WILLIAMS POV"What the hell is going on here?" I asked, after seeing the closure between them. It was rather unusual and suspicious because this was not the first time I had seen them in such a manner.They immediately disassembled and I could see that she was very embarrassed with the look on her face but I was annoyed at her behaviour, first she invades my privacy yesterday ranting about how she wants to tell me something, now she is here hugging my cousin in my fucking house. I agreed that this isn't a real marriage but that doesn't give her the right to hit on another guy after all we've been through especially not my relative."Um," Ethan spoke up. "We both were just discussing something which led to a hug. It's not what it looks like."He explained it all to me and I pretended to listen attentively like I cared about the shit he was spewing. "I think you've overstayed your welcome Ethan, it would be better if you left."He tried speaking up but I gave him a look and he just took
BAILEY P.O.VMy phone rang again for like the one-hundredth time, “Arghh,” I groaned loudly. I was so fed up, William kept bothering me with calls and There was no way in hell I would let him get away with all the horrible things he said to me.My phone rang again and I just couldn't take it, he was irritating me. I just couldn't handle the pressure that he was putting on me. I brought out my phone and switched it off once and for all.That'll teach him.I can't stand his arrogance right now, so what if I slept with Ethan, it was months ago and it didn't mean anything he had no right to say those things to me. I was so fed up with everything, there is so much of his horrible attitude I can take and right now he was the least of my problems.I wanted to clear my head a bit and after what had just went down, Williams's house was the last place I wanted to be. I felt so suffocated.I was about to cross the road to the other side when a blue car pulled over. I was confused as to who it wa
WILLIAM’S P.O.V"Please make me my usual coffee," I said to Agatha who was not too far off from the kitchen. It was an early day and I had to leave very early for work."Ok and good morning to you too," she greeted me and left to make me a cup of coffee. I waited at the dining table for her to bring when she was done making it, my attention was diverted when I noticed Bailey.She was still dressed in her pajamas and I couldn't deny, that seeing her morning hair attracted me a little bit but I just tried my best to ignore it, acting like it was entirely nothing to me."Good morning," she greeted but I just responded with a small nod. She didn't pay regard and just walked off into the kitchen.I didn't say much because I was still thinking about yesterday. She slapped me, walked out on me, and also dared to come back acting like it was nothing and I was the one overreacting.I acted like I didn't care when in fact I so fucking pissed that she did what she did. She came out a few minutes
CHAPTER 158BAILEYThe next morning, I got up late, sluggishly getting out of bed and making my way to the bathroom as I did my morning routineI pushed the kitchen door, freezing where I stood as I took the scene in front of me.Thought of William crossed my mind, I didn't see any sign of him at all and it was making me feel somewhat frustrated. His attitude towards me just changed these few days and it seemed he was hell-bent on making me feel terrible.The door snapped open revealing Agatha. "Sleeping beauty," Agatha says, looking up from what she was doing to greet me. " How was your night?" She asks."Fine, yours?" I ask trailing my eyes to the other person in the room."It was fine too." She answers me with a smile before following my gaze. "I doubt you've met Gianna.""Gianna?" I ask, confused. Then it crossed my mind that she mentioned her name last night. She was the one that made William act weirdly yesterday."Yeah, she grew up with William, they've been friends since dia
William's P.O.VA day after the product launch event.I turned to my side, staring at the sleeping form of Bailey. who was sleeping so peacefully, her chest rising and falling with each breath she took and a little snore escaping the space between her lips.I thought back to yesterday, I was beyond ecstatic that it was a success and the day went without a hitch.I got up from the bed, stretching as I walked into the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for work. A couple minutes later, I walked back out of the bathroom, with my towel firmly secured around my waist. Glancing at Bailey who was still soundly sleeping, I smirked remembering how I wore her out and how the night ended.I ran my hands through my soaked hair making my way into the closet, I picked out a suit and got dressed walking back out to get my keys and phone. Sending one final glance her way, I make my way out of the room, getting into my car, and driving for another day at the office.I parked my car in the lot cur
THE PRESENTWILLIAM. P.O.VI couldn't wait to take off my work clothes and get a good bath because many other things were making me get all stressed. I couldn't have been more annoyed with Henry today, or perhaps I was just venting out the natural frustration I was facing.“Hi William,” I heard a familiar voice mention my name. I couldn't have been more shocked at that as I turned to see who it was.She had that same vibrant smile on her face that brought about so many memories. I just couldn't get myself together at that moment, as all I did was just stare blankly at her in pure horror.“What…what are you doing here?” I asked, staring deeply at her confused.“Silly you,” she laughed out loud. “My mom works for you, remember? I'm here to see her.”She walked over to the dining table, arranging everything accordingly, while I just stared at her, still confused by the fact that she was really there.“Gianna,” I called out softly, and she wasted no time in turning to look at me with a sw
WILLIAM P.O.V“Yes, send me those files right away,” I said over to Henry and hung up the phone. It has been a stressful day right from the first week, but now that I'm at the top, I have to do whatever it takes to remain at the top.I was lost in my thoughts until a knock distracted me, I looked up to see that it was none other than Bailey. She had a cup of coffee in her hands with a small smile on her face.“Can I come in?” She politely requested. I took a deep breath and nodded in response for her to come in. She smiled and walked towards me, placing the coffee on my desk.“Thanks,” I said and took a sip of the coffee. I had to admit that it tasted perfect and was quite intriguing with the designs on it.“You made this?” I asked and she nodded in response. She took a seat opposite my direction, while I just watched her, wondering why she was here in the first place.She hardly ever comes into my study, so it got me a little alarmed that she was here all by herself without any need
BAILEY P.O.V“Thanks for coming, Shayna. I honestly didn't know how I was going to deal with this all by myself,” I laughed, digging through my closet for what to wear.“But why are you so frightened anyway? Isn't it just like an outing with a girl, and you're making it like a big issue,” she claimed.I rolled my eyes at her, wishing that she knew what sort of girl it was and the humiliation I had to face because of her. Thinking about going out with her was driving me crazy, especially with the fact that she only pretends to be nice to me around everyone else.I wonder what she'll say or do when we are alone shopping?“Trust me, Shay. She's nothing like what she seems, and I sense that there's something more to her that I don't know,” I said, letting out my thoughts.I would rather not jump to conclusions yet, but Williams was just showing every sign of it. He always acted weird whenever her name was mentioned and the day she was seated with us, he was also acting so weird around her
