All Chapters of Easy, Mr. Bigshot: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Jethro suddenly wrapped his arm around my waist and smiled warmly at me. He… He was cooperating!“I went a little rough that night, babe. Sorry about that.” His smile was almost too seductive. And his voice—it was so gentle. “I hope you’re feeling better now.”I froze. Anyone being stared at that way by an impossibly handsome man would short-circuit. And once I processed his words, I was flustered. Why the hell did he have to start with that?!“Uh… Y-Yeah! It was, uh, nothing.” I smiled and looked away. I couldn’t bear to look into those unreadable eyes anymore.He tucked a lock of my hair behind my ear. “That’s a relief. I promise I’ll be gentler the next time, okay?”His touch made me panic! And what was this about a next time?! Boy, there were no plans for a next time, you animal! Giving him my first was the only time!No, I had to put on my happiest smile. Julia and Liam were watching, and hell were they watching. Liam’s expression had turned ugly, and I even saw flashes

“Who are you to Liam Mercer?” he finally demanded.My heart ached at the name despite myself, but I had been through worse pains than this. This was nothing, and I could easily mask it. “Nobody,” I answered truthfully.He used to be more. He was the man I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with, but that was no longer.Jethro’s eyes turned cold. Don’t give me that bullshit, Serena Hart.” I was shocked. How did he…? I raised my head. “How do you know my name?” I asked gingerly.“That’s what you’re surprised about? It’s not that hard to find out.” He frowned as if I was an idiot.“L-Look, there’s somewhere I really need to be, okay? Meeting you here was a coincidence, and I’m thankful for your help and everything, but I really gotta go.”I tried to leave, but he pulled me back. His hands pressed on the wall on either side of me, locking me in place. He got close, pressing up against me. Until this moment, I never knew my heart could beat so fast. His handsome face was

I was also well aware that the company belonged to Jethro, but see, this advertising company was just one of his many side projects. There was no way a big man like him would show up here. The chances were as low as 0.1%. All I wanted right now was to make it big in a famous company. I could not afford to fall and waste my life anymore. I had my dreams and ambitions, and I wanted to fight for them. I knew I could do it. I had the experience and the skills. Any company short of this one would have hired me for sure.I was not so sure about this one though. Titan Advertising Incorporated, better known as Titan Ads, paid its employees handsomely. And as such, the prerequisites to land a position here were extremely high. I lacked the confidence I would’ve had interviewing with other companies. After the interview, I could not shake myself out of the experience. The company was larger than I had imagined, with its employees numbering in the thousands. All that made me think of Jethro.

Giselle then threw herself into Jethro's arms, desperate for his embrace. Once a woman lowered herself this much, you'd think no guy would have the heart to reject her, especially when she's as stunning and famous as Giselle. Men would line up around the block just for a moment with her. I was certain Jethro would soften up, but what unfolded next caught me off guard.Jethro promptly pushed her away, his face an emotionless mask. "I said, we're through. I don't want to have to say it a third time." As he stared icily.This guy sure was ruthless. He was ditching her like it was nothing and seemed to think he was justified in doing so. He clearly wasn’t a good man. Silently, I pegged him as a complete jerk.But then it hit me. If even Liam, who was just a department manager, could cheat and keep his options open, why would Jethro be any different? Jethro was a wealthy and capable tycoon after all. The idea that he trades in girlfriends like last season's fashion was not an impossibili

“So, you're set on breaking up with a stunning woman like Giselle? If you're having second thoughts, maybe you should consider forgiving her.”Old wisdom always told us to make peace, not war. Though I myself would never stand for betrayal, openly agreeing with Jethro's decision might raise his suspicions. Nudging him toward reconciliation was a safer move."Do you think I, Jethro Willow, would forgive a woman who cheated on me?" His handsome face darkened, and anger flashed through his eyes.I let out an uneasy chuckle, uncertain of my next move. Hey, you were the one who broke up with your woman, and what could I possibly say about that? I just happened to overhear you guys. Was it necessary for you to make things so difficult for me?"Our relationship isn't what you think. It was a relationship of mutual benefit. She was after fame and fortune, and I was just satisfying my physical needs," Jethro said, casting me a sidelong glance. His tone was so flat that it was tough to read
