All Chapters of Entangled with the Billionaire : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

“Scarlett...”She was about to walk in through the doors of Grayson Industries when someone called out to her. She turned around sharply to see someone holding a large bouquet of balloons and a box of chocolates in their hand. It was hard to see their face. She glanced behind her to see if there was someone else who was also named Scarlett.“Me?” she asked quizzically.He let out a deep chuckle, “Is there another Scarlett?”She shook her head in disbelief. Of course, she recognized that voice. “Jaxon...”He moved the balloons to the side. “Good morning, Scarlett.”She nodded in response. “Good morning,” she rubbed her cheeks nervously. “Is there any chance in hell that the ridiculously large balloon bouquet is not for me?”He shrugged. “What do you think?”She glanced around. They were already attracting funny stares from people walking by. “Jaxon, people are looking at us,” she said through clenched teeth.“That was the whole point, wasn’t it?” he asked. “To get people’s attention, m

Scarlett peeked at him from the top of her menu.His attention was fixated on the menu in front of him. "Scarlett, pick a meal, the waiter will be here any moment.""How...""How did I see you?" He cut in, his attention fully on her.She sighed. "Never mind.""What is it, Scarlett?" he asked, sipping a glass of water.She exhaled. "Is it really necessary?" She looked around. "You and I together in this...""For the umpteenth time, yes, it is," he answered. She had asked the question three times on their ride here. "Remember that part about me not coming off as a deranged stalker with a balloon?"She chuckled as she thought about it. "Yes.""That's why we have to hang out on a proper date and hope they get pictures of us. If they don't, well, I'll post one of us."She shook her head. "I just can't believe that we are fooling anyone. The timing is off...""If you think the media truly cares about the accuracy of the information they put out, then let me drop a shocker: no, no they aren'

Scarlett rushed into the restroom, closing the door shut behind her. She stared at her reflection in the mirror, tears flowing freely down her cheeks. Of course, they had sex. What was she thinking? A part of her wanted all her fears to be wrong, she didn’t want to believe all the thoughts she had about Cameron, about being nothing but just another number to him. Maybe it was true. All of what they said was true. She didn’t stand a chance, not with Hadley being around.She clung to herself tightly as her sobs racked her lithe frame, tears flowing unabashedly down her cheeks. She wiped at them, but she couldn’t stop the tears.Her heart was breaking at the thought of the man she wanted but couldn’t have, the man she loved. Love? She hadn’t given it much thought until now. It had to be love. Why else would she be crying at the knowledge that a man she was casually involved with had sex with another? Why did she stare into those grey eyes and feel betrayal? Why did the knowledge hurt mor

They all turned to look at her, Lucious's expression was one of disappointment that their conversation was cut off, which was quite understandable. He had become quite a good conversation partner, and she was grateful for their friendship.Cameron, on the other hand, had a look of astonishment that quickly turned into realization. She didn't understand it, and frankly, she didn't want to understand. It was day five of following Whitney's advice, and every day was harder than the last. She couldn't bring herself to look him in the eye. "I'm just going to take this," she whispered in a small voice and moved away from them."Hello, mom.""How are you, Scarlett?""Fine, and you?" her voice was hushed. She glanced at them."Why are you whispering?" Clarissa queried. "Are you okay?"She nodded at first, until she realized she couldn't see her. "I'm still at work, mom...""So, you're with Cameron?"She peeked at him. "Yes.""Just the two of you?""Eww! No."Clarissa chuckled. "You were fine

“Is he coming to work today?” Scarlett asked Lucious as he walked into the office.“No,” he answered, “I didn’t get any response when I reached out to him.”Her face fell. It had been a week since she saw Cameron. Even when she went to his house to pick up Levi, she didn’t see him. Instead, Miss Sharma received her.“Do you think I should reach out to him?”Lucious plopped down on his chair. “What do you think?”She didn’t even think she had the right words to say to him, or that she wanted to speak to him. “I don’t think that’s great…”Lucious shrugged. “You have broken the man.”She shot him a playful glare.Lucious chuckled. “Don’t think too much about it. Cameron has never been the type to come to work every single day. He probably just needs a break, or he’s in some important meeting…”“Without his personal assistant or his secretary?”He scratched his jaw. “I know that’s odd, but we have to trust that he’s fine. I do periodic checks. His housekeeper said he’s breathing fine. I g
