Resisting My Ex-Bully Another Piece
My stupid plan forced me to stay in the damn ladies' room for more than thirty minutes. I was certain that whoever Ryuu sent as his replacement was currently looking for me, but I decided I didn't care. This was far more important, so I was going to let him or her wait, even if I had to come up with a good lie to explain my absence, like having sudden diarrhea after eating too much chocolate cake…I pressed my ear against the door, realizing that I no longer heard any voices. “Finally,” I groaned before cautiously opening the door and stepping out of the ladies' room.I sighed in relief as I looked around and found the corridor empty. Now that the programmer and his friend were gone, I could only hope my phone was exactly where I'd left it. Pretending to admire the tall plant, I walked over to the pots, certain I looked absolutely ridiculous. Yet, I pushed my acting skills beyond my personal best, putting on a show for… absolutely no one but surveillance cameras and whoever might have
Resisting My Ex-Bully Rescue Mission
“Breathe, just breathe, Josie,” I muttered as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. This was not how I imagined a rescue mission, not that I had a particular idea of what rescue missions should have looked like. Yet, certainly, going out in full evening makeup, carefully styled hair, a long gown, and high-heel stilettos would have never been taken into consideration.“Trust me. The less they suspect, the better,” Kaiden had said after describing his plan.We needed a believable excuse to leave the residence, and a date at one of the best Hong Kong restaurants seemed perfect for that. Surely, Yan Hao would send a car to follow us and check where we were headed, but dressing up would not raise too many alerts. I didn't like this, especially the heels. I could barely walk wearing them, and in case we'd have to run...“Don't worry too much,” Kaiden muttered as he stood behind me and placed his hands on my shoulders. “Everything is planned. We will stop in front of Yichen's apartment bui
Resisting My Ex-Bully Survival
“I told him... to trust me,” was all I was able to choke out as a thick stream of tears covered my face.Kaiden shifted, shielding me from the horrific sight. “It's not your fault,” he whispered, cupping my face and forcing me to look at him. “None of it is your fault.”I sucked in a ragged breath and wiped my tears away. In the corner of the room, I spotted two bags—his packed belongings. He was waiting for us, and we... we'd shown up too late.Careful not to leave any trails or bloodied footprints, Kaiden stepped around the body. Then he crouched down and touched Yichen's skin. “The body's turning cold. He's been most likely dead for a while.”My heart rose to my throat. “No… that's… that's impossible.” I stared at Kaiden, shaking my head. “H-he texted me back. He replied…”“Josie…” Kaiden sighed and placed his hand on my shoulder. “Anyone could send this text. They most likely took Yichen's phone, and—” His words drowned in the violent roar of police sirens.Our heads snapped towar
Resisting My Ex-Bully Rising Fear
KILLIANEstelle and I were heading back to the residence after a rather silent so-called date. Yet another thing to keep some goddamned pretenses, to show our faces in public—together, as a couple. I was against this whole shit, but Estelle begged me—yes, literally begged me—to do it. She half-suggested there might have been consequences for her had she failed to convince me.An emotional blackmail, one I was utterly aware of, but I was also aware there was some truth to her words. As much as I hated this whole situation, I wouldn't want to be the reason she or her mother suffered. Then again, the thought of this fucking tyrant raising his hand on a weak woman made my blood boil. I promised myself I would make Yan Hao taste the exact pain he had caused. Soon.I glanced at my watch and blew out a slow breath, trying to calm down and failing. There was a reason my dinner with Estelle had been filled with silence. Of course, I had no pleasure in conversing with her, but we hadn't talked
Resisting My Ex-Bully Race Against Time
I saw several guards look at me with a certain dose of disbelief as I strode through the courtyard, heading to the main gate. Luckily, none of them was foolish enough to try to stop me. Then again, they didn't try because they didn't receive an order, and I was certain my every step toward the gate had been noted and would be included in the report they'd give Yan Hao.And yet, I met the guards' gazes in a silent challenge as I walked forward. I was done. Gunner had learned of the existence of undeniable evidence. A man swore he had footage proving that Yan Hao had committed murder—an execution performed on American soil. Had Gunner found it, we could have set a perfect trap for Yan Hao, sending him to prison for the rest of his life. Yet, if I confirmed that the fuckers trying to kill Josie and Kaiden had been sent by Yan Hao, I would rather kill him with my bare hands.A black Porsche stopped in front of the gate, a grinning Asian stepping out. “Killian! Long time no see!” He spread
Resisting My Ex-Bully Holding on
JOSIEI must have dozed off, and when I woke up, I was freezing. Trembling, I rose to my feet and reached for my phone. The battery died. “Oh, come on!” I whisper-hissed, angrily pressing the button as if it could miraculously bring the battery back to life.Cursing under my breath, I put the phone back into my purse and drew a deep breath. I needed to focus. Kaiden had told me he would come looking for me. What if he was here while I was asleep?Chills ran down my spine, but I quickly shoved that thought again. I would have never fallen into a deep sleep in such a place. The slightest noise would have woken me up... So was Kaiden still looking for me in other buildings? Or had his condition worsened? He had tried to convince me it hadn't been a serious wound, but I thought otherwise. Now I could only hope it wasn't as bad as I believed...I stepped toward the window; it was still dark outside with no signs of dawning. That meant I couldn't have slept more than an hour, maybe two. Per
Resisting My Ex-Bully Relieved
I wrapped my arms around Killian's waist and inhaled his scent, slightly mixed with gunpowder. Tears streamed down my cheeks, and for a moment, nothing mattered—nothing aside from him, his scent, and his touch. “I heard... shots,” I whispered, leaning my head back to face him.“I killed that fucker,” he murmured.A chill ran down my spine. He said one... I swallowed hard. “There were two,” I breathed out, stepping back. “This other one—”I didn't get to finish as the sound of quick steps echoed from the side of the nearby stairs. “Fuck,” Killian let out a low growl, pushing me behind him as he reached for his gun. Then he motioned his chin at the nearest door. It most likely led to some technical room. “Hide there,” he whispered.I didn't have time to argue as the other man ran into the corridor, shooting. Killian aimed his gun at him and fired before grabbing my hand and hauling me into the room. He stopped on the threshold, shoving me further inside. “Stay there and don't move!” he
Resisting My Ex-Bully No Longer Apart
The more time I spent here, the more I found Gunner's cottage house ideal. I had even found women's cosmetics in the bathroom, and I had been more than glad to use them to scrub off the layers of dust, dirt, and blood.Once I finished taking a long shower, I slid into a far-too-large man's shirt Killian had found for me to wear. With my merely towel-dried hair, I walked through the bright wooden corridor, leading to the master bedroom. When I entered, I found Killian sitting on the bed. I closed the door behind me and walked over to him, slowly taking in his bare chest and abdominal muscles. He had nothing but a small towel wrapped around his hips to cover his glorious, now clean, body.“Come here.” He grabbed my hands and pulled me down to sit beside him. A smile appeared, one I hadn't seen for a while. He looked relaxed as if he had gotten rid of some devastating burden.I studied him. “Is it safe to be here? I mean… I know this place has the best security there is, but... is it OK
