I picked my phone and dialed Ivy's number. My parents has never tried to reach me since that party and I wasn't surprised about my dad but my mom? “Hey, how are you doing Ivy?” I asked, walking towards the window.“I'm good but from the sound of your voice I can tell you're not fine.” She said as I sighed.“I'm really tired, Lucas is almost going back to his actual self and it's alarming.”“Do you realize people go through stress managing huge companies like his? And I'll tell you this maybe it's his way of dealing with the stress, do not think about it.” She said as I sighed.“You think so?” “I know so Allysa, have you spoken to granny concerning the set up of
Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 81: His Mistress
LUCAS POV I sighed, looking around as soon as I got to the location of the place she texted me. “Hey you're here.” She said happily, walking up to me in just her shorts and a bra top. She had a sunshade on and a beautiful pendant on her neck.“Yes I want us to talk, and when I mean talk, we should get to an agreement right now.” She furrowed her brows, leading me to her seat next to the pool.“You must love luxury.” I said and she chuckled.“I'm glad you're learning things about me quickly,I love luxury but I bet you're a better luxury than every other thing here.” She said, chuckling as I shook my head.“Let's have a deal Leah,” I paused, observing her expression and her movement.“What kinda deal?

ALLYSA'S POV It's been a week now since Lucas started spending quality time with me at home, sometimes ordering food and sometimes, taking me out to eat. Today he decided to work from home while I shopped online for the things I'd be needing for the opening of my fashion house.His cellphone rang, distracting us both as our eyes locked. “Should I get it for you?” I asked. These past few days, he's been so free with almost everything he owns including the password to everything he owns.“No I think I've got this.” He replied and walked over to the bed to pick the phone since we were both seated on the couches.He frowned as he stared at the phone and I needed no one to tell me it wasn't a pleasant call. “Who's it?” I asked.“No one important, let's get back to what we were doing.” He left his phone on the bed and walked up to me but I wasn't convinced.“Don't tell me you're avoiding one of your clients, I've seen you doing that before.” I said, looking skeptically at him as he chuckle

LUCAS POV “Bye.” Allysa said, waving at me as I got into my car and drove out of the compound. Over the last couple of hours, I've received several texts from Leah and it was beginning to freak me out. It began to dawn on me that she definitely had that tape hidden in a different place. How was I so foolish? “How?” I hit the staring, diverting the car to another direction but I was lucky there were no pedestrian or another car coming..I picked my phone and dialed Jack's line and of course he picked on the first ring. “Hey man, what's wrong? Your calls these days are always about something happening.” He said as I chuckled.“I think Leah has another tape, she sent me a threat and I think she's gonna upload it if I don't adhere to her wants.”“So what do you plan on doing?” Jack asked as I raked my free hand over my hair. “I really don't know Jack, I don't know.” I replied truthfully.“Go on and tell Allysa the truth, she's gonna be mad but I'll tell you this for free, she's gonna f
Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 84: Perfect Rhythm
ALLYSA'S POV Long after Ivy walked out, I couldn't think of any other thing but what she said kept going through my mind. I covered the food properly and walked up the stairs to have the lavender bath Ivy already prepared.I kept wondering how intimacy with Lucas would feel like,will he feel I'm not as exposed as he is? I'm not enough? My boobs were perfect and I didn't have them saggy, my stomach was flat, I have a perfect models body just like my profession wants.As I stepped out of the bathroom, I gasped to find Lucas standing in front of the mirror, taking off his jacket. I didn't go in with a towel, thinking I'll have the whole room to myself but it seems he came home earlier.Our eyes met through the mirror, his eyes locked with mine and in two strides, he turned on his heels and walked over to me, his hands snaking around my waist as a small smile covered his lips.“You're becoming a bad girl.” He whispered, nuzzling my neck as his right hand moved to my left boob, slightly p

LUCAS POV My beeping phone brought me out of my sleep as I groaned and picked it up. It was Jack. I turned to look at Allysa and she was soundly asleep so I got out of bed, not wanting to wake her up.“Hey man, what's wrong and why are you calling so early in the morning, hell I was having the best sleep of my entire life.” I complained and he growled.“You need to check something and I mean now, were you able to let Allysa know about the situation between you and Leah?” He asked and I froze.“I….I didn't, what's wrong?” I asked, hoping it's not what was running through my mind.“She uploaded those tapes and it's on every site!” My heart sank to the pit of my stomach as I staggered. My whole life came crumbling in front of me and I wasn't aware I'd started crying.“Lucas, Lucas are you there?” Jack called, asking probably because I'd gone quiet. I wasn't thinking properly and right now I didn't know what to do.“Jack it's all out, I'm gonna lose my marriage, I have to do something I
