All Chapters of Tangled In CEOs' Beds: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

010Lavender.I groaned, rolling to the other side of the bed with a smile on my face, my eyes still closed as my hand landed on the sheets.The smile on my face melted away and I immediately sprang up, looking at the bed to search for Charlie but he wasn't there.Did he leave me home alone after what happened between us last night?I blushed, sighing as I clutched the sheets on my chest. I pulled myself into the bathroom sheepishly with my face as red as a cooked lobster.I looked at myself in the mirror, letting go of the duvet that was wrapped around me.I smiled again, looking at my naked body in the mirror. It seemed as though I just got a new body. I felt different.I felt just the way I felt that night six years ago after my first and last sex.It felt as if I was disvirgined. Again. I felt renewed.I didn't know if I should be embarrassed or feel great about it.I gazed down at the duvet pooling around my legs. His scent still lingered in the sheets.I raised my gaze again, lo

012Lavender.“You're not who you say you are, are you?" His once nice voice became intoxicated with just the right amount of venom to make me quiver.I cleared my throat, adjusting my posture as I maintained my act. “Sorry?"."You're not who you say you are, are you?” He spoke again.I laughed, looking him in the eye as he looked at me back.“I am who I say I am. I am Lavender Washmin." I responded, nodding confidently."You're way more than that. You know. We both know who you are. You know what I'm talking about,”.I let out a sigh, shaking my head. "Actually, Mr. D'amor, I don't know what you are talking about.".“Are you not married?" He asked, nodding his head with the same amount of confidence which I used in looking at him. He matched my energy level perfectly.“Oh, actually. It's complicated, but I would say I am married, Mr. D'amor, but with all due respect, I don't think that has anything to do with our topic here. You said I am not who I say I am.”."I appreciate your resp

014Lavender.“Miss, why would you approach me to seduce my boss, I'm pretty sure you're aware that he's my boss, right?” I frowned.“Calm down, darling. Isn't the offer enticing enough? How about two billion?” she teased, pushing further than her actual boundaries.Thinking about it actually made it enticing and I needn't lie, I wanted to take it so badly, but Lorenzo's words from earlier today which pinned me as a golddigger was really upsetting and I vowed to prove him wrong.“Honestly, it is enticing, but ma'am, you need to have some respect. What makes you think I would break my boss’s trust and seduce him for just a billion? If you want him to be seduced and ruined so badly, why don't you do it yourself then and save your money?” I asked."As you can see, I am too old for that and I can't lower my standards to seduce him because…”.I cut her off, “It's fine, I understand. You believe I have a low standard. It's fine, but I think you said you had little time left so I should let

016Lavender.I swallowed, picking the file and clutching it with the schedule book before raising my body back up to move on walking but looking at Mr. D'Amor at the front, walking away without even noticing I wasn't walking with him anymore, I just couldn't.I halted, unable to process what was going on. My head was blank at the moment.What the hell did I just see? A contract marriage?No, it can't be. It has to be a joke.Or probably he gave me the wrong file. I clenched my fist, taking a deep breath before moving on, following behind him slowly but keeping some distance between us.We arrived at the empty boardroom and I sat right beside him, waiting for the other staff to arrive as it was a meeting between the important employees of the company to discuss something important.My fingers dug into my hair, I sat there beside him, the atmosphere tense and heavy with awkwardness. I tried my best to pretend as if everything was just fine and I didn't see the contract marriage, but I

018Lavender.I let out a sigh, my shoulders lowering as my chest heaved. I swallowed, my palm sweaty in the lacey glove as I gripped the soft material of the wedding dress.The dress cascaded down my body, flowing from my waist down. My knees were slightly shivering as I gulped repeatedly, unable to believe I would be getting married to my own boss soon.My ginger hair was let down to flow down my back to match the color of the light brown contact lense in my eyes.I forced a smile, my pink lips contrasting the color of my white teeth as my lips spread ear to ear.My feet were quivering in the high heels, but I managed to contain all the nervousness as I looked at my boss on the other side of the event space, waiting for me beside the officiant.Lorenzo stared at me with no emotion on his face, making it impossible to decipher how he felt about this.He didn't even bother to force a smile like a normal groom would. He only focused on my eyes while my eyes occasionally darted to the
