I couldn't believe Louis still remembered his promise to me.

This had to be bribery.

My hand went through the gown. It was so elegant and beautiful.

I took it upstairs into my room.

I wore a gown.

It was a leafy green body con gown. It had a V -shaped neckline and had shining crystals. The waist side cinches perfectly accentuating my figure.

I looked at myself in the mirror and was wowed.

Beautiful clothes have a way of bringing out your beauty.

I felt amazing already.

I thought about Jake.

  • MERCILESS SEDUCTRESS    CHAPTER 39

    039LOUIS’S POVThe sun had begun to disappear when the announcement came that the day’s main sessions were approaching their conclusion.People were already gathering their documents.Some exchanged final cards.Others made arrangements for dinner meetings.I was speaking with Diego when he suddenly looked toward the entrance.His entire expression changed.His eyes widened.Then he smiled.“That’s my father.”I followed his gaze.An older man had just entered the venue.He carried himself with the quiet confidence of someone who didn’t need to announce his importance.People seemed to recognize him.Several individuals greeted him as he walked inside.Diego looked genuinely excited.“Louis, come with me.”“Where?”“I’m introducing you to him.”I barely had time to respond before Diego placed a hand lightly on my shoulder and guided me through the crowd.“Diego,” I said, laughing slightly, “you don’t have to drag me.”“I’ve been wanting you two to meet.”We finally reached the older

  • MERCILESS SEDUCTRESS    CHAPTER 38

    038LOUIS’S POVI had never been good at keeping secrets.Not the kind that weighed heavily on the chest.Not the kind that changed the way you looked at someone.And certainly not the kind that involved Ann.Yet, as I stood alone in the elevator that morning, watching the numbers slowly climb toward the floor where the conference rooms were located, I knew there was one secret I was now carrying whether I liked it or not.Jake was cheating on her.I had seen it with my own eyes.There was no misunderstanding.That day at the park it didn't look like he was but my mind seemed to go back that day.Maybe this had been on.Now there was no room for excuses.No innocent explanation that could erase what I had witnessed in the hotel hallway.The image of Jake with that woman was still fresh in my mind. Every time I remembered it, the anger returned with frightening speed.My fist had already found his face once.I had nearly lost control completely.I wasn’t sure what could happen next.Bu

  • MERCILESS SEDUCTRESS    CHAPTER 37

    037Ann’s POVI sat quietly by the window, staring at the phone resting on the table in front of me.For several minutes, I had been going through the same thought.Crescent Company.The invitation to speak at their upcoming event had come as a surprise. It was a wonderful opportunity, and under normal circumstances, I would have been accepted without thinking twice.But lately, nothing in my life felt normal.The voice of Jane and Claire instructing me that I had to accept played in my head.I picked up my phone and opened it. I was about to put a call across when my phone suddenly rang.I answered immediately.“Hello?”“Good morning, Mrs. Laurent. I hope I’m not disturbing you.”I straightened slightly.“No, not at all. Who is this?”“This is Amelia from Crescent Company. I’m calling regarding the speaking invitation we sent and called you about some days back. We wanted to confirm whether you’d be available for the event.”Ann glanced toward the window.For a moment, she hesitated.

    036Louis’s POVThe corridor was silent now.Too silent.A few minutes ago, it had been filled with shouting, accusations, and the sound of my fist connecting with Jake’s face.I stood inside breathing heavily, staring at my knuckles.They hurt.But not nearly as much as the anger burning inside me.Jake had deserved the punch and even more than just one punch.At least, that was what I kept telling myself.The nerves of that day.Once again I realised why I never liked him.I was sure Sasha and Bianca were both outside still confused about the outburst because I hadn't heard any other movement.I opened my door and I was right they were both standing there still looking stunned.“Boss,” Bianca called out softly to me.“We need to talk.” I said looking straight at Sasha.She fidgeted a little.“I believe you already know what the conversation is going to be about.” I said to her,She nodded.“Let’s go to the bar downstairs.” I said to them both.Sasha stood several feet away, looking

    035Jake's POVI hurried back to the hotel to meet my baby. I wanted her safely secured in my room.I had even ensured to look towards where Jake was and had seen him pretty occupied.It was my chance to make my move.I texted my baby,“See you soon.”I walked towards Sasha. She was talking to some ladies.I guess she had made quite a few acquaintances.“I would be leaving now. I have an important task to complete.” I said to her.Sasha immediately got into her professional mood.“Okay sir, I'm ready to leave.” She said to me,“No need for that Sasha. Take your time. It isn't for business. You can come to the hotel when you're done from here.”She immediately grinned and said,“Thank you sir.”Giving Jake one final look I was out of the building in no distant time.I got to my hotel and gave my baby a call.“What room are you in?”I asked her.“oh! you're here already!” She said, I could feel the excitement in her voice.“Room 1567 baby, hurry up! Dinner’s getting cold.” She purred.My

    034Louis POVI couldn't believe Rose could actually come to Spain as well. She really was a pain in my neck.After the stunt she had pulled back at home. She was the last person I expected showing up in my face.We had had a short conversation and my intention was to walk out on her and create a good distance between both of us.She was immediately on her heels as she walked fast towards I and Bianca.“Didn't you get a restraining order?!” Before I could even speak Bianca’s voice overshadowed mine.Rose stopped mid stride.“And you can't speak to me like that! Are you really going to let her do that,Louis?!” Rose snapped.We started getting some stares.I was already furious but tried my best to maintain my cool.“You should apologise to her.” I said calmly to Bianca.“Okay sir.” Bianca replied.“I'm sorry about the outburst ma'am.” Bianca replied in her professional tone.“Are you happy now? Please stay out of my way.” I said to Rose then turned and continued walking away.Some peop
