Laura "What?" I was completely in shock at what I had just heard. "What did you do?" "Actually, it wasn't like that; I mean, I did sleep with another woman, but technically it wasn't with my consent... I mean, I was drunk and Suzy wanted to use that to blackmail me,” he explained, and I blinked my
Laura The surgical procedure that Ava underwent had worked, but she needed to sleep there in the clinic in case she had any complications. She was beaming when Annie and I saw her. Terrence was by her side, never letting go of her hand. I decided to keep a smile on my face so as not to ruin her hap
Laura He surprised me when he placed his hand on my thigh, caressed it lightly and continued acting as if it were the most normal thing possible. I gasped, feeling the weight of his hand on my leg despite the fabric of my skirt covering my skin. I looked at him, who looked at me reflexively and gav
Laura “Dear Lord, when I get to heaven, please, let me bring my man~,” Jason hummed, following the lyrics of the song that played from the car stereo he had turned on himself. “It’s your favorite song, right? Or is it not anymore?” He asked with a smile as he tried to get me to return to the conver
"What did you say? Are you serious that you asked that? I swear, Laura, your lack of ambition sometimes surprises me,” he said, shaking his head. “I am ambitious, Jason,” I replied. “Apparently not so much,” he said, chuckling. “I can't just let that woman take everything that's mine like that;
Laura My breathing became ragged because of his touches; having his hands caressing my body with so much appreciation, his nose occupied with smelling my skin, and his arms pulling me closer to him made me close my eyes and pant in my own penury. I could feel his rigid body like a wall behind me, f
Laura “I'll tell you what ails me, Laura. I miss you, waking up alone in this bed, and not being able to have you by my side every morning. Is it too much to ask to want things to go back to the way they were before?” He asked, still sitting on the bed, facing me. “You know I have other goals in l
Laura “Are you going to adopt a baby? Wow, what good news!” I exclaimed while on a call with Ava. She had already left the clinic and returned home safely, and she was now breaking the news to me that Terrence, and she, had decided to adopt a child. “It's really incredible, isn't it? We will have
Max POV “You want me to talk to my husband to help Gideon; is that what I heard?” Laura was asking me that with a look of shock on her face. “That's right, you heard very well,” I replied. “I want you to talk to your husband to help my brother.” Laura Williams Davies wanted to roll her eyes rig
Max POV“Could you give me a minute, please?” I asked as I approached Albert Williams. He was talking to Mel, his wife, and now that I had approached them, they had both turned to look at me.“Is it urgent?” Mel asked me, but it wasn't like I addressed her.“It has its urgency, I admit,” I replied h
Max I had left Lindsay alone with her new boyfriend in order to give them both privacy, especially because Matt Weiss might feel a little intimidated if I was around since he knew I was Lindsay's ex-husband's brother. I was going to find some fun at that party when I felt my shoulders being grabbed
Laura “I can really see your own secretary hitting on your husband and you can’t? Good God, you never change, don’t you, Laura?” Ava was rolling her eyes as she said that to me. I was really in shock as I saw that scene unfolding in front of me and at that moment I couldn't hold back, I immediate
Lindsay “Oh my Goodness, your brother doesn't stop staring at me like that. Is it because of my dress?” I asked, running my hand over my short, skin-tight dress that I had dared to wear for today. Why not, right? Max Bathory chuckled mischievously. “Maybe Gid is missing your feminine attributes, i
Laura I was in a corner of Albert's party with a glass of sparkling wine in my hand, sitting on one of the corners sofas in the company of Ava while she was telling me some gossip, and I was wandering around a little distracted, my gaze in the direction of Jason, who was chatting with some of his f
Zoey The party was in full swing. I didn't know what impressed me more: the undeniable luxury of the decoration or the people walking around, all of them looking like they came out of a movie. The atmosphere was vibrant, but in an elegant way—a play of soft lights and restrained laughter. The dres
Lindsay Melanie sent me the invitation, but I was so hesitant to confirm my presence at that party because, of course, it was her husband's party, who was Max's best friend, my ex-husband's brother, so I knew Gideon would be there. Zoey didn't need convincing; as soon as she received the invitatio
Zoey It was a cold night, but somehow, the anticipation I felt made the environment feel welcoming. Laura, always so generous and friendly, invited me to her brother Albert's birthday party. He was in his 30s, and from what I knew, he was always surrounded by a class of people I only saw in movies
