THE CONTRACT WIFE: A ONE NIGHT STAND BILLIONAIRE ROMANCE

Nick’s POV

ANGER, that’s what I’m feeling right now. It’s like a burning log that can’t be removed from me. Fuck! They took Zara away from me again. I only found out about it from Eugenie, so I hurriedly came back to the island. I am greeted by Eugenie, who is crying.

“Didn’t I tell you, Eugenie, to immediately call my people there when there are suspicious individuals? What’s that! What kind of negligence is that!?” I shout at Eugenie with intense frustration and anger! Everything I’ve worked for is going to go to waste again.

Fuck it! Fuck it!Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Lucas! Yup! That son of a devil! He’s the only one who could have done this! But how did he find our hiding place? How!

Then I remembered Giselle’s sudden disappearance! That fucking bitch betrayed me!

I feel like I’m going crazy, losing my mind! I can’t accept this! NO! NO, I WON’T LET THIS HAPPEN!

I can’t believe Eugenie is looking at me.

“Are you yelling at me, young master? I am Eugenie, the one who raised you! And now you’re acting like this because of a married woman you stole!” Eugenie says, which silences me.

But my mind and heart remain closed. Because all I know is that Zara is mine.

“Eugenie, she’s mine. She’s mine alone, Eugenie, and if I have to do everything! If I have to make mistakes again. I’ll do it, Eugenie!” I shout, crying and losing control.

“You’re losing it, my child! You’re going insane with what you’re saying! I’ve warned you that this won’t last! There will come a day when the fire you started will turn to smoke. I’ve warned you, but what? You ignored it!”

I fell silent, and Eugenie left me, planning to leave too. Everyone’s leaving! Everyone is leaving me! Everyone! Everyone! Damn it, I just need her to stay for me, but why! I gave everything!

I cried while looking at my cellphone. Zara is with me, the woman I will love deeply.

I will take her back in any way possible.

SOMEONE called me last night. I woke up with empty alcohol bottles on the floor and beside my bed. I’m a mess, sleepless, and tired. Too tired of thinking about how to get her back.

Because no matter what they say, Zara is mine! And that won’t change just because she’s married to a fucking bastard and has his own child.

So I want to get her back. And I have this dark idea. Even though, you know, it might not be approved by everyone. I know I’m going to add to my sins. I know that we might feel guilty.

But I don’t care. I love Zara so much that I’ve lost control of myself.

And last night, I received a call from Enrique. I woke up with beer bottles on the floor and around my bed. I’m a mess, sleep-deprived, and exhausted. Too exhausted from thinking about how to get her back.

Because no matter what they say, Zara is mine! And that won’t change just because she’s married to a fucking bastard and has his own child.

So I want to get her back. And I have this dark idea. Even though, you know, it might not be approved by everyone. I know I’m going to add to my sins. I know that we might feel guilty.

But I don’t care. I love Zara so much that I’ve lost control of myself.

And last night, I received a call from Enrique. It made me confirm that Lucas has Zara for a month. I feel like I’m going back to hell for another month.

But now? I’m going to take her back. Fuck! I won’t let him have his way again. I’m just taking back what’s rightfully mine.

As I remember last night, Enrique called me around 8 pm. I was still sober and not totally drunk. So I was conscious at that time.

“Hello, Uncle Nick?” my godchild greeted me cheerfully.

“Yes, Kiddo?” I replied while looking into nothingness.

“I have some news for you. It’s late, but I wanted to tell you that Mom is back! She’s here with us again, Uncle!” he said happily.

That’s when I confirmed what would happen. I confirmed that Lucas is the reason for all of this. I felt so down and depressed because of this situation.

I gambled, wasted too much time and effort. I bet my dignity, my everything just to have her. And that motherfucking Lucas snatched my greatest possession instantly?! Damn it, I waited so long, and he takes her away from me just like that? I can’t accept it!

I’m not the type of man who surrenders easily. She was mine first. I was the first one to love her! I was the one who was always by her side. It’s me! But why wasn’t I the one she chose!

So a plan started forming in my mind. It might be the craziest and most evil thing I’ll ever do. This is my last chance and my last attempt. I just want to end my pain.

I want Zara back. And if I have to lose everything all at once, I will do it.

“Is that so, Kiddo? Can you do me a favor?” I asked him on the other line.

“What is it, Uncle?” he responded.

“Let’s meet up tomorrow morning. No bodyguards or drivers, right? You know how to commute. I just want you to help me plan a welcome party for your mom. So don’t tell anyone else about this. Just between us, okay?” I said, trying to be as convincing as possible.

Yeah, that’s my plan. I have to fake a kidnapping, and the ransom I’ll demand is Zara. It sounds messed up, but who the hell cares.

If I need to do this as a last resort? I would do it just to have her. We’ll be far away, and she’ll learn to love me. Because I can’t unlove her. She was meant to be mine from the beginning.

It’s a long shot, but what do they care? They don’t understand what I’m feeling and deciding. People don’t know my pain. The scars and wounds I’ve acquired from overthinking. Inside, I’m a man deeply wounded.

So what happened was I took a shower. Got ready and hired a few of my men. Because something big is about to happen. I know it’s wrong. I know that, but for her, I’ll do it.

I’m willing to be a sinner just for her. That’s how crazy I am for you, Zara! But damn it, can’t you see that!

I shaved my beard, put on something presentable before meeting my godchild.

I’ll apologize to him in advance. He’ll be the key to accomplishing my mission. I’m sorry, but I really need to do this. Or it will destroy me. Not having her might destroy me even more deeply.

I met Enrique in my condo. He looks happy, but I’ll apologize because that happiness won’t last for long. I have to do this.

“Uncle! Bless…” he began and bowed to me.

I can feel the guilt and conscience. But there’s nothing I can do about it. The system has consumed me.

I slowly took a handkerchief from my pocket, with a sedative.

I quickly covered my nose and mouth with it and handed one to my godchild. I saw the pain of betrayal in his eyes.

I’m so sorry… Sorry.
