Don't Forget To Fly Because I'm Your Mrs. 2

Chapter 5

Autumn's POV

The first couple of days were awkward around the mansion. Jake would leave before I got up and come home late. I was bored out of my mind, so I decided to help the maids around the house. I had always helped around the house growing up since we didn't have maids or butlers. Although my life was now different. I wasn't going to change. I was mopping the foyer in some black yoga pants and a baseball tee that hung off my shoulders with my hair in a messy bun when Jake came in. It was the first time I had seen him since the first day.

I pushed my glasses up as they kept sliding down my nose from the sweat.

"What are you doing home so early?" I asked.

"I came home for some papers and thought I would stay for lunch. What are you doing?"

"Cleaning."

"I pay maids to do that Autumn."

"So? Can I not help around the house?"

"I would appreciate you not helping. I wouldn't want someone to see you and think I married a maid."

I clenched my jaw.

"I don't see what's wrong with that. It's a decent job."

He scoffed, "Not for the wife of a CEO."

My blood boiled inside of me. I just wanted to smack him. He hadn't changed one bit.

"Lily!" He called.

Lily came scurrying into the room.

"Yes, sir?"

"Please take the mop from my wife and make sure she doesn't help around the house again. Got it?"

"Yes sir."

She took the mop from my hands leaving me feeling humiliated which was becoming frequent.

"You are an arrogant asshole Jake Williams." I left him going to my room to let out my anger.

I slammed the door shut closing my eyes. I opened them knowing what I had to do.

30 minutes later I was dressed in a pencil skirt with a blouse and my one inch heels(which were the only ones I could wear without looking like a fool). I redid my bun and left my glasses on. I didn't have time to stick those contacts in. I grabbed my worn out clutch and grabbed my keys. I opened the door revealing Jake with his fist in the air as if he had been about to knock.

His eyes scanned me up and down which made me squirm in my spot.

"What do you want?"

"We need to talk about some conditions. We're you going somewhere?"

"Yes as a matter of fact I was, so if you'll excuse me."

His arm blocked my pathway.

"Not so fast. We need to talk first."

"Then talk."

"We need to set some boundaries here."

"Like what?"

"I'm going to be having some business galas and charity events soon. You'll need to accompany me and play your role."

"Is that it?"

"For now."

"I have a condition myself," I stated. I looked into his eyes trying to appear serious, "No sex. Ever. I will kiss you when I have to but no more than that."

His eyes grew dark for a second before he nodded. "Fine, but just wait and see. You're going to be the one falling into my arms again."

My hand collided with his cheek.
