Chapter 5

  • Taylor Portwalt
  • My head hurted a lot, I walked into my office lifeless. I'm tired, stressed and not to mention I'm on my period. It made everything worse than usual.
  • I sat down on my chair and turned my laptop on. I started to check my emails for new orders before going to work and make my design again. 3 new emails and yes 4 orders.
  • I walked out from my office to continue my work. I'm a designer and usually I design dresses. I'm an expert in making dresses. Thank God for that talent
  • "Ms. Portwalt, there's an invitation for you to attend the Lotensel's fashion show in New York for 3 days" My secretary said
  • "Lontensel?" I asked and she gave me the invitation. I opened it and looked at the details
  • "Am I free that date?"
  • "Yes Ms. Portwalt. There's only a deadline 3 days after that fashion show" She said and I nodded
  • "Call them and tell them that I accept the invitation" I gave her the invitation back and I went back to designing this white formal dress
  • "When will the new materials come?" I asked my employees
  • "Today, miss, it should arrive now or in one hour" Tiana said and I nodded. I continued to do my work when suddenly my secretary came to me
  • "Ms. Portwalt, there's someone who's looking for you"
  • "Just let them in, please prepare my meeting room" I said since it must be a new client anyway. I put my stuff down and get ready to meet the new client
  • "Hi Taylor" I froze when I heard that voice, I slowly turned my body. I looked at Christian in horror
  • "What are you doing here?" I asked in horror, he waved to my employee causing them to squealed
  • "I miss my future-wife, is that a crime?" My eyes widen and I took his arm and dragged him to my meeting room
  • "What did you just say?" I asked
  • "Future wife" He said slowly making me piss
  • "Future wife? What are you nuts?" I bursted and put my hands on my waist
  • "You asked me to marry you" He smirked
  • "When? You crazy idiot"
  • "Oh come on Taylor, we shared one night. It's fine if you want to share another night with me" Huh?!
  • "Stop saying about spending the night Christian! I never spend a night with you and you're crazy for saying that again and again" I bursted at him and he looked at me raising his eyebrows
  • "You were asking to take responsibility yesterday"
  • "What? I never-" My eyes widened when I remembered that I was drunk yesterday. I ran out from the meeting room to my office, I opened my phone and looked at the call history
  • "Shit!" I saw Christian's name on the top of my call history
  • "Oh shit.. What did I say yesterday? What did I do? What have I done?" I walked around my office and cursed myself. I walked back to the meeting room pouting, Christian looked at me with full amusement in his eyes
  • "What did I say yesterday?"
  • "You asked me to marry you today" He said and I shook my head
  • "I will never said that Christian, you made this up just to-"
  • "Need to prove?" Christian cut me
  • "What proves?" He took his phone out and played something from his phone
  • "So what do you want me to do?" I heard Christian's voice asking me
  • "Take responsibility" My eyes widen when I heard my own voice crying and I sighed
  • "Like what?"
  • "Marry me!" Oh shit!
  • "Okay let's get married" I heard Christian said and I stopped crying in that recording
  • "Really?" I asked stupidly
  • "Yeah, when? Tomorrow?" Christian asked
  • "Really?" I can't believe I called him yesterday in my drunkest moment
  • "Yes Taylor" Christian shut the recording and out his phone on the table
  • "That was you right?" Christian asked and I sat across him because my legs went weak
  • "I'm sorry" I looked at him sadly
  • "Well you made me come to LA"
  • "Why bother to come here you jerk? You can ignore it"
  • "Why do you keep denying about 2 years ago?" He asked and I sighed
  • "Because I was scared" I said honestly because Christian already caught me
  • "For 21 years, I have never dated someone. Guys find me attractive but once they got me, they let me go. For them the process getting my heart was the hardest" I leaned back to my seat and sighed
  • "That's why when I knew about it, I shut myself from guys. Until I decided when I turn 21, I wanted to get drunk so hard but I ended up did that with you" I said not daring to look at him
  • "I was scared, after that night I was scared of a lot of things. What if I'm pregnant? What if now guys don't want me because I'm not a virgin anymore?"
  • "This is a modern century, do you think guys will still care if you have or don't have your V card?" Christian asked and I turned to him
  • "I'm not you who has that mindset Christian, I want my love life to be perfect. I want to keep my most precious jewel to someone I love until I get married. I'm not like you who think girls just a decoration or just for fun" I said coldly and he scoffed
  • "Since I took that from you, do you still want to marry me? Cause I don't want to settle down right now" He stated coldly too
  • "Can we just erase this memory? Does an act like this never happen? You don't want this and I don't want this. Seeing you again made me crazy, because for me 2 years ago was a big mistake for me. Sleeping with my own enemy" I said coldly to him and emphasized the last sentence
  • "It's just a one night stand" I said and he looked at me with hurtful eyes
  • "It was a mistake but I never thought it was a mistake Taylor or just a one night stand" That got me hard, I gulped nervously when he said that. He looked at me straight in the eyes
  • "You know that we were drunk and sober enough to know who we were sleeping with. You let me at that time"
  • "Then why didn't you stop before we went too far?" I asked angrily
  • "Because you and I both it was different" That got my breath hitch
  • He was right, that night was different
