His contract Bride by Shivani Sharma (best books to read in your 20s .TXT) 📖

I said to her with a small smile on my face.

“True,” she said smiling at me.

“How can I help you, ma’am,” the shopkeeper asks as we enter the electronic store.

“Show us the best and latest mobile phone,” Myra said smiling at the shopkeeper.

“Do you have a budget ma’am?” the shopkeeper asks her.

“No,” Myra said to him.

“Any particular brand you like to see?” he asks.

“Which brand do you prefer for mobile, Raven?” she asks me.

“Are you buying a mobile for me?” I ask her while narrowing my eyes at her, and she nodded her head at me.

“But, I don’t need it, I already have one,” I protest.

“I know, but Noah said to purchase one for you, besides the one you have is an updated one, you need a new one,” she said to me. I was about to say something, but before I can say something she cut me off.

“I am just doing my job, Raven, if you have any problem, you can discuss it with Noah later, okay,” she asks and I nodded my head at her.

“Apple iPhone please,” she said to the shopkeeper, and my eyes open wide with shock.

“Apple Ipone, Myra, are you out of your mind, do you know how expensive it is?” I ask her.

“I know,” I said while looking at the phones that the shopkeeper was showing her.

“Then why are you purchasing it, and if it that necessary to buy me a mobile, you can buy me a cheap one you know,” I said to her, but she just ignores me and keeps asking about the mobile feature to the shop keeper.

After many protests, Myra still purchases an Apple iPhone mobile and that even the expensive one, and I just shake my head at her.

“I don’t understand, why are you so upset about me buying the expensive mobile for you, because if it was any other girl on your place, then she will deliberately buy the most expensive mobile purposely you know, ” She said to me.

“But that is the problem, Myra, I am not any other girl, I am me, unlike other girls, I don’t like chase money, neither I like to take advantage of someone or any situation for money, I like to have enough money to provide myself and help the person I care for,” I explain to her.

“You know what, Raven, I like you and I think we are gonna best friends,” he said smiling at me, as we enter a salon.

“Welcome to the mini salon, ma’am, how can I help you?” a woman wearing a white shirt and small black skirt asks us as we enter inside a salon.

“I want you to do a whole makeover of my friend, standing here,” Myra said pointing her hand towards me and started explaining to her, what she wants them to make me look like, while I look around the salon.

The left side of the room was covered with mirror and the tables full of beauty product, and machines to be used in the beauty parlor, there is a waiting room on the right side of the room with comfortable chairs and the book self loaded with the latest magazine and latest beauty products. There are few footstep gaps between the chairs for the workers so that they can move around the customer nicely.

A few clients were seen relaxing on the chair while having a facial mask on the face and getting manicures and pedicures. While some were sitting and waiting for their turn to come while reading the magazine and having refreshments to pass the time.

"Please come with me, ma'am," the woman said to me, and I look at Myra and she nodded her head saying, she will be back in 10 minutes, there is some business she needs to attain with the owner of the salon, I nodded my head at her and walk with her.

She makes me sit on one of a chair and started applying a fail mask over my face, then I feel her, adjusting the chair and putting my head on something and washing my hair with water.

After washing my hair for some time, I feel her putting something on my head which I guess is shampoo, and running her hand over my hair and scalp, and wash it again. She repeats the process, this time with conditioner, and then comb it.

A Beginning of a new friendship

 

(Raven P.O.V)

After an anguishing 2 hours, she was done with the whole makeover, I see myself and I can’t believe that the girl in the mirror was me when I look at the mirror to see, how was I looking after a makeover.

“Wow, Raven you look so gorgeous, I hardly recognize you, I am sure, that Noah will fall in love with you when he saw you like this,” Myra said while looking and smiling at me.

“Thank you,” I said looking away from her so that she can’t see me blushing like hell at her last comment.

“Nicely done, Diva,” she complimented the worker.

“Thank you, ma’am,” the worker said smiling at her.

“Anyway, Raven I want you to try this dress for me, Diva will show you the changing room,” Myra said while handing a bag to me. I take the bag from her and follow her, to the changing room, it was on the right side inside the salon.

I close the door and take the dress out of the bag, it was a light blue, V-neck dress, with a while embroidery belt on the waist side. It was simple but a beautiful dress.

I change my clothes and put my old clothes inside the bag, then walk out of the room.

"Now, you look just perfect, lets go and grab something from the food court to eat, I was starving," Myra said while holding my hand and dragging me out of the salon.

"Wait, what about the bill?" I asking while trying to stop her.

"Oh, don't worry about it, I have already paid it," she said and then lead me to the food court and we order our food.

"So, Myra can you tell me something about Noah, I mean who was there in his family, and what should I expected from them, So that I was ready to face them when I meet them?" I ask her.

"Well, if you consider friends and relatives we are a huge family, and if you want to know about the main family, then you already know that his father is dead right?" she asks and I nodded my head at her.

"So, now he had a mother Mia Nara, her mother is a kind and loving person, but she is very strict when needed to keep everyone in the family in discipline, he has three siblings, one big brother Oliver Nara, who had his own company and a nice person but very protective when its come to his family, and married to Izabella wardrobe, who was is pregnant now, one big sister Olivia Marshall, she is a loving and caring person, but like Oliver, she was very protective to when it comes to her family or friends, who is married to Roy Adams, who had 2 daughters and a son, then there is his little sister Lisa who is completing last year of her school, she is like a normal typical teenager, but a wonderful and cheerful girl, and about other friend and relatives, I think Noah will introduce you to all of them when the right time comes because they were lots of people and it was a pain in the ass to remember all of them," she said with a chuckle and we both burst out laughing at her comment. Then the waiter comes with our food.

After eating lunch, we go to clothing stores like Forever 21, Changing season, the wardrobe, and many others, that we go to the cosmetic store to buys some cosmetics, etc, and Myra purchases lots of cosmetics and clothes for me, even after my protest telling me, that I should wear clothes matching to Noah's standard, no matter theater I was at a party with him or his home.

"Oh, No, I was not going inside that store," I said to her while shaking my head at her and taking a step back from the store when I saw we were standing in front of Victoria's Secret store.

"Why?" She asks me.

"What do you mean why? I don't need any of this, it isn't like we are going do the deed, so what is the need to go inside the store, and purchases those thing," I ask her while looking away from her so that she cannot see me blushing like hell.

"Oh, come on, Raven don't be so naive, besides who knows, if something happens between you guys while you are together, so you need to look sexy," he said smirking at me while raising her eyebrows up and down in suggestion, making me blush even redder if it was possible.

"You are evil, you know," I said pouting at her, she just laughs at me and drags me inside the store and starts looking at some lingerie.

"Here, try this," Myra said handing red lingerie to me and I just look at her.

"What?" Myra asks narrowing her eye at me.

"I don't know how to wear it," I said while fidgeting under her gaze.

"Seriously?" she asks and I nodded my head at her 

"Girl, you truly are Navie, you really need some training from me," come with me and I will tell you how to wear it," Myra said while leading me to the changing room.

After going through some lingeries, she made me try some swinging one-piece suit, actually, she wants me to try some bikini, but after my huge protest, she gives up and makes me try some one-piece swimsuit, just in case I have to go to the beach with Noah to spend some time with his friends or family.

After paying the bill, we go to the jewelry shop to purchase the ring, I need to wear when I meet his family. After walking around the mall for some more time, we got tired and decided to go home.

"Yu hu, Earth to Raven," Myra said waving her hand in front of my eyes.

"What? What happen?" I ask puzzled.

"I was asking you, what are you planning to do after your contract with Noah is over?" Myra asks me.

"Oh, sorry, I just got lost in my thoughts,"  I said with a sigh.

"What were you thinking?" Myra asks me.

"I was thinking, the heart you would like to become a friend with me or not, I mean, you are a very nice person and I really like you, and really want to become your friend, but I was not as high five and rich like you, so would you really able to accept me as your friend?" I ask nervously.

"And why did you think that?" she asks me.

"Because, you're rich, and I am not, and I also don't want to make you think that I want to be your friend because of your status or money," I said to her.

"Girl I have just spend a day with you, and instantly have a liking to you, I don't see why I would not accept you as my friend, besides, I don't see anything about you that
