Chapter 30

Harper's POV

Waking up next to Angelo had probably become one of my most favourite things in the world , even with everything going on I'd managed to wake up feeling refreshed. "Good morning love." I jumped slightly at the voice behind me , did that man ever sleep?

"Morning , how long have you been awake , it's only 6:30?"

"Not long , don't worry. Has Jack gotten back to you?" I rolled over and grabbed my phone from the bed side table.

"Yeah he has." I replied

To: Harper

From: Jack

Simon Black has a card. Don't worry

I've cancelled it he won't be allowed in. Him and his

Daughter have been banned from the club.

Let me know how you get on with this mess , if you

Need any help just let me know. Stay safe.

As I read the text aloud my mind was full of various emotions , my heart swelled at Jacks concern but the other half of me was furious. I'd been set up by a man that I'd never met all because I'd fallen in love with his daughter and she didn't like it , well tough shit Jessica I'm not going down without a fight.

"I've got an idea , as long as you're happy with it I could set it up for later on today?" Angelo's voice pulled me out of my fury induced daze.

"Do tell , I'm sure it'd be more productive than the ideas I've got floating around in my head."

"A magazine article on us , we can have a photographer come in take a few photos and I'll get someone to come in and write a piece on our new relationship. It'll be online in hours and all over the papers tomorrow." The idea was almost perfect , but we were forgetting that Jessica had that photo of me.

" But what about the photo she has?"

"After it comes out people will just assume that she's jealous and it'll be even more believable seeing as she's my Ex nobody will bat an eyelid at it. You've got nothing to worry about , I won't let anything bad happen to you." I was pulled into his arms and all of my previous worries melted away as I nestled in closer to him.

"Ring the photographer and the journalist , I'm not going to let her win this."

"Okay love , try and get some more sleep it's still early."

"Aren't you going to stay with me?" I asked sleepily

" I'm going to make some calls and get everything sorted for later on , I'll wake you up in a few hours." He placed a gentle kiss on my forehead and left the room. I shuffled over to his side of the bed and relished in the slight smell of his aftershave and body wash that he'd left behind and slowly drifted off to sleep again.

"Harper love , it's time to get up. The photographer's booked for midday."

I let out an incoherent grumble " what time is it?" I asked , at the moment I couldn't care less about telling Jessica where to shove her threats , I just wanted to curl up and go back to sleep. "It's 10:30am , you've got an hour and a half to get dressed. You don't need to worry about your hair and makeup there's going to be someone there to deal with all of that. I've made some breakfast , come and eat something once you've woken up a little." And just like that he disappeared again. I was ever so tempted to just turn over and sleep the day away but the need to fill up on the amazing waffles and other breakfast items that Angelo had made for me the last time I'd stayed was stronger.
