After breakfast, and round two on the kitchen counter–I could barely catch my breath.

My muscles ache in the best way. My skin still buzzed from Liam’s touch. I was ready to curl back into his bed, let the morning melt into the afternoon, and pretend the outside world didn’t exist.

But Liam had other plans.

“Get ready,” he said, pulling on a pair of grey sweats, the drawstring hanging loose around his hips. “We’re going out.”

I blinked from where I still sat on the counter, his oversized shirt

  • His Private Chef   CHAPTER 190

    Jason and I tell each other almost everything. Maybe because it’s just the two of us.So I told him about Adrian. How it started, how it went wrong, and where we were now. When I finished, he went quiet.Then he smiled. “You never miss a chance to get into trouble.”I frowned. “Did you even listen? I didn’t know who he was at the start.”Jason shrugged. “Still doesn’t change the outcome.”I rolled my eyes. He leaned back, amused. “The relationship coach with relationship problems. Interesting.”“Jason,” I warned.He ignored me. “I’m the fake boyfriend. You’re the two-weeks girlfriend. We’re doing great.”“Jason, stop it,” I groaned.He chuckled, then his expression shifted as his gaze moved past me for a second before returning. “Why did it have to be a Valecrest?” he asked.I sighed. “I know. It’s messy. But I guess life doesn’t care how complicated things get.”He studied me. “Do you really love him?”I hesitated. “It doesn’t matter. We’re ending things anyway.”Jason didn’t push it

  • His Private Chef   CHAPTER 189

    Jason and I worked side by side in Dad’s office.He handled a few things Dad had left for him, speaking to him briefly on the phone now and then, getting updates and instructions. Watching him, I understood why Dad trusted him enough to leave things in his hands. Jason was good.Really good.I found myself wondering how long it would take me to get to that level.Close to lunch, I nudged him. “Teach me something in negotiations.”He glanced at me, then pulled out a file. “Alright. We’ll both study this, then negotiate based on it.”We went through it separately first. When we started, I thought I was doing well—holding my ground, pushing back where it mattered.Until I wasn’t.Jason turned it around so smoothly I didn’t even see it coming. One second I thought I had him, the next, I was completely cornered. I just stared at him, stunned.He leaned back, laughing.“You crook,” I accused.“It’s business.”“How did you even do that?”“One of the perks of starting early and having a fathe

  • His Private Chef   CHAPTER 188

    I woke up the next morning to a good morning text from Adrian, cheesy and over the top, very him.As I read through it, a smile slowly formed on my face. I’d agreed to the two weeks. To be his girlfriend again.In high spirits, my day started on a good note. I got out of bed and headed straight to the bathroom. By the time I was done and came back out, another message had come in.Adrian: Where’s my good morning text? I want to start my day right too.I shook my head, smiling as I typed one back.A few seconds after it delivered, another message came in.Adrian: Something’s missing.Me: What?Adrian: Check how mine ended.I scrolled up and saw it.I love you.I hovered over the screen, then typed back.Me: I love you too.His reply came in immediately—hearts, kisses, entirely too many emojis.I dropped my phone on the bed and went to my closet to get ready for work.When I stepped out, I headed to the dining area, expecting the usual, but did a double take when I saw my brother seated

    I wrapped up quickly and left Dad’s office.A few minutes later, I pulled up and saw Adrian standing a few steps away, exactly where he said he would be.He smiled when he saw me. I parked, and he opened the passenger door and got in.I turned to him. “What is your problem? Why are you so determined to get me into trouble?”He didn’t answer. He just sat there, looking at me, smiling.“What’s funny?”“I’m just happy. You’re talking to me. Even if you’re yelling at me.”I rubbed my forehead. “What do you want? Be quick.”“I want to take you out on a date.”I stared at him. “Are you actually insane? I’m not going anywhere with you. There’s no way I’m risking being seen outside with you.”“You didn’t even ask where we’re going.”I gave him a look. He reached over, typed his address into the map, and leaned back. “Drive.”I let out a short laugh. “No.”He fastened his seatbelt and shut his eyes. “It’s fine. I don’t mind sleeping here, not when you’re here.”I glanced at him, then sighed an

    Dad’s assistant walked in carrying a huge bouquet of roses.My eyes widened immediately.Damn you, Adrian.I took it from him. “Thank you.”I set it on the desk and pulled out the card.I bet you’re cussing me out right now for this. But you’re the one who fell for a stubborn man.I caught myself smiling before I could stop it.You always tease me about not joking with my money, but if there’s one thing I don’t joke with, it’s you.My fingers tightened around the card.I’m not letting you end us. I disagree with every word you said about us being over. I’m still your boyfriend, and you’re still my girlfriend. So you might want to start telling any man who comes close that you’re taken, because I’m already telling anyone who cares to listen that I have a girlfriend.I shook my head, a soft breath leaving me. “You’re a crazy man.”And if you don’t? I’ll consider it cheating.My lips parted in disbelief.I’ll keep disturbing you until you talk to me again. I hope you love the flowers.~M

    I gently pulled his hands off my waist. “Adrian… no.”I took a step back. His expression changed instantly, raw hurt flashing through.Up close, I noticed the dark circles under his eyes. He hadn’t been sleeping. If it weren’t for makeup, mine wouldn’t look any better.“Sophia, please… just let me explain.”I exhaled slowly. “This isn’t the right place. Anyone could walk out here. And honestly…” I paused, forcing the words out, “your explanation won’t change anything.”“Sophia, please,” he insisted.I let out a breath, crossing my arms. “Okay. Go on.”He ran a hand through his hair, frustrated.“I had no bad intentions toward you. I swear. When we met, it was a coincidence. I didn’t know who you were. I didn’t know whose daughter you were.”I held his gaze. “And when you found out?”He hesitated, then shook his head. “I couldn’t tell you.”“Couldn’t?” I echoed.“I didn’t want to lose you,” he said quietly. “I was already drawn to you. I wanted to get close to you. And I knew the momen

    After Linda walked away from the proposal, the dinner continued, but nothing felt the same.Conversations turned shallow. The laughter was hollow. Even the string quartet played like they were counting the minutes. Eventually, people began to retreat one by one, whispering farewells, clutching half

    When we got back to the villa, everyone slowly disappeared, either to their rooms or to unwind in their own corners. I made it almost all the way to my door before I paused.The bracelet.Still tucked at the bottom of my tote bag, hidden like a secret I wasn’t sure I should share. If I didn’t give

    I stayed in his arms longer than I should have. Maybe minutes. Maybe hours. I didn’t care.My cheek rested against Liam’s chest, his heartbeat finally matching the rhythm of mine–steady, real, calming after the chaos.His chin rested on my head, and he pressed the softest kiss into my hair.Another

    The car slowed as we approached the main estate, and suddenly the ocean breeze felt heavier. It was like it carried expectations instead of salt. Through the tinted window, I caught my first glimpse of the place Sophia had referred to as “the real Black compound.”This wasn't just a compound. It wa
