Just One Kiss Before Divorcing Me (Martin and Calvin) novel Chapter 89

Wil

Calvin appeared to be sitting comfortably and relaxed in that chair over here as he and Liam worked on putting that contract together. He’d given it to Calvin and watched the man not only read it, but also sign it without issue. He didn’t arc up at any of the clauses, not even the ones that Wil himself had put in there, to

help contain the man.

They were now just waiting for Marilyn to sign the contract as well. He had let Liam sneak in a few loopholes at the end of that contact. It would likely give Marilyn a feeling of having some choices which he did want for her. She, he knew, also dealt with contracts all the time for her career, and Marrin also had as well. Both

sides of her would understand that last clause.

So, now it was just a waiting game, and as long as Calvin could stay put and didn’t do anything to ruin this, breaking the contract. Then Calvin was actually going to get everything he wanted, that being Marilyn back in his life, so that he could work on showing her that he was a man she needed to be afraid of.

That he could and would be a good father to the twins as well, all things Marilyn herself needed to know and see in all likelihood. Though Wil did know that if nothing went wrong from this point forward, Calvin would be trying to engage with Marilyn himself, in an effort to see her come to like him, with a view to falling in love with him, as Marrin once had done.

He’d seen that Calvin was over there just watching that app, as they sat on the plane to go back home to Houston. “It’s not going to move, Calvin. It’s going to sit inside that house and never go anywhere. You do realise that, yes?” he asked.

“I do,” Calvin nodded. “I’m curious is all,” he commented, and put his phone away.

“Curious about?” Wil asked and hoped it wouldn’t turn into something else already.

“If she’s given it to the twins yet?” Calvin stated simply.

Wil glanced at his watch. “They might not even be home yet. They could have an after-school sport to attend to.” He knew a lot of kids had that, helping keep them supervised until full–time working parents could get off work and pick them up.

Calvin half laughed. “I doubt that very much.”

“Why?” Wil asked right back.

“I hated sport and Marrin was a computer nerd as much as I was. Neither of us were into sport,” Calvin

smiled at him.

“That doesn’t mean anything. They could well grow up to be jocks, love football or basketball, ice hockey for all you know.” He smiled at his friend, knowing that would annoy him.

“Don’t you bloody swear at me, Wil.” Calvin muttered as the plane raced down the runway to take off. “Brains before Brawn.”

Wil laughed now, “You know Calvin, those two boys didn’t grow up within a household with two brainiacs for

the parents, not even one. But with an author that is creative and expressive, and probably likes adventuring out into the outdoors…” he couldn’t help but annoy the man “Hiking, biking, camping, all things that will get

creative juices flowing, you could well find they are athletes not brainiacs.

“Keep swearing at me, and I’ll start praying your kids will be just like me.” Calvin smirked at him now.

“Ah, you’re not so bad, quite funny and charming when you’re in a good mood, and you as a child and teen, quiet, locked away in your room or the computer labs, no outlay for a kid like you, and as a grown up before well you know… You hardly ever got mad about anything, didn’t care about anything but your company, and then when married to Marrin you smiled and laughed and became way more sociable. A kid like that, easy

any

“Yeah right.” Calvin shook his head and rolled his eyes. “Do you know how of those jocks at school

weren’t nice to me?”

“Yes, and I also know just how many of them see you now and regret that fact.” Wil laughed softly. It was true when he’d made his first million those that hadn’t been nice in school had tried to become close to him. Calvin wasn’t interested though. And when he’d made a billion, they were all trying to play the come on, we went to high school together card ‘we’re buddies‘.

To which Calvin had stared at them and stated “Really buddies? Didn’t you push me around and trip me over more than once.” Stated something that reminded them they weren’t buddies. Some of them he’d just told in no uncertain terms to “f**k off you’re a bully.” And had walked away from them. He knew who was his friend and who wasn’t, who was out to get his money only even back then.

Marrin had been an investment for Calvin in the beginning, because people said he wasn’t personable, and the man wasn’t, though having Marrin on his arm had changed that, and even though Wil knew Calvin had never seen himself ever falling in love and having a family, he’d liked Marrin she was actually quite a bit like Calvin, and suffered growing up. Things they’d learned about each other in that three weeks prior to their

Wil had always hoped that Calvin wouldn’t let her go, would see her the way everyone around him did and fall for the woman. She’d been Calvin’s choice, though they’d both been looking for a woman to fit the bill of his

wife for nearly a year before Marrin came along. Dealing with her while sorting out the terms of her company’s take–over had seen Calvin find her to be a pretty like–minded woman and that had been the

“Yes, now you just have to contain yourself and behave for two and a half months. It’s not that long,” Wil stated. “I also didn’t see her get dizzy even once today. Maybe things are improving on her end as well.”

”

Wil didn’t know about that, but he had noticed something else during the course of that meeting. She’d not once called him William, and had the entire time referred to him as Wil when addressing him. Which was something that Marrin had done.

He wondered now, as he thought about that, if she had regained some of her memories and, if so, which ones, and just what had triggered them? He’d not gotten an answer from Liam about whether Marilyn had watched what was on the USB. He couldn’t due to Calvin sitting right there at the table and still knew nothing
