Lies in the Billionaire's Eyes Chapter 27
Chapter 27“Celeste is my cousin, Dahlia.” My entire world suddenly stops. His last words are echoing inside my head. However, it seems like I just couldn't process everything in my head. Did I hear him right? Celeste, Sean's ex fiancé, is Ford's cousin? “The first time I met you in Sean's office, I knew what Sean's plan would be. How can't he? It looks like his fucking dead fiancé just rose again. Different body, different person.” He chuckled and shook his head unbelievably. “I warned you that day because I know that you are not Celeste. I even asked my people to investigate your identity just to prove that you are a different person—and you are. That's why I continued giving you warnings about Sean,” he explained.“How was he after Celeste’s death? How were you when your cousin died?” That made him pause. He avoided my eyes and for the first time, I read something through his eyes. The glimpse of sorrows cannot be concealed from those eyes no matter how he avoids my gazes. “S

Chapter 28 “I found one of your relatives, Dahlia.” My brows crossed in front of Sean. How would he find one when I don't even have one? Or maybe I do have relatives? I just don't know where they are. “What do you mean? Don't tell me you spend your money on this?” I appreciate his efforts and benevolence. But I just don't want to take advantage of him because he is damn rich. I don't want to make the rumors surreal that I am only robbing him off. He has already done so much for me and that is more than enough. “Does it matter? I found your Aunt,” I still don't believe. It's just hard to believe as I used to live my life having no blood related around me. “Where is she, then?” I chuckled. “She's in my house,” I paused. Both of our eyes stayed together. I know Sean. He would not lie about it. He has always been serious about this kind of matters. “Just tell me if you want to see her now and we will go there, Dahlia.” A protruded smile flashed on his face. I saw how excited he is

Chapter 29 I didn't know where to go so I decided to go home. What should I do? Sean is not in the office because he's asleep, calling Celeste even when he's sleeping. I feel like I'm going to be sick all of a sudden. The reality slapped me again. I don't need to ask Sean if he's still in love with Celeste, he already slapped it to my face. “What am I doing?” I uttered to myself while looking at the road through the window of my apartment. It began to rain when I came back home. Am I really choosing to be used while hoping that Sean would also forget Celeste and let go of that dark past? I didn't know that it's harder to fight someone who is dead than someone who is alive. I would look like an idiot if I tried to fight the undefeatable Celeste. “Who's that?” I asked loudly as I heard the knocks on my door. I heaved a heavy sigh. I wonder which one from my neighbors it is this time. I walked towards the door lazily, wearing my pajamas. “Sean,” my eyes widened as I saw him drippin

Chapter 30“Are you sure you're okay?” Sean asked while he was busy driving me home. Since I saw that picture inside his drawer, my energy just subsided until it faded. All of a sudden, I felt feeble as if I'm gonna be bedridden. My heart is aching. I couldn't erase from my head how genuine Sean's smile was in that picture. I couldn't help but to compare how he flashes a smile at me. Are those genuine or just a fake one? “Yeah,” I replied. I was trying to pretend like I was fine after that, but I just can't. I can't stop myself from sharing with him the heaviness I feel right now. The problem is, my tongue couldn't even spill what the hell I am feeling. What's the point? I see no point telling it to him. I don't want to force him to forget Celeste, especially that she really was a big part of his life—not just his life but all of their lives. “You don't look fine since this afternoon. Do you feel sick?” He would really not believe me at this point. I am being too obvious that some

Chapter 31“Why is he drunk?” Ford asked while driving us to Sean's house. I glanced at him in the rear mirror and I couldn't answer him immediately. “It's not because of me,” that's what I can assure of. Sean isn't wasted like this because of me. “You cried,” he commented. When I looked back at him, his eyes were just pinned on the road while busy driving. If I knew, he really chose not to look at me the moment he noticed that. I don't know if it is just obvious that I cried or Ford just has keen eyes to notice that. “What’s weighing you, Dahlia?” I drew a smirk. It feels good to hear my name being mentioned all of a sudden. “I think Sean didn't change,” I mentioned. “His heart still calls Celeste and he is still miserable from her death.” I didn't hear anything from Ford. We were covered with great silence along the way. Even if he doesn't talk, I know that there are a lot of things running in his head. “It would be hard to erase Celeste in his life, Dahlia. She's part of him

Chapter 32“Mom, Dad.” Sean stood up from his seat while I was left with my heart racing. How can't I? He just called them as his mother and father. I didn't know what to do so I quickly stood up as well and chose to bow my head in order for me to avoid their eyes. They both looked stunned the moment they saw me. Their eyes were not at Sean, they were at me. They are eyeing me as if I am a ghost. I easily absorbed everything. I almost forgot that I look like Celeste. “G-Good afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Cohen,” I tried to greet them as politely as I can. But it seems like everything is not yet processed in their heads. “Goodness,” his mother uttered, wearing those teary eyes. She walked towards me and even cupped my face gently. I couldn't move because of that. “Cele—”“Let's talk in the garden,” Sean said immediately before his mother could even say something to me. “Now,” Sean added, firmer than earlier. I watched them leave but they couldn't just easily take their eyes off me. B

Chapter 33 I skipped work. Sean and I had a fight back to his house yesterday. It was what I was trying to get rid of, but then, we still ended up arguing about it. I knew that I would never get the answer I wanted from Sean easily. He's too firm to break and spill everything. “Is this your way of skipping work?” Charlotte asked while she was looking for everything that she would buy for her condominium. We were both in the grocery, strolling around and grabbing everything we could buy. My salary was wired to me so I have money to fill my kitchen. “This is better than seeing Sean,” I replied as I sighed heavily. It's not like I don't want to see him again. If I do, I would just break our contract and resign. The problem is, I don't know how I am supposed to face him after what happened. I have no idea what got into me yesterday and I started that little argument about Celeste. Well, he was suddenly upset when I didn't even talk about something big with his mother. “Why don't

Chapter 34 “Why am I here? I want to go home,” I tried to stand on my feet but ended up falling. My heart almost jumped out of my chest as I was waiting to land on the floor. However, Sean was too fast and he was able to catch me with his broad arms. That addictive scent invaded my nose again and I found myself closing my eyes. “I'm fine,” I uttered. Well, much better than earlier. I think I'm already sober now. I even pushed him away on his firm chest to use my remaining strength. “You're drunk, Dahlia. Do you really think I would let you go home in that condition?” He asked. I took that chance to stare at his handsome face. His eyes were dark and somehow cold as well. Is he upset again? He's obviously trying to hold it back for some reason. “I can handle myself,” I said firmly. I even had the audacity to throw his hands away from me as I started to take steps. We are in his room. He brought me here after getting me out of the bar. My head is still heavy. My world didn't stop m
