Betrothed To The Billionaire Player Chapter 78
JadeRecognizing the woman who had interrupted my first date with Julian and caused our first major fight put my mood in a very terrible state.She looked gorgeous in a way that anyone could tell came to her naturally. Her dress was a deep emerald green with an elegant, off-the-shoulder neckline. The excess fabric swept the floor, and the color matched that of her mask perfectly—with its dramatic arrangement of blue and green feathers and gold crystals scattered around the edges.But seeing her wasn’t the worst part.No.The worst part was that the man next to her wasn’t her husband.The man next to her was Julian.Even with his velvet mask with black-on-black embossed detailing and the fact it was only his profile I could see, I would recognize him anywhere.They were standing together, not necessarily touching but they looked so coordinated that it was hard not to think they’d arrived as a pair.“Problem?” Maxwell’s deeply resonant voice sounded next to my ear.I flinched, putting s

JadeI chose a black lace mask with delicate crystal detailing.The moment I slid it over my face, I suddenly felt invincible, like I could walk on water, glide on clouds, and bring every man no matter their status down to their knees.That last theory was brought to the test as soon as I introduced myself as Mr. Gavin Worth’s guest, dropped off my card, and stepped into the grand reception hall where the rest of the guests mingled.Stopping at the raised threshold of the entrance, it felt as though every eye in the room lifted to gaze at me, conversations hushing and even the orchestra falling into a sudden lull.At least that was the way I imagined it.In reality, only a few heads turned my way, but I could read the curious interest in their expressions, wondering who I was and why I had come alone.That was enough for me.I slowly descended the stairs, keeping my back straight and my eyes forward.A server approached the moment I was on ground level and offered me champagne.I took

Jade(Present time)Julian never kissed me again of course, accidentally or otherwise.In a way, it seemed like history was only repeating itself.This was a similar situation. I had almost pleaded to go with him, he had refused, and now I was going without his permission anyway.So it was likely the night might either end up with him kissing me, or me finding myself in some sort of embarrassing situation.I was betting on the latter. But it still wasn’t enough to sway me into changing my mind.This was happening. I was going after Julian to find out whatever it was he was hiding come what may. And so it was all that occupied my mind for the rest of the month, up until the day of the ball.The relationship between me and Julian had neither improved or declined. He still came back home every night, but he barely looked my way, much less spoke to me.He had also taken to eating breakfast and dinner once in a while, much to Hazel’s delight, since she was always eager to serve him, even m

JadeThe shirtless guy looked down in confusion, brows raising before he hollered, “Whose little sister snuck out with them?”Cringing in embarrassment, I ducked my face and hoped the music was loud enough that he wasn’t heard by too many people.I looked up after the moment had passed and the guy had moved on, letting out a breath of relief when I saw no one was paying any extra attention to me.Just as I looked around again, my eyes abruptly clashed with surprised gray ones from across the landscaped garden.Julian was standing next to a cluster of brightly colored umbrellas, with a girl that wasn’t Katherine pressed up against his side and kissing his ear.A shiver of disgust rolled through me when I saw tongue, but that was quickly overshadowed by the leap of my heart as Julian’s brows lowered and his mouth pulled into a tight, disapproving line.Trying to play it off, I waved with a wide grin, but the next thing I knew, I was toppling backwards into the pool after someone pushed

JadeI couldn’t believe I was still going ahead with this absurd plan of mine.But it wasn’t about seducing Julian any longer. It was about finding a concrete reason to finally be able to leave him for good.After last night when Gavin dropped me off because Sierra had insisted she didn’t want me walking alone so late even though the streets in our little neighborhood were safe, and then Julian had confronted me like somehow I was the one with all the faults, that was when I made up my mind.The chance had practically fallen into my lap and I now had my own invitation, so the temptation was simply too strong to resist.He didn’t want me to go, which could only mean one thing—he was taking someone else. Or, he was planning on meeting another woman at the masquerade ball.Everyone had been warning me that he was definitely cheating, considering the fact he had never touched me, and now I was going to go with my head for once and confirm whether or not there was truly no hope for us as a

Julian Wondering whether or not she knew she was exposed pushed what little patience I had left to its limit. “No.” I managed to keep from snapping. “You can go to sleep. I’ll handle this.” “Okay,” she replied in a small voice. “Goodnight sir.” My attention was already back on my phone as she left, wracking my brain over who else I could call that would be able to give me answers. I landed on nobody, realizing with no little amount of frustration that I knew next to nothing about Jade and her life. I could always call Vince as a last resort to send out a few of his men and track her down, but I was trying to still remain levelheaded, hoping she had just gone out to the convenience store or something and would be back soon. “Mr. Davenport?” I turned my neck at Hazel’s voice, my forehead creasing with a frown at the fact that she was still standing there. “I just wanted to let you know I think she might have gone to her friend’s place.” I turned fully, my attention sharpening a
