A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 168
ETHAN P.OV*BEFORE THE TRIP TO ROME*It was so very late in the night so I decided to just crash in William's place just for the night and just staying here was like a way for me to get closer to Bailey. I knew that deep down she must have something for me but was just trying hard to stay away from it because of William.I was going to bed when a knock on the door disrupted my sleep. I groaned out of frustration and got up only to be met with Gianna who looked at me with a small smile on her face.I checked the time and turned back to look at her again, with confusion written on my face as it felt a little diverse that she was here."Um…is there a problem?" I asked, wanting to know her response."No," she answered. " I just wanted to talk to you about something.""Ok, come in."She entered and for a while just wouldn't stop gawking at the room. I've known Gianna for a long time and knew just how much fancy things enticed her a lot so it wasn't much of a surprise.She sat on a chair no

BAILEY P.O.VI was still in shock and Gianna smiled at us. It was weird, especially with the fact that I thought that I had escaped her for a while only to figure out that she was here too or perhaps I was hallucinating things. " Gi…Gianna?" I called out and she nodded in response."In the flesh."I decided to pull William tighter, as i gave Gianna not so warm smile, She had a smirk on her face, and just stood there looking at us like we were some kind of show. William pulled away from me, rubbing his hand at the back of his neck nervously, i was surprised by William behavior, it felt like he was a school boy who had just been caught cheating on his girlfriend and i didn’t like it one bit." What are you doing here?" I asked." I came here for Aunt Celia's birthday. I couldn’t miss it for the world," she laughed and I pretended to laugh along like it was a funny joke.She walked away to God knows where and I was left all alone with William, ready to face the embarrassment that I was

ETHAN P.O.V"This food is delicious. I'm glad we're all doing this together," I said, taking a bit out of my meal.We decided to hang out a little after and it's been really fun, plus it felt like a way to just get around with her and have fun and I've been enjoying it immensely.I didn't know why but I felt a little happy that Gianna wouldn't be joining us for the outing. I just wanted to spend some time alone with her right now and I never seemed to be able to do that with Williams around.But right now, it was just the two of us with no disturbance from anyone and it felt right. I always feel at peace when I am with her."I've never had Greek food before, thanks for taking me to this restaurant," she said, showing appreciation, and I couldn't help but gawk at her sincerity."I could show you around if you want and it would be a good way for us to finally resume getting along well," I offered but was making sure not to go in too fast.She looked at me, her face a little displeased b
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 171
BAILEY’S P.O.VThroughout the car ride, neither Ethan nor I said a word to one another. I was just so nervous and didn't know what to do as I thought of all the possible things that Williams might say to me.I was sure that he was going to be so upset about it and was most definitely not going to take things lightly which was another reason why my head was spinning loudly.Ethan turned to me, with so much concern in his eyes. "I know you're worried but it's something that a little explanation can fix, there's no need to be so bothered by it."I wanted to roll my eyes at his words as they didn't even do a good job of comforting me. I knew that he was just trying to make me feel better but in this case, he was doing a bad job.I didn't say anything and just smiled at him and mumbled a ' thank you ' thinking of things that Williams might do to me but then again I didn't even know why I was so worried.William wasn’t a man of many words.It wasn't like we were doing anything wrong. The onl

BAILEY P.O.VI stared at him in awe, as he made his way towards me. I still couldn't believe it and it took a while for me to register it all at once. The look on his face was very intruding and alarming at the same time."Are you going to get ready?" He pestered me. I immediately got up from the bed and dashed into the bathroom.I didn't know why but my heart was beating fast as I was trying to register everything. I finished bathing and surprisingly enough, he was still in my room seated on the bed.It didn't occur to me that he would still be here because my mind was that he would be waiting for me to finish in the bathroom.I walked up to him and said, "I'm done. Are you going to be seated here throughout?" I inquired.He scanned me from head to toe and I felt my cheeks go pink at an instant. I had gotten so lost in everything and tried to process it all down that I didn't even realize I was still in my towel.He smiled at me, a smirk slowly forming on his face. He was so sly some
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 173
WILLIAM’S P.O.V*BACK AT THE RESORT*I noticed that Bailey was gone and that got me alarmed, especially with the fact that she was nowhere to be seen and she didn't even bother informing me that she was anywhere.Or perhaps she was in the bathroom."Doesn't this just remind you of the old times?" Gianna said. I smiled at her, not knowing what to say as the old times were the one thing that I didn't even want to have to think about. She had made me go through a lot and now she's acting like everything is fine.It was fine but things could never go back to the way it was and I planned on keeping it just that way. I wasn't going to behave like some immature boy, I was a man after all and that wasn't needed.I just ignored whatever she was saying, using my eyes to scan around the area in hopes that I would find her soon enough. I just wanted to make her happy, she blamed me for just abandoning her and now she just left.Gianna turned to look at me and then raised her brows. "Where's Bail
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 174
GIANNA’S POVThe both of them walked down and my heart clenched just at the sight and I just had to smile through the pain that I was feeling, pretending like it was nothing. I didn't even know that he was nowhere to be until I turned only to discover that he was not even anywhere close to the resort anymore. I panicked at that moment wondering where he was.I called him and the name the mentioned 'we', I knew there on that there was something more to it but I just acted like it was perfectly fine."Sorry if I disturbed you, I was just a little alarmed that both of you were nowhere to be found," I explained.He just smiled at me and nodded in response. It was pretty late so we decided to go home instead and throughout the car ride, the only thing I kept thinking about was Williams.There was something suspicious about their marriage though. I just couldn't understand what it was and tried to get a hint of it but I was sure that they were not the average normal couple at all. But i kn
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 175
GIANA’S P.O.V"So it's all an arranged marriage?" I asked again, and he nodded in response to my question.I stood up, still in disbelief that I had been fooling myself all along. I had initially thought that it was a real marriage only to discover that it was nothing but just a big lie.This was like a pat on the back for everything that I wished to do and I felt a smirk appear on my face as I thought of literally everything that I was going to do."Wait." I turned my attention back to Ethan and asked, "Why are you even helping me? Why do you feel the need to do all of this?" He took a deep breath and sided his way towards me with his hands, firmly coerced in his pockets. "It's because I love Bailey and I firmly believe that he doesn't deserve her."I stared at him in disbelief as he told me his true feelings. I was still very confused and just stood there in disbelief after he made mention of that.It was something that I would never have expected since he was exceptionally close t
