My five husbands by Loren rivera (good english books to read .TXT) 📕

(This chapter will be in the past. Remember, that nora does not know that this all took place as she has not gained back her memory.)

The day Nora met the guys for the first time:

Ron's POV:

           I am late for the dinner meeting with my business associate. It's all my secretary's fault. He was busy with a girl, so he forgot to inform me about the meeting. Off course, I fired him after that. Well, if a girl is more important that your career, then have fun with a girl. I am not letting any girl come in my life and mess up everything that I build in so many years. Girls, they were out of the equation for me and my brothers, sure we had sex with them but that's all we did. It was only for a night. Its not like we were fuck boys, the girls knew what they were getting before entering the room. We even share girls sometimes well, except for Daniel and Joseph, they are very possessive they don't share anything with anybody. As for shawn and james, we have foursomes sometimes. It's not like we cannot satisfy a girl alone heck, we can do more than that. But it just feels right, sharing a girl strengthens our bond somehow. Maybe, it is meant to be like that, anyway who cares. 

            Now enough about that, I finally reached the restaurant. It was not some fancy 7 star restaurant where I usually have my dinner, it was a 3 star restaurant that served the best quality food at a cheap price according to my associate. I found him sitting at the table by the window. 

Ron: I am so sorry for being late, Mr. Black,there was a little misunderstanding. 

Mr. Black: It's quite alright, Ron. And come on, we are friends, you can call me by my name. 

Ron: Okay Xander. So,shall we order now? 

Xander: Go ahead. 

          After the waitress came and took our order, we started talking about the business. We were supposed to sign a business deal, and he did not believe in involving the staff,so it was just us.

Xander: So, we share the profits in 70-30. With you having the bigger share. 

Ron: Deal. It's always good to work with you,xander.

Xander: Likewise,ron. I am a businessman, I always look for profit and with doing business with you is always profitable. 

Ron: Smart like always. Anyway, I wanted to ask you a question, why did you choose such a cheap restaurant despite all the 7 star restaurants you own?

Xander: Well, the food here is great and I am thinking about buying this restaurant, what do you think? 

Ron: Its indeed a great investment. With some renovation, this place will flourish. 

Xander: That's what I thought. 

          After having dinner with him,we were ready to leave. 

Ron: You go ahead, Xander I want to use the bathroom. 

Xander: Okay, so see you in your office next Tuesday. 

          After bidding him goodbye, I went to use the restaurant's bathroom. Damn, this place needs real renovation, the stalls were well maintained. The real problem were the walls. The walls had spray paint, drawings and blood on them. How can anyone use a washroom like this?

           Finally coming out of the excuse for a bathroom,I heard someone shouting. I walked towards the noise. A man was shouting at a girl. In fact he was cursing at her. I don't like men like that, who don't respect women. The first thing that my mother taught me was to never disrespect any women. 

          That man kept shouting at the girl in a public restaurant and the girl kept silent listening to him shout. I could not see that bastard's face,I want to break it with my hands but I am not going to interrupt in someone's personal life. But the girl's crying face was what stopped me from exiting the restaurant. She had a face of an angel. She was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my entire life. 

          After some time,the man left leaving the crying girl alone. After arguing with myself for some time, I moved towards her table. Her innocent crying face was what pulled me towards her. 

Ron: Hey honey. 

         She raised her head to look at me. Her eyes were all red and puffy from the crying. I offered her my handkerchief. She took it from me with her little hands. When her hands came in contact with mine, a chill ran down my spine. 

Ron: Are you okay, honey? 

         I don't know why I was asking all this. Why the heck would I care for a crying girl? But,there was something about her. Something in me never wanted for her to cry ever again. 

Girl: No. 

           How stupid of me, off course she is not fine, if she was fine, why would she cry. Why was I acting so stupid all of a sudden? 

           I sat beside her on a chair and gave her a glass of water. She emptied the glass slowly. 

Ron: What is your name? 

Girl: Nora. 

Ron: Beautiful name. 

Nora: Thank you. 

Ron: I am ron.

            Seeing the empty table in front of me, she has not eaten anything yet. 

Ron: Umm, do you want to eat something? 

Nora: I am not in the mood to eat. 

Ron: Oh come on, it's not good to sleep on a empty something. And my treat.

Nora: Thanks, but I can afford my own food. 

Ron: I insist and anyways I signed a great deal today so let's celebrate. 

Nora: Well then who am I to reject to free food.

           Seeing her reaction, I think that she is feeling slightly better now. I know I have had my dinner but I like her company, so I ordered lots of food. 

Ron: So, what do you do? 

Nora: Lots of things. Writer at night,teacher in the morning,afternoon working in the coffee shop and for weekends an NGO worker. 

         Wow, I have never met a person who works that much. I am really impressed.

Ron: Wow, I am impressed. I am an businessman myself and has never seen anyone work that much. How do you handle that much work and still have time for yourself?
