I felt the sheet tangled up around my legs, the air conditioner in room made the air chilly and I trembled as the air touched the exposed parts of my skin.I turned my head to look at Adrian, he was awake staring at the ceiling with unwavering seriousness as his chest heaved slowly, it was a struggle taking my eyes away from him.If I don't control my misleading thoughts I might embarrass myself soon if he ever catches me staring. He laid beside me far away almost at the edge of the bed yet the distance between us felt small and suffocating .I had managed to lay still all through the night with my back to him, I couldn't afford casting tempting glimpses at his face every time I jolted awake to observe my surroundings, I needed a constant reminder this was also for show.Now that the night was over, and the tension back, even stronger than before."How are you feeling today?", He asked still not taking his eyes away from

You worked for only two days and now you think it's that easy, don't be delusional. I ----”, Victoria stopped talking as Adrian holds his hand up to silence her." Moving on, the first person here is responsible for squandering profits for a clothing line funded by Adrian. And also manipulating data hide the h

I was desperate to break away from his toxicity."Not possible, have you forgotten you're father sold you off like an object to settle his debts. Debts I'm going to make sure ruins him until he becomes irrelevant ", He barked obviously put off my question."Of course you would, what else should I expect from a sadist like you", I said." I don't like your tone, Evelyn ", he huffed."You don't hear me complaining about yours ", I replied."You might think you would derive satisfaction from destroying me, but it would never erase the bitterness and emptiness inside you, this is not the right way to overcome grief", I continued hardening my voice.For a fraction of a second his steely expression faltered, but he masked it q

Evelyn's Pov.I spent the night in my room restless, fighting off the triggering pleasure Adrian had managed to rouse in me. I was unable to sleep, as I kept rolling from one side of the bed to the other.What is really wrong with this man and his contradicting actions, one minute it looked like he was consumed with anger and the next his dark eyes are suddenly clouded with enmeshed evocating emotions.Joe came by as soon as trickles of morning light filtered into my room."Mr Blackwood said you need to be at the office today", He rushed out.
