MasukRoxanne Grant has always been one to live her life according to her rules. Blessed with a handsome and capable fiancé and a dream job, she couldn’t have imagined a life better, until she discovers that her fiancé had been cheating with his secretary for a long time. Enraged and heartbroken, Roxanne decides to take revenge but accidentally bumped into Lance Laurent, Los Angeles’s hottest bachelor and heir to Laurent cop and the stepbrother of his fiancé. After that one steamy night, things began to get more complicated, spiraling out of Roxanne’s control and down a lane of lust. And much to her surprise, the L.A’s hottest bachelor doesn't plan on letting go of her anytime soon. ** ** ** "Thinking of another man while having me? Tell me, is my time a joke to you, woman?” Lance had grabbed her chin to meet his gaze harshly. With his words, Roxanne grinned as she placed the last of her concerns behind. Wrapping her legs around his waist and pulled him closer, she answered him in a slurry voice. “You have my full attention now, so you better make it worth the while.”

Her hair was pulled into a ponytail while her fringe hung on the side of her face, she wore a brown and white beanie while a black scarf was wrapped around her neck. Her outfit consisted of black jeans and a beige winter sweater along with a pair of white boots to complete her look. She had ordered a hot chocolate along with a pastry and was sipping on the drink when her phone rang.She looked down to see that it was Colton and she quickly answered the call, placing her cup down on the table. "Hey, Col, where are you?""In front of the cafe." The voice from the other end of the phone responded and Roxanne looked outside to see her friend waving. She smiled and waved back."Alright, I'm coming out." She said and got up, throwing her cup into the bin before grabbing her bag and walking out of the cafe.The winter was getting harsher and harsher with each passing day but she had
"You are absolutely pathetic, Penelope Cube." She said and glanced over to the crowd before returning her gaze to Penelope. "You're absolutely pathetic." She repeated in a much louder voice, making sure everyone in the room could hear. "All this while I had my eyes on you, waiting to see how far you'd sink before you drown." Roxanne smirked. "But you're the one that ended up drowning yourself, it's you that lost the game and now, you're going to have to pay for it."Immediately after Roxanne's words, Claude emerged from the crowd ready to defend his daughter. But Lance was faster.He rushed forward and blocked Claude before he could get closer to Roxanne. "Don't you dare?" He sneered.Claude stopped short in his spot and looked around from Roxanne who was standing her ground and looking unfazed to Penelope, his daughter who was drenched from head to toe in wine and then to Lance who was shooting daggers at him through his eyes. He didn't like the look that the young lad was giving him
The rest of the party went by peacefully, that is until Henry clinged his glass, drawing the attention of everyone in the room as he announced that he had something to say. In that moment, Lance and Roxanne glanced at each other, remembering how Henry said he was going to announce Lance as the new CEO tomorrow and step down from the Company."Can I please have your attention?" Henry said with a smile on his face as he stepped forward from his place where he had been standing with Frank and took to stand at the center, while everyone watched in anticipation."I know this might be quite sudden but I want to thank everyone here today for being a part of welcoming back my father from the hospital, it means more to me than any one could ever imagine." Henry said and glanced at Frank who nodded his head in agreement and looked back towards the crowd with a smile on his face."It's been an honor and a pleasure to meet all of you, whether you be the regular guests or some of the close family
After looking at herself one last time in the mirror, She decided that her outfit was okay as well as every other thing on her."You ready?" Roxanne asked when she finished dressing up and found Lance standing in the living room in his black suit."Yep." He answered and extended his hand for her to take, which she did, giving him a smile of confidence."Let's go." She said, and the couple exited the penthouse, locking the door and taking the elevator to the ground floor and stepping out into the bright sun of the morning.The city had woken up early that day, and the streets were already packed with people going on with their daily business, having no idea about what was to happen later that day.The couple strolled towards the parking lot, hand in hand. Roxanne took a deep breath before entering the car. She buckled up and strapped the seatbelt while Lance slipped into the driver's seat and started the engine."How nervous are you?" He asked once he pulled out of the parking lot and
