2024-10-29 19:42:56“WHAT DO YOU mean?” I asked with furrowed brows.
“You are a good actress, asking and begging for the sympathy of everyone knowing that the evil side is within you,” she fearlessly added.
She now stood beside my bed with crossed arms.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I remained calm and composed.
“You pretended to be Lawrence’s girlfriend and acting like a real one. How was that?” Her gaze deepened on me. “Now he wins me back, so here you are now, chasing after him as if you were an official!”
I swallowed the thunder forming in my heart. She already knows the truth. What should I say?
“Oh? Why can’t you speak now?”
I looked at her with disgust. “If you’re here to fight, you can get out because I don’t have time for that.”
“No. I don’t stomp down to your level. I just want you to know who I am in Lawrence’s life and where you should be!” Her voice was full of sarcasm.
I chuckled lightly, causing her face

AS SOON AS I entered my car, my cellphone rang. But before I could answer it, the call ended. I put the handbag on the shotgun seat before starting the engine, but my cellphone rang again. I took it quickly to answer, but I did not move when I saw Lawrence’s name come out. My pounding heart is almost choking me. The familiar pain hit my nerve unexpectedly. I stared at my phone for a beat second, not knowing if the call would be answered or not. I drew out a breath and decided to turn off my phone. I want him out of my system, and I can only do that when I can completely avoid him. I drove quietly home, but my forehead furrowed when I saw the familiar car parked opposite our house. I was in the car for a few more minutes while staring at the car in front of me. “This can’t be happening . . .” I shook my head repeatedly. I crouched down on the steering wheel and tried to calm my submissive heart. Eventuall

“ENJOYING THE COLD and breezy night,” he said casually. “Damn it! Stop playing around, Mr. Saavedra!” I scolded and shot him a disgusted look. “I’m not here to play games with you, Margaux. I’m just here to apologize.” I just ignored him and quickly turned around to get out of the water. I picked up my clothes one by one. “Please, Margaux, let’s talk.” He stopped my arm. I shut my eyes firmly. The night air filled my chest before I turned to him. I had prepared my sigh and kicked him out of the mansion, but my lips felt his. I blink, closed my eyes, and blink again. He’s wearing nothing but black boxer shorts. Water from his dark hair is dripping on the textile and slowly runs down to his broad shoulders. I stared for a moment with admiration. His strong chin, hanging jowls, slack mouth, and neck muscles were his drumhead tight. He looked like hell. All of it can easily bring me down. Easily. Even though I didn’t want t

“GOOD MORNING!” HE greeted me with a hottie smiled on his face. I glanced at some of the staff he was talking to, who were scrambling to leave in front of me before looking back at him. I simply nod, subtly cross my arms across my chest and try my best to act normal. “What can I do for you, Mr. Saavedra?” I ask. His dark eyes lock with mine. He looks even better when I’m this close. I sighed and quickly averted my eyes. “Your dad called me early this morning and asked me to help you out for the party,” he said in a serious tone. I scoffed and let my eyes wandered around and end to his deep-set eyes. “As you can see, everything is in order. Your staff is really hard-working, so you don’t have to watch them anymore,” I stated. “Margaux—” I hold up my hands to cut him off. “Mr. Saavedra, I’ll just call you if there is a problem. Maybe you understand what I want to happen?” He did not answer; only the sloe-e
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 30: Heartbreak
CARS WERE ALREADY lined up in the hotel parking space when I arrived. I’m wearing a white halter dress, matching with my silvery purse and my half-inch stilettos. I went straight to the main door, where the entire function hall was almost filled with selected guests. From here, I could see Mom and Dad, so I quickly approached them. “Mom, Dad!” I kissed them both on the cheek and hugged them slightly. “Where have you been, hija? You’re late.” Dad asked me in a baritone voice. “We thought you weren’t going to attend the party. We’re worried about you. We’ve been calling your cellphone.” Mom added, “I’m very sorry.” I apologized. “The important thing is you’re here. And before I forgot, your friends are already here. They were looking for you earlier.” Dad nods in their direction. I smile widely because Julia, Samantha, and Ally are already there. Even the boys are complete—Jocko, Santino, William, and Jeremy. Cindy and Ca
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 31: Care
I WOKE UP early Monday to prepare for my maternity checkup with an ob-gyn. I simply bun my hair into a half braid. A little make-up and lip tint are also applied to improve my simplicity. I was also wearing a basic red shoulder strap with flat shoes. I smiled when I heard the doorbell rang from outside the door. I pulled my sling bag vigorously and quickly opened the door. “Peter?!” I suddenly paused for a bit seconds. “Oh, hi!” The shock was undeniable in my voice. I know he’s the one behind the door, but when I saw how handsome he is today, I feel like I have been blank for a while. He stood in the doorway, wearing a huge smile on his face. “Are you ready?” I blink my eyes and nod. “Can I have your hand please, beautiful lady?” he extended his arm to reach mine, which I freely gave. I couldn’t help but laugh at his gesture, and I find him cute. He offered me to see a gynecologist because he said he knew a doctor who c
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 32: Jealous
PETER VISIT MY condo to take me to work every day. Since my stomach is not very obvious yet, working at Collins Corporation is just an ordinary day. He also regularly brings me fruits that I strongly reject, but he often makes excuses for my baby and not for me. Sometimes that’s what I get to eat when I crave food. Even late at night, I call him just to buy me fries at the fast-food chain. But he always refuses because I do not seem to get any nutrients there. But I insist, if he does not give me what I want, I cried on the cellphone so that he can buy me what I want. But more often, I lose my appetite when the food is in front of me. Like today, I called him late at night for a box of pizza. But because it lasted so long, I lost the urge to eat them. “I’m sorry.” I laugh and nudge my shoulders. I sat down next to him while he was leaning on the couch. His eyes were also tightly closed as he squeezed his temple slightly. “Hey . . .” I

“GOOD MORNING!” I smiled while facing the stove while cooking. “Morning. How was your sleep?” I asked as I glanced at him, he was still not wearing his shirt, so I chose to refocus on cooking. “It was good. Hmm, breakfast looks good, huh?” he said huskily. I was shocked when I heard his voice behind my ear. I could feel the warmth of his breath under my skin. “Y-yeah, I’ll prepare bacon and sausages,” I replied casually, did not want to affect his presence behind me. “Hmm, sounds delicious,” he mumbled. I close my mouth instinctively and swallowed the word I was about to spout. My forehead was also sweating because he seemed to be watching what I was doing. “Can I use your shower?” he mumbled again. I nervously nodded. Thankful that he didn’t speak anymore. I just heard the rush of the water from the shower, indicating that he was definitely bathing. I finished serving breakfast and suddenly heard a seri
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 34: Jocko's Birthday
I’M WEARING MY lilac-colored dress paired with kitten heels, which is just right for me. My makeup is also simple, just a light pink lipstick with a blush on and my statement earrings. I just combed my hair and left some details below my ears. I smiled at the mirror with satisfaction. I can’t deny that something has changed in my body, but I just didn’t pay attention to it. As Peter promised, he picked me up before seven o’clock. “I love the way you look tonight,” Peter whispered in my ears. I smiled as I held his arm tightly. “You too, you look good tonight,” I countered. “Am I?” he chuckled slightly. He’s really handsome wearing a back long sleeve polo. His muscles became more toned because of the folds from his hem to his elbow. His pants fit with him, and his furnish animal skin shoe was very impressive. I simply nod. “Yes, you are, Monteverde!” I chucklingly said. As I went downstairs, a smile appeared on my lips w

I GOT A bit of a surprise when a row of resort employees greeted me. I reciprocated with a smile during my step. When my white heels stepped on the sand, I couldn’t help but smile. Maybe there is nothing wrong with undressing it? It doesn’t matter if I wore anything. The important thing is that I get to the end where I know someone is waiting for me. I can see the aisle from here. I can’t still believe this is happening. Tears started to form in my eyes when I saw my friends and relatives waiting for me. They are complete—Dad and Mom with Clarence, Cindy, Carrick, Jocko, and others with their complete attire. That’s when I can’t hold back my tears. It continued to run down my cheek. I paused for a moment as if unable to step on my feet due to too much emotion. Mom and Dad immediately approached me to hug me tightly. Mommy wiped away my tears and handed me the bouquet of roses. “I thought you couldn’t come?” I said with full of

“WILL YOU MARRY me tomorrow?”As if I wanted to laugh at what he said. I turned my attention back to the beautiful city because I could not find the answer.“Tomorrow, I will marry you. I want to make sure you never leave me again, that you will never escape me again.” I was swallowed up by what I heard.“Do you agree?” My lips quivered at his question. I know I have no reason to refuse, but why is it so fast?“We are not yet ready, Lawrence.”He groaned, he licked his lips, and it became redder.“It takes one week to prepare. I make sure everything will be finalized and perfectly polished before I discuss this with you.”My lips parted in his revelation. So, this is the reason he did not see me for almost a week.“I hate you!”My two eyes started to heat up. I let go of his embrace and wiped away my tears.“Hey, where are those tears co
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 78: Marry Me
I LOOKED UP at him again and saw his pale eyes. While staring at me, the tightness in his jaws did not let up.“Forgive me if I hurt you before. Maybe I need to correct my mistakes so I can make the right decision now. I don’t know how I can talk to him!” I cried.He walked up to me slowly and pulled me closer to him, wrapping his arms around me. “Shh, don’t say that. That’s fine. Just trust me.”I sunk into his warmth hard chest. I closed my eyes and smelled his fragrant smell. His hugs still did not change. It was still the same as before. I could feel the warmth of his body: the security and the gentleness.How could it be that I hadn’t seen his love before? Pure, unselfish, free, warm, cozy, and real.“Talk to him. Lawrence is the type of man who will not give up easily. Just trust him.”Maybe he was right. I have to trust and believe we can still fix this.I slowly let g
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 77: Forgive Me
MAYBE HE REALIZED this too and just obeyed the command of his dad to choose Elliesse. It is also not a joke to lose everything he worked for just for Clarence and me.I shook my head as hate and enmity welled up in my heart.My eyes fall again, but I regain my strength. I quickly wiped away the tears that I wanted to drip and tried to calm myself.Eventually, I found myself wandering around the city. I was driving with no direction, and I didn’t know where I was going.Until I passed Peter’s restaurant, where he took me, I no longer bothered to park my car and get inside.I ordered a panzanella and pizza margherita. I suddenly felt hungry as it was served to me while it was still smoking.I started eating while waiting for Brigette to join the stage. I heard from some customers that she would sing tonight.I was enjoying my food when I heard a familiar voice near me. When I looked at it, I did not make a mistake; Jocko was
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 76: Hurt
I DID NOT go to work the next day because of the bad feeling. Lawrence and I did not meet for a few days.After what happened at the party, I did not talk to him again. I don’t think it is the right thing to do. But this is probably the best thing to do right now.If I continue to have a relationship with Lawrence, I am sure there will be nothing left to him. Even everything he worked for will go to nothing. Maybe I should just follow his father’s wishes—and that was to be separated from him.“Margaux, can we talk?” Cindy’s voice spoke from outside of my bedroom door. “Please, Margaux!” she said with a series of knocks.I blew out a deep breath and was forced to open the door.“What are you doing here?” I turned my back on her and went back to bed, and sat down.I heard a deep sighed before she spoke.“I should have asked you the same question! Look at you, Margaux! You

SUDDENLY, MY CELLPHONE rang because of Cindy’s call.“Hello, Margaux?”I immediately noticed the noisy background on the other line.“Oh, why?!”“Come here now!” she said hysterically.I suddenly woke up in bed because of the tone of her voice.“Where?”“Here in Eastwood, in the Royal Highs Subdivision. Just say Carrick’s name to the guard!” After she said that, she turned off the call.Though confused, I obeyed what she said. I headed to the place Cindy was talking about. Gradually I got an idea of what was going on, but I did not want to make a conclusion about it until I had no concrete evidence.In a few moments, I reached the place she says. I looked up at the mansion, where a party was taking place.I tried to call Cindy, but I could not contact her. As she said, I mentioned Carrick’s name to the guard, so I went inside.The
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 74: Friendly Date
I COULD NOT speak immediately. I would have liked to ask what the flowers were for, but I was even more confused when he invited me to have lunch with him.“Don’t worry. It’s a friendly date. I’ll pick you up at twelve. Alright, Margaux?”I was about to speak, but he immediately dropped the call. I could do nothing but sink into deep thought.Could it all have something to do with what he told me at the hotel? I shook my head and just put aside the doubt.When lunch break came, I got myself ready. I also arranged some of my belongings while waiting for Franco.“Mr. Franco Fuentanilla is here!” Karen broadly smiled as she peeked at the door.“Uh, tell him I’m coming out.” I just hovered for a moment as I looked in the mirror and finally left my office.I saw him sitting in the waiting area. He immediately stood up when he saw me.I couldn’t help but smile at him w

“HOW ARE YOU? When is the wedding?” Jocko asked him while swirling the wine in his glass.“Maybe next month, I want to make it as soon as possible,” he said thoughtfully.I was left out. The redness on my two cheeks immediately went up. Lawrence really handles all the details of the wedding. My only role is to wear the gown and the bridesmaids.“You really are a road to forever!” he joke, then had a fist bump with Lawrence.Carrick arrived later, bringing the dinner of Lawrence and me. We walked into the home and decided to dine there.Lawrence remained silent. Even the meeting of his brows was not enough to deter him from looking towards Carrick’s group.“Would you like to go swimming with them, Julia?” he asked coldly.“Uh, not first. I’m okay here.”He leaned back to his seat and looked at me with twitched brows. “So, what do you want to do, then?&
My Sweet Seduction Chapter 72: Rooftop
LAWRENCE PARKED HIS car at the famous hotel. He gave the valet the key to his car and then helped me get out of it.My jaw dropped open as I wandered around the lobby. This is actually my dream hotel. I used to dream of getting in here when I was a child. The beauty and quality of the place are really different. It was Mediterranean-inspired, from the terra-cotta roofing to the white tile floor. Its size is also not a joke.“Good evening, Mr. President!” The one who’s wearing a uniform greeted him.Suddenly I looked at Lawrence with amazement in my eyes. “This . . . is yours?!”He looked at me over his shoulder and smiled broadly.“Gosh!” I just patted my forehead because of stupidity.“I’m one of the stockholders of this company. Actually, I owned fifty percent share of this company,” he said casually.With his posture and kind of smile, I can say that he did not brag about
