"Sharon who was the one that took care of your debt when you had nothing?" She asked while walking back and forth.

"It was you, Cleo." I answered in a whisper.

"Who gave you money, clothed you and fed you when your club went bankrupt?" She asked.

He answered and walked ahead to the receptionist.It was past lunch and I had planned to relax in my office alone, I didn't expect to be called out again by that selfish man.Roy came back and held my hand."This way."

The place was quiet and only a few people were there, everything about it looked well taken care of and very expensive."I'm sure he will be here soon." He whispered then pulled out a chair for me when we reached the table."Thank you." I said softly then sat down.

I asked with my best smile."Um.....""Please," I whispered."Sure." She answered then stepped back.I walked in and waited for her to close the gate. When she did we went to the house."Wait here."

I had been tense since yesterday. I received a phone call from Pete telling me that he got the information that we needed and that he was going to board a plane right away. I was impressed that he worked very fast and serious."Fine, I'll try and calm down." I said then poured some whiskey in my glass and gulped it down."Wow, you need to work on your relaxing techniques, because one day you won't have that glass of whiskey right there. You will end up gulping down water or juice." He said with laughter."I would just g

I answered coldly."Cleo what's wrong?. Why are you talking to me in such a rude way?" She asked."I told you a lot of times to seduce Alex and pretend to be pregnant. Yes, I helped you get him in bed and by now you could have told him that you are carrying his child. How dumb can you be Sharon?"

In the morning she said nothing and completely ignored my presence."Well Sharon and I where at Cleo's house celebrating her anniversary, we had a drink and later on I don't know what actually happened. I just found myself in bed with her." I said loudly as Cian opened his mouth wide open in shock."I seriously don't remember anything happening between us, and you know?. that's not the bad part," I said as he closed his mouth."What could be worse than that?" He asked in nearly a scream."Can't you guess?" I asked then lifted my hand and rubbed my forehead to calm
