All Chapters of Forbidden; Billionaire’s Secret Desire: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Chapter 71Three days slipped by really fast, with Hayley barely noticing it. She spent most of the days burying herself in work. She had painted so many Angel paintings that she no longer needed a manuscript to work with. Alex had called only once, and it was Sara that he called to ask how Hayley was holding up with the paintings and if she was giving any troubles. She scoffed at the thought, the nerve of him to think she needed proper checking up like she was some kid. Sara only came to see her when she had to deliver food, or to pass messages she thought that Hayley would need. Having gotten tired of apologizing, Hayley never bothered to apologize to Sara, nor did she even try to call Alex. Although the urge to see him proved almost unbearable most times, but the paintings were not the only things that kept her thoughts away from her domineering boss. There was also the fact that she was almost always overrun with tiredness these days and her splitting headache would not go away

Chapter 73When Hayley left Alex's office on the pretense that she was hungry, because otherwise he wouldn't let her leave, she burst into Allan's office, which pretty much housed a wide display of art he was currently sorting. Her coming in interrupted his meeting with a client, earning a surprised but pleased look from Allan and a rude frown from the client. Waiting for Allan to finish without interrupting the annoying woman, who was old enough to be his mother, was going to be difficult. So Hayley wandered around the display room, where most of her paintings were currently being framed and wrapped. She noted that the previous display had been replaced by a selection of new ones, all from her art book and a different section of the room, which was opened today, housed all the collection of Angel she had made so far. Intrigued by the beauty and perfection of all that magic, all created by her, she lost her sense of urgency in admiration. It was amazing what Alex could do, she thou

Chapter 75Early the next morning, Hayley was gently awakened by Sara, who informed her that Alex was waiting for her downstairs. She rubbed her eyes tiredly, still very sleep drunk. She had totally forgotten about the planned trip, so she had to blink several times before her brain registered what Sara had just said. "Why didn't he come and wake me himself?" She found herself asking in a gruff voice. "He doesn't want to be kept waiting. He said you should meet him downstairs in ten minutes.” She scoffed, but she didn't want to argue with Sara since she was still yet to apologize for her previous outburst. So quietly, Hayley sauntered into the bathroom and showered, making sure to be quick. As much as she would have loved to provoke Alex in the morning, she didn't want to miss the fun of having him show her around Paris by spoiling his mood. So with that thought in mind, she finished bathing and was already dressed in five minutes. She was hurling the big suitcase that Claire ha

Chapter 77The streets were busy, and dirty, reminding her of her addiction days. Those were dark times, just before she was sent to the rehab where her life took a turn for what she couldn't describe as the best or the worse. Sandy ruffled her bag for a few dollar bills and flung them at the hungry kids with dirty clothes and puppy eyes. On seeing a generous clean stranger, more of the kids swam towards her, even the adults. She took out a few more notes and tossed it at the adults, who were now grinning from ear to ear. She returned their appreciative smiles and even tossed them a roll of blunt which earned a welcome gesture from them. "What do you want?" A ginger haired woman with tired brows asked with an unimpressed tone. "I'm looking for someone." "Who?" "No.68B St Klein Block." She looked at her phone screen to be sure she had not made a mistake and nodded in satisfaction. The smiles around them stopped and everyone was now ogling at her. Sandy frowned, she recognized the

Chapter 79Hayley did not stir for the remaining hours before dawn, when she woke up to the chilly air from the air conditioner. She turned it off first before groping her way to the bathroom where she brushed her teeth with a vengeance. By the time she got out of the shower, her dress had already been arranged on the bed, everything down to her underwear was neatly laid there. She couldn't help the blush that crept into her face as she wondered who would have probably done that. She picked her phone and dialed Alex's number, but as expected, he didn't pick the call. She tried it three more times and gave up, deciding to let him so she focused on getting into the body hug dress that had been laid out for her. By the time she finished dressing and styled her hair the way Claire had shown her, she was pleased with the image that stared back at her in the mirror. So, deciding that Alex's anger would melt the minute he saw her in this dress, she left the room with a wide grin. Quite a
