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

JULIAWe went back and found everyone playing volleyball by the swimming pool. One of the girls tossed the ball to the guys on the opposite side, but none of them hit back. A rich laugh came out from Adam at the sight of his friends that seemed to be on the losing team. I just loved seeing him like this... so carefree and so normal.“Would you like to join them?”He looked at me, still smiling. “How about you?”“I’m fine. You should join them.”He brought my hand to his lips. “I know how this is new to you, but I want you to join us.”“You are right. This is new to me, and you already said that I’m not ready. I’m giving myself a little time.”He nodded, agreeing. “Of course, you’ll feel that way. But I’ve never brought anyone here. Just you.”“That’s good enough then.”“When I told you that I’m falling for you, I mean it. I want you to be part of this,” he said softly.What he said struck me again. “Honestly, I just can’t tell you that I feel the same. I feel we are rushing things.”I

JULIA“Open the door, Julia. Please.” I didn’t know how long he had been knocking on the door the next morning, but I managed to leave it unanswered. I was still so mad; I didn’t want to see his face. All I wanted was to go home.“I’m so sorry,” he said. “Let’s talk, and please hear me out.”I swallowed hard as I felt my stomach growling in extreme hunger, but my pride was eating me. It was the only thing I had. I wanted to chastise him for not being honest with me. I wanted him to rot in front of the door for making me wear his wife’s swimsuit. It was so sick.“Just get mad at me and face me, but not like this,” he spoke again. “I’m tired of looking at the door. Please come out. You’re driving me crazy—Shut up, Edward! I told you not to bring Vivian here.”“I know, but give her some time. I’m sorry, man,” Edward said calmly, then I heard him walk away.Adam knocked again. “Julia, please talk to me.”I grabbed the pillows and covered them on my ears. Did he think saying he’s sorry was

JULIAIt was an arranged marriage,” he began, then wiped his mouth with a napkin. We were sitting now at The Bistro.“What happened?” I said, then ate a portion of my orecchiette.“I was depressed back then because of Demi and Henry, and my father was ill as well. Bianca is the daughter of a family friend. They wanted us to get married for business, of course, and no questions asked—I married her. She was sweet and responsible, and she cared for me. Those were the times, I thought she was different. Though it was my father’s last wish, I married her because she also needed my help. She was broken like me. Her boyfriend left her when she was pregnant with his child. She couldn’t tell anyone about it.”“Let me guess, you told them the baby was your child?”He curtly nodded.“Oh, God. That’s so heroic of you.” Every day this man never ceased to shock me with his revelations, and my heart sank knowing that he actually loved her. “Then what happened? Your relationship sounds like it was wor
