She has plans, he can't just marry anyone and ruin her plan. He will marry his rumored fiancée whether he wants it or not.
Nathan's eyes darkened, he had heard enough of her rubbish. "Leave!" he glared at her with eyes filled with malice.
"Just you watch!" She said, then walked out of his office.
Nathan turned towards the window again, his mind remembering her.
Emily was Nathan's close friend from high school, he loved as a sister but not romantically. Both parents agreed to marry them off when they reach the legal age for marriage.
Enily wanted to become a model, she had to starve herself to get her dream body. After getting her first model contract thanks to Nathan's help, she began to take the limelight.
After college she told her parents that she doesn't want to marry now, till she makes a name for herself all over the world.
Technically Nathan wasn't against it because he knew the marriage won't work out.
Nathan's mother wasn't satisfied with her idea, then went ahead to announce their engagement to the press, while they wait for her to return.
...
When Nathan returned home, he walked into his room. The light was on, casting a glow over unfamiliar things in the room. The desk had additional books.
Then, he heard the sound of the shower and he frowned.
He moved closer to the bed, his gaze met the familiar pink gown. "Nina? Are you inside?"
The sound of the shower was loud, while Nina soaked herself into the bath, one leg raised , her eyes closed inhaling the rosy scent.
He walked towards the bathroom, her silhouette visible through the frosted glass.
Nathan knocked, a quick clink on the door, then again, louder.
He quickly opened the door, a knot of fear tightening in his chest.
"Ahhh…." Nina shouted at the intruder, her hands and legs crossed beneath the water, covering her upper upper and lower body.
Nathan's foot froze and he shouted., "Are you okay?" His hand still held onto the handle.
"Nathan!?" She asked, to be sure he was the one,while she grabbed her towel and wrapped it around her body.
Ava calling out his name confirmed she was okay. Nathan walked back to the desk, leaning his back against the chair.
His eyes darkened. After confirming she was okay, his eyes turned cloudy. He needed an explanation from her.
After a few minutes, Ava walked out of the bedroom, her hands tightly clutching the towel, her hair tied upward.
She held her pink nightgown and glanced at him. His eyes were unreadable as he met her gaze, watching her every move. She slowly walked toward the closet, as her head turned sideways, her cheeks burning.
She returned, her arms behind her gown, while her gaze still focused on the floor while she tiptoed quietly close to the bed.
The room was filled with silence, only the tiptoes could be heard as Nathan closed his eyes trying to control himself, he suddenly broke the silence.
" What are you doing in my room?" He asked, his back leaned against the bed.
"•….•" Uhmm..
"Granny said we should make babies right? She asked, her voice low. "Besides, cockroaches are in my room, I am afraid to sleep alone."
He gently opened his eyes, the corner of his lips curved. "Then call the maid or butler to kill them." He replied, his hands resting on his thigh.
"Now leave my room."
She couldn't let the opportunity slip her hands, she quickly pulled the blanket up and as she lay on the bed facing her back at him, pretending to doze off.
Nathan was so tired he couldn't stress himself further. He left the bathroom to freshen up. After he was done he grabbed the blanket and pillow, went to the couch and lay down quickly shutting his eyes to sleep.
Ava woke up, her eyes scanned the room, but there was nobody there.
After freshening up, she headed downstairs, drawn by the aroma of the meal. Nathan leaning towards the dinner chair, wearing a natural nude color suit, holding a fork gently slicing the meat steak.
Ava took the seat across from Nathan. Silence filled the air, broken only by the sound of forks moving.
The maid felt the awkward tension between the couple and smiled, shaking her head.
After Nathan finished his meal, he was the first to break the silence, "If you want to sleep with me, just cancel your plans and leave my room before I return from work."
Ava sighed, gradually dropping her fork. " I am not going anywhere, either you let me stay in your precious room…" She dragged out the last part with a smile "Or let Granny know we are not giving her a baby soon." she mischievously smirked.
Nathan frowned, because he doesn't know what was going through this lady's head lately. "So much to get a dick inside you," he murmured.
"Suit yourself!" he suddenly said with a smile. He wants to see how far she would go just to have sex with him.
Ava was taken back by the smile and his sudden mood change, she couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over her skin. She knew Nathan's words were meant to provoke her, to test her boundaries.
But she didn't care, she would use all her power and get what she wanted.
Her gaze locked into Nathan, a silent challenge in her eyes, staring at him with her newfound determination.
"Maybe I do want to sleep with you," she whispered softly, a sly smile played on her lips as she watched his reaction.
Nathan's eyes widened slightly, surprised by her response.
"Nailed it," Ava thought, mentally patting herself on the back. Satisfied by his reaction, he's not ready for what's coming.
"Don't fall in love with him. Well if you do, I won't blame you. Just don't forget how hot he is." Her inner voice warned.
"I don't think love exists anymore," she murmured.
What's the point of dreaming of a love life when I'm already married for revenge?" She asked her inner voice.
"I will never love Nathan, he's not my type!" She repeated the words in her head, convincing herself.
