Semua Bab Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap: Bab 141 - Bab 150

VIOLET. I ran out of the Hart Group like my pants were on fire, my heart slamming so hard against my ribcage, I felt like it would burst out of my chest. Dammit! How could I have not known that Lucas was setting me up?He never gave me any attention, but the moment he did, I lost my senses and ended up falling right into Sophia’s trap. That bitch! Did she have nine lives or what?Why couldn’t she just die and remain dead? Argh! I hated her with all my soul. Why did things always work out for her, while I always struggled to get what I wanted?It wasn’t fair!I never wanted her to do better than me, she had everything for fucksakes. But despite that, her grades were better than mine, she even graduated from college. All she did was pity me and act like a goody two shoes. I hated her guts and her attitude. Always giving me bread crumbs when she was very rich. I deserved better, that’s why I made it my goal to take everything that belonged to her.I did everything in my power to ma

LUCAS.“This is unacceptable! Steven, is this how you’ve raised your son? Boy, who do you think you owe your success to? Without me, you would still be fighting with your brother so he could give you some scraps in the Hart Group.”Anger flared through me, and I glared at Gregory. At that moment, I regretted ever asking him for his help. If I knew that the father and daughter duo were this unreasonable, I wouldn’t have associated myself with them. “Uncle, you helped me out when I needed help, and I’m grateful for that. However, my company became very successful due to my efforts and hard work. I don’t appreciate you taking credit for it just because you helped me. And just because you helped me, doesn’t mean I owe you for life. I had already repaid what you had helped me with, and you earned more from investing in my company than any other company. I can’t marry your daughter. I don’t love her, and I never will. I hope you understand this.” He pinched the bridge of his nose in frust

ARELLI.“Dad, let me go! I won’t ever give up on Lucas! He’s mine!” I yelled as Dad dragged me to the car, but he ignored me. When we reached the car, he shoved me inside roughly, much to my surprise. “I know you love Lucas, but I’ve just declared the Harts as my enemies. Even if he asked me for your hand, I’ll never allow you to marry him! I’ll never forget the humiliation I've endured today!”“Dad, it’s my life! I choose what to do with it! Who asked you to turn them into your enemies? I will marry Lucas if that’s the last thing I do!” “Jax, drive,” Dad instructed my bodyguard. “Keep an eye on Arelli. Make sure she doesn't go anywhere near Lucas ever again!”“Dad, you can’t ask him to do that. He’s my bodyguard, not yours!” “I’m the one who pays him,” Dad replied. “Don’t think he will be more loyal to you than to me. Jax, have I made myself clear?”“Yes, Sir!” Jax replied, making me widen my eyes. “Jax, even you? Why can’t I have anyone on my side?” I yelled in frustration. “Th

SOPHIA. “Mmmm, this is so good! More! I want more! I’ll go crazy!” “Here’s more cake for the pregnant momma,” Elena, the owner of the cake shop, said, handing me a slice of rich chocolate cake. I grinned like a child who had been given a toy. “Thank you! This cake is so good! I can’t stop eating!” I remarked, and then I suddenly frowned when I looked at myself. “I think this is my last one. I don’t want to gain a lot of weight.” “You said the last one was the last piece of cake you would eat,” Carla teased. I pouted. “You can’t blame me when Elena is such a great baker. The triplets can’t get enough of it.” Lucas let out a chuckle. “Eat all the cake you want, my love. Don’t worry about your body, I'll still love my food even if it has a lot of meat in it.” A few whistles reached my ears, making my face burn. I slapped his thigh playfully. “Mind what you say in front of our friends,” I whispered. We had all taken a day off to go to one of the best cake shops in the city. Our w

SOPHIA. “How about I pamper you tonight, my love?” Lucas’s voice reached my ears as I stood by the mirror, removing my clothes. “Since we won't be having any parties on the night before our wedding, I thought of doing something for you still,” he added. I arched an eyebrow. “And what does the pampering package include? I already went to the spa with the girls earlier today, but I wouldn’t mind being spoiled by my husband.” Lucas smirked, stepping closer with a loving look in his eyes. “Well, first, I’ll give you a body scrub, and then I’ll give you a slow massage. I’ve prepared everything.” A soft chuckle escaped my lips. “Nice… sounds relaxing, baby. You must know though, the massage shouldn’t be an excuse for you to get some tonight. Remember, we agreed to wait until our honeymoon.” “It’s not like we’ve not done it before,” Lucas said. “We can do it tonight, and do it tomorrow too.” He reached my side and wrapped his arms around me from behind. A smile curled on my lips, and
