All Chapters of Addicted To A Billionaire: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Thelma's POV:I arrived home late, at around 8:30 PM, as I was so nervous driving along the expressway. "How did it happen?" I asked myself as I couldn't believe that I slept with Mavin White, and worse, in his office."Oh no... Dad is going to find out, and how would he react?" I kept asking myself questions as I honked my car in front of our house gate.Shortly, I drove into the garage as the security man pulled and shut the gate closed.I could see Steven's car parked in our garage. Though Steven has a lot of cars, the car he used in the morning was a black Bentley, so I nervously stepped down from my car after switching off the engine.I touched my neck nervously, as I was still having Mavin White's towel wrapped around my neck, and his scent was so filled in the towel.I gulped several times as I took my handbag that contained my phone inside it. Next, I proceeded to go into our mansion.As I stepped onto the ground floor, I saw my Father and Steven discussing as they both sat o

**Thelma.**I stepped out of the elevator and walked toward Lady Elena's office. Most of the staff were busy clicking on their computers, and I felt a little relieved that the second floor wasn't as noisy as the first.Soon, I was standing in front of Lady Elena's office, waiting for her to finish with the man she was attending to. Finally, she waved to me to come inside.I told her that I wasn't yet assigned to any department in their company, and her response was, "The boss hasn't yet confirmed you to work with us. So you have to wait for the boss to arrive first, as our boss's assistant cannot attend to you today.""Why? I mean, must Boss Mavin be the one to attend to me?" I asked, as I clearly didn't want to meet Mavin again."Yes, because you met with him yesterday. What happened between the two of you? There are rumors that you spent almost four to five hours in Boss Mavin's office. Did he do anything out of the ordinary with you?" Lady Elena asked me, and my cheeks immediately f

**Mavin.**My father angrily looked at me before shifting his gaze back to his father, asking, "Are you asking me to leave, Dad? Fine, what about the company? You can't just continue to lock it up!""Go back home, Luke, and wait until I'm ready to open the company, or better still, look for something else to do," Grandpa Charlie replied. My father glared at me once more as I stood there waiting for him to leave. Finally, he turned and exited my living room silently while I looked back at my grandfather, who was now drinking the herbal tea that Angela had served him.I sighed and asked, "Grandpa, what about the company? I already agreed to marry now, so why not give it to Dad? That way, he can stop hating on me. I don't really need the company, as I’m self-made.""I know, Mavin, but you see, Luke is my son. Before you were born, he had his own life. Don't listen to him; he's just angry that I accepted you and took you away from him. He knows I can't give him my company, so don’t pay att

Thelma, Mrs. Elena Brown informed me that her boss had arrived and instructed me to proceed to the fourth floor to see Mavin. I was nervous to see him as I had been waiting since morning. I know I should have left the company, but I still wanted to speak to him. I intended to tell him face-to-face that we couldn't date and that we should forget about the possibility of being together. I was really nervous when he started asking me questions about why I returned to work at his company. I felt like I was being interviewed all over again. Feeling scared, I tried to leave when he stood up from his seat. He caught me before I could reach the door and turned me around to face him. "Why are you running away when I haven't finished my questions?" Mavin asked, his white eyes adding to my fear. I mentioned that my father had warned me to keep my distance from him. Mavin then asked if I had ever asked my father why he said that. "No, he just warned me to stay away from you," I replied, no

Thelma's Point of View: I knew that my father and Steven would find out the truth about what had happened. I was nervous and couldn't meet their gazes. Father was angry, and he had every right to be. I didn't say anything, and Father left while Steven waited. "Thelma, what happened? You need to calm down and explain to me," Steven spoke in an alluring voice. "There's nothing to explain. Mavin is the man I met with last weekend," I said tearfully, and Steven gasped, "What?" "Could you repeat that?" Steven urged me to speak. "You mean you actually met with Mavin White the previous week? Thelma! How could you?" Steven paced about, and I finally looked up at him. "I didn't know he was Mavin White," I replied between sobs. Steven turned to look back at me, glared at me, and asked, "Then how do you explain all these new marks on your neck?" "I don't know. We just happened to do it again. I think Mavin likes me, but he looks angry about something," I said. "Shut up, Thelma! You're
