All Chapters of Entangled with the Billionaire : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Clarissa rushed towards Scarlett as soon as she walked in, “How did your day go?”Scarlett exhaled, tucking her hair behind her ear, “I can’t say for certain…”“Come on, Scar, give me something.” Clarissa pleaded, her eyes were wide like huge saucers.“I think things went smoothly…” she replied as an afterthought.Clarissa exhaled in relief, “Thank heavens…”“Maybe too smoothly…” Scarlett added before plunging down on the couch.Clarissa came up beside her quickly, “Scar, I'm goung to need more than that.”“He didn’t refer to anything that happened that day. He didn’t mention Levi or you. The only time he acknowledged that event was when he asked why I left the job,” she explained.“And what did you say?”“Nothing.” Scarlett sighed, “I didn’t have a sensible reason to give.” She massaged her temples, “I mean we talked about everything, work, Lucious, even my hair but nothing about our meeting. I couldn’t help but think there was something up, like he was deliberately avoiding the subje

Scarlett was sitting cross-legged in front of her table, her eyes fixated on her screen, sipping from a cup. Her workload had doubled, and she knew it was all thanks to Lucious. Lucious hated her guts, even more now that he found out she had dark hair. He didn’t look like he was going to admit that she had fooled him with a cheap box dye, but he sure knew how to express his displeasure.Suddenly, the doors opened with a force that startled her. She looked up from her laptop to stare into the disgruntled face of Cameron. His hair looked like he had run his fingers through it repeatedly, his brows furrowed, and his full lips were upturned. His black jacket was slung over his arm, his tie hung loosely around his neck, and a few buttons of his black silk shirt were undone.She got to her feet, her eyes giving him a once-over. “Mr....Cameron,” she corrected herself at the last minute.“Pack up, we have somewhere to go,” he responded without sparing her a glance.The lines of worry on her fo

Scarlett lost track of time and any sensible thought the moment she lost sight of the taillights of Cameron’s car as he drove away. Nothing made sense, just like that lonely morning in Paris. Tears were flowing freely down her cheeks, fresh ones brimming in her eyes, her thoughts were all over the place. Cameron knew, somehow he knew. For how long, she didn’t know, but he had a test, he had done a DNA test.She raked through her head trying to figure it all out, and it made sense that he knew the very first time he saw Levi. Yes, Levi had all of his features, but how could he have been so sure, how... Yet, somehow, the weeks that followed after that, he had pretended like nothing happened, like he didn’t just find out something as huge as that, why...What did it mean? She thought to herself, what was he going to get out of all this? What was he planning? The more she thought about it, the pang in her chest heightened.She didn’t know how she got to her house, but she was standing at t

Despite all the emotions she was feeling inside, she couldn’t help but gawk at him as the photographers clicked pictures of him in different poses. She forced herself to look away, and that was when she saw Lucious staring at him with a look that could be better described as adoration and worship. She turned to the photographer, who was smiling too hard. She couldn’t tell if it was normal excitement or the kind that Lucious was feeling.She turned to the assistant, who seemed to be the only one in clear headspace among them. He simply moved about with a blank expression on his face. Scarlett rubbed her neck. If she didn’t find a way to put this damned attraction to him behind her, it would be hard for her to make smart decisions concerning Levi.“I think we’ve got it!” the photographer announced.Lucious frowned. “Are you sure?”“Come, check the photos...”“Mr. Grayson, are you...”“I’m fine, Lucious,” he answered curtly.Lucious rushed towards the photographer, the assistant hovering

“It’s a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Grayson. I’m Dr. Tucker,” a short middle-aged man extended a hand to him.Cameron took it and shook firmly. “The pleasure is all mine. I just need a quick tour of the hospital.”“Of course, I and my team are here to help.”Lucious leaned closer and whispered in his ear, “We need to get you camera-ready.”“There’ll be no need for any of that, Lucious. I’m here for the children,” he answered simply.Scarlett was standing behind them and was able to catch that part of their conversation, which made her look up at him in awe.They handed each of them a scrub, a hair net, and a glove. They first walked through the administrative block of the hospital. Scarlett gawked at him as he listened attentively to the doctor’s explanations. She realized he took it seriously. This wasn’t one of those mandatory performative kindness acts he had to show as a celebrity in the media eye; he was genuinely invested in this. She had a newfound admiration for him as she
