Dear Contract Wife, You Are Mine 35
Chapter 35Thinking about May was something therapeutic for Miles. How his life has been filled with brightness ever since she stepped into it, the happiness she had brought to him over the few months that they'd known each other. The thought of everything made Miles excited and unable to hide his smile and his gratefulness.After the incident that happened five years ago, Miles had lived the recent years of his life wallowing in pain, thinking he would never find someone like her again. His heart was never going to open to another woman again, at least that was what he thought, not until May came into his life and changed everything.It was love at first sight for him, but how could he have summoned the courage to confess his feelings to his secretary who was obviously terrified of his slightest presence? Getting rejected wasn't his thing, especially from someone he cherished.Miles's heart missed a beat as the incident of that night replayed in his head. For weeks, he had been remin

Chapter 36Maybelline Walter POVI gave it a second thought as I stood in front of the mansion where the man had asked me to meet him. Am I making the right decision? I asked myself for the nth time as I held my phone firmly in my hand, my heart pounding hard against my chest. Even though I knew it would be dangerous to meet a stranger alone, my curiosity wouldn't stop pushing me, especially at the thought of it being related to the mysterious death of my Mom years ago.I was just eleven years old when my Mom who was single at that time, passed away, and I had since spent years of my life in an orphanage until I turned the legal adult age of eighteen years old, and had to move out of the orphanage to fend for myself.That night, I had come back from school only to meet my Mom in the pool of her own blood, and at the time I could get my neighbors to help me take her to the hospital, she already passed away.The memories of that day haunted me for years before I was finally able to get

Chapter 37Maybelline Walter POV'I have been looking for you for fifteen years, Maybelline. I'm glad I finally found you, my daughter''Your mom was my college sweetheart, but we separated after graduation and I later got married. Fate brought us together again years later, but I was already married then and my wife was pregnant at that time. We had a thing together because of an old spark, and she got pregnant with you' My heart wrenched painfully as his words replayed in my head. I tried to hold back my tears as I sat in the backseat of the cab I boarded, but it was so difficult that I eventually had to let it all out.'What happened afterward?' As much as I was already disgusted by the story, I couldn't help but ask him as I looked into his eyes back there, but his reply rather left me disappointed.'My wife found out about the pregnancy, and I had to pay your Mom to abort you. I was wrong, May... I shouldn't have done that... I should've fought for her' I was impressed that he di

Chapter 38Maybelline Walter POV"How are you feeling? Are you ok?" Miles held my hand and patted my hair with worries written all over me, but I only nodded. I couldn't bring myself to tell him about what happened. I had no idea how to go about it."Do you want to eat anything?" He squeezed my hand gently."No, I'm fine," I slowly shook my head, and he nodded.An awkward silence assumed the atmosphere. I placed my hand on my stomach, worried about my child. I wished I could see the doctor and probably had a chance to ask him if my baby was fine, but I couldn't."I'll be back shortly. Get some rest," He stood up from the bed and left. A few minutes later, fortunately, the doctor walked inside and I was glad that it wasn't Miguel since it was their hospital I was brought to."How are you feeling now?" He came to stand beside the bed I was lying on, and examined me briefly."I'm fine. How is my baby, doc? Is he fine?" I asked worriedly as I sat up on the bed. He looked at me and smiled.

Chapter 39"Are you sure she'll be fine, Doc?" Miles asked the doctor for the umpteenth time over the phone."Yes, Mr. Miles. All she need is a good rest, and she'll come out strong,""What about the baby? Are you sure the baby is fine also?""You have nothing to worry about. I would've told you if the baby was not fine, so it's nothing to worry about," He breathed out in relief after the doctor assured him."Thank you so much,""Alright. I got to go now," He breathed out again after the call ended, and sank his fingers into his hair while sitting on the edge of the bed. "What happened to her? Was she assaulted by that bastard again?" Even though the doctor already told him earlier that it wasn't an assault, he still thought maybe it was something of such, especially as Oscar escaped and was no longer under his custody.The sound of his ringing phone disrupted his thoughts, and he quickly reached for it and swiped the answer button when he saw that it was Miguel."Shoot!""Man, I'm a

Chapter 40May Walter POVThe sound of the knock on my door from outside caught my attention, and I paused brushing my teeth. I heard the knock a few times before the sound of door opening and closing followed suit. I needed no one to tell me that the person was Miles since he was the only one living here aside from his brother who of course must be at the hospital as usual by this time."Coming..." I found Miles seated on the bed when I walked inside. He stood up and smiled at me."Good morning, wife,""Hmm... Good morning. You are ready for office already? I guess I woke up late," I muttered the last part."How are you feeling now?""I'm much better. Uhm... I'm not going to take much time in the...""You don't have to worry about coming with me to the office today. I got a secretary, and also an assistant, so you can just rest at home since you are not feeling too well," He tucked his hands inside his pockets, looking straight at me."Oh!" I only mouthed, many thoughts flashed throu

Chapter 41May Walter POV"Wife, I made breakfast. You should come to the dining let's eat together," Miles's voice sounded from outside a few minutes after I stepped out of the bathroom."Alright. I'll be there in a couple of minutes,""I'll be waiting," I heard his receding footsteps afterwards, and I presumed he must've gone back.It's been five days since we did the DNA test thing, and we were supposed to get the result today. For the umpteenth time, I picked up my phone and checked to see if my acclaimed Dad had sent me a text, but he didn't. I was grateful he didn't text me all this while just as I had demanded, but I was nervous since the result will be out today."Don't be nervous, May. You'll get over this," I assured myself and took a deep long breath before I walked out of my room and headed to the dining room to join Miles.My mouth salivated as the aroma of food welcomed me downstairs."You're here... Come have a seat," Miles didn't cease to be the sweet husband that alw

Chapter 42May Walter POV'I'm resigning soon, and I need you to take over my companies as the new CEO' Mr. Williams's words played in my head as I stood at the side of the road, waiting for a cab to take me home. Many questions popped up in my head. Why me? Does he not have other kids? How could he trust me when we just met? Just because I'm his daughter doesn't mean that I'll be good to him, don't you think so?'I will have my driver go drop you off' He had offered earlier, but I declined immediately before I left his house. Maybe I should've agreed to it because it's really difficult to get a cab here since it was close to an estate.My phone beeped, and I hesitantly checked to see that it was a text from him.'Hoping to hear from you soon' I rolled my eyes and kept my phone away after I read through the text.My phone vibrated in my my pocket a few minutes later, and I cursed out silently as I reached for it, thinking it was Mr. Williams calling me yet again, but I quickly swiped
