LOGINEvelyn's Pov.I watched as Adrian immediately fumed as he read through the contents of the letter.He passed it to me before explaining the content to Michael. It was only a piece of printed letter that read:" You might have managed to escape this trap I have set for you. But don't forget about how you intended to use your pretty little wife that you've suddenly grown fond of as a tool to avenge your parents death. What will happen when everyone finds out that there's more to your transactional marriage to her. Get ready".My head sank as I felt bewildered, I was in a state of shock and anger. Those claims were true and if it got out it could also manage to ruin things for us.I felt welled up with anger, tossed into a new dilemma after what seemed like a short-lived moment of relief.The look on Adrian's and Michael's face was a clear reflection of how hard they were struggling to keep how perturbed they both felt away from me."Seems we won't ever catch a break from this witch", M
Evelyn's Pov.Only about three men affirmed to his claim, while others seemed to be too afraid to show support or still feared Adrian.I watched in surprise as Adrian's face suddenly broke into a sadistic smile, I knew instantly that he was about to say something that will definitely break this outspoken man's defence entirely." Mr Scofield, I wouldn't be so standoffish if I were you. Do I need to remind you that those stocks you're claiming belonged to your uncle, may his soul rest in peace. And allegedly in a circulating news you managed to conceal, you were involved in the death of his only heir, which automatically made you inherit his wealth", He said to my surprise." So you should be the last person in this room to protest. Now sit your ass down, while real blameless men try to resolve this mess", He delivered smoothly putting Mr Scofield in his place without trying too hard.He got on his feet abruptly casting warning glares at everyone." The more I think about this, the mor
Evelyn's Pov.We got to the company after Adrian decided to make an unnecessary fuss about who should drive and who shouldn't.I couldn't afford to let him drive, not with the signs of anxiety he was beginning to exhibit.As expected the press were already waiting for our arrival, ready to devour us with questions." Mr Blackwood are those claims about you true?", " What's the fate of your esteemed company now?", A reporter shouted shoving his recorder to Adrian's face.If not for the intimidating stance of his bodyguards shielding us from these reporters that were beginning to look like a colony of ants, we wouldn't be able to easily get into the office.My palms were locked in his as he ensured we safely got inside without any further disruption.The once tidy and work minded atmosphere was now replaced with an air of confusion and disarray as several workers were yelling, giving orders obviously trying to get everything in order.Adrian didn't mind this as he only focused on gettin
Evelyn's Pov.Without asking if he really wanted a glass of water, I got up and headed to the kitchen. My hands were trembling and I was making a horrible mess on the kitchen slab."I guess I'm not the only one feeling tensed", Adrian whispered to my ears. I placed the jar and glass on the table, focusing on our rasping breath.I held back a wince when he sat me on the cold slab. Placing his hands on both sides, our lips were so close and his eyes kept flickering down to my own."Adrian", I whispered.He groaned pulling my bottom lip between his teeth, sucking on it sensually before letting go." I was a fool to waste my time trying to resist you", He groaned pressing my shoulders gently so I laid down.The slit on my thigh was open now in this vulnerable position, giving him access to massage sensitive parts of my thighs causing my cunt to quiver.I watched as he popped the button of his shirt before jolting to my feet shoving him aside." What's wrong?", He asked." I'm sorry, Adri
Evelyn's Pov.Uninhibited happiness flowed from him to me and I couldn't resist the urge to smile as I gazed into his eyes."Did you miss me?", He asked eagerly like a child.I sighed, of course I missed him too, but I don't think I'm comfortable enough to share my feelings with him yet." I didn't know you were a sponsor here?", I asked instead, loving the feeling of his palms wrapping around my bare and sensitive arms." I'm sorry that caught you by surprise, but when Fiona told me you wanted a job, I made sure she gave it to you, not because of my influence but because you really deserve it. You're the real philanthropist here ", He smirked.I smiled, " You're the one with the big bag of money to assist people ", I countered." Well, this foundation could be yours sooner than you've ever imagined. Miss Fiona and her children are relocating to France in three months time for some personal reasons. So please don't say no because you don't want help from me. Promise me you'll think ab
Evelyn's Pov.She took a step back definitely shocked, "I'm sorry, I just want the best for my daughter", She said."I understand. Let's wrap it up for today, for the next session which is on the 12th of March, that's three days from now. I need Sally to come alone ", I told them clearing their files." Why?", Mrs Corey asked in doubt with little bit of shame clouding her once pompous face." I'm only doing my job", I answered." Thank you, Miss Evelyn", Sally said."I'll meet you outside, Mum. I need to ask her a question alone", She added to my surprise. Her mother hesitated a little before rushing out.I looked at Sally in question, waiting patiently for her to speak. " Is everything okay?", I asked." Are you happy with your husband?. I mean I didn't know it was an arranged marriage until my Mum blurted it out ", She said.My train of thoughts travelled to the many imaginations I've had since I left Adrian three weeks ago, I have imagined him coming to get me, and we'll begin to l
Evelyn's Pov.He stopped me, raising my head so I could meet his eyes."Do you want me to stop?", He asked grunting in satisfaction as I ground my core firmly against his hard member." Do I look like I want you to stop?", I whispered biting my lip cause I was trying to control the moan about to ri
Evelyn's Pov.I couldn't go with Adrian to the office, as I was swarmed with more informations to unearth and other syndicates to expose.I was backing off from Victoria's case for now, since he said he had it under his control. My fingers halted on the keys I was about to press as I recollected th
Evelyn's Pov.Michael stood up, " Are you even listening to yourself. If you claim you were scammed why isn't there any report to confirm, Victoria. You're the real conniving bitch here", He bellowed.The air was harsh against my skin, the scent of expensive perfumes mingling with the tension filli
Evelyn's Pov."You're a coward".My words stopped him in his tracks and I inhaled sharply." What did you just say?", His nostrils flared."Let me help you", I repeated." Stop running", I added.I could see the conflict in his eyes, his silent battle with trust."I'm not doing this with you", he t
