They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group.<br /> Raegan lay motionless in the massive bed. Damp strands of her hair stuck to her temples and cheeks. She stared at the ceiling with her eyes brimming with tears. Her naked body was aching slightly.<br /> Raegan Hayes was a little absent-minded at the moment, all she could think of since was the doctor's words. "Congratulations! You are pregnant."<br /> <br /> She took out the pregnancy test report from the nightstand drawer.<br /> <br /> Raegan had gone to the hospital because of an incessant stomachache. After a urine test, the doctor broke the news to her. She was almost five weeks pregnant!<br /> <br /> It came as a shock to her. She and Mitchel had always used protection whenever they had sex.<br /> <br /> After racking her brain, she traced the time of conception. It turned out to be last month after a party. Mitchel had driven her home and suddenly asked her at the door if she was in her safe period. That was their first time had sex.<br /> <br /> Now, it dawned on her that the period was far from safe!<br /> <br /> Days later, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish.<br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public.<br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time.<br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed.<br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working.<br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years.<br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband.<br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the pregnancy test result.<br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel the truth.<br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then.<br /> <br /> The shower in the bathroom finally went off.<br /> <br /> As soon as Mitchel came out, his phone rang. He went to the balcony with only a bath towel and answered the phone.<br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight.<br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this ungodly hour?<br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned to the room and stripped away the bath towel.<br /> His figure was a sight to behold. The packs on his belly were bulky. His buttocks were hard and his legs were long and muscular. This man was a catch!<br /> <br /> It wasn't the first time Raegan was seeing that. Nonetheless, she still blushed and her heart began to race at this time.<br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally.<br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour?<br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the pregnancy test result tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said, "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him.<br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously.<br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other.<br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Frail and ill, her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy.<br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry.<br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind as she took a shower and got back to bed. She couldn't sleep a wink.<br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone.<br /> <br /> However, she wasn't interested in them. She was about to swipe them away when one of them caught her attention. The familiar name made her click on it.<br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing.<br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture!<br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport?<br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number.<br /> <br /> Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end.<br /> <br /> "Hello!" It was a particularly gentle woman's voice.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away.<br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Bile rose to her throat.<br /> <br /> Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl.<br /> <br /> Chapter2 Wake Up From The Wild Dream<br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores.<br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't return home last night. Raegan was so worried that she didn't sleep at all.<br /> All she kept thinking about was the woman who answered his phone when she called. Did Mitchel spend the night with that woman?<br /> <br /> Raegan already knew the answer to that, but she was still in denial.<br /> <br /> It was difficult for her to come to terms with that fact.<br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right?<br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good.<br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly.<br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice.<br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly.<br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears.<br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object.<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document.<br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again.<br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "You two spent the night together. As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head.<br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice.<br /> <br /> Lauren and Mitchel spent the night together!<br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder!<br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart.<br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry.<br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside.<br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out.<br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome.<br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed?<br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance.<br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Ouch! Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying.<br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone.<br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well.<br /> <br /> In the elevator.<br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work.<br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love.<br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream.<br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love.<br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened.<br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea.<br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside.<br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's probably one of his many toys. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her.<br /> <br /> The love was one-sided.<br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, has Mrs. Dixon finally woken up from her wild dream?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her.<br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping.<br /> <br /> Chapter3 Tool For His Pleasure<br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "I heard you are quite good in bed. How about I introduce you to a couple of men? They could really need you."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, we are in the company, not a brothel. If you are interested in that kind of business, you know where to go."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan had just insinuated that she was a pimp. This made Tessa's face change.<br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of hot coffee on Raegan.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the hot liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee burned her arm and her skin turned red.<br /> <br /> "Ouch!" Raegan frowned in pain. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers.<br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just a bastard without parents? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> A crisp sound was heard all of a sudden.<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by a hot slap to her face.<br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would slap her.<br /> <br /> Tessa held her cheek and stared blankly for a while. Then, she stuttered, "You... You hit me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, Raegan lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it.<br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this.<br /> <br /> "You!"<br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, raising her hand up high to return the slap.<br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so tightly that the latter couldn't move another inch.<br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, Tessa struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap.<br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your filthy hands on me? Who the hell do you think you are? You are nothing but Mitchel's toy!"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room.<br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo.<br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him.<br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan slapped her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, look at my face. She slapped me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at the back of her arm which was scalded by the coffee.<br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears.<br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment.<br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure.<br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes.<br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand.<br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words.<br /> <br /> Did he really see her as a tool for his pleasure?<br /> <br /> There was only one man in Raegan's heart, and it was Mitchel. In the second year of her marriage to him, she got pregnant. Raegan's joy knew no bounds.<br /> But before she could break the news to her husband, he served her divorce papers because he wanted to marry his first love.<br /> Afterward, she decided to get her life back on track.<br /> Her name was everywhere years later. Mitchel became very uncomfortable. For some reason, he began to miss her. His heart ached when he saw her all smiles with another man.<br /> <br /> What will be happened next?<br /> There are limited chapters to put here, click the button below to install our App to continue reading more chapters.<br /> (It will automatically jump to the book when you open the app).<br /> &7& | LEARN_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/55837322-fb_contact-e | 101349082641610 | Good Fiction | https://facebook.com/100083027966501 | 8,592 | 1 | 977,679,980,427,976 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Good Fiction | 120208764005000714 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | video | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/55837322-fb_contact-enj57b_8_0423-core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=331118&accid=934080944896999 | 2024-04-23 04:47 | https://scontent-bos5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440185007_298991699912796_4348010575467058750_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=mvSEQWKpJmgAb68qSYb&_nc_ht=scontent-bos5-1.xx&oh=00_AfB33ju2E2g3h-pRpUUdEFHjSJ1OFjT_zqFQOlD1qXTH6w&oe=6634635D | person_profile | 0 | Good Fiction | https://scontent-bos5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/437579054_761863016059492_3218515430264371417_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=h3DDg3ejzlAAb63V_-X&_nc_ht=scontent-bos5-1.xx&oh=00_AfANcDza562T09LhRr00zh1sELpJvUadjIDS1ANsYvbvIw&oe=66343B77 | 0 | 3 | Good Fiction | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Please, it wasn't what it looked like. This is all a big misunderstanding."<br /> Why do they always say that? Do they think our eyes don't work? "You weren't spit roasting some bimbo with your brother? You weren't throwing our marriage away for some cheap thrill?" I ask.<br /> "No, I mean yes we were with" โ he pauses as he considers his next words โ "that woman. But we were doing it for the family. She's been riding us for months and we finally decided to give her what she wanted to help Dad save the business."<br /> _____________<br /> <br /> New Year's Eve<br /> Another holiday, another day Phil is working. I hate that he's putting pressure on himself but he said they had a lot to do before the end of the year. Since I know most of the office is off today, I decide to surprise him with lunch.<br /> When I arrive at Robinson & Associates, there are only a few cars here. I think about calling Phil, but instead I type in the passcode and sneak in. When I make my way towards his office, a sense of impending dread overtakes me. I shake it off as I continue down the hall to his closed door. When I turn the handle and open it, my entire reality comes crashing in around me.<br /> I stand there momentarily shocked before my brain can process what I'm seeing: Phil and his brother, Mark, both plowing into a blonde they have draped over the desk. Phil is slamming into her from behind while Mark is buried down her throat. Their heads all snap towards me as the food I was carrying goes crashing to the ground. Wide-eyed they appear as stunned as I am. For a second, no one moves but then the mystery woman smirks at me โ with Mark's shaft still in her mouth โ and it knocks me out of my stupor. Without a backwards glance, I flee.<br /> "Lola!" I hear Phil shout behind me. I'm in my car and peeling out of the parking lot before he has time to pull his pants up and chase after me.<br /> I make it all the way to the house before my emotions overwhelm me. Slamming my hands on the wheel, I wonder how I could be this stupid. How could I not see that he was cheating on me? Of course, he was! The late nights, the weekend work trips, the lack of interest in intercourse. It's all so obvious now.<br /> I give myself a moment to freak out before marching inside to pack a bag. I can't stay here with him, not after this. Not after beating myself up for my marriage not working. Turns out it wasn't a lack of effort on my part. It was because my husband decided to invite other people into it. The prick in question arrives as I'm zipping up my suitcase.<br /> He grabs my arm as I head to the door. "Honey, wait. Please, it wasn't what it looked like. This is all a big misunderstanding."<br /> Why do they always say that? Do they think our eyes don't work? "You weren't spit roasting some bimbo with your brother? You weren't throwing our marriage away for some cheap thrill?" I ask.<br /> "No, I mean yes we were with" โ he pauses as he considers his next words โ "that woman. But we were doing it for the family. She's the rep for the deal we've been working on. It's what we had to do to get the business. She's been riding us for months and we finally decided to give her what she wanted to help Dad save the business."<br /> "Oh I'm sure she's been riding you for months," I mutter. You and I both know that is a load of trash. I've seen her before at the company picnic. She's your brother's assistant." He's either shocked I remember or for being called out, because he opens and closes his mouth several times without a rebuttal. Good. I shove him back and continue to my car. Before slamming the door, I add, "I'm going to stay with my dad for a while. Don't contact me."<br /> ---<br /> Today is my birthday. I've been at my dad's house for the last few days but he left last night to go on a business trip. I almost laughed when he told me and asked if any assistants would be joining him but that is more than I need to know about my dad. Plus, he's a single man. He can do as he pleases. I'm not even a little bit surprised he won't be here for my birthday. It's not like he knew I was coming or that this is the first birthday he'll miss.<br /> My phone is blowing up with messages and calls but I can't bring myself to return any. I haven't told anyone what happened with Phil yet. I'm beyond embarrassed. You never think it's going to happen to you. You never think you'll miss the signs, but then you do. I'm staring at all the messages Phil sent me apologizing, asking me to come home, and gaslighting me about all the reasons he went to another woman. Despite all those messages, I am the most annoyed by the fact that he hasn't acknowledged my birthday. Not that I want him to, but it is telling. I'm scrolling through his string of lies and excuses when a FaceTime from Georgie comes through. I don't want to answer, but I know I have to. Georgie will keep calling until I pick up. I put on a fake smile and hit the answer button.<br /> "It's the birthday girl!"<br /> "Hi, Georgie. How's Barbados?"<br /> "Oh, you know, beautiful weather, beautiful people, delicious drinks, can't complain. Next year you have to let me fly you out to spend your birthday together."<br /> "That would be nice," I reply distractedly.<br /> "What's wrong, Honeybun? You don't seem happy to be turning twenty-seven. Actually, you don't seem happy at all. What gives, Lo? Who do I need to kill?"<br /> I roll my eyes. Georgie has always been overprotective. Apparently not having any siblings of my own meant the Rivera family was adopting me. That gave me two big sisters and a big brother who were all ready to go to battle for me. I'm reluctant to tell the truth since Georgie was never fond of Phil. He was apparently slimy and had 'a face that said he was up to something,' which turned out to be true. This news is not going to go over well.<br /> I go through the events of New Year's Eve and some of the things before that lead up to it. By the end, Georgie's voice is hard and face is red. "I am going to kill that prick. No one treats you like that, Lola. No one. His days are numbered."<br /> "Alright, calm down Rambo. You aren't going to do anything. If you go to jail, you won't get to play with those cute nieces you have or eat your mother's pasteles ever again."<br /> "I'm serious. This is unacceptable. Where are you? You're not going to go back to that loser. I can fly you out to Chicago. You can move in with me. Start over without that prick. You were always too good for him."<br /> "I'm fine, Georgie. I'm at Dad's trying to figure out my next move. I am not moving in with you. There aren't enough noise canceling headphones in the world to make that happen."<br /> That shifts Georgie's expression from dark and stormy to a smirk. Horn dog.<br /> "I don't know what I'm going to do next but for now, I want to lick my wounds. I haven't been happy for a while, crumpling marriage aside," I confess. "I'm considering all my options before making any life-altering decisions."<br /> "My offer stands. You need a place to go, my guest room is always open."<br /> "Thanks Georgie. Go enjoy your vacation! You'll be hard at work again soon."<br /> ---<br /> "Bye, Lo. Call me soon."<br /> After a few more weeks at my dad's and increasingly more hostile texts and calls from my husband. I decide that I need a fresh start and to be surrounded by friends. I pull up my group text with Tiffany and Carina and shoot off a message.<br /> 11:57 AM<br /> Me<br /> I'm coming to Nashville. I'll get there next Wednesday, same as Tiffany.<br /> Phil will be at an accounting conference all week. I'll head home Monday and pack up everything I need for a new life in Music City. Nashville, here I come...<br /> February<br /> My first days in Nashville have been amazing. Robby hasn't left for spring training yet, but it's been a total estrogen fest at Casa de Becker. Considering he is about to leave his girl for several weeks, Robby has been a good sport about all the rom-coms and rosรฉ present in his swanky condo. Tiffany and I are going to stay here with Carina until he gets back and then we'll move into the two-bedroom unit they bought a couple floors below.<br /> A few nights before Robby leaves, he wants to make Carina a fancy dinner at home. To make ourselves scarce, Tiffany and I spend the night exploring Nashville. We stumble across a cute champagne garden that is right up Tiff's alley. As we sip our bubbles, I can tell my blonde bestie is buttering me up for something.<br /> "So..." she probes. "You left Phil over six weeks ago. Have you made any movement in the separation front?"<br /> "I've contacted a lawyer in Missouri, but I haven't done anything yet. He hasn't been bugging me lately and I know the second he gets served papers he's going to harass me again. I'm enjoying the peace while I can. I think he finally got the message that it's over but I don't want to tempt fate yet."<br /> "Speaking of tempting things, are you ready to get back out there? Meet some hunk to break your two-month dry spell?"<br /> "Two months? Try eight," I say before I can stop myself. Tiffany chokes on her drink at the announcement.<br /> "Eight?! You haven't had intercourse eight months?" she whisper-shouts causing people at nearby tables to turn their heads.<br /> "Can you shut up? People are staring!"<br /> "I'm sorry. I just... I know you hadn't gotten physical in a while, but your husband didn't have intercourse with you for that long, and you didn't suspect he was cheating? Oh honey, I didn't know it was that bad. You'd think the dude would throw you a bone now and then, especially when you were offering. Who turns down a free lay?"<br /> "Excuse me," I huff, affronted.<br /> "I wasn't calling you easy, babe. I'm simply pointing out that it is a lot more work to go and find a mistress or a rando than it is to have intercourse with your wife. Wow. And you're a knockout. Phil is dumber than I thought he was."<br /> "Can we not talk about this in public?" I ask with heated cheeks.<br /> "Oh, no ma'am. We are talking about this. I cannot let this injustice stand. We are getting you laid ASAP."<br /> "I am not going home with some random guy we meet at a bar tonight. I can't handle that stress or potential rejection right now."<br /> "Fine," she sighs, then perks up. "What if I knew a way you could have intercourse with someone who would for sure not turn you down?"<br /> "I'm not hiring a hooker," I deadpan.<br /> "Not a hooker, babe. There is a club here that offers a service for finding sexually compatible people and getting them together. It's all between consenting adults and no money exchanges hands โ except the membership fee."<br /> "I don't want to have intercourse in some shady nightclub."<br /> "Not a nightclub. And it's not shady, it's super classy. You fill out a profile and they find someone who matches your preferences. Everyone who is approved has been vetted. I signed up a few weeks ago but haven't been yet."<br /> "Tiff, you have guys hanging all over you. Why do you need to go to a club for intercourse ?"<br /> She shrugs. "Sometimes it's nice to have a partner who already knows what you want. That way, you don't have to go through all the pesky guesswork and pretend you don't want him to spank your hip and call you his 'naughty girl.' Plus, there are a few things I enjoy that aren't exactly one-night stand or first date material likeโ"<br /> I hold my hand up to stop her. "I don't need to know all that, and I don't think this is a good idea."<br /> "Come on, Bunny. It's perfect. It's a sure-fire way to rip off the Band-Aid with someone who won't reject you and knows exactly what your boundaries are. It's ideal for a novice!"<br /> "A novice, really?"<br /> "Oh, I'm sorry. Did you have a lot of sexcapades you never told me during between homecoming and freshman spring semester when you met Phil?"<br /> "No..."<br /> "Exactly," she exclaims. "You need someone who knows how to get you off and how to keep you comfortable. I'll help you complete your profile and make sure you get the match you need."<br /> She's staring at me with big blue puppy dog eyes. It's hard to say no when I know she's trying to help me.<br /> "Fine," I concede. And that's how later that night I end up huddled in bed with Tiffany answering an exceedingly thorough questionnaire about my sexual preferences.<br /> "I don't even know what some of this stuff is," I say.<br /> "Like what?"<br /> "Like water spots. Do they mean jet skis?"<br /> "They mean being peed on," she replies nonchalantly.<br /> "Seriously?"<br /> "Seriously."<br /> "Why do you know that?"<br /> She smirks at me before answering, "I've been with my share of kinky former child stars."<br /> "Oh my God."<br /> "Hey, don't knock it till you try it. I didn't get peed on."<br /> "That is way more than I needed to know. Ugh, this is going to be the most vanilla questionnaire they've ever received. They aren't going to let me in."<br /> "Oh please. I'm sure you've got some secret kinks in there you don't even know about. Let them worry about that. All you need to do is answer honestly."<br /> After another hour of filling it out, Tiffany convinces me to submit an application. Later, I go to bed embarrassed but also optimistic that I'm taking steps forward even if I have no intentions of stepping foot inside that club.<br /> * * *<br /> "I can't believe I let you convince me to do this," I yell over the blow dryer.<br /> "Shut up. You're going to love it," Tiffany replies with an eye roll. "You're going to meet some hunk to rail you into forgetting all about that small-shafted son of a bimbo who called himself a man."<br /> "Are we sure this is a good idea?"<br /> Tiffany puts down the blow dryer and meets my eyes in the mirror. "This is going to be great for you, Lo. I promise."<br /> I nod my head and she returns to helping me get ready. After she's done, I slip into the navy velvet dress she forced me to buy for the occasion. The fabric is smooth against my skin and the cinched waist gives the illusion I was gifted the curves of my Italian ancestors.<br /> "it pays to have someone who went to beauty school as your bestie," Tiffany comments, coming into the room. I haven't had the nerve to peek yet.<br /> I breathe at my reflection.<br /> "Yeah babe, you look hot ."<br /> "You are a magician, Tiff. I can't believe you made me look this good."<br /> "Yeah, whatever. You're a little Aphrodite and some guy is going to cream his pants at the sight of you tonight," she says as she downs the rest of her champagne. "Alright, Bunny. Let's roll out. Don't forget to grab your mask if you want to keep up the mystery."<br /> "Here goes nothing," I mumble as we walk out the door.<br /> โข BRADY โข<br /> "Good seeing you as always," Declan Ryder says as he slaps my shoulder and makes his way out of Cole's office. Declan, Cole Viatello, and I are co-owners of Club Hedone, a intercourse and kink club in Nashville. The club got its name after Hedone, the goddess of pleasure and enjoyment. She was the daughter of Eros, god of love and intercourse , and Psyche, the goddess of the soul.<br /> The three of us meet every couple of months to talk about the club and make big (read: expensive) decisions. Declan and I may be co-owners/investors, but we both have day jobs โ if you can call being a top-selling musician and MLB first baseman 'day jobs.' Cole runs the day-to-day and is the majority owner.<br /> As I am about to leave, Cole grabs my attention after glancing at his phone. "Fancy staying to play tonight, Miller?" he asks.<br /> While I help in the club when I can, serving as a monitor or taking part in demonstrations, I don't play often. It's not that I don't want to or that my tastes are so particular that it is hard to find a playmate. It's the opposite in fact. On the BDSM-kink spectrum, I rank pretty basic.<br /> Sure, I've done all the training and know the ins and outs of being a Dom, but it isn't really my jam. I absolutely have dominant tendencies, that is part of my personality and always will be. But I am not a Dom in the traditional sense. It can be fun to play in that dynamic sometimes to release some energy or assert control, but I don't enjoy the full power exchange that many subs are after. Nor am I into other BDSM categories like DDlg or pet play. In my everyday life especially, I don't want a relationship where I impose rules and punishments. I simply want a sweet partner I can support and care for who doesn't mind that I can be a bit of a bossy prick.<br /> "I wasn't planning to play tonight," I respond. "We leave for spring training next week. I've got a lot to take care of before we go."<br /> "Think I could persuade you?" Cole questions.<br /> "Something wrong?"<br /> "Wrong? No. An inconvenience? Yes. One of the House Doms had an emergency and can't be here tonight. We had him matched with a woman here to play for the first time. I don't have anyone else available who would match her profile. I'd do it but I am overseeing a demonstration in the medical play room.<br /> "She's a beginner and her questionnaire shows her interests as pretty mild. I thought you'd be a good fit since I know you don't get into the hard stuff and enjoy the sweethearts. It could be a good last hurrah before you go."<br /> "It has been a while since I've played," I concede. "What the heck, sure. I could use some fun before spending several weeks surrounded by sweaty, whiny dudes."<br /> "Awesome, thanks, man. Eric will have her file for you upstairs."<br /> * * *<br /> I head up to the second-floor reception area where I see Eric and Willa. Eric is the member relations manager and Willa is one of the attendants who help get people settled into their various rooms and assists House Dominants.<br /> "Mr. Miller, I didn't know you'd be joining us tonight," Eric greets.<br /> "I wasn't planning to, but Cole mentioned you had a Dom out and that I might be able to fill in with a new guest," I reply.<br /> "Oh, I'm glad it's you," Willa gushes. Seeing my confusion, she continues, "I met the woman you're being matched with tonight. She is definitely going to need an experienced hand. She was a little nervous and unsure. Very cute, though. She's totally your type." She blushes, realizing she is rambling.<br /> "That is good to know. I am happy to help," I remark as one of the House Doms, Craig, comes up to get his pairing. He grabs both files from Eric and hands mine over to me. He flips through his and sets it back on the desk with a dissatisfied expression<br /> "I can lead you to the rooms," Willa comments. "They've been waiting for a little while. I bet they're getting antsy."<br /> "We can find the way on our own. This isn't our first rodeo," Craig sneers, condescendingly. I make a mental note to have Cole talk to the Doms about how they speak to staff members. He shouldn't be giving her attitude for doing her job.<br /> "Thank you for the offer, Willa," I say.<br /> I review the file of the woman I'm meeting before giving it back to Eric. She has a degradation kink. I'm surprised Cole thought I would be the right match for her. Don't get me wrong, I can play any role, but the way he and Willa were talking about her led me to believe she was a good girl-type. I typically go for women who are more into praise than degradation, but since I'm playing substitute tonight, I guess I get what I get.<br /> I make my way down the hall after Craig. When I get to the doorI knock hard before turning the handle. When I open it, I am met with the sight of a beautiful creature standing in the middle of the room. Not only is she short, but she is also slender with slight curves shown off by a tight dark, velvet dress.<br /> Her long brown hair is striking against her metallic mask, but none of that compares to the big, hazel eyes that bore into me. After I take her in for a few moments, I realize I haven't said anything, and she is frozen in place. Her file made it sound as if she has a good understanding of what she wants in bed, but Cole did say she was new. As the Dom in this scenario, it's up to me to make the first move.<br /> "Are you going to stand there staring at me all night you dirty little bimbo? As much as I enjoy your eyes devouring me, I have plans to bang them into the back of your head," I say in greeting.<br /> She sucks in a breath but other than that, she doesn't make a move. She must need a bit more prodding.<br /> "Not used to man calling it like he sees it? Not used to a man ready to use your body for his pleasure? Don't worry, if you're a good little bimbo, I'll make sure you're so exhausted you sleep for a week," I promise. "Come here."<br /> That kicks her into gear and she slowly makes her way closer to me. As she does, I drink her in. Everything about her is breathtaking, despite her small stature. I think my hands could span her entire rib cage.<br /> "She does know how to obey. That's good, pet. Turn around." As she spins, I see her small curves in her dress. My hands itch to touch the soft fabric, but I need to ensure she is ready for everything about to happen first. While her back is to me now, we are standing in front of a full-length mirror. I wait for her to meet my gaze before I keep going.<br /> "Do you remember everything they went over in your paperwork?" I ask. She nods in response. It's then I realize I haven't heard her talk yet. "Words," I grit. I need her verbal acknowledgment before this goes further.<br /> "Yes," she breathes out quietly. Alright, then we're good to go. Examining her, it is hard to believe she is into degradation. I know you can't always tell someone's kink by their appearance, but she has this air of sweetness and vulnerability to her with those big doe eyes. I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum, though. If this pixie wants to be degraded, degraded she will be.<br /> "Normally I'd tell a bimbo like you to get on your knees, but I don't think you'd be able to reach my shaft from there. Take off your dress and kneel on the bed." When she remains where she is, I give her a sharp slap on the hip and tell her to get moving.<br /> She quickly goes over to the bed and glances at me from across the room. I walk over to the dresser and start to get more comfortable. I remove my watch and take off my jacket. I take my time scanning her body without her dress. Her perfect breasts and pert, pink papillae are on display as she kneels in a pair of delicate lace panties.<br /> I can't help but smirk as I watch her check out my abs and chest. I earned this body through hours spent at the gym and in practice. But I have never felt as proud of it as I do now with how her gaze eats me up. When her eyes snap back up to mine, I address her again.<br /> "Look at you on your knees waiting for me. You're needy, aren't you? Pathetic and desperate for my shaft? Your greedy private part is going to have to wait until I'm ready. I want you begging for it before I give it to you," I state.<br /> I expect to see heat flare in her eyes or watch her clench her thighs, but her body language and facial expression don't give anything away. If I was an outside observer, I would say she wasn't into this, but she is the one who filled out the profile questionnaire. She'd have no reason to lie unless she was trying to get paired with a specific Dom based on kink. There is no way for her to know who she'd match with, though. Profile matches are random and based on availability and preferences which can vary by the day. While newbies are only matched with House Doms or other approved, experienced members, regular members can match with each other.<br /> The idea that she might have wanted to be with someone else tonight causes pain in my chest. This little doll is mine โ at least for tonight, anyway. Doll is the right word for her with her big eyes and delicate features. I wish I could peer into them again, but she isn't making eye contact, it's almost as if she's staring through me which will not do. I guess I need to amp this up another level.<br /> "What's wrong, pet? You don't want me to call you desperate? But you are, aren't you? You came here tonight to be my doll. Desperate for me to make a mess of you. That's what you want, isn't it? To be my pathetic little bimbo?"<br /> Just when I think she is going to respond, she bursts into sobs. For a moment, I freeze. What is happening? I've never had anyone react this way to me before. Sure, I've had partners tear up after an intense climax but never full body weeping. I know part of degradation is humiliation, but that should be turning her on, not making her cry.<br /> I move toward her to try to offer a comforting touch but she flinches back and clambers to the other side of the bed. "Why are you being mean to me?" she gets out in between sobs.<br /> Mean? That isn't the word most people would use in this context. I know she isn't experienced, but her file said degradation was her kink. She thinks I'm being mean to her? Isn't that what she wanted? Something is not right. This has gone all wrong since the second I walked into the room. I need to see where she is at ASAP. I need to turn this encounter around.<br /> "Color?" I inquire.<br /> I think she says, "what?" in between hiccups.<br /> "What color are you?"<br /> She takes a few deep breaths and manages to get an answer out. "White, although I'm Italian... Maybe olive?"<br /> White? Olive? What the heck is she talking about?<br /> "No, baby, what stoplight color are you? Green, yellow, or red? Do you need to safe word?"<br /> She stares at me for a minute before responding, "Safe word? We aren't having intercourse yet."<br /> Who gave this woman her safety spiel? A safe word can be used any time in any circumstance. Before I can tell her that, there is a loud, persistent knock at the door. I don't want to walk away while she is crying, but she doesn't want my comfort and the knock is insistent.<br /> I open the door to find a flustered Eric.<br /> "What?" I grit. "There better be an emergency if you're interrupting a session."<br /> "What file did you read? What did it say?" he rushes out, voice sounding slightly panicked.<br /> "The one for this room. New, probationary member into degradation and open to impact play, bondage, and a variety of toys," I repeat.<br /> he exclaims as he runs his hand though his fair. "I think the files got switched when Craig grabbed them. The one you read wasn't for her."<br /> "What?" I grouse. If that's true, this is a huge mix up and reflects terribly on the club. We need to figure this out now to make sure it is a one time issue caused at the desk and not a systematic error.<br /> I turn to the woman โ who has thankfully stopped crying and is now only sniffling โ that I will be right back. I take one last glance at her before I leave and head to meet Cole up front.<br /> When I return to the room a few minutes later, I am disappointed but not surprised to see she is gone. She must have left through the side stairs because I would have seen her walk by the desk. I read her file when I was there. She is not into degradation at all. In fact, she might be on the entire other end of the spectrum. No wonder she reacted the way she did. I hate that she ran out and I'm not able to fix this situation. There is no telling where this encounter left her emotionally.<br /> The idea that something I did could have hurt her sits heavy in my chest as I proceed to Cole's office to discuss what happened. I know the client relations team will try to follow up with her, but I doubt she'll respond. I could probably get into the application portal but that would be highly unethical and I would be guessing which profile was hers, anyway. Hopefully, she'll return to the club in the future and I can make it right. | LEARN_MORE | https://a.crazynovelapp.com/ad/TXlsaWIvMTYxNjE4LzI | 111756761980794 | Cra0006 | https://facebook.com/100094591900495 | 2 | 1 | 761,687,822,697,089 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Cra0006 | 120209178145040063 | a.crazynovelapp.com | NONE | video | https://a.crazynovelapp.com/ad/TXlsaWIvMTYxNjE4LzIwMjQwNDI1MTEwMTUyL3BhZ2U=?adid={{ad.id}} | 2024-04-24 22:05 | https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440282391_1141888033903036_8496384978755496462_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=100&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=8cMZ7uqEt3IAb68JWxl&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=00_AfAtn9dO73TTqY9Pb0BKaddXdtmzyKNkZrGlKnEBAE9ISQ&oe=66345685 | person_profile | 0 | Cra0006 | https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440121199_1169892787703490_1051077103668297236_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=kqYCwIW3DrIAb5npVrt&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=00_AfBTl_Tfg9w03tYpAouEC4P5M02GSU8TKlVexyD09RGN9g&oe=66344131 | 0 | 3 | Cra0006 | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-27 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Read next chapter | He married her to save his beloved, and cruelly used her, breaking her heart. After their divorce, he realized in anguish that he had been mistaken all alongโhis true love had always been his ex-wife.<br /> ======<br /> <br /> Chapter1 The truth about marrying her<br /> "Tammy, I'm sorry I hurt you." He stroked her soft hair and murmured. <br /> <br /> Tammy's scarred face hung with tears, and her tiny, naked body lay shivering in the strong man's arms. She was too shy to look up at him.<br /> <br /> Today was her wedding night. Just now, she ended the transformation from a girl to a woman.<br /> <br /> The man holding her in his arms at the moment was her husband Angus, a man could drive all women crazy.<br /> <br /> She had loved him for fifteen years.<br /> <br /> In the darkness, Angus stared at the little woman in his arms. His deep black eyes contained a coolness that was hard for others to guess.<br /> <br /> Tammy shook her head gently. Her face blushed.<br /> <br /> Although he was gentle, the pain was inevitable because it was her first time.<br /> <br /> However, she was happy enough that he didn't mind the scars on her face and that she was a poor little girl who had been living in exile for ten years.<br /> <br /> There was a ding, and his phone rang.<br /> <br /> Angus took the phone, looked at it, frowned, turned his head and said, "Tammy, I'm going out for a few minutes and I will come back soon. Wait for me."<br /> <br /> He bowed his head and gently kissed on her forehead.<br /> <br /> Angus switched on the light and got out of bed, tucking Tammy in and picking up a robe from the side and putting it on.<br /> <br /> Tammy watched as he left the room.<br /> <br /> Without his embrace, she was suddenly lost. She gripped the blanket restlessly at her chest. Her thin shoulders were out of the quilt, and they were covered with the marks of their love and affection.<br /> <br /> A few minutes passed and he didn't return. Tammy's loss grew stronger and stronger.<br /> <br /> She put on her pink nightgown and picked up the heart-shaped pendant carved from the wood on the bedside table and put it around her neck.<br /> <br /> It had been given to her by her mother before she died, and although it was worthless, she had worn it since she was a child.<br /> <br /> The pendant always soothed her anxious emotion.<br /> <br /> Tammy left the new house with a sweet smile on her face to find her husband.<br /> <br /> In the hallway, there was a sudden sound of talking.<br /> <br /> "Tammy's kidney was successfully paired with Sonia, and marrying her was just a way to get her to sign a consent form for the donation."<br /> <br /> It was Angus's voice. It was extraordinarily familiar to her, but it hurt her so much for a moment. His words were like a thunderbolt exploding in her head!<br /> <br /> Tammy's face went suddenly pale. Her hands clenched in fists, gripping the skirt of her nightgown so tightly that her whole body was as stiff as a stone. She seemed to have lost half her life.<br /> <br /> In the back of her mind, the words he'd said when he'd asked her to marry him emerged...<br /> <br /> "Tammy, you are a good girl, and I have no reason to marry any woman but you... "<br /> <br /> But then those words were like heavy slaps in her face!<br /> <br /> Tammy's kidney was paired with Sonia's and marrying her was just to get her to sign the donor consent form-...<br /> <br /> Tammy covered her mouth and shivered.<br /> <br /> She'd never agreed to donate her kidney, and she'd thought he'd married her because he loved her.<br /> <br /> But it turned out that he was the one who was going to trick her into donating a kidney for the woman he loved!<br /> <br /> The familiar figure not far away was as grand and tall as a king, with an elegant aristocratic air. Although the first time had only just been given to him, at the moment he was so strange to her!<br /> <br /> At this time, there came another voice with some flattery: "Oh, so that's it. Young Master Smith, why didn't you say so earlier. I thought you had let Sonia down. After all, she loves you so much, and you married Tammy as soon as she fell ill. It's hard for her not to think too much. Tammy is so vicious that she won't donate her kidney to save her sister. And you're the only one who can control her!"<br /> <br /> Chapter2 So it's all a trick<br /> The speaker was Tammy's stepmother, who was named Sue.<br /> <br /> When Tammy was nine years old, Sue was brought home by her father along with her sister who was older than Tammy. That girl was also her father's biological daughter.<br /> <br /> In other words, not long after her father and mother got married, he already had had an affair with another woman and had a daughter outside.<br /> <br /> At the time, her mother was already suffering from depression due to the hardships she had had in the marriage. And as a result, the incident completely overwhelmed her, causing her to become more and more mentally ill. Finally, her mother desperately tried to throw her out of the car window in a major car accident, while she was burned to death in the car.<br /> <br /> By the time her body was taken out, it was all charred...<br /> <br /> Tammy was only ten years old...<br /> <br /> Her mother was killed by Sue and her daughter, and her face and life were ruined by them.<br /> <br /> And now, they had joined forces and wanted her kidney!<br /> <br /> How could they be so bad? How could they do this to her?<br /> <br /> What did she do wrong?<br /> <br /> Tammy's tears rolled down like a river that had burst its banks!<br /> <br /> Angus, did you know that I've remembered you since I was five years old!<br /> <br /> But I loved you so much, and you trampled on my affection like this!<br /> <br /> His cruelty shattered all her hopes, and her world fell into obscurity.<br /> <br /> She thought she'd made it, but when the fog had lifted, she found that the destination she'd been running to wasn't heaven, but hell!<br /> <br /> Tammy gritted her teeth desperately and ran away back to her room!<br /> <br /> Angus's eyes were deep and dark. His voice had turned cold, "Tammy's kidneys can only be used when it's necessary."<br /> <br /> When he possessed her tonight, she was shaking all the time. She was so thin and fragile, so how could she carry the kidney removal surgery.<br /> <br /> When Sue heard this, she was immediately unhappy, but she didn't dare to show her anger, "Young Master Smith, what do you mean? Didn't you say you'd let her donate her kidney before marrying her? But why did you go back on your word?"<br /> <br /> Angus frowned and said sternly, "I have no regrets. If another suitable kidney is found before the operation, I will divorce her."<br /> <br /> Divorce.<br /> <br /> The thought of these words seemed to hit him hard heavily.<br /> <br /> Sue was about to say something else. Suddenly Angus paled and said indifferently, "Go away and don't let Tammy doubt you."<br /> <br /> His tone was full of strong command that made Sue pale!<br /> <br /> Although she had decided that she was Angus's future mother-in-law, she still shivered, not daring to say anything more. She turned away but a light flashed in her eyes.<br /> <br /> She would never let Tammy go!<br /> <br /> ......<br /> <br /> Tammy huddled in the corner of the room with her arms wrapped around her, shivering.<br /> <br /> Angus came in, and found no one in the room. He searched around, and suddenly noticed the curtains trembling faintly.<br /> <br /> He lifted the curtains and saw Tammy sitting on the floor, hugging her knees as if she was in some kind of shock. Her face was pale as a sheet.<br /> <br /> Angus was startled, "Tammy, what are you doing here?"<br /> <br /> Tammy clenched her teeth desperately, and she stared at him with her red eyes.<br /> <br /> Angus frowned. He was confused. "What's wrong with you? Get up first"<br /> <br /> Chapter3 You give up<br /> He bent down and put his hands under her armpits and picked her up.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Tammy was agitated and pushed him away hard, "Get off me!"<br /> <br /> She almost growled out.<br /> <br /> "......"<br /> <br /> Her attitude was so strange. Did she know anything?<br /> <br /> Instantly, his eyes went cold, "Did you know?"<br /> <br /> Tammy clenched her fists in grief, "Yes!"<br /> <br /> "......"<br /> <br /> Angus said coldly, "In that case, there's no need to pretend loving."<br /> <br /> It was clear that things had been revealed, and his cold tone seemed to tell her that there was no need for him to pretend to be gentle with her anymore.<br /> <br /> The air went cold, and Tammy's whole body became top-heavy as if all her insides had been emptied!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she was so out of breath that a sensation of her breath being blocked came over her, and she fell to the ground, covering her chest!<br /> <br /> Angus sensed something was wrong and immediately took her in his arms!<br /> <br /> "Tammy!" There was urgency in his voice.<br /> <br /> Tammy's breath quickened and she gripped the man's suit tie. Her tears gushed from her eyes, and her red eyes were full of indignation!<br /> <br /> "........"<br /> <br /> Angus didn't say much, but his face was unusually livid. He just picked Tammy up and put her on the bed.<br /> <br /> "Tammy, how are you feeling?" He patted her face gently, a fine layer of sweat covering his forehead.<br /> <br /> Tammy stared at him with wide and empty eyes. She gave him a sarcastic smile.<br /> <br /> If he'd been scared about her before, she'd have been happy. But now she just felt sick.<br /> <br /> He wasn't afraid she'd die, but he was afraid that he could not get her to sign the consent form!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Tammy sat up in bed, pushed him away, and got right off the bed!<br /> <br /> Angus frowned. He easily caught her back with his long arms and held her in his arms. He hugged her from behind, and his eyes were dark, "Where do you want to go?"<br /> <br /> "You let go of me!" Tammy shouted!<br /> <br /> Finally, monstrous anger erupted and she tried almost with all her might to break the man's hands that held her. Her nails almost sank into the back of his hands.<br /> <br /> Angus frowned and a chill crossed his face as he said coldly, "Stop it. Calm down!"<br /> <br /> "........"<br /> <br /> He's got the nerve to think she was making a scene?<br /> <br /> Tammy gritted her teeth, veins bulging on her forehead as she hissed, "Angus, how could you cheat on my feelings like that?!"<br /> <br /> She hated him so much!<br /> <br /> Angus closed his eyes and his breathing became a little faster. He easily clamped around her in his embrace. His strong and muscular muscles pressed against her back through the suit and her nightgown. His heartbeat strongly that almost crushed her thin and frail body.<br /> <br /> In the end, he opened his cold and heartless eyes with a frost that couldn't be melted, "Yes, I married you for your kidney, but..."<br /> <br /> He seemed to be trying to explain something else, but the words wouldn't come out of his mouth.<br /> <br /> After all, he was doing it for her kidney.

Victoria blocked the young woman's way.<br /> "I don't have any affairs with you Victoria. Where's Devon?" Ariel slowly enunciated trying to keep her cool.<br /> "He wouldn't waste even a little time with you. Leave!" Victoria dismissed her.<br /> "Devon! I know you're here! Please, let me explain!" Ariel continued shouting and pleading at the same time.<br /> "Shameless woman! LEAVE!!" The matriarch shouted.<br /> "No!"<br /> "You! You're the reason for all of these! You biss!" Ariel's patience suddenly depleted when she saw the wicked woman.<br /> "Devon!" The visitor hugged the man and pleaded with him.<br /> "Don't you dare lay a hand on her." Devon said without sparing a glance at the woman and quickly distanced himself from Ariel.<br /> "Why----"<br /> "She's pregnant with Devon's child," Victoria answered Ariel's unfinished question.<br /> "Noooooo!!!!" <br /> โโโโโโโโ<br /> Natalia's POV<br /> Oily skin? Check.<br /> Chapped lips? Check.<br /> Dry hair? Very check.<br /> This is me now. Natalia Yushkova. After being married for three freaking years, my marriage slowly ripped apart.<br /> Having the name of Yushkova attached to yours can make you into another whole person. Everything must be precise or much better--- perfect. All eyes are on you waiting for you to make mistake and be taunt countless of times.<br /> It all happened to me. And I cannot recall how many times. Thanks for my two-faced bestfriend that has been ALWAYS there for me whenever something funny happens.<br /> Oh yes. Always.<br /> Even inside our own home. We are currently residing at the Yushkova mansion. We never separated from my husband's parents. Never got to design our own bedroom, never got to do shopping for our curtains and never got to choose a paint for our own wall.<br /> Every move inside the house was being monitored. Heck, even our honeymoon was not even special and sacred.<br /> As I've said, my best friend, Ariel Zippi who's been with me through good and worst times, was and will always be compared to me.<br /> My mother-in-law, Victoria, would deliberately state at the whole family gatherings how she wish she has a daughter-in-law like Ariel. To the point she invited her to have a long term vacation at the Yushkova manor. Very considerate. I know!<br /> Being only a twenty-three year old housewife is not much of a great honor for me anymore. Most of the time, I am deprived of going out with my friends and seeing my own family.<br /> I have wasted my married life being the perfect wife I could never be for my husband, Devon and a perfect in-law his family could ever dreamed of.<br /> My husband keeps himself busy at the business empire his father, Euro, founded. I only see him every midnight and when my alarm hits six o'clock in the morning, he's already gone for work. He never defended me once and well, that's how life is unfair to me.<br /> As for the rest of his family, they treated me like a wall flower. Only necessary on gatherings such as tonight as well as in the moments of bantering.<br /> Later, we're having a celebration for our good-for-nothing wedding anniversary. Can't wait.<br /> Enough of this pretentious blissful household, this is one of few times that I will see my family. Oh how much I've missed them.<br /> Victoria sent a team of make up and fashion guru inside the master's bedroom to make sure I will be presentable in everyone's eyes. The experts looked at me from head to toe and their eyes expressed a shock tone. I'm not a ghost.<br /> You see, my skin is now pale white and my once toned body was reduced to a fragile looking one. I lost my sense of fashion and no one taught or criticized me about it. Totally invisible.<br /> "Natalia. So nice to see you. It's been few years since your wedding day." The fashion expert, Ziv, uttered.<br /> I didn't answer but gave him a peck on his cheeks in return to the same gesture he initiated.<br /> "Where are those clothes that I've pledged to give you every month?" He questioned me unhappily as he scanned me circling my body.<br /> Really? Hmm. Now I know where Ariel brought 'her' collectible custom made clothes from.<br /> "I've given it to a really close friend of mine. You know me, I don't want to repeat clothes. Forgive me?" I replied shrugging my shoulders and walked gracefully to my dresser.<br /> "Of course gem." Ziv answered. He was one of those few persons that I trust. He once told me that he knows what a true gem is when he sees one. He even called Ariel a barbie and a leech to which he earned a scolding from me back on the day of my wedding. He really do know what he says.<br /> Milda, the make up artist and also an elite in the industry, had done a great job on moisturizing my skin before caking me up and made my skin glow with no effort.<br /> "Many thanks to you two." I said from the bottom of my heart as I scanned myself on the mirror after three hours of beautification. There's no more trace of a haggard looking housewife. A glowing and fierce woman has resurfaced instead. My old self.<br /> "Ziv, as promised, I will give you three of my sketch designs." I uttered to the man.<br /> "Are you serious?! Give me! Give them to me!" He panicked in a good way and raised up his two hands to received from me.<br /> I walked towards my wardrobe chuckling and opened my vault. And there it is. My handmade folder full of sketches of clothes and jewelries. I have piles of it since it's only once a year that Ziv and I can converse and get together. The Yushkovas tapped my mobile phone and put tracker into it. Same goes with my laptop.<br /> Ziv made an 'N' clothing line bearing my designs that I have gifted him back in the days of me being a maiden.<br /> "Thank you for these my gem. My competitors will salivate again with these creations. Do not worry, the profit of N line is secured on your personal account under your maiden name." He winked at me.<br /> "I know I can trust you my friend." I uttered grinning.<br /> A secret. I earned millions from those sketches. I said to Ziv that I only need a portion of the gains but he gave me eighty percent instead. He said I deserved it as Ziv treated me as his consultant and that his name will be at the peak once my designs materialized. Which it did. He's now a worldwide respected fashion guru and creator.<br /> "Milda, as for you, a set of limited artist-designed jewelry by yours truly." I gave her a simple black box containing the trinkets. I owned a jewelry shop from my unmarried days---The Belle Shop. I have my dummy owner and CEO, Trish Vene, to take over the business before I got married.<br /> Why? Because the Yushkova family drafted a prenuptial agreement to the distate of Zimmer household, my family. So as to appeased my parents, I was forced to let go of my wealthy aspirations in life to protect what's mine and give a face to my family. Which I never regretted and I'm thankful for everyday.<br /> Seeing both of my friends joyful and satisfied, I've made my way to the party.<br /> As I descend, I was thinking of the last straw that ruined my daydreams of having a future loving family. It was when my unborn child died. My angel was just two months old, I believe, when I miscarriaged.<br /> At first, I didn't know that I was pregnant. Only my mother-in-law and bestfriend knew my real situation. I was naive to believed that I was sick and should take medications which harmed my angel on the process. Two years after, one of the maidservants told me of my real condition but was too late.<br /> She secretly brought the supposed-to-be-thrown ultrasound result from the hands of Victoria and proved that I was with an unborn child.<br /> Later that day, I cursed myself from being innocent from those things and let myself be a victim of those two vile women.<br /> From that day on, I wailed at unimaginable agony and saw the world in black and white.<br /> Deedee, the maid that confessed to me, served me faithfully from that day onwards. She's been my eyes and ears inside the mansion with no reward of bonus in return because she felt guilty at what happened to me.<br /> I've waited so long for this moment. The moment when I can be free of this narcissistic household. My patient tank has been empty for several months. I cannot take a little bit of mockery from them anymore. I've been a good wife and a person.<br /> I can no longer be.<br /> Wearing my Ziv tailored black evening gown adorned with my own limited edition of jewelry and a three-inch stiletto, I've graced the grand stairs of the Yushkova mansion looking for my husband.<br /> "Now, where is that cheater?"<br /> NATALIA'S POV<br /> Scanning the room, I quickly saw my spouse with none other than my bestfriend Ariel. From afar, you can observe that they are such a great pair. of Leeches.<br /> Devon, as always, looks dashing in his three piece black armani suit. He's such a good looking man in my eyes even up to now. No one can compare to him. His firm body and cold aura added to his oozing appeal.<br /> Clinging on his left arm is Ariel who wore a white evening gown in contrast to her dark alter ego. Victoria is on his right side and smiling like a goof to please everyone her husband and son is talking to. On my mother-in-law's right side is Euro who was talking with other business tycoons. A happy family indeed.<br /> I looked pass them and finally saw the apples of my eyes. The Zimmer family.<br /> Making my way to them, my father already saw me.<br /> "Little monster, I've missed you." Daniel, my dear father, uttered while hugging me tightly. I've missed him so much. My mother was no more of this world but I've never felt incomplete having him as a parent.<br /> "Piglet!" A brunette adonis-like man joined the family hug. He's my big brother, Jake, a bachelor but not a womanizer. He's a one-woman man just like my father.<br /> "You're skinny. Are you eating?" Jake voiced out scanning me from head to toe.<br /> "And you're nearing thirties, when can I have a niece or nephew? Don't worry I'm on a diet." I said in one breath and winked. My brother zipped his mouth with my first argument.<br /> "Where's Devon?" My father asked changing the topic. I just shrugged and got a drink from one of the walking servers.<br /> "That scum!" Jake hissed looking beyond me. I don't need to see who was at the receiving end of his cold stares. The leechers.<br /> I just smiled full of warmth. By the boost of the spirit drink that traveled through my throat, I felt a little bit courageous for the good show later.<br /> "I don't mind." I flatly said to them. My father looked at me knowingly and seemed to understand what I was communicating. You're absolutely right father. I already came to my senses.<br /> Devon and I had an arranged marriage. My father planned it because of my big infatuation with my husband. The Yushkova unfortunately agreed to the arrangement since my family's company is such a big catch.<br /> We have a technology and systems company. Currently, we are at the top and hoping for the years to come, too.<br /> Sadly, I didn't know any hacking techniques since I was on the artsy side of the spectrum. I wasn't able to study the intricacies of systems and hardwares for my emotions clouded my sober mind three years ago.<br /> A clink of glasses can be heard and I made my way to my dear husband.<br /> Standing before him, I felt nothing. I didn't spare him a look and impartially listened to the barbie who's giving the toast. How sweet.<br /> I wasn't paying attention for my mind floats to what I've prepared for later. I suddenly felt an arm encircling my fragile waist and was forced to look at the man I onced love.<br /> I was taken aback when his lips crushed into mine. It was warm and loving. I must be hallucinating.<br /> Our peck lasted longer than I have expected. I responded thinking I should act the part of a loving wife for this one last time.<br /> His peck was pleading and have a sense of longing but to no avail, my heart never falter and was cold. He licked my lower lip to ask for an entrance which I didn't grant. Cheater.<br /> When the peck ended, I tried to strengthen my legs and faced the crowd and bowed my head. I never looked at him during the process.<br /> For the audience, I looked like a demure wife after the magical moment which they accepted without any suspicion.<br /> 'Happy anniversary!' All of them greeted at the same time. I gave my best smile and planned to stay away from my husband for the rest of the night.<br /> He tightened his gripped on my waist.<br /> "Stay....Please...." Devon said. I looked at him and saw longing in his eyes. Oh, how much I've waited for that kind of look all these years. Too late.<br /> I leaned forward and whispered to his ear, "Ariel is looking." He loosened his arm that was clinging to my waist. I turned away and headed to the portable bar the party supplier had prepared.<br /> DEVON'S POV<br /> I saw her descending from the stairs. My lovely wife. She's a sight to behold with the black evening gown that accentuated her body on the right places. I felt warm looking at her and I can feel my lips curving upwards.<br /> She looked at my way and I gasped expecting she will come to me. She then averted her eyes to somewhere else in my dismay.<br /> "Mr. Yushkova, Mr. Wei of Cruise International." My assistant introduced which made me snapped back and discussed brief business matters with the senior capitalist.<br /> I unconsciously averted my eyes from the man and scanned the hall for my wife.<br /> I was transfixed with her smile, laughs and hugs while conversing with Daniel and Jake. How I wished I was the one receiving those precious reactions.<br /> Bored with the discussions around me, I have decided to approach her and my second family. My mother stopped my tracks.<br /> "Where are you going?" She whispered to me.<br /> "Going to Natalia." My wife.<br /> "There are more important things at hand here. These capitalists are rare to be seen and hard to interact with. We must make a good and lasting impression." My mother reminded me that she purposely invited all these money makers at the expense of our anniversary. I sighed. My father gave his nod in agreement, too.<br /> I stared again to my wife from afar. Maybe after this, we will have the time of our own. For sure.<br /> After quite awhile, to my relief, Ariel let go of my arm and proposed a toast for Natalia and I.<br /> Then I saw my wife gracefully walked towards me holding her head high. Her long dark hair was bouncing on every step and her hips mildly swayed as she stride forward. She is and will always be the phoenix in my eyes. No one can compare to her.<br /> I know I have been busy with our company expanding it to what it is today. Now, I have the luxury to spent more time with my wife.<br /> Standing beside me, Natalia never looked my way. I felt something's wrong. I instinctively put my one arm around her waist.<br /> Look at me. I silently pleaded.<br /> At last, she spared me her eyes but they were void of any expression. Flashes of bitter memories of her being laughed at and bullied crossed my mind.<br /> No. My mind shouted knowing what that look means.<br /> Without waiting for the start of the actual toast, I crushed my lips to hers. In my surprise, Natalia responded with my peck. I missed us.<br /> After that sweet moment, I looked at her, hopeful that she felt the same emotions that I have. A warm one. But it didn't come. She avoided my gaze once again and bowed her head. My heart became heavy. Throbbing.<br /> As I looked at her side, I tried to imprint her elegant face, her smile and her frame in my mind as if it will be the last time. I tightened my arm around her not wanting to let go. I pleaded with her the second time.<br /> 'Stay...Please...' by my side forever. I will make it up to you.<br /> My heart skipped when she tiptoed and leaned towards the left side of my face.<br /> 'Ariel is looking', she whispered. I was stunned by her words. Then she took the liberty to turned around and walked away.<br /> My world crushed before me. Turn around. Come back to me. Please.<br /> But she never did.<br /> THIRD PERSON'S POV<br /> A graceful woman with a black designer off-shoulder evening dress approached the bar. She planted herself on a seat beside a person who was silently observing her the moment she entered the party.<br /> That person noticed how the woman mingled with her family;<br /> saw her sipped at the glass of spirit that the woman in a white dress offered her for the toast;<br /> felt her cold presence from beginning to the end of the peck;<br /> saw her whispered to her husband and turned away to distanced herself.<br /> A smirk crept on the observer's face while drinking a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.<br /> 'Interesting.' The person thought.<br /> The woman separated herself from the hideous world she's in. A bitter smile adorned her lips as if she now understood the reality of that world.<br /> "Young madam, anything you prefer?" The bartender inquired after recognizing her.<br /> The woman looked ahead and crinkled her brows at the question. Natalia glanced sideways and came to a conclusion.<br /> "Whatever he's having." She simply pointed at the person beside her without sparing a glance.<br /> "Taste it first." A baritone voice came out from the stranger. The man stood beside her and handed down his drink on the counter.<br /> Natalia's senses rose up at the hot soothing sound that crossed her ears. She shook her head and just stared at the glass contemplating. Her full lips pouted for a quick moment.<br /> She, nonetheless, accepted the offer. She took hold of the transparent chalice, gave it a swirl, sniffed and earned a sip.<br /> The man amusingly observed how the woman arched her chin up and got a full view of her perfect neck.<br /> The lady satisfied her unquenchable thirst as she took sip after sips until she emptied the glass. The woman realized what she had done and smiled helplessly at herself.<br /> Before she can utter an apology and take a glance at the man beside her, the stranger took hold of the new spirit glass that the bartender served the woman and left*.<br /> "Ladies and gentlemen, the cutting of the cake." The master of ceremonies announced. The married couple made their way at the center of the hall. Some of the audience smiled thoughtfully as if remembering their own experience of the tradition.<br /> Natalia looked around to marked the server that will supposedly tripped and accidentally pushed her forward to land on the five-tier cake. 'Ah. There you are.'<br /> She positioned herself on the left side of Devon where her bestfriend was used to be. On her peripheral vision, Natalia saw Ariel not far from her husband's right side. His family was on the right side too, while hers was on the left part.<br /> Three. Two. One.<br /> The server fall on Natalia's back but another one also tripped and incidentally pushed Ariel on the spot.<br /> The whole scene happened in a slow motion course on Natalia's eyes.<br /> She saw how Ariel screamed and how Devon left her side to support her bestfriend while she silently closed her eyes bracing for the impact. Reality stinks.<br /> The room was quiet after the fiasco. Devon saved Ariel from the fall leaving his wife of the same fate and giving the spectators some pondering as to why he instinctively helped the other woman.<br /> Natalia opened her eyes and miraculously felt safe. One sturdy hand rested on her stomach and another one supported her upper left arm.<br /> "Careful." A low soothing voice echoed in her ears. It sounded familiar she thought.<br /> Natalia looked at the person who produces such reassuring tone. Standing beside her was a six-feet-tall man with a breathtaking visage paired with honey-colored eyes.<br /> His aloof demeanor far exceeded her husband's. The man emits authority that no one can overpowered. He was simply astonishing and she regarded him as the most outstanding facade she had ever seen.<br /> Natalia was grateful but at the same time scared of what the man can do on any given situation.<br /> "Thank you very much." She muttered weakly as she tried to compose herself. Her knees became weak as her nose landed the smell of his minty aftershave. And her stomach felt they were full of butterflies. Weird.<br /> She broke away from the man's support and glanced at the leeches. Devon looked at her with guilty eyes. She hanged down her sight and kept her silence. No one saw how a small smile crept to her face.<br /> In addition, Daniel and Jake's face were red enough showing that they will not forget and forgive this moment. Their silent deadly glares penetrated the bones of the Yushkova family.<br /> The emcee was put on an awkward situation. They all saw what happened and couldn't continue with the cake tradition not wanting to offend the Zimmers anymore and their lovely young madam.<br /> The host changed the atmosphere when he invited the crowd to eat the first course meal. The servers then efficiently handed down the plates on each table.<br /> Natalia then reassured her family that she's actually fine and exited the hall discreetly with a graceful escape. Freedom.<br /> Unaware, the stranger knew of her departure and unconsciously walked the same steps she left behind.<br /> #######<br /> "Mister Gates?" A woman called for the man's attention.<br /> "Mister Alexander Gates?" The woman repeated when the man didn't reply. She abruptly blocked his path when she noticed the important man leaving the hall.<br /> "Yes, madam...?" His assistant, Sergei, answered instead. He stepped forward preventing the middle-aged woman to have a physical contact with his boss. One of Alexander's personal guards stepped in, too.<br /> "It's Victoria Yushkova. This is my husband Euro." The man just looked at her lazily.<br /> Victoria was still in awe of his presence. No one dared to approach him at the party earlier because of his indifferent presence. Having that kind of aura makes him more attractive to any woman of any age.<br /> Standing tall with a Stuart Hughes' three-piece black suit, Alexander waited patiently for his assistant to deal with the random people.<br /> "Mr. Gates is a bit tired. Excuse us." The assistant told them flatly. He's great at doing his job of filtering important people from those who aren't.<br /> Right now, his boss was chasing a very important individual.<br /> Reluctantly, the Yushkova couple let go of the matter for they do not want to offend a big personality like the Gates. Alexander is the heir of the biggest hotel and restaurant chain in the world --- the Zion Group of Companies.<br /> Victoria invited him with the connection that her maternal grandmother was acquainted with the Gates. Fortunately, the man attended the celebration. His brief presence is enough to set a big path for their Yushkova empire.<br /> "Sir, this way." Sergei told his boss. He led Alexander to a secluded roof terrace and leave quickly.<br /> Meanwhile, the woman at the terrace was very engrossed in her thoughts as she looked at the night sky. A lonesome tear escapes her left eye as her sweet faint laugh illuminates her surroundings.<br /> The man observing from the dark corner made sure that the woman is safe and then took his leave.<br /> "Sergei, make Simon and Zeb watch over her. Also...give me all the details of the Yushkovas and the Zimmers." He ordered.<br /> "On it." His assistant simply replied. | LEARN_MORE | https://a.read4funs.com/ad/ZmFuY3lOb3ZlbC8xNjMyNzE | 136560499545717 | ForFun-105 | https://facebook.com/61552095643555 | 36 | 1 | 1,205,275,127,296,770 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | ForFun-105 | 120207942384490019 | a.read4funs.com | NONE | video | https://a.read4funs.com/ad/ZmFuY3lOb3ZlbC8xNjMyNzEvMjAyNDA0MjYxMzQ0MzYvcGFnZQ==?adid={{ad.id}} | 2024-04-26 00:49 | https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/439866894_805222147685335_3460283543300169129_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=ubLQYkgVFEUAb4XYWbL&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBgXCg8fTal9tcWrSKLXwyVZQjh0vFrkyAe44TRbh70lw&oe=66343A25 | person_profile | 0 | ForFun-105 | https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/439841395_833074098854847_1349645988777978573_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=XVMuJ2FFdr0Ab5MUjlf&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=00_AfA8pTY7asTgNqkEYAWw5KQmD8lhRnol7LZN0N5HL2K6Ww&oe=66344375 | 0 | 3 | ForFun-105 | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-27 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Love Unbreakable | She was full of anticipation to introduce him to her grandmother, but she bumped into him hugging his first love...<br /> =============<br /> <br /> Chapter 1 Ex-girlfriend Returns<br /> <br /> Raegan Hayes was a little absent-minded at the moment. <br /> <br /> All she could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words. "Congratulations! You are going to be a mom."<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Mitchel Dixon pinched her arm. His low voice came the next second. "Come back to earth. What are you thinking about?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel was her husband. They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group. <br /> <br /> Everything had happened so fast. She was newly employed in the company when they unexpectedly got married. <br /> <br /> At that time, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish. <br /> <br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public. Their union could be terminated at any time. <br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time. <br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed. <br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working. <br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years. <br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband. <br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the medical report. <br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel this news. <br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then. <br /> <br /> Just then, Mitchelโs phone rang. He went to the balcony and answered the phone. <br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight. <br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this hour? <br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned and changed into formal attire. His handsome face which had a clear outline made him look dignified. <br /> <br /> He was something to see now. <br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally. <br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour? <br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the report tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said, "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door. <br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him. <br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously. <br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other. <br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy. <br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry. <br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind. She couldn't sleep a wink. <br /> <br /> After tossing and turning for a long time, she went to the kitchen and made herself a warm glass of milk. <br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone. <br /> <br /> However, she wasn't interested in them. She was about to swipe them away when one of them caught her attention. The familiar name made her click on it. <br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing. <br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped. <br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture! <br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport? <br /> <br /> This realization settled like a boulder in Raegan's gut, rendering her flustered. <br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number. <br /> <br /> The dial tone brought her back to her senses. Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end. <br /> <br /> "Hello!"<br /> <br /> It was a particularly gentle woman's voice. <br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away. <br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time. <br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money. <br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores. <br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had. <br /> <br /> Matteo was the only Dixon Group employee who knew about their marriage. <br /> <br /> Since inception, only male assistants were hired for the president's office. Reagan was the first and only female. Her employment broke the protocol. As a result, other workers couldn't help but wonder if she was involved with Mitchel. <br /> <br /> It took a while before they realized that Mitchel never gave Raegan special treatment. Strangely, this made them despise her even more. <br /> <br /> After all, no one would last long in anything while taking advantage of their looks.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office. <br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't return home last night. Raegan was so worried that she didn't sleep at all. <br /> <br /> All she kept thinking about was the woman who answered his phone when she called. What was her relationship with Mitchel?<br /> <br /> Raegan already knew the answer to that, but she was still in denial. <br /> <br /> It was difficult for her to come to terms with that fact. <br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right? <br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good. <br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly. <br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's. <br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice. <br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly. <br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears. <br /> <br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object. <br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document. <br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again. <br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head. <br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice. <br /> <br /> The woman was indeed Lauren! <br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder! <br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart. <br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry. <br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside. <br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 2 One-sided Love<br /> <br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out. <br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document. <br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome. <br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed? <br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance. <br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold. <br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying. <br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone. <br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well. <br /> <br /> In the elevator. <br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work. <br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love. <br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream. <br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love. <br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened. <br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea. <br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside. <br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's nothing to Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her. <br /> <br /> The love was one-sided. <br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, have you finally woken up from your wild dream, Raegan?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her. <br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping. <br /> <br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way. <br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that. <br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "Maybe itโs time for you to seek out another man, you pathetic fool."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, if you are interested in that kind of thing, feel free to pursue it yourself."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan's retort made Tessa's face change. <br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of coffee on Raegan. <br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee drenched her clothes. <br /> <br /> Raegan frowned. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers. <br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just an orphan? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by Raeganโs shove. <br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would shove her. <br /> <br /> Tessa stuttered, "You... You pushed me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, she lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it. <br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this. <br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, poised to retaliate. <br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so that the latter couldn't move another inch. <br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, she struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap. <br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your hands on me? Who do you think you are?"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room. <br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo. <br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent. <br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him. <br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan humiliated her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, she bullied me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face. <br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at her clothes which were soaked with coffee. <br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> <br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears. <br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment. <br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure. <br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes. <br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand. <br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words. <br /> <br /> Was she truly insignificant to him?<br /> <br /> Scared to death by Mitchel's rage, the crowd soon dispersed. A few employees were bold enough to peep from a distance, unwilling to miss the good show. <br /> <br /> Mitchel's cold eyes made Raegan shiver from head to toe. <br /> <br /> Raegan pinched her palm to suppress her emotions as she looked at Tessa. <br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, Ms. Lloyd. As an employee of the Dixon Group, it was wrong of me to have offended you."<br /> <br /> Eyeing Raegan, Tessa raised her chin complacently. "Humph! Don't think you'll be let off the hook just by making a simple apology. I don't buy..."<br /> <br /> "The offence has nothing to do with the company. Personally, I refuse to apologize to you. Now, if you'd excuse me," Raegan chimed in. <br /> <br /> She then walked past Mitchel without sparing him another look. <br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Tessa's face turned blue after hearing what Raegan said. <br /> <br /> Never in her years of being alive had she been so humiliated. She was always the bully, not the victim! <br /> <br /> The humiliation was so much that scolding Raegan wouldn't appease her anger. <br /> <br /> Pointing in Raegan's direction, Tessa shouted, "Mitchel, did you hear what that woman just said? She humiliated me, yet she's still so arrogant. Call her back. I have to teach her some manners!"<br /> <br /> Mitchel, staring at Raegan's thin back, had an ambiguous expression at this moment. <br /> <br /> "Enough!" he said coldly, raising his hand. <br /> <br /> As someone who lived and breathed drama and cruelty, Tessa didn't think Mitchel was partial to Raegan just now. She assumed that Mitchel didn't care about Raegan at all. <br /> <br /> Tessa gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Next time, I'll get someone to teach her a lesson."<br /> <br /> "Tessa!" Mitchel's tone and squint made it a reproof. <br /> <br /> Tessa trembled at once. <br /> <br /> With a somber face, Mitchel said, "I'll only say it once. Forget about what happened here today. Leave Raegan alone."<br /> <br /> The aura he exuded made her tongue go dry. All the vicious ideas she had in store against Raegan disappeared in an instant. <br /> <br /> She stammered, "Ok... Okay, got it..."<br /> <br /> Mitchel cast a cold glance at her and spoke to Matteo. "Irrelevant people wouldn't be allowed in here from today onwards."<br /> <br /> Without catching the drift, Tessa flattered Mitchel. "Nice call. This is a top company. Not everyone gains access in here."<br /> <br /> Matteo nodded to Mitchel and then walked over to Tessa. He gestured to the exit. "Ms. Lloyd, this way, please."<br /> <br /> It wasn't until this moment that Tessa realized that she was the irrelevant person Mitchel just mentioned. She tried to speak to him, but Matteo blocked her way. The security guards then escorted her out. <br /> <br /> They showed her no mercy. Her struggle was useless. <br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Raegan got changed when she returned to her office. <br /> <br /> Her heart was filled with sadness as she thought of how Mitchel looked at her minutes ago. <br /> <br /> Closing hour soon rolled by. <br /> <br /> Raegan took her bag and headed for the exit. However, Matteo stopped her. <br /> <br /> He said, "Mr. Dixon has something urgent to deal with, so he asked me to drive you home."<br /> <br /> Raegan declined the ride without thinking twice. <br /> <br /> She was blind before, but now she could see through the situation. <br /> <br /> In Mitchel's eyes, she was just a nobody. <br /> <br /> How could Mitchel agree to accompany her to visit her grandmother when he didn't even care about her? <br /> <br /> Upon arriving at the hospital, Raegan saw that the nurse was about to feed her grandmother dinner. Raegan took the job over and did it by herself. <br /> <br /> All her life, her grandmother had been living in the countryside, enjoying a quiet life. Everything changed last month when her routine medical checkup showed that she was in need of medical care. Raegan insisted on bringing her to the city for better treatment. <br /> <br /> Her grandmother wasn't aware of her marriage to Mitchel. <br /> <br /> Raegan had planned to surprise her today. But as it turned out, that was no longer necessary. <br /> <br /> Raegan waited for her grandmother to fall asleep before she left. She walked out of the hospital and waited for a taxi. <br /> <br /> In the distance, a black luxury car pulled into the entrance of the hospital. <br /> <br /> Raegan's eyes lit up when she saw it. She recognized that car as Mitchel's. <br /> <br /> Did he come to pick her up? <br /> <br /> At this moment, she forgot all the pain she had been feeling. <br /> <br /> Were her thoughts about him all wrong? Did he care for her, contrary to the gossip? <br /> <br /> The door of the driver's side opened and Mitchel got out. <br /> <br /> Raegan started walking toward him with her heart brimming with joy. <br /> <br /> Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks. <br /> <br /> Mitchel had just walked over to the other side and carried a woman out of the car. <br /> <br /> Worry and compassion were written all over his handsome face. <br /> <br /> This wiped the smile on Raegan's face. Her heart sank. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 3 Let's Divorce<br /> <br /> Mitchel's tall and straight figure got closer and closer to Raegan. And then, without saying a word, he strode past Raegan. <br /> <br /> It was hard to tell if Mitchel saw Raegan or just ignored her. <br /> <br /> Regardless, Raegan noticed that the woman in his arms was the same one who had been photographed with him yesterday. <br /> <br /> She was Lauren. <br /> <br /> Raegan's shoes felt like they were made of lead as she walked away. <br /> <br /> She lost all awareness of her surroundings. She got into a taxi absentmindedly. <br /> <br /> Suddenly, the driver uttered, "Ma'am, where to?"<br /> <br /> Raegan was stunned for a moment. <br /> <br /> She didn't want to go back to Serenity Villas. It was only a matter of time before that place stopped being her home. <br /> <br /> After a while, she replied, "Please take me to Crystal Bay."<br /> <br /> She had purchased an apartment at Crystal Bay after getting married to Mitchel. <br /> <br /> At the time, she had hopes of bringing her grandmother to the city, so she bought the apartment on mortgage. It wasn't that big, but it had more than enough space for two people. <br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't understand why she wanted to buy an apartment. He offered to give her a bigger one, but she declined. <br /> <br /> Looking back now, she realized that buying that apartment was the only wise decision she had ever made in the last two years. <br /> <br /> When she arrived at the apartment complex, Raegan sat in the park alone, trying to cool herself down. <br /> <br /> The memories of the past two years were bittersweet. <br /> <br /> Two years had passed in the blink of an eye even though it was more than seven hundred days and nights. <br /> <br /> Love could move mountains, they said. <br /> <br /> Yet, her love didn't move that stone of a man. She finally realized what a fool she had been. She had been making herself a laughingstock in front of everyone. <br /> <br /> It was already late in the night before Raegan finally decided to go into her apartment. <br /> <br /> As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Mitchel standing in front of the door. <br /> <br /> His sleeves were rolled up casually, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone, which revealed his long neck and part of his collarbone. He was leaning on the wall by the door, his handsome face straight. <br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a moment. <br /> <br /> Why was he here? Didn't she see him at the hospital with Lauren? What brought him here? <br /> <br /> Their eyes met. With his coat draped over his arm and one of his hands in his pocket, Mitchel squinted at her. <br /> <br /> "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked, sounding a little grumpy like someone who hadn't slept in a long time. <br /> <br /> Raegan took out her phone and saw she had accidentally put it on DND. <br /> <br /> There were five missed calls from Mitchel. <br /> <br /> This marked the first time in their two-year marriage. <br /> <br /> Mitchel blew up her phone because he couldn't find her? Surprising! <br /> <br /> Before today, she would have been overjoyed by this. People would've thought she won the lottery. <br /> <br /> But now, she just threw her phone back into her bag, folded her arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it ring."<br /> <br /> Mitchel raised his hand to check the time on the watch, and said impatiently, "I've been looking for you for two hours."<br /> <br /> After arranging everything for Lauren, he returned home to find an empty house. He looked for Raegan everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he asked Matteo to check the surveillance footage of all the roads that led away from the company. <br /> <br /> He later found out that Raegan went to Crystal Bay without telling him. <br /> <br /> "Next time, tell me when you are coming here, okay? Let's go home now." After that, Mitchel walked toward the elevator without sparing her another glance. <br /> <br /> He meant to go back to Serenity Villas. <br /> <br /> Raegan didn't move an inch. She just stared at his broad back and pondered reluctantly. <br /> <br /> Would they have a future? <br /> <br /> Mitchell turned around, only to see that Raegan hadn't taken a single step. He frowned and asked, "Can't you walk? Do you want me to carry you instead?"<br /> <br /> The light in the corridor illuminated his face, making his side profile almost impeccable. <br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and said, "Let's divorce."<br /> <br /> "What do you mean?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately. <br /> <br /> "I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon."<br /> <br /> Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit. <br /> <br /> "We will be strangers?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel smiled coldly. "Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?"<br /> <br /> His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment. <br /> <br /> Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate. <br /> <br /> Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him. <br /> <br /> His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn't let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn't be more wrong... <br /> <br /> After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don't have to come here again."<br /> <br /> After saying that, Raegan couldn't help but burst into tears. <br /> <br /> How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time. <br /> <br /> Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go. <br /> <br /> It was high time she stopped being a fool. <br /> <br /> Strangely, the light in the corridor began flickering. <br /> <br /> The deathly stare Mitchel was giving Raegan right now made the atmosphere seem like the moment before an attack in a horror movie. <br /> <br /> Although he understood that Raegan sometimes could throw a tantrum, he felt that she had just crossed the line now. <br /> <br /> His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, "If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I..."<br /> <br /> "No, this isn't about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now."<br /> <br /> A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn't come close to any. <br /> <br /> Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door. <br /> <br /> Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness. <br /> <br /> He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist. <br /> <br /> "Stop this, will you?"<br /> <br /> A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms. <br /> <br /> He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire. <br /> <br /> "You have a fever?"<br /> <br /> Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly. <br /> <br /> This made the whole situation complicated. <br /> <br /> Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back. <br /> <br /> Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, "Where do you think you are going?"<br /> <br /> The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up. <br /> <br /> He then headed for the elevator. <br /> <br /> In a daze, Raegan asked softly, "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "What does it look like I am doing?" Mitchel remarked. "Taking you to the hospital, of course."<br /> <br /> "No way!" Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength. <br /> <br /> Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel's arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless. <br /> <br /> "Don't be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor," Mitchel said firmly. <br /> <br /> He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan's heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest. <br /> <br /> "Put me down! I don't want to go to the hospital!"<br /> &5& | WATCH_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-E | 109739908479801 | Love Story House | https://facebook.com/100083774743284 | 22,948 | 1 | 1,078,232,883,282,616 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | Watch more | 0 | Love Story House | 120209151430790681 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | image | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-ENJ57_8-Core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=091588&accid=940472107588486 | 2024-04-28 02:02 | https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440565960_805051141684724_699307375454394465_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=110&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=5EZ0Y89XudQAb4fG3Si&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCBVqjrUyTxxco4vFIMWEb0Wx0OosMlfi-KbI8Jg8hm_g&oe=663466E8 | person_profile | 0 | Love Story House | https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440446445_450605067418043_1937417807453275724_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=BhROWvsfgbgAb5mut6L&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=00_AfCELZMSF3hc7to-4jiHtKSCgB0aJ-Thu0ZepEt8y3NOxA&oe=6634372C | 0 | 3 | Love Story House | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-28 02:00 | View Edit Delete | ||||||||||||||||||||

As I went to walk past him his hand shot out and he grabbed my arm.<br /> "You're playing with fire little one". Feeling his breath fan against my neck a shiver rocked through my body. He was to close.<br /> "Shaking your little hip for all these guys".<br /> What?<br /> "Jake get out of my way". <br /> "Come dance on me like that". Every time he moved closer I took a step back. "Come dance your little hip on my shaft. I mean if you're giving them out". He smirked.<br /> Pushing past him I ran towards the booth to collect my things. I wanted to go home. <br /> ...<br /> As I felt his hand on my back I shrugged him off. I didn't want his help.<br /> "Leah". he sighed.<br /> "Go away". I cried cursing myself for howI sounded.<br /> "Baby you're drunk and you're hurt. I'm not going anywhere".<br /> "Jake". I whined.<br /> "I danced that way tonight because I wasn't shaking my hip for all those guys. I was shaking my hip for you".<br /> I want to be near you all the time, I want to touch you, I want you to touch me". Reaching my hand over I grabbed his arm. "I've never felt like this before...<br /> <br /> โโโโโโโโ<br /> "This is my second day here".<br /> "And you've already been invited to one of Jake Taylors parties". Whistling lowly I frowned. What was that suppose to mean?<br /> "He's a big deal in this town".<br /> "He's a prick". I grinned causing him to laugh.<br /> "I like the way you think Leah" Hitting his bottle off mine we fell into silence. "So you're not his biggest fan then?". I asked.<br /> "Hm I wouldn't say that. I used to date his sister" He whispered. "But we're cool we ended things on a good note and it was a mutual decision but I still get the feeling he hates my guts".<br /> "With they way he's glaring at you I think you may be right". He hadn't taken his eyes of us from the moment we sat down.<br /> "And that's my queue to call it a night. Hopefully see you around".<br /> Once again I was left on my own.<br /> "This seat taken?"<br /> "Depends, are you going to glare at me the full time you sit there?". Glancing up my eyes landed on his. Deep brown eyes stared down at me. It was like he could see into my soul.<br /> "Think we got off on the wrong foot little one". As he sat down my heartbeat quicken,my palms were becoming sweaty. The pull I had to this man wasn't right but it felt right.<br /> I wanted to be near him. I wanted to know him.<br /> "I'm Leah". I smiled holding out my hand.<br /> "Jake". Placing his hand it mine it was like something I had never felt before.<br /> <br /> ---<br /> As we pushed through the double doors to get into the main part of the club my eyes widened.<br /> It was massive.<br /> All I could see was colours.<br /> Girls dancing on poles.<br /> The bar area was mobbed.<br /> As soon as I felt the hands on my hips my eyes opened. The guy grinned at me. Spinning me around I inched closer to him, our hips moved together.<br /> With my hand on his chest I moved him back. Turning around I rocked my hips taking myself to the floor I grabbed the back of his legs.<br /> I didn't realise I had caught the attention of others on the dance floor.<br /> I was to caught up in the music, to caught up on the dancing to realise what was going on. The crowd parted like the red sea.<br /> I stopped moving. The song playing suddenly forgotten about. Grabbing a hold of the guy I was dancing with I pushed him behind me.<br /> "That hunk of meat your boyfriend?". He whispered in my ear. "Knew you'd have a hottie here as soon as your little hip hit the dance floor. He's smoking". He whispered.<br /> "I'm Jordan". He grinned as Jake was fast approaching.<br /> "Leah". Swallowing the lump in my throat I had no idea what was about to happen.<br /> He wasn't happy. His hands were balled into fists and his teeth were clenched.<br /> This reminded me of what happened earlier today.<br /> He stood directly in front of me but he was glaring at Jordan. He had no right. He wasn't my boyfriend, he didn't get a say in who I danced with.<br /> "Move". He growled causing the hairs on my arms to stand.<br /> Jordan decided to take it upon himself and take the lead on this one and I didn't know if he was going to walk out of here in one piece.<br /> "Your hot little girlfriend has some moves on her". Oh god he was trying to get himself killed. Nostrils flaring he took a step closer.<br /> Jake's reaction was priceless.<br /> Jordan took both my hands in his.<br /> "Seriously girl you can dance. You had every guy and girl in here glued to that nice little body of yours. Hit me up if you ever want to go out". Slipping a piece of paper into my bra he smooched my cheek. "Hope you pick up that phone". Winking at me he disappeared through the crowd.<br /> The music was blaring, people were dancing around us but he was still stood hands balled and glaring. I wasn't going to let him ruin my night. I had just danced in a club in front of hundreds of people. He wasn't getting to ruin my buzz. I wouldn't allow it.<br /> "Excuse me". As I went to walk past him his hand shot out and he grabbed my arm.<br /> "You're playing with fire little one". Feeling his breath fan against my neck a shiver rocked through my body. He was to close.<br /> "Shaking your little hip for all these guys".<br /> What?<br /> Moving back I grabbed my arm out of his grip and glared at him. I was dancing for me, I was dancing because I love it. I wasn't dancing for any guy. He had some nerve.<br /> His hot and cold attitude was starting to piss me off.<br /> What was his deal?<br /> "Jake get out of my way". I said trying to see if I could spot Alanna in the crowd.<br /> "Come dance on me like that". Every time he moved closer I took a step back. "Come dance your little hip on my shaft. I mean if you're giving them out". He smirked.<br /> Now I was angry.<br /> "Stay away from me Jake I mean it".<br /> Pushing past him I ran towards the booth to collect my things. I wanted to go home. He had managed to ruin my night and now that the adrenaline had left my body I think I might have just broken my hand.<br /> <br /> ---<br /> "Leah, hey what has happened?".<br /> Alanna was helping me to my feet but I pushed her away. I just wanted to get home and away from here, away from him.<br /> "Hey". Alanna yelled.<br /> "Ask your brother Alanna". Wiping my eyes I pushed my way through the crowd in the main club area and tried to find the exit.<br /> Pushing the double doors I sighed when the cold air hit my face.<br /> Looks like my night could get worse.<br /> Leaning my head against my knees I turned it to the side. I felt his presence beside me but I wasn't interested. I didn't care what he had to say. After what he said to me in there. I didn't want to be around him anymore.<br /> I was silent crying. I had to bite my lip to stop myself from making any noise. I didn't want him to see me cry. I didn't want him to think of me as weak. As I felt his hand on my back I shrugged him off. I didn't want his help.<br /> "Leah". he sighed.<br /> "Go away". I cried cursing myself for howI sounded.<br /> "Baby you're drunk and you're hurt. I'm not going anywhere".<br /> I didn't reply. The rain was getting heavier.<br /> Everyone was starting to leave the club and make their way home. Still I sat in the pouring rain with my head against my knees.<br /> "Leah". He sounded frustrated.<br /> "Go away Jake I don't need your help". <br /> โYou'll catch the cold if you sit here any longer. At least wait inside until I can get someone to drive you home".<br /> He followed my every movement.<br /> "Just let me drive you home". He snapped.<br /> "What, no take me home". I demanded. I just wanted to go home, crawl into bed and forget all about this night.<br /> "No". His voice was stern.<br /> There was no point in arguing. He was the driver and I clearly had no say. <br /> "Jake". I whined.<br /> "Leah close your eyes and try to sleep". As he started the car I leaned my head against the window and just stared at him.<br /> "I danced that way tonight because I knew you were watching. I wasn't shaking my hip for all those guys. I was shaking my hip for you".<br /> His jaw clenched.<br /> "You do things to my body Jake. I want to be near you all the time, I want to touch you, I want you to touch me". Reaching my hand over I grabbed his arm. "I've never felt like this before. I feel attached to you in ways I can't even explain. I'm so confused".<br /> I cried. "Why do I feel like this? If Jack wasn't in your kitchen tonight I would have made out with you on the kitchen floor". Suddenly the car came to a stop. "I want you Jake Taylor and I have no idea why".<br /> "Leah babe you need to stop talking and just rest. We're nearly home". He was holding onto the steering wheel so tight his knuckles were turning white.<br /> "You make me feel alive". I whispered.<br /> "Being close to you is all it takes. You turn me on so much". I moaned feeling that sweet little feeling build in the pit of my stomach. "Touch me Jake please". I begged.<br /> "Leah" He growled.<br /> Within seconds I was out cold...<br /> -<br /> The next day.<br /> "Why were you in my bed?" I shouted when I woke up on the bed.<br /> Why was Jake in my bed?<br /> Glancing down at my hand a sigh fell from my lips, bits and pieces started coming back to me. His kitchen and the way I acted,the nightclub. I punched him.<br /> Then there was the car ride home, the things I said to him. Feeling my cheeks heated up, I tried to stifle the giggle. I didn't want to wake him just yet.<br /> "What are you laughing at princess?".<br /> "Why are you in my bed?". I asked to lift the covers gently. I didn't have the clothes on that I wore last night.<br /> "I think you'll find this is my bed". His voice was groggy and full of sleep. He wasn't under the covers and he was still fully clothed.<br /> I was in his bed?<br /> "Why am l in your bed?". Why didn't he take me home? My gran will be sick with worry.<br /> She was going to be so pissed that I didn't check in with her.<br /> "How much of last night do you remember?".<br /> "Enough to know I won't be drinking ever again. Although I feel fine just my hand that's sore". And maybe a little bit of my dignity trashed.<br /> "Pain killers and coffee coming right up".<br /> Winking at me he left the room closing the door quietly behind him. This morning was going better than I expected. I had a clear mind on what happened last night I just wasn't telling him that. Every time I thought about it I could feel my face turning red.<br /> I basically threw myself at him.<br /> But then there was the part where he practically called me a bimbo. I wondered if he remembered that? I couldn't remember ever seeing him with a drink in his hand last night.<br /> "Think it's time you went home princess".<br /> My stomach dropped. Was that all he had to say? "Finish your coffee and I'll walk you home". As he closed the bedroom door I swallowed the lump that had appeared in the back of my throat.<br /> Shaking it off I got myself out of bed. I had no idea where my clothes were but I noticed one of his jumpers at the end of the bed. Slipping it over my head I left the room and made my way downstairs. As I got to the last step I stopped when I heard voices.<br /> "Is she here?". Was that his mom? "Have you told her yet?".<br /> "Mom".<br /> "Her scent is getting stronger Jake and you know what that means. Claim her before someone else comes and steals your mate".<br /> What in gods name were they talking about.<br /> "Times not-.."<br /> "Hey honey". His mom clocked me first.<br /> Smiling at her I made my way into the kitchen. "How's your hand?".<br /> ... | LEARN_MORE | https://a.shepherdsapp.com/ad/Zmljd29ybGQvMTYxNDYx | 102673059542883 | Shep002 | https://facebook.com/100093452425291 | 60 | 1 | 1,025,836,595,731,947 | 2024-04-27 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Shep002 | 120210486465770659 | a.shepherdsapp.com | NONE | video | https://a.shepherdsapp.com/ad/Zmljd29ybGQvMTYxNDYxLzIwMjQwNDI1MTAyNzM3L3BhZ2U=?adid={{ad.id}} | 2024-04-24 21:32 | https://scontent-lax3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/438716671_1839402923211231_6317870874219874589_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=eW72CJXXqCwAb5mWYrN&_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-2.xx&oh=00_AfCcmku8AMYIevL4SwpGiU-IW-ylAtYFGD-70qrHNR_odw&oe=6634563B | person_profile | 0 | Shep002 | https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/438802884_340818122347713_4477280451731218890_n.jpg?_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=kQEZSu1OcagAb5SfR5H&_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBpHpe9GoTejlafAkUZk1QQ6d71y5IAyqzGxLnuHdEvxg&oe=6634608E | 0 | 3 | Shep002 | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-27 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||
