Semua Bab Married to my Ex-Fiance's Boss: Bab 51 - Bab 60

My eyebrows dipped into a frown at the empty bed. It wasn't even carrying any rumple or sign that someone had rested on it. I listened for the sound of water, maybe she was in the bathroom, but there was nothing. Just pin drop silence. A strange chill ran through me, the kind that had nothing to do with the air conditioning. Something felt off.I stepped further inside, my eyes scanning the space. Where could she be? “Claire? You in here?” I called out while knocking on her bathroom door, but I got no response. With a thumping chest, I pushed the door open but nothing laid behind the door. I made my way to her closet and then it dawned on me. She was gone. My stomach twisted. Her clothes were missing, a few of her shoes were gone and her suitcase had vanished. It then became clear to me that Claire had left the house while I was battling with Sophia. But how did she leave the house? I mean, I was at the front door with Sop— fuck! The back door!I turned around and bolted out of he

Chapter 54Out of nowhere, she stepped close and, with a tenderness I hadn't dared to hope for, she pressed her lips to mine. In that electrifying moment, time seemed to pause and all I could feel were the softness of her lips on mine. Her kiss was soft yet insistent, like she had waited very long to do it. As our lips met, I felt an indescribable warmth spread through me, mending the part of me that cracked in her absence. It was as if she had unlocked a part of my heart, filling it with a radiance that made everything else fade into insignificance.Without thinking, I returned the kiss with all the fervor of someone who had finally filled his empty colup. In that instant, I knew I was complete. A puzzle that Sofia had scattered for years, now sweetly assembled with her gentle affection.Gradually, the kiss progressed and it was no longer enough for the both of us. With every will power left in me, I pulled away from her, taking in deep breaths.Disappointment fell on her face and a

It all felt too sudden, too unreal. The dull thud that echoed behind me when I turned to go back to my desk. The sound of a body hitting the floor.My heart lurched. And when I turned around, I could swear my heart fell out of my mouth. Before my eyes he crumbled, his body giving way as if the life had been drained out of him. His hands barely caught at the edge of the desk before they slipped. “Giancarlo!” His name tore from my throat as I ran to him, my pulse pounding in my ears.I dropped to my knees beside him, my hands shaking as I was confused as to where to grab. Finally I grabbed his face, patting gently on it.“Carlo, hey—hey! What’s wrong? Talk to me!”But he grunted in response. Panic clawed at my chest as tears began to gather in my eyes. “Carlo, please—” My voice cracked as I shook him gently, but all he did was grunt. Not knowing what to do, I grabbed my phone and called the only person I could think of. “Hel–p… help, please, Giancarlo passed out and….” I couldn't say

Claire“Oh God!” The words slipped past my throat in a whisper as I flung my head back, giving him more access to my neck. His hands slid down my wet body, sending more ache and pulse to my buds. His hard bulge pressed against my pelvic bone and the feel of it against my skin made my pussy salivate. His tongue latched smoothly in my earlobe as he flicked it in it, his teeth grazing the soft texture of it. The simple action sent electric waves to every nerve in my body and another moan slipped past my throat. While he nibbled on my earlobes, his thumb circled around my nipple, getting them harder than they were already, and I just couldn't hold it back anymore. “Giancarlo…” I moaned his name, pulling his hair tighter. “Fuck! I haven't liked my name better than I've loved the sound of it right now.” He said in a dark voice. My hand wrapped around his neck as his hands slid down to the back of my hips. With a single move, he lifted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. In a rou

ClaireI lay on the bed trying to figure out a way to fight myself out of the mess that I was in.How was I going to do it? How would I survive with all of them around me? My head throbbed as the questions refused to let my eyes blink in sleep.Just the previous day, Carlo had nearly ripped his client's head off about something that had to do with me.Very busy fighting my own annoyance over Sophia, Alex and Tory, I had not noticed any out-of-place stare from Theodore even when Carlo insisted there was.So when the fight broke out, my heart panged in mounting frustration and sadness.“If only I had not been around, things would have been better,” self doubt simmered through my head.Lorenzo and I were on our toes to keep the situation from escalating while still trying to keep our heads cool and not join the war.The aftermath of the meeting was the worse. My brain was pounding with every ounce of energy it could mutter and my eyes had watered so much that I could barely see my way ba
