BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 12: EVIL FAMILY
NAYA’S P.O.VI walked out of the kitchen holding a tray that contained a number of dishes for dinner. Eric, Karen, Nelson and Mandy were all seated at the table waiting. Karen and Mandy chatted animatedly with smiles on their faces, and for a minute I was saddened by the fact that I might never have that kind of relationship with anyone in this house. I wondered if they would ever like me enough to sit and chat and laugh with me like this. Probably not. I shook off those depressing thoughts, heading to the table as fast as I could. I slid the plates gently on to the table.“Heyyy,” I greeted in a bright tone and a wide smile. “What do you think you are doing?” Karen’s voice rang sharply in my ears.My brows creased but I refused to look at her and continued to arrange the plates on the table. “Hmm…. serving the food?” I responded. “And who gave you the right to do that” she snapped.I said nothing at first. Once I was done serving, I straightened up and turned to look at her. “Well
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 13: WEIRD EMOTIONS
TALON’S P.O.VI could not remember the last time I got surprised.When I said ‘surprise’ I meant the kind that caught you off guard, that stopped your heartbeat for a millisecond and then got it racing again. I had trained myself to not entertain any form of emotions including surprise. I spent years of my life learning to not show my emotions – fear, sadness, surprise, shock. Even when I once received news about a cousin of mine dying, I had not shown my shock or sadness or fear. When my parents organized surprise family trips to expensive countries and places, I still never showed any emotion – surprise, happiness or excitement – never. Growing up, no matter the amount of surprise party my parents threw for my birthday, I never showed real surprise. My facial expression was always the same – jaw tightened, lips pursed, face stoic. Each passing year and I never changed and my parents were beginning to feel frustrated with me; I could sense it. They spent years trying to change that
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 14: AWKWARD TIMES
NAYA'S POV The door opened up immediately I reached it and without sparing a last glance behind me, I shut it. My breath comes in fast as I try to steady my breathing.For more than a minute, I stood there in front of Talon, a thin towel shielding my nakedness from him, while he stared at me. I could have sworn he was looking at me the same way I looked at him, but that's the thing with Talon. His eyes are like some shield, hiding his emotions from the world. He was really good at hiding.I walked over to the mirror and let the towel fall when a thought creeped in.What if Talon walks in?I threw the towel around me, holding it in place, before returning to the door. After securing the lock, I let out a sigh for two reasons. Talon wasn't staring at me through the door, nor had he walked in which assures me he's not a pervert. Second is because he wasn't staring. I was hoping, which was of course stupid, but I was hoping that Talon found me slightly attractive and was at the door, pe
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 15: A DIFFERENT MAN
TALON’S POVThe man in front of me, staring at me, the same Talon Thwaites I'd known all my life, was not this one. He couldn't be. Talon Thwaites never stares at woman the way he did. It's unlike him.Anger pouring through me at the sudden feeling I can't place, I raise my hands up, and let it fall forcefully on the mirror in front of me.Guess who comes walking into the room? Another woman.***Why do you try so hard to please Eric?immediately the words fell into my ears, i lost mototr function. or ratehr, my motor function was rearranged. As though being pushed, I turned towards the girl sitting on the bed and I felt my anger rising as I neared her. Why do I try so hard to please my dad? Was she mad? The one thing I didn’t do in my life was please others – except yourre a customer paying for the comfort.When i was about to open my mouth, the sound of knocks on the door called at me. I blinkied and she was gone from before me when I opened my eyes. I didn’t stand for long in that
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 16: MY WIFE
NAYA’S POV“It’s been long you told a joke,” Eric said, forcing a laugh out of his lips.Even as he said it, it was evident Eric didn’t believe it himself. His face was grim and it was the saddest thing I’d ever seen. He seemed like he would crash into tears if we stayed too ling in his presence.Talon was clad in a white shirt tucked into indigo pants, his black shoe glinting in the light that shone in the room. Eric was in an armless round-necked shirt that was worn over khaki shorts and a slippers.Less than five minutes ago, Talon had knocked on his door. The time was between 7 and 7:15. From what I knew thanks to Lily Eric rose early but stayed in his room until it was 8am; Talon was disrupting his routine.When Talon announced his presence at the door, is father had come out with disbelief evident on his face as he stared at Talon and I. I understood the look. Talon would leave him before 6:30 and only made it home until the sun was long gone. So, seeing hi standing there, in f
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 17: FUCKING RICH
NAYA’S POV When the car reached the front gate, we were checked in by security who smiled heartily at Manuel — dude was so popular! Gosh! Past the security, who made a show of checking underneath the car for bombs. Anyways, Manuel shook hands with one of them and I didn’t miss the green paper that changed hands.The car drove past the checkpoint, moving past card and I waited for us to settle into the parking area. Except we didn’t. The driver kept driving towards the building and I felt my chest tightening.What happens now? What if security called us for trespassing? Would the trip to the Maldives be cancelled? I was looking forward to this! Why is the driver acting like he’s some brainless twat? This isn’t how it happens in the movies! The driver’s don’t drive like they’re going mad!Looking over to Talon, I saw his eyes buried in his iPad as he relaxed into the passenger seat of the Mazda CX-5 we were crushing along in, looking as handsome as ever. What was wrong with him? Why wa
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 18: SEX TALK
Chapter 18Talon's P.O.VI understood that I could be so serious sometimes. But, I felt that it is the best way to handle things, especially things that involved humans. Humans needed to be pushed, so I thought. I spent my whole time focusing on my iPad during the flight. After all, I wanted nothing serious with Naya. So, why should I even try to start up something in the first place? Anything at all."Talon," she called out. For a few seconds my gaze fell upon her. It was the first time I had given her a long stare since the flight began."What," I said, curtly. Even if I knew I sounded too cold, I kinda felt she deserved it. What the heck was she trying to say? "I want us to talk.”"About what?" I inquired as my attention shifted back to my device."It's about your own part of the bargain.""What about it, Naya?""You said you were going to make me a super model. Remember?" I totally ignored her. "Or have you changed your mind about it already?""We've already talked about all of t
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 19: WORTHLESS
TALON’S POVI could not contain my anger and disgust when the plane landed and almost crashed into the middle of nowhere. How could something as severe as that happen?"Hey, you two!" I yelled at two of the crew members. "You're fired.""Please, don't do this sir –""Shut up." I turned to some other crew members. "And you all are fired too. I don't ever want to see you anywhere near me!" I was burning inside. At that point I didn't care about what was going to happen to them. I just wanted them out of my sight. By the time I was done firing some of the crew members, there was only a few persons left.Naya and I got down from the plane and I ordered Manuel to make reservations for our apartment. Naya was quiet the whole time. I thought about what she might be thinking about, but I didn't bother to ask her questions.We got into a private car and we were taken to an hotel owned by one of my old friend, Vince Dallas.As a young dude in his thirties, he was a man with a cunning personalit
