Chapter: Chapter 25She was on her way to Edward's mansion, feeling both anger and sadness at the same time. On the next seat was the folder she had found. She dialed his number."Lily?" He sounded surprised she was calling at this hour. It was almost midnight. "I am outside your house. Can you open the door?" She heard the squeaking of a chair."I'll be right there" She heard a click in the door, and his handsome face appeared. His face immediately brought inexplicable relief, at the same time the feeling she had been locking in for a long time. She burst into tears, rushing into his arms. He held her, his heart in his throat. Did something go wrong at her house? He had extremely unsatisfied when he received her message earlier, now what brought her here? She wasn't physically hurt, so he decided not to speak. She kept crying. He said nothing, only patting her back. She stepped back from his arms, sniffing. He led her to a sofa. "Do you feel better now?" She nodded, trying to force a genuine smile b

Chapter: Chapter 24It was finally the day to submit the report. Lily could not contain her excitement. She sent a text message to Edward. when she arrived at the Savage mansion's entrance, "I'll be at my house today"She heard chatters between two people. It immediately stopped when they saw her. They didn't bother to hide the disgust on their faces. Jayden wasn't back yet, so they were still feeling smug, not knowing what was in store for them. She went up to her room, only returning when a servant informed her that dinner was served. They were all seated when she arrived. Jayden included. He looked as if he had lost twenty years of life. She laughed inwardly. This was just the beginning."So, now you remember you have a home" her father said. "Do you have a problem with that?" She asked dully. Rupert inhaled sharply. He seemed like he wanted to hit her but stopped. She had someone powerful backing her up. Someone he could not afford to offend. "Let's eat"Her eyes went to Jayden. Only someone who s

Chapter: Chapter 23"Isn't that the president of the new gaming company? It looks like him" People were beginning to gather around them, murmuring. He could not spend another minute here, or else, he was screwed. His company was getting popular, but it was still a bit unstable. A little scandal could have it crashing down. He could not risk that. He glared daggers at Lily, who looked at him challengingly, before storming off. She also went back to her car without getting anything. She wasn't in the mood to shop anymore. Behind the wall, not too far from them, a certain man who had been watching them also left. Marie had been discharged from the hospital and was at the Savage mansion, recuperating. She sat before the mirror, combing her hair, as she smiled devilishly. Jayden has been treating her well recently. Her plan to make him hate Lily was working. When she thought of Lily, she naturally remembered her wealthy boyfriend. Her smile disappeared. Jealousy and anger bubbled up inside her. She had taken

Chapter: Chapter 22Right at that moment, his constraint, and rationale flew out the door. He ardently responded as they both fought for control. Edward pulled her closer against him, and she felt his growing erection."Mmm….” He murmured as his tongue slipped into her mouth seductively. Her hands were wrapped around his neck. His hands went to the side of her breasts and kneaded it. She let out a suppressed moan. He carried her up, he hands resting under her butt, and they found their way to the bedroom. In a minute, the knitted sweater she wore was gone, leaving her in just her bra and pants. He laid her on the bed, planting kisses on her face, neck, then on her breasts. He made sure to leave hickeys. With his help, her pants were gone too. When his finger touched her entrance, she inhaled sharply, a loud moan escaping her lips when she felt a finger, then two enter her. He kept thrusting in and out. Edward, however, froze when he felt no action coming from her. She had gone silent. He stood up to look

Chapter: Chapter 21"There is something I need to tell you. Your......" His phone rang. "I have to pick this" he excused himself and returned a while later, all dressed up. "I have to leave now. There's something waiting for me at the office, so I have to leave" She shook her head. "It's alright. I understand"She was alone in the big house now. She thought of going to the studio. She finished her food, went to do the dishes before leaving the house. She got into the car and fastened her seatbelt. She received a text message from an unknown number. 'Come to Prima coffee shop! I want to speak to you' she frowned and dumped her phone on the empty seat beside her. The message was probably sent to the wrong person. She squeezed her face when her phone beeped with another message.'It is about Edward' That finally caught her attention. Edward? There was an internal war going on inside her. Should she go? It could be a trap. But what if it wasn't? Eventually, she did a U-turn, heading to the coffee shop. Sh

Chapter: Chapter 20Lily was speechless. She could clearly remember telling him she was going to be fine. Why was he here?"Mr..... Beau" "I will not have you shouting at my girlfriend like that, even if you are her father, and especially when she did nothing wrong" Marie saw an opportunity to malign Lily before Edward and made use of it."Lily has never treated me as her sister. She has never loved me even when I tried so hard to get close to her" she sniffed as her mum lightly patted her hand. "I swallowed all the hostility. But this is the height of it. Because of you, I lost my baby. She's a two-faced person, and you probably haven't seen her villainous side"Lily rolled her eyes. Wasn't she talking about herself and Jayden? "I have, and I love it" Everyone was completely short of words. He liked her viciousness? "But" he continued. "I believe it wasn't Lily's fault. There must be a reason" She smiled. Were they connected? That was what she said before he arrived. "I know it is not that easy to le
