I wore a simple white tee paired with black jeans and sneakers. Today is the day I would be accompanying Sylus to his work and I couldn’t be more excited.

“You do have a thing with white tee and jeans, don’t you? You used to love wearing dresses before,” Sylus commented as soon as he saw me.

I shrugged, feeling a bit of self-conscious, “I guess I just feel more comfortable in these kinds of clothing.”

Sylus chuckled, his eyes scanning me up and down, “You look good, though. Maybe too good for a day in the office,” he said. His voice was low and smooth.

I raised an eyebrow, “What do you mean?”

He stepped closer, his voice dropping into a whisper, “I mean, you’re going to distract me.”

I moved away from him and averted my gaze, “L-let’s just get going.”

Sylus grinned, his eyes sparkling with amusement. “Alright, let’s go now.”

Why does he have to say something so cheesy every single time? It’s so annoying.

“Why are they following us?” I asked Sylus when I noticed some black car

    I wore a white formal dress and tied my hair up for my meeting with Mr. Hermano. Sylus smiled at me as soon as I stepped out of our hotel room. "I wouldn't think twice on hurting Mr. Hermano if he ever tries to hit on you because of how fucking hot you look in that dress of yours," he said, looking me up and down. "You always say that." "Because it's the truth, babe. You look good in everything you wear. You look better without wearing anything, though," he whispered, grinning at me. I rolled my eyes at him. "We have to go now. Mr. Hermano must be waiting for us already." Sylus chuckled before he finally opened the car door and guided me inside. *** "Remember not to be so nervous, babe.You're going to crush it with Mr. Hermano," Sylus said to me when we reached the company building. I smiled, trying to play it cool. "Thanks, I'm feeling pretty confident," I said, trying to sound casual. Sylus chuckled, wrapping his arms around me. "I know you are, babe. That's why

    I knelt down to give Natalia a big hug, smiling brightly. "Be good for Grandma and Grandpa, okay?" I said, trying to sound cheerful.Natalia grinned, hugging me back. "I want to stay with Grandma and Grandpa, Mommy. They said we can go to the zoo tomorrow!"I chuckled, feeling a mix of relief and a little sadness. "That's great, sweetie. Have fun with Grandma and Grandpa. And be a good girl, okay? Always obey them."Sylus smiled, ruffling Natalia's hair. "We'll be back before you know it, sweetheart. And we'll bring you lots of presents from Madrid.""Yey! Take care of yourselves, mommy and daddy. I promise I will be a good girl until you come back!""That's my baby," Sylus said as he leaned down and kissed Natalia's hair.Luke, standing beside his parents, caught my eye and gave me a subtle nod. He know what I am planning to do in Madrid, and for sure, he doesn't like it, but he will just let me do it, anyway. Just so I could finally leave and disappear."Sylus, Charlotte, take care

    Sylus's words sent a jolt of surprise through me, like a sudden spark of electricity. "Babe, we have to fly to Madrid next week," he said, his eyes gleaming with excitement. My eyes widened, and I felt my heart skip a beat. "O-Only the two of us?" I stammered, trying to process the news. Sylus nodded, a confident smile spreading across his face. "Yes. It's about the expansion of the company. I need you there with me. I am actually planning on assigning you to be the one to talk to Mr. Hermano. This would really be a big deal, babe. You have to make it a success." A wave of anxiety washed over me, but I tried to play it cool. "A-Are you sure about that?" I asked, trying to sound casual. Sylus's expression turned reassuring, and he took a step closer to me. "Of course. I know how smart and good you are. For sure he would say yes in no time. Don't you want to do it?" I felt a flutter in my chest as he looked at me with those piercing eyes. "O-Of course, I want to. I-I mean, y-y

  • Mafia King's Substitute Wife   CHAPTER 54: AS CHARLOTTE

    As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, I saw Sylus already lying on the bed while reading a book. I was surprised when he suddenly looked at me. "Come here, babe." For some reason, I started feeling nervous as if Sylus was going to do something I wouldn't like. "Come here," he repeated, patting the space beside him. Why do I suddenly feel awkward now that I'm going to sleep beside him again? Shouldn't I feel comfortable already? I took a deep breath as I sat down on the bed, still thinking of a good reason to avoid sleeping beside him tonight. "Come on, babe. Don't be shy now," I almost screamed when I suddenly felt Sylus' hand on my arm. I was about to struggle, but then he suddenly pulled me to the bed, making me lay down beside him. "S-Sylus, what are you doing?" I whispered, my brows furrowed as I looked at him. He grinned, wrapping his arms around me, "Why don't you just lay down beside me? Don't tell me it is that day again?" "W-What day?" "The day you become

    "Where did you sleep last night? that was the first thing that Sylus asked me the moment I stepped inside his office. "I-I slept at Luke's place," I replied, trying to sound casual. He raised an eyebrow as if he wasn't believing what I just said, then he stood up without taking his eyes off me. "Charlotte, you just said you were going to your friend's house and you didn't come home last night I was so worried about you. Even Natalia was so worried she was crying the whole night thinking that you might have vanished again. Did you even think about that?"Damn it.I lost my phone at the bar, that's why I wasn't able to text nor call Sylus. I was also too drunk that I didn't really think about that anymore. Of course, I can't tell Sylus that because he will surely suspect me."I-I'm really sorry, Sylus..I-I promise that will never happen again..."Sylus stopped in front of me. He was so tall that he was towering over me. His gaze was so sharp I could feel my heart beating so fast. "Yo

    I woke up with my head feeling so heavy. I opened my eyes and found out I was in an unfamiliar room. I immediately sat up and roamed my eyes around the room. Whose house is this? Wait, how did I even get here? Just when I was about to stand up, the door went open and I was surprised when I saw Luke Greene, still in his pajamas while holding a tray with a cup on the top of it. "You're finally awake. Drink this before you come down. It will help for your hangover," he said as he placed the cup on the side table. "T-Thanks..." Seeing Luke suddenly brought back the things I did last night. I got so drunk because I was so frustrated of getting caught by him, then I went here to beg for him to let me continue with my pretention for a month. I don't even remember if he said yes or not. "I have already prepared our breakfast, come down once you're ready or if you're already hungry." "O-Okay...Thanks." He didn't say anything after that. He just nodded his head and left. God, the wa
