The Billionaire's Arranged Love Game のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

LONDON AND JEALOUSY The next day in London was a very stressful one for all of them. They got into the whole preparations for the deal that morning, this was an everybody's hands on deck type of thing. The main deal itself was by 6pm that evening so they still had little time to kill before then. The client had coincidentally picked out the hotel they were staying at for the deal and Emily had never been so happy. It was 12 in the afternoon, Cassie and Brad had decided to go out for lunch before the client arrived. Emily could smell something going on between them but she didn't want to acknowledge it just yet. She was glad her best friend and James's were getting along just fine.“Do you want to go get lunch?” James asked her, heat rose to her face as he remembered what happened between them last night. It wasn't anything like you're all thinking. The room was big enough for like five people but Emily couldn't let James sleep on the couch, she knew how uncomfortable that could be

LEAVING Emily's world shattered as she stared at the scene before her. James sat in the middle of the bar and a very beautiful woman clutched to him as they shared a kiss. A sharp pain went through her heart, she tried drowning out all the sounds in her surroundings but it was impossible. She choked out a gasp, She turned away and walked back to the lobby. She wiped unshed tears from her eyes.“Emily, did you find him?” Cassie was the first person to see her leaving. “Are you alright?” Brad followed with a concerned look. Emily tried hiding her face from them but they could tell something was wrong. “Everything's fine, let's just go.” Emily replied, clearing her throat. Brad and Cassie looked at each other, they knew something was wrong but didn't ask further.“If you say so.” **********James woke up the next morning with a sharp pain to his head. He rubbed his eyes, the lights coming in through the curtains making his hangover worse. The scenes from last night replaying faint

PARISIAN TRUCEThey secured the deal. It was definitely more challenging than London but the partnership was finally sealed. Everything concerning business has been dealt with. They had three days left in Paris and Emily worried about being alone with James for those days. The next morning, the people in Paris are either morning people or they don't sleep. The streets are filled with people from different places. Different cafés preparing for the hordes of people, tourists walking around with cameras hung over their shoulders. James walked into the room from the bathroom, his hair was still wet from showering. He saw Emily working on something on her phone but he didn't want to disturb her. Things with Emily had him on edge, he was to blame after all he was the one who got drunk and made a dumb mistake. Thinking about everything that led to that horrible day made him uncomfortable again. The phone call. He planned on telling her about the phone call soon but in the meantime, he'd

THE NEXT DEALFor the next five hours. Emily, James, and the others prepared for the deal in Tokyo. Emily had a feeling that it would be their hardest yet. And she prayed to all that was holy that it didn't go that way.Leaving Paris made Emily feel a sense of bittersweetness. She knew that they were initially there for business, but the things that happened after securing the deal was what made her emotional about leaving. Her and James's relationship was stronger than ever. They were married, but it felt like they just started something real.Something even better and stronger than the marriage. She knew they'd face different challenges along the line because this wasn't just about business anymore. It was about their future together. The future they were trying to build. Packing their things wasn't an issue. The airport wasn't even as crowded as she expected, so boarding their plane was hassle free. “You're all packed?” James asked. Coming to stand next to her as their luggage

SHADOWS IN THE OFFICE The tension in the office was palpable. Every employee worked effortlessly and tirelessly on their parts. They didn't speak about what was happening in the office, but they knew what was happening. James walked into the conference room that morning, and even the receptionist looked drained. It got to her, too? He saw Isaiah and the rest sitting in their various seats. Emily sat next to him. A bunch of files were arranged neatly in front of him, despite everything happening in the office, he looked to be the one who was still well put together. James doubted if anything could disorganise him. Since Tokyo, things have been weird between them. And it so happens that this problem started after Isaiah went back to New York. They've been trying to manage most of their clients while him and Emily worked on damage control of the office.“You're here quite early.” James said as he dropped into the chair beside Emily. It had become a habit, staying close to her whenev
