All Chapters of Scandalous Secret Affairs: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"Happy birthday Mr Ricardo." Mark is polite when he says these words, a complete one-eighty, different from the way he was threatening Benny a few minutes ago.Leia wouldn't even believe this was the same person if not for the fact that she was currently witnessing the whole thing.She chuckles to herself as his polite tone echoes in her ear, his facade makes her wonder just how many masks he can wear when she feels Mark's arm slip around her waist as he leads her to their table. It sets Leia's teeth on edge as they all settle into their seats to commence the celebrations. They wait for the star of the show to sit first and then join him.When he finally settles, Mark guides Leia to an orange settee before settling into one beside her.He wasn't given her a second to be by herself. Ricardo gives them a smile that doesn't reach Mark's eyes. He's had a whole lot of experience for his age to not notice Mark being protective over another man's gift. "Glad to see your gift looks more th

She found it hard to believe, thinking to herself that maybe her ears may be playing tricks, when she feels cold air tickle her body. Her fabric falls to the floor before her very eyes, exposing half of her bosom to their amazement as they laugh. Unwilling to continue the fight and protect herself, she desperately clings on to her dress, trying to cover her exposed chest. With scornful eyes, the girl stares at her sluttery appearance, giggling about how she looks so much like a seductress and Leia knowing she cannot let go, takes in their words with her head low. She thinks it's not going to end but suddenly somebody pulls back the women surrounding Leia. Stopping them from continuing their violent assault.Leia slowly sits up and finds Mark showing up as her helper, who stepped in to save her from the woman and he stands right in front of her prone form, defending her.He must feel her gaze on him because he turns around and gives her an unreadable expression before unbuttoning h

The man turns around in search of the guest which Leia talks about, but finds nobody, save the car with an owner who keeps forgetting to turn off his light. "What are you talking about?" He questions her. Leia's face turns pale when the man suddenly yanks her hand, dragging her towards his car. He grumbles angrily from the cat-and-mouse game with Leia, as a matter of fact, this is probably the most patient he's ever been with a woman who defies him.Not resisting, Leia gets into the car, looking back at the car with suspicious eyes. "Hurry up, and get in there," he yells at her. She turns back to face this man and frowns from his nagging but gets in nonetheless. The car door closes and the two begin their drive. For ten minutes on the empty road, everything seems to be going fine, and Leia couldn't help but feel at peace. "Sigh~" she goes. Her eyes gently close from the stress of the night, and she succumbs to taking a nap with a gentle yawn. For a moment, all of Leia's probl

For a couple of minutes, the two stay quiet and distant in the room, especially Mark who secluded himself from his loneliness, covering his ears, he remains still. "You never really loved me did you?" He questions Leia who stays quiet.bHis answer would determine his next move, however, she's as confused as can be about what to respond with. Did she love him? "Once upon a time, when I didn't know better," she replies, instantly plunging a dagger to his heart. Mark scoffs, he's unsure of what to make of the situation or what to address himself as. A fool? Or someone who's been blinded by something he would never have. "Was it a crime, to want something?" He asks her with teary eyes. Her heart is pained by the pain she was inflicting on him, but she knows too well to leave him with false hope. The two of them were simply never meant to be. She couldn't possibly deny that. Still... If she were Mark, she would also be this hurt to know that the one thing she wanted to have, didn

Charming he looked, and yet his entire vibe gave of reg flags as if she were staring at a player. If anything she found it hard to believe he was the one who got dumped, he certainly didn't sound like the faithful kind of guy to Leia. "Does staring at me mean you consent," he asked snapping her back to reality. "It's not every day you meet someone who asks you to be their partner," she reminded him. He could only murmur as her words were true, Leia walked head-on without looking back, and he couldn't help but laugh as he watched her nervousness peak while she turned side to side. "What's so funny?" She angrily asked, but her demeanour was far from enough to frighten him. With a mischievous grin, he slipped his fingers into hers, "It feels as though today's your first day in the crime department, are you girls new to robbing people?" Leia could flinch from embarrassment he wasn't entirely wrong, it was even long ago that the three decided to pursue other means of making money aft
