85. Lawrenson mansion.
"What if you haven't?" I asked back.
"How can you say that I haven't?." He whined."And how can you say that I have?" I asked and he rolled his eyes."Stop thinking Martin. We know nothing and it's not worth a headache. Moreover, if Ralph has known then he would have told about it already." I said trying to encourage him."What if he's been hiding about it?." Does this person ever stops overthinking?."What will he gain from it?. He's not that type of guy Martin." I said while keeping my hand on his shoulder."Are you sure about it?" He asked."I'm pretty sure. Don't think about it." I replied with a small head nod and smiled in reply.We stayed in the park for some time."Let's get back. It's getting dark." I said while standing up."What about Evelyn?. When will she come back?" He asked while standing up."I'm planning on picking her on my way," IRelated chapters
Married To My Rival. 86. I'm sad....
The next morning, my daily schedule got messed up. I woke up when I felt like waking up. I turned towards the other side of the bed in a habit to call Celine and it felt heart-wrecking when I found it empty."Yeah. She's not here." I said in a quiet tone.And...that sentence was enough for my mood to be off. I miss her....already and....so much. I got fresh up with that mood off look and went downstairs. I act obedient and sulky when I'm mood off and I don't mind if it's my parents or my enemy.I saw Adam having his breakfast and I'm seriously not in the mood to get into an argument with him. So, I sat on the chair opposite him silently. The maid served the breakfast and I started eating it.I can't stay in the place I hate when I'm completely mood off. I need to go to the place where people pamper me. So, I thought of going back to the Lawrenson mansion. But.....I should ask him first.I looked at him to speak but shifted my gaze immed
Married To My Rival. 87. Things would be different.
I woke up around 3 in the afternoon when mum woke me."I brought snacks and a refreshing drink. Why don't you fresh up, first?" She said with a smile.I nodded and went inside the restroom. I got fresh up and came outside. I sat back on the bed and mum gave me the food plate."Are they good?" She asked while patting my head."Yeah. Thanks, mum." I replied with a smile."How are you feeling now?." She asked."I feel better," I said and she smiled in reply."Don't think too much, Celine will always come back." She comforted me."I know, it's just I'm not used to being without her. I feel weird." I said while taking another bite of the toast."I understand, dear. You'll feel normal eventually. Adam will take care of it." She said while caressing my cheek. I looked down for a bit. I still feel bad for making all this a lie."Yeah, I feel the same mum.
Married To My Rival. 88. The office.
The elevator stopped at the office floor and I took a long breath as the doors flung open. Martin and Evelyn walked out and as I walked out, I saw the staff encircling around us."Welcome, Mr. Harrison." Said a voice beside me. I looked to my side and saw a young lady with a broad smile. I think the first rule I should pass is the dress code. How can she wear such a tight dress and that too such a low tone?.I'm feeling disgusted to look at that. I turned my face away. They all greeted us and we finally reached my cabin. I sat on the chair and Martin and Evelyn sat in front of me."Poor ones are happy that they got new CEO. I pity them for being ecstatic." Martin commented with a scoff and Evelyn let out a light smile in reply."No jokes when you work," I said with a cold tone, and Martin stiffened immediately. A few minutes later I heard the door knock."Come in," I said and the door flung open. The earlier one with that disgusti
Married To My Rival. 89. Response.
"I hate you," Martin said in a low tone while hugging me back."Me too. I'm sorry, I have to be strict till the company gets back to its previous place in the market." I said in a low tone. We broke the hug and I caressed his cheek."You should do this to Evelyn too. She got scolded even without her fault." Martin suggested."I'll apologize but I won't hug her," I said while breaking the hug."Fine, just talk to her." He said with an eye roll."I'll bring the food and also your wife. Wait for us." Martin said with a smile before leaving the place. I sighed and sat back on my chair. Sent another mail to both the companies.Evelyn and Martin came in with food but Evelyn's face was still dull. She's really pissed, yeah I had it coming. We sat on the couch in front of us and started having lunch when Martin elbowed me. I raised my head and gestured to apologize as we agreed earlier. I thought for a while and t
Married To My Rival. 90. Mr. Brown's condition.
The next morning, I woke up, got fresh up, and went downstairs to the gym. I was working out when I saw Evelyn coming in with a tired look and started working out. We finished and went back to our rooms.I took shower and came out after 15 minutes. I walked towards my wardrobe and took out dark blue trousers and on top of that, I wore a grey shirt and a dark blue coat with the tie that suits the look.Added the black shoes and belt and wore the watch to complete my look. I went downstairs and Evelyn came after some time. Geez, these girls really need time to dress up. We were having breakfast when Matin came."Feeling good?" I asked as Martin sat beside me."Not yet. I'm still tired." He said with a low tone."I'll appoint the driver by afternoon," I assured and he nodded his head.We had breakfast and made our way to the office. I reached my cabin and the first thing I did was looking for a driver. I will consider my
Married To My Rival. 91. The heartbreak.
"So, you will just reject the offer. You worked hard for it. Talk like an adult." She snapped at me."I would have convinced him about appointing another model. Why did you interfere?" I asked back."I did what's the right thing to do. I'll help you with the work." She suggested and I rolled my eyes internally."Adam, calm down. I think she's right. We had no choice." Martin backed her and I didn't reply."What's your problem anyway. You can do the modeling it's not that hard." She said with an arrogant tone. She's sure going to regret using that tone."The problem is I'm don't want to spoil the things that are setting right with a rookie model like me. And I didn't get a fucking certificate from Paris University as you did. So, yes, it's hard to do the modeling." I shouted on her face.They both calmed down and sat on the seats."I'm investing my money into this and I will eliminate any flaw
Married To My Rival. 92. No honorofics.
As we stepped out of the elevator we saw the staff greeting us. And you know who got my attention out of all these people, the lady beside Adam, she was overwhelming with joy and she greeted only him, not that I mind even if she does not greet me, but yeah she looks different.Strange some kind of. What was she overwhelming about anyway?. That they got a new member or that she got a new CEO who looks hot and worth hitting on. I admit he's hot, anyone would guess I was lying if I don't say that. And I don't mind who the fuck wants to hit on him.Jealousy?. Ha, I rather feel pity for the way he treats people. No one stands for his fucking cold behavior and that stupid talks in which he tries to win by any means. I rolled my eyes. Martin and I followed him to his chamber.Martin commented the pity of their joyfulness which I agreed wholeheartedly by smiling. And there goes the cold bastard's talk.'No jokes when you work.' I repeated those words
Married To My Rival. 93. The bitch fight.
I didn't know how the time went on and days passing on. It was Friday afternoon and I went to the top floor for lunch with my stupid fake husband and my department's dreamy Martin.I was walking towards Martin's cabin when I heard some voices, looked like an argument tho. I stood in front of his door and saw that Chamelion Camellia in Martin's cabin being way too dramatic."Don't deny, I saw you flirting with another girl in the canteen." She asked.Wait, when did these guys grow so close that she has the nerve to bark on the person who is in a higher position than her?."I wasn't going to," Martin stated plainly."I thought you liked me." She said as if he was the one who initiated the whole thing."Ha?. What?. I'm not even that close with you. I flirt with everyone. Ask any person if you want." Martin replied with a scoff while folding his hands towards his chest."Then why did you flirt with me?"
