I wished I could say no, that he had the opportunity and lost it, but I couldn't utter the words. There was a lump in my throat, my heart beating fast, and I felt a tremendous chill in my stomach, making me both apprehensive and expectant at the same time.
Edward seems to have noticed that words failed me because he takes my lips by storm, kissing me with intensity, leaving me completely at the mercy of the sensations that were being awakened in my body.
“Edward…” His name came out of my lips in an incomprehensible lament.
I felt his hands move up to my neck, caressing that sensitive area, and then reach my nape, holding me firmly. His fingers touched my scalp, sending shivers throughout my body.

BeatriceI looked around my room, still stunned by everything that had happened in the last few hours. Reflecting on the speed of the changes that unfolded.However, I chose not to analyze anything at that moment. I was overcome with a happiness I hadn't experienced in a long time, and that feeling was what mattered. After all, Edward was my husband, we were legally married, and there was nothing wrong with what we were doing.With excitement coursing through my body, I finally got out of bed and went in search of something to wear for our dinner. I knew Edward would return to the room soon, and some intuition told me that he was telling the truth when he said that if I stayed lying down, we wouldn't leave the house that day.Unlike the last time we shared dinner, Edward took me to one of his favorite restaurants, an extremely luxurious place frequented only by London's highest elite. When we entered the restaurant, I noticed discreet glances turned in our direction. However, it didn'

BeatriceEdward called me in the late afternoon, inviting me to go out for dinner again. Upon hearing his voice, my heart skipped a beat, and I found myself questioning if he was still upset about our previous conversation."I don't want us to stay in this deadlock," he said, his voice sounding soft and warm. "I'm trying to rebuild the marriage between us."I remained silent for a moment, pondering his words. I wasn't sure if I was ready to dive back into that complex relationship, but something in his sincerity touched me."Alright, Edward, I accept. Let's go out for dinner tonight."He seemed genuinely pleased with my response. This time, however, my heart was lighter. I wanted to give this fresh start a chance, and I hoped Edward was also willing to do so.In the evening, Edward took me again to his favorite restaurant, and the atmosphere was completely different from the last dinner. He was determined to make me smile and made an effort to make the night enjoyable.We talked about
Rejected by the Tycoon The Return of the Rival
EdwardA sense of total disbelief overcame me as I watched Beatrice simply leave the restaurant, giving me no explanation. She left me standing there alone, after the unfortunate way Louise questioned our relationship. Beatrice had never done anything like this before, and I could never have imagined that she would be capable of such an act.Despite feeling extremely irritated with her actions, I couldn't entirely say that she was wrong to do so. Louise had crossed all boundaries, questioning me in that way about something that was none of her business.“Why are you looking at me with that angry face, mon chéri?” Louise dares to ask me, pretending to be clueless.“Don't play dumb, Louise; it doesn't suit you. I must say I'm quite disappointed with your a

BeatriceInside Sebastian's car, I noticed he was looking directly at my face as if searching for something."What were you doing on the restaurant sidewalk?" he asked, showing both concern and joy. "Especially alone!""I was looking for a taxi," I replied without going into further details."Were you crying?" he asked, furrowing his brow.Upon hearing his question, I remembered that I had indeed let a few stubborn tears fall down my face, and that fact now left me quite embarrassed."I tripped and almost twisted my ankle, but I'm fine, don't worry," I blatantly lied. "I can't believe you're in London and didn't contact me, Sebastian."I quick
Rejected by the Tycoon What Changed?
BeatriceI barely slept, and by the time the day dawned, I was already up, anxious for the time when I needed to be at the newspaper. Only then could I occupy my thoughts with something other than my husband, who is, in fact, my ex-husband, but not really.What a tremendous confusion I was making!And then there were Sebastian's words that wouldn't leave my mind for a single minute. Now everything made sense because since Edward completely changed his attitude towards me, I wondered what had led him to do that when he never tried to make our marriage work.I always fought alone, always loved alone.The truth is that Edward always left me alone in every way, and now he was trying to recover something for which he never cared. The reason could only be the one Sebastian so wisely pointed out.With those thoughts tormenting me every moment that morning, I drove to the newspaper on autopilot, not paying attention to anything. I didn't even know how I managed to get to my office and start a
Rejected by the Tycoon Indecision and Jealousy
EdwardI opened up my heart to Beatrice, at least about the feelings that had been consuming me since I realized the mistake I made in neglecting my marriage and allowing my wife to reach the point of asking for a divorce. But there were some things that Beatrice wouldn't want to know at all, and those were better kept secret, as nothing good would come from their revelation, and I fervently hoped that my wife wouldn't press me for answers to certain tricky questions. But it was clear from the look she gave me that her feelings were confused; she was puzzled, not understanding what was going on, besides the insecurity that was always present whenever we talked about us."I understand your suspicion, my love," I thought it best to say. "I can't expect you to believe me, to change everything again, but I hope we can come to an understanding."Beatrice withdrew from me, turning her back and trying to create as much distance as possible in that tiny room. This left me frustrated, as she c
Rejected by the Tycoon Unexpected Proposal
BeatriceAfter bidding farewell to my cousin, I closed the door and leaned against it, lost in thoughts about what Sebastian had said regarding Edward sending him away, insinuating that it was motivated by jealousy. It seemed absurd, especially considering that our marriage had been based solely on a contract.Even now, I still struggled to believe Edward's declarations of love, after everything we had been through together and the way he had treated me during our time married.Absorbed in my thoughts and still leaning against the front door, I was surprised by the sound of the doorbell in the living room, which intrigued me, as Sebastian had barely left. I deduced it could only be him returning, so I stepped away from the door and opened it with a smile.“Edward?" I spoke
Rejected by the Tycoon A Fresh Start
BeatriceI feel a warm, firm body next to me in bed, and even though I'm already awake, I keep my eyes closed, just to enjoy a little more of the intimacy of this good moment.“You've been so lazy lately," I hear Edward's amused voice, still husky from sleep. "It's already past eight o'clock, dear."That information catches me completely off guard, and I open my eyes immediately, truly startled by the lateness of the hour.“I can't believe it!” I say hurriedly, trying to get up.Edward, however, holds my hands and stops the movement, keeping me captive in his warm embrace, close to his soft and wonderfully cozy body.“We still have some time," he says, and I feel h

Rejected by the Tycoon New Loves
AndrewAccepting the invitation to dinner at Beatrice and Edward's house was a sudden decision. I felt hesitant, but at the same time, intrigued by the opportunity to rekindle the friendship that had been shaken by emotional issues.Talking extensively with Beatrice in the preceding days brought much-needed clarity. I realized that the weight of trying to win the love of a woman still in love with her ex-husband was a mistake. The friendship with Beatrice, after all, was much more valuable than any unrequited romantic desire.Upon arriving at Beatrice and Maddock's house, I noticed the presence of Abigail, Edward's sister. An inexplicable nervousness seized me, arousing my curiosity. We exchanged glances, and a subtle tension hung between us, something I admit I did not overlook.
Rejected by the Tycoon Overflowing Happiness
BeatriceWe conversed animatedly during dinner, reminiscing about stories and sharing laughter. I looked at my husband, that beautiful man now entirely dedicated to my needs, reflecting on how much our lives had changed since the day I left that house, determined to forget a year of rejection I lived with Edward and pretend that I no longer loved him when in reality, my love for him only grew each day."While Timothy is almost a young man, Archie is just a baby, and Beatrice is pregnant, soon she'll also have her baby in her arms," Sebastian commented suggestively, looking at Elizabeth, and we all eagerly awaited to hear what he would say next, with smiles of anticipation on our faces. "I also want to have a baby, my love."He didn't disappoint us. We all found what he said very funny, and Elizabeth tu

BeatriceToday I woke up with uncontained joy in my heart. As I got ready for work, I found myself smiling at the mirror, my hands gently caressing the slight swell of my belly. I was radiant, feeling a deep connection with the little being growing inside me.Upon arriving at the office, I was greeted with warm wishes from colleagues and friends. Everyone noticed my good mood, and I couldn't help but share the news of my pregnancy with them. Each smile and congratulations made my day even more special.I was heading back to my office after a meeting when I nearly bumped into Andrew. I hadn't seen him in weeks. The way he had exited my life had left me hurt and confused. However, upon seeing him again, I felt a strange calm in his presence."Hello, Beatrice,
Rejected by the Tycoon A Special Gift
BeatriceDespite everything that had happened between us, my heart insisted that I should trust Edward. I decided to trust him in the same way he trusted me. And so, with the security of his love and confidence in his loyalty, I shared about my pregnancy. His happiness was so evident that there was no room to doubt his feelings."We should tell Timothy," Edward said with remarkable enthusiasm."I'll pick him up from school with you," I said, equally excited. "And together, we can share this news with him."Edward agreed immediately, shutting down his computer and grabbing his work folder. We walked together toward the door. Passing by Edward's secretary, I briefly recounted what had happened when I arrived at his office that afternoon."Who are you calling?" I asked, surprised to see him dialing a number on his phone.Edward just waved his hand, asking me for a moment, but he hugged me, keeping me close to his body while making the mysterious call."Mrs. Steve? Yes, it's me," Edward s

EdwardDespite Beatrice choosing a safe distance between us, the fact that we were willing to clarify everything left me satisfied."I haven't spoken to or seen Louise for months, Beatrice, since that night at the restaurant when we reunited, and she acted rudely and disrespectfully toward you. Something I could never forgive."Beatrice seemed about to interrupt me, opening and closing her mouth several times but managed to stay silent, so I continued with my explanation."Today, Louise showed up at my company unannounced, and I received her as I would with any acquaintance because that's exactly what she is to me now," I made a point to emphasize that. "She was seeking strong sponsorship for her modeling career, and apparently, her finances aren't doing well. She thought appealing to me and our history would be a good idea.""And it seems like it worked," Beatrice interrupted with visible irritation. "You were about to kiss each other."I took a deep breath and struggled to keep calm
Rejected by the Tycoon Unpleasant Surprise
BeatriceTo my complete horror, Edward wasn't alone in the room, and the scene before me was, in fact, highly compromising. I was speechless, as I didn't expect to find Louise Orleans in my husband's office."What's going on here, Edward!?"Edward and Louise were standing face to face, with her hands clasping my husband's neck, and he was holding her hands with his own. I was bewildered. What exactly was happening there? Were they about to kiss? The scene denoted an unacceptable level of intimacy."It's not what you're thinking, Beatrice," Edward quickly distanced himself from Louise, removing her hands from around his neck. "Louise was just leaving, right, Louise?"Edward looked at Louise quite eloquently, sugg

EdwardI left home that morning with a wonderful sense of peace and well-being after a family breakfast. Timothy was also radiant."Tell me more about your mother, Timothy. I want to get to know the woman who raised you so wonderfully well. Never forget how special you are to us, Beatrice and me."During the drive to school, Timothy shared emotionally charged details about his mother and life in Kyiv before the war reached the city.When I parked the car in front of the school, Timothy's words deeply surprised me."And I'll be very happy if our family grows, and I get a little brother like Archie."Beatrice and I had never discussed children before; after all, our ma

BeatriceTimothy was ecstatic about the idea of moving to Edward's mansion, which only strengthened my confidence in the decision. Edward invited us to visit the house the next day, keeping the reason for the visit a secret, which made me anxious.When we arrived at Edward's house the next morning, I didn't see anything out of the ordinary that could catch my attention or be the surprise he intended to show us. However, when he led Timothy and me to the first floor of the house, we finally discovered what he had planned."Wow!" Timothy exclaimed, covering his mouth with his hand, his eyes shining with admiration."How beautiful!" I said, equally enchanted.Once again, Edward managed to touch my heart, breaking down the barriers I had
