ANMELDENChristopher's POVDesperation is often one of the worst positions to be in. It drives you utterly mad and sometimes it just leads you to do the things you'd always swear to never do.It made me beg my son's little dove but now… it's making her blow up my phone. Not that I planned not to keep my end of the deal, but only after I was sure the timing wouldn't implicate us all.I could tell the investors that it was a conspiracy and try to block out all other sources… at least gain some ground no matter how little, then give the documents to her. That way, even if Knox reacts, because of course he'll know what happened the moment he sees everything I seized from him in Yvette's hands, I'll be sure to have formed a soft landing for myself.Besides that, she grew undeniably attractive every day such that having to see her without memories of how I fucked her resurfacing was impossible. My body yearned for the same kind of pleasure. Evelyn didn't even come close to it and so I had to keep my
Yvette's POVIt's been two days since that and thankfully, Knox hadn't said or done anything. Actually, that was a wrong testament considering I had done everything in my power to make sure that we don't meet or as much as bump into each other.I also hadn't heard from Christopher and I could swear at this point… my patience with him was growing miserably thin. A part of me believed that even while he stopped pressuring me that night, whatever Evelyn said must have been grave enough to pull such a reaction out of him in the first place. Worse, he'd almost never let something as grave as that go.Everything pointed towards my cover blowing up sooner than later, so I took the risk and even called Christopher with every contact I could use to reach him.I was surprised to hear a knock on my door because in those past two days, no one had knocked. I had always gone downstairs to eat breakfast and have dinner. I hesitated before nearing the door, waiting for whoever it was to knock again s
Yvette's POV"I think I'm in love with you."His words left me frozen in place even though all of me had yearned to hear these words from his mouth someday.I watched as my palms turned pale and the hope burning in his eyes when he said them, slowly faded into an emotion or perhaps tons of emotions I didn't and couldn't understand."I'm in love with you, Yvette," he repeated, this time gentler than before while brushing the strands of hair covering my face behind my ears."Y-you… do?""I do," he answered eagerly, pushing his weight forward so we could sit even closer to each other than we were before. "I've always been… I was just so reluctant to admit it to myself… and… I… I… I don't want to regret not ever saying it," his voice was barely above a whisper now as he spoke.He brushed the corner of my lips, while gazing into my eyes.I knew this was the time for me to say something. Anything at all. What I had also been longing to say to him. Worse, what I regretted not saying even ear
Knox's POVThe instant she ran off made me realise I had made a terrible mistake by not thinking my reaction through before exploding the way that I did.I scratched my head, very desperate to fix this mess even though I didn't know how to do that.I also couldn't just walk up to her and tell her everything Evelyn said because she'd be so disappointed in me for having to believe her lies except… Evelyn has never had a reason to lie to my face like that. She and Christopher had the same habit of leaving you with the truth whether or not you were capable of handling it.I stopped pacing right in front of the painting above my headboard, instantly realising her gaze had been stuck on the paintings before she bolted.Without any plan up my sleeve. I pushed open my door and walked towards her. My feet felt a strange repulsion with each step as she sobbed behind her door and suddenly I began to wonder if I should see her.Right. At least not tonight.I also needed to clear my head and look
Yvette's POVI stumbled backwards, then looked around for any sign of Evelyn. Also, since she had a lover, I looked around for a sign of him as well. She couldn't have told Knox something detrimental if Christopher hadn't kept in touch with her."Talk to me, Yvette!" He demanded, making me jump.I shook my head, trying to find the right reaction.His hands were folded into fists and his veins were more visible thanks to how hard he was squeezing them."What happened?"He chuckled in response. The kind you hear in movies where the antagonist was trying to laugh through being screwed— dry and cold. I watched as he ran his fingers through his hair rapidly before finally slamming his fist against the bonnet."Knox!" I whimpered, instinctively moving towards him, but he yanked me off.Shocked by the weight of his anger, I lost balance and fell to the ground."I demand nothing but the damn truth from you, Yvette!" He snapped, pointing his index finger at me while his eyes looked wild. "Tell
Yvette's POV It has been a full frustrating week since I sent the pictures and audio recording to Christopher and also three weeks of not getting any response. Knox had been occupied with a lot of work, so him not finding out yet was definitely because he was too busy and I was so invested in making him remain focused on his work. He had mentioned how repeatedly I checked my phone and how he thought the habit had died down only for me to pick it up again after receiving the delivery. Of course, I told him that I was checking if our last move would have any visible impact or if anyone would show up with identical pictures to ours. He seemed to believe me, but heaven knew I was losing my mind each time my phone vibrated and his end was still dead quiet. It's one week now and I had to pretend to be calm because of course time should have washed off whatever eagerness or anxiety receiving the delivery must have built around me… "How about dinner tonight?" Knox suggested next to me. He
Yvette's POVI jerked away from him before he could ask again.“Are you—”“I'm fine,” I scrambled, trying to catch my breath. “Thanks.”With that, I ran off to the restroom. With both hands on the sink for support and my heart raging as though it was going to explode in my chest, I exhaled longer t
Yvette's POVI reluctantly went home after everything was done. Dave as always never bothered to say a word, still I didn't miss his continuous stare. He better not be expecting me to discuss what happened with the doctor because that wasn't happening!He opened my door when we got to the garage an
Yvette's POVI picked my robe as well as my panties before exiting his room. My body still felt weak, but I couldn't afford to see the look in his eyes when he woke up to see me lying next to him bare.I collapsed against my door, still feeling weird about not using protection… choosing not to pani
Yvette's POVI still couldn't believe my eyes and for what it's worth, I couldn't stop reading the instructions on the card. I read it long enough to make certain deductions I couldn't say out loud before I squirmed.How cute? I picked one sachet of condoms to closely inspect it.Mr. Ice is damn we
