Lahat ng Kabanata ng Divorcing my billionaire husband, his best friend wants me : Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

JOANNA . The decision I made, I wasn't so sure if it was the best decision to make but I really needed space. Everything was too much, too overwhelming, I needed space to breathe,to think. What would I do now? This is entirely the turning point of our relationship and every decision I take right now will have a huge impact. I was trying to be careful.. I left very early in morning and decided to lodge in a hotel for a few days until I make a decision. But whenever I remembered how everything happened, how my heart pounded fast when I saw his bare body. There was slow tension between us when I was pulling off his shirts, his abs, his muscles , his dick. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. I wanted to convince myself that it was purely nothing but lust. I don't any feelings for Luther, I don't. I need time to process myself before giving love another chance. For the past few years, i wasn't loved properly. I was forcing a man to love me. Now I don't know what to thi

JOANNA. I watched Luther leave with the woman he came with as my heart stung. I had no idea what to feel at the moment. I left Luther for space to think.. It just felt like nature was messing with my head. Everything was super weird to me and I'm trying to give myself time. But I felt extremely guilty for leaving Luther in that condition after he did everything he did to save me. I felt shitty. At the same time I had no idea what to do. Go home to Luther? I wasn't sure yet.. The confession, everything came as a shock or maybe I'm the one assuring myself that because Luther gave hints countless times, I wasn't just paying attention. I was occupied with the thoughts that I saw him as a brother and friend to the extent that no matter how my heart skipped, I didn't want to give in. I wanted a break from love. It was scary.. I haven't recovered fully from what went on with Asher, the pain of it all still lingered and Luther had been a great friend. Would it be okay letting myself lov

JOANNA. Luther continued kissing me, and I couldn’t pull away. I wanted to but I couldn'tI melted into him, lost in the sensation, forgetting entirely why I had come here or that we shouldn’t be doing this.The sound of our lips colliding filled the room, raw and unfiltered, while Luther’s hands cupped my cheeks, anchoring me to him.He deepened the kiss, sucking gently on my tongue, then planting soft, hungry nibbles across my lips, stealing every last shred of resistance I had.Finally, he pulled away, his forehead resting against mine as we both struggled to catch our breath."Luther…" I whispered, my voice trembling."You shouldn’t be kissing me..." I finished, barely managing the words.His hands stayed on my face, his thumb brushing tenderly across my cheek as he spoke, his voice low, rough with emotion."I know. But I couldn't stop. I can't."I closed my eyes tightly, feeling the weight of everything pressing down on me. “Luther… this is…” "Joanna, I can't..." he said, his vo

JOANNA.The documents in front of me blurred together. I was trying so hard to concentrate in the office. Nothing seemed to making sense. I tapped my pen against the desk, desperate to focus, but it was pointless.All I could think about was him, Luther. I'm afraid he might have done something because I'm trying to focus on my work but I just couldn't! That kiss, the way he kissed my earlobes, my neck. The way Luther's hands had cupped my face, how his lips had moved against mine like he owned them. Like he owned me. The scene kept replaying in my head over and over again. I shook my head, cheeks burning.God, Joanna, focus. Focus!But no matter how many times I tried to dive back into work, my mind kept replaying it — the pressure of his mouth, the taste of him, the way he whispered he was on a mission to seduce me and I guess he must have done something! I groaned softly, burying my face in my hands.What the hell was happening to me?Just then, movement at the door caught my eye

JOANNA. I stayed there on the floor, my hands flying up to cover my burning face. I wasn't even bothered about the pain! My heart was racing so fast it almost hurt. Shit, how did I get entangled in this situation. He caught me, he obviously did. My cheeks burned in embarrassment. "Joanna, are you okay?" Luther's voice was full of concern as he leaned down toward me."I-I'm fine! Yes, yes, I'm fine!" I stammered quickly, waving my hand in front of him, urging him to move back and give me space.Luther chuckled under his breath, clearly amused, but he straightened up a little, respecting the space I asked for.I peeked through my fingers and glared weakly at him. "What's so funny?" I grumbled."Nothing," he said smoothly, though the corners of his mouth twitched like he was trying not to laugh."I wasn't looking at you, okay?" I blurted out, my voice rushed and defensive. "I... I just noticed something on your face and I was trying to... remove it. That's all." I tried to defend myse
