CHAPTER 101

***Bethany’s Pov***Five years later… I worked so hard at Mr. Navarro’s logistic company and because of my hard work and the willingness to learn everything about the business, I got an increase in salary. After one year of working with them, I realized that the sales department could help me in achieving my goal. Their schedules were flexible. As long as I could meet the required sales quota, I could clock out anytime, so I talked with my boss about it.Initially, I was nervous to discuss it with him, but I was glad I did because he agreed. In fact, he offered another incentive for the sales team, whoever wanted to pursue a degree related to the job, he would offer a subsidy for our tuition on top of the sales commission. Of course, I couldn’t just enroll immediately without testing the waters.For three months, I worked under the best sales representative as his assistant, and he was so helpful in teaching me. During my second month, I hit the quota for the first time, and I was s

CHAPTER 102

***Bethany’s Pov***I could not believe I had returned to Claybourne, a community with five-star hotels, luxury apartments, and condominiums, after five years. Claybourne has everything including the man who broke my heart again and again. I heard from Dale that Jacob had no choice but to marry his ex-wife’s sister, as it was customary to the other clan, or Dark Furs would face extinction. After five years, Claybourne had a lot of improvements, but it also enhanced its existing assets, especially the beaches with fine white sands.Claybourne, which was founded on the outskirts of a bustling neighborhood, was a prime example of a contemporary metropolis. In addition to its attractiveness, the city was shaped by the backdrop of an ever-clear sky. Due to the fact that the vast majority of buildings have been constructed with numerous glass and light features to mimic the aesthetics of the blue sky. Claybourne has received a great deal of attention due to its excellent recreational facili

CHAPTER 103

***Bethany’s Pov***He walked with me until we reached the boardwalk, at which point he said his final goodbyes. “Would you like to accompany me to the house?”“Miss, he dislikes crowds. Have a fantastic time!” He said and returned to his sailboat. He signaled with a hand gesture that he was only a phone call away by waving his hand at me from the upper deck.I gave him a friendly smile as I began my stroll on the boardwalk. If I had known, I would not have worn high-heeled shoes on a private island. The long trek had left me with painful blisters, and I desired to sit down immediately. A few minutes later, I was standing in front of his island residence, and I couldn’t help but be amazed.The exterior of the bungalow appeared magnificent. It was constructed with red bricks and mahogany-colored wooden ornamentation. Small, half-rounded windows illuminate the home and give it an asymmetrical, contemporary appearance. The structure was constructed in an L shape.The expansion continued

CHAPTER 104

***Bethany’s Pov***“Can you imagine how excited I was when I learned that you scheduled a meeting with me?” he asked, his adorable grin bothering him!I told him, “At least one of us was excited.”“Bethany, where have you been? I've been searching for you all these years.”“Really? Wow, that is incredible. Do you believe you can deceive me again?”He replied, “I'm not trying to trick you,” and I scoffed at his response.“If you say so,” was my response.“Don't be arrogant, Miss Middleton. Come and have breakfast with me.”“Thank you, sir, but I'm already satisfied.” I declined his invitation to share a meal.“Shouldn't you make an effort to treat me with courtesy?” Jacob inquired with constricted pupils.“I don’t think I can discuss business with you, Jacob, so I’d rather just go home. My boss could just send another representative,” I told himAgain, he issued his ultimatum: “Join me for breakfast, or you'll regret it.”I was compelled to follow him to the kitchen, despite the fact

CHAPTER 105

***Bethany’s Pov***My smile began to fade as soon as I realized that we would be alone in his room. His response was, “I don't think it's a good idea.”“Why? Are you concerned that I might behave improperly with you?”“Yes,” I humbly admitted.“For instance, kissing you on the lips? Or would you like me to put you in my bed?” I scowled at him after he made some obscene suggestions because I believed he was a jerk.My current thoughts were completely out of the ordinary. I had no choice but to sneak up behind him and photograph him as he opened the door to his bedroom. Then, I regarded the photograph for a moment and exhaled deeply.“Are you not entering?” As soon as he noticed I was still standing outside his door, he inquired.I replied, “Wait,” and entered his den slowly. Even though his appearance made me feel uneasy, I had no choice but to tolerate him! But it would be nice if he wasn't so ridiculously attractive! His room, along with the rest of the house, was decorated in a con

CHAPTER 106

***Bethany’s POV***When he mentioned starting a family, it left me with a negative impression. “Do you believe you're capable of starting a family?” My voice likely trembled when I inquired about his plans to start a family.“Above and beyond capable,” he responded with assurance.“Then, I recommend that you impregnate your wife as soon as possible,” I suggested.In response to the question, he responded, “No, I am going to file for divorce soon. I already have someone in mind who is suitable to bear me children.”I was intrigued by the woman, but I refrained from asking for more information. A few minutes later, I was unable to refrain from asking. I was extremely curious about the woman he was talking about. “Would you mind revealing whether she is an heiress or an alpha’s daughter?” He responded with a chuckle to my inquiry.“For the time being, it will remain a mystery,” he replied.When he refused to disclose any information about his relationship, I could finally exhale a sigh

CHAPTER 107

***Bethany’s Pov***I declined to answer his question by shaking my head. “I'm not sure what's wrong with you, but I have no reason to remain here. I’m sorry for wasting your time, Jacob,” I bid my ex-boyfriend farewell and returned to the living room, where I had left my bag.On my way out, I attempted to dial the boatman’s number but was unsuccessful. Multiple attempts were made, but it appeared that he had turned off his phone. I bit the inside of my lower lip as I pondered why he changed his phone after I made it clear that I needed to return to the mainland after the interview.“Is there something amiss?”I responded to Jacob's inquiry, “I'm unable to contact him,” after being startled by his voice from behind me.When he inquired “Who?” A crease appeared on his forehead.“The boatman,” I answered. “Does he have any other means of communication besides his phone?”Jacob responded, “I'm sorry, but all he has is his phone. What will you do if you are unable to contact him today?”“

CHAPTER 108

***Bethany’s Pov***I seized one of the chairs, sat down, and vehemently refuted his claim. My patience was tested by Jacob's presence, and I feared that the mask I was wearing would fall off. From time to time, I would glance at him over my shoulder, and he seemed to be oblivious about it.“Eat slowly and savor the food,” he advised me.I pretended to be hungry in order to get away from him as quickly as possible. Although I disliked the superficial nature of his concern for my well-being, I could not help but feel my heart flutter whenever he was so close to me. When I looked up to see him, I observed that he was staring at me, so I raised my eyebrows in response.He remarked, “Bethany, you look incredible tonight.”When he attempted to flatter me with flowery language, I simply rolled my eyes. As if it would make my stomach rumble with pleasure! Did he believe I would once again fall for his words? When I was at a loss for words to put him in his place, I joked, “Stop staring at me

CHAPTER 109

***Bethany’s Pov***The boatman waited on the boardwalk, and his face darkened when he saw my companion. He scowled at Jacob, then at me, and he remarked, “You must be close to him since he accompanied you up to this point.”Liam nodded in agreement as I stated, “No, but when I told him you were coming here, he insisted on going back to the mainland with me.” For a moment, he furrowed his brows, and then I used the opportunity to approach him when Jacob wasn’t watching and whispered something into his ear. “However, I would appreciate it if you did not allow him to board the boat.” He chuckled. Jacob frowned upon hearing his laughter, which was masked by the waves.“I like you. I mean, I like your grit.”I winked at him and said, “I don't mind having a hot friend.”As I preferred conversing with the boatman, Jacob appeared out of place aboard the magnificent boat. Because he has a good sense of humor, I liked his corny jokes. Jacob attempted to separate me from his friend, but the boa

CHAPTER 110

***Bethany’s Pov***I was so exhausted that all I wanted to do was sleep. Slowly approaching my bed, I quickly turned off all of the lights. I enjoyed sleeping in the dark because it gave me peace of mind that no one was watching me. Jillian was already snoring when I arrived earlier, and I had to shower first before I could touch her.I was lying in my bed, staring at the ceiling, when I considered calling Jacob but decided against it because it wouldn't make a difference. In my dream, however, I was visited by the man with whom I fell in love five years ago. No, it was a nightmare from which I awoke drenched in sweat!I observed that it was only four o'clock in the morning after glancing at the clock. My hands went to my eyes and rubbed them as if there were sands inside, and I walked towards the bathroom to wash my face while squinting.After washing my face, I decided to check my phone. Actually, I usually read the latest news or happenings on my phone, and the headlines caused my
