Chapter 103 — Boys’ night
As soon as I get to my apartment, I feel like I’ve been straight punched in the stomach. I’m back in the clothes I was wearing last night before I left here, but now, with wet hair and a flushed face, I come across the person I would least like to meet right now — my father. He’s sitting on the couch, wearing his pajamas that reveal the strong muscles in his arms.
He looks at me after putting his mug down. There’s no surprise on his face... in fact, there’s no expression at all. I shudder and walk inside with withered shoulders. Honestly, my face is burning so badly that I wouldn’t be surprised if it caught fire.“I made coffee.” He says, turning his eyes back to the TV, watching something I don’t really care about. He seems a little distant, and that makes my chest sink into a painful sadness. “How was your evening?”I stop beside the couch, looking at him with a guilty expression. I cross my arms, looking at the screen, pretending to be interested in the news on TV. “GreaRelated chapters

“Are you all right, sweetheart?” Daddy asks me quietly from the other side of the kitchen island, looking at me with concern. I’m almost leaning over the counter, my mouth feeling dry. “Would you like some water?”I look at him in surprise and nod, watching while he quickly hands me a glass of ice water. But even as I take small and slow sips, I’m still aware of the conversation unfolding around me.“I’m flattered that you’ve made room in your schedule to meet with your friends... what’s changed?” Kevin asks with a certain sarcasm, which catches my eye.Julian shrugs his shoulders and puts his hand on the back of his neck, massaging out some tension, “Not everyone has as much free time as you, Kevin. I heard you sold your company.”Kevin raises his hands, not too worried, “I’m retired from the hard work.”“Don’t you think you’re too young to retire? You’re what, 37?”“Thirty-five, actually.” Kevin corrects, although he doesn’t seem to mind the mistake. “But, well,

Hah... That sucks. Why did this thing have to start today? It’s like the universe is against me. But what else can I do but get through the night?That’s why I leave Angelee in her room, even though every step away from her has the force of a punch in my guts... However, approaching the boys, I can see that she was right. Their serious eyes are on me, almost suspicious, and I certainly don’t dare look at Mike as I grab a beer and sit down in the armchair.“Is she all right?” Ambrose asks, cutting through the silence that hangs between us and the sounds of the TV starting to play the long-awaited league. “I didn’t want to cause any trouble.”“She said she’s fine, just a bit sick today. I think she drank too much on the date last night.” I lie, throwing the bottle cap on the table without any caution, and my clenched teeth make my voice a little harsher than it should be.“Looks like someone’s in a bad mood today,” Kevin says loudly, like a hint thrown into the air.

I knew things wouldn’t be easy, but I didn’t think it would be so hard. This definitely isn’t the way I’d like to have this talk... how I want Mike to find out... But things don’t always go as we expect or planned.“How long has it been?” Mike runs his hand over his face, through his hair, impatient. Faced with my silence, he raises his voice, furious, “How long have you been having sex with my daughter?”“It’s been a while,” I say, sighing, standing up now that my legs are firm enough to support me. “Before you got back from your trip.”Mike looks at me with anger and shakes his head, opening a beer. His broad back seems really far away at the moment. “Of course, I should have known. I’m an idiot. I didn’t want to see it even if you were rubbing it in my face.”I feel my throat tighten.“That was you in the bathroom, wasn’t it?” He downs his beer in several gulps, still with his back to me. “You were having sex with my daughter while I was on the other side, and

I didn’t have the heart to go home after that catastrophe. I knew that my father needed some time to get his head together since the way everything happened wasn’t the best. I needed some time, too... I think we all did.I’ve been lying in Julian’s bed since I woke up. I feel weak as if my body is weighed down. I move from side to side, looking for a little more comfort that might ease my sadness, but even staring at an empty spot in the room, I keep remembering the moment I saw Julian on the floor and my father about to punch him. I don’t need to close my eyes; that scene has tormented me even when I’m awake.Yes, I always knew that my crush on Julian wouldn’t please my father, and I tried to hide my feelings from everyone; after all, it was just an unrequited love... until he kissed me on my 19th birthday… Silly me, I thought things would change... But when we arrived at the penthouse in Madrid, my father was already there. I still remember the quick strangeness that hun

Nova York — Seven years before.New York is truly incredible, just as Mom described it. The one time she came here was enough to mark her memory. I never understood why she was so fond of this city, but I have come to understand. The letter she left me, the one in my hands, tells everything she went through, how she searched for my father and his family tried to buy her silence... And how, even so, she traveled to New York only to find out about his recent engagement, with a baby in her belly, the fruit of a fling between young people with different burdens.And even though I’ve read it so many times, seeing the words in this perfect handwriting still makes me cry, [...] Maybe the two of us didn’t mean anything, but he gave me you, my angel. And I accepted his family’s proposal because it seemed like the best thing to do. He could get on with his life and the family he would build with that other girl, and I could get on with mine, just the two of u

Nova York — Seven years before.Mr. Adams drove me to a huge villa in his car, and I confess I didn’t believe there was such an incredible place beyond the buildings and the grey city. Surprisingly, there is plenty of green, especially in this residential neighborhood through which he drives, passing through large iron gates. The estate is so large that I’m surprised. I knew that my father was a wealthy man who came from an aristocratic family... but seeing it with my own eyes now gives me a chill in my stomach. When he parks the car, I start to hyperventilate. My hands are sweating, even with the intense cold that affects my body and makes me shiver. “Don’t worry, girl,” Mr. Adams says, catching my fearful eyes. “This isn’t the family home... it belongs to Mike alone.”Oh, that’s right, he’s read the letter and already knows what they think of me.I turn my eyes to the large classic mansion, its large pillars and windows, and the centuries-old trees that

Elisa and I met during the darkest period of my life. And she seemed like a light that brought warmth back to my body... It was a single night that changed my whole life... a memory I cherish, even though it reminds me of my powerlessness, of how I was a puppet in my parents’ hands.We talked about the past, about our pain. Elisa understood me; she also had lost the people she loved most. A lonely soul, but one who had learned to live in solitude, and her fire of life brought warmth to my body, to my soul.Elisa gave me everything I could ever want without me even dreaming of it. But my life wasn’t mine. Everything I was, had, and should be belonged to my family, to their whims. It was always my father’s absolute decree, my mother’s narcissism. What matters is the power obtained by influence, by the old money that moves this world. Everything perfectly aligned with the gears of society, just as my family wanted — an old family, old customs, and suffocating traditions t
Fallen for Daddy's Friend Chapter 111 — “Did you find the culprit?”
When the sun rises with the start of another week, I feel an extreme sense of foreboding. It’s as if my body had already sensed a chill even before winter arrived. A terrible nausea forced me to look for a stomach medicine, but that didn’t do much good, as my intuition kept screaming in my head that the day would be tough.Things seem calmer with my father, but not between him and Julian... not that they’ve really tried to make any other contact. That worries me, honestly... I never wanted to shake their friendship, but I feel responsible for it now.Hah, I just hope this storm vanishes soon...Just like this discomfort of mine.For now, I just need to put on a smile and get through this day, dealing with the bomb that’s to come. However, the moment I arrive at the office — late because of the morning sickness, I sense a great tension in the air. The employees are gathered in small groups, spread around each other’s desks, chatting. Even when I arrive, they don’t dis
