Lahat ng Kabanata ng Married to my Ex-Fiance's Boss: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

 Giancarlo “Over here please”“Smile” “Lift your chin up a bit.”“That's it.”“You guys look so good together.” “Should we be expecting marriage soon?”Those were the questions I could filter out from the list of questions that were being thrown at us. We wore smiles, posing and turning for the camera when need be. “Keep your smile steady and hold your head up high. You're with me.” I whispered through the chaos as I noticed her getting tensed. Her hand was a bit tight in mine, but its warmth weighed lightly against my chest. I should have been focusing on the flashes—chin up, shoulders squared, effortless smile and aura—but I wasn’t. Not when she stood beside me looking like that.I knew I was making a bad choice when I chose that dress. The dress hugged her just righ

 I wouldn't have thought Enzo was harbouring feelings for me but the near kiss at the bar was evidence enough. I had moved away on time before his lips connected with mine and quickly acted drunk. He seemed embarrassed at first but I was thankful he took the clue and just laughed it off. The next day I pretended not to remember anything about that night and ever since then Enzo has paid me more attention than usual. It was clear he had feelings for me, and he was doing little to nothing to hide it. The little gestures, the compliments, the light smiles, everything was as clear as day. I couldn't tell exactly how I felt about him, but all I could say was I felt a special kind of pull towards him. Penny was another reason I couldn't put a definition of what I felt for him. She was a little bit too obsessed with him. One way or the other, Lorenzo just happened to find a way into every one of our conversations. How could I

 ClaireWhen Giancarlo asked me that question, I could feel my heart leave its position and travel to the bottom of my stomach. My heart picked its pace as I thought of any possibilities of him knowing what almost happened between me and Enzo. And now….When his words paused and his mouth slightly opened from the impending reply, it was weird. His brows knitted together, and his gaze fixed on something beyond me. Confusion tightened his features, and his mouth closed. I frowned, following his line of sight, but all I saw were travelers hustling past—families juggling bags, lovers hugging themselves goodbye, businessmen glued to their phones, and a little boy dragging a blue suitcase twice his size. Nothing out of the ordinary."What's wrong?" I asked, my voice low.He didn’t respond, didn’t even blink. His jaw shifted slightly, the muscle there taut as if he was trying to piece something toge

ClaireThe moment the receptionist told Giancarlo that getting separate rooms was against their policy, I knew I was screwed. My heart threatened to fall into the cold pits of my stomach as I recalled the requests I made. “Is there nothing we can do about it? It's my fault, I made a mistake while booking the room.” I spoke, trying not to let my nervousness shake my words. She blinked. "A mistake?"I glanced towards Giancarlo and the look on his face planted more dread in my stomach. Oh God. The candles, silk sheets, rose petals… and the handcuffs. Fuck! the handcuffs. My skin prickled with humiliation just thinking about it."Yes." I forced a laugh that sounded strained even to me. "The thing is we’re not… a couple." I paused, clearing my throat before lowering my voice. "So, uh, I need two separate rooms instead. You know how awkward it would be if we shared the same room . Help a girl in need."Her polite smile faltered. "I'm sorry, but our policy doesn't allow room changes upon c

ClaireMy boobs pressed into his chest, my forehead almost meeting with his.ni couldn't see it, but from the air hitting my upper thighs, I knew it was bare. For a few seconds I was stiff as I just stared into his eyes, enjoying the feeling of his hard chest against my soft ones. His wet hair fell over his face, hiding a part of his eyes, making him look sexy. Finally, the blood started flowing through my veins properly and I snapped out of my trance. I pushed myself off him with a strong force, I could swear I had his bone crack underneath my weight. “I–I’m so sorry… I didn't mean…I…” “Stop stuttering like you were caught having extramarital affairs.” He said in a teasing voice, relieving the tension that had built up in me. I scoffed and smiled, letting go of the breath I was holding.“Tch…you wish. And even if I was, I wouldn't cheat with someone like you.” I said, rearranging the pillows properly again. “Are you sure about that?” I opened my mouth to say something in my defe
