34. Party with the Enemy
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Connor and I walked into the party after a few hours. I was still in a daze from earlier. It took me forever to get out of bed. Connor had to drag me out.
"Do I look okay?" I asked him. I needed to look hot in order to show Miranda that she doesn't stand a chance.
"Beautiful," Connor smiled.
There weren't too many people in the apartment. I did recognize a few people from high school and stopped to talk to them. I didn't see the host, Miranda, anywhere.
"She is upstairs, finishing up something," Sally, who used to be in my math class said. She narrowed her eyes at me. "So you and Connor, huh? I'm not surprised," she grinned.
Why do people keep saying it's not shocking? It was shockin

My stomach twisted into a knot. I was hoping this wouldn't happen so soon."What happened?" I asked, still hoping I was wrong about everything."I came home early from work and found Jessica in bed..." Ansel sighed. "With another man."I gasped. This was worse than I thought. I thought Ansel simply found out about it. But seeing it in his own eyes...must've been so horrible."Ansel, I'm so sorry!" I cried."We just got married," Ansel shook his head. "It hasn't even been a month yet." His face was red. His eyes were burning with rage and despair."I'm so sorry, bro," Connor looked at him with sympathy.

Oh, you've got to be shitting me."What are you doing here?" I tried to hide my frustration, but my voice came out hoarse and irritable."I just got a job at this company! Isn't this great?" she chirped.I'm thinking about many words in my head, and 'great' isn't one of them."Now we can spend more time together and catch up," she looked at Connor and smiled flirtatiously.Connor shifted uncomfortably and cleared his throat. "Ah, Miranda. I'm a very busy man. I'm sure we'll be too focused on work to catch up," he said sternly."Yes. This is a place of work, not a house party," I narrowed my eyes so hard that they looked like a slit.
Trapped by the Badboy Billionaire 37. Birthday Reminder
Every year on the week of my birthday, my parents treated me to a spa day because that's all I ever wanted. I love being pampered. This year, I was looking forward to it even more. After the whole affair thing happened to Ansel, he had been a depressed mess. None of us could talk to him without him bringing it up, and it was stressing me out. I needed a day to myself and not think about all the drama.I arrived at the spa early. I was looking forward to a relaxing massage and breathe in some aromatic oil to relax my nerves. It was going to be great.Until it wasn't."Your appointment has been canceled," the front desk lady with short hair said."What do you mean? I made the appointment months ago," I tried not to sound too annoyed.

I looked at Miranda and then at Connor. I could only imagine how unpleasant my facial expression must be. Connor, on the other hand, had no clue."Thank you, Miranda. I'll be ready tomorrow," he said."Anything else I can do for you?" Miranda was all smiles. My insides burned."That'll be all," Connor dismissed her. He turned to me after she left. He finally noticed the bitter look on my face and furrowed his eyebrows. "What's wrong?" he asked."What's wrong? Why is the flirty Mctitty going on a trip with you?" I snapped.Connor blinked twice as if to try and register the nickname I gave her. "What?" he asked."Your fangirl Mindy. W

I booked the first flight I could find. It was already mid-afternoon, so that means they were already settled in their hotel rooms. But no matter, I'm coming for you, Miranda!I didn't arrive in San Diego until after 5 pm. I was exhausted, but I decided to stay up after I reached the hotel. I booked a room at the same place Connor was staying at. How do I know where he was staying, you ask? He told me. Duh.If he was planning on cheating on me, it was a dumb move to tell me about his whereabouts, don't you agree?I wondered how mad he would be when he sees me. What if Ansel was right? What if I screwed up everything we built together so far? I was worried for a moment, but I came too far to back down now.I went to my room, took a nic

Miranda and I stared at each other from across the table. It was a quiet battle while Connor chewed on his steak, completely oblivious to everything that was happening around him. I could tell she was not happy to see me. Did I ruin her plans of seduction by showing up unannounced? Poor baby."So you just showed up without letting Connor know?" Miranda asked. Her smile looked faker than Kim K's ass."Yes, Miranda. I did. It's what they call a surprise," I bit back with sarcasm."I think it'd be best if you call in the future."Excuse me? Who does she think she is? I tried not to snap, but my jaw tightened. I felt Connor's hand on mine under the table. He gave me a warning look and squeezed my hand as if to tell me not to get angry.

"I am staying in your room in case that hoebag comes back to rape you," I declared.Miranda seemed like a total psycho. What kind of woman tries to sneak into a man's room in an attempt to steal someone's fiancé?Connor chuckled and pulled me to his lap. "I think I'm strong enough to push her off.""I am still staying.""Good, then I can touch you all night," He started to place small kisses all over my neck and chest."No, you're not. You're going to sleep because you have to wake up early for the conference," I frowned."But...I'm hard," Connor placed my hand between his legs and smirked."NO! Go to sleep. You jerk," I giggled."Fine, can I hold you then?" he smiled.I nodded, then buried my face in his chest. He smelled like soap. He must've taken a shower right before he went to bed.The next day, I woke in an empty bed. He must've gone to the conference early in the morning. I wonder how awkward it was

A week went by, and I didn't have the chance to speak to Ansel properly after that day. It wasn't that I didn't want to. I was too preoccupied with work to deal with drama. I saw him at the office as he finally got it together and decided to show up for work. But something about him had changed. He wasn't the same. He used to be warm and friendly. Now he had a certain cold aura that chilled my bones. I didn't realize Jessica's betrayal would destroy him this much.I should talk to him more, I decided.Connor hired another secretary within a week since many people were seeking an opportunity. I didn't run into Miranda in the apartment either. She must be hiding from me. I wouldn't show my face either if I were her.I fell into my routine. Connor was busy all week, so I didn't get to see

"YOU DID WHAT?" Yup, just like I thought. My mom turned from 'My fair lady' to fire-breathing dragon after telling her about mine and Connor's spontaneous wedding. It was Sunday afternoon. Connor and I called everyone to deliver our news. His father couldn't make it as he was out of town. "We got married?" as if I phrase it like a question, it'd sound less ridiculous. "Without telling us? We would've love to be there for you. I would've flown there instantly," my dad looked pained, and I felt terrible. "We're sorry, Ivan and Ariel. We did it in a moment of passion," Connor tried to diffuse the situation. "My husband is a passionate guy," I said and giggled as the words 'my husband' sounded unreal and ridiculous in my own ears. "Oh, you think it's funny, young lady? You just broke your poor mother's heart," my mom wiped a tear and stormed out. "Mom!" I called after her, but she was already gone to the other room.

My wedding day.I never thought it would come so soon, and I never imagine it'd be like this. Let's go back and elaborate.Connor and I decided to take a mini-vacation to the Miami beach since none of us had the time to spend time with each other for a whole month. Last time we saw each other was when we had that spontaneous dinner with Ansel.You know, the one where Ansel got to shower with an alcoholic beverage and his pride turned into dust?I put on a cute floral bikini and got ready for the day. I've been looking forward to relaxing."Are you ready?" Connor came out of the bathroom and asked. He had changed into his swim shorts and didn't put on a shirt."Mhm," I mumbled and stared at his chest. I have a problem for sure. "Would you mind making these tighter?" I pointed at my bikini strings.Connor moved closer and untied the strings but paused before tying them back. He let them fall off his fingers. I gasped and q

"Ahem!"All three of them looked at me as I cleared my throat. Ansel frowned, and Connor smirked."Having fun?" I narrowed my eyes at Connor. I sat next to the empty chair next to him."Oh yes, have you met the lovely Jules?" Connor smiled slyly. I'm gonna kick his ass."Good, you're here too. Take your man away from me," Ansel said. His ears were flushed."Her man?" Jules was confused."Oh yes. Let me introduce you to my fiance, Anya," Connor grabbed my chair and dragged it closer to him."You are engaged?" Jules asked."That's what I've been trying to tell you," Ansel said irritably."Aww, that's too bad," Jules pouted, not even trying to hide her disappointment.Excuse me. What am I, Chopped liver?"Well, you two can keep each other company. I'm heading out. You coming, Jules?" Ansel looked at her.Oh no, that would defeat the purpose of me coming here."Don't leave. We need to talk," I sai

Connor looked at me with irritation and shook his head in disapproval as I pushed him toward Ansel."You so owe me for this," he announced, then walked over to them with confidence.I followed him and sat down at the other side of the bar so I could hear them. A big guy sat between us, making me almost invisible. Besides, Ansel was too busy flirting with the girl to notice me."Hey beautiful..." the guy next to me started."Shh...I'm trying to spy on my fiancé," I sneered. He quickly turned back to his drink.Connor had already turned his charm on. He casually walked behind Ansel and put his arm around him. And judging from Ansel's wide eyes and big scowl, he wasn't pleased to see him."Whoa, I didn't know you were coming here!" Connor exclaimed and patted Ansel on the back."What are you doing here? Where is Anya?" Ansel asked."Anya? Why would she be here?" Connor acted obliviously."Because she is your fia..."
