ログインAlexander's blood was boiling. He smoothed Lyra’s hair. She was shuddering and shaking like a leaf. "Whose fatherless child put a hand on my boy?" Joseph Murano yelled. His voice was loud. You could hear it from inside the office. "Who touched you, Jamie?" Joseph asked his son. Jamie started sobbing hysterically. "It was Leo Vance, Daddy. He threatened me. He pushed me to the ground and yelled at me." "Vance? Who the fuck is that?" Joseph barked. "A vermin with an unrecognizable last name dared to touch my child. Do you know how much I've put into this school? I'm one of your biggest benefactors! I built your annex and science labs!" "I know sir, I completely understand. It's unacceptable," Josh pacified him. "I want them expelled immediately. If that's not done by the end of the day, your monthly payments stop immediately. I'll convince the other parents to do same. What's the point of the kick backs if you're going to be useless Milton!" The door swung open. Josh Milton,

Elara wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. She pulled him closer. She did not want to think about the past. She did not want to think about Vivienne or the company. She only wanted him.Alexander lifted her higher onto the kitchen counter. His hands were warm on her skin. He kissed her neck, moving down to her collarbone. Elara let out a soft gasp. The sound made him growl."I missed you so much," Alexander whispered against her skin. "Every single day, Lara.""Don't talk," she said. Her voice was breathless. "Just touch me, Alex."He obeyed. He reached down and unbuttoned her blouse. His fingers were shaking slightly. He pushed the fabric off her shoulders. Elara unbuckled his belt. She pushed his heavy suit jacket off his arms. It fell to the floor next to the broken glass. They did not care about the mess.Alexander looked at her body. His eyes were dark with desire. "You are so beautiful," he murmured."Alex, please," she begged. She felt an ache inside her that had been ther
The workday was over. Elara's mind was reeling. She was completely torn. This whole revenge plot seemed so easy on paper. But now that she was actually in it, it was extremely tasking.She walked toward the executive elevator, needing to escape. As she stepped inside and the doors began to close, a hand suddenly thrust between them. The sensors clicked, and the doors slid back open.Elara gasped, completely surprised.Alexander stood there. He was the last person she wanted to see. She was already so confused, and being in a closed space with him wasn't going to help her. He stepped inside, and the doors shut behind him."Lara," he called out softly.She rolled her eyes, turning her back to him. "Have we gotten to the point where we can't even have a simple conversation?" he asked.She shook her head, staring at the floor indicators. "I don't need to talk to you, Mr. Sterling. It's after work hours."Without a word, Alexander reached over and pressed the emergency stop button. The ele

Elara arched a brow. "What threat, Alex? What are you talking about?" Her frustration grew with his silence. "What are you on about? Say something. I'm losing my patience."Alexander pinched the bridge of his nose. He sighed deeply. "Forget I said anything.""I'm not going to forget! You can't just—"She was cut off immediately. Lyra peeked her little head out of the car window. "Mummy, can we go now? Leo says he has a headache."Lyra looked at Alexander with wide, hopeful eyes. "Can our new daddy come?""He's not your—" Elara stopped in her tracks. Lying to her kids was getting harder. Their father was standing right in front of them. She looked at Leo’s pale face and Lyra’s hopeful one. "Okay," she said, throwing her hands up in defeat. Alexander smiled. He cocked his head to the side. "Are you sure?" he asked playfully."Get in before I change my mind!" Elara climbed into the back seat with the kids. She chucked the keys at him. "You’re our chauffeur for the day."He caught them
