Carla Summers belonged to the elite, la crème de la crème, as some would put it. And if her mannerisms were any indication, the woman was rarely ever told no. She was an entitled trust fund baby, with more power among her circle than she should probably have — thanks to her late grandfather’s influence.

“Well, if it isn’t the gold digger herself,” the woman let out, her tone biting and full of unmistakable venom.

  • The Love of a Stepbrother    Chapter 67

    Simone’s anxiety made it hard for her to enjoy the massage, even though she could hear Colette sigh and hum contently every minute or so. The massage was no doubt delightful, but her thoughts, which seemed to spiral out of control, didn’t allow her to feel peaceful.Indeed, the mere thought that she might be pregnant ruined her mood.Before long, as they were ushered to the salon for their blow-dry, she could no longer remain still or calm. She needed to know, the sooner, the better.“I’m going to hit the drugstore,” she declared as she rose to her feet, and Colette looked at her with puzzlement in her eyes.“What for?” Her best friend asked, a little bit of a frown marring her face.“I’ll be right back,” Simone told her with a reassuring smile, although she herself was panicking beyond words, and then made a beeline to

    The following weeks went by, like a blur, uneventful and yet packed. Work was busy after all.Simone and Colette had decided to get a spa treatment for their monthly get-together. They made the booking at a popular, albeit affordable, place for the whole package; meaning they were not only getting a hammam and a full-body massage, but also their hair done.Simone was pumped about it, and agreed to meet her best friend there, at 10 am sharp.And because she was as unlucky as they came, she stumbled upon the Summers sisters. They had just emerged from a nearby shop, of which the mere brand name suggested they were there to spend a fortune. How typical!She did her best to ignore them, act as if she hadn’t seen them, and was just about ready to go inside the spa, when Carla let out in a mocking tone of voice, “Well, if it isn’t the gold digger herself.”Simon

    “I honestly cannot understand those women,” Simone let out in a tone of mild dejection as she leaned against William’s frame, on their ride back to the penthouse that evening.Indeed, she didn’t understand the purpose of their scheming. Sure, they fancied William, but did they really think that was the way to a man’s heart?Admittedly, Simone didn’t really know what William saw in her to begin with, but that was not the point.“And why would you want to understand them, Angel?” He chuckled, his gaze as tender as ever, settling over her face lovingly, when she knew all too well how it could act like a sensual caress at times. “If you must know, Carla Summers had a thing for me.”“Has a thing for you,” she corrected without missing a beat.“When her father and I were on a business trip, many year

    Stepping out of the luxurious sedan, William soon reached out a hand to help Simone out of the vehicle. She plastered a commercial and frigid smile on her face, and soon followed him.Cameras flashed, but she paid them absolutely no mind, attentive as she was to the man she loved, smiling up at him. He had told her on the car ride to only focus on him. Doing so, it seemed like she managed to dismiss the cameras and the unwanted attention as if it were nonexistent.Many questions were fired at him, which Simone didn’t quite hear — as if it were simply noise — for she was completely focused on her beloved’s eyes, no matter what the onlookers might think. Sure, she was head over heels with him, but she was also desperate not to make any faux-pas.“Nothing to say,” he iced out, and there was a collective sigh, from the reporters, as he began to walk, with his security detail helping.

    Simone was at a beauty salon that had quite the reputation – La Fashionista. They usually tended to the elite, and always made sure their clients left people in awe.She didn’t think she had what it took to be stunning. The salon didn’t have any mirrors hung on its walls, and it was difficult to guess what they were going for. She wasn’t one to do heavy make-up usually, but William told her to trust them.Hell, he even seemed to know the main make-up artist, who chatted him up sweetly, “This is your first time bringing someone here… Dare I hope you’re finally settling down?”“She has me wrapped around her little finger,” he admitted easily.Simone was sure that he knew what he was doing. After all, making such a confession in a beauty salon — no matter how discreet they claimed to be — was a sure way to have this spread among the elite.It seemed like he truly wanted the whole world to know he was happily taken.“And he doesn’t seem annoyed by that, people,” she let out in a tone of t

    Simone could barely comprehend where she ended and William began. She returned his passion with equal fervor, and it wasn’t long before she came undone under his expert fingers. She had craved this, for days already, the whole issue with the stalker making her long for intimacy, for somethi

    Simone was having a restless night, and she found it hard to keep still in bed, even though she wished she wouldn’t wake William.There were so many things to consider. She recalled the picture on her bedside table, and also the envelope in which there was no doubt some

    The set of keys Mrs Atkins had was nowhere in sight, and that explained her shock but also her frightened face.While William sported a grim expression, Simone tried to reassure her, “You might have just misplaced them, Mrs Atkins.”“I n
