BILLIONAIRE'S LIES BILLIONAIRE'S LIES CHAPTER 473
Silence within the car filled the air between them. The engine hummed, and alone, it was the only thing heard, a constant reminder of the widening gap between her past and present. Jenny was stiff, her eyes fixed on the blurred lights of the city passing the window, her hands steepled together in her lap.Saben looked at her, his eyes piercing but expressionless. "You don't have to pretend with me."Jenny's jaw clenched. "Pretend about what?""That you're okay." His voice sliced through the quiet. "I noticed how you stared when he entered. JM Reese."Her breath caught, and she jerked her head hard toward him. "You saw?"Saben's lips curled into something that wasn't really a smile. "Hard not to. You were solid, but your eyes… they betrayed you.Jenny closed her eyes tightly, her forehead against the chilled glass of the window. "I thought I was finished feeling this. I thought I could confront him without. shattering." Her voice shook, wavering at the edges. "Then I saw him with anoth

The vehicle moved forward, the gentle purr of the engine harmonizing with the quiet sound of jazz music coming from the speakers. The city lights flashed by, a blur of colors against the rich blue of the night sky. Within the vehicle, the atmosphere was different still electric, yet curiously soothing. Saben had been quiet for a moment, his eyes on the road ahead, his hand firm on the wheel. But Jenny felt the strength of his presence behind her, like a gentle force alongside her, even as there still lingered an unmistakable tension between them.Jenny cast a sidelong glance at him. He was intense, his jaw clenched in that manner she had seen before, but his expression had moved from the professional seriousness to something less severe, something more. genuine. She could sense the concern in the manner in which he was standing, the manner in which his stance subtly altered as she readjusted in her chair, as if he were doing so unconsciously to create space for her, as if he knew prec

Saben's hand stayed close to hers, a quiet promise that she wasn't on her own. But her heart still raced in her chest, still shaken by the meeting with JM. And as they approached her car, her eyes flashed sideways just in time to see the familiar figure of JM Reese standing by his car, his new girlfriend Eva Ross by his side.Her breath caught, her heart missing a beat when their eyes met across the distance of the parking lot. For a moment, a fleeting one, time stood still. It was not merely the physical distance between them that left her feeling far away, but also the emotional gap that had grown in the intervening time. The bond they once shared now felt like a lifetime away, yet the attraction she still felt was unmistakable.JM's expression was impassive, yet a glint of something flickered in his eyes something she couldn't pin down. Regret? Sorrow? She didn't know. His eyes lingered slightly longer than they needed to, and she could feel the beat of her heart accelerate, a coll

Saben's touch on her shoulder was a gentle anchor amidst the turmoil of feelings raging within her. The stress of the night, the unplanned run-in with JM, and the old wound festering inside of her were all oppressive weights that crushed her. But Saben's words—plain, but genuine—had the soothing quality.Jenny breathed slowly, attempting to calm her nerves. She had no idea what had caused him to be so thoughtful, but finally, after hours, she felt like she could catch her breath. The stress she'd been holding on to seemed to lift, just a little."Thank you," she whispered, her tone gentle, more fragile than she'd meant it to be. "I didn't think I'd survive the night without. you know, losing it."Saben offered her a small smile, a flash of compassion in his eyes. "You don't need to pretend with me, Jenny. You don't need to hold everything together all the time. I understand. I really do."Jenny swallowed hard, the lump in her throat constricting. She couldn't think when she had ever h

As the event started to slow down, the hum of chatter gradually receded into the background, leaving Jenny by herself with her churning thoughts. The tension between her and JM previously had been sufficient to keep her mind engaged, but now that the night was winding down, she could feel the burden of the unspoken words suspended between them. She didn't know what to make of him anymore. His words his unexpected return in her life left her with a combination of anger, confusion, and something she could not define.Jenny had hardly finished adjusting the glass of wine in her hand when she saw Eva Ross moving towards her. Jenny automatically stiffened, a flutter of unease creeping into her chest. She hadn't talked to Eva since the two women had met earlier in the evening, and she hadn't been anticipating having to deal with her again least of all amid the turmoil in her head.Eva's eyes were frosty, her pace deliberate as she walked towards Jenny. The woman was unmistakable, her beauty

As the evening drew on, Jenny forced herself to drive the uneasy ball of tension in her belly to the very back of her mind. The business congress raged on, filled with talk and deal-making, as she stood beside Saben, smiling graciously as they greeted different associates with handshakes and niceties. She maintained her facade, her smile unwavering, even as turmoil raged in her inner self.Saben saw the difference in her. She was subdued, her posture uncomfortably straight, but she stood with the dignity that was hers. Each time she looked across the room and spotted JM Reese with his new girlfriend, Eva Ross, the anguish in her eyes was briefly revealed. But blink, and then her attention would divert, never letting her weakness be visible.Saben, always so observant, leaned in a little bit farther. "You're doing fine," he whispered, his voice only for her. "You don't have to keep it a secret, you know."Jenny flashed a brief look at him but remained silent. She couldn't let herself l
