CHAPTER 32DAX’S POVFuming hard as I walked out of Ruby’s house with Simon on my trail, my blood boiled with anger, I itched to smash my fist into something and relish in the pain it would bring to my knuckles but at the same time, I wanted to walk back in and tell Ruby that I would never do such a thing to her again.I was mad and disappointed though, at the fact that Ruby suspected me all along even after I told her I could never do such. It hurt to know she didn't trust me or whatever I said but then I couldn't blame her either.I hurt her, ruined her reputation in New York, and made her start her life all over in a new country where she knew no one except Clarissa. So I wouldn't exactly put it all on her if she didn't trust me yet. I caused it all and I guessed it was time for me to pay back, no matter how infuriating some situations may be.I walked into my house and Simon closed the door gently while I stormed over to the bar and blindly poured myself a drink to quench the burn

CHAPTER 34RUBY’S POVThe dancers began to murmur among each other as their surprise skyrocketed and I stared at Dax, trying my best to figure him out and why he was doing this but he was giving nothing away.He still stared back at me, his hands tucked into his pockets and his eyes held amusement in their depths while he watched me.Losing my temper, I stormed toward him and pulled his hand out of his pocket then I held it and without a word, I pulled him out of the office to follow me.I could hear the dancers gasping and murmuring even louder. I knew they were going to make assumptions, false accusations, and even try to diminish my image out of jealousy but it was all nothing compared to my life eight years ago so I didn't care, I could survive this.I was there to work for a living, not to make friends with fake ass women.I stopped walking once I got to my dressing room, then I opened the door and pulled Dax in along with me before slamming the door shut and facing him.He didn'

CHAPTER 36RUBY’S POV“Clarissa Tovaro, do you like Simon Benson?” I asked her and she blinked before looking away with a chuckle.“What are you talking about? Of course not, Ruby. Have you forgotten we don't get along?” she denied but I wasn't convinced because I could see through whenever she was lying… all the time.“Say something more believable, Clarissa, because you aren't convincing me at all,” I told her and she groaned.“Even if I do like him, it won't change anything, Ruby so drop it” She tried to end the discussion but that wasn't going to deter me because I was going to drill answers out of her until Dax returned.“Too bad I'm not dropping it. So you'd better talk before I change my mind about helping you here and leave” I threatened her and she face palmed without uttering a word back at me this time.“So tell me, Clarissa, do you like Simon?” I asked her again and she groaned for a second time before she peeled her hands off her face and looked at me.“Yes, Ruby. Yes, I

CHAPTER 38RUBY’S POVI panted hard as I looked down at Dax and my heartbeat increased even faster before I nodded my head to give him the go ahead and I saw his eyes brighten before his grip on my thighs tightened and he dipped his face in between my legs.I gasped immediately he lapped his tongue against my clit and my body buckled in response before he held me down and licked even harder and faster. It had been way too long since I got with anyone so having him work those wonders on me made me react even more and soon, I was flying up toward cloud nine, and I could feel the end coming soon. I was so close but I wanted more for a while so I held back and dipped my fingers into his hair. He brushed his tongue against my dripping cunt and sucked all my wetness, making me writ beneath his mouth and he sucked even harder, not coming up for air even once.Then he let go of one of my thighs and dipped his middle finger into my pussy and I jolted from the gesture before opening my eyes to

CHAPTER 40RUBY’S POVDennis was ecstatic when he heard what I had to tell him and he urged me to get more information so he could get to work and snatch the contract from Dax as fast as possible. The call finally came to an end and I tried to sleep but I couldn’t. Thoughts of what happened between me and Dax the previous day and my struggle to make up a plan on how to get more information from him about the contract filled my head and it made it difficult for me to go back to sleep.With a groan, I sat up and I knew I had to distract myself for a while to get rid of thoughts of Dax for that moment.Grudgingly, I got down from bed and made my way to the bathroom where I had a quick bath and dressed up in a yellow sundress after I got out of the bathroom. Then I held my hair up in a tight bun since I didn’t want it down my shoulders and I wore a pair of sandals intending to look very casual before I grabbed a brown purse, placed my necessities in it, and made my way to the living roo
