Semua Bab The Playboy's Downfall: Bab 51 - Bab 60

ISLAAll I can do was too heaved a deep sigh after our conversation. Slowly, I can already understand him. I have a hunch that he already fell in love but someone broke his heart into pieces which makes him like this. Someone makes him a monster. And I honestly, admire that someone, because Zero loves her so much. Zero won’t be like that if he doesn’t love that person. At the same time, I can also feel madness towards that someone. She’s lucky to have Zero, knowing that Zero is sweet and caring. Zero was born with his Greek god-like looks and it’s normal to gain popularity.Women drooled over him—and it’s pretty normal. Who doesn’t? He’s rich, tall, handsome, sporty, and got bulks and packs. He almost has it all.However, no matter how hard you try to be the person you are, when love and heartbreak strike, love then can change you. Depending on how you look at it, it can either be extremely beneficial to your life or extremely detrimental to your life. Love has an incredible effect on

ISLAI didn’t bring any swimsuits and swimming is not a part of our plan—well, we don’t have concrete plans. Zero just told me that we’re gonna visit his mom—he means, his mom wants to see me.I don’t know what to believe this time. If Zero’s words or actions. Because his words were different from how he acted.“You can just wear your bra and panty—”“Excuse me, Zero Cohen. Never in my entire life that I swam using my undergarments. I prefer not wearing one—”“What? Don’t tell me you’re gonna swim, naked?” he asked, arching his left brow.We are still in his room while debating what I should wear.“You can do that?” Zero asked in awe.I arched my brow. “Of course, you wanna see how I prove it?” I teased. Well, I did try swimming naked but Becca was with me. It happened when I had an overnight in her place while her parents are away.“And where the hell did you swim naked?” he asked. See, his actions say differently. I can sense his anger as the tint of jealousy lingers in his voice.“

ISLAI can’t stop laughing hard while Zero struggles to catch me. Damn, I’ve been good with this ever since Apollo, and I love to play tagging in our pool. And Apollo never wins over me. My brother even plays the game biasedly to win.I laughed again when Zero cussed out loud as he stared at me. He’s in the center of the pool while I’m on the right edge of the pool.He’s been chasing me for about ten minutes or fifteen—I don’t know since I don’t watch the clock. I saw how his face turned annoyed by me.“This is not a good game—”“Come on! We agreed with this—you told me you knew,” I shouted back and let out a mocking smile.Zero’s forehead creased. Suddenly, he swam towards me, and I did swim on the other side. I observed the movement of the water, and when I knew Zero was already near me, I swam fast to the other side of the pool, and when he rose, I saw irritation on his face.“Give up?” I teased, which made him frown.“Not in my vocabulary,” he uttered. I let out a sly smirk on my

ZERO was about to follow Isla when his phone rang. His forehead creased when he saw the name of the caller.He took a deep breath and tapped the answer button.“Take her home now,” Apollo’s voice roared on the other line, which made Zero clench his fist. “Give me time to explain—”“No!” Apollo disagreed.“But she needs to—”“Are you going to marry my sister or cut ties?” And there he is again, and Apollo asked him the same question, just like what he did after that night when he spent the night with Isla at the hotel.“You knew what kind of life I have—”“Then why are you seeing her again?! I already warned you to stay away from her, Zero. Don’t let our friendship be put to waste because of your doings—”“I’d stay away from her—”“Of course! Just like what you answered me last time, right?” Apollo's anger lingered in his voice. “You said to me that you’d rather stay away than get married—”“I am a mafia boss, Apollo. I love your sister—”“Fuck with your words, Zero. You are powerful b

AFTER that pleasuring moment between Zero and Isla—the last moment that they shared, Zero went inside the bathroom to take a cold shower, and she was left on the bed waiting for him. He wanted her to take a shower first, but she declined and let him first.She wants to stay still on the bed for a moment. She wants to savor the last moment of her on his bed. Suddenly, a thought filled her head. She’s wondering how many Zero brings into his parents’ house. Did they get them inside his room? Did they fuck each other on this comfy bed?She heaved a deep sigh and let go of those thoughts. She won’t gain a good thing if she continues to think of that negativity. But the fact that they were breaking apart after tonight will surely kill her.After a few moments of diving into overthinking, Zero caught her attention.“You can take a shower now,” Zero said as he wiped his wet hair with a white towel.She nodded and held herself not scanning Zero’s body again. She will just hurt herself if she d
