Chapter Forty-Nine

Eliana's Pov

I stared at the bed, hoping it would split into two if I glared hard enough.

Noah barely spared me a glance as he shredded his clothes and hopped into the shower. We were going to be in the vicinity for a lot of hours, some of which I might not see if Noah keeps looking at me that way.

I know I insulted him at my time of weakness, but wasn't he the one who made everything we ever had a lie? He pretended to me, played with my feelings and now he has the audacity to be mad at me?

He could barely look at me and that really hurt. I bet I not forappearance'ss sake he would be here with the one woman he truly loved, Lillian.

I fumed, landing on the soft bed with athudd. The hotel room was big, so big, it could be called massive. It was a suite, with a kitchen and a sitting area.

The windows werefloor-to-ceilingg, offering a stunning view of the beach side. The king sized bed was placed in the middle and draped with white and gold bedspreads, and opposite i

    Chapter FiftyNoah's PovThe meeting with Mr Alex was brief, the asshole wasn't even apologetic for being late and still dared to order me to his room. But like a business man, I didn't show my annoyance. If he kept that up, then there would be consequences. Unlike Mr Smith, he didn't come with his wife, although I doubt if he had one. I only brought Eliana here because Mr Smith requested she came because his wife would love to meet her and I couldn't say no. How would it look for my relationship?Being so close to Eliana was the last thing I wanted. The images of the positions Oliver could have put her in. I could only feel disgust, anger and pain.I opened my heart and that's what happened. I was taught a lesson.Seeing Oliver barely wearing anything, everything turned red. I could barely see. I sped all the way home, almost crashing into a tree. I planned to drink myself to death, so I wouldn't feel. So I wouldn't think about her anymore. So I wouldn't long for her touch. She wa

    Chapter Fifty oneEliana's Pov The awkward interaction between Noah, Mr Alex and Mr Smith made the atmosphere a lot more tense. Noah sat back in his chair, his two first buttons off and his wine glass in his hand as he watched Mr Alex coldly. He exuded a commanding aura.Mr Alex, seemingly unfazed by Noah's cold demeanour, maintained a polite smile on his face as he engaged in small talk with Mr Smith. I looked at Noah, my heart flipping in my chest. I didn't want to look in his direction but I couldn't resist. Our eyes locked and my heart thumped in my chest. I couldn't look away.In his eyes, I saw a potent mix of anger, desire, and something else, something I couldn't quite decipher.His eyes trailed down my neck, dipping down my neckline. It felt like he was touching me by just looking at me, taking his time at each spot his eyes touched. Slow, seductive, tempting. His eyes rose to meet mine, and they were much darker, desire and anger clouding them. They showed a promise of ful

    Chapter Fifty-twoNoah's Pov I could barely hear what Mr Smith was saying because I could focus on the conversation. My eyes were on Eliana and Mr Smith's secretary. I could kill him. I had so much money to go Scot-free and so many people who owed my favours. I could make him disappear, this night by three am in the morning. I could drown him in the ocean, I'll just plead innocent and claim it was self-defence. I'll do it, I'll fucking do it if he makes her laugh one bloody time-The sound of her giggling excitedly while covering her mouth wafted into my ears and I had barely finished my threat.Okay, that does it."Mr Adler, don't you think we could all benefit if your company and Mr Alex's company both have a partnership? Your expertise in manufacturing and Mr Alex's expertise in marketing would create a powerful combination that could lead to mutual success and growth. What are your thoughts on this?" Mr Smith said, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. He had no idea what he did by a

    Chapter Fifty-ThreeEliana's Pov Noah's back was stiff as he faced the door. His hands were fisted and for a minute I felt scared. He turned to me and set his cold eyes on mine."What was that?" He asked his voice low and cool, like the calm before a storm. The air in the room became thicker and I felt beads of sweat form on my forehead, but I wasn't going to back down. Not today."What was what, Noah?" I asked, feigning innocence and I stared back at him.His eyes flashed with anger and he combed his hand through his hair, frustration etched on his face."Don't play dumb with me," Noah spat, his voice dripping with venom. "I saw you talking to him. Whispering in his ear like some conniving snake."I took a step closer to Noah, matching his intensity. "You're being paranoid, Noah. I was just having a friendly conversation.""No, it wasn't just a conversation," he seethed, his fists clenching tighter. "I saw the way he looked at you. You noticed it too. Don't be a liar."I scoffed, my

    Chapter Fifty FourEliana's Pov Noah didn't come back last night. And as I woke up to the sound of knocking on my door, he wasn't still back. I wasn't able to really sleep last night, I was being eaten up with guilt. I used what hurt him to insult him, but Lillian came back to claim what's hers so I was way off, right?I sighed, opening the door to see Vivian. A part of me wished it was Noah safe and sound. He might be in one Hawaiian lady's room, pounding his frustration into her curvy body while I stayed here, overthinking and replaying our conversation in my head, beating myself over the things I said.Trying to push those thoughts aside, I forced a smile and greeted Vivian. She looked concerned, her eyes scanning my face for any sign of distress. I couldn't help but wonder if she knew something I didn't."Hey, Vivian," I said, my voice wavering slightly. "Is everything okay?"Vivian's brows furrowed as she studied me, concern evident in her expression. "Eliana, I haven't seen Mr

    Chapter Fifty-FiveEliana's Pov We got down in front of our first restaurant of the day, its inviting facade adorned with vibrant Hawaiian decor. The tantalizing aroma of grilled seafood and exotic spices wafted through the air, making my mouth water with anticipation."Okay, something smells so good, and I need to try it," I said, stepping out of the car. Lottie stepped after me and stood by my side, leading me into the restaurant.She glanced at me, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Are you ready to taste what they call, pupu platter?""I've never heard of it before," I said as the staff led us to a table overlooking the sparkling ocean, the gentle sound of waves coupled with the soft melody of musical instruments providing a soothing backdrop to the overall experience. "Well," Lottie sat in the chair opposite mine, "We need to fix that. Excuse me?" She signalled to a waiter, who promptly approached our table with a friendly smile."Good evening, ladies.

    After many flavours and brain freeze, we returned to the beach, and the yacht floated elegantly on the water, majestically sailing through the glistening waves. The yacht was a luxurious sight to behold, it's sleek design and pristine white exterior reflecting the sunlight. We approached the yacht, and the crew warmly welcomed us on board."Welcome aboard, ladies," the captain greeted us with a friendly smile. "We have everything prepared for a delightful cruise along the beautiful Hawaiian coast.""Thank you." We expressed our gratitude to the captain and made our way to the deck of the yacht. The stunning view of the ocean stretched before us, captivating our senses. The sound of the waves lapping against the sides of the yacht created a soothing rhythm, and we gazed out into the open sea. The azure waters sparkled under the golden rays of the sun."Shall we proceed with the cruise?" The captain asked, waiting for our permission to commence the trip.I turned to Lottie, who had a

    Bella's Pov Alex smiled at me, his thumb cleaning off the lone tear that escaped my eye. "I said I love you, Bella."Say something! My brain screamed at me and I recovered from the shock. "Why?" I asked, whispering, afraid that the moment might end if I was too loud.He chuckled softly, "Why? You are perfect. Compassionate and beautiful. You light up a room with your presence. A perfect example of beauty and brains. I could go and on, but those wouldn't still explain why I have fallen in love with you.""But I'm impulsive and inconsiderate. We haven't known eachother for long…""You aren't impulsive and inconsiderate. You are passionate and driven. The things you see as faults, aren't faults at all. And we haven't known each other for long, but it feels like I've known you forever.""But, but…" I stammered but he placed a finger on my lips, shutting me up. "But nothing, Bella.

I immersed myself into my work, creating more content for the brands I worked with and spent the other days drinking. I didn't want to leave my home. I didn't want to stumble on Alex.That night felt like a bad dream. I hated myself for believing Antonia. Even Fiona didn't want me there.I should have maintained my pride. I should have walked away when the drinks poured on me. I should have never made that deal. Maybe, just maybe…I brushed that thought away, taking a gulp of my wine. I didn't want to feel anymore. I didn't want to regret anything anymore.Maybe I should have listened to Alex. Maybe I shouldn't have said those words. Maybe I shouldn't have let my lack of judgement and frustration coupled with jealousy get into my head.I hated Antonia. And seeing her wrapped around him with her lips on

I said with a smile as Antonia spoke about how hard it was to be related to a legend.She gasped, placing a hand on her chest, "What do you mean Alex?"I chuckled, playing with my dinner knife, "I know you have a plan to ruin things for Bella."Her eyes widened and she laughed, hard. "I knew there was a reason I liked you."I chuckled, "I see through snakes like you. Now, it would be wise if you stop whatever you are planning. "Bella came, her eyes emotionless as she saw Antonia giggle. She was going to take it the wrong way. But did she even care? Did she care enough to lose sweat over whatever I do? She was so driven by her career, I loved that about her. But she was willing to ruin what we had for something that was obviously a trap. She didn't care if after this, I would keep my distance far away from her.It didn't matter to her, all that mattered was this opportunity to meet her idol and become an ambassador for th

    Chapter 22Bella.The trip back home was the worst. Alex and I still didn't talk to each other. That continued even after we got home. We barely spoke when I wanted to go out, and I only went out once. The week was the worst as I planned on how I would style my dress for the wedding at the end of the week.I tried to distract myself by meeting up with Eliana after my brother rudely asked for me to help her get ready for their date. He looked suspiciously happy, and I was happy for him.She wasn't in a good stare because of what went on with Oliver, but by the time we partnered up to make her gorgeous, she forgot all about the incident and focused only on her date with Noah.Something was up with that relationship, one minute they look like they want to kill each other, then the next they look like they can't wait to be in the room together. Eliana always blushes when we talk about sex. One would think she was a virgin but knowing my brother, that was next to impossible. Unless the un

    Chapter 21Bella's Pov The dinner party started twenty minutes before we got there. Alex and I got to the hotel two hours before the time for the party to start, and that wasn't nearly enough time for me to get dressed.Alex was ready ages ago and actually offered to help inform me that I wasn't going to take much time,but I explained to him that I had to be fashionably late or I wouldn't be taken seriously. He decided to just leave the room since he was feeling restless. I wore a sparkly deep blue mermaid sequins dress with a high slit. It was off the shoulder, my cleavage evident but not spilling. I made my hair into waves and swept it to a side, then wore my jewellery which consisted of dangling earrings, rings and a little bracelet. Wore my silver heels and after doing my soft yet fierce make up, I was ready to go.I walked in front of the large mirror, a smile on my face as I checked myself out. I twirled in the mirror. The door opened and Alex stepped in, clad in his muscle

I let out a silent sigh as I wore my night wear and crawled under the covers.Looking at his back, I couldn't judge if he was asleep or not. I tapped on his shoulder, "Alex?" No reply. I tapped him again and I felt him grab my arm."Wha…" I didn't have time to process what was happening as he pulled me into his arms."Alex, you could have told me you wanted to cuddle." I giggled, laying in his chest.He scoffed, "I don't want to cuddle. I just want to steal your warmth.""Deceive yourself all you want, but I know you are obsessed with me." I tapped his nose and he rolled his eyes."Whatever makes you sleep, butterfly." He muttered into my ear and we fell into a deep silence.A lot was going through my mind. What are we doing ? Why did he feel offended when I said what I said about him?Was I wrong? Was it just my fear talking? What if I was getting

    Chapter 19 Bella’s Pov It was seven o'clock, and I was dressed and adorned for our first shoot. Alex sat beside me in our car as we trailed behind Pearl's crew closely to the venue. I felt a lot more confident, like the real Bella people saw. Beautiful, fierce, unbreakable. All thanks to the one man I never knew could make me feel so beautiful, so seen. I blushed as I remembered events that happened earlier today in the dressing room while I was getting ready, his head between my legs as he handed his daily meal. He ate pussy better and more passionately than anyone I’ve ever met. And while I wobbled out of the dressing room to show the crew my look, he whispered assumingly dirty words to me like, “I so want to fuck you with that dress bunched around your waist.” Somehow, he managed to make that statement sweet by adding how beautiful I looked after saying that. And I felt beautiful, not just because he said so. He showed it, he made me love every one of my insecurities by mentio

I couldn’t meet Laura personally but I met her assistant, who led us to the hotel where they already booked a room for us. It was a majestic five-star hotel to my taste, crawling with rich Arab men and beautiful women.Even Alex was impressed about this fact after criticizing the kind of plane ticket they bought for us, hence why we had to go on his private jet instead.The room was just how we wished it could be. It was a suite adorned with luxurious furnishings and breathtaking views of the city skyline.We settled in the suite after a brief arrangement to meet early tomorrow morning for our shoot. We had the whole day to rest.Alex was already in the suite when I walked in with a towel on his waist and water dripping down his chest.“Hey,” he greeted, taking my attention off his chest and to the teasing smirk on his face as he caught me checking him out. “I could pose for a picture if you like,” h
