Chapter 23"Boss... You are here?" James, a young man in his early forties quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Mr. Mario. Miles stared at James, and he had to admit that he was better looking than he was in the photo that was sent to him although not that handsome, and not that he was concerned about that. James was a 5'8ft tall man with a masculine body, raven curly hair, a pair of blue dangerous eyes, a pointed nose, and a round face. Not that he was so handsome, he just looked better than the picture that was sent to him earlier."Hmm," Mr. Mario just nodded and proceeded toward the empty space remaining in the room with Miles trailing beside him."It's nice to meet you again, Mr. Mario. I've been waiting for you for hours," A man in his late forties said to Mario with a smile displayed on his lips."Hmm. I'm here now," Mario replied to him as he sat on the chair that was reserved for him."Who is this? Did you hire a new errand boy?" James asked after he gave Miles

Chapter 24Miles took the glass close to his mouth but paused abruptly and closed his eyes. All eyes fell on him as they awaited the stunt he was about to pull since it seemed like the ones he had been pulling were not enough yet."I changed my mind. The water is not chilled enough," Miles uttered as he dropped the glass cup on the table, and James clenched his fingers tightly as waves of anger spurred through him. For a moment, he felt like strangling Miles, but who was he to act in front of Mr. Mario when it already seemed like he was on Miles's side?"Why is the atmosphere so tense?" Miles asked out of the blue moon as he looked around even though he knew why the sudden tension. "Why don't you make it lively? You've not introduced yourself to us yet. We could discuss afterward," The man from earlier who had come for a business meeting with Mr. Mario spoke up. No matter the angle he looked at this from, there seemed to be something hidden. He was sure that Miles might be someone im

Chapter 25Ashley paced restlessly in the living room while holding her phone to her ear. She had been calling Miles for hours, but his number wasn't going through, and she was starting to freak out. Even though she wanted to stay calm and conclude that he would be back, she couldn't still help the part of her that was worried that something might've happened to him out there."Ugh!" She groaned frustratingly as she sank into the couch and sank her fingers into her hair."Wait! Why am I worried about him?" She stopped and asked herself."Come on, Ashley. You are a human and a nice girl, so you should be worried if your housemate is not at home yet," Her subconscious mind reminded her, and she breathed out briefly."Ugh! Miles is really driving me nuts at this point," She groaned and cringed angrily. Ashley glanced checked her phone screen a few minutes later, and saw that it was already past 11pm."You should go to sleep, Ashley. You have class tomorrow," She reminded herself, but sh

Chapter 26The next morningAshley tossed on the bed for the umpteenth time before she finally sat up and ran her fingers through her hair."Why did I do that?" Recalling everything that happened last night, Ashley couldn't help but blame herself for being like that. How did she suddenly become so weak around him that she nearly fell for him? The thought of what would've happened if she hadn't stopped him last night made her cringe. She would've spent the rest of her life regretting it.Brushing all the thoughts to the back of her mind, Ashley stood up from the bed and dragged herself into the bathroom. After her usual morning routine, she got ready for class and left her room. Her heart skipped a beat when she stepped out of her room and ran into Miles. She quickly turned her face away and hastened her steps toward the exit door."Ashley... Ashley," Miles called after her as he walked after her, but she didn't stop to look at him until they were out of the dormitory."What is it, Mi

Chapter 27"We are here," The cabby's voice announced as he pulled over in front of Miles's school. "Thank you," Miles muttered after he paid the man, then alighted from the car and proceeded into the school building.With his hands holding his cross bag which was hung across his body, Miles strode down the walkway that led to his class."He's here,""Miles is here," It suddenly felt as though he had turned into a celebrity as everywhere went silent as soon as he stepped inside the class. He paused and briefly sighed. For a moment, he thought of clearing the air about what happened the other day, but on second thought, Miles felt that it wasn't necessary.As he walked toward his seat, he spotted Jess sitting with Leo, both glaring at him murderously, but he could only care less as they were the least of his problems at that moment. He ignored them and went to take his seat.A few minutes passed before Ms. Kendra, their professor walked inside the class. She was looking as pretty as a

Chapter 28Ms. Kendra checked her wristwatch for the umpteenth time while wondering why Miles was taking almost forever to show up."I'm getting restless," She sank her fingers into her hair and raked it slowly before packing it in a ponytail with a band holding it tightly together.A knock sounded on her door, and she quickly stood up and adjusted herself. "Am I good?" She muttered as she grabbed her phone from the desk and checked her reflection on the dark screen of the phone."I think I'm good," She muttered and breathed in and out before she finally ushered him in.Ms. Kendra's heart flustered when Miles finally walked in, and she felt her pussy already craving her as it twitched excitedly. Miles had been her student for some time now, and all that time she had been nurturing feelings for him. She had tried severally to rebuke the feeling, telling herself that it was wrong because this young man was her student even though he was in every way her kind of man, but he had been so

Chapter 29Miles stood at the side of the road, waiting to haul down a cab. The incident from earlier flashed through his mind, and he scoffed. What if he had fallen for that? He would've fucked her right there in her office? Damn! That was one crazy shit ever.Miles was still trying to get a cab when a familiar black car pulled over in front of him, and he sighed frustratingly as he already recognized who the owner of the car was. It was James again. James stepped out of the car and walked over to him with a pretentious smile on his lips."You shouldn't be standing under the sun. It's going to be difficult to get a cab here. Why don't you hop in so I can drop you off wherever you are going," James uttered politely. "And I'm not going to change my mind. I won't help you plead with Mr. Mario, so stop showing your face to me. I'm going to call the cops on you if you keep being stubborn," Miles stated bluntly and walked away from him."Come on, Mr. Miles. You shouldn't be like this. My

Chapter 30Miles paused when he walked inside the living room of their apartment and found a young man seated on their chair. "Who are you?" He asked coldly as he gazed at the young man, and just then, Ashley walked into the living room from the kitchen."Oh, Miles? You are here?" Ashley tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled briefly at Miles like nothing was happening."Who is this, Ashley?" Miles asked, referring to the young man."Oh... That's Henry, my friend. Where are you coming from? Don't tell me you went shopping," Ashley beamed with smiles as she walked over to Miles to take the shopping bags from him, but he stepped away, his face filled with fury. For a moment, Miles was confused as to why he was being consumed by anger, why he was burning inside, and why he was jealous that someone came to see Ashley. Nothing was making sense to him. Besides, they were not even dating, so why was he feeling this way?"Hmm. I will drop these in the kitchen," Miles glared hard at the ma

Miles stepped out of the car that had just driven into the big compound of the mansion standing in front of him. The house was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, and he was even awed by the number of cars parked in the garage. Even though he wanted to take his time to admire the place and check out what it looked like, he wasn't so settled to do that."This way, please," Bryant gestured toward the entrance door and started walking toward it immediately, so Ethan followed him, counting his steps nervously. His jaw dropped when he walked into the living room which looked like another planet on its own, but he was soon distracted by the number of men in black suits queued in the living room. Something he was just noticing."Welcome home, master," Again, they all stood up and bowed to him just like how those people did back at the prison."Wait here while I go call our boss," Bryant uttered and was about to walk away when a deep baritone voice sounded along the stairs."I've been

Miles sat on the cold floor, gazing into space as he shivered from the cold piercing through his bones. His body felt stiffened, but he knew he had to hang in there. He needed to. He couldn't just give up at this point in his life.'You are not the father of my child' Those words have been living rent-free in his head for the past two days since he has been here, wishing that it was a dream. He wished someone would tap him to wake up and maybe tell him that it was all a nightmare. 'How did I get here? How did everything suddenly go wrong? Why did she do it?' he asked himself as he hugged his knees to his chest, but his only crime was being poor. His only crime was not being able to afford the luxurious life she wanted, but he did his best. Until two days ago, he had done everything in his power to give her all the happiness she wanted. He tried to provide for her with the little he had, and all he wanted was to have a happy life together as one big family with the kids they would hav

Chapter 51"Why am I getting dressed?" Sonia paused and asked herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. It's not that she was going to see him for the first time. She didn't even get this excited the first time she was going to meet him, so what was this about?"Ugh! Forget it," She rolled her eyes and continued what she was doing, regardless.Sonia was soon getting dressed, so she left her room. She was impressed when she walked inside the living room and the sweet aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed her."I trust your cooking so well... The aroma is everything," She closed her eyes and breathed in after she walked inside the dining room where she met Amelie setting the table."Whatever! The food is all ready now," Amelie announced as if she didn't see that the table was already set."But wait... Why are you all dressed up, girl?" Amelie was forced to ask after she scanned her with her eyes."I just got married, so I should look good," Was the only excuse she gave Ame

Chapter 50"Are you kidding me? You really got married to that dude?" Amelie, Sonia's best friend shrieked as she held the certificate in her hand with her eyes narrowed in shock."Are you out of your mind, Sonia? I mean, how can you get married to that dude? He looked like a student and he is not even...""Can you quit ranting, Amelie? You are going to make me sick if you keep being like this. Ugh! I feel like passing out," Sonia whined as she rubbed her fingers gently on her forehead while closing her eyes."It just doesn't make any sense to me, Sonia. You need to think about this again. You can't be married to that dude," Amelie insisted, and she sighed."What is there to think about again, Amelie? We are already married," Sonia just shrugged and rolled her eyes."It's not something to worry about, Amelie. I will handle things, ok? We are just married because of..." Sonia paused and briefly sighed. She didn't want to tell not even her best friend that her marriage was just an arrang

Chapter 49Miles stepped out of the car that had just pulled over in front of the city hall. It was the day he was supposed to get married to Sonia and also inherit the fortune. All he needed was just to get the marriage certificate and sign the contract with Mr. Ace later in the day, and everything would finally become his.The sound of his ringing phone pulled his attention as he walked toward the entrance door, and when he saw that it was Sonia, he quickly swiped the answer button."Hey!""Hey, Miles... I'm sorry, something came up here and I'll be delayed a bit. Can you wait for me, please?" Her innocent voice sounded from the other end."Sure, I will," At that moment although Miles knew that this marriage was just an arranged one, still, he didn't want anything else more than to get married to Sonia. She was everything he ever wanted in a woman.The call ended and he sighed. Miles walked over to sit at the corner of the city hall, waiting for his soon-to-be wife while imagining wh

Chapter 48Sonia glanced at Miles for the umpteenth time on their way home and she couldn't help but feel grateful for coming to her rescue. Maybe those bad guys would've harmed her if he had not shown up."Thank you," She muttered as she glanced at him, and he hummed as he nodded. Since she was still shocked by what happened earlier, Miles decided to drive her instead after he helped her fix the car.The ride to Sonia's apartment didn't take much time before they arrived, and Miles stepped out of the car after she did."You should sleep early. I'll be busy tomorrow so we might not get to see each other," Miles handed her the car keys, but she glanced at her wristwatch and turned her attention back to him."It's late. Why don't you sleep over? I have two rooms. You can make use of one of them...""Don't worry about...""Your house is still far from here and it's going to be difficult to get a cab at this time of the night. So, I insist," She insisted and he was eventually left with no

Chapter 47"Thanks for earlier," Sonia muttered as she glanced over to Miles on their way home."Hmm," Miles just nodded and looked out through the window. He had a lot of things to ask her which were not limited to her family, but they were not legally married yet, so he didn't have any right to ask her. At least not just yet."Why don't we go to the city hall for the marriage certificate next tomorrow? I have time then and I think it'll be perfect," Sonia suggested, getting Miles's attention."Hmm... That's fine," He nodded and she forced a smile.Sonia pulled over in front of Miles's dorm minutes later, and he removed the seatbelt from his body."See you around," Miles was going to open the door when she spoke up."Why don't you come over to my house tomorrow? I think you should know my house since we'll be getting married soon," Sonia suggested and he thought about it for a few seconds before he nodded."That's fine,""I will send you my address," He nodded and finally stepped out

Chapter 46"What are you talking about?" Mr. Frost hesitated for a few minutes before he finally asked.Over the years, Sonia had been pretending not to know everything that happened years ago. How her Dad had been spending the money that her Mom worked hard for.Mr. Frost was just a delivery guy who found favor in the eyes of the billionaire heiress, Claudia Ramos. They dated for a few months before they got married, and Frost automatically inherited her wealth because of the love Claudia had for him. A few years after the death of Sonia's Mom, her Mom's assistant had reached out to her from where he was hiding and told her about everything that happened but the death of her Mom remained mysterious. For years, she had been deprived of her mom's wealth, she was fine with it, but now she couldn't fold her arms and watch her Dad give it to his other daughter. That was the last thing she'd ever allow."We both know what I'm talking about, Dad... Do you think I will fold my arms and watc

Chapter 45"Why don't you stop with the pretense, Dad? We both know that you don't care about me," Sonia scoffed as she stood up from the couch, and Miles did too. "You! How could you be rude to Dad in the presence of a stranger?" Harley stepped forward and snapped at Sonia."Dad...""Your sister is just under the weather. You shouldn't be like that to her," Mr. Frost, their Dad forced a smile."You called me here to attend Harley's birthday dinner party..." She huffed as she crossed her arms on her chest and rolled her eyes."What game are you trying to play this time, Dad?""Sonia... I only called you here so we can get to know your fiance. Besides, it's family time together, so I was thinking you shouldn't be left out. Don't you think?" Seeing the smile on the man's face made Sonia's skin crawl with disgust. She tried to fight back her tears even though it was difficult to. Her heart was breaking into a million shreds. It's fine that he didn't like her and not that he was complain
