Rowan's PovIt's been a week since my last encounter with her, that crazy woman. But no calls from her, which means she didn't agree to it and that friend of hers wasn't able to convince her.I was just a fool to have listened to that friend of hers, and also accept the idea.Now am back to square one!Since this stupid idea didn't pull through, I'll have to use my last option cause I can't afford to ruin my reputation. I should've gone for that option before now.I picked up my phone to quickly call the person that will help me get rid of her, permanently. I dialed the number, but a call from my other phone interrupted me.I picked up my other phone to see the caller ID, to my greatest shock it was the woman I plan on getting rid of. Zoey!She finally called!How surprising.I picked the call, and placed it to my ear."What a surprise, I thought you'll never call." I said.I don't know why, but I felt like getting on her nerves like the last time. It's still strange to me why I like
Zoey's Pov"Emma, don't you think this is a little too much?" I asked as I stared at myself in a mirror.I am putting on a short black short sleeve gown. My hair in a tight bun, and little strand hanging at my face sides. A bit heavy makeup.I seriously look like someone going on a date."How is it much? You look perfect." Emma said, admiring how she had styled me.I rolled my eyes."I am only going to sign a contract, not going out on a date." I stated.After calling Rowan three days ago to inform him that I accepted, we picked a date when he'll be free and come down to my city so I'll sign the contract. This happens to be the evening it happens, but my dear friend is making it seem like it's a date and got me so dressed up."Even if it isn't a date, you can't look like a rag in front of the Rowan Weston." Emma said, narrowing her eyes at me when I turned to face her."You make it sound like I'm going to meet God." I said, I really don't know why she says his name with so much admira
Rowan's PovWhen she called and told me she had accepted to be my surrogate, I felt a wash of relief flow through me. We planned on meeting up in her city to seal the contract, so three days forward I flew down to her city.Now today is the day we meet to finalize everything. I got dressed in my black suit, styled my hair to be perfect. I don't know, but I feel like am too overdressed for just a meeting of a few minutes.I brushed the thought off and made my way to the back seat of my car, and soon we hit the road to the venue. Speaking of venue, I totally forgot I didn't send the address of our meeting to her. I picked my phone, and quickly messaged her the venue.Soon we arrived at my restaurant. Three years ago, I had bought this place and turned it to a massive restaurant. One of the best restaurants in this city if i must say. I made my way to the VIP area, there I do stay to host my meetings. No one dare to come that area without my permission.I settled in and ordered two glass
Zoey's PovI made my way to my house door after he had dropped me in front of my house. I rang the door bell, shortly after Emma opened the door. By now, the rain isn't that much."Am so glad you are home safe. I was so worried about you, I tried calling you but networking was furstrating." Emma said as I made my way inside."Yeah, I tried calling you too cause my car decided to ditch me at that moment. But network was bad." I said, sitting on the couch."Really?! So sorry about that, but how did you managed to get home without being drenched?" She asked, sitting next to me."Rowan dropped me." I said, as I pulled off my boot heels."What?!" Emma half yelled, making me jump on my seat a little."You got a ride by, the Rowan Weston?!" Emma asked, excited.I rolled my eyes."You sound like I got a ride from the almighty God." I said with a scoff, relaxing my back to the comfy couch."Hell yeah!" She said.I stared at her like she's gone nuts."Tell me about it?!" She asked."Tell you ab
Zoey's PovI opened my eyes to look up at what on earth i had bumped in to that made me break my glass of milk, and almost pushed me to the ground. I was dumbstruck when I saw it was him, Rowan Weston.I felt such a strange tingles run through my body, I didn't want to avert my gaze from his like there is something interesting in those eyes of his that I can't quite place my finger on it.As if being hit to the head, I pulled out of this intense gaze and out of his arms that I didn't know i was in.For a moment, I felt my heart skipped when my eyes landed on his. Strange right?!"You! What are you doing here!" I blurt out, looking down at the broken glass cup on the floor."This is my house." He replied with a straight face.Oh, yeah. I forgot that this is his house."I mean, what are you doing in front of my door like some statue?! Wait, were you peeking on me?!" I asked, narrowing my eyes on him.His eyes went wide for a moment, before he chuckled and mumbled something under his br
Rowan's PovI turned back to see it was Zoey in the water, struggling in the water. She must have fell into the water by accident, and probably do not know how to swim.Great!Without thinking, I dived into the water and went to her rescue. I went down in the water cause she's no more struggling up, but is now down in the water. I sighted her unconscious, and going down slowly. I felt panicked in a second, I reached to her as quickly as I could. I picked her in my arms, and went up to the surface. When our heads were now outta of the water, she's still unconscious in my arms. Fear gripped me, did she really drown to death in just a few minutes?!How is that possible?!"Hey! Hey, Zoey?!" I called out, slapping her cheek slightly.She suddenly started coughing out water which really startled me outta no where, but I am relieved she isn't dead. After a second of coughing out the whole water that went into her system, she stopped when her eyes met with mine.And for some reason, it felt
Gianna's Pov"Not expecting me?" He asked with an eyebrow raised and giving me one of those sweet smiles of his that flutters my heart, and set my whole body ablaze.To be honest, I still love Bryan. He is my first love, and the first man that fucked the shit outta me. Taking my innocence away, so I don't think I can ever be that mad on him for so long."What are you doing here, Bryan?!" I asked, kinda in a whisper.I really don't want to draw any attention towards us, thank goodness my PA left to pack my stuffs."I am here to see you, Anna. To know how you are doing." He said, taking my hand in his."Didn't I tell you to stay away from me?!" I said, pulling my hand away from his.I looked around, thankful no one was watching."I know, and I wanted to obey your command. But, I can't…all I want is you and just you Anna." He said, cupping one side of my face.I let his words run through my body as I closed my eyes, feeling the warmth of his hand on my cheek. To be honest, I don't want t
Zoey's Pov"Am not leaving till we settle this." I said.I heard a large stamp, and before I could make out what it was. I felt the presence of someone in front of me, and suddenly my arms were trapped in a firm grip which startled me."What's your problem, huh?! Did they send you to annoy me over the edge this night?!" His voice came, and I could sense how pissed he is.His grip on my arms tightened more, hurting me and scaring me too."Do you love annoying me?! Or do you just want to use this as an excuse to try and get closer to me?!" He said.I couldn't make out his face, but am sure he's way pissed. I tried freeing my arms from his grip, but it wasn't working. "Tell me, huh?" He said, I could feel his hot breath on my face like he is so close to my face.Also, an aweful smell of alcohol hit my nostrils. He is drunk!"You are hurting me, let go." I said, sounding terrified.I am terrified, he's drunk and angry. What if something happens, and he hurts me in this drunk angry state
