One Week Later Amanda's POV I woke up feeling hollow and bruised in ways I couldn't explain. Everything felt agonizing, even down to the way Quinn had barely looked at me since that day; the regret was practically written across his face. What kind of jerk sleeps with a woman and calls it a mistake the next day? I knew we weren't fond of each other, but that was too much, even for me. The night of our honeymoon might have changed something between us or maybe given us some bridge over the chasm we kept finding ourselves in, but I was wrong. I was completely wrong. It seemed as if things were worse than when we first met. Before, Quinn could look at me, even if he had something mean to say. The last few days, he hadn't taken a glance at me or said a word to me. I was being avoided like a plague. Apparently, it meant nothing to him. He made that clear, or maybe I was the fool for hoping anything between us could be real. It wasn't just Quinn, though. That day was Logan's day, in

Amanda's POV It was safe to say that Logan did not bug me anymore for the rest of the day. I didn't even set eyes on him until the official exchanging of rings between him and Candace. After the incident in the bathroom, Vanessa and I headed back to the party. It was still packed with guests, and I honestly just wanted to head up to my room and sleep. "I don't even know why the fuck I'm here," Vanessa hissed under her breath as we sat side by side. The official ceremony was yet to begin, so we were just lounging around till it was time to head to the banquet hall. "For emotional support. For me," I said pointedly. "Thank God you're here. Otherwise I wouldn't know what to do with myself. I would probably die of boredom or something." She smiled. "Well, I'm always here for you. You know that." Suddenly, her smile faltered. "But, wait a minute, you're good right? You're okay? You're not feeling tired or sick or anything of that sort?" She still hadn't gotten past my health scare

Chapter 103Amanda's POVThe first question that came to my mind was why Mrs Rosalina was walking towards me. I didn't want any trouble with anyone. I still didn't know what happened after Quinn left the hospital that day, and I had not even bothered asking. But I noticed that Mrs Rosalina had become even meaner for some reason. I did not miss the glares she threw my way, and the way she rolled her eyes whenever I began to speak or tried to make a point. I mean, she never liked me. But now it was just worse. For a second I contemplated walking away in the other direction just to avoid her. But it was already too late since she had her eyes fixed on me. I definitely was no coward, so I stood there and pretended not to notice. She finally reached where I was standing and I felt her eyes flit up and down as she observed me. "The event is about to start," she said. "Do you need an invitation? Don't you know you're supposed to be seated by now?"I looked around. "Everyone is still loiter

Amanda's POVMy blood was boiling as I sat on the table, listening to the ladies talking about me. Hearing rumors about myself was not a new thing, but these ones were so annoying that I nearly flipped. Angrily, I picked up a glass of champagne and tilted it to my lips, drinking from it and downing it all in one gulp. I can't believe this. Me, pregnant?! Where the hell did they hear something like that? The disrespect was so much that I considered standing up and leaving this damn event. It's not like I even wanted to be here in the first place, I was obliged to attend as the wife of the oldest son. But even that had gone to waste now because I wasn't even sitting with Quinn. I kept my back straight and tried to keep a straight face. The last thing I wanted those women to think was that their words were getting to me. I didn't give a fuck what they thought or said about me, and I would ensure they knew that. I was so angry that I could almost feel the fumes rising from my ears. "I

Quinn's POVAmanda's hands felt soft and smooth in mine, so delicate that I almost never wanted to let go. I had almost forgotten how much I missed having her hand in mine. It had only been a few days but for some reason it felt like forever. I longed to pull her close and kiss her, soft and passionately to make up for all the days I had been unable to hold her. When she emerged from the closet this morning clad in that beautiful dress that did wonders for her figure, I'd almost lost it. I couldn't get over how gorgeous she looked. I'd wanted to scoop her up in my arms and kiss her then, but I restrained myself from doing so. Instead I walked out of the room and waited for her in the car instead. Cursing under my breath and waiting in the car till she got there was not an easy task. I thought that was the last of it, the last of the torture I thought I would have to endure. But then we got to the venue. Amanda looked so beautiful, a vision in the midst of everyone present. All the ma

Amanda's POVI was still dumbfounded as I stood in front of the door, staring back at Candace. I couldn't believe that she had hit the nail on the head when she asked me if I'd been crying. Although I had wiped my face and my eyes and everything, I was sure my eyes still looked a bit red and puffy. That's what would have given me away. I still didn't know what to say to her. She was looking at me with her lips curved into a sneering smirk. God, this was terrible. I couldn't even wipe my eyes right now to remove any last bits of the tear stains that might be on my face because that would only assert her suspicion further. Candace was the very last person I wanted to see me crying my eyes out, in such a vulnerable state. It was worse because she would keep commenting on it if it turned out to be true. I wouldn't live it down and all she would do was mock me repeatedly until she had enough. I didn't have the energy to deal with all that, so I forced my face into an indifferent expressio

Quinn’s POV “Are you kidding?” I scowled and peered into her eyes, “there’s a family event going and you want to what? Leave right in the middle of it?”She broke our gaze and stuffed more clothes into her duffle bag. “I’ll have you know, Quinn, that I don’t care!” “I see, and you want to take with you that bag so that everyone will know that our marriage is fake? You might as well announce it in the media.” My voice took a colder edge than I expected.“Quinn!” She yelled and whipped her head to face me. Her eyes were defiant and she held the duffel bag loosely in one hand.“This contract….us..” she gestured between the both of us. “Is all I have thought about. I know about the contract, as a matter of fact I can’t forget about it but there is no fucking where in the contract where it is stated that I couldn’t have a damn break from it!”I held her form in silence.“I need some fresh air, a break from the contract!” She brushed her hair back and blew out raspberries. “Everything abo

Amanda's POVThe moment Miranda walked into the room, a strange feeling hung in the air. It wasn’t just her striking beauty. It was everything about her. The ideal woman. Miranda was tall, poised, with a confidence that made her hard to ignore. She seemed like the type of woman that heads turned for whenever she walked into a room.I could see it in the way Quinn's entire demeanor shifted when she walked in. He wasn’t cold or indifferent, like he usually was with people he didn’t care about. He was... affected. They had a serious history, and I want to find out what is. What is special about this woman? What was special about their connection that even Quinn seems affected.I was filled with so much envy. I started feeling less than. Her sharp gaze scanned the room, landing briefly on me, before drifting back to him. “Quinn,” she said with a small, almost teasing smile. “Still just as charming as ever. How have you been all these years? I’m sure you’ve missed me, hmm?” She winks and n

Quinn's POVI was so shocked that I couldn't believe what was happening right now. If anyone told me I would ever see Miranda again, I would have called them a liar. Seeing her walk through the doors sent a jolt of shock through my entire being. It was the last thing I ever expected, and she was the last person I ever expected to see. It felt like seeing a ghost, like watching an old part of your life just come back in so suddenly. For a second I couldn't do anything other than just stare at her in shock. I was startled, unsettled, surprised, a bit pleased….as a matter of fact I was feeling so many emotions at a time that I couldn't put my finger on it. I tried to remember the last time I ever saw Miranda and it seemed like such a long time ago. When she'd begun to talk, I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to understand what this was about. So I grabbed her arm and led her out of the room, dragging her down to another part of the house where we could be alone. And now as we stood

Amanda's POVMy mind reeled back to the girl. Miranda. That was her name, he called her when she arrived. The pure look of astonishment and pleasant surprise was an image that was hard to put out. And not to talk the way he pulled out of the meeting.My gaze drifted back to my duffel bag by the door and I remembered my pre-plan of getting away. That didn’t seem to bother Quinn anymore. He had been so intent on stopping me before but as soon as this girl arrived, he seemed to have forgotten all about it. I waited for long before I shot up from the chair where I sat, staring at the door. Half expecting to open to a pair of green eyes and stoic face.The thought irked me and a temporal shudder ran down my spine. My duffel bag was still where I kept it. Quinn didn’t come back after a while and I couldn’t help but ponder if the contract still mattered to him now that his ex was back.His supposedly hot ex that he couldn’t be with was back. Now that his father was dead, would he go after he
