All Chapters of FORBIDDEN INTIMACY [SPG]: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Claire's I was excited to go to Sebastian's farm. I woke up early and walked along the beach. The sun hadn't risen yet, but I was already by the sea, happily breathing in the cool air. As the sky turned orange, I happily watched the light chase away the darkness. It amazed me how much I loved nature, despite being born and raised in a highly urbanized city. I closed my eyes as the first rays of the sun hit my face. The sun wasn't hot yet, so I let it warm my face. It felt so good to be in this place. If I could, I'd want to live in a place this peaceful and beautiful. I walked barefoot along the beach, deliberately walking in the water. Every time the waves hit my feet, it sent a new kind of calmness inside me. The calm sea, the rough sand under my feet, and the cold breeze made my heart feel at peace. “Claire!” I turned to see Seb running towards me. The sky was bright, and the blue sea glittered. “God! What are you doing here?” he asked, breathless. He stopped in front of me

Claire’s I stared at the swimsuits laid out on the bed, unsure which to wear first; they were all so beautiful. The adorable designs and the fine fabric were stunning. I had to admit, Seb’s secretary had excellent taste. She’d chosen such gorgeous clothes and bikinis for me. I picked up a two-piece yellow swimsuit. It was a bandeau-smocked swim top with a skimpy leopard-print bottom. I bit my lip, imagining myself wearing it, running on the beach with Seb chasing me. I was laughing as I sped away, but he caught me, spinning me around with the sunset as a backdrop. I laughed and shook my head at my thoughts. The longer I was with Sebastian, the more…adventurous my thoughts became. I just laughed at the mischievous things running through my mind. I dismissed the thoughts and focused on the swimsuits, deciding which to wear first. I finally chose the leopard-print one, to tease Sebastian a little. It was payback for his womanizing. A little tease wouldn’t hurt, right? I giggled at t

Claire’s “Are you sure this outfit is okay?” I asked Seb for what felt like the hundredth time today. I’d looked at myself in the mirror probably a hundred times and still wasn’t sure whether I should wear this dress. It was beautifully made, but I felt it lacked something. It was a simple royal blue bodycon dress. Although it accentuated my figure, the design was too simple for a birthday party. Mang Naldo had invited us to his sixty-second birthday celebration. He said it would be a small gathering, only close relatives and friends. I know I sounded like a spoiled brat insisting on a beautiful dress for an occasion like this, but Seb laughed when I told him I wanted to wear a gown. He said the simple dress was fine. Sebastian stood behind me, holding my shoulders, his eyes studying me in the mirror. “Babe, this dress is perfect. You look beautiful; you don’t need fancy clothes

Claire’s Sebastian was silent the entire drive back to the beach house. From earlier, he hadn’t looked at me or spoken. His face said it all; he was pissed. Too pissed to even bother looking or talking to me. His forehead was furrowed; undeniable irritation was etched on his face. Earlier, he’d glared at me when I’d declared we were going home and not to ask questions. I’d pushed him out of the kitchen, probably hurting his ego. I shrugged. It was my fault. When he’d asked Chelsea what was going on, I’d answered immediately. If I hadn’t, things could have gotten worse. I’d only tried to prevent a potential argument. He immediately hopped out of the car after parking outside the house. He went inside without acknowledging me. His steps were heavy and hurried, avoiding me as if I were contagious. I sighed deeply. I’d hurt his ego when I’d insisted he not ask about what happened bet

Sebastian’s “F*ck!” I slammed my fist on the table when the private investigator confirmed my brother had gotten that woman pregnant. Stupid! So stupid. Having an affair while married is dumb enough, but impregnating her made it worse! He never thinks. I rubbed my face, overwhelmed by irritation. My head was pounding. I couldn’t believe Niu had actually gotten her pregnant. I’m pretty sure that child isn’t his. That child shouldn’t be considered his son. Dammit! That guy is such a headache. He does nothing but cause trouble, and I’m always caught in the crossfire when he acts like an idiot. “I’m sorry, Mr. Altamirano,” the investigator apologized, as if he understood what I was dealing with. “Do you know where she lives? Did Niu visit her while I was away?” I asked, still closing my eyes. The pain in my head was radiating to my eyes. “She’s been staying at her parents’ house, sir
