Carmen’s POV

“What are you doing here?” Chase asked harshly.

His countenance hadn’t changed much since the last time he showed me his beastly side after the tournament game, and I wondered if I was safe, being here alone with him.

“Who let you in?” He asked again before I could even find an answer.

Chase’s anger was so fierce that it burned into my skin, and I wondered why he was so pissed at me. I understood that he would be broken and upset after what happened, but taking it out on me in this manner was worrisome.

I thought that Chase wouldn’t harm me, and that there was no need to be worried or afraid of him, but with the fury in his eyes and how tense his living room was because of his annoyance, I began to rethink my choices.

“Where is Linda?” Chase went on to question me.

He was barely giving me the chance to even answer one question before he threw the next one at me.

“She is not here,” I managed to answer the last one.

When I returned to Chase’s apartment, I had met with his h

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   A Tough Phase

    Carmen’s POV“No, that is not the reason,” my dad said, but I still found it hard to believe him.“We didn’t know this until after that day, Carmen,” Lori added.That was true anyway.“Can I have my phone now?” I asked.“There it is,” my dad said, gesturing to the phone on the table.I took it and dumped it in my side pocket.I already had a new phone, but then again, I didn’t want them to have possession of my old phone. There wasn’t anything there that could implicate me as Chase’s manager, but still…“And I didn’t come to announce anything to you,” I said, responding to what Lori had said earlier.“You had no plans of telling us?” Lori asked, sounding hurt again.“That’s not why I am here,” I stuck to that.Right now, I didn’t even want to be a minute longer. I just wanted to proceed with what brought me here so that I could leave.Millie was already outside, and I could bet that she wasn’t comfortable. Besides, I already left her for a while earlier, and it wasn’t fair on her.The

    Carmen’s POV“How did you know that I have been working for Chase Maddox?” I couldn’t help but ask when I got over my shock.“Is that how they respond to best wishes these days?” My dad asked, trying to tease, but I couldn’t even look at it that way.“I don’t remember mentioning it,” I said, still surprised.Also, I ensured that I stayed out of Chase’s pictures and videos, even when we went for the charity function at the basement, which also turned out to be his, and when we signed the endorsement deal with Edna Jones.I had no business being captured in any of his pictures or videos because I wasn’t the celebrity, he was. It was normal with every manager and the players they managed, which was why I still had to introduce myself as Chase’s manager sometimes.People didn’t really know, and that was just how it worked.“Come on, Carmen, don’t be rude,” Lori decided to chip in. “Your father already said congratulations, and the best response is to say thank you,” she lectured me as tho

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   His Wishes

    Carmen’s POVI tried to find out from Lori what she could be on about, but she didn’t give me any direct answers, and that was when I knew that she was deliberately evading it.“You should try the dresses!” Lori urged.I thought that I could get out of it, but Lori was more pushy this time around, and before I knew what was going on, she was forcing me through three dresses, all of which I felt were too much for me.They made me look like Tiana Donalds, and I wasn’t sure I wanted to look like her even though clearly, Chase seemed to be attracted to her.By the time we got to the fourth dress, I was already exhausted, and even worse, we had spent way too much time in her bedroom. When I recalled that I left Millie downstairs for way too long, I felt worse.“Lori, stop!” I bellowed firmly, sick and tired of her antics. Lori stopped, but she was shocked at my reaction. She didn’t think that I would raise my voice.“I am sorry for raising my voice at you,” I told her.“I was only trying

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Back Here

    Carmen’s POVMillie and I got down from the cab and went in through the gate. We didn’t need any formalities at the front door because they already knew that I was a part of the family.“Carmen!” Lori screamed loudly as she descended the stairs.It was as though she was just waiting for us to walk into the living room for her to make a grand entrance.I caught sight of her personal assistant somewhere in the living room, and I wondered what she was doing here.“You made it!” She added as she got to where Millie and I stood.We both stood in the middle of the living room like strangers.As soon as Lori got to me, she took me into her arms and hugged me warmly.“Gosh, I am so glad that you could make it,” she said.I almost rolled my eyes at how extra and dramatic Lori would always be. She was acting as though I hadn’t been the initiator of this moment. Nevertheless, I allowed her to have the spotlight because that was what she always wanted.“Why are you dressed like this, Carmen?” Lor

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Unforgivable

    Carmen’s POV“I feel sick to my stomach,” Millie said.We were in a cab, headed to Lori’s house; the place that was supposed to be a home for me, and she couldn’t stop sulking.Anyway, I couldn’t fault her for that.I felt sick to my stomach as well.“It will just be for a moment, Millie, trust me,” I said, trying to pacify her.But in reality, I was simply trying to encourage the both of us.“I cannot even trust you right now,” Millie said. “You roped me into this knowing that I wouldn’t want to go, so don’t expect me to trust you,” she added.I smiled because I knew that Millie didn’t say those words out of spite.One thing with Millie Owen was that even if I was going to hell and she knew that it would burn her too, she would go right along with me, especially if I asked her to, even though she would complain and lament all the way through.I noticed that she had taken extra effort in her appearance, and that was because of Lori, and I appreciated that even though I didn’t say it t

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   A Score

    Chase’s POV“Dear Chase Maddox, I wish to inform you that I will be spending the weekend with my family...”I exited the mail and dumped my cell phone, but this was the sixth time I was going back to the mail since I received it, coupled with the fact that I was still reeling with the shock and guilt of Carmen’s actions.She had tossed the money at me and left, untouched.And then I had realized, more than after I had done it, that I made a grave mistake.Not that we would never have had this conversation about the sex, but it should have been in a mature manner, and I could have just told her that it wasn’t something that we would ever let repeat itself.For heaven’s sake, she was Donny’s daughter!I was almost going insane with these troubling thoughts that I picked up my phone again and went back to the mail.“After this weekend, I will return to work. If you need anything, you can let me know via this email or…”For the seventh time, I exited the mail, but I couldn’t dump the phon
