All Chapters of Devious Billionaire Husband: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"So you work in JDLI as an Interior Designer, and you finally got your first project today after a month of assisting your colleagues, and yet here you are drinking, I bet you feel a bit pressured and anxious since it's your first project." It was Kyle, the guy who went to me and introduce himself a while ago. I was surprised at how smoothly our conversation is going. I thought that his agenda was to hit on me like inviting me to a hotel for a one-night stand just like the common thing that guys in the bar do. But he was respectful and friendly. It feels like he was not here to flirt but to get to know me. "You can say that, but also I got some personal problems that I can't share with you for now," I said. I told Kyle the reason why I decided to move here and where my current job is. I didn't tell him about my problem with James and the chaos that he brought into the office which is the main reason why I'm here. I know that sometimes it's better to share your problem with a stran

"Are you okay, girl?" I nodded and smiled at Hannah. "Hangover," I whispered. Hannah nodded and went back to work. I massage my temples. I feel like my head was about to explode. I badly need coffee, that's my best remedy for my hangover. I forgot to buy a caffe macchiato at Starbucks because I will be late for work. James is acting really weird. I can't believe that he made an effort to go to my unit just to remind me of how in love and happy Andrew is with Mara. As if I don't know that fact. After all these years, he still considers me a threat to the relationship between Mara and Andrew. Maybe because I'm very vocal to him about my feelings for his brother. But I never failed to assure him that I have no plan of stealing Andrew or ruining the marriage that Mara and Andrew has. Aside from my genuine love and care for Mara, I love their daughter so much, and I consider Tanya as my daughter. I will never do something to hurt Tanya. I will always choose to protect her. And if I

"The pasta is almost done, can you prepare the table?" "Sure," James said then he went to the kitchen cabinet.I raise my brow when I notice that James knew where the plates and utensils are placed. Then I remember when he was enjoying his coffee the first time he went here... take note, he prepare it himself in my kitchen without asking my permission.I place the creamy pumpkin and mushroom pasta on the dining table, James was already seated. James was about to get some pasta when I place a bowl of pumpkin soup in front of him. "I prepare a pumpkin soup for you, you should eat that first since it's passed dinner time," I said. James smile at me and nodded. He obediently eats his soup."I didn't know you can cook," James said after he finished his soup. I put the pasta on his plate and mine. Though I can't eat much because I already had dinner with Kyle, I still decided to eat with him. "There are many things you don't know about me," I said as a matter of fact and smirked. Jame

"Have you seen her plan?" I waved to David the folder of Yelle's Interior Design Plan for Allen's. I knew that she will do good in this project. I've seen some of her works in the Philippines. So this is not a surprise to me. "I'm a proud husband here," I say then smirk. "Are you sure that telling Hailey about your marriage with Yelle is the right move?" David suddenly asked. Everyone here in the office knew that Hailey likes me. She has no intention of hiding it. It's the reason why some of the employees are scared to hit on me or even just to have a conversation with me. I did nothing on those issues because it works for me. I never plan nor want to flirt with any of my employees including Hailey.Hailey for me is special but not in a romantic way. The feelings I have for her are the same with Mara, it's plain platonic. I told Hailey many times that we will never be lovers but she is not giving up. She keeps on believing that someday, I will learn to love her the same way. That'

"Don't forget our dinner tonight, James."I mimic Hailey's annoying voice. I rolled my eyes as I went to my seat. So James and Hailey will have a dinner date tonight? That explains why Hailey was easily tame. She got what she wants. I thought that James only see her as a friend. Didn't he realize that he is leading her on by abiding by her whims? The more he gives in to her whims, the more she will hope for them.James should have known that being too nice to someone who has feelings for him is not good. He should learn from his brother, his kindness and gentleness lead someone to go crazy for him to the point of scheming evil things just to win him, good thing Mara and Andrew's love is stronger than the evil scheme of Jana. I'm worried that Hailey might become like Jana if he will keep on leading her on.Sometimes when people are in love, they tend to do evil things and they use "love" as an excuse to justify their actions. And I strongly disagree we that. Love is a wonderful thin
