MasukCHAPTER 63Sebastian burst out laughing before giving me a mischievous look. “Well—”He didn’t finish because I pinched him lightly and glared at him when he was about to complain. After one more round of hugs and kisses for me and our son, Sebastian boarded the plane. We waited until the jet took off before Sevi and I got back into the car to return to Northshire Village. It’s still just six in the morning. Sevi had gotten up early just to see his father leave that’s why his eyes were dropping now as he leaned against me. “Baby, let’s get breakfast first so you can sleep properly after.”“Okay, Mommy. I want pancakes with milk.”I kissed his forehead and told Rene to stop by the pancake place before heading home. Sebastian had borrowed Rene from his parents’ house. Since Roman and Florence still abroad, Rene would head back after dropping us off because his wife, who also worked at the Rocc mansion, had a fever. The takeout for Rene and the other household staff was handed to me fi
CHAPTER 62I continued walking but I held onto the mannequin when a man suddenly appeared and into me. I immediately went back to my feet.“I’m sorry.”“It’s fine.” He caught my wrist when I tried to step past him. “What’s your name? Do you want me to pay for your dress?”“No.” “Babe, why are you talking to her?” Tanya’s long nails dug into my arm as she forcefully pulled the guy’s hand away.“I’m just helping her?”“Really? You offered to pay and now you’re just helping?”The guy played innocent, still staring at me. “Yeah. She might not have enough—” He didn’t get to finish because Tanya spun around and furiously snapped at me. “You’re such a flirt!“Wow,” I answered and scoffed at her. Tanya couldn’t reply because the boutique manager approached us. She dragged her boyfriend away in a huff, but the guy kept looking back at me. It was already dark when I got home. The lights were off and the house was quiet. We hadn’t hired any househelps since moving to Northshire Town,“Sevi,”
CHAPTER 61 “So that’s why you were ignoring me?” “I was waiting for you to take it back. And to be sweet to me,” he answered that made me laugh. Sebastian stared at the ceiling to avoid my eyes. “I’m sorry. I got carried away. I shouldn’t have forced you to marry me.”I gently held his face. His eyes were red when he looked back down at me.“I’m sorry too for deciding so suddenly. I was waiting for you to ask me again. You asked me when we were in Malaysia, but you never brought it up after you woke up in the hospital. I couldn’t bring myself to ask you to propose again, so I thought moving out would help, ” I bit my lower lip. “I wanted you to understand that I don’t want a live-in setup…”“You want it now?”I nodded. “Not forever. I just realized I also need time for myself.”Sebastian’s expression was hard to read. “What do you mean?”“I want to go back to school. I didn’t finish because I had Sevi. I don’t regret having him because I wanted him. I wanted to give him all my att
CHAPTER 60Sebastian took me to the very back of the mansion, where it almost looked like a mini-forest with old thick trees. I looked up and saw a tree house nestled high in the branches of the largest one.“What are we doing up there?” I asked as he helped me step onto the sturdy wooden ladder.“You’ll see. Careful, love.”“You guys are being so weird today,” I said, suspicious, but he just kissed me quickly on the lips in response.“Just wait until you see how weird I can get.”I watched him slide the key into the lock. His hands were slightly shaking. I expected a simple treehouse inside, but my lips parted in surprise as I looked around. Framed photos of Sebastian and me from college were hanging everywhere. “Why do you still have all these?”He had secretly kept all the corny love letters I gave him back then, even after I told him I liked guys who were more gentlemanly.“Where did you get these, Seb?” I asked, my voice cracking.“I went to St. Benilde the first time I returned
CHAPTER 59 I’m wet.” His fingers brushed over my pussy, making my mouth fall open. The thin fabric of my panties did nothing to block the heat of his hand. Pleasure rushed through my body when he pressed against my clit.“I know,” Sebastian’s voice was rough. His breathing was heavy too. “Wet for me.”“We’re in the office.”He exhaled hard before pulling his hand out from under my skirt. Then he grabbed the back of my neck and kissed me one more time, deep and fierce, before finally letting me go. Dazed with pleasure, I met his green eyes.“Let’s eat, Neshara Fil. Before I eat you for dinner. Your sweet juice is tempting.”More wetness slipped out of me. Face burning red, I turned away from him and headed to the bathroom.We stayed in my office for one more hour after eating. Sebastian helped me with my work. I learned a lot about the corporation, especially Rocc Pharma. Our conversation about the lab continued all the way home.“I met one of the interns by the way. Mira,” I said whi
CHAPTER 58Sebastian's growned and his rows furrowed. He looked ready to pick up his desktop and hurl it at whoever was at the door. A few seconds later, I heard the door close and hurried footsteps rushing away.I covered my face with both hands, dying from embarrassment. I wanted the floor to swallow me whole. “Who was that?” I whimpered like a child..Sebastian looked down at me. “It was Braun.”“Did he see us?”Sebastian wrinkled his nose and shook his head. “I’ll pull his eyes out if he did. No one should see you look ravishing.”“Shut up!”Sebastian chuckled and pulled me up. “You started it, Neshara Fil.”I dodged him quickly when he tried to sit me on his lap. God knows where that would lead. I pointed at the folders. "Sign those.""Sure." He tilted his head, a teasing grin still on his lips.I rolled my eyes at him, cheeks burning, and sat on the visitor’s chair. I watched him as he went through the documents one by one. He'd stare at me for a few seconds, then drop his eye
CHAPTER 12Sebastian’s thick eyebrows crashed together. He left nothing when closed the distance between us in angry strides.“Say that again!”“Say what?”“Say something bad about yourself again, Neshara Fil. I swear—”I pushed him back lightly. “I’m leaving. I already finished everything you asked
CHAPTER 11 Florence's sweet smile vanished the second she recognized who I was. I followed Sebastian to the big wooden front door despite all I wanted to do was run away. “What is she doing here?” Florence dripped with disgust or…I don’t know, angry? Nevertheless, I don’t care. “She’s my secre
CHAPTER 9 This man had no heart, He knew I was terrified of heights and still dragged me onto this thing. I always avoided looking down when I was up in the office and here he was putting me in a damn chopper. It felt like years before we finally touched down on the helipad of some high-rise bui
CHAPTER 8 The conscious one started cursing at me when my men started dragging them out. I pulled out another cigarette but before I could bring it to my mouth, the three men holding the second guy lost control of him. He broke free and charged at me. My hand automatically drew the gun from my
