A Contract Marriage And A Baby Chapter 40
FortyNathanThere was a loud pounding somewhere in my head. It was fierce and seemed to amplify every second. I groaned, raising my hand to clutch it as I opened my eyes. My vision was quite blurry as I tried to take in where I was and for a while, everything spun in circles. I groaned again, closing my eyes. Someone was laying on my chest. Despite the crazy headache that threatened to pound my brain to mush, a small smile wormed its way to my lips. "Ch..." There was a lump in my throat that made it quite hard to talk. Damn! Just how much did I drink yesterday? This was why I shouldn't hang out with Noah. He was a bad influence when it came to chugging down alcohol. I took a deep breath instead, reaching for Chloe's soft hair. I couldn't open my eyes yet anyways, since everything was still spinning like crazy. But I could hold on to her. "Chloe," I managed to grunt. What happened yesterday? She had been mad at me since the fiasco at the office, so I had thought naturally, that I

Forty-One Chloe"Chloe, table nineteen needs a refill!" Boss Liu's voice rang through the kitchen as he stepped in. He was a rather huge Asian man, spanning over six feet with enough muscles to make Bruce Lee jealous. His eyes were forever slanty, given the impression that he was about the pummel the shit out of you. However, as menacing as he looked, he was the biggest softie I had ever meant. "Sure thang Liu," I said in a faux southern accent. He dislike the Southern drawl and because I was...me, I enjoyed teasing him with it. It was so fucking adorable, seeing his face scrunch up every time he heard the accent. "Chloe," he whispered. Well, he meant to whisper. It sounded more like he was shouting but in a lower tone. "I told you. It's Boss Liu. Everybody," he gestured at the cooks and waiters in the large kitchen. "Says Boss Liu," "Ohh, you want me to call you Boss Liu?" I asked and he nodded quite adorably. I tapped my cheek, pretending to think about it, and said, "No," Laug

Forty-TwoChloe"Mama!" Adele shrieked the minute I stepped into her preschool class. She rose to her feet, toddling towards me as fast as her legs could carry. "Mama!" "Della! Della!" I mimicked, running towards her as well. I picked her up when she reached me and hugged her tightly. Her teacher laughed at the sight and shook her head. "Y'all are too dramatic. You saw each other this morning for Christ's sake." "Mama, I draw bear!" Adele said, pulling away from the hug so she could smile at me. My heart clenched every time she did that. Every time she smiled, she looked a lot like her father. Her hair was blonde. The only similarity she shared with me. The rest of her face was all Nathan's. His dark brown eyes, his pointed nose, and his plump lips. She had his face pasted on and while it had taken a while.to get used to, it still hurt whenever she smiled.Which was every fucking time. Adele's social skills were a hundred times better than mine. And that was saying a lot. She was

Forty-threeNathan"Will that be all gentlemen?" I asked, my face hurting from the fake smile pasted on my face. I would be out of that door as soon as they nodded their heads at me. The meeting had taken longer than expected. Heck, what I had expected was something short, simple, and not a waste of time. Instead, two nincompoops had spent an hour arguing baselessly over what model should be used as the face of the agency.Of all the fucking things in the world! Models! It had taken me threatening to boot their ass out of my company for them to quit yammering over how hot their recommendations were and shut the fuck up. "I believe that will all," one of the directors spoke rising to his feet. He looked tired of the shenanigans that had played out before us all. "Great! Have a nice day gentlemen," I greeted. Gentlemen my ass. I was barely out the door when they resumed arguing. Old fucking men without an ounce of self-respect, arguing over how large or small the bosom of a model wa

Forty-Four Nathan It was late in the evening when my phone rang, drawing my attention away from the files I had been tending to. Mom. Our relationship had suffered a terrible strain after she found out I had sex with my mistress while Chloe was home. She had delivered a hot slap that would have sent me reeling if I was a teenager. I had simply just stood there, listening to her rant about how I and Noah were a disgrace to her. "Nathan?" Her voice filtered through the receiver when I picked up the call. "Hi, Mom," "Hi,..." She paused. "It's been a while,""Yeah," I replied, my voice gravelly, "It has."We stayed silent for some time. I could hear the sound of the deep sighs she took literally every minute. My chest squeezed with each one. I felt like I had caused her so much trouble. Especially with the press wanting to find out every detail about I and Lily's engagement. "Did you want something mom?" I asked, unable to bear the silence anymore. "How about dinner tonight? It h

Forty-FiveChloe"Ohayo!" I sang as I waltzed into the kitchen. It was Monday, and everything was all bright and peachy. I had dropped my baby at school, Addison would be arriving that day and I could already foresee a night filled with a lot of gisting and chugging ice cream. Mahn, I haven't eaten ice cream in a while. I missed it a bit. "Good morning to you too, Chloe. You're in a good mood." Mrs. Mourinho replied, a sweet smile on her face. Her grey hairs were tied in a bun atop her head. She was grilling some chicken in a pan. "Looking spiffy today, Mrs. M," I teased reaching out to grab a small piece of chicken and tossed it in my mouth. Damn it was hot. "No touching the food!" She shouted, slapping my hands away. "Too late!" I cackled wildly, racing to the bathroom to change. A few minutes later, I was out the door, dressed in black pants and a white blouse. I loved our uniform. I always felt so professional, dressed in them and taking orders. Arthur let out a whistle as

Forty-SixNathanI sat in Mom's dining, sipping hot pipping coffee from dad's mug. He wasn't awake yet since I had come rather early in the morning. Ever since the old man retired, nine in the morning became too damn early for him. My mother danced around her kitchen as if all was well. As if they hadn't dropped a fucking bomb on me on Saturday and expected me to be fine with it. "When will he wake up? I have a company to run, I can't be late on a fucking Monday," I grumbled, dropping the cup on the saucer. Mom was meticulous about shit like that. Saucers and tea cups and charger plates and silly girly stuff like etiquettes. Well, etiquette wasn't going to get us out of the damn pickle we were in. "You know how your father is. He needs to sleep," Mom said, tossing some oil in a pan. I watched as she added bits of fish and vegetables and a delicious aroma spread through the air. My mouth watered at the scent but I ignored it. I wasn't back in my parents' house to eat, I was there

Forty-Seven NathanGiving my parents a look that told them I would be back, I walked out of the living room with my brother. We walked until we reached the cane chairs by the poolside. "You have to stay away," He said, with his back turned to me. I frowned. "Stay away? What's that?" Noah sighed and turned to me, a smile on his face. It was a grin, smirk, or some mutilated form of laughter. It was a smile. And that scared the shit out of me. "No!" I yelled, rushing towards him and clutching his suit. "Whatever the hell you are thinking, don't fucking do it." "I have to," He replied, the bizarre smile stuck on his face. "You, mom, and Dad are in danger. That shit is real. Look I've made arrangements okay?" "No, Noah, I don't fucking understand," I said, feeling every bit like a small fucking child being told to sit out of an argument. "Don't do anything stupid," My brother grabbed my hands and wrenched them away from his shirt. "The less you know. The better. That's exactly how
