The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Ten
Donald's POV Hector's resounding laugh boomed across the phone. “What the hell are you talking about?” It was clear that my request threw him for a loop momentarily.I need you to listen to me, it's urgent okay? I need your help.” My fingers tightened around my phone. I could almost feel the moose tightening around my neck with each minute I spent married to that witch.Hector became alert, sensing the seriousness in my tone. “Man, I can't really talk where I am…buh are you free to come by the office?”My heart had sank when he began drumming up excuses but they were promptly lifted soon after. “Can I do that today?”“Of course.” He easily agreed. “I'll tell my secretary to pencil you in. See you soon, buddy.”He ended the call soon after, probably attending to business. The same thing I should be doing, instead I'm racking my brain for ideas on how to cut loose from Rose.For some reason, she's seeking for ways to keep me tied down to her.Quite annoying, especially as she's the one
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Eleven
Donald's POV I was practically over the moon with the good news. According to Hector, I would need to get the cheque cashed and then I would have the money transferred directly into my bank account.I was feeling like I had just walked on the moon because the thought of divorcing Rose…. it's put a slight pep in my step.I called back to the office telling them that I would not be available for the rest of the day and to move my schedule till tomorrow.On getting to the bank, I reached out to my account manager handing over the check so that he could cash it and transfer the money to me. He directed me to a lounge to wait while they had all the nitty-gritties I ironed out.Since I was a VIP client it didn't take much time at all and in less than an hour I got the notification on my phone and the man showed up shortly after handing me documentation that the wire was successful. Now that I had more than enough money to get me through this escapade with Rose, I didn't really feel like g
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Twelve
Donald's POV Slightly infuriated, I marched up to the desk angrily confronting the lady.“I was just here a couple of minutes to go and you told me that there were no rooms available yet that man came by and you offered him a room key. Why?!”“Sir… I said that there are no rooms available for you, I didn't say that there were no rooms available in general.” She said tartly.The anger that I was trying to suppress reared its head with a vengeance and I leaned forward, clutching the marble countertop. “Who is your manager? Call me your manager now! I think I need to speak to him because this kind of behavior is not as acceptable. Why would you treat me like that?”It was baffling why they would choose not to offer me a room even after I checked their company page and they treated everybody with respect…why was my case different?“Sir those rooms are for VIP guests. I'm sorry but you clearly are not VIP.” she slid a pointed look my way, focusing on my cheap-looking clothes and shoes. O

I picked up my bag, about to hoist it over my shoulder but Sally stopped me.She snapped her fingers twice and a stoic-looking guard rushed up to her, his hands behind his back with his shoulders ramrod straight as he adopted the military style.“Ma'am?” He's spoken directly to Sally not offering me a glance.“You're to help him with his luggage and show him to his room. It's on the first floor, so ring ahead and get everything ready for his arrival. “Thank you.” She said dismissing him soon after so I tend to other customers. The man finally my way stretching his hands forward. “This way sir,” he took the lead, with me with me walking close to him. He would glance back from time to time as we walked down the hallway to ensure I was following him.We arrived at an elevator and he stopped, pressing a button for the first floor which was where the suite was located.He stared directly in front of him, not bothering to communicate or even start up a small conversation. I kept myself to
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Fourteen
Donald's POVThat night, I slept like a baby making sure to switch my phone off so I wasn't interacted by any calls or messages from anybody asking for my whereabouts.For the first time in a long while, I slept in the next morning, waking up a couple of minutes past 10 am.Thanks to the luxurious suites I was in, I had a floor-to-ceiling window in the bedroom which offered me a view of the nighttime and in the evening and also a beautiful view of the clouds and birds chirping in the morning.I sat up on the bed, stretching my hands above my head while I let out a yawn. The nap in the bed was the best one I had in years, the bed feeling like a soft cloud not to mention the sheets made of soft, Egyptian cotton.Now I could see why the rich always wanted to get richer, this kind of lifestyle was easily addictive.I'm sure if I spent a month in this suite, then I would be motivated to work harder than I ever had.I didn't feel like getting up yet so I spent a couple more minutes in bed s
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter One
Donald's POVHunched over the desk, I tried to make heads or tails of the work before me but my brain was too tired to provide meaning to it. A headache was niggling at the back of my brain and I raised my hands to my temples, soothing the spot.Too tired to think, I stood from the chair heading towards the kitchen to make a fresh pot of coffee.Once it was ready, I made it the way I liked it. Black and two cubes of sugar.Once the semi-bitter taste of the coffee touched my tongue, everything simultaneously felt better.Sighing, I leaned against the counter taking my sweet time before I walked back to my desk, my brain prepped to work.I had barely sat down for ten seconds when my phone buzzed with a notification.Reluctant to check it but curious, I craned my head towards the direction of the phone, my phone's screen was lit up, with a message from Tessa.Now, that piqued my curiosity. Tessa was a friend of my wife, and it was a bit odd that she would be texting me. Abandoning the w
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Two
Donald's POV I couldn't help but feel sad, wondering what I'd done to deserve her treating me like this. “Rose, why are you doing this to me?” I moaned.“Oh, please get over yourself will you?” She snapped, sounding harsher than she ever had towards me. Lowering her voice, she hissed. “In case you've forgotten, we're just a contract couple…nothing more and nothing less so please stop whining about it.”For a moment, I was stunned silent unable to believe that she could throw that in my face…not after all we've shared. “Rose, I'm sure you didn't mean that…right?” My voice held a tinge of hope ringing in it as I waited for her to dispel my doubts.Her mocking laughter was clear through the speaker. “Oh, darling, I meant every word I said. I never loved you and I think it's high time you let that sink in.”She hung up shortly after, leaving me to stare at the phone in bewilderment.What the hell?After what happened, I had to come to the realization that I was the only one invested in t
The Contracted Heart of the Billionaire Heir Chapter Three
Donald's POV The tweets of the birds woke me, my eyes flew open. I was disoriented for a moment and it took me a minute to remember where I was and what I was doing on the bed. The events of the day went through my mind. Flinging back the bed covers, I sat up running a hand through my face.My phone buzzed on the bedside table, alerting me to new information from work. Slipping my feet into the flip-flops I kept by the bed, I bent to pick it up when I saw the bright blue box on the other end.It has a big bow on it, the type you would place on birthday gifts. It must have been from Rose. After what she did last night, I was in no mood to talk to her or even see her and maybe she understood that, feeling some sort of remorse.The information from his office was forgotten, I sat down on the bed with the box on my lap tearing into it. It was a suit.Deep down, I grew giddy and happy that she wanted to work on our marriage until I saw the card next to the suit.It was an appreciation n
