"Honestly, if a billionaire asks me to fake date him, I would simply say yes. No questions asked." I roll my eyes at my youngest sister but keep my focus straight ahead; I take driving very seriously. Afterall, I can only enjoy this activity for one more week before I'm back in New York being chauffeured like the billionaire wife I am. "It's not like he asked you to go hiking," I thought she's done with her argument, "He just wanted to dine with his wife whom he hasn't seen for two months, bring her somewhere just the two of you instead of having the mother in law at all meal times. How about you say yes for a change? Just for tonight?" "You mean sit there all night watching him eat all the good food while I fight my nausea? That kinda date night?" She giggles at her silliness, "Yeah I forgot you're pregnant. But what about Bali?""...what about Bali?""Didn't he ask you few days ago if you'd like to go to Bali?""...and?""Oh come on, Al. He just wants to spend some time, honeymo
People say the prettiest a woman would be is on her wedding day. I feel like I owe it to her because when we got married, it was so sudden and quick, I'm sure she would like a proper one considering her engagement to that Indonesian man four years ago was big and extravagant, imagine how vast it would be for the wedding itself.What she had with me, was merely a meeting between five people (us and the man who married us, along with two witnesses). Though I've gotta say she did appear beautiful doesn't matter how simple everything was back then. I've instructed my assistant to plan for a beach wedding next week, making all the arrangements including flying all the necessary people if she has to, just to make it grand and dreamy. In fact, I've asked her to do the preparation the moment Alya went to Jakarta, giving her ample time to ensure everything runs smoothly. Yeah I know I haven't gotten the bride's agreement but I will carry her to the jet if I have to- she WILL have the weddin
I get a feeling he's gonna go all out starting today, because the first thing he told me this morning was to clear my schedule (I had been going to my bakery these days) as it would be a full day ahead. He even had a lady escorting me to places (whom I believe is one of my security detail because I think I've seen her somewhere, most probably she was disguising as a bypasser or something hmmmmm) as he went missing to God-knows-where. First it was the shopping spree that I believe was to prepare me for a dinner date tonight, because the lady at the shop kept shoving me dinner dresses. There were also summer outfits brought out to me, which I think would be for our trip later to Bali. No, I still haven't agreed to him. But as I mentioned, I get a feeling he's gonna veto it out of me so let's just assume I'll be having that trip anyway. Next, I was brought to a fine-dining restaurant where I finally met the man, already waiting for me at a table with his laptop in front of him. Despi
"Can we... erm." I hesitate when he has already undressed down to his brief. It was funny two minutes ago when I ate my bread while watching a half naked man stripped his pants off in a sexy, making-it-a-show kinda way but now the atmosphere has changed as he looks at me with concerns. I stop munching the bread, unconsciously biting my lips to ease down my nervousness, "Can we... erm, pause this for a sec?" He doesn't say anything but stares at me in confusion, as if asking for an explanation for killing that excitement he had earlier. I can't help but to feel intimidated by the huge bulge he keeps constrained in his underwear. I try again while he's still kneeling in front of me, "Are you... mad?" Chuckling with the broadest smile despite the serious expression a second ago, he brings himself next to me and pulls me into a side hug, "You're asking me if I'm mad?" I nod in all seriousness as bubbles of laughter erupt that I feel like I just asked a stupid question. Was it? Was i
I know this will never be easy. I know anything with regards to Alya will always be challenging but I welcome them all, with open heart and even bigger mind; I've always loved a feisty one anyway. Scarlett was feisty too, that's why I never got bored with her. She's the exact balance of yin and yang; sometimes she's calm and supportive but most of the time she's that feisty woman who always excite me. When I had women posed as Scarletts, they tend to follow the script too much that after a few months, I got bored easily with the realisation that this is not the Scarlett I was married to. When I met Alya, she gave me the same vibe I had when I was with Scarlett. At times she's submissive and followed the script Drey and Ms Collins had drafted for all my Scarletts but most of the time she just went rogue with her own lines that I became addicted as to know what else was she going to do that is the opposite of what she's told. "I married you because I needed to sleep with you." I wa
Being told you're the centre of his universe, the bane of his existence, and all other sentences we only read in romance novels, well, I've gotta say I'm head over heels for him. As if this dreamy baby-moon at Bali is not enough, he had to top it up with the ultimate surprise when he planned a perfect beach wedding with the attendance of both my family and his (he actually flew every one of our family members from all over the world!) to witness the event where he made it official that I'm his forever, and he to me.We've been back in New York for a month now and have lived like a true couple who's madly in love with each other that it gags everybody out (by everybody I mean Genevieve) to see how cheesy he is all the time. I'm already halfway through my pregnancy though it makes me worried that I'm not showing at all, I actually avoid talking about the baby with Honey because I'm afraid I'm gonna freak out and ruin our relationship that's beginning to blossom.So Gen is the only per
It feels like only yesterday we had sex on this kitchen island when today, merely hours later I'm suddenly being served divorce papers by his squad of lawyers. "You just need to sign here." The grey haired man whom I believe is the leader of the squad, since he was the one who's been talking since the beginning, puts his index finger on a dotted line at the end of the page he's showing. Half an hour ago, I was busy prepping for dinner since tonight's theme is Indonesian Food so I always get excited and cook at least three different dishes as to introduce him to my culture when my helper who comes twice a week to clean this place told me a few men in suit wanted to see me.I rushed upstairs to grab a shawl before welcoming them only to be told they were sent by Mr Gunn to finalise the divorce. I stood there like an idiot neither mad or angry because I was too stunned for the fact he left this morning all cheery and happy with his promise to come home earlier than usual to help me co
"Daddy didn't tell us anything about the divorce!" She gasps in disbelief the moment I told her what was going on, "I thought you followed him to Europe! I thought you guys are on your second baby-moon!" I smile bitterly while shaking my head, "I haven't seen him for a month now." Thirty nine days to be exact. "Oh my God!" She takes my hands in hers, gripping them tight as to give me the courage I've been needing since he left, "What happened? Why did he divorce you? So you're alone at the penthouse now? You should move in here, Al! It's too dangerous to stay alone when you're already in your third trimester!" I pull another smile, "Not yet, another two weeks till the next trimester." "So it's agreed? You'll stay here? Hmm?" "It's okay, I'm good where I am. I'll be here for another week then I'll fly to Jakarta." Because international travel is only permitted until the 28th week of pregnancy. I'm gonna need all sorts of documents and letters from my gynae if I were to travel beyo
