THE BILLIONAIRE OBSESSED WITH A MARRIED WOMAN 76
"But you did not give up on the marriage. You continued with Arabella. You only signed the divorce because Joseph forced you," Angel insisted, her voice trembling with doubt."No, no, no. Of course not. I stayed married because I needed Arabella to take down Damon. But I never loved her," Mason asserted, kissing Angel's forehead tenderly. "The woman I truly love is right here in front of me, and I need her help.""Mason..." Angel embraced him, her vulnerability laid bare. "Then why did you call out for Arabella when..." She could not bring herself to finish the sentence."Because I felt anger towards her. She was haunting my mind, tormenting me. But I promise it won't happen again," Mason assured her, holding her close.They held each other tightly, Angel driven by love, Mason by ulterior motives."I thought you loved her," she said softly."I never did," Mason replied. "And about my schemes... I won't drag you into anything dangerous. I would never do anything to harm you. Trust me."

It did not take long until she finished shaving Damon. And for a first time, it wasn't bad."This is my best" she commented herself.Damon turned his face from side to side as he analyzed the work Arabella had done. And even if he was bad, he would have been worth it."Thanks"Damon looked more youthful without his beard, but he was still imposing. His jaw was marked, his lips were defined, his projected nose was symmetrical and its tip was upturned, slightly upwards. His eyes were clearer in the face of all the sunlight that invaded the room. The black strands of his hair were damp and messy.It was a fact that Arabella feared that Damon was close to discovering the truth. But it was also a fact that she wanted that man with all the strength in her body, with every one of her cells. She wanted him so much that she would be able to sustain her lies for an hour longer, just to have him in this span of time.And faced with the tension caused by the proximity, Arabella tightened her legs

Arabella was more beautiful than was safe for herself, and she was able to disarm this man as if she had a manual in hand."Why do not I believe you?" Damon questioned as he raised an eyebrow."Because you need to have more faith" she replied.Arabella slid into the next armchair. She took her cell phone and book that were previously on the armchair, and placed them on the side table in front of her. Damon missed contact with her."The pendant is a crucifix" he informed."Why do not you use it?" Arabella asked, looking at the man's chain that hung around her neck."God and I are not that close" he simplified.The beautiful woman decided that she would not pursue the matter.She looked at Damon with big eyes. “About Victor, thank you very much. In truth. You do not know how relieved I am.”“I will stay too” he nodded.She smiled, then just paid her attention to the book Damon was reading, and was intrigued by the man's recent availability for reading. Not that she knew his habits, but

And as the beautiful woman walked down the hall, she was recognized by the people who worked there. Her beauty was an attraction, but her presence, in itself, caused interest.The beautiful woman knocked twice on Inspector Spencer's door when he reached her."Come in," she heard him authorize, and then she entered.Arabella walked into the disorganized room. There were always some papers on the table, others thrown on the floor, and many in the cupboards.Spencer was good at what he did, but the only mess he bothered to organize was the one the criminals made around town."I am surprised by your visit...without Mason" Spencer said, leaning back in his chair to get a better view of Arabella. “Do you have something for me?”It had been a few days since she visited that police station, thanks for Mason. It was true that he was curious about her visit, trying to decipher something relevant in her face.“Mason and I are no longer together,” she said at once.To say the man's eyes were glas

"I begged them to take me off the case because I did not want to be the man on the front lines against such a powerful family, but it was my job. So I buckled down and did what I could to stop the martyrdom. I investigated as far as the stores that Mrs. Banks frequented when she shopped," Spencer said wistfully, looking straight ahead as if he was reliving the moment. “I knew the Banks family had dealings with Volkov. I knew George had met Benedict a few times. But I could not prove it.”“Investigating, I discovered the truth. Benedict and George teamed up to plot against Volkov. Benedict was just a rising fashion designer, he was murdered like a pig and dropped off the map. But George was an important, influential man, he could not end up in a ditch. So there was an agreement between Volkov and the Banks family.” Spencer revealed “George would stay alive, but he would give up his entire empire. In his place, Damon would take the top spot. George's punishment was to stop being king. D

Damon's piercing gaze bore into her, his eyes searching for any hint of what troubled her. The tension in the room was palpable, thickening with each passing moment."No... I just need..." Angel's voice trailed off, her words faltering as anxiety tightened its grip around her throat.Damon's expression remained unreadable, but his concern was evident as he took action to alleviate Angel's distress. Banks promptly pressed a button on his desk phone. "I need a pitcher of water in my office," he instructed.As the secretary quietly entered the room with the water, Angel's heart pounded in her chest. The mere presence of Damon Banks, the powerful and enigmatic figure before her, only added to her sense of unease."Drink the water, calm yourself," Damon's voice was gentle, a stark contrast to the intensity of the moment. "Then tell me why you are here."Angel nodded gratefully, her hands trembling as she reached for the glass. Each sip of water offered a fleeting moment of respite from the

SOME HOURS LATERWith a graceful stride, Arabella entered the conference room, commanding attention in her ensemble — an elegant green dress complemented by sleek heels. Her hair, neatly pinned back, accentuated her sharp features, and as she walked, there was an air of confidence about her."Good afternoon, gentlemen," she greeted, her voice carrying a polite tone subtly infused with determination."Miss Collins," Louis Tompson, the lawyer, rose from his seat upon her arrival, extending his hand in a gesture of sympathy. "My condolences for the divorce?"Arabella's response was swift and resolute. "Not at all," she declared, dismissing any notion of condolence.Seating herself across from Mason, with Tompson positioned at the head of the table, Arabella's eyes met Mason's with a mixture of disdain and relief. Gone was the power he once held over her — she was free now, and she made sure he knew it."Now, the purpose of this meeting is to align the restructuring of the companies," th

TWO DAYS LATERThe lights of New York were known throughout the world. The city awakens, with people bustling around and never, ever stopping. It was a place famous for everything it showed, but few people knew what New York was hiding. Few knew the shadows of the most illuminated city in the world.The shadows were in the suburbs, in isolated areas that not even the sun could reach. Where the streets were muddy, buildings were abandoned and people cried without hope.In a less busy area, where the asphalt ended and the dirt streets began, there was an abandoned warehouse. It was an unfinished building, with exposed bricks and half-shattered pillars.The smell from the warehouse was unsanitary.Dust had dominated the four corners of the room, and everything that was there was abandoned. There were crates at the ends of the warehouse, covered with a dark, dirty tarpaulin.Spencer Davis was in the warehouse, sitting in a chair almost as old as the one he had in his office. Behind the ma
