All Chapters of Captivating The Brutish Billionaire: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~Gunther~I wanted her to get jealous. I wanted her to snatch my heart away. I wanted her to help me heal. I want her to want me, to own me. Yet, she chose to wipe away her tears and raise an eyebrow at me instead.Did I see the hurt in her eyes, or was it merely a figment of my imagination?"How can you say you're in love with her, if you're sleeping with other women? Hmm?" For a while, I was unable to speak. I have to confess, she had me there.Though, she made a mistake by believing that lie. That cock and bull story of mine. "Did you honestly fall for that lie, love? The only woman I slept with was you." The look on her face when I said the last part was priceless, I nearly cackled. "Well, almost. I almost slept with you." I took the initiative to correct myself. She scoffed, trying to process what I said. "So, I. . I cheated with you?" My head tipped to one side, leaving a crease across my forehead. "What?" "We cheated on Carlyle's mother, didn't we?" She appeared to be

~Yesenia~"Yesenia Daenerys."Thump thump. Thump thump. Cripes! That deep voice startled me out of nowhere, causing me to stop in my tracks. My heart pounded like a drum in my chest, its booming was furious and incessant.My knees suddenly shook, it was starting to feel a little bit wobbly.I am aware that it was him, the man who had been the subject of my fantasies for years. He rarely speaks to me unless it was something significant about our work. So, I was guessing it was either about the young master or perhaps the young lady. However, I was not in the best mood to talk to him right now.For crying out loud, he just caught me sneaking a glimpse at him while he was sparring with the young master.I have done this before and this was the first time he had caught me in the act, something I couldn't brush off. I pretended not to hear anything and continued to make my way up the stairs to the theater room's exit.Once I was outside, I exhaled a loud sigh of relief. "Phew. I barel

~Gunther~ When Agathe assured me that she would make me want to forget everything about Carlyle's mother and only make me think about her from now on, I believed her. I was not sure if I should be regretful that I caved into her persistence because look at her now, pretending she has a terrible headache so that I may stop our sparring match. Yet in the end, I gave in. I know I should be alarmed. Because little by little, she was changing me. She was not even trying that hard. "Alright. Looks like you're not feeling well, love. Shall we carry on tomorrow?" I got up, offering my hand to her. "Come on. Let's wake Carlyle up and have some breakfast." I reached out my hand to her, and she took her time to accept it. When she did, I helped her stand up, our lips almost crashing with each other. She covered her mouth immediately, looking embarrassed. "Why? You still haven't brushed your teeth, have you?" I ribbed her. She slowly moved away, releasing my grip on her. "Gunther,

~Agathe~It was hard to like someone. And, it was harder to like someone who loves someone else.I would have carefully guarded my heart around Gunther if I had known about it. In a desperate attempt to lessen the pain I was feeling, I tapped my chest several times. However, as Yesenia carried on with her story, she seemed to be somewhat unaware of it. "When they accidentally bumped into each other, Sir Gunther was beyond mesmerized."Ohh, God.The fact that Yesenia's eyes were once again beaming with admiration, much to my chagrin, made those words kind of sting. "Time stood still, he was absolutely enthralled. Again, it was his exact words, young lady. Not mine." I scoffed, unintentionally rolling my eyes at Yesenia. "Which makes me wonder how you were able to remember his exact words, Yen. It has been five years, you say?"Jokingly, I moved my face closer to hers. "Are you, by any chance, the mother of Carlyle?" The subsequent hush was so uncomfortable that I almost believed Y

~Agathe~In the plush backseat of his car, Gunther was seated directly next to me. I didn't give a damn if he could feel me staring at him incessantly from head to toe. Once more, seeing him dressed in a fancy three-piece suit sparked the kind of desire I am not even aware I had. How can he be so good-looking in everything he wears? He looks absolutely stunning no matter what he puts on.How on earth is that even possible? Not to mention he smells so damn good. And, watching the way his Adam's apple moves sensually every time he speaks on his earpiece is indeed breathtaking.Definitely, a wonderful sight to behold, his insane handsomeness is compelling me to lose my mind. "Stop staring at me, love. Because soon enough, it's going to become a habit of yours. Though, I would love that to happen."Gunther spoke, but he didn't glance at me; he was focused on the laptop sitting on his lap. I pretended not to hear him at all as I sat upright and rolled my eyes at him. He could have at
