JULIAI was thirty minutes late to the office. Damn, I was still so sleepy. Adam probably would get mad if he were here. Fortunately, he’s still in Florida.I went into Adam’s office to organize his desk, but I couldn’t help but think about him. When was he coming back? I was worried that I couldn’t stop thinking about him.“Julia.”“Oh, my God!” I jerked. I spun around and found Adam at the door.He’s here…He scowled at my reaction and waltzed toward his desk, and sat. “What are you doing?”“I’m re-organizing.”“Okay. Prepare the boardroom.”“Yes, sir.” I left the room quietly.Hurriedly, I went to the boardroom and asked the person in charge to clean it before the meeting. I placed the folders in front of each seat and a bottle of water. Adam strode into the room a few minutes later. He was carrying a laptop.“Set this up, Julia,” Adam ordered, then he put the laptop on the conference table. As usual, the urge electrified something strange sleeping in my chest. It’s as if the room

JULIAWhat was he up to now? I shrugged and decided to just go there to see it. I walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the upper floor. I pushed the door open as soon as I reached the rooftop, and to my surprise, sprinkles of confetti burst on my face.“Happy Birthday!”I caught my mouth in astonishment. God! Every friend I had on the executive’s floor was here. And Henry was among them holding a bouquet of red roses.Mixed emotions filled my chest. I was happy but regret instantly pinched my heart. I didn’t deserve this. I didn’t deserve Henry.“Henry…”“I’m sorry, girl! This is all we can do,” Chloe said. They stepped aside and showed me a table groomed with pristine linen covers, romantic candle lights, and two padded chairs on its sides. There was a food trolley filled with our dinner for the night as well.“Of course, we wouldn’t forget your birthday,” Bob said.“This is too much, guys. I didn’t even remember my own birthday,” I sniveled, between chuckles.“Don’t c

JULIAAdam swiftly pushed away from Demi as soon as he saw me.“Julia…”I stepped back, but I was caught by Henry, who appeared behind me. “Whoa! What the heck is this all about?”Adam walked closer, ignoring his brother’s query, and tried to reach me. “Jules… it’s not what you think.”“Don’t come any closer!” I concealed myself behind Henry.His eyes and expression were filled with regret. “Julia…”Demi stepped on the ground gracefully and tried to fix her wrinkled skirt. Then, she put back and buttoned up her blouse.“Hello, Henry,” she greeted, but she didn’t sound like herself. What the hell was going on?“Take Julia out of here,” Adam instructed. “Please…”“Why would I take her away? What’s going on here, Adam? Demi?”“Please take her away. I can explain later.”I let out a laugh of sheer disbelief. “I can leave on my own, Mr. Cavendish. I was about to leave anyway. You two should just continue what you’re doing.”Demi flashed out a grin. “Who’s this girl with you, Henry?” she as

ADAMTwo nights later, Henry visited my penthouse, but he wasn’t alone. Demi came with him. As much as I didn’t want to speak to any of them, I wanted to know what the hell happened.“Adam, just let me speak,” she pleaded. I guess she was back to being Demi again.“Say it, I don’t have a lot of time.” I strolled back into my living room and slumped on the couch. She remained standing.“I was wrong, I know. I told you I was still fighting this, but sometimes I just can’t help it.”I buried my face in my palms briefly. “What is it that you two really want to tell me?”“I’m here to say goodbye, and this time, I’m not coming back,” Demi announced, her voice filled with regret. “We’re here to end this, Adam. All of this.”“Adam,” Henry interjected. “You know how it was before. It’s unavoidable.”“And you’re fine with this, Henry?” I cracked at him instead. “That isn’t what I saw when you met her again.”“Don’t be so cruel, Adam. You know she can hear us,” he said.I stood and faced him. “J

JULIAI opened my eyes to an unfamiliar ceiling. I wasn’t in my room, and my eyes felt awfully sore. I was alone in a king-sized bed that ten people could fit into, wearing nothing but an oversized white shirt and boxers.Oh, my God! No. I immediately touched my chest. I wasn’t wearing a bra. God, just where the heck was I?The last thing I remembered was dancing with Nathan at the club—and where the hell was Megan?Is this Nathan’s place?“Good morning.”Adam suddenly came into the room. He was bare-chested, revealing his yummy hard abs, wet from the shower, and only a white towel covered his nakedness. This was the first time I saw him in this state.I gulped. “Adam,” I breathed.“Sorry to wake you up. I’m just going to get some clothes.” Then he walked to his wardrobe.“Where am I?”“In my penthouse, in my room.”My chin dropped. I couldn’t believe it. “Why am I here?”“I brought you here.”“No. I mean, how did I end up here?”Adam stared at me, then grabbed a shirt and pants from

JULIAUnder Adam’s shower…“Come on, Julia. You need to sober up. What am I going to do with you?”I felt a cold splash of water pour slowly on my back. Adam helped me get up. I was really dizzy.“The water is good... the water is good, Adam...” I enveloped my arms around his neck. His clothes were already soaked.“Please, your friend is just right outside. I’ll leave, and you wash yourself.”“No!” protested. “Stay…”He groaned, trying to lift me, so I could stand, but my knees felt like jelly. I couldn’t feel my legs.“I can’t…”“Okay. I’ll call your friend to help you.”I shook my head, no.“Don’t call her. I want you here…” I moaned. I wanted to feel him. I’d always wanted him like this. Me and him, alone.“Come on, you’ll get sick, Julia. Don’t make this hard for us.”I pressed a palm on his mouth, but he looked away.“Shh...” I hushed. “She’ll hear you.” I leaned closer. “You’re a beautiful man, Adam. Do you want to kiss me?”His jaw clenched. “Are you okay?”“But for me? You won

JULIADamon brought me to the most breathtaking place later that day. A countryside with cool air and the scent of freshly mowed grass and wood, which I never knew existed. I only saw skyscrapers in my life. I fed my eyes with the stunning, majestic acres of land, grounds of lush lawns, and trees as we drove through the driveway. It was incredible! Though someone should worry about getting lost for having such an enormous square mile estate.Back at the entrance, I remembered the arc that says, “Cavendish Manor.”“Are we far from the city?”“Not that far. This is my half-brother’s home.”I looked at him. “Your eldest brother?”“Yes. Ronald is here with his daughter, but his wife is currently out of the country.”“Wow, I always thought your world revolved around the office or your penthouse,” I remarked.“I’m a very private person, Ms. Taylor. I don’t involve anyone in my life, but of course, you’re not just anyone to me anymore.”“Sorry. I didn’t catch that.”“I’m going to introduce y

JULIAI stepped under the shower and let my brain recall everything Adam said earlier. He said he was falling for me, which was way too hard to believe. I wasn’t even sure if I felt the same. I just wanted to be with him. He was utterly irresistible, but that’s it.Also, I still worry about Henry. I didn’t know what happened to him. I was still so pissed at him for the show he pulled with Demi, but it was also right to tell him about his brother and me.After the shower, I came out of the bathroom and slipped on the fresh shirt and jeans—which Adam had provided for me before we came here. I didn’t find him in the room, but I heard voices outside the slightly opened door.“Just don’t mind her, Adam. She’ll be alright.”“She won’t, Ed—” Adam stopped as soon as he saw me.“Adam?” I called. It was Edward and Dominic he was talking to. They all looked at me as if they had just seen a ghost.“What’s going on?” I asked curiously.“Nothing,” Adam said. “Are you ready for dinner?”“Sure.” I fo
