Patricia's POV:

I wasn't sure who that lady was, but one thing was clear, I had just earned myself another enemy.

The second Aaron pulled away from me, he stared at her with a blank expression, all warmth drained from his eyes as if it had never existed.

Oh, so they were engaged on love terms? Since when? And who approved that fairytale?

Without warning, Aaron lifted a hand and gave her the middle finger, tilting his head slightly, almost challengingly.

The tension that followed was so thick it

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   79: Our Kidnappers...

    Clover's POV.We made it back to the hall, arms locked... The hall first went quiet... Dead quiet... Before several people returned to their chatter as if nothing happened. Many people were gossiping but their noise wasn't as loud as the one in my head telling me I'm going to regret it.Fuck that now... Not even my stepdad looked at me twice before channeling his focus on my mother again. At present, they were having a conversation with the Ellingtons and Simon."Do you want to go talk to him?" Calhoun gently whispered into my ear to which I offered him a gentle nod. I thought he'd let me go by myself; instead, he led me to my stepdad..."Look who we have here" my mother chimed, clapping her hands together to welcome us into the talk circle..."Congratulations on your new engagement... Mr Hanson... I see a future in you two" Kiera's father commented, shaking hands with Calhoun and me."Hanson we are all counting on you to be gentle with this one... Don't break her heart and make sure

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   78: Spending the rest of my life with an idiot

    Clover's POV Several years later. As soon as the car pulled over, Kiera and I were finally able to catch our breath that Jessica stole with her reckless driving. "What the fuck Jessica!!! We almost met God like 5 times in just 15 minutes! Do you even have a legit driver's licence?" Kiera hollered at her while still holding her chest as if we were still in danger. "Stop being dramatic bitch and let's go crash some party!!!!" Jessica sang smoothly, shaking her body gingerly. All of a sudden, my heartbeat accelerated more than it had since the moment Jessica sat in that driver's seat. Tonight I would be seeing Calhoun after a whole three months of our cold separation... No contact, no communication thanks to our little misunderstandings and conflict... I broke up with him... Well, technically he broke up with me because I wouldn't, stop seeing that one male supermodel whom I newly recruited to model for my fashion brand. So technically I wasn't cheating; I just enjoyed

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   77: A New Me.

    Clover.I zipped the last suitcase shut, scanning the room one final time. Nothing left behind, not a single pen, not a scrap of fabric, not even one of the countless pins I'd used over the past year. Everything was packed, labeled, ready. Finally. One year in the Hanson mansion, done. College, here I come. A sharp knock on the door made me jump, and the stack of books in my arms tumbled to the floor with a thud. I hurried over and swung the door open. Morgan stood there, a soft smile lighting her elegant face as her eyes swept into the room. “Leaving today?” she asked gently, already knowing the answer. Oh no. I'm not letting her talk me into staying another day. I'd told myself I'd leave on the 25th, and here I am on the thirty-first. I knew she was here to try to persuade me to stay for New Year's, and as much as I would love to. Mom would literally kill me if I delayed. The day I told her I was heading straight to France instead of coming home first, she immediately

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   76: PDA.

    Clover POV:First week of July.A month later.Racing down the stairs with my backpack, I checked my wristwatch. It was already one PM.Fuck. I had a flight to catch before one thirty. Shit, I should not have overslept.Just as I rushed past Williams at full speed, I felt a cold hand descend on my shoulder, dragging me back."What is it?" I yelled out in annoyance."Where are you off to?" he asked, his brows arched."Going back to work, duh," I replied sarcastically as I tried to skirt around him, but he shoved me back again.Finally, I had fully recovered, so there was no point in me still residing in this place, especially when I had a job to finish.I figured I would not be able to quit easily. Otherwise, Patricia and my stepfather would conclude I was fired. I still had something to prove to my stepdad especially."You only left the crutches two days ago, and you are already running like you are practicing for a marathon," Williams shot back, sizing me up with scrutiny, a mocking

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   Chapter 75: Tonight Is About Us

    CLOVER'S POV My gaze snapped to the curtains whipping wildly in the wind that poured through the cracked-open window. This was my room in my stepfather's mansion. Walls thin enough that voices carried down the hall and family and strangers were sleeping just doors away. If someone heard. "Hey, eyes on me, Lovie," Calhoun murmured, fingers gentle but insistent as they tilted my chin back to him. The moment our eyes locked, the rest of the world faded, the storm outside, the risk of being caught...none of it mattered. His stare was dark, hungry, and entirely mine. I let my eyes drift shut as his mouth claimed mine again. The kiss was slow at first, almost reverent, like he was memorizing me. Then it deepened, his tongue slid against mine, coaxing soft gasps from my throat as heat flooded every inch of me. Our breaths mingled, hot and ragged; his lips were firm, demanding, tasting faintly of the red wine from dinner. Every time I tried to breathe, he chased me, angling

  • The Billionaire's Dangerous Claim   Chapter 74: He Said He Loves Me

    CLOVER'S POV: After dinner, everyone retired to their rooms, everyone except us, of course. Jessica, Kiera, and I were enjoying some much-needed girl time on the terrace, even as the rain continued to pour and thunder rumbled in the distance. We gossiped about random, insignificant things and people, laughing under the shelter of the wide overhang. “So guys, my ex and I made up yesterday…” Kiera announced, winking at us playfully. “So I’m thinking of torturing him, you know?” “By torture, you mean with knives and needles, right?” Jessica asked, a deep frown etched on her face as she turned her gaze away from the stormy sea to stare at Kiera. Oh no… these two. One was wildly inappropriate, and the other was hilariously innocent. They had zero ability to read between the lines. Kiera was clearly hinting at something sexual and teasing, while Jessica had immediately jumped to psychological or physical torture. I quietly watched them banter back and forth, amused by their complete
