A Contracted Affair. TWELVE
Adrianna's pov I was waiting at the lobby when the nurse approached me, "Miss you can come with me now" She smiled politely, I followed happy and worried at the same time I was told my mother had some complications doing the surgery but she's fine and stable for now. "Is there any cause to panic?" I asked as she pushed the door to the ward opened, I liked the fact that this ward was much better than the previous one, "She might regain consciousness any moment from now, Maybe today or tomorrow" The nurse informed me trying to get my hopes high. "Thank you so much I really appreciate your help all these while" I knew she was the only nurse who paid me attention when I haven't paid the fees, She took care of my mother and assured me that everything is going to be alright. "It nothing dear, I'm glad you were able to save for the treatment" She patted my shoulder and left me alone with my mother, I sniffled and took her hand studying her face. She looked better than before she wasn't

Chapter Thirteen"Can we sleep now?" I dismissed and she nodded in agreement and I was glad she didn't argue or bring up any other topic, "Can we talk about the big secret now?" She winked and bounced on the bed. Great. I thought she forgot about that now I have to start from the beginning, "I made a stupid but good mistake" I stated and she frowned trying to make sense of my comment. "I met this guy and..." "Hope it's not what I'm thinking?" Her face lit up with expectation, "What are you thinking?" I asked in a nonchalant tone. "Did you fuck him?" Her eyes widened and I roll my eyes, "No I accepted to be his fake wife for two years" I blurted out and she gave me a weird look. "Who is this guy?" She stressed the word guy, "His name is Tris tan Ford and he is the CEO of TitanCorp" I explained and she raised an eyebrow at me, "The Tristan I know is a freaking billionaire and won't approach someone with such a awkward proposal" She exclaimed and I was getting bored if she doesn't be

Chapter Fourteen Adrianna's pov Kristanna left before I woke up and she left a note saying she needed to be somewhere important, She didn't go deep into the details but it looked really urgent. "Is this about her new boyfriend?" I decided I'll give her a call later, I took my phone from the bedstand and my eyes flew open. It was Tristan he has been calling and left numerous text messages for me, I felt a knot on my stomach what does he want from me so early this morning. I was about to call when he started calling again, "Hello?" I answered, "Where are you I'm at your door" His arrogant voice pierced my ears, Did he just say he was at my door. I rushed out to and scrutinize the living room, Luckily Kristy always love keeping the place neat so I was relieved, "What is he even doing here?" I look outside my window to see two cars packed outside, He had his back on the wall close to my door. I opened the door and he hesitated before coming in, "To what do I own this pleasure?" I as

Chapter Fifteen Tristan's pov I placed a call through to Adrianna and she wasn't picking up, I was worried did she decide to ditch me after paying for her mother's hospital bills or was it because of my request for a week vacation with my family. I told my father I was bringing her with me for the golf meeting because he insisted on visiting her in her house, I convinced him there was no need I will just bring her to him instead. "Prepare the car we're taking a drive out" I said to my personal guard, I'm taking them with me because we were going to the infamous De Luca family mansion. I knew taking Adrianna there was a big risk but it's better than creating suspicions for my dad, I hopped into the car and we drove straight to her apartment, "Was she with a guy?, Maybe I should have digged deep in her relationship life" I sighed wondering why I was letting that bother me its not like I'm marrying her for real, It was all a facade but I'm paying her pretty well for her service why t

Adrianna's pov "Can I steal her away for a moment?" Tristan asked his father when we were finally alone, "You really can't do without her huh, I was going to follow you to her house to pick her up this morning but before I could tell you, You already zoomed off to your beloved" Mr Ford laughed at his own joke I was sick and tired of all of this I couldn't forced a smile or even laugh. "Don't worry dad I'll be right back, you can't blame him for being so clingy" I joked and his dad laughed hard, "You are right dear" He smiled and let me go. "Tell your friend to stop winking at me it's disturbing" I complained as soon as we were out of my father's sight. "Then stop looking at him" He snapped and I frowned. "When are we leaving this place?" I asked , "I pay you for this shit so shut up and stay close" He ordered and I was stunned by his outburst. I couldn't believe it I was beyond speechless and I controlled my shaky hands not to slap his arrogant face, Does he think he can hold or

Adrianna's povI just stare outside the window as we drove pass the tall trees, I knew I was in this shit already there is no turning back, Not now. Not when we are just getting started. The driver parked the car and I hopped out without waiting for him to say any shit,"Don't let me come get you my self by weekend" He yelled after me I could have sworn he said that with a smirk, I hate this guy with my whole being, How can he threaten to kill me because I refuse to be his puppet. Is he also a mafia like the De Lucas or was he just trying to scare me so I would take this serious, Either ways he is a psychopath why didn't he just get married to someone instead of getting a substitute. I saw a note on the floor and it was from Kristy, "Why didn't I notice this before I left this morning" She made coffee for me as usual but I wasn't seeing anything on the table. "Was it the coffee that jerk was sipping this morning?" I groaned as I recalled he was actually the one who drank the coffee,

Chapter Eighteen Tristan's pov She was still fast asleep when we were half way to LA, I let her sleep on my shoulder which I would never would have allowed if it was someone else. I knew I was starting to have a soft spot for her and I somehow wanted to take the risk, Back when she walked up to me at the airport, I had to control myself from staring at her. It's crazy each time I see her it always feels like the first time meeting her, Those desert brown eyes are alluring and I'm curious to find out more about her. I don't know why I feel this way maybe it's because I would be married to her for two years, I'm starting to think I made a mistake making it a two year contract, I felt her head rolling off my shoulder so I placed my hand to hold her in place. What's wrong with me, I sighed and slowly my head landed on hers and I slept off, I was waken to a tap on my shoulder I opened my eyes to meet with her gaze. "Do you have my glasses?" She asked and I blinked awkwardly before ha

Tristan's pov"Who would want to be happy about a fake marriage because they are in need of money for their sick mother?" My subconscious reminded me and I sighed, Why was I even comparing Lyla to Anna they are both different people. "Are you listening?" I heard her ask me staring at me with concern laced in her voice, "Yes?" I inquired and she roll her eyes, "Just move your arrogant ass I'm thirsty" She said causally taking her phone, "Did you just call me arrogant?" I couldn't believe my ears and she nodded in confirmation. "Cause that's what you are" She stated without looking at me in the eye, "If you are so brave then say that to my face" I handed the bottle water to her, She accepts and lifted her gaze. I felt my heart skipped a bit when she leaned closer to me our lips were just few inches away, Staring deep into my eyes "You are an arrogant asshole, A pompous jerk that's what you are" She smiled seeing the stunned look on my face as if she read my mind, Her gaze landed on my
