be comfortable. Not that we had stopped arguing and teasing each other for small things. But finally I could see our relationship getting steady. We had finally started to trust each other, talking each other out and sharing our problems or reasons of our happiness. Finally I could say that I was happy and also see that he was happy, too. Everything was feeling new and changed. But the only thing that hasn't changed was me tripping over the flat floor and landing on my butt in his feet and him teasing my catwalk skills. “ I think I should get the railing from your room to the living area.” He said sarcastically while standing in front of me with his hands stuffed into his pockets. “ I think you should stop showing me your face this early morning.” I gritted my teeth while standing up, taking the help of the edge of his coat. “ Are you suggesting that you are falling for me, Princess?? “ His smirk widened and

—CHRISTIAN—“ Hello Mrs. Morgeto!! “ I said as soon as she picked up the call. “ Good evening Sir.” Came her amusement laced reply. “ It seems like you already know my intention of calling you.” I asked, heading out of my office.“ Not at all Sir. I can never guess that you want me to take another leave because you want to make dinner for your lovely wife with your own hands.” She said in the utmost serious tone. “ I thought so.” I matched her sarcasm before disconnecting the call and sitting in my car before hitting the road. When I reached the penthouse, It was past five in the evening and the darkness inside was telling me that Jennifer still hadn't returned. I tried to push away the disturbing thoughts and headed to my room to get washed up before coming back to the kitchen and started making the dinner. I was done in an hour and Jennifer wasn't back yet. Sensing it unusual, I pulled out my phone to call Morris but he called me himself. With a frown, I answered the call. “

—JENNIFER—My sleep got broken when the main door was opened. I tried to stretch my arms to yawn but found myself unable to do that. Opening my eyes properly, I looked around and found myself in an unfamiliar room. I looked up and Christian's face came into my view. A gasp escaped my lips seeing the position we were sleeping in. My hands around his torso and head on his one arm while his arms were wrapped around my frame, keeping me close. Don't even get me started with our tangled legs. Stifling a screech, I slowly tried to untangle myself from him but he held me even more tightly, instead. " Should we barge in?? Are you guys, like,decent?? " Alex’s voice rang outside of Christian's room and my eyes went wide in horror." What the hell do you mean by 'decent' ?? '' I didn't even realise before the words were out. " We meant if you guys are fucking right now or not?? " And just like that, my sleep jumped out of the window at Cally's words. I could hear them laughing their ass off
