Chapter 71: Adopted Lily

**Lily’s POV**

Fuck it.

I’ve been caught. This fucking Damon! This … this… fuck fuck fuck!

My pulse was pounding so loud I could hear it in my ears, louder than Hannah’s annoying voice droning on as she pitched my… no, her fucking proposal. My hands gripped the arms of the swivel chair until my nails dug into the leather. Every word Hannah spoke was a noose tightening around my neck.

And that bastard Damon, oh, I knew it. He was behind this. I could see it in the way he perched on Lucas’ desk like some smug second-in-command, practically smirking each time Hannah made a point. This wasn’t a random request; this was a setup. He wanted me cornered. He wanted to prove something.

Who in their right mind drags two interns into an office to verbally defend their written proposals when it isn’t even a boardroom presentation? Who? Nobody. Unless, of course, they smelled something fishy. Unless they were convinced that Lily Black, the so-called adopted daughter, wasn’t

  • The Heiress Returns: Reclaiming My Legacy   Chapter 103

    Chapter 103 Hannah’s POVThe ride back home with Gavin was suffocatingly quiet at first. My fingers kept brushing against the hem of my dress, restless. The city lights flickered through the tinted windows, washing his face in a rhythm of gold and shadow.Gavin gripped the steering wheel like it had offended him. I could tell he was thinking and pondering over what Lucas had said. Then, out of nowhere, his voice cut through the silence. “You want to marry Lucas?” I froze, my heart thudding so loud it felt like he could hear it. His tone wasn’t angry, more like disbelief laced with warning.I turned to look at him, but he kept his eyes fixed on the road. His expression was unreadable, a mask of calm that didn’t fool me.“Uhmm…” I swallowed, “I don’t really know yet.” He finally looked at me, just briefly, and the weight in his eyes made me squirm. “Do you have any reason why I shouldn’t?” I asked, my voice softer than I meant it to be. Gavin sighed, that deep exhale that always c

    Chapter 102Lucas’ POVI still couldn’t wipe the grin off my face.Every muscle in my body felt relaxed with the kind of lazy satisfaction that only comes after pure chaos and pleasure. The kind that makes you want to stay exactly where you are forever.Hannah was lying on the couch, hair messy, lips slightly swollen, looking like sin and heaven wrapped together.God, she was beautiful.If I could’ve frozen that moment, I would’ve.I reached for my phone, dialing Damon’s number, still grinning like an idiot. He picked up almost immediately, sounding like he was halfway through a sigh.“Lucas, don’t tell me you teleported out of Piper’s house because I can’t believe you’re still in there?”I chuckled. “Still at Piper’s. Listen, I need you to do something for me. Book a hotel nearby for Piper, five-star, something cozy. Send her there for the night so I can stay here with Hannah.”There was silence on the other end, he must be that short of words. Then a sharp whisper:“The older brothe

    Chapter 101Piper’s POVDamon and I had been outside for what felt like forever. Two whole hours of mindless chatter, half laughter, half awkward pauses, and a ton of random oversharing I never thought I’d say out loud.The first hour, we sat by the staircase like two homeless philosophers solving the world’s problems with absolutely no plan to move. Every time someone walked past, I wondered if they thought we’d been kicked out by our partners or evicted for unpaid rent.Eventually, my butt started aching. “Okay,” I said, rubbing my lower back dramatically. “If I sit here another second, my spine’s going to disown me.”Damon laughed softly. “Let’s stay in the car, the seats there are more comfortable”“Oh sure,” I said, pretending to think about it. “Let’s sit in your boss’s car and gossip about his sex life.”Oops, that came out weird, sex life? Jeez! But we are not gullible, Lucas and Hannah are definitely having sex in there.He smirked. “Who said we’re gossiping?”I narrowed my e

    Chapter 100**Hannah’s POV**Lucas kissed me like a man starved, his mouth fierce, claiming, searching. His hands tangled in my hair, pulling me closer until my body curved into his, until I couldn’t tell where his breath ended and mine began. The cushions shifted under us, springs protesting as we sank, limbs tangling.He undressed me with uttermost ease, and I assisted him in taking off his shirt, he didn’t bother taking off my panties, he was too desperate to feel my veejay against his cock.He swung one of my legs over the couch rest and slid my panties aside, penetrating me with a loud groan.I whimpered, well, because his cock was too huge, and my veejay was too tight and I felt that painful pleasure.Lucas was good, like very good with grinding, ensuring all of his cock were inside me, kissing and caressing every part of my body.I felt guilty for Piper because I knew all of my juices would be staining the couch.The couch wasn’t enough. It was too small, too confining for the

    Chapter 99: Ray and Lily**Ray’s POV**The room still smelled faintly of Lily’s perfume…the expensive floral kind that always lingered long after she was gone. But right now, the sweetness only made my stomach twist with dread.She was pacing the floor of my bedroom like a restless predator, while I sat slumped at the edge of my bed, palms pressed together in a pleading motion.“I didn’t mean for it to blow up like that,” I muttered for the tenth time. My voice was hoarse, exhausted. “I thought the guy filming would cut it short before anyone noticed. I didn’t think…”“Of course, you didn’t think.” Her voice snapped like a whip, cold and sharp. “That’s your problem, Ray. You never think. You just act like some lovesick puppy and then dump the consequences in my lap.”I swallowed hard, shame boiling through me. I’d faced down hostile boardroom sharks before, but none of them made me feel this small. Only Lily.“I’m sorry,” I whispered again.Her gaze shot to me like daggers. “Sorry? Yo

    Chapter 98: Piper vs Damon**Piper’s POV**Damn! That was… mortifying. My lungs felt like they’d forgotten how to breathe properly. My cheeks were burning so hot I could fry an egg on them. The moment Lucas’s lips had touched Hannah’s, the atmosphere in the apartment shifted into something I had no business third-wheeling.I didn’t even know where I was running to, but I bolted out anyway. Just as I cornered the stairs, clutching the railing like it was a lifeline, I realized I had no plan. No direction. I just couldn’t be in that room, not with those two who had just fucked last night.Oh God. My poor, innocent apartment.I love that couch. Please, dear heavens, don’t let them deflower my precious apartment.I slowed my steps, my sneakers squeaking against the floor as I looked up.Lucas’s charming, annoyingly perfect secretary. Standing right outside the building like some kind of well-tailored gargoyle.The sight of me must have shocked him, because his brows shot up like he’d just
