LILA

I was sitting at my desk, staring at my laptop screen but not really seeing anything. My fingers hovered over the keys, but my mind was far away. Mom suddenly appeared in the doorway, then stepped into my room and sat on the edge of my bed.

“I’ve been seeing you only at home for a few days now,” she said gently. “Did something happen? You usually leave early and come home late because of work. Are you hiding something from me?”

I turned my chair to face her, my heart beating faster. “Oh

    LILA I was sitting at my desk, staring at my laptop screen but not really seeing anything. My fingers hovered over the keys, but my mind was far away. Mom suddenly appeared in the doorway, then stepped into my room and sat on the edge of my bed. “I’ve been seeing you only at home for a few days now,” she said gently. “Did something happen? You usually leave early and come home late because of work. Are you hiding something from me?” I turned my chair to face her, my heart beating faster. “Oh, about that…” I moved closer and sat beside her on the bed, taking her hands in mine. “I’m sorry I kept it from you, Mom. I just didn’t want you to be disappointed. But I… I’ve decided not to continue my studies.” Mom’s eyes widened. “What? What’s wrong, Lila? Did something happen? Did someone hurt you on campus?” “No, Mom, it’s nothing like that,” I said quickly, squeezing her hands. “I just thought if I continued my studies without a secure job, I wouldn’t be able to enjoy my life. So I dec

  • THE CLEANER'S TRIPLE BET   Chapter 64: Back at the Dorm

    JAX We finally pulled up to the dorm after the long drive. Returning with Theo and Miles felt like it hadn’t been like this in ages. The three of us together again, no drama hanging over us for a moment. Theo and Miles went in first, laughing about something from the villa. I stayed in the car a little longer, staring at my phone. Then it rang. My dad. I answered, trying to sound normal. “Hey, Dad.” “Where are you?” His tone was sharp right away. “Dorm. What’s up, Dad?” “Dorm? I think you just got there. Where were you last night? You missed your practice yesterday,” he said, voice getting harder. “I—” “That’s enough, Jax! You can have fun with your girls, but not to the point of ruining your future. Think carefully. You could lose everything you’ve built for so long, your dreams, your career. If this is still about that cleaning girl, I’ll make you regret it.” Before I could say anything, he hung up. The silence in the car felt heavy. I sat there for a second, gripping the

    LILA It was getting late. The villa was quiet except for the low hum of the air conditioner. There were only three rooms, and I didn’t really want to decide where I’d sleep. Jax, Theo, and Miles were all fighting over who would sleep with me. I just laughed at their antics, sitting on the couch watching them. “Come on, I should get her tonight,” Theo said, grinning. “I haven’t held her in days.” Miles crossed his arms. “I missed her the most. She came to find me first. My room.” Jax smirked. “You both had your turns earlier. She’s sleeping with me. End of discussion.” I shook my head, smiling. “You guys are impossible.” Before anyone could decide, Angela came out of her room carrying a pillow. “You can sleep in my room,” she said, looking at me. “I’ll sleep with Miles. We’re used to doing this, so it won’t be awkward.” She walked straight toward Miles’ room without waiting for an answer. “What’s wrong with her? Why is she being so aggressive?” Theo asked once she was gone. We

    LILA “That’s too much I think,” Miles said when Angela suggested a particularly bold dare. “Why? There’s no one here other than us, and I’m sure you’ve done it often, right Lila?” Angela said, her eyes glancing at me, making me unable to say anything. “After all, this is just a game. If he doesn’t want to, he can take off one of his clothes. The rules are still the rules,” Angela said with a smirk. “I can’t do it, so I’ll take off one of my clothes,” I said quickly. I pulled off my shirt, leaving me in my bra. The bottle spun again and pointed to Angela. Theo gave the question. “Truth or dare?” Angela replied with a confident smile. “Dare.” Theo leaned back. “Do what you really want to do here.” Angela gave a smirk before finally standing up. She walked straight to Jax and suddenly sat on his lap. I froze. Then she leaned in and kissed Jax on the lips. A full kiss. Theo and Miles looked surprised too. Jax didn’t respond. He didn’t push her away, but he also didn’t

    LILA Night came faster than I imagined. We had so much fun by the pool. Theo played his guitar while singing softly with Jax joining in. Their voices mixed together in a relaxed, warm way that made the whole evening feel special. Miles was busy grilling meat for dinner. Seeing the three of them like this — laughing, teasing each other, working together — made me happy. But then I remembered we weren’t the only ones there. Angela was still around. I hadn’t seen her for a while, but when I turned my head toward the villa, I caught her talking on the phone with someone. She looked frustrated, pacing back and forth. I quickly looked away again. “The smell is so good. I’m hungry,” I said, walking over to Miles and standing near the grill. “Almost ready,” Miles replied. He pulled me close with one arm and kissed the top of my head. “You okay?” I smiled, leaning into him. “Yeah. This feels nice.” Angela’s voice suddenly cut through the moment. “Guys, how about we play truth or dar

  • THE CLEANER'S TRIPLE BET   Chapter 60: Questions in the Pool

    LILA I left Miles’ room quietly, straightening my clothes as I walked down the hallway. My cheeks were still warm, my body still tingling from the way he had touched me. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself before going back downstairs. But as I reached the top of the stairs, I bumped straight into Angela. She looked at me with an unfriendly gaze. Maybe it was just me, but it was very noticeable — her eyes narrowed, her lips pressed into a thin line. “How’s Miles?” Angela suddenly asked, stopping me in my tracks. I blinked, confused. “What do you mean?” Angela just chuckled, crossing her arms over her chest. “I know what they did to you, little Lila. It’s nothing new. I’ve known them for a long time. But I had to study abroad and was forced to leave behind what should have always been mine.” Hearing that confused me. “I don’t understand what you’re saying, but if you feel like I’m taking what’s yours, I think it’s a misunderstanding. You can ask them yourself, or your co
