My boyfriend gave me away to his arch-nemesis because he lost a bet. On the same night, I was driven to his arch-nemesis’ house. Before leaving, he expressed remorse, “Anya, just bear with it for a bit. I will come to pick you up in a month.” That night, the man pinned me to the bed and started unbuttoning my shirt. As he traced his cold fingertips against my collarbone, he said, deep and seductively, “So that’s the scumbag you fell for? Why don’t you be with me instead? I can give you everything you want.” I leaned forward and kissed him right away. “Sure.”
View More“Is that so?”When Damion snapped his thumbs, two of his bodyguards showed up with a man who was bound tightly with ropes. The man looked somewhat familiar, but before I could even make out who he was, he threw himself at Noah’s feet and started bawling his eyes out.“You have to save me, Mr. Dalton!”Noah's face dropped. He proceeded to jab a kick at the man and defended himself, “I don't know this person. You’re setting me up!”I recognized the man at last. I had seen him before at Dalton Corporation, and in an instant, I connected the dots.I turned to look at Noah in disbelief and then slapped him across the face.“You scumbag! How could you do something like this?”I knew he had always been a scumbag, but I never thought he would resort to hiring a hitman. He was a vile, despicable man!Noah turned pale as he mumbled, “Anya, listen to me–”However, Damion cut him off.“Forget it, save it for the police.”Noah squirmed desperately as the bodyguards took him away.I was
I stared at him with disbelief. I couldn’t believe he said he had feelings for me.If he truly had feelings for me, why would he give me away to someone else? Why would he humiliate me for Eloise’s sake?I regarded him with an angry look and wanted nothing more than to get rid of him. “Noah, I’m with Damion now.”His smile stiffened as he said, “I don't care.”“No, you can’t have your way anymore.”We could never go back to the way we once were.He stared at me and clenched his jaw tightly before stating, “You don't want to come with me because you’ve fallen in love with him.”I eyed him icily. “And what if I have?”He clenched his fists angrily and cried out at the top of his voice, “Damion had a hand in the bet too! If you can forgive him, you should be able to forgive me, too! I was the one who met you first! I was the one who had feelings for you first!”I was shocked by the audacity he had to question me. If it weren’t for Damion, he would’ve given me to another one of hi
As if afraid that I wouldn't believe him, he suddenly tapped my nose and explained, “Do you remember giving a little boy a box of chocolates this one time when you were a kid?”I blinked, and a memory seemed to come to me in that moment.“My mother was very strict with me at the time, so she never allowed me anything sweet, not even the housemaids were allowed to get them for me. This one time, I threw a fit and went out to get it myself, but I forgot to bring any money.“That was when I saw you with a box of chocolates in hand. I wanted chocolate so badly, and I saw how reluctant you were, but you ended up giving me half anyway. I remember you telling me it was your birthday that day and that the chocolates were a gift from Noah.”It was then that I remembered getting a box of chocolates from Noah by accident on my birthday. I was so giddy at the time that I couldn’t bring myself to eat them.I did, in fact, bump into a little boy eyeing my chocolate with a sad look in his eyes,
A sharp pain stabbed through my chest when I remembered that the reason I even ended up with Damion in the first place was because of an absurd bet. It was just the kindness he had shown me during the last month that made me forget it.When Damion noticed I was getting upset, he held my hand firmly and cast a dismissive look at Noah. “You think too highly of yourself, Mr. Dalton.”Noah sneered and continued to taunt me, “Anya, he’s just playing with you. Once the honeymoon phase is over, he’ll toss you aside. I’ve seen this happen many times. Don’t delude yourself into thinking it’s real.”Damion grinned.“In that case, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed, Mr. Dalton. I’m already engaged to Anya. We’ll get married soon.”Everyone around us froze in shock.“What did he say?”“Did he just say he was going to marry Anya?”Even I couldn’t believe that a man of his significant status would marry a common girl like me.Noah was the first to come to. I could see the look of panic in hi
Noah did a double-take.When he noticed my name written on one of the displays, he cast a look of disbelief at Damion. “She’s just an employee. Why make such a fuss about her?”He realized this was a pricey arrangement, and an average person wouldn’t warrant the effort, especially not someone of my lowly stature.Damion’s eyes gleamed coldly when he sensed the mockery in Noah’s voice.“Do you think booking out the building is a problem? I would’ve picked a star from the sky if she wanted it. It’s because she deserves it.”When I heard him, my heart skipped a beat. I was stunned by the proclamation he made.Eloise eyed me bitterly. “Damion adores you, doesn’t he?”I didn’t respond. As a matter of fact, I’d noticed how wonderful Damion had been to me over the past few days.At that moment, I caught a strange glint in Noah’s eyes, as if a thought had come to him. “Is that right?” he asked, smirking, “Well, just wait and see.”With that, he left with Eloise.However, I was stil
The moment Noah saw Damion, his eyes widened in shock.Over the last few years, he had always seen Damion as his arch-nemesis, competing with him in everything.Now, seeing Damion’s arms around me, he asked coyly, “Damion, how has Anya been servicing you over the last few days?”Damion smiled suggestively.“It’s been wonderful. She has done a good job.” Noah suddenly glared at me when he heard that.I cast a confused look at him. He was the one who sent me to Damion and even made a point of telling me not to embarrass him, so why was he upset now?I noticed a subtle glower flashing across his face. Then, he noticed Eloise next to him. He clenched his jaw, concealing his rage, and forced himself to smile.“Is that so? Well, enjoy it while you can. You won’t have the chance for much longer.”Damion nodded curtly at him. “Thank you for the reminder. I will make sure to cherish the time I have with her.”Noah must have forgotten that, unlike the housemaids in his service who sig
