DIANA I felt my blood turn to ice in my veins as I hoped and prayed I heard wrong.But the footsteps only got louder.I pushed Jerome away from me before I knew what I was thinking, my eyes wide as I stared around frantically. He blinked as he stared at me, clear confusion on his face.“Someone is coming!!” I hissed in explanation, grabbing his arms and moving him towards the bathroom I came out from. “What are you -” He let out a breath as I shoved him in, my heart in my mouth.“Stay in until I tell you to come out.” I ordered, panic pouring through my false composure. He was about to say something but I only shut the door in his face, turning and standing awkwardly in front of the bathroom.Damn it, damn it, damn it!I should have just pushed him away!Why did I stay?I stilled as the person approached, and the footsteps revealed themselves to be Jerome’s Personal Assistant.Oh, Gosh..“Oh, Miss Diana, you’re here.” She nodded in greeting, a faint smile on her face.“Yes, yes, I j

DIANA Oh my God. The woman stared with parted lips, Jerome glared hard at her, her eyes widened when she realized she’d been looking too long for comfort before averting her eyes. “Oh! Oh My god, I’m sorry sir!” She blurted out turning and slammed the door behind her as she fled. Oh my God. How did I not hear her?? It seemed I was the only one having an internal breakdown. This man went back to kissing my neck like we weren’t just caught. “Just stop.” I pursed my lips, staring to the side in embarrassment. I just needed a hole to fall in right now… “Are you sure?” He smirked at me. “Y-yes.” I responded, my voice quivering. He stepped away from me, a smirk still playing on his face. God, he was handsome. But that wasn’t what was important right now!! “Now she’ll tell everyone that she saw me shoving my tongue down the CEO’s throat!” I huffed as I took a step back, my back leaning on the sink. “Well, She's not wrong.” He chuckled, his hands sliding into his pockets

DIANA The drapes lifted to reveal the piece.I held my breath as it was unveiled, at first glance, the bulbous texture of the glass work made it appear like crystalline clouds, but the way it flowed upwards, each glass cloud intricately rising and stacking together, revealed a futuristic tower, the hues of blue on the piece dancing together and separating under different angles and rays of light.My work.I stared at it with furrowed brows. It was hard not to judge myself, my work. But I knew I put so much into this.So much. It was so hard to put the pieces back together, and create this.Luckily for me, there was a welder not too far from the hotel, and he understood my vision. Hopefully everyone else understood it too. And they did. The collective gasps that filled the room and looks of astonishment littered the faces of the guests in the room as they gazed at the piece made a smile grow on my face. They loved it.Like they were on a hunt for the biggest photo opportunity, Th

DIANAMy phone wouldn’t stop ringing on the drive home, I sighed as I slipped it out of my purse, checking the caller I.D.Mr Leota.I shoved the phone back into my purse, ignoring the call and wiped my tears with trembling hands. You think a few people singing your praise means you are worth something?What have you done tonight that no one has ever done?Kevin’s voice was omnipresent in my mind, no matter how far I ran, he’s there.I stared out the window, my chest tightened as I fought back a fresh onslaught of tears. I reached my apartment in half an hour, my hands shaky as I shut the door behind me.I could still feel my phone ringing in my purse, I swallowed as I walked in, barely present as I threw the purse to the couch, taking off my gown In silence as I walked towards my bedroom.I stilled as I slipped out of the dress, the burn marks on my thigh stretching upwards and disappearing under my underwear.Any man that makes the mistake to fuck you will only dump you in the end

DIANA.My eyes popped open in utter shock as I fell to the chair, an anvil of disbelief weighing me down. “Dee?” Lily’s voice was sharp through the speaker as I stared at my screen. “Dee, are you there??” She cried out, but I couldn’t hear her.All I could focus on was the video playing. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I hoped so hard that it wasn’t, but it couldn't be mistaken. She was wearing the same gown as I. She was pinned to the wall. He kissed her. Mr. Leota. Me. My heart thumped frantically in my chest, my throat tightening as I read the headlines written in bold letters;CEO OF LEOTA INDUSTRIES AND COMMON EVENT PLANNER CAUGHT INTIMATE ON CAMERA!!My fingers shook as I scrolled, my eyes scanning through the words. Oh god! Oh god! Oh god!“… small scale event planner has become the latest victim of the latest victim of the charming CEO…”“Dee? Dee!” I dropped the phone on the couch when Lily called out to me, unable to stare at my phone screen anymore.“How did this

DIANAHis blue-gray eyes stared down at me, searching my face deeply.“What are you doing here?” I asked, my tone filled with surprise. He must have seen it too.“Why weren’t you picking my calls?” He questioned, his eyes narrowed as he walked past me, into the apartment.There was no way I could avoid him now. I sighed and shut the door, turning to him, “ I was just a bit overwhelmed by...everything.” Lily stared at him with raised brows, obviously as surprised as I was to see him here.“Uhm-“ She stood up slowly, grabbing her bag and walking straight to the door, her eyes flashing between the two of us. “I’m gonna go now.” She held my hand, giving it a tight squeeze, “I’ll come back tomorrow.” She said quietly, offering me a small smile.I returned the gesture, holding the door open for her as she walked out. And she was gone.“Who is she?” I had barely even shut the door when he asked sharply, a brow raised in question.“She’s my friend.” I sighed as I turned to him, my arms cro

DIANA “Is there something on my face?”I hadn’t realized I had been staring, I quickly looked away, feeling my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.Jerome only smirked at my reaction, walking past me and straight to my fridge.“Just as I expected.” He chuckled as he opened it.“What?” I raised a brow, turning to him.“Have you been living off coffee and air?” He raised a brow as me, disappointment clear on his face.Oh.I stared into the nearly empty fridge, the sad carton of milk staring back at me.“I was going to cook today,” I tried defending myself, turning to the side with pressed lips. “I just got a bit carried away.”I couldn’t help noticing his gaze shifting to the bags on the counter“So, What did you get from the store?” He made his way to the counter reaching for one of the bags before I spoke up.“Uhm… I got some icecream…” I walked towards him.“Icecream?” He scoffed, staring at me with slightly parted lips.“You can have some, if you’re into that…” I shrugged, pulling out

DIANA I woke up with a jolt, staring at the darkness of my bedroom ceiling with squinted eyes, I groaned as I turned to the side, staring out the window.The sun wasn’t even out yet.It wasn’t long before nerves took over my every movement, my fingers twisting the edge of my shirt as I sat up.I had to go to work.I bit my lip, reaching for my phone on the side table. I squinted almost immediately as it came on, the light almost blinding me. It was 5:30am.I stood up from the bed with a low sigh, walking out lazily to the living room. I stared at the empty home as I took a sip of water, my brows furrowing as I fingers tightened their hold on the cup. My heart began to hammer in my chest just thinking about it. I couldn’t avoid it. I had to go to work. I couldn’t let the nerves get to me, I needed to get rid of them. I walked back to my room, pulling out joggers from my closet and slipping on a long sleeve turtleneck, my running shoes following after, before walking with determi

DIANA The kisses were cold, the ones the wind left sporadically on my skin as I stood by the window of my apartment. A heavy sigh left my lips as I watched the sight before me - it was nothing like Paris. The streets of Paris would have brought out the artist in me, if I had stayed a bit longer. I would have filled pages with the unmatched charm they had to offer. I would give anything to go back there…To him. Was Paris really beautiful, or was it just him? The way he made me feel? The way everything he did made me believe I was special? That i was the only one he’d ever do those things for? Then there was a knock on the door, that pulled me out of my thoughts.I walked over to the door, wondering who it was when I opened it.My eyes widened as I came face to face with Kevin, my heart skipping a beat at the two figures behind him, their faces concealed with masks.“What are you doing here?” I felt utter fear at the sight, but I held my ground, staring Kevin dead in face.“To pu

DIANA What was he doing here??? I stopped in my tracks when I saw Kevin outside the restaurant, his back turned to us.“Dee, don’t engage, let’s just leave.” Lily shook her head frantically as she pulled me away.“Can’t I have one day-” I scoffed in irritation. “-Just one day free of this asshole??” “Don’t let him ruin your day Dee, let’s go.” Lily held my hand, her eyes pleading as she led us away. I frowned at her, my eyes lifting to Kevin’s figure ahead.“Were you asking me to leave because of him?” I scoffed, staring at her with a scowl.“What, no! That’s not it ,” She turned to look at Kevin. “I’ll explain when we get to your apartment, but I don’t want a scene.” She stressed, leading us away.“You think I’d cause a scene?” My lips parted in disbelief.“When you and Kevin are in the same room? Yes, the both of you will cause a scene-” She pursed her lips, staring round. “-and we can’t have that with your current situation.” She shook her head.“What do you mean?” I took a step

The flight back home was beyond soothing.It was just me in the jet, with the exception of the flight attendant and the pilots, but that was okay. I rested my head against the soft seat, staring at the departing city of Paris with a faint smile.I can’t believe I just traveled to Paris.For a date. I shook my head, turning back to the empty space of the jet, still in disbelief.My gaze wandered a bit too many times to Mr Leota's seat opposite mine, and I bit my inner cheek at the empty seat. I’m already missing him..I sighed, leaning back as I thought about everything that had happened. How chaotic can one date go? We traveled, he bought a freaking mansion, we had a date on a boat, I nearly drowned, we had another date at a restaurant he completely booked, and now..Now I’m here.On my way back. Alone.What was so important that he couldn’t come back with me?I didn’t want to know the answer, staring out the window as the buildings shrank as we flew higher, and eventually the smoot
Ex-fiance's regret chapter 63.
DIANA I gaped at him in disbelief. He couldn’t be serious.“You booked the whole restaurant???” I stared at him wide eyed.“Don’t you like the privacy?” Mr Leota cocked his head to the side.“That’s not the point, Mr. Leota!” I let out a breath, staring at him in disbelief.“This soufflé is really good.” He said calmly, taking a spoon into his mouth, completely disregarding what I said. “Are you always like this?” I chuckled, shaking my head slightly.“Charming? Yes, all the time.” He smirked as he sipped his champagne.“I meant do you always go above and beyond for a woman?” I rolled my eyes, leaning back.“You think this is above and beyond?” He raised a brow. “If this isn’t, then what is?” My brows drew together to a slight frown.“Something I can’t pay for.” He said, his voice was low as he stared at the dish.“And what’s that?” I couldn’t stop my curiosity when I asked, raising the spoon to my lips.“Something I do not have to give.” He sounded guarded as he revealed, meeting
Ex-fiance's regret chapter 62.
DIANA My eyes were stuck to the window, watching the buildings pass me by as we drove.I couldn’t even look at him.Why was I feeling this way? Like I wasn’t in his arms the night before.The last time I’d slept that peacefully was when he slept with me in my apartment , and for some reason, I thought I’d never experience that again. And yet here I was..I turned to him, watching him quietly as he drove, how his hands gripped the steering wheel… how much I envied the steering wheel- DIANA! “What happened to the driver?” I swallowed, tearing my gaze away from his hands.“I fired him.” Mr Leota said plainly.“Why?” I stared at him in shock, my brows drawn together. “Did he do something? “His services are no longer needed.” Was his inly explanation.“I see…” I mumbled, but i couldn’t help thinking that he only fired him because of that incident. “Is it because of what happened last night?” I asked, blurting out exactly what I was thinking.“It’s safer not having a third party arou

JEROMESince I’d woken up I haven’t been able to stop staring at her, snuggled in my arms, her face buried in my chest.She looked so beautiful, so at peace…I clenched my jaw as I gazed at her, my hand stroking her face lightly.She looked so serene when she slept, I furrowed my brows as I remembered how she’d looked at the bakery… she was disguised, ever so poorly.Her life has become so chaotic with just being involved with me.She would be so much better off without me..So much safer. My phone rang from the bedside table, and I reached for it, careful not to move too drastically, so she didn't wake up.“What have you found?” I asked as soon as I answered the call.“We interrogated the stewardess and the driver, and their statements correspond.” The investigator announced through the line.“So which one of them did it?” I turned my gaze to the window as my jaw tightened.“None of them, sir.” “How can - “ I was about to raise my voice when my anger rose, but then I paused, turnin

DIANA The second after he locked lips on mine, he lifted me in his arms and carried me up the stairs. His eyes were fixed on mine, dripping with a desire we both shared. As he got to my room, he kicked the door open, and dropped me on the bed, climbing on top but careful not to put all his weight on me, joining with my lips once more. My eyes closed shut, as I wrapped my arms around his neck, urging him to come closer, diving deeper into his kiss. He placed his hand on my breast, giving it a tight squeeze, causing a moan to flee from my throat and instigating a stir in my lower belly. And immediately I felt his hand move to my back, I froze. Suddenly my hearts dropped to the very depths of my belly as his fingers play with the zipper of my jumpsuit on my back. I couldn’t let him see my body. If he did, he’d never be interested in me, with all my scars. Then I closed my eyes, and all I saw was Kevin, the look in his eyes when he saw me for who I was… what I’d become. And sudde

DIANA It didn’t take long before we reached the house, or maybe it did - I was too lost in my thoughts to notice.The driver opened the door for us and as usual, Mr Leota held his hand out for me, and helped me out of the car. I gave him a tight smile as he led me into the house, his hand firm on my waist, like he was afraid I’d leave and end up in the water again. He placed me on the couch gently, “Wait here.” He said and went into the kitchen. I clasped my hands together tightly as my mind raced. Why would someone try to kill me?I mean, I understood people stalking me, taking pictures of me. But murder?? That is not something I envisioned would happen. Mr Leota came out of the kitchen with a mug in hand, walking over and sitting next to me. “Here,” he said, handing me the mug in his hands, the smell of coffee immediately hitting me. “Thank you.” I gave him a small smile, and I took a sip of the coffee. It burnt my tongue a little, but I didn’t mind. I was freezing, the he

DIANA It happened so fast. I was already beneath the waters before I realized what had happened. As I sunk deeper and deeper, like there was an anchor dragging me to the depths, my eyes caught their figure.It was blurry, rippled by the surface of the waters, but I could tell someone was there.Hope filled my lungs along with the fresh water, as I raised a hand in a plea for help, to be saved. They gazed at me for a moment too long, and they left. They left me to drown. To die. Once I realized this, I began to struggle, my limbs moving frantically in an attempt to get to the surface.I only sunk faster, and the piercing pain in my lungs was almost unbearable, but not as the thought of dying.Lost in the middle of a lake in Paris. It truly took my breath away. It was my throat that tightened first. I felt my lungs squeeze under the pressure of the lake, the blood that flooded to my head as I struggled felt like fire beneath my skin, it was funny because now that I paused to consi
