All Chapters of Married To Mr. Billionaire's Sweet Temptation: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Three days with Tristan ... never before had Clarice been so close to a man she had only met since the death of her boyfriend. Tristan was gentle with a much different character than when they first met. He didn’t show much of a caring side, but he understood what Clarice needed. Three days with Tristan could even make Clarice slowly accept Joel's death. But Clarice still considered Joel her boyfriend because she still loved him so much. She could only accept his death with the little she felt. Now, there were four days left when she would face Joshua again. She felt so heavy to face him, especially with her closeness with Tristan just now. It felt like she was betraying him even though they were not in a relationship. Tristan kept asking if Joshua was seeing her or not, but Clarice always replied that Joshua wasn't seeing her, which was true. Joshua had promised Clarice that he wouldn't see her until the week was up. "I won't see you for a week until you come and tell me your

Tristan's words were no joke to Clarice. Because Clarice did make a mistake for him, she didn't tell Tristan about Joshua and her university reunion which even had Joshua in it. Somehow Clarice didn't want to tell him and that was what made her feel guilty. "Why are you silent? Did you make a mistake?" asked Tristan who noticed Clarice's silence. Clarice was taken aback. She shook her head quickly, not wanting to create a suspicion that would make her feel even more guilty. "N–no. I–I just miss Joel," Clarice replied, softly. Tristan sighed. Whenever Clarice discussed and mentioned Joel, it made him feel even more jealous and resentful. He knew there was no point in feeling that way when he knew the person she longed for was dead. But it still meant that Clarice still had Joel in her heart. The reason Clarice always used Joel's name was to avoid any suspicion. Because it proved to be true when she saw Tristan's expression when she mentioned Joel's name, he changed. He seemed

JOSHUA PULLED CLARICE'S HAND OUT. They were now face to face in a place where their college friends didn't see them, but of course, many of them were curious about what happened to the two of them. "Well, let's talk. What do you want to talk about, Clarice?" asked Joshua, calmly. "Aren't you the one who wanted to talk to me? That was just an excuse for Kristi to leave me, I know you're a man who can't be denied." Joshua smiled wryly. "I don't like you wearing clothes like that." "It's not what I wanted!" "But you can say no. You know, you almost seduced a few guys in there, including ... me." Clarice swallowed. How could she get out of Joshua's sight if it was like this? She didn't even have a change of clothes and she certainly hadn't thought of anything like this. "There's a clothes shop nearby, I'll take you there," Joshua said suddenly. He pulled her hand back to the car park, but this time Clarice stopped him by dismissing his hand. "No!" Joshua's eyes darkened.

"Explain to me, Kristi!" said Clarice, grabbing her hand. Right now she just wanted to talk to Kristi, she wanted to know if Kristi knew all about Joshua's plans or not. "I don't know, Clarice. I only found out when Edo told me when Joshua was with you. If I had known from the beginning, I would have told you." Clarice sighed, looking frustrated. She looked away from where Joshua was because she knew he was still watching her. "I'm really stuck and can't do anything!" Kristi felt bad that she couldn't help her friend after seeing how frustrated Clarice was. Everyone here knew how powerful Joshua had always been, of course, they didn't speculate because they knew what Joshua was like. They all even knew that there was something strange about the way Clarice looked at Joshua. Her look of fear towards someone who threatened her. But again, no one could do anything but watch and enjoy the show. "Did he hurt you?" asked Kristi with concern and worried. Clarice shook her head. J

CLARICE GOT A CALL FROM TRISTAN. She was in her office, busy staring at her laptop screen without seeing who was calling her. Then she was surprised to hear Tristan's voice, and she confirmed on her cell phone screen that it was him. Clarice was almost at a loss for what to say because, since last night, she hadn't contacted him. Because before Joshua threatened her by saying he would destroy Tristan if she fell in love with him, she wanted to call him and explain, but after hearing his threat, Clarice decided against it. "Clarice," Tristan called back to her. "Ah– y–yes!" "Did he sleep in your apartment last night so you didn't call me?" Apparently, Tristan was waiting for her to call him. Yet she didn't. It was for Tristan's sake as well as her own. She had had enough of the pressure of the deal Joshua had made with her. "He didn't stay over, and sorry, I was sleepy so I didn't call you," Clarice replied. "Clarice I'd like us to meet after you get off work. Meet me at my offic
