Margaux tapped the steering wheel with her fingers. The car was already parked in front of Liana’s hotel. She even got angry at Daisy for choosing that place earlier, but after her cousin explained that it was the safest place to meet with the person hiding from the authorities, her anger subsided a little. But still she was annoyed. She had been sitting there inside her unmoving car for five minutes already but she felt like stepping out of it was hard. She suddenly questioned herself what she was doing there as she didn’t know what came up to her and just agreed with her cousin’s ridiculous idea. ‘Did Daisy learn some voodoo tricks?’ she asked herself. That woman was seriously good at manipulating people to do what she wanted and it was a little terrifying as she thought about it now. She said it before that Daisy can make a living for it and she had just proved it to her at that moment. Letting out an exasperated sigh, she finally unlocked the door and was about to open it.
Margaux looked at him incredulously. But then she quickly recovered and sneered. “So bold of you to say such a thing when you did not think about that and never considered what I will feel when you decided to go along with Daisy and Leila,” she muttered coldly. Her eyes narrowed when she saw him looking very surprised. “Why are you surprised?” she queried. Her tone was condescending.Hendrix swallowed hard as he could feel her contempt. He wanted to explain that he did not mean what he said, but no words were coming out of his mouth. Margaux’s eyes turned into a slit as she waited for his response. But his silence was killing her and testing her patience.“Did you become mute now?” she scoffed. All she wanted was his explanation. Since she was there, mind as well as listen to his side of the story to decide whether to punish him or not. Hendrix shook his head. “No..”“No?” her eyebrows raised. She was surprised that she was a little calm at that moment. As though she had all
She had no idea since when did she became comfortable with him. Because as far as she knew, her body immediately reacted violently whenever he touched her, even just the tip of her hair. But that moment seemed different. It was weird that even though her body froze, it was only because she was surprised at the sudden touch. “Are you two finally reconciled?” Leila inquired with her eyes not leaving his hand securely holding her tiny waist. “This can’t be..” she then mumbled while shaking her head profusely. Margaux wanted to remove his hand but upon seeing the woman’s reaction, she decided against it and just kept her arms folded and unmoving. “Let’s go,” Hendrix suddenly whispered to her ears. She was expecting the guy to tell her off like what he did to Liana before, but it didn’t come and instead, she found herself being dragged by him towards the elevator. “Where are you taking me?” she hissed as she struggled to get inside the lift. “Let me go!” she exclaimed, not caring i
Hendrix vehemently shook his head. “Look. She just offered this place to me as an apology. She never mentioned that this is her penthouse..” he quickly explained. Margaux folded her arms across her chest and narrowed her eyes on him. “Do you think I will believe you?” she hissed. Hendrix averted his gaze and quickly mumbled, “Of course you won’t. You already said many times that you don’t trust me,” then he chuckled. Stunned, her eyes went round as she gawked at him in disbelief. She was not expecting him to say that at all which made her chest tightened. All of a sudden, she wanted to deny it and tell him it was just a lie. But fortunately, she quickly realized that her heart was softening again just because of his reverse response. Clicking her tongue, she looked away. “That’s right! Glad that you know. We have nothing to talk about anymore then,” she said then turned her back on him. She thought he would stop her again, but she was wrong. Hendrix did not even mutter a word u
Margaux woke up feeling sore all over. She groaned as she moved her body only to freeze when she realized she was not in her room. Her eyes instantly went wide then as she was horrified when memories from last night flashes back in her mind so vividly. “No!” she quickly sprang up on the bed as she screamed in horror. However, her body shivered and realized that she was not wearing anything under the blanket that fell on her lap. Her heart was going to explode anytime soon from pumping so hard and she wanted to faint by the thought that she was no longer pure. Shaking her head profusely, she covered herself again with the blanket and looked around. A bitter taste then left her mouth as she remembered that the place was Liana’s. She could not accept it. Out of many places she could lose her v card.. But her thoughts were quickly cut off when she felt a movement next to her. She froze again.Her body became rigid and she couldn’t even lift a finger. Her heart was palpitating and s
Margaux quickly pushed him away with all her strength. She then got up and ran to the bathroom without bothering to cover her body. She heard Hendrix called her name but she immediately locked herself inside the bathroom.Her heart was beating wildly while she was chasing her breath as if ran a marathon. Placing her palm on her chest, she shut her eyes as she leaned her back on the door.“I need to get out of here,” she mumbled. Then she opened her eyes and frowned, “But how?”She looked at herself in the full mirror inside the bathroom and was shocked to see her reflection. She was fully naked and her neck and chest were so red as though she was having an allergic reaction. Her lips were swollen too and her cheeks were flushed despite not having any make up. Her hair was everywhere and one thing she could desire herself was. . . horrible. Anger surged within her. Aside from the sore body, her whole appearance was terrible and she would never forgive Hendrix for doing that to her.
“Aren’t you satisfied yet?” he added.He was in a serious dilemma there because her dress was too tiny for her body and her skin was very exposed especially on the chest part that it looked like she could not breathe anymore. The heat in his body was slowly consuming him and he was afraid he might do something bad to her which made her even more angry than she was at the moment. “You are delusional!” Margaux hissed at him. His thick eyebrows raised as he stared at her in surprise and amusement. Tilting his head, the corner of his lips lifted upward as his eyes went down on her exposed cleavage. “I don’t know how you can say that but my view here is suggesting something..” he said with a smirk. Margaux’s eyes went round. She quickly straightened on her seat and covered her chest with her hands. “Pervert!” she then glowered at him. Looking away, he scoffed. “I’m not”“You are!” she argued. His thick brows deeply furrowed as he returned his gaze back on her. He did not say anythi
“Why would I do that?” Margaux scowled at Hendrix. It was not what she was expecting him to say and honestly, she was a little disappointed but she did her best to not show it on her face. “Why won’t you?” Hendrix retorted. “Are you still considering marrying him after everything that happened?” he asked in return. “What exactly happened?” she folded her arms and shook her head innocently. “If you meant about last night, it’s pretty normal to have a one night stand. I’m still technically single..” she shrugged it off. She made it seem like it was nothing serious but deep inside she was disgusted with her own words. “One night stand?!” Hendrix exclaimed hysterically. “We literally did it more than once and it was just not one night because we repeated it earlier. That is not a one night stand at all!” he retaliated. To say she was shocked by his reaction was understatement. His face was so red and looked so furious while his brown eyes were darkly shooting daggers at her. Her lip
