Chapter Thirty one

Eliana Brown~•~“Can you teach me how to drive?”Catherine burst out laughing at my random question but I couldn’t even be bothered because a week after taking lessons from a tutor at a driving school, the only things I knew were the names of the car parts.“Stop laughing.” I gritted my teeth. “Are you teaching me or not?”“Didn’t your husband offer to teach you?” She asked while she was still laughing. I wasn’t used to people calling William my husband so it always caught me by surprise. “You declined such a good offer yet you’re here asking me to teach you again.”“Is that the point?”“It is, of course.” Her laughing fit died down slowly. “You had the opportunity to get closer to this man and you threw it away because of your shyness.”“Opportunity?” My cheeks flushed red. “I don’t want to be closer to him. Why would I want to be close to him?”“I don’t know, Eliana.” Her tone dripped with sarcasm. “Maybe because you liked him?”Instinctively, I looked around to make sure no one co

Chapter Thirty two

William Caddel~•~Eliana was back home early and it was weird because I was expecting her to come back sometime later, which was why I didn’t refuse Duke and George’s visit. Since the only two other people who had access to my house were already present, it meant she was the one using the private elevator at that moment.Her lesson was supposed to last for a few hours but she was already back so soon. Did something happen? Or did her instructor cancel on her?As soon as Camilla noticed that someone was coming up, she ran to the elevator to find out who it was. She was a nosy little thing that couldn’t be stopped. Lately, the seven-year-old had gotten more curious than ever.One minute later, both Eliana and Camilla came into the living room. Eliana’s eyes immediately sought me. Her gaze strayed to Duke and George who were in the kitchen. “Hi.” They both greeted in unison.However, she didn’t respond to them and returned her gaze to me. She looked down at Camilla, then at me. “You ha

Chapter Thirty three

Eliana Brown~•~William had to get a manual car to teach me how to drive. According to him, the car he wanted to lend to me was automatic but he wanted me to be able to get myself out of sticky situations if need be.He was the teacher so I had no choice but to listen to him.William, who was always busy, suddenly had time to teach me how to drive four times a week; Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. It meant we were spending more time together than usual and Catherine was right, it gave me a chance to be closer to him.As expected, William was a lot more patient than my quick-to-anger driving instructor. The best part about it was that I didn’t have to pay for the lessons. Maybe I was taking advantage of William but if he didn’t complain, who was I to point it out?Being married to William was lowkey fun. He acted like a husband when we were alone and when we were outside, we had to act like we didn’t know each other. It was almost like we were secret lovers. We were just

Chapter Thirty four

William Caddel~•~I stared at my wristwatch, checking the time to see that Eliana must have been done with work by now.I had been at this meeting for more than an hour now and it wasn’t going anywhere. Eliana and I had driving lessons later today and I couldn’t stay any longer to hear him blab about nonsense.He saw me looking at my wristwatch and tutted. “You must be busy.”“I am,” I affirmed. “Which means I do not have the time to go back and forth with you. Eight million is my final price. Are you taking it or not?”Panic overtook his features. “What? Eight million?” Garrett spluttered. “You agreed on eight point seven a few weeks ago.”“And that offer has expired.” He was being silly. Any time I agreed on a price, he increased it. He was wasting my time on purpose and he knew damn well he wouldn’t get away with doing stupid shit like that. Then again he had someone backing him up; someone I was going to deal with as well. “Eight million dollars. Take it or leave it.”He scratche

Chapter Thirty five

William Caddel~•~By the time I reached my penthouse, there was another article circling around. It was another article of me and Sandra but this time the picture was of her poking her head in my vehicle. The angle made it seem like we were kissing while Duke stood by the side of the door, looking ahead.In the article, the writer was convinced that something was going on between us again. It was obvious this writer was different from the previous one and I could just tell it was one of Sandra’s cheap tricks to make people think we were back together. She thought I would succumb to the pressure and get with her again. She was delusional.It worked the last time because of my grandfather and there was also the fact that I didn’t like anyone back then. It was different this time. I was married. Even if the wedding was on false pretenses, I was married to the woman I wanted.“I wonder how your wife will react to this news.” Duke commented when he pulled over in the parking lot of my ap

Chapter Thirty six

Eliana Brown~•~I felt embarrassed. I had blown up on William even if he didn’t do anything to me.Sure he dated her in the past but that had nothing to do with me. He didn’t even know me then. There was also the fact that she could have hidden her true self from him. I had no right to yell at him like he did something wrong.He was an adult man who could date whoever he wanted with me interfering. I had told him I was angry but was I really? Sure I hated that woman but was that the reason I got irritated?Whatever the reason was, I couldn’t face him the next morning so I woke up as early as I could, got dressed, skipped breakfast, and went to work. It was the earliest I had been to work and there were only five people already present. The office was empty, almost like it was closing time.When Mr. Edward came in for the day, he was quite surprised to see me. He paused by my desk. “Bianca took the day off so I need you to visit the city hospital on her behalf.”“Alone?”“You’ll go wi

Chapter Thirty seven

Eliana Brown~•~I was starting to get pissed off.At the lunch I attended, I was barely able to focus because I couldn't stop peering at William’s table. That day, a new article about him came out. In the article, they were contemplating if he was with Sandra or Olivia because their date seemed intimate. I wondered what that was going to do for their friendship but it merely annoyed me.I had told myself I had been angry the other day, but this time, I couldn’t deny that I was jealous. I hated seeing him intimate with other women. The thought that he might kiss him, fuck them…As if the second article wasn’t enough, he left the house on Saturday and I stayed at home just to see the third article of the week. This time, there were rumors about him and an Italian model. They had a supposed date earlier in the day, then they attended an event together.The writer was calling him a playboy. They thought he was playing the field, looking for someone to settle down with, but I was just pla

Chapter Thirty eight

Eliana Brown~•~My breath hitched. “W-what?” Who said anything about fucking him? Was he doing it on purpose to fluster me or did he mean that question?He placed his thumb on my bottom lip, pulling it slightly. My mouth parted as I stared at him. “What are you so mad at, hmm? Are you worried about what grandfather will think or are you worried I’ll actually end up dating one of those women?”“I–““The truth only.” He interrupted me before I could cook up a lie. I had been lying so much in the past few days because of William. What was so bad in telling the truth just once? “What if I am?”“That’s not a clear answer. Are you worried or not?”There was no harm in admitting it, right? “I am.”“Good girl.” He let go of my bottom lip. “Now tell me why you’re worried.”What did he mean by that? Did he want me to admit that I liked him? Did he like me back? Or did he want to reject me gently? Unable to say the words, I shook my head.He arched an eyebrow. “Tell me, Eliana.” He prompted. “

Chapter Thirty nine

William Caddel~•~I woke up the next morning with Eliana on top of me. She was naked and I was insanely aware of her breasts pressing against my chest but I couldn’t do anything about it.I didn’t want her to wake up anytime soon because I knew damn well she was going to revert to being shy after all we did last night. I wasn’t content yet but it was enough for the meantime.I wasn’t sure if she knew it but the position she was in at the moment was her basically declaring she was mine. I’d wanted her for so long that I could barely remember what it was like to not be obsessed with her. It was crazy. I was crazy.Opposite to what I wanted, I felt Eliana start to stir. She made a sound in her sleep, hugging me tighter as if we weren’t close enough already. It made me smile. Maybe she wanted me just as much as I wanted her. Yesterday proved that she liked me and she wanted me.I had done it on purpose; the date with Olivia and the date with that model. I knew the media was going to expo

Chapter Forty

Eliana Brown~•~I was currently sitting on Will’s lap. It was surreal.I’d felt so awkward when I had woken up in the morning to find that I was lying on top of him naked. I had thrown myself at him last night so I felt embarrassed as fuck. Thankfully, he didn’t make things worse and instead assured me that he wanted me.I’d been so angry at him these past few days that I didn’t think our weekend would end like this. Will was clingy as fuck. The only time he let me go was to go and have a bath and even then, he wanted to join me. As soon as I finished getting dressed, he carried me downstairs, not letting my feet touch the ground, and brought me to the kitchen where he made breakfast like a regular husband.Sometimes I had to remind myself that he was my husband but at the moment, it felt real. It felt like we got married for love and not for a silly reason that I didn’t wish to repeat.“So are we going to continue our lessons today or what?” William asked while we were eating breakf
