A Deal With The Devil의 모든 챕터: 챕터 71 - 챕터 80

Luke slumped into a chair nearby, feeling totally devastated. Adam and Miranda shared looks of pity. “What have I done? How could I believe Celine? I should have known.” He covered his face in despair. Miranda brought him some water to get a grip on himself while Adam sat opposite his ex-employer. Although he hated his boss for everything he had done to destroy his life and career, he didn’t show it. “Have some water, please. You can call Brynne and apologize, Mr. Sylvester.” Luke looked up at the helpful couple he had unknowingly wronged for no fault of theirs. Adam wasn’t into Brynne and never could be. He loved Miranda a lot the way he loved Brynne. He understood now what it meant to love someone. There couldn’t be anyone else but the one you loved. It should be the same for Brynne, too. “Thank you.” He accepted the water. The cool liquid went down his system and he felt a little better. “Brynne has switched her phone off. I went to her house. She hasn’t been there at all. Ted g

Brynne's heart thumped wildly in its cage as she waited for Luke’s explanation. What the hell did he mean? If her love wasn’t unrequited, then what? He didn’t love her. It was only physical desire accompanied by a motive. Now his desire was met and his motive had been fulfilled. He threw her out, only to pursue her. It made no sense. If he had loved her, he would have trusted her, stood by her and confessed his love for her.“Of course, it is unrequited. I’ve never hidden my feelings from you, Luke. But you never believed me nor loved me back.” She released a staggering breath and looked away.He leaned closer and placed a finger under her chin to force her to meet his honest gaze. “You’re wrong, Brynne. If you remember, I have always chased you since the moment I saw you. You had me under a spell, which might have been love at first sight. Only I was too blind to realize it. I couldn’t resist you. Yet I was afraid to commit, to trust and, you know why. My bitter experiences with Celi

DaniellaI gaped at the drooling hot creature in front of me. His demeanor was so different from that of our boss, Benson Sylvester, that no one would believe they were related.Ted panicked and came towards me. “I’m sorry, okay. I was just trying to stop you from breaking our relationship, Dani. Please don’t complain about me.”I snickered at his change of tone, but it was Drake who reached me first and pushed me behind him.“Hey, fu*k off! After the stunt you pulled, there’s no scope for an apology. Your relationship with her is over. Pack your stuff and be prepared to leave. Grandpa Benson won’t spare you or your job. He’s on his way with the cops.”Ted looked impatient and tried to get to me, but Drake held him at bay. “Look, Daniella knows how much I love her. It was just a lover’s tiff. Can you please leave us alone?” He gave me a pleading look to support him. “Dani, why don’t you tell him about our relationship?”“There’s no relationship, Ted. You’ve been sleeping around, and I

Daniella“Thanks for the treat, Drake. I’ll get going.” He stood watching me with a disappointed look on his face. Maybe he had expected me to jump at his proposal. Who wouldn’t? But I didn’t want a rebound. Not that my relationship with Ted was normal. He had been chasing me since the day he dropped me off at home three months ago. That night, I showed him my mom’s bakery on the way, and he was too impressed with it. He had asked me about my father, and I had been brutally honest with him. Ever since he had stuck on, trying hard to win me over. I was a fool to believe he fell in love with me when all this time, he was only after my money. Therefore, it was a relief that I could get out of the toxic relationship unscathed. Now I had no wish to jump into another one. Maybe Drake wasn’t after my money. He was loaded. But he wasn’t in love with me either. His need for me was only physical, and it was worse. I didn’t want to be another one of his string of conquests. “Going where, Dan
