Chapter 27
NAOMI
Throughout my entire week, my head has been a bit wrapped around roughs and rags.
Our company has been trying to settle its feet with the upcoming collaboration party with the MT beauty empire and as one of its primary predecessors I have been involved with a lot of busy schedules.
And now that the hectic week is over and I have just tonight to get some good night sleep to help me get ready for tomorrow’s dinner party.
I am stuck in the bedrooms watching Circenn trying to strip naked in front of me.
I’ve barely seen him all week. He’s been busy as I am and the twins have spent most of their time with the maids and their babysitter.
And now that the weekend has arrived the first thing he does after coming home after a long day is to walk around shirtless.
Not that I have a problem with it, I’ve seen tons of shirtless men. I guess, but it’s definitely not appropriate.
“When are you going to stop acting like I’m about to give you a heart attack because I don’t have a shirt on! We’re not each other’s type, so a linle sophistication will be nice”
Ciren catches my eyes as I shift my body on the bed.
“Alle sophistication!” I scoff.
He moves, close to the door.
This is how we live.
Bickering like kids every single night.
“We’re not each other’s type that’s why it is ten times o
tis ten times worse. How could you feel if I’m to walk around shirtless.” I shake my head.
He shrugs, his hands searching for something in the drawer opposite our beds.
“How would you feel if I walk around half naked then?” I ask.
He stops and tums to look at me.
“You can go ahead and do so
Foll
my eyes and pull the blanket over my head.
I make sure to remain at the end of the bed because I do not want to wake up and meet him cuddling me my sleep.
It happened once and I’ve tried my best to prevent it.
I’m not a mover when I sleep. So I still don’t understand how I had ended up in his arms that night.
I close my eyes and before I know it, I am alseep,
The morning comes like a breeze and I wake up with the twins by my side, laughing and giggling to whatever I cannot comprehend
I fully open my eyes and look around.
The room is containing just the three of us, and no sign of Circenn
One would think I am ured of him
Maybe I am.
The day is busy enough for me as I had all day to prepa
to prepare for the dinner party.
And when I get ready, I meet the boys playing with their babysitter in their room.
Ar you all Ma’am” Victoria asks,
Chapter 27
Victoria is a woman in her flies and she has been acquainted to the McCain all her life, and so she can be trusted.
As Circen had assure me
“Yes” I nod.
“Do you have to go mom?”
I sigh
Here we go again.
After saying a proper goodbye to my boys. I head downstairs to meet. Asher.
Asher serves as my personal driver and constant escort
According to Circent’s strict instructions, I’m not permitted to venture anywhere without Asher by my side–whether it’s a quick trip to the nearby grocery store or a journey to a foreign country
His presence is mandatory, and I’m not allowed to take a single step outside without him.
Circe’s edict is clear. Asher is my shadow, my protector, and my constant companion.
Ugh
The moment I step foot in this mansion. Well, I’ve had a lot of rules i am supposed to follow lie at the bottom of my feet.
But I don’t mind though, i signed up for these.
“You look dashing Ma’am Asher doesn’t fail to compliment me as he opens the car door
Thank you, I smile
I get in and take a breath.
All I want is for this party to be over. I kind of don’t care if I look haughty or nice.
It’s been a week now, I need my perfect rest
Asher pulls up to the dinner p
party venue as
as the sun se
sun sets over the horizon, and I’m blown away by the ton of cars parked outside.
It’s a real parking lot party, with more luxury rides than I’ve ever seen in one place. Everyone is fancy and I am so glad the party is living up to much time it has taken.
I leave Asher to open the door for me and when I walk out, the first person I see is Maggie.
I am over the room and hurry to give her a hug
it’s been three days since 1 last spoken to her and yet it feels like it’s been years.
And if she thinks I look good she can help herself out with a mirror
We both walk in together and as we do, I notice some paparazzi has been invited and they’re taking a lot of pictures of me
Right
I almost forgot
II married the city’s billionaire weeks:
It is a bit weird and uncomfortable, but I held onto Maggie who laughs our loud and make me pretend I don’t see them.
The dinner has already begun with a lot of socialising.
Men all over the women, the women loving the attention.
The smell of foods and drinks wafts through the air, making in love e
every ne
moment of this party. And the blood and tears put in it
I am about to go for a food table to help myself with wine, when I notice some ladies whispering to themselves and indirectly puung low ands, try
They book flashed and over the inno
Chapter 27
I pause.
I guess I’m quite the muse now since I’m married to Circenn
I look at them again.
No, they’re not pointing
towards me, they’re indirectly pointing to someone behind me.
Just as I am about to turn around and see who could possibly be getting all the spotlights.
I hear a familiar thick voice that makes the earth shakes under my feet
And I’m pretty sure
“Naomi
I’m standing on wood.
1 turn around my eyes hits Charles Dickson, looking far beyond exquisite,
“Charles.” I cough like I have a stuffed toy buried in my throat.
“What are you-
I stop to see people staring and whispering at us.
“Hold on.” He stops my m
my movement as his hands slowly reach for a strand of hair on my face and he slowly tucks it behind my car.
And at the moment. I can swear I can hear pass
