Chapter : 36 Red-Handed 2

Auteur: The Fluttering Snow
“Take the money, Ella. It’s better than getting nothing at all,” Chris told her as she hesitated for a moment. Only the tears streaming down her face revealed her sorrow.

“Ella, just take it,” Theo urged as well.

“Use this money to find a new place to live, and get a new job,” Theo said before pulling the cheque from his mother’s hand and pressing it into Ella’s palm himself.

Ella looked at the cheque in her hand, her face covered in tears. She said nothing more, only lowering her head once i

  • The Arrogant Love   Chapter 200 : Special Episode 6 (End)

    Portia opened her room door for her older brother with a slightly surprised face, though she already expected that he would surely come to ask about Nicholas.​“Tell me, why do you trust him so much?”​“Patrick, how can you ask that? It's embarrassing, you know?” Portia walked over and dropped onto her bed. Her brother followed and sat on the edge of the bed, stroking his sister’s hair back and forth.​“No need to be shy. Tell me more so I can think of him differently.” Even though things had cleared up, the suspicion still remained.​“Patrick, do you know that Nicholas got a new tattoo on the left side of his chest?”​“Hmm, really?”​“Yes.”​“So?” He couldn’t imagine how it related to this. His younger sister quickly got up from the bed, grabbed her mobile phone, opened a photo she had taken, and handed it to her brother.​“Is this Nicholas?”​“Yes.” Portia showed a weird smile, as if something was hidden in this picture. Patrick tried to look deep and interpret the meaning.

    Amidst the soft chirping of the birds, Portia, sleeping soundly, nuzzled closer for warmth, clinging to him as if he were her favorite cushion. But why could her soft cushion move? She quickly opened her eyes.​“Nicholas.” Portia looked at Nicholas, who was already propped up on his elbow, watching her with a warm smile. Suddenly, her heart warmed up as well.​“What time is it? I fell asleep without knowing.”​“You slept soundly. You were tired last night.” Nicholas’s eyes shimmered. He playfully stroked Portia’s soft cheek.​“Nicholas, my body aches all over.” The little one looked exhausted and sulky. Nicholas stifled a laugh with affection. How could she not ache? Last night, he had put in his full strength without holding back.​Knock, knock, knock.​“Breakfast is here.” He got up from the bed and flicked the blanket to cover her completely. He didn’t want anyone to see even a toe of the person on the bed.​He opened the door just a crack, received the food tray, and placed

    He moved his palms up to cradle her face, bringing his lips close slowly. He gave her soft, sweet kisses over and over until Portia could barely catch her breath. Her breath caught even more when something under the water pressed against her. A hard desire pushed through the fabric, coming into close contact with her body.​“Portia.” A hoarse voice revealed the speaker’s mood. Nicholas wasted no time. He pulled Portia’s wrist to follow him to the stairs in a secluded corner on the other side of the pool. This corner was completely dark with a wooden board blocking the cliff view.​“Nicholas... ah!” The person who was showered with kisses without a chance to prepare became weak immediately.​Nicholas sat on the bottom step. He settled Portia onto his lap, keeping her upper body clear of the water. Portia held him close while the strap of her bra slipped loose. His thick palms moved under the small tank top before pulling it up to stay above her chest.​“Mmm!” Portia arched her chest

    As soon as Portia hung up, Nicholas burst into loud laughter. He was both amused and entertained by Portia’s lying skills. He couldn’t believe she dared to say that.​“You are so wicked.”​“Wait, why are you calling me that, Portia? I didn’t tell you to lie to your mom. You thought of it and did it all by yourself.”​“It’s because of you, Nicholas, that I had to lie.” Portia made a grumpy face, putting all the blame on him alone.​“There, there. Don’t be like that. Don’t be sulky.”​“I am not a child. You keep saying I’m sulky all the time.”​“But it suits you, Portia. You are both sulky and a crybaby, but everything about you is lovely and adorable.” Nicholas smiled all the way to his eyes. Portia sat twisting her body with shyness on the bed.​“Do you think your mother believed what you just said?”​“I don’t know. I heard a soft sigh before she hung up, too.”​“It would be a miracle if she believed that. I probably have to avoid going to your house for a while.” His ambiguou

    “Thank you. By the way, where can we have dinner?”​“Our kitchen is open until 10:00 PM. You can call to order and eat on the balcony by the pool, or you can eat at the restaurant. The phone number is provided right by the telephone.”​“Thank you.”​After the staff member walked away, Nicholas went to lock the room door while looking for the person who had entered before him. Portia had opened the balcony door and was sitting there admiring the beauty of the swimming pool, which contrasted with the forest and mountain view in front. Their room was situated almost right on the edge of a steep mountainside. Fortunately, there was a railing in front of the pool.​“The air after the rain is wonderful, Nicholas.” The person sitting on the round rattan chair turned to look at Nicholas, who had opened the sliding door to sit opposite her.​“Aren’t you hungry, Portia? I’m starting to get hungry. Since we went cycling, we haven’t had dinner yet. We’ve just been driving back and forth.” Nic

    Both of them cycled around the reservoir until they completed the full circuit before returning the bicycles to the rental shop. Nicholas bought a whole coconut from a nearby stall for Portia to drink and satisfy her thirst. Both sat down to rest and drank coconut water to recover from their exhaustion.​“What was so good about that message, Portia? I saw you smiling to yourself the whole way while we were cycling.” Nicholas couldn’t help but wonder. Portia’s cheeks had been puffed up with a grin ever since that moment.​“It was nothing.”​“Hey, Portia, don’t keep secrets from me.”​“And what about you, Nicholas? Do you have any secrets from me?”​“None. None at all, Portia.” The respondent shook his head quickly.​“Are you sure?”​“Of course. Why would I lie to you?”​The two sat smiling at each other, both thinking they were keeping their secrets well hidden. Even though Nicholas didn’t say it directly, Portia felt her heart swelling so much it nearly burst out of her chest.

    “Ella, tell me everything. What happened? Who did something to you that made you pack your bags and leave Paula’s house like this?” Ruby asked in a firm voice. Ella flinched a little in surprise but tried not to meet her eyes.“Tell me, Ella. Who was it? Was it Chris?”“No, no, it wasn’t Chris,” E

    Since there was no one else he could ask, it wasn’t difficult; he would simply wait to ask Ella himself. Theo began sending men to keep watch in front of Tucker’s house and to investigate the times when Ella stepped outside. Soon enough, every answer he wanted came to him. Ella was working as Flynn’

    The conversation ended in silence between them. Chris let out a quiet sigh, while Ruby lowered her head. Why did it feel so suffocating, so hard to explain?“I sent you a message, you read it. Why didn’t you reply?” Chris was the one who finally spoke, after nearly a minute of silence.“I read the

    As the older brother stood there, stunned by what he saw and heard, the two in the bedroom were arguing on the bed. Ella didn’t dare scream for help, knowing it would be useless. Theo had literally silenced her with money, a large sum that she needed to send home. The farm had been flooded, and her
