Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands - Chapter 86

86 Plan for a Date

Then his arms released me, and it was like nothing had happened at all just now.

“You, too. Goodnight,” I replied before I closed the car’s door.

Stepping a few steps away, I waved at him as I watched his car drive off into the distance.

Alone in bed that night, my mind was occupied with thoughts of Adrian and what had happened between us. I truly did not expect him to kiss me and definitely not the way that he kissed me…so deeply and so passionately. The words of gossip from those women that I ran into earlier in the day in the women’s bathroom came drifting back into my mind.

‘He’s famous for sleeping around with all the young and pretty nurses. None of them ever last long…’

Have I somehow ended up with a playboy doctor on my list of clients now? Well, we’ll see sooner or later how it goes. At least if I jump on the pill, I won’t get pregnant with his child…

Wait, what am I even thinking? The contract has a clause prohibiting sexual activity and I’m going to keep it that way. Period.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, I did not experience a repeat of the nightmare about my parent’s suicide because my mind was too shocked with all that had happened with Adrian and too preoccupied trying to figure him out. That night, I slept quite well, and perhaps, I had Adrian and his distracting kisses to thank.

…

…..

I woke up the next morning feeling much more alive than before and that was thanks to a night of nightmare-free sleep. My hand reached for my phone to see if Justin had any update for me regarding my work schedule or client demands. My eyes still felt heavy from sleep as I grabbed my phone in my hand and held it in front of my face.

‘I’ve already informed EROS’s agency about your desire to terminate the contract. So far, there has been no official response. I’ll update you if anything happens,’

That was the message that Justin sent. I wondered how EROS would take the news but after second thought, I guessed that he probably wouldn’t even care about it. After all, this whole fake girlfriend thing was something that his manager and agency came up with. EROS was against the idea from the start so it must be a huge relief for him now that I’m gone. It’s probably best for both of us, so the decision that I made to terminate the contract was probably the right one.

It was still early in the morning, but I decided to get out of bed to prepare myself for the day ahead. Today, I’ll be working with Brandon and that meant that it probably won’t be an easy day. Lately, none of my days had been easy ones. The clients are truly getting their money’s worth out of me, I thought as I stared at my face in the mirror closely. Great, at least my panda eyes are pretty much gone now, and I can save up on some concealer.

**ring ring ring**

My phone’s ringtone caught my attention, and my hand instinctively grabbed the phone and answered it.

“Good morning, Elena,” a man’s smooth voice said through the phone.

Adrian…he’s calling so early in the morning.

“Adrian, good morning,” I replied as I wondered what he wanted.

“Sorry for calling so early in the morning. Hopefully, I didn’t wake you…” Adrian said, sounding apologetic.

“No, not at all. I’m already up…” I quickly replied.

“I see…so you get up pretty early. You don’t seem like a morning person though,” Adrian said, sounding thoughtful.

“You’re right, I’m not a morning person but I have to prepare for work…so yea…” I replied with a soft laugh.

Why is he calling?

“Sorry for taking up your time then. About what you promised Millie…about going to the zoo, would this Saturday work out for you?” Adrian asked, sounding very hopeful.

I could get Justin to shift things around if I had anything on Saturday but as far as I was aware, I didn’t have any prior engagements so I should be free.

“Sure, I think it should work. Is Millie looking forward to it?” I asked, smiling a little to myself as I thought of the little girl being excited about going to the zoo with her father.

“I’m not sure about Millie but I’m looking forward to it…” Adrian said straight forwardly.

His directness made me feel slight embarrassed even though we’re not talking face-to-face. I had no idea if the rumors about him were true or not but I was beginning to understand why women feel so affected by him.

“You’re so funny. I’ll see you on Saturday then. Let me work out some plan and send it to you…like a business proposal…” I suggested.

“Let’s call it our date plan,” he replied with a laugh.

“Ok. I’ll see you then. Have a good day at work,” I replied in a light tone.

“You, too. Please take care of yourself,” Adrian replied, and I hung up.

A date at the zoo with Adrian and his daughter, I wonder how that’s going to turn out…

…

During my drive to Brandon’s office, it felt like something was off, but I wasn’t sure what it was. When I step foot into the lobby of his office building, I realized that the nagging feeling at the back of my mind was because Brandon hadn’t given me a call to nag about where I was. After entering the lobby and looking around, I was even more bothered by the fact that I couldn’t spot him anywhere. Usually, he would call to nag me to make sure that I would be on time, and he would be waiting for me here. I was right, something felt very strange.

In Brandon’s place, a tall lanky middle-aged man approached me instead. He was dressed elegantly in a suit and had moved with grace. I have never seen him before, but it was clear that he had been waiting for me.
