Lahat ng Kabanata ng Betrayed Love: Stuck Between the Billionaires : Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

EvaThe room was completely silent, everyone staring with slack mouths and wide eyes. It took everything in me to not react the same way. I was completely dumbfounded. Fiancee? We had been taking it slow for the past year and now he was openly announcing that I was his fiancee?I looked up at him while his face was still faced towards them. I was out to speak but I halted. The more I looked, I found that there was something in his eyes that made me pause and second guess.Despite his face and smile looking relaxed he also looked tense in a way, his hold on my waist gentle yet firm, as if he was begging me to not move or do anything.Unless…he was doing this for me?The realization made my insides curl in a warm feeling. Now I understood his intentions. I didn't know how much he had heard before coming here, but it was enough for him to do this. Earlier I was being declared as a nobody and no matter what I did, nobody would have backed me. Him announcing me as his fiancee changed eve

EvaThe Reynolds had a lot of pride. Even if Jon and S. Corps rose high miraculously quickly, in their eyes he was still one man compared to a generational long-standing enterprise.Aside from the scandals taunting their name, their financial situation was kept under wraps. Nobody knew about the partnership between S. corps and them. In the eyes of others it would seem necessary but damage their pride.Everyone seemed to hold their breaths with shock. I squeezed his hand, half signaling for him to not tread any further but he didn't budge. Jon pulled me close to him gently before he continued.“The true culprit may have been found, but it doesnt change the fact that my fiancee was still wrongly accused, insulted and humiliated. If I hadn't come here just in time, worse things could have happened to her.” he said in a loud voice, looking at the other socialites around before looking forward.“Mr Reynolds, I believe you know the essence of pride. Even though I didn't start out like the

EvaA loud groan made me blink up blearily. Had I fallen asleep?The sun was even brighter now, illuminating my room. I grew alert instantly.‘Shit.’Today was a workday. I had overslept without thinking and if I didn't head out soon I was going to be late.I sat up immediately only for a large arm to wrap around me, pulling me back until I felt his breath against my back.“Stay,” Jon groaned right before he kissed my back, “Don't leave me alone.”His hoarse yet grumbling tone brought a smile to my lips. How could such a ruthless businessman act like an adorable child?Turning around to face him I became aware of our bare bodies linked together. Warmth spread thro my belly but I couldn't let it get anywhere. Instead I planted a loud kiss.“You can rest here. I have to go to work.” I said.“It can hold off until tomorrow,” he groaned, planting a deeper kiss,“You've… worked so hard …for the past …two.. weeks. You deserve…some rest.” he said, pausing each word with a set of kisses.“I do

Eva“I was wondering when you'd show up.” Grace said, moving forward to hug me. I accepted her hug, separating with a small smile.“Good afternoon to you too Grace,” I greeted back. It was only with Grace's help that I was allowed into the mansion. Looking around though I couldn't help but notice how empty the place looked.“Is anyone inside?” I asked. I had hoped nobody was.“Richard is curled up somewhere recovering from his hangover, but nothing else.” She said.“Your car is in the garage, but I would like it if you stayed for a little while. You've come a long way after all.” she said.My lips twitched into a small smile.“Thank you,” I said, letting her lead me into the living room. “Actually, I have some things to ask you.” I said offhandedly “So do I,” she said, narrowing her eyes at me, “You've been keeping plenty of secrets already, eh?”A chord of fear struck within me as she frowned but it fled away as soon as she smiled again replaced with relief. I didn't want her to be

Brienne“That BITCH.”Curses left my lips as I drove through the streets. I wanted to rage and destroy shit just to make myself better, but I couldn't. Thinking of her face alone filled me with so much rage already. Sucking in a breath I closed my eyes.“Calm down Brienne.” I muttered to myself. This was not the time to be so riled up.So what if she knew or suspected anything? Whether it had anything to do with what happened two days ago or back then, There was nothing she could do.I forced myself to calm down, focusing on driving to my destination to meet HIM.My nose wrinkled as I spotted the building I was looking for. The place he'd reserved wasn't one of our usual spots, less luxurious but I wasn't gonna to complain so long as it fit the bill. He knew my bottom line requirements. So long as the place was covert enough and had as much class to suit my taste, it was enough.This place fit the bill, at least from the outside. The place was at the edge of the city and it looked is
