Eve couldn’t hold the pretense anymore. It would be better if she confessed. Casper didn’t look like he was joking. She thought he was just cold on the outside and would gradually warm up to her but it seemed that even his blood was made of ice. No, how did Jenna meet him? What did she do to capture his heart? Eve couldn’t accept that things were going to go down for her. "Why...why are you being so mean? You are always nice to Jenna so why are you treating me like this?" She faked tears in her eyes, her voice sounding remorseful. Men always took pity on a vulnerable woman, especially when she sheds tears. Sadly, these men had seen too much that there was no drop of pity in their veins towards her."Why shouldn't I treat you like a dog? You mean nothing to me." Eve shuddered at the icy air emitted with each word. This was her strength. She could fuck her way through every situation for as long as she was dealing with a man but this man wasn’t bending. He was too different."She can't
Jenna‘s eyes widened, her mouth parted as she descended from Casper’s comfortable lap and began to amble towards Eve. "What do you mean by that?" There was no amusement in her tone and she sounded as if she lost her soul.Eve pursed her lips, allowing her tears to freely fall. At a glance, she looked pitiful but no one could tell if she was faking it. "I couldn't manage the company like you so things weren't going well." "So?" Jenna had lost her patience. It was barely two months since she left so how could things have turned so bad? She couldn’t understand."I....." Eve sobbed."You what?" Jenna was already bursting with anger, she was just a few inches from getting physical."I sold the company and the mansion. We already signed the papers but the take over will be after the financial aspect has been settled,” Eve confessed.Jenna was broken. She lost everything. All her sacrifices were in vain. But Drake. Even if he betrayed her, did he also help Eve with this? The company was the
Her words hurt him deeply. He didn't care when other people called him heartless and he already knew that she was afraid of him but hearing it from her lips made him feel horrible. He didn’t want her to be afraid of him. He rather wanted her to be comfortable around him. He wanted her to be his only female friend. "Why are you afraid of me? I've never hurt you and never will." His voice broke, as strange emotions surged through him. He still didn’t understand what he felt for her. He only knew that he liked having her close to him and didn’t want any other man close to her.Jenna’s head was lowered but when she raised it, all she saw was indifference. At that, she felt that perhaps he didn’t care. At that thought, she didn’t feel vile to tell him her reason. "You are always so cold and intimidating." Casper sighed internally, relief washing him. He thought he must have done something to hurt her but It didn’t seem so. "You should get used to it by now. You know me better than anyone
“You trust me?” Casper's eyes were like fire yet she didn't lower her gaze. She meant it. Casper felt a satisfaction and peace he never felt before when she nodded in affirmation. “I promise to not abuse your trust,” he whispered in her ear, making her shiver when his lips touched her earlobe.His soft lips began kissing her face gently before he captured her lips hungrily. “Arrrrgh,” Jenna moaned aloud when his lips moved to her jawbone. She was already wet and ready. Foreplay at a time like this was torture but how could she tell him? Despite how he set a strange fire inside her body with his burning gaze, he still looked so elegant as if he wasn't doing anything to her.The fire in his eye burned, making her hot all over. It was like he wanted to eat her whole. Indeed, he was the beast.Howbeit, her eyes glinted when she felt his hard and thick cock lubricating her stomach with precum since he was taller than her. She reached out and touched it, earning a groan from him. Finally,
Casper knew that Grandpa had pride. Calling him broke was his way of making the old man regret taking the money and to return it. He also expected Grandpa to invite him to his villa for speaking to him in such a manner but when Grandpa didn’t do as expected, his suspicions grew. As for the offense committed, he had to handle it tactically, since Grandpa’s job wasn't completed until Casper was married. He could still use that to meddle in his life and just as expected, he did."Have you lost your manners because of power? Don't forget that I still have the right to interfere in your life for as long as you aren't married. You haven't made a move to acquaint yourself with the Wreaths, have you?" Grandpa hid his embarrassment and the fury boiling inside of him, while he straightened himself and walked towards the balcony. Caesar was upset. He knew it was Casper again. He was the only trouble his father had and if he had his way, he would take him out of the way.Casper clutched the phone
What exactly were they? Casper hadn't thought about it. He only knew that he would never let her go but never thought of a title to give her. He only asked her to be his friend so she wouldn't be afraid of him. But she was always more than that. He didn't know how deep his feelings were for her so her question baffled him yet, he couldn't lie to her. "I haven't thought about that part." There were complicated emotions in his gentle voice but Jenna couldn't help being disheartened with his words. "I guess it's complicated." There was remorse in her tone as she lowered her head to avoid his intricate gaze.Casper pulled her to him and lifted her chin to meet his dark gaze. "No." He paused and stared at her. He felt an aching heart when he saw the sadness in her eyes. He wanted her to be happy but that happiness should only come from him. He didn't care that he was being selfish. For as long as he had her, then everyone should be happy. He didn't hide the conflicting emotions in his to
“Jenna, why are you so busy, it's time for lunch.” Peggy had finished admiring Jenna's office and finally said. Jenna lifted her head, rubbing her temple tiredly. She really needed a break. “Casper said he'll take me out for lunch later.” Peggy's eyes narrowed at the remembrance of the rumours. She had even realized that Jenna, as a manager, was on the same floor as the CEO. No matter how she tried, she was tempted to believe that something wasn't right. “Are you talking about Mr Blade? Why do you address him so casually?” Peggy asked with an air of novelty.Jenna forced a smile. She couldn't tell Peggy everything like Kate since they hadn't been in touch for long. It was better to be cautious than to cry later in regret. “We were friends before I started working here,” she pressed her lips and said.She wasn't lying even though it wasn't the main reason. She met Casper before she knew he was her boss so she was still telling the truth. Peggy nodded her head thoughtfully.“No wonder
"Why did you purchase a new set of contraceptives?" Kate had dropped off Peggy and together with Jenna, they had just gotten to the living room when Kate saw the items and asked. She didn’t understand the reason why Jenna would still buy more when there was still some in the medicine cabinet."Do you think I don't know that Cathan sneaks in here? How can I be sure that you still have some left?" Kate crimsoned slightly at being caught. Cathan hardly shows up during the day but at night, he was sure to come. Kate thought that Jenna didn’t know but now, she proved otherwise. But the content of Jenna’s purchase was still too much, which made Kate curious."But you bought a lot. Does it mean?" Jenna’s cheeks were heating up at Kate’s teasing so she shifted her attention back to the purchase in her hand. "It means nothing. I'm just taking precautions." Kate’s brows knitted with worry. "You know he's not yours but you want to enjoy the little time you have with him?" "Is that wrong?" Jenn
