Chapter 41

BAILEE The red carpet had been intimidating, but each time I started to feel overwhelmed, Alex would pull me closer to him and move us to the next area. His warm body against mine had felt so nice that a few times, I found myself leaning into him on my own, wanting to steal his body heat. It

Chapter 42

“Baby,” Alex said, and I flinched before I could stop myself at the name. He noticed. His smile faltered, and he looked away from me toward the band. “Normally people dance after the meal.” “Then let’s go to the bar to get a drink,” I said, placing my hand on his thigh and holding his stare as I

Chapter 43

BAILEE The table was tense when they called for everyone to take their seats for dinner to be served, even more so when the head of the foundation recognized ‘the very generous’ Alexander Kingston as one of their largest donors. George, Helen, and Caleb were fuming from across the table at the s

Chapter 44

I gasped as he spun me harshly until the front of my body crashed into his. “You really are more trouble than you’re worth, you know that?” Caleb spat through his clenched teeth while holding his fake smile on his face. Filled with anger, I pretended to stumble, accidentally stepping on his foo

Chapter 45

BAILEE “How much?” I asked through my teeth as I glared at him, too angry to even blink. “Oh, Bailee,” Caleb said, pulling at a piece of my hair, and I yanked my face away. “You will never make enough to release the lien.” “How much?!” I demanded louder, yanking myself out of his arms. My che

Chapter 46

BAILEE Alex groaned as my mouth connected with his. His fingers threaded into my hair, holding me closer as he took control. My shoulder blades were still against the wall as he leaned into me, but my hips were forward, pressed into his, and his hand slid from my hip to the top of my ass. “Mh

Chapter 47

BAILEE“I wasn’t disgusted! I was bothered because you clearly regretted it. I could see it on your face.” My head snapped back, and I licked my lips as I shook my head. “What? No! I was just… I don’t regret it. It was nice. I just don’t think we should do it again.” He laughed, but I could see the hurt on his face as he stepped back. “Right.” “Alex,” I sighed, guilt rearing up as I watched his face harden to hide his emotions. “Let’s just go. Do you want me to take you home, or do you want to go back inside and finish the night?” He sounded exhausted, but from how he had shut himself off from me, I knew he was hiding his real feelings. I just wished I knew which ones were real. “I think it would be best for us to go home,” I said, staring at the small white button on his shirt, unable to meet his gaze. “Okay,” Alex said, turning to leave and holding his arm out for me. We still had an image to uphold, and it wouldn’t look good for either of us to leave the party in the mid

Chapter 48

BAILEE I closed the front door quietly behind me, scared to wake up Brinley, but I was relieved to see the monitor on the coffee table and Ben on the couch in front of the television, still awake. His arms were crossed defensively as he glared at the screen, and for a moment, I thought he was angr

Chapter 49

ALEXANDER Ben picked up my call on the first ring the next day. I had expected him to have questions about what had happened, as pictures of Bailee dancing with Caleb and me getting between them were all over the tabloids and news. Nathan had been fielding calls from reporters all day. They all

Chapter 50

ALEXANDER“Thank you, Ms. Fuller. I appreciate you meeting with me.” I said, taking the seat across from her. “We’ve been seeing you with Bailee Johnson and her daughter Brinley Johnson. Rumors have it that you’re Brinley’s biological father. Is that true?” “It’s Bailee Evans, and no. Caleb Johnson is Brinley’s father. Bailee is fiercely loyal to those she loves, and I have no doubt that she was completely faithful to her ex-husband. She and I weren’t even in contact during her marriage.” “We already know that is false from the DNA test provided to the judge. Caleb Johnson was proved not to be her father.” She smirked as if she had me. “The test provided by Caleb’s team? Knowing both parties, I know who can and cannot be trusted.” I wanted to look over her shoulder into the camera she had set up there as a message to Caleb, but the viewers would just twist it as me being malicious or lying. “That is a big accusation.” She said, licking her lips with excitement as she adjusted in
