A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.16- Forced
Mira flinched, tears stung her eyes. "No, of course, you don't care. You can't get past your greed. Dimitri left you nothing in his will, and you resent that, don't you?" Jacob reprimanded with sharp disgust road. "No doubt you dream of great wealth. But a few weeks before his death, Dimitri took out a huge loan to buy a decaying island in Palawan. Emotionally driving him to fight this crazy purchase with everything he has, he is too proud to ask me for advice or help.""Palawan? Island?" Mira repeated erratically, her bright head lifted slowly."Castiglio Island, Castor's former home, with complete facilities, and a thousand pieces of a barren land covered with stubble, can only raise mountain cows," Jacob added in a low voice, saying to with such a move, his lingering suspicion was palpable. "The ruin was even banned from further development altogether, as it is located in an environmental protection area. That's pretty much worthless to anyone but Dimitri. The heir of the late mas
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.17- Agressor
"And yet you said that Dimitri told you a lot about me." Mira's distraught wandered between Dimitri's frequent references to Jacob. A ruthless commercial aggressor with a personality that cannot accept failure. A ruthless enemy who never forgets his original intention, a man who is only loyal to his family, a man who doesn't know what relaxation is. Except in the bedroom, women are his only leisure hobby. Is this how he keeps himself so fit?Mira flushed and frowned at her unforgivable inattention, then her stomach sank at the reality she was recalling. She wryly admits that her brother loves and admires Jacob because he possesses all qualities that he himself lacks. So what did Jacob's enemies say about his character? "It's an evening outfit. I look really stupid in it," she objected, as the cool temperature of the foyer hit her bare arms and shoulders."You look exactly how I want them to be, like a woman who doesn't know how to dress for the day. You don't need to smile for the p

Mira crawled into the afternoon heat, feeling hot, wrinkled, and jumpy. When Jacob spoke to the footman who hurried out to meet them, she ducked timidly behind him. He turned around, letting out a hiss of pent-up tension and exhaling. "Clara is not here. She flew to Coron this morning to stay with friends. Apparently, she tried to contact me to let me know of her plans, but she couldn't reach me."A huge wave of relief swept over Mira. She hurried back to the limousine. "What now," she asked almost brightly. Jacob frowned. "It's unlikely she'll hear about our marriage until she gets back. Her friend lives on a vines plantation in a remote area." "You can call her." "I'll wait until I see her. Alone No such announcement will be made over the phone." His strong face closed. "So what should we do now?"Jacob ignored the question. Mira found that he was in a bad mood again. Now was not the time to share her beliefs with him: cheating only got the liar in deeper trouble. She tried to

While she was in the jacuzzi, her luggage had been unpacked, but Mira was surprised to find her small brocade jewelry box on the dresser. In fact, she already had a bad foreboding about the pile of motley clothing that Sheldon threw into the box at will, and she was surprised that he had been so considerate in packing her jewelry into the backpack.Opening it, she frowned, then rummaged through several tangled sets of clothing beads in an increasingly desperate search for what she wanted to find. Her heart stopped beating and her stomach heaved violently. The Castor Ring was nowhere to be found! Mira immediately came to the most obvious conclusion. Jacob is determined to wrest the ring from her. And, and behold, it's gone now! Apparently Jacob stole her brother's gift!Mira ran down the long stairs barefoot. There was a fighting gleam in her angry eyes, and she saw Jacob emerge from a room off the hall. "I want my ring back!" she yelled, throwing it at him. Startled, Jacob turned t

"Well, you're not trying too hard now, are you?" Mira retorted furiously. "If you don't let go of me now, I'm going to hit you hard enough so you can't stand until the middle of next week!" "Your mouth is bigger than yourself," Jacob growled. The deep voice became thicker and thicker, which pushed Mira's self-preservation instinct to the extreme. "Why don't you kiss me instead?" "Because I don't want to kiss you!" "No, really?" "Do I look that stupid?" Mira spat.But then Jacob blocked her mouth with his hot, hungry mouth, and the world spun wildly, and she gasped and clung to him. Electric heat engulfed her or maybe it was him. He also seemed to be burning. Her fingers hooked around his hard cheekbones, and her head fell back, scarred, as he thrust one hand firmly into her hair and kissed her,Asking to be thorough until she thought she was going to pass out from lack of oxygen, but she didn't care because nothing had ever felt so good. In the dark, he put her on the bed, and
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.21- Weakness
This stark question made Mira uncomfortable. There was only one answer, and it wasn't the answer she wanted to give. Swallowing her reluctance with difficulty, she whispered, "I want you—" Admitting this was like drinking a glass of poison to him. "And?" Jacob asked without mercy. Her face was hot now, and she was sure she was glowing like a neon sign in the dark."It's a challenge to see yourself as a natural flirt when you're trying to indent a wall, and you nearly hit the ceiling last night in a rush to vacate a hotel bed. For a woman with a checkered past, when talking when it comes to sex, you feel strangely nervous." Mira imagined telling him she was a virgin but quickly dismissed the humbling thought with an inner shudder. He won't believe her.He had no way of knowing how frightening it was to find himself not only at the mercy of feelings and sexual responses that were foreign to her, but also at the mercy of someone as sophisticated as himself, and to realize that he was
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.22- Her Past
"Boom, thank you. No romance, no affection, no sex appeal. No wonder Dimitri is ashamed of your attitude to women!" Jacob's face paled beneath his bronzed skin. "Damn—" he said gruffly, barely able to contain his temper. Mira, equally astonished at her attack on him, hung her fiery head. But imagine falling in love with someone like that! She thinks. Her mind couldn't stop spinning— making her dizzy.Ruthless man no, ruthless pig who talks fluently about exchanging physical gratifications and has no desire for a deeper bond in a relationship. Listening to his words, the blood in her veins froze. "I don't see anything wrong with my point of view." "What about love?" "I've never been in love—" Jacob gave her a hard look with an impatient expression. "I don't believe it. Now, if you're going to talk to me about infatuation or lust—""No, thank you. I think you've let yourself down so badly this day." Mira picked up her knife and fork and started eating the first menu. Somehow she

"He pushed you towards me. He set up the two of us. Does he care who I am? Or how I will treat you when this story comes out?" "He doesn't! It's possible to think that. H—he just can't—" Mira argued intermittently. "One more word in his defense and I'll fly to Valencia and tear him apart with my bare hands!" Jacob snarled at her with a thunderous fury that made her tremble and her eyes go wide."Before you ask me why I didn't do this the day before yesterday, please remind yourself that he knew the whole story, not just the small part that was published! I don't want to wake up one day to hear about you and Dimitri's dirty story!" Jacob strode away, then turned quickly back, striding back across the rough grass with a daunting purpose. He took hers in one of his big hands. "You're coming back to eat, the dinner is not over.""No." "My wife isn't going to hide in the garden and cry over the entertainment of my employees!"Mira swallowed. "Why are you so angry?" "That's a really stu

Clara clear all doubts and misunderstandings!"Where are you going?" Jacob asked big-sister Clara."This is just an in-flight visit to clear up misunderstandings. I will come back to see Castiglio next time. By the way, Mira—"Mira raised her head nervously. Clara laughed again. "Your brother managed to convince his mother not to sell the family painting with the house. I'm glad to see them hanging where they belong."***"Clara can run in circles," Mira muttered as the limousine disappeared from view. "She was mopping the floors with us." Still in shock, she started back indoors. Then it dawned on her: Clara knew everything. There's no need to pretend anymore, and there's no need to wait for a divorce any longer. Suddenly, Mira's lower limbs struggled limply through the swamp like toothpicks. Clara removes the artificial boundaries formed by their relationship. They are running out of time. "How can you tell her our marriage is fake?" Jacob angrily condemned. "Do you really thin
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.36- Knew All Along
Mira took a step back, frustrated by the bodyguard's barely concealed hostility. He hesitated, apparently determined not to insult Jacob for his assistance during her stay. From the door, she glanced back."Things are not what you think." She said helplessly. "I shouldn't be thinking about anything, Mrs. Delrama." But there was accusation about him, his usual quiet friendliness chilled by what she believed to be a fiercely defensive loyalty to Jacob.It's only when Jacob is in this situation that he realizes that Jacob is too damn manly and proud to want her around him, which prompts Mira to go back to her room. She lay in bed and watched the dawn break. He was really upset, he must have been drunk. Mira tried very hard to understand. Hadn't she herself betrayed Dimitri's trust in the same way? She agreed to marry Jacob only under duress,If she had known what their fate would be in the morning after the ceremony, she would have run a thousand miles. Jacob wasn't trying to disinher
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.35- Painful Truth
"I don't hate anyone." But Mira is still ashamed because she remembers her resentment against his legal family reaching explosive proportions before her brother's death, only that was when she met Jacob and Clara and before she let herself face reality."Dimitri doesn't love anyone," she pointed out sternly. "He never stopped loving Clara. Even if he knew about me, I think Clara knows this and that's why she never gives him a choice." "You didn't give me a choice either," Jacob reprimanded bitterly. "You let me continue to think that you slept with Dimitri. Even though you know this belief breaks my heart, you keep me believing it!""I keep telling you we're not lovers, but I know it's pointless! The only possible explanation for Dimitri's will is the one I've come up with." Jacob's eagle-like profile was frozen with suppressed emotion, and he gave her a sharp look."But I must admit that I cruelly and cynically misjudged Dimitri and did everything in my power to shirk the responsibi
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.34- Truth
But not just in the moment when she revels in the fact that he can't take his eyes off her. Mira was awakened by the thunderous slam of the door. She blinked confusedly in the light and stood up against the pillows, looking vaguely at Jacob, standing at the foot of the bed, shirtless except for a pair of faded skinny jeans hanging down over his thin hips. There was a gentle smile on her lips. He looks so magnificent, he always looks so magnificent,She could even forgive him for accidentally waking her out of a deep sleep for the first time in days. Vicious black eyes stared at her fiercely. Mira froze in amazement, her smile gone, her abdominal muscles tensing. Waves of seething tension emanated from Jacob. "What's wrong?" she asked in a low voice."I'm hungry. I got up to get something to eat and on the way down I started wondering what was so important about these documents that my lawyer felt the need to fly over and put them in my hands himself and if they were worth that much.
A Contract With A Billionaire Heir 3.33- Passion and Heat
Raw triumph flashed in his glistening eyes. He ran slowly, looking for his fingers in the pouty mound he had bared for fun. As his thumb brushed the stiff pink bud approaching him, she gasped and stood up against him, every nerve ending in her body screaming in response. He pushed her to the ground with passionate kisses. She kissed him back with desperate urgency, everything she had suppressed for so long.Endless days suddenly betrayed her in a possessive storm. Her hands ran over his body, smoothing the warm golden skin that encased the whiplash muscles, and she let out a hungry moan of impatience. "You're always in a hurry—" Mira writhed and squirmed, on fire wanting him, without a semblance of self-control, not even remembering. Her fingers gripped his thick, silky black hair, and she moved her legs in an invitation to pain more blatantly than words.With a sharp groan, Jacob reached for her hips and pulled her under him. Then he hesitated. "I don't want to hurt you anymore."

"Change it." Mira pleaded sincerely, and hurriedly avoided him and walked towards the house. "I'm going to take a shower." "See you upstairs," Jacob said softly. She froze and then understood what he meant. He had to change, and although he slept in the bedroom opposite to her, half his clothes were in the closet in her room. Her head was still spinning. One kiss and she's gone without a trace, and Jacob can do anything to her! No wonder he was laughing!She was his and he knew it. A taxi was already waiting in the courtyard, and when Mira entered the hall, a maid was leading a man with a briefcase into the living room. The man stopped for a moment and almost looked at Mira in surprise. Then, just as suddenly, his piercing black eyes veiled nodded politely and disappeared from her view.Mira looked curiously at Klaud standing under the stairs. "Who's that?" "Mr. Delrama's lawyer." No doubt the man was staring at her because she looked horrible in her gardening attire it wasn't a

"I know what I'm doing, Sol." "How can you say that? There's no peace in Castiglio. We're all crawling around the house—no smiles, no laughs. That wonderful delicious food—He said if he didn't finish another meal, he'd leave!" "Jacob is very bad-tempered." "Having a wife who works all day in the garden, he has a reason. You're neglecting your husband." Not in her dream, she didn't."He thrives on neglect." Sol gritted her teeth disapprovingly, shook her head, and got up to leave. "You're as stubborn as he is." Mira regained her energy and continued weeding. If her brother looked down on her and Jacob now, she knew he would blame her too. But from the moment Jacob asserted that if she were related to Dimitri, he would feel obligated to maintain a married relationship with her, Mira decided not to try to use that as a basis to attract and keep him.After successfully seducing her into bed, Jacob candidly admits that his only interest in her is sex. If he knew she was Dimitri's sist

The powerful car stopped in the yard. Jacob turned off the engine and turned to look at her, black eyes as hard as jet in a vibrantly handsome face. "When you lose your temper with Sheldon, your mood can turn bad. He is your security blanket and I think you are old enough to live without him. Times have changed, don't try to tell me differently, baby. What you want now is me—"Forever, and always, she thought horrified, clutching at the depths of her own vulnerability. She wants so much more than she hopes to achieve. Jacob held up a strong hand and gently tucked a handful of colorful spirals between his fingers. He lifted her brooding face, subjecting her to the onslaught of his stern scrutinizing gaze. "I want you," he said with great succinctness. "So what's the problem? In my opinion, this is a simple and completely straightforward relationship."Mira held her breath, almost drowning in the evocative scent of him being so close, and a flurry of small reactions made her dizzy an

Sheldon makes a deliberate U-turn in the colored vehicle. "I've always promised myself to take a vacation. The moment you said you were in Castiglio, I saw the sun, water, and the sand and I realized where you had to be. From there, it was just a matter of studying the map." As he drove down the steep mountain road at the crawling speed of a fear of heights, holding the steering wheel painfully tightly, rounding each zigzag corner with ease,Mira thought about Jacob feverishly until she was dizzy with tension. Bang! He stole her peace and security. And what did he give her in return? A terrible sense of inadequacy and self-loathing, and an unreliable temper like an active volcano. "If you are threatened by Jacob, please yell." Just last night, he told her that she had a fight with him and wanted to arrest him! He's seen inside of her and understood something that she didn't understand herself, and it's horrific.She should have known she was in love with him the moment she found her
