A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 48
As we took our seats, a waiter came over to our table almost immediately.“What drinks can I get you both?” he said and Mathew glances at me first before back turning to the waiter.“I’ll have a martini on the rocks. What about you Bailey, what you have?” He asks me.“A Sex on the beach,” I say and the waiter nods leaving us, he returns after a short while with our drinks. I took a sip from it almost instantly to let my tongue enjoy the flavors after all there’s nothing to keep me going than a little liquid confidence, especially when I’m very nervous about the sport.“When did you start playing this sport?” I ask throwing the cherry from my drink into my mouth.He rubs his chin for a moment. “It’s been a minute since I have played but I think I have been golfing for more than fifteen years now, It is a great sport.”“Wow, that’s a very long time so that means you are like a pro at this.”“I would like to think I am.” He chuckles. “So what about you dear, can you play?” He asked me.“

William’s P.O.V.I gently adjusted my posture as I moved my head from left to right, This was an attempt to get the relentless ache out of my neck. I sunk further into my chair closing my eyes. Here's to ending yet another stressful day at the office, I knew I was a workaholic, it was a badge I wore with pride and latitude. I usually never come into the office during the weekends but today was an exception as an urgent matter needed my attention here and I guess it pulled me back to the office today. The next coming days are very crucial. My company is launching a new product soon and I have to do everything in my power to make it a successful launch and nothing less.I opened my eyes after a few minutes and picked up my slick iPhone to glance at the time that read that it was past noon before placing the phone back face down on the table. I shut down my laptop, and closed the files on my table before getting up, picking up my keys and phone, making my way to Luke's office down below.

William’s P.O.VI picked up her small frame and placed her on one side of the bed before using the duvet to cover her back up. She stirred a bit up but didn't wake up as she mumbled some incoherent things in her sleep. I brought out my phone from my pocket, tapping aggressively on the screen to phone my family doctor.I felt guilty and responsible for what she was going through right now. After all, I was the one who instructed her to sleep on the floor when the bed was big enough for more than two people to share. I’ve never felt remorseful for anything before but this feeling seemed very similar to guilt.I place the phone on my ear still watching the sleeping figure of Bailey as I listened to the phone ring. The doctor picked up after the fourth ring.“Hello Mr. Armani. Good afternoon, how can I help you today?”“How soon can you be at my place?” I inquired not taking my gaze away from Bailey’s form.“I-I’m quite busy right now Mr. Armani and it would take me thirty minutes to an h
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 51
The past two days have been very weird.Let me start from the beginning.I woke up the next day to find myself sleeping on a comfy bed instead of the cold hard floor I had initially slept on. I was wrapped with my duvet on my body like a burrito, with a damp towel on my forehead. As I rose from the bed, I was struck immediately by the throbbing discomfort of a headache, which made me lie back down on the bed. After a few minutes, I slowly sat back up to notice a bottle of water and an Advil on the bedside table. I reached for the bottle and I took a few sips before plunging the Advil down my throat. I took a look around the room to realize I was indeed still in Williams's bedroom.“I am definitely dreaming.” I mumbled to myself because I remember sleeping on the floor yesterday and I knew better than to go near William’s bed, so how did I get here?I turned to the other side of the bed to see a sleeping Williams lying there. I covered my mouth in shock to avoid making any sound in or

I made my way out of the elevator and walked over to Henry’s desk. He looked up as I approached the desk, I greeted him with a small smile on my face.“Good afternoon Mr Henry, How have you been?”“Good, and how have you been, Mrs Armani?”“Henry, You know about all the details surrounding this marriage so there is no need for any formalities, please just call me Bailey”“Alright, so what brings you here Bailey?”“I came to see William, is he in?” I asked, glancing at William’s shut office door for a moment before shifting my attention back to Henry.“Yes, he is in.”“Okay thank you, Um, is he busy?” I ask.“I can't say, but no one is in there with him right now but he will be having a meeting soon.”“Ok thank you, Henry, I won’t be long,” I said before walking over to William’s office door. I took a moment to inhale and exhale before raising my hand to form a fist and knock but I stopped midway as I dropped my hand back to my side as I remembered two different scenarios, the first be
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 53
By the time I woke up in the morning, William was long gone. I still couldn’t believe he’d actually let me stay in his bed to sleep last night. Even when I woke up this morning, I still felt as though I had imagined the whole thing. I guess under that hard and cold exterior, he still has a little bit of human attributes.I didn't have anything planned for today. I was going to spend the whole day at home. William’s father, Mathew, wasn't home either. They both had things to do concerning the so-called launch happening soon which I didn't even know about and I’m supposed to portray the role of a supporting housewife. I miss the days of working at the cafe. It wasn't that fun but at least it felt way better than being in this huge mansion by myself.Since I wasn’t going anywhere today, I decided on a black tank top and sweatpants to spend the day in. I ate my breakfast in the kitchen as I spoke with Mario and Agatha since I woke up late and their shift would soon be over.I’ve been waki

Staring at myself in the mirror, I smoothed the fabric of the satin cobalt gown catching a glimpse of the huge rock that sat on my ring finger which I seemed to have forgotten all about before now. The cowl neckline accentuated my chest area, giving my boobs a great allure. My hair was packed up in a neat chignon bun and the very low backline accentuated my neck and my spine giving me an air of a seductress. The cobalt gown rested mid-thigh and I was extremely comfortable in it, I embraced the confidence it gave me.My makeup was done to perfection as it highlighted my features and still made me look so simple at the same time. On my ear were a pair of silver earrings that also highlighted my neck. The gown was paired with the long white strappy heels and small purse Hazel had shown me earlier.“Are you ready?” Hazel asks, coming to stand behind me as I stare at myself in the mirror. She did a brilliant job doing my hair and makeup and also picking out the outfit for me. She certainly

“How did you know I was here?” I ask Hazel as she walks through the doors of the patio. She was dressed in a black turtle neck top, a brown jean skirt, and black shoes. I was resting at the poolside, laying back on a lounge chair in shorts with a white round neck crop top and sunglasses resting on my nose.Yesterday when I came back from the art gallery, I immediately got in the shower, changed into my pajamas and went straight to bed. Eating was the last thing on my mind and I didn’t end up consuming anything at the event yesterday either. I only drank a lot of champagne.Hazel walked over to the lounge chair beside me and sat down facing me. “I asked Agatha and she directed me here.” She turns her gaze to the large pool before turning back to me. “Wow Bailey, look at this view, so beautiful,” She gushed over the pool and I nodded in agreement joining her to take in the view.Perhaps I’ll invite all my friends over sometime but I'll have to ask William first. Uggh, I groaned out lou
