CHAPTER 66

Her mind went blank. Did he just say he knew what really happened to Ethan? How could he know? Know one knew about it. Her shocked eyes met his and he smiled. Was he seriously making fun of her? 

"Don't worry. We are not talking about Ethan right now. We are discussing Sofia." He teased her by tapping her nose with his forefinger. 

She forced a smile and took a bite of a cookie, which tasted somewhat like medicine, bitter and unbearable, but she had to eat it out of necessity. She couldn't go through a whole day of hard work without eating. She wouldn't have the strength to do so. 

He was observing her from the corner of his eye and reached over to pet her hair. "Don't be nervous. I really won't bring him up in circumstances that don't need him. You can be certain of that." He promised. 

She was far from relieved. "How the hell am I supposed to take that to heart? Who else knows about it?" 

"No one. It's between you and me." He looke

    "See you on Friday." She kissed his lips gently and moved to open the car door."No. See you tonight." He corrected her with a smirk on his lips.She bit her bottom lip. "You make it sound like you're not just going to see me.""You know that I'd be happy to do more than just see you, Gem." He groaned before their lips connected.She pulled away even though she wanted to kiss him as badly as he wanted it. "We can't let anyone else see us even though they already know."He nodded and reined in the urge to take her in the car. "I'll pick you up at 4pm."She agreed and hurriedly got out of the car.It was only when she was in the elevator that she realized what she had agreed to. Did she just say yes to him picking her up this evening and spending the night at his place?What is the use of agreeing to meet for sleepovers on the weekends if she was going to be there on random days as well?She frowned

    "You are one to talk, Miss Arnaud." Rudolf scoffed. "It's a known fact. Do you know what else is a known fact? Where there is smoke, there is fire."Gemma's smile widened. Well, that gave her an idea.Rudolf shuddered from her gaze but maintained his stance. What could a woman like her do? She didn't have the balls to try to mess with him. Or did she?…"How did it go?" Livian asked when he picked her up at 4pm. He was on time and she couldn't get to his car fast enough. She had told him about the meeting with the shareholders and he couldn't wait to know about what happened either.She slumped into the shotgun seat and threw her handbag into the backseat in an unlady-like manner, then kicked her shoes off her feet like she couldn't wait to get rid of them. She glanced at him as she fastened her seatbelt. "My day has been greater than my worst nightmare. Thanks for asking."He chuckled at her sarcastic to

    "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

    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 th

    Charles gave up trying to gain Livian's sympathy. He muttered something about sons being too ungrateful and flipped the folder closed. Livian and Gemma were waiting for him to realize the intensity of the situation and give in.It didn't take long. He initially thought that Livian was using this to blackmail him into letting him keep his position as the CEO of The Dumont Group but he quickly realized that it would not be helpful to use that kind of method. It would have been multiple times more effective if he gave each member of the board of directors a copy of the evidence and made everyone vote against Declan.He had a nice set of cards. If he were to play them right, he would gain whatever he wanted in a snap. The fact that they were here instead, made Charles realize that there was something that Livian wanted more than the shares. What would that be?"What do you want?" He demanded.Livian glanced at Gemma and smiled, then turn

    "My house?" Gemma asked suspiciously. How could she not have found out?Charles's nod confirmed it and she was confused."I don't understand. I checked the surveillance and she had indeed snuck out. She didn't sneak back in." She expressed her doubt."Of course. That's the point." Charles placed his hand on the table and looked at her meaningfully."Can we talk about it right now?" She asked. They were in a private dining room and privacy was guaranteed so she didn't comprehend why he made it sound like he was asking for something else in return. Hadn't they already given him their side of the bargain?He looked at Livian whom he didn't entirely trust, then back at Gemma. "I need some proof that the two of you will keep your mouths shut."She was annoyed. "Do you want us to have a surgery to chop our tongues off for you to be certain that we will not be able to say a word?""That might actually do." Charles

    Livian grudgingly groaned and drove back to his mansion. He impatiently pushed her against the wall as soon as they arrived and peeled her clothes off."Slow down." She chuckled at his impatience.Not only did his actions not slow down, but they became even rougher. Her panties were torn off as soon as she was pushed onto the bed, and he was pleased when he realized that she wanted him just as much as he wanted her."I'm not going to be gentle." He warned before pushing deeply into her. He made hard love to her with deep, hard thrusts that made her cry out in ecstasy as she clung to his shoulders. It was only when he had emptied himself into her that he calmed down slightly."Are you okay?" She asked though a chuckle. "You are so impatient.""That's because you are extremely sweet." He kissed her exposed nipple and flipped her below him. She was sore by the time he let go of her, and she felt sated."Our priorities are mixe

    That evening, Gemma had to celebrate. Not only had she gotten rid of Declan, but she had also put another of her enemies behind bars while at it. Sofia wasn't any better off. When the police found out that she had been part of a conspiracy that resulted in her getting assaulted.Afraid that more of her secrets would be let out, Beth had ordered for Sofia's death as soon as she managed to contact her lawyer who was coincidentally her friend in crime."I have to give a toast to the end of yet another member of the Black family." She raised her glass. She and Livian had decided to celebrate in his cellar and had downed a few glasses of wine already.He downed his wine at the same time as she did and snatched the glass from her. "That's enough.""I want more." She purred. She was starting to slur. When he held the glass too high for her to reach it, she ended up sprawled across his chest as she tried to grab it back. She rubbed against his chest. "M

    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    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
