Mia's POVWhen Allen came back with my breakfast, he stayed until I finished eating before leaving. He had gone back to work, so I laid down on my bed, ready to sleep. But then I heard a knock on the door and the person opened it. I thought Allen had left, what was he doing here again? I turned to ask him why he came back again but saw that it was Penelope. She was standing in my room with a wicker basket. I smiled at her as she walked closer to my bed."Pen. It's so good to see you." I moved my legs away from the edge so she could sit there."Yeah, how've you been?" She asked me. I noticed how she carefully placed the basket on my bed. A small colorful cloth was used to cover what was inside it, making me curious. "Well, you know. I've been sleeping and waking up in this lonely house, been bored all day, with no one to talk to. I feel like loneliness will be the cause of my death." I said dramatically. Penelope laughed for a moment, it was the first time I was seeing her laugh. I

Mia's POVMy heart pounded in my chest as I thought of how Allen would feel when he saw the amount we've spent on his phone. The limo was filled up with shopping bags and Kara was ranting about a particular bag she wanted to buy but they didn't have the color she wanted and that after eating, we should go to another mall and see if they have it."Mia, are you even listening?" Kara snapped her fingers in my face to gain my attention. "What are you thinking?""What if the card reaches its limit? We've spent more than two million dollars, Kara!" I freaked out. Saying the total amount made me realize how much we had spent. I bit my nails nervously, 'What will Allen think of me now? He'll think that all I want is his money." "Relax, Mia. I'm sure that amount means nothing to him. It seems you're forgetting that your husband is a billionaire." Kara said. She looked so relaxed and unaffected. She wasn't the one who would face Allen at home.I looked at the shopping bags and shook my head in

Mia's POVI found myself on my bed with Bella curled beside me when I woke up. I stretched myself before getting out of bed and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. The kitchen was empty so I guessed Jerry had gone out to get some supplies for dinner. I passed by Allen's room as I went back to my room. There was no sound coming from his room so I guessed he wasn't around either. I was all alone in this house once again. As I held my door knob, a thought occurred to me. Since I was home alone, I could check out the places I hadn't been to since I got to this house, like Allen's room and the rest of the rooms down the hallway. I checked the time on my phone and saw that it was only five in the evening. He wouldn't be home until eight. I walked towards his room and quietly opened the door."Wow!" I exclaimed as I opened the door. His whole room was painted white, there was a big bed at the center of the room that had over ten pillows on it. I saw a door that was slightly opened

Allen's POVI adjusted myself on my seat as I went through the files that Ian brought to my office earlier. I picked my pen and signed on each of the papers that needed my signature. Work had been hectic ever since I got married. I knew Sophie's parents were behind most of our investors who had been pulling away recently, and I knew exactly what to do to make them regret their actions.I had to leave the house early today even though I wanted to eat breakfast with Mia. I knew that she had been feeling lonely since she was all alone in the penthouse. I wanted to spend more time with her but it seemed like I couldn't control what my body does whenever I was with her. What happened at the gym yesterday night was proof that I had zero control over my body when she was near me. Developing feelings for her would only make things complicated between us, I should probably stay away from her.After signing the papers, I called for Ian and waited for him to arrive. He entered my office a few se

Mia's POVHis tired voice was the key to my undoing. I found myself walking back to the table and I sat with him until he was done eating. I watched as he pushed his chair back and went to the kitchen to drop his empty plate.“How was your day?” He asked as he walked back to the dining room.“Boring and lonely as usual.” I said in a bored tone.A look of guilt flashed across his face, I would have missed it if I had blinked at that moment.“I’m sorry about that, I’ve been really busy at work lately, I would have spent more time with you.” He said as he gestured for us to move towards the living room.“Well, Austin is here now, there’s no need to worry about me being lonely.” I pressed my lips into a thin line as I plopped down on a couch.“About that,” He stood in front of me and dipped his hand into his pocket.“Austin doesn’t know about the contract just like everyone else.”“I know.” I said, wondering where this conversation was heading.“I’m just gonna go straight to the point.
