2021-11-23 22:45:14She couldn't jump into conclusions about it. If she was wrong and only realized it after doing something incorrigible, it would make things awkward between them especially since Alicia obviously had feelings for him.
There was only one way to find out so she pushed him a little. "What do you think? She will definitely think I'm exaggerating if I tell her how beautiful she looks, so do you mind giving your opinion? She will believe you." She nudged him. He looked over at Alicia but the look in his eyes made it obvious that he was struggling and would very much rather not talk about it. "She is… beautiful." He said it out like it was a spell that cursed him. Gemma suddenly felt like a third wheel when she saw just how hard Alicia was blushing from the compliment. Why did she ever think of these two as siblings? They were definitely not. … It took a few days for her to be ready to let him test thRelated chapters

It was as if something snapped in Wayne. He stood up and looked right into the eyes of the woman who had just walked in."What's going on?" Alicia shifted her gaze between the two of them in suspicion. Gemma shrugged to indicate that she had no clue either, so she looked at Wayne instead."Damn it. I survived two whole years of intense training and didn't chicken out for a single day. I'm done being a chicken on this." He chanted like it was a live-saving mantra and Gemma couldn't help wondering what he was going on about? Was she needed here?"Alicia, I need to tell you something.""Okay." The poor woman was confused, rightfully so.The man shoved the perfume box into his slacks pockets and rubbed his palms together like he was generating confidence. "I made an important decision a few months ago. While I'm grateful that I had you as my sister for all these years, I don't want to have a familial relationship with you anymore. W

An ominous premonition hung in the air and it was too hard to ignore it. Gemma wanted to believe she was just being hormonal again but that did not seem to be the case. The last time she felt that way, she found out that Darrell had agreed to work for Beth to spy on her because he thought she had been in the wrong regarding the conflict between her and the woman he loved.That did not matter anymore but she couldn't ignore the chilling feeling. It made her sick, and she couldn't focus on anything she did without thinking about it.Hence, when two policemen arrived at their cottage looking for Livian, she knew she was right. Something was definitely wrong.They asked for him and she was tempted to feign ignorance but she couldn't; it might land him on the wrong side. But then again, it didn't always mean that one was being suspected of a crime if the police looked for them. There could be other reasons and she couldn't explain why that was the first t

The news of Beth's death was hard to take in. Although she and Gemma were not the best of friends, the latter couldn't take it, seeing how upset and hurt her husband was.He must have hoped that their relationship was still reconcilable no matter how far it had gotten. He had every right to think so, because she was his mother after all. Nothing hurt more than losing a parent for years before actually losing them, and not even having the chance to try and make peace. Maybe he blamed himself for not taking the high road to end the conflict.She understood his regrets, but still thought he did the right thing.She placed a hand on his shoulder when she found him in their bedroom. He had his face in his hands in disbelief and would sigh once in a while. He held her hand when he felt it on his shoulder.She sat down next to him. "I'm sorry.""I'm not, to be honest. Just disappointed." He took a deep breath."Okay." She re

"It turns out I'm not the only one who considered the possibility." He looked up at her."You thought about it." It was a question of disbelief. She had thought about different possibilities and even wondered whether Darrell could possibly have managed to get someone to kill Beth for vengeance. She wondered whether he had realized that he had been used by her, and if he knew someone who could be of help. But this…"I have never trusted him." Livian revealed, making it known to her that she was the only one who didn't consider it. "At some point I wondered whether it was him." He added.She placed her hands over his head, using small, gentle fingers to massage his temples. He smiled at her and let out a sigh."Thank you, I didn't even realise I needed this." He placed a hand over hers and enjoyed the motion of her fingers. It felt magical and more calming than he will never expect."Wayne is dropping by to discuss this." She said after a w

The new perfume launch was held in the Royal Hotel, and by the time Gemma arrived, most of the things had already been taken care of and all that was left was her making her presence for the launch to take off.It was all thanks to the new event planning department. The company’s structure had undergone significant change and that included the employees. Many of them had been transferred to different departments while others who had jeopardized the company’s interests were fired.Gemma looked proudly at the work that had been done and understood why her new assistant was usually referred to as godly hands.“This is my last event at Gem Bliss.” She smiled proudly, like a mother looking at her child who was finally all grown up.Livian had accompanied her, and he couldn’t help asking for confirmation even though she had already given her answer before. “Are you sure you want it to be?”She nodded without thinking too much of it. “Gem Bliss helped me ge

Gemma woke up to the sun rays seeping in through the window and rolled onto her side. Why was the window open? She always closed it before going to bed. Deciding that Livian must be awake, she stretched out a hand to touch him, found nothing but empty space, and got out of bed. The aroma of food led her to the kitchen but he was not there. Before she could try to call out for him, she heard his voice from the living room. It turned out that he had been there all along, discussing with Wayne. “You’re awake.” He noticed her presence before she could even speak. “Breakfast is ready. Are you hungry?” When she nodded, he stood and headed for the kitchen to warm it up for her even though she told him she could do it on her own. She knew that she would never be able to battle against him insisting on w

When she went to his home office, Livian was still in the middle of his conference meeting with his headphones on. He lookes serious and if speaking a foreign language could make someone look sexier, then he did. Or maybe it was just because of her undying attraction for him that she thought he was incredibly charming speaking Russian. She didn’t even know how many languages he spoke fluently.He was having a meeting with Russian clients and couldn’t meet them in person yet. She only picked up a word or two which were relatable from the languages she had learnt but she couldn’t be fully certain that they meant the same thing. Nonetheless, she leaned against the wall and watched him speak, probably negotiate, in a serious manner. He looked handsome even while working and she could watch him all day.When he noticed her presence, he looked up from above his laptop and raised an eyebrow, silently asking if she was okay and if she needed anything.

The following day, the duo went to check the orphanage out. They had seen it on the pictures and blueprints that the attorney gave her along with the property documents so she didn’t expect the actual structure to be even more beautiful. Or maybe it was because she had been looking forward to it and was currently viewing it through rose colored glasses. She noted down the important details on her tablet and as soon as they went back to the car, she revised them as she found ways to finish whatever was left. It would be much easier since she was not starting construction from scratch.“I need an interior designer. Do you think you could fill in the position, Mr. Dumont? We can discuss the details if you are interested.” She asked him flirtatiously.He smiled at her. “I'm always available for you, Mrs. Dumont.” He flirted right back, winking at her.She glanced back at the tablet and wrote something down. He wo

Wendy had her eyes shut when he opened the bathroom door."What's the result?" He asked.She didn't intend to tell him without playing a guessing game with him, which he quickly found out. Luckily, it was only a two choice option."Is it positive?" He asked hopefully. She shook her head.His mood dimmed in the slightest but he still asked, "Is it negative?"She shook her head, and he was baffled. Was she going to make him have a gazillion options even though it was a question of yes or no?He tried again. "Were you unable to take the test?"She shook her head to that too, and he was about to ma

It had been several weeks since Mia learned the truth about the past but it was not in the slightest bit easier to bear. It was still hard to imagine that the woman she had hated all her life was also the one who had saved her life. She had not had the courage to tell Carlos about it. Maybe he already knew the truth but kept it to himself. It was probably one of the things that would become clear with time and she was not willing to pry into them before they naturally unfolded. It made her feel guiltier because they were growing closer by the day.They had agreed to be friends but spent a lot of time together, doing things that friends definitely wouldn't ever do—not that she was complaining.On Friday evening, she went to his office as soon as she clocked out. This was how it had been for weeks. He would either seek her or she would seek him, every day. They would either have dinner together or he would drop her off. On weekends—like today—they would coo

“What in the world…” Gemma was rendered speechless by the insanity she had just heard. “Why the hell would such a rule even exist?”The elderly lawyer had no definite answer to that, because it was not he who had written the will nor had he set the rules that his granddaughter was finding absurd. He could only hypothesize. “The old man didn't want his bloodline to go extinct. He had to set some rules, and you are lucky that he did not specify that you must have a son before inheriting his estate.”Gemma sighed when she imagined that such a thing was possible. She had not known her grandfather when he was alive, because her family was yet to find her when he passed away. From the tales she had heard about him from her parents and grandmother, she knew that setting such an absurd rule did sound like something he would do.Even so, it still made no sense when she thought about it. “But I'm a w

Mia translated the document and while she didn't think there was anything secretive about it that would make Carlos unable to give it to someone else, she got the work done within the deadline nonetheless. It was the only way to get him to stop seeking trouble. She hated having to do everything he asked of her but he was the boss and there was nothing she could do about it. At least not yet.He was still sitting at his desk when she returned."That took you half an hour,." He remarked when he saw her.She placed the folder on his desk. "I'm done." She muttered, wondering why he sounded like he was complaining when he had given her two hours. She had not even taken up half of the allocated time. Was he going to scold her for being too fast?"Thank you." He half whispered. It was the first time he was appreciating anything she did and she was baffled."You're welcome." She smiled. He was smiling back at her and for the first time as well. She not

She thought he would ask to spend more days of the week with her or something along the lines but what he said surprised her."Promise me that you will sue Declan and that you will definitely go through with it no matter what happens."She frowned. "How is that paying you back? It's in my favor either way." She looked at him in confusion. Did he have a misunderstanding about the meaning of paying back?"It does pay me back. It's a win-win situation for both you and me."She thought hard about it and still couldn't understand how that was remotely possible."Is it because the man who hurt the woman you love will be behind bars and you will no longer have to see his face around? or, do you have personal grudges with him? Are you planning to use his term in prison as a way to end him?He smiled at her vivid imagination. "It's nothing of the sort. Well, those would be added benefits of putting him behind bars but the main reaso

"You are so beautiful." Livian ran his hand down her shoulder and kissed her cheek. She would have thought that he was just saying it to get on her good side but when she met his gaze, she had to believe that he truly meant it. His eyes were filled with adoration and if it was humanly possible, his attraction for her seemed to have intensified after what they had just done.She purred like a comfortable kitten when he kissed her cheek. She was lying against his chest with her body half sprawled against his. She pulled her knee up against his thigh and it drove him crazy. He groaned in pleasure."You are insatiable." She chuckled. They had done it twice in a row and she was beginning to realize that it didn't take much for him to be hard again.He wrapped his arms around her waist and chuckled against her neck. "Who am I to blame for that? If the wife is too sweet, is it the husband's fault that he got addicted to her sweetness?"She looked

Liam and Wendy had a shotgun wedding and it was baffling to everyone. The first thing they had to do was fulfill a part of the contract, which was for Wendy to make an appearance in the Dumont family as his wife.Their plan was to pass off as a real couple but they were shocked when they found out that Gemma was not falling for it."The two of you broke up two years ago, didn't you?" She questioned them."We reconciled and realized that we didn't want to risk losing each other again, so we decided to get married." Liam held her hand.Gemma chuckled. "Or, Liam had his assistant get him a suitable wife for hire so he would be able to access the trust fund from his great grandmother and since his assistant couldn't get a suitable woman, you decided that it would be more believable if it was you and him getting married." Gemma teased."That's not…" Wendy didn't know how to defend herself."It's okay. It's perfectly
Evil Contract Wife CHAPTER 167
She was certain that if she chose to agree to the contract marriage, the money she would earn would be enough to pay all her debts including her rent. Forget paying rent. Even if she wanted to purchase the entire estate and kick the landlady out of the apartment complex, she would have the power to do so.She was only in such a predicament because she had a falling out with her parents and decided to leave.It was impossible to count the number of bosses and managers who had tried to take advantage of their position to sexually harass her.Even so, she did not regret her decision, nor was she going to bend her will for that man. She shrugged. Many of her problems would be solved once she received her salary from the diner.After eating her snacks, she took a shower and prepared to go to bed.…It was already 7pm and the traffic couldn't get any crazier. Wendy was already an hour late for her evening shift and she kne
Evil Contract Wife CHAPTER 166
Evenings were the busiest time of the day at the diner and when Wendy was finally done with her work for the day, it was already 7pm. Even so, she couldn't leave until her replacement who would be working the night shift arrived since it was a 24 hour restaurant.She glanced at her pocket watch in irritation. Alma, that bitch, was late again. What irked her was the fact that she knew Alma disliked her and she was doing it on purpose like she always did whenever she had to take over the night shift from Wendy.Clara had already changed out of her work uniform and sent it to the laundry, so she was ready to go. She offered a smile at Wendy as she made her way towards the back door. "Want to go home together? My boyfriend will pick me up. We can give you a ride. Go on and change, I'll wait for you."Wendy looked up from the orders she was preparing for a couple and their daughter, returning the smile. "It's alright. I'll take the subway." She was gratef
