Arranged Marriage With The Billionaire

Blair felt much better after her conversation with Jessica. She had been worried thinking Jessica would be really angry with her and after finding out about everything, she wouldn’t want to be friends with her anymore, and although she had been really angry with her, but she reminded Blair that there were people who would always have her bag and support her. After that Blair had cried for a really long time, soaking Jessica’s fabric with her tears, while Jessica patted her till she stopped.

“If you need help, anytime. You know where you can find me right?”

“Yeah, I have your new address.” After that Jessica left and Blair was back home.

Blair decided to call Samantha after that, she didn’t answer at first, but Blair dialled her number again, this time she did. “Hey Blair, how are you doing?”

“I’m fine. Jessica just left here, she said you told her to check up on me… and also quite a number of other things.”

When Dylan arrived, Blair was still up, watching a soap opera while sipping on a cup of warm milk Donna had offered to her before she went up to bed. She ignored the look he sent her way, not moving her eyes from the screen, hoping he would leave without speaking to her. She was happy that she was able to have a quick shower right before Dylan arrived, she couldn’t go to bed without bathing. Blair had decided that would be her everyday routine, have a bath after Dylan left, and another one before he arrived. She took note of the time he came back, for the next day.

He walked away, making Blair let out a sigh of relief, she had been sure that Dylan was going to approach her. Like he could read her thoughts, he came to the room. “Bella, shouldn’t you be in bed at this hour?” He asked, loosening his tie.

She didn’t still look at him, hoping that if she didn’t say anything he would still leave. But it didn’t seem like that was what he had in mind, as he came and stood before her. So she said, “I’m not a child. I go to bed whenever I want to.”

He kept quiet for awhile, watching her. Then his eyes landed on the duvet and pillows beside her. “Where do you plan on sleeping this night?”

She frowned. “Well since you’ve decided to be childish by locking up all the room doors, I have also decided to be childish. I’m going to sleep here. In that way, I won’t disturb you, I won’t disturb Donna and no one should disturb me.”

He scoffed rolling his eyes like that was the most ridiculous thing he has ever heard. “You can’t sleep here, not because I care, because I don’t want Donna asking me why my newly wedded wife isn’t with me in bed.”

“Well, since you have refused to give me another room and I do not plan on laying my head next to you, I would rather sleep here. Let Donna-Hey! Don’t touch me, what are you-put me down this instant!” She hit his chest as he carried her up from the couch, and started walking out of the room. “Let go of me you bully!”

“I didn’t ask for a wife, but I got one. Sorry, but you don’t exactly decide what you want. We are sleeping together and that’s final.”

“You don’t even like me!” Blair said between angry puffs. “Why would you want me beside you?”

“Hey, I don’t like you doesn’t mean you can’t offer your husband some comfort… I mean you are annoying, but not incapable of offering warmth.” Her eyes widened in disbelief. “Calm down, I’m not going to lay my hands on you.”

“You are sick, put me down,” she said, but they were already entering the room. He kicked the door shut behind them, walking with fast strides, he dropped her on the bed.

“Stay.” He commanded when he saw she was about to get up.

“I’m not a dog, you can’t tell me what to do!” She yelled through she stayed put, still breathing heavy though. She wanted to fight him and run out but she doubted he would let her.

“You’re right, you are not a dog, you’re just stubborn. I mean no wonder your ex left you, you must have driven the poor guy to insanity.”

Blair stilled when she heard those words. “Don’t mention my ex again,” she told him. “You don’t know anything about him or me, you don’t know anything of what happened, so don’t bring him into this.”

“Why…” He stopped when he noticed the look on br face. Dylan didn’t know much about Blair’s ex and he had just learned about him from his mother. “I’m sorry,” he apologized.

Now, it was Blair’s turn to be surprised. She had never heard Dylan saying those words and didn’t think it was possible for him to direct that to her. “What?” She asked, but he didn’t give a reply, instead he turned to walk out. “Dylan, I’m taking to you!”

“Just sleep Blair, forget I said anything about your ex.” He walked out of the room.

“How exactly how I meant to forget?” She asked. “Just because you tell me to, doesn’t mean I would at the snap of a finger,” she said to the quiet room. “Asshole!” She shouted, but her voice was choked and she was sure he probably didn’t hear her.

She didn’t plan on sleeping on the bed with him. “You have another thing coming if you think that’s going to happen,” she muttered as she took a pillow from the bed, going to the coach sitter beside the wall near the wardrobe and collapsed on it. She felt cold, but she didn’t have any blanket and while usually she liked to sleep in her underwear, she couldn’t exactly take them off when she knew Dylan would be coming back to the room too.

She didn’t open her eyes when she heard the door opening again, she didn’t need to look before she knew it was Dylan. He kept still as he walked round the room, letting out a frustrated groan every now and then. She was tempted to open her eyes and see what he was doing, but the lights were still on and she didn’t want him to see she was still awake.

“I know you’re awake Blair.” Her eyes opened the moment he said that. “You don’t have to pretend to be asleep, I’m not going to kill you.”

“We don’t know that and also, you can have your bed. I’ll sleep here on the couch.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Don’t be crazy. You think I carried you all the way up here for us to sleep separately?”

“Stop it. You can’t force me to sleep on the bed with you-”

“Well you can’t sleep there… just come sleep on the bed Blair. You are going to get cold.” She didn’t pay him any attention. “Blair, come to the bed.

“No, thank you. I don’t want you close to me. You shouldn’t bother about me and just go to bed. You have a place to be tomorrow right? You should probably go sleep then and let me rest.”

“You know what, I don’t even care anymore, you do want you want.”

“I will!”
