Falling For Mr King Chapter 114
Steven cackled as Marie's frantic voice trailed him.“Steven, do not look at my phone. Give it here. And, stop making me chase you!”“If you want it, come and get it, baby.” He said, waving it in the air and laughing when she failed to catch up with him.She stopped, panting as she ducked her head between her laps.“Babe. You're so unfit. You're joining me to exercise henceforth.”“You’ll have to tie and gag me to ever see me in that room of doom.” She said, snatching her phone out of his arm.“ Room of doom? How dramatic you are, my lady.”“It's true, though.”His arms slid down to her waist as he drew her into an embrace.How on earth had her ever thought he’d be able to live without this closeness between them?“What?” She asked, her jutted lips tempting him sorely. He knew they had to get to dinner but what he really wanted to taste first was the sweetness of her lips.“Steven,” She half grumbled before melting in his arms. Reluctantly, Steven pulled his mouth away from hers and s

As Steven pulled into Sandra's driveway, he smiled ruefully at the exquisite apartment she had bought with the proceeds from their divorce. At least one of them had gotten something out of the marriage. This was the last place in the world he wanted to be but his Marie was unhappy and he had to fix it. Mustering the last modicum of strength and patience he had, he alighted from the car and rang the doorbell. Sandra wrapped him in a tight hug before he could say a word. Hands by his side, he tried to extricate himself while upholding the fake smile on his face.“Well, hello there. You're a sight for sore eyes. The billionaire himself, darkening my doorstep.” She said,“Hello, Sandra.”“Please, do come in.” She said, stepping aside for him to enter.He hesitated for a moment because not only did he not want to, she was dressed in a very sheer and short nightwear that left little to the imagination.“Come on, Steven. We can't have a conversation on the doorstep you know. ““Right.” He s

“How can you not know?” Marie said, her voice rising several decibels higher.Was he really serious about not knowing what he had done to get her angry? Were men so clueless?“I don't. Was it something I did today? Marie, I’m struggling here. Help me. I hadn't even seen you before I went out today.” He said in a sincere tone.Maybe she was being irrational. It wasn't like they were actually married. Sometimes, she got carried away and let herself have expectations of him that weren't practical.Steven stood and came towards her.“Marie, don't spiral. Talk to me.” He said.“Nevermind, I’m fine. Sorry I bothered you. I’m not mad anymore.” She said and made to turn to the door when Steven pulled her back and plastered his head on each side of her head.“Let me go.”“Come on, Marie. Please.” He said, pleading with his hands and eyes.“I mean it, Steven. You didn't do anything wrong, I overreacted like I always do and I'd like to just forget that happened.”“Marie, please.” He said, cuppin

“Oooh, Rick look, we’re having Lobster Ravioli tonight. Chef king is in his element.” Marie said, rubbing her hands together with flourish.“And we’re also having a special guest tonight. So be in your best behavior, Rick. No interviews.”“Who's the special guest? Is it James or Joanna?” Marie asked, her eyes widening at the thought.“No. Like James is a special guest. He practically lets himself in every other day.”“Only because your bromance is so strong you gave him a key. You won't fool me with this grumpy nonsense anymore.” She retorted, smiling as Steven rolled his eyes at her.“Rick, can you be a doll and set the table for four please?” Steven asked“Kay.” Rick said, jumping into action as Marie walked up to Steven and leaned against the counter.“Who's coming to dinner?”“A special guest.”“A celebrity?’ Marie squealed, her green eyes shining with hope“Even better,” He said“Can't you just give me a name?” She asked“I'm not. Now go do whatever it is that you do and stop bot

“I have no idea what you’re talking about, Steven.” Marie said, turning her face away from him as she crossed her arms on her chest.“Are you sure about that, babe?” He asked, swinging her around to face him.“Whoever told you anything was lying. I’m not hiding anything.”“If anything important ever depends on your ability to lie, don’t do it.” He mumbled against her hair before pulling back to hold her face in his hand. Still, she refused to meet his gaze. He decided to put her out of her misery.“No one’s ever tried to take care of me the way you do, Marie. I Can’t think of anyone who’d care about making me happy as you do.”“Steven…”“Shhhhh…I’m talking about my wife.” He said, stroking her hair as she exhaled and melted into his arms.“I mean it, Marie. The only people who’ve done as much as you have for me are people I paid to do so.” He tilted her chin softly until she was forced to raise her shimmering emerald eyes to meet his.“My contact at the awarding body told me someone h

“So, he’s been placed on administrative leave until the investigation is concluded?”“Yup.”“How did he take it?” Marie asked, as she shook out a gray halter neck top from her duffel bag and hung it in the wardrobe. Steven was sprawled on the bed across from her as he watched her unpack.“Not very well. He kept saying I was making a mistake and that his reasons for looking for another job had nothing to do with the leaks.”“The sooner Cadence uncovers the truth, the better so we can put this whole nightmarish episode behind us because I’m so sure…”“Babe, we’re supposed to be getting away from work and every other stressful thing in our lives. We’re supposed to be focusing on how much we love each other.” He said, tugging on her arm as he pulled her to the bed.“How’s therapy been?” He murmured as she leaned against him“Are you asking for genuine reasons?” She teased.“Yes.” He said, trailing her neck with kisses before whispering,“And no. Or maybe both?” She laughed as his lips ti

Stunned, Marie looked across the room and stared at Steven whose eyes were glued to the woman. Perhaps, sending that she wasn't alone, the woman yanked the towel off her head and let out a heart-stopping scream. Startled, Marie screamed as well and held onto Steven.She grabbed the bathroom on the bed beside her and threw it on. Marie yanked her hand away from Steven and glared at him.Could he be more obvious? How could he even be hawking at someone else while she was standing beside him.“Who are you?” The woman asked once all of them had calmed down.“Who are you and what are you doing in our room?” Marie asked in a much harsher tone than she intended. She threw a scalding look at Steven. This was all his fault. The animosity she felt towards this strange woman had everything to do with how her husband had been unable to take his eyes off her perfect body. While Marie packed more cellulite than she was happy about, this woman was all gorgeous skin and curves in the right places.“T

“There's no way I'm getting on that. You're out of your mind.” Marie said, shaking her head as he beckoned onto her.“You owe, Marie. Come on.” Steven tainted, flashing a daring smile at her.“You want me to get on a canopy walk with you? I have a fear of heights, Steven. Did you forget?”“No, I'm very aware. But you've been going to therapy. I think it's high time you started confronting your fears.”“I’ll decide what to do with my fears. Thank you very much.” She said, backing further away from him and crossing her arms over her chest.“Marie, come on. I’ll be right here with you.”“I don't care. That thing wings wildly. I'm not about to fall off into the swamp, Steven.”“Come on, Marie.” He said as more people got in line to explore the canopy walk.He wasn't doing this to goad her, he felt positive that she was ready for this and would crush it if she gave it a try.“I'm not doing it.” She said, shaking her head sideways. She turned to leave when Emma, all carefree and confident,
