Clarissa would’ve been happy to receive gifts from Nicholas if he initiated it when they were married but now whatever he did seems meaningless to her.

Because in the past, he has been honest with her. Take it his hatred, his physical desires, his anger, everything, he never hid his feelings and expressed them openly.

Even if they hurt her, still she endured because she liked his honesty but now, he’s pretending to care about her and she didn’t have to guess the reason.

He wants her.

Physically.

She didn’t manage to make him fall in love with her but somehow he fell for her body.

No matter where he goes or what he does, he comes to her whenever he’s in the mood.

The loyal husband he was.

He never looked for other women when they were together which pushed her more to work hard to keep her marriage.

She didn’t know whether to feel proud or sad about it but that was all in the past.

She lost him the moment Natalie came into picture.

“Don’t mistake me as your ex fiancée.

    ***Warning***Mature content ahead.………………Clarissa hugged Nicholas in fear, burying her face in his chest and looked at their surroundings in caution. It’s over.She ruined her mother’s banquet.She would kill her if she knew that she’s making out with her ex husband in the backyard without caring about her introduction banquet. Nicholas engulfed her in his embrace protectively, shielding her from the outside world and ran his eyes to every nook of the garden, his thick brows furrowed as he scanned the place to find the person who interrupted them but a squirrel emerged out of the bushes clearing his suspicions.A squirrel? Clarissa heaved a sigh of relief seeing the tiny creature climb the tree after not finding the nuts on the ground.She almost thought someone caught them doing explicit things. Though they’re a married couple in the eyes of others, it’s not appropriate to be seen in indecent forms. Her ragged breathing from their intense making out slowly came to no

    ***Warning***Mature content ahead.………………….The guests left the banquet hall one by one bidding farewell to the hostess and Matilda started to get worried when she didn’t spot Clarissa anywhere, including Nicholas.She didn’t have to think hard about their whereabouts because she knew why they disappeared from the hall. The bastard deliberately instigated Daniel Morgan to engage her in a conversation so as to separate her from her daughter and to take her baby girl away to confront her about the pregnancy. She wasn’t nervous even when she saw Nicholas talking to her daughter because Antoine was with them but now even he didn’t know where they are. She blamed herself for provoking the madman because god knows where he took her daughter and is hurting her with his nasty words. Clarissa is a coward who couldn’t stand against a man like Nicholas. The poor girl must be crying like a fool, begging the bastard to spare her baby’s life.She asked Antoine to check all the rooms u

    Nicholas expected anything. Clarissa begging him to spare her or threatening him with the pregnancy or lying him about having an affair with someone else, anything but not Relationship severing agreement.Somehow all his predictions satisfied his ego because it gave him a sense of authority over her perceptions but this, THIS is not within his expectations.He should really admit that he is shaken a bit by her actions but he hated it. He hated the fact that he is unable to rule out this possibility. He hated that she is throwing him out of her life like a trash as if he meant nothing to her while he should be the one doing that to her. He hated her arrogance. He can’t tolerate to be on the receiving end because he’s always been the guy who dictates people, standing on top of the food chain, being the one in control.But for the first time in his life someone took the reins from him and he can’t let that happen. He would do anything to get back his reins. He approached Clariss

    Clarissa pressed her back to the trunk, beads of sweat dripping from her temples despite the cold outside but it didn’t effect her as much as Nicholas’s presence in front of her and the fact that he knew about the pregnancy. He alone is enough to make her shiver of the coldness emitting from him. Her throat felt heavy to even gulp because his hand is lingering on her belly, caressing the bump softly but all she can feel is dread, his terrifying gaze swallowing her alive.“Say something Clarissa Anderson.”Nicholas said, giving a little pat on her abdomen, making her flinch in trepidation.“I.. I…”She couldn’t utter a word because she didn’t know what to say to him. How did he even know about the pregnancy? She had been very careful to be discreet with the check ups. Even if she wasn’t, Catherine wouldn’t tell a soul because she knew her situation and same goes with Antoine.That leaves her mother but she won’t be foolish to risk her grandchild’s life.How? ‘How did yo

  • Unforgettable Fragrance : His Burning Desire   Chapter 17 : Panthère de Cartier

    Clarissa’s breath came out shallow as she panted, running after Nicholas who seemed to have no intention of caring about her situation. Her legs trembled, on the verge of collapsing but she managed to match his pace, her eyes looking at the familiar path he’s leading them into and something stirred in her. Don’t tell her he's thinking of…?She opened her mouth to beg him, to slow down, to let her go when her left ankle twisted, drawing a soft scream from her and only then did Nicholas halt in his tracks, turning back to look at her, his eyes still holding the fire.Clarissa crouched down, ignoring her caged hand in his grip and held her aching ankle, her face scrunched in pain.She knew it. She expected this would happen before she wore the heels. Nothing good happens to her when he’s here.
