Apart from a slight furrow of his brow, he gave nothing else away.

My fingers tightened around the stem of my champagne glass as I moved my feet in their direction, plastering on a smile and reminding myself to keep my composure while also confidently playing my part.

“Mr. Montgomery.” My smile widened and I hoped it didn’t look too fake. I also purposefully made my voice breathy and low-toned. “I was just about to head into the gallery.”

  • Betrothed To The Billionaire Player   Chapter 80

    JadeA shiver went through me that wasn’t pleasant in the slightest.I flicked my gaze over his shoulder before looking back at him with an expression I hoped revealed nothing of my discomfort. “Um, would you mind if I stepped away for a moment? I think I see someone I know.”“Not at all.” He surprisingly stepped to the side to make way for me. “Go on ahead, Miss Bella.”I didn’t hesitate. I breezed past him and out of the gallery, finding an unoccupied spot by one of the buffet tables in the reception hall where the orchestra was now playing louder than ever.My gaze lifted to scan the dancing guests before I could help myself, hoping to see where Julian was and who he was with.To my disappointment, I caught him standing at the bar across the room with Vivienne next to him once more.They were touching this time around, Vivienne’s fingers brushing his sleeve in a familiar manner, but for some reason, he didn’t look like he was enjoying her presence beside him all that much.His shou

I also purposefully made my voice breathy and low-toned. “I was just about to head into the gallery.”“I’m glad I caught you then. I’d like to accompany you later.”I managed to hide my aversion to that while he shifted to gesture towards Julian and the older man. “For now, allow me to introduce you to a couple of my business acquaintances. Mr. Steven Chambers and Julian Davenport. We’ve had the pleasure of working together on a few projects.” He turned again towards me. “Gentlemen, this is Miss Isabella Garcia.”My stomach gave an uncomfortable little twist when Julian’s gaze met mine for a second time.“It’s a pleasure,” Mr. Chambers said, wea

  • 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

  • Betrothed To The Billionaire Player   Chapter 75

    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
