He pushes the document across the counter. Taking it, I go through it. I'll have my lawyer check it out after, but it's always good to go through a contract yourself first. If there is one thing my brother taught me, it is that I should never sign anything I haven't read.
The basics we discussed were there. The contract would be valid for a minimum of two years. At the end of it, I would get Unity Venture and salimony. Gabriel will also continue supporting Lilly. He also stated that he wanted Lilly recognized as his daughter, and her last nwould be changed to Wood.

"Any complaints?" he asked, forwardinga pen.
"No, but I'd like to add sstipulations." I stared at the pen, but didn't pick it up.
"What kind of stipulations?" Taking a deep breath, I lift my head. "One, I demand fidelity. Our marriage before was a secret and that allowed you to get away with cheating on me. This one, as stated, will be publicly announced, and I'll be damned if I let you humiliatein public by having mistresses. I also won't allow any embarrassment towards Lilly. She deserves more than a father who can't keep it in his pants. I don't want her to have to see articles about you parading other women in magazines." I stopped, pulling air into my lungs. His stare is intense, and his jaw is locked, but I refuse to stand down.
"I love sex, Harper. What am I supposed to do?" he finally asked.
I shrug. "Your hands will probably see a lot of actions, but I don't care. Figure it out, because if I so much as find out you cheated on me, I will cut off your cock and shove it so far up your ass you'll need a rectal retractor to remove it." I watch as he winces, but eventually he nods. I guess he's starting to see that I'm not one to fuck with. "What about you?" he asked after a while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I have my very handy battery-operated boyfriend, so that shouldn't be a worry, and besides, unlike you, who is a total man whore, I don't go around spreading my legs for every Tom, Dick and Harry." He released a sound that awfully sounded like a growl. He's pissed off. Callpetty, but I love the fact that I'm pissing him off.
"Second of all, I expect you to be a father. You were willing to use Lilly as a way to getto do what you wanted, so you should be willing to be her dad. You will spend twith her, get to know her, and cto her recitals and practices. Anything that concerns her, I expect you to be present. If you can't agree to that, then I won't sign the agreement." "I already planned to be involved in her life, Harper. She's my daughter," he said, surprising the shit out of me.
I didn't expect that. I thought I'd have to fight for him to agree. Quickly, I hid my shock. I didn't want him to see that he'd takenby surprise.
"Good," I nodded. "Because if you break my daughter's heart, the 'til death do us part' will cby real quick, and it would be a total shif I had to be a widow for the second time." He just stares atlike I've lost my damned mind, and maybe I have.
"Lastly, I don't want to wait till the end of our contract to join Unity Ventures. I want to start working there as soon as it can be arranged. If I'm going to take over, I need to know the workings of the company." "Fine," he nodded. "Anything else?" "Okay then, I'll get my lawyer to add your stipulations and have them back for your signature by evening." He took the documents and, without another word, walked out of the kitchen.
I sigh a breath of relief. Unlike the last time, this tI knew what I was getting into, and I've taken countermeasures to make sure that after the two years I'll leave in on piece. There is no way I am going to get hurt, right?
