10•• Who is this... Esther?
|My Marriage Is A Contract; Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Ten° •JASON THORNE•“You were not supposed to be speaking to her,” I glared at Esther who snickered and took a seat before me.“Do I care? No. Do I give a fuck? No.” She rolled her eyes.My gaze lingered on her for a while as several murderous thoughts roamed through my head.“Don't forget that the punishment for murder is life imprisonment with hard labor.” She reminded me like she was some attorney or something.I snorted and looked away.“She is nice. She asked if we had met before.” She said and that got my attention.“And what did you tell her?” My eyes were hard on her.“Yes.” She grimaced and I eyed her hard.“Why the hell will you tell her yes?” I questioned her, almost racing my voice.“Because I enjoy seeing you yell in anger and being angry.” She replied with a too sweet smile.I glared daggers at her. Esther has been with me since I started the company. She was my best friend and she was really dear

11•• Call Me Daddy
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Eleven° •JENNIFER DARLINGTON• We were soon done with the packing. Jason had moved to a corner to pick up a call but I could hear some things he was saying."Yes, when are they arriving?""Okay. We're done. Tell them I hate it when they are not punctual." He hissed.He must be discussing the moving company with Esther. I was glad that they were yet to come though because I was not ready to leave this house. I know I must not have lived here for up to a year but I felt connected with it because it was the place I had spent my life savings to move into.Jason finished speaking on the phone and moved towards me. He had Johnny carried in his left arm. I tried my best not to think deeply about it because I could not help myself. He was doing things a normal person would not do except they needed something from that person and all he needed me to do was pretend to be his married wife. He was way too kind for me not t

12•• Forbidden Help
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Twelve° •JASON THORNE•I could not help it. The awful words that fucker said haunted me during the entire drive back home so much that I had to apologize to Jennifer but she surprised me. "Yes. For sure, you would watch me hit him."Her words replayed in my head again and I could not help the proud smile that spread on my lips."You do have some smiles to share today." Esther's voice came through my phone. I instantly jerked away from my thoughts, I had forgotten that I had video called her.I cleared my throat and arched my brow. "And what is it you are calling me for?" I asked her, evading her question.She tilted her head to the side, disbelief flashing through her face. "Who called who?" She asked, blinking twice.I waved her off, remembering I was the one who had called her. "I want you to check on something for me," I told her."And what is that?" She said."The number of people that would be attending m

13•• Top-Up Fear
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Thirteen° •JASON THORNE• That evening, I took it upon myself to show Jennifer the way around the house. She seemed fascinated by every part of the penthouse I showed her."So that place was the master bedroom," I told her, referring to the place she had dropped and arranged her boxes. She nodded slowly, pulling her lower lip in."Wait, how about my son's room?" She asked, a painful and reluctant expression on her face.I smiled lightly. "I have not prepared his room because I do not know what you want his room to be like but let me show you," I said and we both proceeded to the room just opposite ours. I already had the place cleared up before moving out from the place I used to live as Jennifer's neighbor.She glanced around. "This place seems spacious, don't you think?" She mused.I shrugged. "There is no other way. I can have Esther pick out some children's room themes and send them to you for revision." I

14•• The Easier The Better
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Fourteen° •JENNIFER DARLINGTON•I sighed for the last time, anxiety settling in the pool of my stomach. This was the second gown I would be trying on and as I did, my confidence kept dropping by the rate. I stared at myself in the mirror, questions whirling in my head.Why was I bothered about the kind of dress I should wear to meet his mother?It was not like she would need to approve of me or anything.'But you have to let her approve of you. That way, Jason will not be caring for you and your son for nothing.' The voice said in my head. Closing my eyes briefly, I turned to the black gown I had chosen at first and let out a deep sigh.I bit my lips anxiously and picked up the black gown. Wearing it, I added the silvery bracelet to my wrist and did some light makeup. As soon as I was done, I stared at my reflection in the mirror. Satisfaction replaced the anxiety and I took my black purse. Okay, this was giv

15•• A Kiss That Never Happened
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Fifteen° •JENNIFER DARLINGTON•It should not have happened. That kiss should not have happened...Sadness came falling on me like an icy bucket of water as soon as I got into the bathroom to change. I was suddenly reminded how everything was going to come to an end in some months' time. I did not want it to end. I wanted it to continue but I was met with the realization that every one of these was not real. Was never real.Tears streamed down my face as I stood before the mirror in the bathroom. I had left Jason with Johnny because I did not want him to see me in this state. In such a vulnerable state.I sniffed in again, wiping the tears off my face but more tears came dropping uncontrollably. I continued to cry. No more thoughts. No more words. Just the tears that could not be stopped.These were the tears of the pent-up pain from the last time. Worry gnawed at me. What would happen after Jason and I stop see

16 •• Ex
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Sixteen° •JASON THORNE•I walked into the kitchen, catching sight of Jennifer standing close to the island. She was sipping coffee, dressed in her office wear and she turned a glance at me.The flashback of what happened last night replayed before my eyes again and I blinked, getting rid of it. Licking my lips, I opened my mouth to greet her. "Good morning," Her lips thinned into a smile as she gave me a light nod. "I made you a cup of coffee." She told me, reaching out for the other cup and extending it to me.I collected it and offered her an appreciative smile which she did not return but she turned back to the tray of served bacon and eggs. My throat bobbed as my mouth watered. I must say she was a really good cook. Johny was in his little space, enjoying his breakfast which he had probably refused Jenny to help him with.The steam from the coffee fanned my lips as I lifted the cup to my lips to sip."I wi

17•• Beeped Lunch
|My Marriage Is A Contract: Craving The Girl He Always Wanted| °Chapter Seventeen° •JENNIFER DARLINGTON•I waved at Johnny as he perched on Didi's arm. He waved back, grinning back at me. Giving Didi a last smile, I stepped into the cab and zoomed away, they still stood behind me before they disappeared from the front mirror.I focused on the same tab in my hand. I was to submit some documents and with what happened last night, I was unable to go through them. I quickly ran through it and edited a few errors. My mind kept wandering back to this morning scene and that of last night.Maybe I should not have been that harsh at him. I should probably apologize when I get back to him at home today... Or even in the office.Shaking my head, I stared outside through the window, suddenly captivated by the view. Was there freedom now? Why did I feel I was yet to be free? Even after Jason had promised to keep Johnny and me safe from Stanley, I could not help the feeling of being a burden.I
