★★★ “As I had predicted. Hah!" With a disappointed shake of her head, she let out a false laugh. "However, I believe that as long as Sam is with me, my well-being will not be your worry unless people are desperate enough to assassinate me," Monica replied, tears welling up in her eyes, believing she had been unlucky in receiving love from those she cared about. William, who was enraged, felt an overwhelming sense in his heart as a result of Monica's voice, sensing that Monica was upset. "How come you're not looking at me?" William stated, holding the palpation because a deep dark nook in his heart desired to glimpse her eyes. Monica sharply turned her head met William's eyes and said, “Look, I understand that we are married for a reason and that I have come to terms with everything about you, but I also want to enjoy my life, therefore I don't want to explain anything to you," Monica murmured, fixing her gaze on William's face. She could sense a hint of worry there, but she was n
★★★William stood motionless with Monica beside him, who was skeptical about what he declared about holding hands being the theme of the party. This provoked the explanation why she had not yet been able to determine for herself whether to hold William's hand or not because he was completely unreliable and had erratic mood swings.Sam was watching them from a distance and noticed something strange about their body language—they appeared to be waiting for something while standing at the pub's door. They did not speak to one another at first during the entire trip to this place, it appeared that they were silently fighting, with a single instance of the boss's stare, who couldn't take his attention away from Miss Monica for even a second. "Strange! Being single for so many years, I'm having difficulty understanding what these people are doing," Sam mumbled under his breath before pulling out a cigarette from the packet and holding it to his lips.“Do you like to stand here in this
★★★ “It's good to have you back, Mr. William. We have made numerous attempts to get in touch with you, but you know your people! Humph! They always rejected us." With a charming smile on her face, the woman addressed William. Even though she anticipated receiving no attention from William, she made an effort to find out what was going on between the unidentified woman and William. Based on her clothes, the girl surmised that Monica could be William's secretary. “Since my time has been reserved for a crucial topic, they felt there was no reason why you needed to see me. As a result, I received no notification about you.” Not only did William's response startle the woman, but it also made Monica turn to look at him in astonishment. There were no limits to this man's sarcasm. He could easily offend someone with his remarks. “I concur with you, hehe." The woman laughed awkwardly and regretfully turned to look at her boyfriend who had advised her not to talk to William or approach hi
★★★“Hello to all of you. I apologize for being a little late; I had some business to attend to."Katherine waved to the people who had been her college pals, but she didn't feel the need to socialize with them at the moment because not everyone had the same level of success as Brian and William.“Brian, you astounded me," Katherine chimed as she approached Brian, who placed the glass on a circular table, some of the liquor spilling from the corners of his mouth given that he had no idea how Katherine had arrived at the party, especially since he had not invited her.Katherine wore a tight-fitted black knee-length dress with no sleeves. Apart from this, the courageous move that Katherine showed was that she did not come wearing anything warm in such cold weather.“It surprises me to see you here, Katherine," Brian stated as he gave her a hug. He had no choice but to greet Katherine, though he was a little perplexed as to how she found out. He would not have objected if William ha
★★★ “Would you mind if I posed a quick inquiry to you? You decide whether or not you feel comfortable responding to it,” Monica spoke tentatively because she was married to William and was conscious that asking anything personal about him from his best friend would turn out bad for their relationship, but William was unwilling to talk about his past, which started affecting her now. “Yes, it won't bother me. Go ahead!" Brian said, his eyes wide and inquisitive as he studied Monica's face intently, oblivious that William was firing daggers at him with his eyes. “How strong was his bond with Katherine? I am not apprised of this because he was unwilling to discuss his past," Monica demanded, catching a glimpse of William, who was staring in her direction with drinks in his hand. That gaze was quite threatening to her as if he was warning her. “I honestly have no idea how strong their relationship was,” Brian responded, bringing his eyebrows together in a contemplative manner, “I've
★★★The game began with Katherine's word, and everyone else eagerly participated, except Monica, Brian, and, of course, William. Monica got a message at the time. The moment she opened the message, she spotted Jessica, Cornell, and Lucas in the kitchen preparing the cake. Lucas was smiling in Liam's arms, while mother and son were covered in flour since Cornell blew flour in his mother's face and Jessica poured flour on Cornell's head.They were laughing, baking, and most importantly, they were having a great time. The feeling inside her was like leaving here and returning to South Hampton to be a part of this bliss.'Huh!' A bitter chuckle left, remembering that when she was there, her thoughts and emotions were miserable because they kept thinking of Ben. Now that she got the opportunity to stay with him, she felt depressed and alone.The video made her grin, and she reacted with a love sign on that video, her eyes misty with tears.“Well, well, Well! Now it is time for Miss Mo
★★★The scent of alcohol lingered with William's breath as her lips slowly sucked his lips. Even though she was soft and sensual, like a flower teasing his skin, she was still enticing enough to make him want more. Her lips sucked on his lips tenderly while her hips rode on his lap, her hands on the back of his neck as if she could not accept him parting ways. William devoured her beauty with his eyes open, despite his mind racing from her passionate kissing. His mind was so stuck on wanting to feel the kiss more that he was unable to act on his urge to do anything.Her body felt soft, as if a cushion was resting against him, and his hand automatically curled around her waist, anchoring her, at the same time the kiss escalated.Additionally, this kiss was the most shocking discovery to the guests sitting there, as well as Katherine, who was dumbfounded that Monica was kissing William in the presence of everyone while William continued to remain motionless. He should have flung Moni
★★★ "There is no need for an introduction because I feel you will dislike meeting us after today." With a chuckle, one of the men stated, nonetheless, it was scary enough to make one's skin crawl. Monica was well aware that they were up to no good, and by continuing to converse, she was waiting for someone to appear. “Please let me leave; I don't suppose you want to argue with my husband, who is outside," Monica cautioned, clutching the bag next to the tap behind her, with her eyes on the goons, while waiting for someone to emerge. She was unable to run because one of them was standing near the door. “We know who your spouse is, but I doubt he will come this far to help you," the same man said as he approached Monica, who gently opened the zip of her purse and felt her phone in her palm. Despite being aware of her phone, she was not sure she could reach someone without looking at her phone. "Are you hunting for money by kidnapping me?" Monica continued her conversation, hoping th
