Driving past the bright, colourful city lights Ethan seethed with both rage and frustration. The fact that she had not denied his accusations made him feel even shittier than he previously had. Even after all he had done for her she still did not seem to fully trust him and though he admit that she had no real reason to it still hurt his pride that she thought lesser of him."Damn it!"He gruntled out through clenched teeth slamming his fist against the steering wheel. He had no clue where it was that he was driving to but he did not care as long as he could get away from the mansion. Noticing the bright golden lights of a nearby hotel he decided to make that his destination. Making a U-turn he changed lanes and made his way to the place.Parking outside at the foot of the staircase he got out handing his keys over to a valet who gave him a curious look. The man could not help but be amazed by the handsome stranger, his beauty was enough to even make those of the same gender give it

Carefully observing her opponents' reactions, Laurelyn carefully put one game piece on the standing board before her. Looking up from her stand she watched her foe throw one of their pieces in the centre of the table and a smirk sneakily made her way to her lips. Picking up the very same piece she placed it next to one identical to it and shouted in excitement, "I win! Huh, pay up perdenti!" The other ladies grumbled in protest. Annoyed they took out their purses and slammed a wad of cash down on the table. Satisfied and overjoyed Laurelyn snatched the paper money off the table, sitting back in her chair she began counting the money with a victorious smirk on display. "One of these days Laurelyn, you're going to slip and I am going to win" "Huh! Keep dreaming Agnes but until then I will be buying myself a brand-new Versace bag with your money" "Ugh!" Grumbled the other lady stomping out of the room. The rest followed after her all with frustration written all over their faces. "

Stepping out of his car Ethan looked up at his residence before making his way up the stairs and inside. Upon entering he could hear the loud chatter and laughter of ladies coming from the sitting room. Making his way there he stopped at the doorway upon hearing the most beautiful laugh he had ever heard.Peeking around the corner he could see Robin laughing hysterically with the other women in the room. She adorned a pink floral dress that clung to her bosom but was loosely fit on the bottom. A large smile spread over rosy pink lips with a delicate hand held up against her lips. Her index finger slightly touched those soft supple lips.A dark and ugly feeling oozed its way into his heart, painting it black and disgusting. It was unbeknownst to him exactly what that filthy feeling spreading in his chest was but he knew that standing there and watching Robin direct a smile at anyone other than him made this hideous feeling worse.He had never seen her smile that way towards him and he

LXXIV

Ever since her husband's return things between the two have been what could only be described as awkward. Though the man was no longer blatantly avoiding her anymore he also seemed a bit more distant than usual. He no longer teases her as he used to, does not have any small meaningless conversations like they used or incite any invitation to one of their passionate and steamy nights.Blankly stirring her tea with a hand carefully balancing her chin Robin stared off into space. Mabel watched her heave a sigh now and again, unable to sit there and watch her suffer like that anymore he pushed off against one of the steady beams holding up the parasol and made his way to her.Tapping her lightly on the shoulder she jumped in shock unexpecting the sudden physical contact. Mabel stood there also stunned by her reaction. Clearing his throat he collected himself before speaking up."Uhm, I noticed that you have been staring off into blank space lately. Why, what's going on?"He asked with fur

"Aaaand done"Typing the last key on her laptop Robin smiled in triumph happy that she was finished with her work for the day. Raising her hands in a stretch she released the tension in her muscles. Hearing her phone go off as a message entered she felt her heart drop a bit.She did not want to look at the sender or what the message read for if it was who she thought it was, then it would only bring her mood down. Sighing she reached for it before turning her phone upwards. She released a sigh of relief when she saw it was just from Mabel.Opening her phone to read what was written her eyes widened into saucers. Jumping up from her seat causing the chair to roll back behind her she hastily grabbed her handbag, keys and jacket before running out of the office to the elevator. In her haste, she failed to notice someone heading her way resulting in them bumping into one another.Falling to the ground she profusely apologised to her colleague whilst picking up her things from the ground a

Ever since getting locked in the room with Ethan their relationship changed for the better and though she hated to admit it, it was thanks to Mabel that the two could reconcile and work things out. Even though his method was a bit unorthodox. And now that she and Ethan were no longer avoiding each other or anything of the sort they were doing better with communicating things to each other. Things seemed to be going well and Robin was beginning to relax once again.If only that lasted.Looking down at her phone she reread the message over and over to make sure she did not misinterpret anything. Once satisfied that she truly was not mistaken with the words the text read she could feel her heart race and the palms of her hand become clammy as sweat procured. Noticing her vision turn blurry she crashed down on her chair to catch her breath. It was after ten o'clock in the morning on a weekend which meant she was alone in the office. She had wanted to come in on an off day to tie up some

Twirling the peas on her plate Robin sat in her chair with her elbow resting on the table and head leaning against her hand. She stared off into space with a blank look occasionally sighing here and there. Noticing her distressed state Ethan placed his utensil to the side and turned to her."Are you alright? You've been sighing an awful lot lately""Huh? Oh, yeah I'm okay"She blurted fixing her posture before reaching for her glass of wine. bringing it to her lips she took a small sip before placing the glass back down on the table. Ethan's eyes squinted in concern as he watched her chew the bottom of her lip. A habit of hers he had learned signified her nervousness."Are you sure you're okay?""Yes, of course. Why wouldn't I?""Well, cause you keep biting on your lower lip"hearing him say that she immediately stops her assault on her lip and looks down at her food like a kid caught with their hand in the cookie jar."And I know you only do that when you're nervous about something"

With the arrival of our food I thanked the waiter and looked down at my meal suddenly grown without an appetite. Damien on the other hand seemed famished as he placed his napkin neatly on his lap, picking up his fork and knife with elegance and poise he cut into his steak. "Are you going to eat or just stare at me the whole night" Embarrassed that she was caught starring Robin cleared her throat, reaching for her glass of wine she nearly downed the whole thing before growing serious again. "Are we going to get down to business yet or what?" "Have you tried the roasted asparagus? They're exquisite" "Yes, I know they are but can we talk about that later?" "How?" "What?" "How can you know they taste good when you have yet to try them?" Quirking an irritated brow she scoffed at the man. She was far from impressed with his constant avoidance in the subject of their meeting. Growing impatient Robin sat straight in her seat throwing one leg over the other she leered at him through he

Stumbling her way inside the house Robin held onto a table in the passageway for support. Hearing the commotion going on Ethan walked out of his office to see what was happening only to be appalled by the sight of his wife drunkenly stumbling along the corridor. "You seem like you could use some help"He worded out leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed. Her head whipped up at him and she broke into a wide smile."Oh, would you look at that? It's a handsome guy!"Quirking a questioning brow he watched in light amusement as Robin struggled to keep steady on her feet."You know you, you look really handsome.""Is that so?"Nodding her head with her eyes closed she let out a small hiccup. It took everything in him not to burst out in laughter. Smirking at her compromising situation Robin noticed the coy expression he had on."Wha-What are you laughing at?"She slurred. Shaking his head he shrugged his shoulders in answer but that only seemed to bother her more."You, you were

Stepping out of a silver Rolls-Royce Phantom Ethan buttoned up his suit jacket before holding a hand out for his wife to take. With her purse clutched to her side Robin took her husband's hand and made her way off the vehicle. Standing next to him she wrapped her arm around his. Dressed in an ivory slit dress she matched it with stud earrings and an ivory purse. Her husband was well dressed in a suit of the same colour with the cuffs being silver just like her earrings. The pair elegantly made their way up the red-carpeted stairs into the large mansion. Though Robin knew that the event was something that had to do with her husband's work she had no idea exactly what was the cause of it all. Ethan on the other hand was listening with anticipation as he had been waiting for this day for the longest time. And though he knew coming to the home of McGuire was the same as entering enemy territory he was prepared for anything. Subtle music could be heard as the two entered the home a
