I Stole A Kiss From A Billionaire 218
KAYLA'S POVI dropped the ninth- or wasn't the tenth- top I had tried on the floor and huffed. I moved to the mirror and turned sideways as I inspected my body.Apart from my now bulging stomach, I didn't seem to add on much weight. So why then were my clothes not fitting anymore?I smiled when arms wrapped around me from behind, his hands moving under my belly to act as a support. I sighed and relaxed into his arms, feeling relief flood through me.“Are you okay?" Desmond kissed my cheeks before looking around the room. “Can't decide what to wear? It's just casual dinner with everyone else, you can put on a sack if you want. No one would care." “I can't do that. Your father hasn't approved of me yet, you know, especially after my father's crimes came to light." My lips pursed as my mind threatened to bring up memories from three months ago."You don't have to worry about him. He has been that way for years, trust me, his stuck-up behavior has nothing to do with you or your father.”

LESLIE'S POVMy mouth almost dropped to the floor as I watched them stare at each other. Saint grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him, creating a free pathway for Father to reach her.“Ruby." His hand stretched out before he thought better of it and pulled it back to his side. “How have you been? It's been a very long time." “Has it?" She gripped her head, her eyes darting around. “Has it?" I hurried to her and pulled her hand away. “Mum, are you okay? Do you remember anything?" She held my hands, her eyes glazed over. “I…I don't know. What is this? Why do I feel like this?" I hugged her to my chest and turned back to look at Father. “I think you should leave. I told you this was a bad idea.”"I only wanted to see her and I've gotten my wish. I don't want to cause more trouble for both of you so I will leave now. Thank you for allowing me to see her, Leslie.” He cast his gaze to the floor and my shoulders sagged with guilt.However, I cared more about my mum's health than my gui

LESLIE'S POVTHREE MONTHS LATER I stood close to the arrival gate, my legs starting to bounce as several people walked past me, yet no sign of my father. I glanced at my wristwatch and sighed, this was the estimated time for him to arrive and I got here early too. We couldn't have missed each other, right?“Leslie?" My head snapped up to see him in front of me, the waiting line separating us. “It is really you." I blinked back the tears that threatened to spill as I looked him over. He was lean and taller than I remembered and he had on a beanie, making him look younger. He had been gone for almost six months but he looked better than when he left, even with the weight loss.“Are…are you okay?” I had so many things to ask him but that summarized it. Was he healthy? Was his cancer gone? Was he going to stay alive?He grinned and nodded. “I wouldn't be here otherwise." "That's great.” I nodded and started to walk down the line. "I offered to be the one to pick you up. I hope you don

SAINT’S POVMy hands tightened around her waist as I said it out loud. Ever since I found out, I had kept it to myself. It would bring immense pain to everyone, especially to Selene herself. The same man she has called Uncle all her life, paid for her to be kidnapped and assaulted and perhaps killed if we didn't find her fast enough.I couldn't tell her something so cruel.Leslie pulled away, her mouth opened. “Uncle Sage? Why? How could it be him? If you had told me it was Aunt Tiara, I would have believed you because it looked like she was the one forcing him to turn his back on his family." "It was all a facade,” I chuckled harshly. "Aunt Tiara is only like that because of everything he drilled into her head. In the end, she's also a victim.”"Is that why you're keeping him locked up? Is he aware you've figured out his crimes?”"No one else knows but you.” I faced her. "I don't know how I'm supposed to break the news to everyone else because that's not the only thing he's guilty o

SAINT’S POVI stared at my clasped hands as awkward silence stretched in the room. I was not willing to start talking first and Julian didn't seem to know how to start either.Now that it was all in the light, every single sign that I had missed came rushing back to me.Back then, Selene always behaved strangely whenever he was around but I thought she was only uncomfortable. After she was kidnapped too, Julian was so worried and I was grateful to him. I had no idea his concern was not platonic at all.All these years, whenever I brought up Selene, he always seemed overly attentive. Now, it all made sense.I chuckled and gripped my hair tightly. “Both of you didn't even try to hide it, I was the blind one.”"Saint—-" “It must have been funny to you when I told you to be her bodyguard." I glared at him. "You must have thought I was stupid appointing you to protect her when I should have protected her from you.”"Will you listen to me at all?”"What use is that?” I turned away. "You kn

TRIGGER WARNING (last time, I promise)LESLIE'S POV“Saint, you need to freaking stop!" Selene stood in front of Julian when he tried to hit him again."Stay out of this." Saint clenched his jaw. “This is between Julian and I." "I'm not doing that. I cannot stand by and watch you continue to hit him when he has done nothing wrong.” She stood her ground and my heart swelled with pride. Selene has never been one to back down anyways.“He has done nothing wrong?" Saint chuckled and looked at Julian. “Is that what you think too? That you did nothing wrong?”Julian wiped the blood off his bursted lips and straightened up. “You can continue to hit me until you're appeased. I have nothing to say in my defense." Saint gripped his hair and turned away, the veins on his forehead protruding. I stepped closer to him and removed his hands from his head. “Can't you accept them?" I whispered. His lips pressed together in a frown as he glanced at me so I slammed mine shut. Julian and Selene would
