He grinned at her false bravado, her green eyes flickered and the golden shades of it were more intense, he saw determination, which he could use to his advantage.

"Unless you wish to buy it back, it's worth over a million dollars"

Keira hesitated, where was she going to find a million dollars? With Sam's college fund and their welfare, those were out of the question. Their trust fund obtained from their deceased parents had been kept for emergencies only, it wasn't even close to half a million.

His grey eyes mocked her with a sardonic smile that left her stomach in knots. This was the most inconvenient time to think about how overpowering his steely eyes were or the fact that he was a very gorgeous and fascinating specimen.

"I have a proposal for you, that could turn this around."

The CEO's Meticulous Bride

 Sam plonked beside her and they squabbled with their fingers when the couch flopped over and recoiled, Keira shushed her.


"Are you okay, is Darby giving you any trouble? Is he giving Sam any trouble...just checking" She laughed, anxious. 


Darby was keen, he crawled over from listening to his mom's voice on the loudspeaker. He cooed.


"Is that you baby?" Her voice was filled with excitement. He giggled holding on to the phone, imitating Keira, the sisters exchanged glances.


"Jen, you can always take him home if you want," Keira said and Sam pouted her lip.


"I don't know, I'm having mixed feelings here but it's all good" She paused "I'm coming to get him"


"Gosh, 10 am_ make it noon, I miss him so much, it's been tedious in the house lately." she babbled.


"Mommy loves you" Jenny cooed and cut the phone.


Sam sighed audibly and stood up, she might as well make ready his stuff before she arrives, the clock struck 9:45 am, putting off decorating.


Keira watched Darby in his grey bunny rabbit onesie play with his ball, it bounced off his head and he appeared stupefied crawling after it when it rolled away.


 There was a knock on the door, Jenny walked in wearing a black woolen jacket with flayed collars, white best, and snazzy black pants, she looked resplendent and pampered, her eyebags had reduced. 


She did a 180 and a shimmy dance "I slept for 12 hours straight" She babbled, Darby plodded toward her bawling, they laughed when Jenny showered him with kisses.


"He's never looked any happier, thank you"


She held thee back of his head. The doorbell rang and they turned


The door opened and a dog scampered in, Keira looked stunned when it settled on her carpet surveying the house.


Jenny's jaw dropped, she would have dropped Darby if she wasn't so alert when he walked in wearing a black coat with a scarf around his neck.


"Oh my god" she exclaimed at the sight of him moving closer "I've seen you on covers, I'm Jennings_Jenny Dougherty and this is my son, Darby, a pleasure to smitten you_I mean meet you" She chuckled and shook her head.


"I'm Logan, the one you've seen on covers" He grinned shaking her hand then tickled the baby's chin.


"I'll be on my way now" She gave an awkward snorted laugh and moved past him with the baby kit. Her eyes widened and she mouthed 'What?' at them before shutting the door.


"Uh-huh," Sam outstretched her arms going in for a big.


Harry moved reluctantly to Keira and she went down on one knee, hugging him as he had anticipated.


"I thought animals weren't allowed in here"


She presumed he used his affluence to sneak him in here, either way, she was happy to see him.


His eyes rested on the ornaments, Sam caught his stare.


"That won't be necessary," he remarked, Keira rose from the carpet with an acidic look.
