The Billionaire CEO Returns to College のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Before she could say anything, another sound came through the door. This time it was a different voice and a different kind of grunt. The loud moan filled the air. Her eyes widened. A laugh burst through her lips. She clapped her hands over her mouth to keep it silent."Oh, Mr Banks," the moan came again. Faith unconsciously took a step forward. She thought she recognized the voice but she couldn't be sure.Casiuss put out a hand in front of her and stopped. He motioned to her to follow him. They left that area and went to a different room.It was a full-size gym. Every kind of equipment she would expect to see in a standard, commercial was there. "Wow." She stepped further into the gym."You like to gym?" Cassius asked."Do I look like I gym?" She asked with a laugh.He smiled at her. "I guess not. I hope you don't mind but since we're here, I'm just going to get some work in.""Oh, I don't mind at all."He started undoing his buttons. Faith swallowed heavily, the threads of antici

Faith made her way back from her last lecture. She had a session scheduled with Devlin today so Casiuss would be around to pick her up any minute from now.She intended to thank Devlin today for clearing her name. She didn't know why that made her nervous. Actually, she did know. He would probably make some snide remark and make her feel stupid for even attempting to thank him in the first place.She sighed. She really did appreciate him. After her father called that night, she'd repeatedly sent up thanks that she'd been able to prove to him that nothing was going on between them.If they'd only seen the tabloids a few hours before, she didn't know how she would have convinced them. She knew her father. He would've shown up at Barbell and demanded to see Devlin.That would not end well for any one of them. She'd ended up sending him the latest articles disproving their romance as receipts and he finally believed her. Phew!The effect of his deed was also obvious here. No one spared h

"I must've gone insane for a moment. Yup! That's the logical conclusion." Faith repeated to herself for the umpteenth time.Ever since that night that Devlin touched her hair and butterflies erupted in her stomach, she'd been questioning and reassuring herself.Some guy passing guy gave her an odd look and crossed to the other side of the walkway. Faith fought the urge to yell after him, "I'm not a crazy person." That would only make her look more insane.Plus who was she to say that she wasn't insane? Hadn't she just been telling herself that she went insane for a moment?The irony of the situation was not lost on her so she began to chuckle to herself. Yet another passerby gave her an odd look and moved away from her."Okay, you need to calm down," she said to herself. At this rate, she would be committed before she could make sense of everything.What she needed was to sit down and think. She would be seeing Devlin for their next session soon. She needed answers before then.She tu

Faith felt it then again, that tingle of electricity that started in her hand where they touched but zoomed to her stomach where it began to bounce around erratically.She was spiralling. Her brain was tumbling. Noise filled her ears. Her brain could only conjure up one thought, "What is happening to me?"She snatched her hand back sharply. Oblivious, Devlin grabbed the pitcher and pulled it to himself. He smirked at her. "Better luck next time," he jeered.Faith was too stunned to react. Her eyes were stuck on him, her heart beating fast and her stomach squirming.He looked up from pouring himself some water and caught the look on her face. "What?" He demanded. "Is there something on my face?" He immediately proceeded to feel around his face for it.Faith shook her head, managing to squeak out, "No.""You're being really weird today," he noted.She needed to get herself together before he started asking tough questions. She spoke the first thing that came to her mind, "What exactly d

A sharp knock pierced through the room, jerking Faith back to reality. She jerked her hand back, unnoticed."Come in," Devlin called, not lifting his eyes from the book before him.The door opened and Casiuss stepped in. He sent a small smile her way. She returned it tentatively. "I'm back, boss.""Good. How are they doing?""They're good. Said you should visit yourself soon."Devlin sighed. "Yeah, I'll make some time.'""Need me to do anything else?""Yeah, Faith will be living in a minute. I need to take her back to Greenfield.""Okay, boss." He left the room, most probably heading to the gym to get some work out in, she guessed.Faith sighed with relief. With what just happened, she was glad to get away from him for a while. Getting into a small car with him would have been too much torture. She was sure now that she couldn't trust herself with this man. "I'm done," he said with a flourish, pushing the book to her.She checked out his work. "That's correct," she said, pleased with
