All Chapters of Entangled with the Billionaire : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Scarlett gave herself the biggest pep talk of her life and managed to show up at work the next week. Thankfully, Mr. Cameron Grayson was not at the office, and she was more than relieved when she found out. In the following days, she made the extra effort to avoid him. It was taxing, but it was all worth it in the end. Her relationship with Lucious had improved because she took up all his errands, which took her out of the office for hours. Lucious was more than happy to oblige her. At the end of the day, she felt exhausted, but it was all for the best. Of course, she was not stupid to think she was going to be able to carry it on for long. She worked in the Grayson’s office, and it would be impossible to avoid Mr. Grayson completely. However, she was going to drag it on for as long as she could, until she was mentally ready. She shuddered at the thought of it. Could she ever be mentally ready?Benjamin had been helpful too. He still was confused as to why and always had a worried ex

Lucious was dressed in white wide-legged pants and a matching jacket, the neckline of the jacket was deep, showing his bare chest. His hair was braided into big cornrows, and he was carrying a purse in one hand with his tablet, while the other hand was in the pocket of his trousers. As he walked past some employees, they cleared a path for him. No one wanted the attention of Lucious, especially not in the morning. He looked away from the tablet in his hands, his eyes taking in the environment. A pleased smile crept up on his lips as he heard the small whispers among the employees, everyone clearly avoiding his path. His smile widened; he loved his job. When he got to the elevators and it opened, two men were inside. As soon as they saw him, they scurried off, leaving him all alone. He shook his head in amusement as he walked into the elevator.He was fixated on his tablet, and when he walked into Grayson’s office, he almost bumped into Cameron. “Mr. Grayson…” He called out in a fluster

Lucious held an umbrella over Cameron’s head, as he struggled to keep up with his long strides, “Remind me, why are we doing this again, Mr. Grayson.”Cameron was flanked on each side by hefty bodyguards, dressed in black suit and dark shades. “It is a kind gesture for an employee...”He gritted his teeth as he looked up at the large boutique. It was fancy, quite alright but Cameron never did his shopping, let alone shop for a lady, “Couldn’t we have had someone else do the tedious work for us, Mr. Grayson. I mean...” He held the door open for him, “I can surely think up a thousand other ways you should be spending your time.”Cameron squeezed his shoulders. “I do enjoy spontaneous acts like this.” He replied before walking in.Lucious touched the shoulder where Cameron’s hands had been, he bit down on his lower lips and sucked in a breath before rushing to meet up with him.As soon as they walked in, a couple of shop attendants rushed towards them, with a wide grin that almost reache

Those words hung in the air, even after he left the room.The way he said them, the piercing stare of his beautiful grey eyes, his deep baritone voice that had sent tingles down to her toes. Those words held a deeper meaning, a promise. There was nothing casual about the words he said...She exhaled and slumped on the chair across from his, resting her head on the table. The mental gymnastics going on in her head was exhausting. Her brain was working overtime, trying to make sense of the man that was Cameron Grayson. What was he thinking per time? What was the end goal? Why did he keep tethering at the edge, what was he getting out of all of this? She groaned and stretched on the table. The questions were endless. How long would he continue? Would they ever have a normal working relationship, or would he never stop with his subtle jabs and...Her head shot up suddenly, she looked towards the corner of the wall, and just like she guessed, there was a camera

Cameron walked in, accompanied on one side by Lucious who was whispering in his ear as they walked together. On the other side was a lady escort from the company, and Benjamin was carrying the briefcase and Lucious’s bag. He could hear her unsure steps behind him. He couldn’t help but smile; he was enjoying this too much, teasing her like this. It excited him so much, his desire for her... He shut his eyes and sucked in a breath, not now. Not when he had a big meeting ahead...As they reached the doors, one of the bodyguards rushed forward and opened the large doors. The conference room of Sterling Company was bathed in soft light, with a panoramic view of the city skyline visible through floor-to-ceiling windows. As soon as they walked in, the people seated around the large mahogany table stood to their feet to welcome them.Mr. Johnson, the CEO of Sterling Company, extended a hand to him, “Mr. Grayson, it is a pleasure.” Cameron shook his hand
