Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 89-Possessiveness
Because of the drama between Brent and Adrian, Sam was not able to talk to Brent much and left with Adrian in a hurry.Hermosa was still a bit embarrassed and tried to say something to Sam and Adrian to ask them to come over for dinner sometime.She looked a little anxious and broke away from Brent's grip on her hand."Sam I'm really sorry, I was going to let you and your friend talk more about the whole thing. See you next time!""See you next time, Miss Hermosa."Sam didn't say anything just waved his hand and walked away quickly.But Adrian who turned back to Hermosa and gave her a big smile and a gesture of a phone call.Hermosa returned the smile politely and waved her hand at the man. She didn't see Brent's grim face just behind her.Brent tugged at the corner of her coat from behind her."What's wrong sir?"Hermosa turned her head to see Brent hugging Elisa, his head bowed, his shorn hair falling down in front of his forehead to block most of his face, a very unhappy look.His

"How did you stay up there so long, your parents ...... didn't say anything, did they?"Like a beach after a tsunami has receded, Hermosa always felt like her life experiences were about to be exposed to the air like those glossy gravels.Like a deflated ball, she sat dumbly on her hospital bed and asked worriedly."They're very concerned about your health and mine. My mother, Simona, looks the most anxious.I believe it is related to the injuries I sustained before.""I know sir, she was also very depressed when she stayed with me.I always think of Elisa when I see your mother.I think if I were Ms. Simona, I would have mostly passed out."Brent sighed, "Hermosa, I never thought I'd have someone to share the hardships of life with before.Until just now when I was talking to my mother.She gazed at me, still strong and smiling, and comforted me until my father arrived at the hospital after dealing with his business.I saw my mother throw herself into his arms at once and cry hoarsely
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 91-love you more than I did before
That night,Brent hid from Hermosa and Elisa what he and Jeffrey had actually discussed .Brent went out into the corridor to have a cigarette.He knew how angry and upset Hermosa was.She must have been frustrated with her family and her parents to the core.He now had the feeling that no matter how much he loved her, the hollow and forlorn part of her heart would remain there forever.Like her unborn child, it would always be a thorn in her side.He called Wilbur, his secretary , and a respectful answer came from the other end."Mr Brent, the case of Hermosa being forced to sign an agreement against her will by her father, Chad, is being investigated.It's just that we found out that Chad did lose a large amount of money gambling at the Warrington Hills Casino.The person who signed this agreement was a third party dealer of the Casino.I checked out the person who was behind the gambling and his information was hidden very well and it will take some time.But that money was indeed o
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 92-Find her
Location: Warrington Hills"Young Master, that man has paid back the money, a million wired from an anonymous account.""So quickly, was it the full amount?""It's a cheque for the full amount.""Weren't you the one who told me before that he didn't have any money? I signed that contract because he didn't have any money.""Young master, I think... That man might have borrowed from a loan shark.""Go and find out for me where the girl on that contract is working now.I heard you say that old man's daughter works at the Gentleman's Bar?It's a shame that a girl like that is working in that shithole, go and write a cheque to the owner sometime and redeem her.""Then the million..."In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a tall man with raised eyebrows shook the champagne he was holding.Obviously mature looking, the way he sipped his wine in his bathrobe and crossed his legs to look out the window had a touch of teenage frivolity to it.He sat on the sofa, his head tilted back and sai
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 93-Hermosa, where are you?
"What?"Ray didn't expect Hermosa to ask himself such a question and froze slightly, "Should I say not really...""Rather than crying a lot, he's particularly sensitive to certain things, probably more empathetic.""When I was still in school, I heard that Brent once killed a litter of mice as a freshman for an experiment and felt awful for a very long time.His roommate peeked at him when he wasn't noticing and found him crying.""Everyone didn't know what was wrong with him, but when he was asked later, he said that he was thinking that the litter of mice, originally, shouldn't have died."Ray said, glancing back warily at the sick bay door.Luckily, Brent was still in rehabilitation and couldn't hear her."Hermosa, don't say I told you about this.""You're afraid he'll be angry with you?" Hermosa laughed, "Don't worry, he's not that petty." Hermosa couldn't help but say. She couldn't remember much about her first encounter with him four years ago.All she remembers is the rainy
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 94-Can't leave her alone
Brent texted Hermosa three times in a row, each one more frantic than the last.He'd never done anything like this before, and Hermosa was perplexed for a while, so she responded with a tiny lie.Hermosa: I'm just downstairs at the hospital for a walk, I'll be right back.It was now 6.15, so she would have to spend another fifteen minutes on a quick shopping trip and then walk back in five minutes, which would be "quick", right?Hermosa thought with a slight sense of guilty conscience as she picked out a few more temptingly colored oranges, bought a can of coconut milk and some sugar and glutinous rice flour.She was about to go to the cashier when she turned around and was wrapped in a pair of strong arms."...... Brent?"Hermosa was startled and almost dropped the shopping basket in her hand.It wasn't until she smelled the familiar scent of the man and heard his familiar breathing that she responded, "What's wrong with you?"Brent's face was pale and he looked to have come in a hur
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 95-Wanna biting your ears
Brent looked up at the dim and bright streetlights outside the hospital.For the first time in a while Hermosa saw a look of unease in the man.Brent looked more thoughtful than he had when they had faced danger once.He sighed, the breeze blowing the ends of his hair to reveal his forehead.He quickly adjusted his thoughts and gave Hermosa a bright smile."Come here I want to hug you." Brent suddenly opened his arms to Hermosa like a schoolboy seeking a hug of love.Hermosa meekly walked over and buried her head in the crook of his arm."There is nothing more important than you right now Hermosa.I will communicate with them about our relationship.We need to give them time too.Don't worry I'll take care of all these trivial things for you.""I really won't affect the relationship between you and your family?..."Hermosa looked up at him worriedly.Brent, however, smiled brightly and rubbed her head as if he were soothing a puppy."What are you worrying about? They won't be too conc
Awakening the Billionaire's Lust 96-Finally came back home
She was still haunted by haunting memories most nights at the hospital. Only tonight, the dream was as real as if it had already happened.In the dream, the faces of the killed Fido and the unborn child in her womb became increasingly distinct, only to be squashed into a two-dimensional condition as the blood wrapped around Hermosa's body and tried to strangle her.She struggled to open her eyes, crying in terror, and was greeted by the slightly tired but worried face of Brent."Hermosa , darling, you're having nightmares again.Tell me what happened this time."Although he put on a calm and mature face to try and calm her down.Hermosa could see that he was nervous about her too, his eyes saying "I'm really worried about the state you're in."Brent took Hermosa's hand, as he always did, and brushed the tip of his nose against her fingertips."Sir, is it okay if I want to discuss something with you?""Hmm? Say it baby.""Sir... I... I... Can I go back to work at the Gentleman's Bar w
