All Chapters of The Sweetest Temptation : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

When Reese pulled the front door open, Lucy was standing there, a dark look saturating her features. "Why did you do that?" Lucy asked angrily. "So you were watching?" Reese said as she walked past her. "Yes. I was." She said as she trailed behind Reese. "Why did you reject him like that? You didn’t even give him time.""I told you before I went on the date. I don’t feel anything for him, and I decided to tell him the truth before his hopes get raised too high." Reese explained. "How would you feel something for him when you wouldn’t open up your heart?" Lucy retorted. "Lucy!" Reese exclaimed. "This is also very hard for me. I tried to, but when I did, guess what? All I could think about was Axel. I fucking tried!”"You didn’t try enough!" Lucy exclaimed. "If you really wanted to try, you wouldn’t have rejected him yet. You would have given yourself time to groom the love.""Lucy, when he kissed me, do you know how I felt? Disgusted!" Reese yelled. "It shouldn’t be that wa

Axel thought about reese and he wanted to see her, he wanted to hear her voice, he picked up his phone and dialled her number.“Please pick up.” he muttered as he waited for her to pick the phone, but he was directed to her voice mail. His stomach sank when he remembered what the bartender had told him about the two men who harassed her at the bar. He had to do something about it, he thought. He was at the bar now, standing. He had a hunch they would be here; he knew from what the bartender had told him that they were predators, and one thing you could count on predators to do was be at their hunting grounds.He looked around to see a tall, blonde man with a hefty build and his short friend with the black biker jacket. He bet they had matching tattoos, and just the thought of that made him smile. He saw them seated at the edge of the bar; they both looked a bit tipsy but not too drunk. Axel knew how to pick a fight; it wasn't something new to him. He walked over to their table and

Later that evening, she was done with the scheduling and she was ready to go home. It was past the closing hour and her boss, Mr. Anderson, was not back yet.She was about to call him when her office phone rang. "Hello," she said, holding the receiver to her ear.“You can go home and continue tomorrow. Sorry that I didn’t inform you earlier. Right now, I am in Spain and would be back tomorrow.” He said from the other end of the phone. “Oh.” She gasped, shocked that he wasn't even in the country. “I have already finished sorting and profiling the guests for the occasion.”“Okay, then you can take it to my house and drop it off. I will tell my driver to take you and then drop you off at your house. He will be waiting for you in front of the office building. When you get to my house, ask for directions, and drop it off in my study. Close the office afterwards.” He said, and the line was cold again; he was gone.Phew! She sighed.She packed the files and made her way to the elevator, pr

Reese received a call from Alex, and he asked them to meet up for a drink at a bar, and she didn’t reject his offer. She decided to go with Lucy’s advice. At first, she wondered where he got her contact from, but then again, he is her boss’s son, so she needn’t wonder where he got it from. They decided to meet up at a particular bar. When Reese got to the bar, Alex was already seated on one of the stools by the bar counter. "Hey, beautiful," he said when she got to where he was sitting. "I am glad you made it.""How are you?" She asked as she sat on the stool beside him."I am fine." He said it with a smile curling on his lips. "How are you?""I am fine also." She said. "Let the party begin." He said. "What do you want?""Sparkling water," she said. After embarrassing herself at the bar the last time, she swore never to drink again."Why not something that would intoxicate you?" He asked, raising a brow. "Nothing." She shook her head. "I just don’t want to drink.""Okay," he s

Reese was standing at a close distance, looking as beautiful as ever in a sky blue evening dress that suited her color. Before he could even stop himself, he trudged to where she was standing and stood just in front of her. She gasped. "What are you doing here?""“I should be asking you that question." He said. “This event was organized by Perfect Touch.”Her eyes grew wider; she didn’t know that she was at his event. It was her new boss who took her there. "How dare you call me over the phone at the bar only for you to disappear again?" Axel said. "I called you?” She asked, confused. "Yes.” He said, "When you were drunk at the bar." He told her, and she widened her eyes in surprise. She had no memory of that at all. "What did I say?" She asked, raising her brow. "You only said I made you look pathetic." She pressed her lips together. "I’m sorry. It ain’t happening again." She blew out a sharp breath. "If you would please excuse me, I have to go and see my boss." She said as sh
