Evadne felt as though a mouse was chasing her heart, causing it to beat rapidly in her chest.

“Are you planning to run away from me again?” Evadne nearly jumped at the sound of that smooth voice. What a bedroom kind of voice!

She raised her eyes to Gavin’s face, who had just opened his eyes. “Good morning,” he greeted her, revealing a captivating smile while keeping his gaze fixed on her.

Before she could appear foolish in front of Gavin, she raised her handcuffed hands slightly. “What does this mean? Why do you have to handcuff me?”

“It’s simple. You might escape again, just like you did before.”

Realizing that Gavin hadn’t forgotten about their past, Evadne discreetly swallowed.

“Mister, whatever happened between us before was wrong. I was drunk and not in my right mind. Whatever I did, I’m sorry. I promise it won’t happen again, and I won’t bother you anymore. So, please, take off the handcuffs. I need to leave.”

“You seem to have a habit of leaving in the morning,” Gavin remarked,

  • Sin With The Billionaire   Chapter 62

    Evadne felt worse than someone bitten by a snake because of that kiss from Gavin. Not even the sharp lightning and loud thunder could shake her. Whereas earlier, she could hardly keep still because of fear.But the fear she endured earlier seemed to vanish suddenly.Evadne’s hands instinctively rose to Gavin’s chest. While she still had some sanity left, she decided to push Gavin away from her.He relented.“W-what do you think you’re doing, Gavin?” she scolded, swallowing hard. For a moment, her gaze flickered to his lips, but she quickly returned her eyes to his.Those lips were a fierce temptation.Perks of being long deprived, Evadne? her mischievous mind teased.“I’m kissing you,” Gavin replied without hesitation. He took a deep breath. “And I’m not sorry for kissing you. It’s to ease your fear.”To ease her fear? That was a pretty good reason.“Gavin, you shouldn’t have done that. You know-”“I know there’s someone else,” he quickly interjected. “But, to be honest, the more we’r

    She secretly swallowed. “I’m happy here, Gavin. You don’t need to see it with your own eyes.”“Just let me if what you’re saying is really true.”“Do you doubt me?”“It’s not like that. I just want to make sure.”“I’m okay. We’re okay...” she and your children.“You’re not married yet.”Evadne couldn’t immediately respond to Gavin’s statement. Was she going to confess?“Is it really necessary for two people to be married before being together?” she reasoned.Gavin sighed. “If he really loves you, he’ll marry you. What if I decide to take you back, can he do anything? You’re not married yet.”Was he serious? Was he ready to take her back from someone else if she had someone else?“The conversation’s going off track, Gavin,” she scolded. She stood up and approached the grilled food he ordered. “Can I have some? I’m hungry,” she said before taking some. She also took another stick and handed it to Gavin.“No wonder the barbecue at that grill tastes so good because you’re the owner,” he

  • Sin With The Billionaire   Chapter 60

    Gavin squeezed his eyes shut, his head resting on his knees. His heart felt like it was being wrung dry as he listened to the fading hum of the motorboat. He hadn’t expected to see Evadne in that place. So, the moment he heard her familiar voice—while he was searching for firewood on the island for the bonfire he had planned for later that night—he dropped the wood he was carrying and ran toward her faster than a lightning strike. His heart thudded loudly in his chest upon seeing Evadne. She was really right in front of him earlier. But just like that... they were parted for good.And he couldn’t accept that part. That their past was finally severed. Suddenly, the surroundings seemed even more colorless and bleak. It’s as if his mind deliberately reminded him of the happy memories he shared with Evadne back then. When they were still okay. Now, he had to come to terms with the fact that it’s really over. That Evadne, who was once a part of his life, wouldn’t be coming back. Deep in

  • Sin With The Billionaire   Chapter 59

    Evadne mind was still conflicted—should she go back to Maine with Uncle Varenzo, or should she grant Gavin’s request for time to talk?Why was it so hard to decide?“Girl?” Varenzo called to her. He must have sensed that something was wrong because he approached her, ready to pull her away from Gavin.But why did it hurt to think of leaving white sand island without even talking to him? A part of her wanted to hear his side—why had he suddenly grown cold toward her back then?Was it worth listening to what he had to say?In the end, Evadne made a decision. She looked at Varenzo. “Can you just wait at the boat, Uncle Varenzo.”“Are you sure you don’t want to go home yet?”She nodded, and he respected her choice. She watched as Uncle Varenzo walked away. In her mind, she counted to five before finally turning to face Gavin.She could see the relief on his handsome face, as if her willingness to talk had allowed him to breathe easier.“Ten minutes, Gavin,” she told him.“Can’t we make it

    Evadne wanted to pinch her cheek to see if what she was seeing was real or just part of her imagination. Would the face she was seeing completely change the moment she blinked? Even her breathing momentarily halted. She couldn’t believe what her eyes were seeing. In the end, she couldn’t help but blink. But upon doing so, what she was seeing didn’t change. The man approaching her still had the same appearance. Like her, he couldn’t believe seeing her.When she recovered from her surprise, she managed to step back slightly away from Gavin, who was now approaching her. That voice was familiar. Even after five years, she could still recognize it so quickly. She secretly swallowed. “I’ve placed your order for the barbecue in your tent,” she said, trying not to let him see how affected she was by seeing him again in person. Why was it like that? Why was there a part of her that was excited to see him? Shouldn’t she be angry with him? Just as she was about to quickly turn away, he gr

  • Sin With The Billionaire   Chapter 57

    “WHAT’S WRONG? Your face looks sad again, Darling,” Catalina glanced at her husband, Gabriel, as he approached her.She sighed. “Gavin just arrived from somewhere. I don’t think our plan to set him up with Rosalin will be successful. Your son seems completely disinterested in Friend Dina’s daughter.”Gabriel embraced her and gently rubbed her shoulder. “I told you, you should talk to our son first. Maybe he has someone else in mind, which is why he’s not interested in Rosalin.”“Gabriel, our son is already thirty-seven. Do you want him to wait until we're dead before he thinks about having a family? Everything we have now will go to waste if there’s no one to pass it down to. We’re getting older. All I want is to see our son have a family of his own, a wife to stand by his side.”“When there were many girls linked to our son, you advised him to stay away from them and not get entangled. Now that he’s avoiding girls, you’re pushing for him to get married.”“How was I supposed to know i
