บททั้งหมดของ Dear Husband, I'm the Alpha's Mate: บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

~ Bella ~I ignored Parker's shocked look and kept on eating."Guess what?" He said."What?" I asked, finally looking up.He leaned close to me and whispered. "That was incredibly hot!"I laughed. I'd been concerned about nothing again, as usual. Sweet Parker!"Yeah?" I said. "Maybe next time I'll say a little something for you then."He smiled. "Can't wait!" He said.We went back to eating. A few minutes passed in silence then I remembered that I'd brought along some files to show to him."Oh right! I wanted to show you something," I said. I pulled out the files from my bag and slid them over to him.He carefully moved his plate aside. "What are these?" He asked even as he reached for them."I'm thinking of taking on a new case. These are three options I have short tlisted. I wanted to know your opinion," I said."Oh, okay," he said. He picked up the files one by one and began to read through them. While he did, I kept eating.I looked over to the side and saw that Boulin still hadn'

~ Bella ~"Wanna go on a drive?" He asked, jiggling the keys in front of my face.I sighed. "Is no a viable answer?" I asked even though I already knew the answer to that."Nope," he said cheerily and opened the door to the driver's seat. "My lady," he said, ushering me into the car.I signed and jumped in, snatching the key from his hand. He headed around the car to the other side to get in.When he was about halfway around the car, a sinister thought jumped into my mind. A smirk broke out on my face.I hit the panel by my door and the locks clicked close. Nikolai made it around to the passenger side. He looked up and first saw the look on my face. "No, no!' he mouthed first, his voice muffled through the mirror.He shook his head warningly and reached for the car door. I made sure he had time to grab hold of the handle before gunning the engine.The car roared to life. I pressed down on the accelerator and the car took off under me. I drove aimlessly for a good fifteen minutes

~ Bella ~The drive home that evening was slow; really show, as I contemplated the approach to take in presenting Nikolai's gift to me to Parker.Parker was a sweetheart so I knew he wouldn't raise too much of a fuss but he would probably have questions and I wasn't sure how to go about answering them.I loved the car so much already and I knew that even if I didn't, Nikolai wasn't likely to take the car back. So it was mine.The only other option if Parker insisted on me returning it would be to sell it off or give it away but I really didn't want to.I pulled up to the house and saw that Parker's car was already parked out in front. I pulled in behind his car and sat in the car quietly. But he must have heard my car pulling in because the door opened soon after and Parker walked out with a smile.The smile turned to a look of shock when he realized that there was an entirely different car in the parking space and I was in it.He walked towards me slowly, circling the car contempla

~ Bella ~I arrived at the station first. Nikolai was no where to be found but I wasn't surprised by that. I'd only just called him a few minutes ago.I couldn't wait for him though so I went in on my own.This station was in a different precinct entirely from the one I was interrogated at but it was still so similar that I had to stop for a second when I walked in.Officers sat at different desks or bustled around the room, taking down statements, leading people away and so on.My brain dug up my memories of that day and flashed them into my mind and I immediately had a little panic attack.No one paid me any mine. They were all too busy. And it was better that way honestly because I couldn't imagine them taking me seriously if they did and I needed them to take me seriously if I was going to help my client.We already faced enough issues as female lawyers. There was no need to add this to it.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I took a few more until I felt the bile in

~ Bella ~Dylan Shelby smiled at me familiarly. "Remember me, Bella?"I blinked in surprise. "Am I supposed to?" I asked, instinctively leaning closer to look at him. I squinted at his face.From the moment he walked into the room, he'd struck me as someone familiar but I'd assumed be simply had one of those faces.He was a good looking man, that was for sure. But wouldn't I know if I'd met such a good looking man before?Something niggled at my memory. Dylan... Dylan Shelby.... Dylan! "Oh my god! You're Dylan! Dylan Myers."He smiled and nodded. "That's right, little Bell. About time you remembered me.""Oh my gosh! You've grown do much!" Now I remembered why he looked so familiar and yet so unfamiliar at the same time.The memory of the face was over a decade younger. Dylan Myers had attended the same school as I did.He was in high school when I was in middle school. I'd had the biggest crush on him back then. I'd followed him around like a love sick puppy back then and somehow, h
