He left after, saying that his good for nothing deal is still on, I resisted myself to roll my eyes at him at that moment, Although I thought that this trip is a break from everything that is happening in my life from past few months, now I realized that this trip is like a bait which is drawing me in his trapped created for me. Janette thought while waiting for the sleep hangover to fade.
When she was sure that she's back to her senses that she is fully awake, she got up not before wrapping a duvet around her half-naked body, she waited for her husband to return from the closest, which she assumes to be one because he walked in a towel inside it while sitting on the Royal Blue couch near the closest door, she decided to check her phone which was switched off, No message she sighed, if it had been her old life, it'd have been filled with messages from her mom, Ana, and her brother Tom, she sighed and kept that phone aside, "I feel trapped here" she whispered and closed her eyes while resting her head at the couch.
It took exactly half an hour for Asher, to come out of the closet, she instantly stood up find him standing all fresh and handsome with his hands inside his royal blue suit pocket, he always wears an expensive watch and sometimes a tie today that tie was absent, She couldn't help but remember the incident that happened yesterday she offered to help him wearing that tie and the incident, followed by it, she instantly felt a blush crept upon her cheeks. Janette was lost in her thoughts about him but he furrowed his eyebrows at her and shook her.
"On Earth Jane!" he brought her out of her thoughts"Are you deaf! Mrs Norman," he mumbled in his heartwarming voice, making her flatter. "Jane! he's mocking at you!" her inner self brought her to reality. "It's the fifth time that I called your name." He told her and she shook her head.
"Sorry, What do you want?" she asked in turn, he gave her a disapproving look, he picked up a paper bag from the chair and threw it, "Wear this for today because we are having breakfast with investors and they're eager to meet you ." He mumbled, with his hands in his pocket, before speaking anything she took a glance at the dress, it was gorgeous sleeveless, pink dress reaching her knees. "What's the need of it?" she couldn't help but ask. He pressed his lips in a thin line and took a glance at her with his gorgeous ocean blue eyes. Whenever she finds something attractive about him the very next movement he says or do something to enter her bad books. "You need to look presentable in front of them, I am sure that wouldn't be possible in the inexpensive ones you wear," he muttered and she threw a pillow at him, but it hit the door instead of him.
"You can't deny that fact." he again mocked her but this time she tried her best to ignore him, and made her way towards the bathroom.
...
After doing her morning businesses and grabbing a relaxing shower, she wore the dress brought by her husband, it hung her every curve faultlessly, she let her hairs down and applied pink lipstick and mascara.
But the thought that he didn't find her clothes attractive was a stick in her mind, in her friend circle, everyone asks her to choose the clothes for them because she'd a great taste but this guy, is opposite.
"It's not like I want him to like my clothes but why this is bothering me so much?" a soft knock at the door brought her out of her thoughts."Are you ready?" it was him. Instead of replying, I took a last glance at myself in the mirror and opened the door, he was standing with his tie in his hands, I resisted myself to smile at his cuteness, I just don't know why I found his action cute.
Before he'd say anything, I took the tie from him and wore my heels to match up to his height, neither he spoke anything nor I, for which she was thankful for.
Although without a tie to he looks handsome but with it, he looks influential, I distance myself from him to avoid the same thing that happened yesterday, he cleared his throat and motioned me to follow him, but not before whispering in my ear that "Don't mess anything up." I nodded inturn because I don't have any other option left but to obey him, "For some time."I sighed and followed him the way to the restaurant would have been beautiful if, Asher's hand wouldn't hand been on my wrist and we were not surrounded by people who had different reactions watching us.
Of all the men in the world, why just why I'm fated to marry him. Janette wondered but not before internally rolling her eyes. The men at the door wished both of us ushering us inside.
The interior of the place was awe, it was a beautiful place, with red tiles and curtains, with white ceiling and textures on walls, and flower pots.
"Listen, to me very carefully, Janette." Asher's husky voice brought her out of her thoughts, he was looking very sexy here." What?" she replied while trying to control her voice.
"Don't speak anything more than required, because they are the most important client of mines and if they got the slightest idea about our marriage than be ready for the punishment following."He spoke and by the tone of his voice she can make out that he wasn't kidding, she gulped and nodded.
" Good Girl!" he smirked and put his hand on her exposed back, making her shiver. "Come On!" he dragged her with him."He's so dominating."
"Hello, Mr Norman!" A handsome man who appeared to be in his late twenties stood up and shook his hands with Asher, "Mr Parker".
But Janette was left thunderstruck by glancing at the very familiar woman beside him.
"Meet my fiancee Mr Norman." The man said "Anastasia Rogers " Janette's eyes grew wide, grabbing Anastasia's attention whose eyes were previously fixed on her phone.
She stood up with a dumbfounded expression"Janette!"
"Ana"
