Chapter Twenty Two Adrianna's pov Mira went on and on telling me how she got married and how she gave birth to twins unfortunately they died at birth. I felt sorry for her but I didn't say anything because I thought it would bring up old wounds, "What does your husband do for a living?" I asked stylishly if I was going to get married to his cousin I need to know more about them. "Oh my husband owns Crownway hospital, And I'm the owner of Dymnamites Hall" She said proudly, Whoa this people are damn rich Crownway is the largest and most expensive hospital in the country, And Dynamite Hall is a big shopping mall mostly for the royals and people with wealthy personality. "Mike is part of the popular music band H2O and his networth his over twenty billion, My parents hated his choice of profession at first they thought singing for a living was stupid and try to force him into business, But he left home and ever since then he didn't stop making my parents regret their choice not to sup
Tristan's pov I woke up the next morning to find the bed empty it was just me, No pillows and no Adrianna I found the pillows on the ground close to my side of the bed, "Where could she have gone to so early?" I roll my eyes wondering why I was bothering about her. But wait what if she left when I was still asleep and nobody would notice her leaving, "Shit!" I sprang up from the bed maybe I should have let her have the bed to herself last night. I checked the closet in the dressing room and her clothes were still there, I sighed in relief then it occurred to me what if she left without taking any clothes after all I bought it with my own money. "Damn it!" I opened the door and slammed it shut after me before rushing downstairs my mom and the others at the dining table, Probably setting the table because only the women were there. "Mom have you seen Anna?" I asked perplexed and she gave me a weird look, "You should have at least change into something better before rushing down to
Chapter Twenty Four Adrianna's pov What's he doing here after making a mockery out of me, Claiming to own me like I'm some sort of property just because he pays me. Now I regret making breakfast he didn't apologize for what he did last night and he was being cynical about everything, I woke up this morning and all the pillows were gone at first I thought maybe he decided to throw them off the bed. Only for me to find his hands wrapped around me and his palm cupped my breast, I was livid but I didn't wake him up I left the room to clear my head when I saw the chefs preparing breakfast, I just agreed on helping I didn't care about what the rest would think but I didn't expect him to be so cruel. "What happened?, Is it because of what I said at the dining table?" He asked in a soft tone but I refuse to be weak, I refuse to give in to his pretence I can't keep letting him win because he brought me here and fuck those stupid feelings I was started to grow for him. "Adrianna?" He calle
Chapter Twenty Five Adrianna's pov I froze when he said but I quickly composed myself I didn't want to blow up my cover after all Tristan pays me for stuff like this, "I actually thought I was sitting with an adult maybe I was wrong" I muttered to his hearing and he put his phone away. "Tell me why will I fake getting married to someone, For what?. Money?, I have a lot so why are we having this conversation" I noticed the smirk on his face, "Did I say anything else?, I think you are taking it seriously and it just confirmed my suspicions" He added and I chuckled pretending to find his words funny. "Now I get why Tristan hates you, You act like you're smart and you definitely aren't close to smart" I've got to give him the credits though he is damn smart and also witty. "Instead of insulting me why don't you proof it" He said the smug expression on his face remained and I felt like slapping his handsome face. "Alright" I laughed and I knew Tristan was watching us, Damn I never tho
Chapter Twenty Six Tristan's pov I was mad at Adrianna for sitting with Wilson I even tried giving her a signal but she ignored me, I drove the van in silence I wonder what that asshole was saying to her. She was smiling and laughing something she would never do with me, I'm not jealous that would be ridiculous I just hated seeing them together. I remembered Lyla saying she likes Wilson most of all my cousins because he is as handsome as me, Does Adrianna feel that way too. I clenched my hands on the steering wheel trying to control my anger, Maya added more fuel asking those absurd questions. I was shocked Adrianna answered them correctly and I couldn't come up with a correct answer for hers, Did I make myself so obvious she observed so much with the little time we spent together. I knew she loved money but I just added physical touch even when I noticed she isn't the clingy type, She was obviously angry and embarrassed at my reply but I care less about it. She shouldn't be

"You know what I'm going back home first thing tomorrow morning" I threatened and he chuckled. "Like I care, Just get ready to pay back all you own me" He chuckled and raise his fingers up, "Twelve million dollars" He counted and my eyes widen, How the hell did I spend so much money in such a short period of time. "That's outrageous!" I flared up and wore a fake smile when I saw Maya coming towards us with a concern look on her face, Great we created a scene. "Oh really I didn't calculate your mother's bills with it.." He stopped seeing my demeanor change suddenly, I gave him a intense eye contact trying to signal him of Maya's presence. He understood me and wrap his hand round my waist staring deep into my eyes, Gosh this feels so awkward I felt a knot in my stomach. "Are you guys arguing about that bitch?" Maya asked getting to us, "Yeah Anna t
Chapter Twenty Eight Tristan's pov I smirk at her confused face and walked pass her, If she wanted to spend her time with Wilson then so be it. Elle smiled at me and I returned the gesture it's not like I'm enjoying it I just wanted to make Anna mad. "So you wanna spend some time alone with me?" She offered flirting with me, Why does she always have to ruin the mood, "You should stay with Mike he's single" I replied and she roll her eyes. "I'm not interested in him and he's too much of a jerk" She remarked, Well that's none of my business I glanced at Anna and she was talking to a man. Seriously!. I caught up with them and I could hear their conversation, He wants to sign her as a model for his brand and she was explaining that she wasn't a model. "Is everything okay?" I asked taking her hand, She shot me a deadly glare as if to ask what I was doing, "No problem at all her I was just discussing business with her" He claimed and I nodded. "She doesn't work for cheap brands and

Anna gasp instead of leaving me she went on her knees trying to reach me," What are you doing?. Go!

"Take my hand Tristan I can't leave without you" She said and something inside of me flipped, What's wrong with her. "One minutes left" The crowd reminded us and I saw how determined she was to save me so I accepted, We stood on the same tile and she smiled at me a genuine smile. "Don't worry I already know the trick, Most of the tiles are thick and some aren't just follow my lead" She instructed and I chuckled nodding my he
