Author's POV ~A thick silence ensued, and Dylan could feel his heart racing, several thoughts swirling in his head. He unclenched his fists and let his fingers relax, releasing the tension that had built up. He looked at the paparazzo from head to toe, his eyes narrowing in annoyance at his intrusive gaze and smug smile. He was in worn denim jeans, faded black leather jacket, and scuffed sneakers, with a camera slung around his neck.“How would you feel when this gets out to the public? How would you feel when everyone hears the juicy news of Dylan and Hilary's secret hideout, the intense passion between them and the lingering connection they couldn't resist. How would you feel when Scarlett eventually finds out about it, Dylan?” The paparazzo teased and winked, a smug smile on his face. Dylan's fists were balled with anger, his knuckles white with tension. Frustration built inside of him. Although he was fuming inside, he maintained a calm exterior.“You’re so unbothered about th

Ethan didn't know the right words to use. She was right after all. He'd been suspecting that she was up to something. The accusations against Jasmine were piling up, with Scarlett claiming she'd been involved in her abduction. And now, the middle-aged woman's cryptic comments about Jasmine's past seemed to imply something truly disturbing - though she hadn't elaborated, Ethan's gut told him it couldn't be good. Every evidence and accusations against Jasmine might be a coincidence but Ethan knew they weren't false. People can't just make claims over something that isn't true and he knew Scarlett couldn't just lie to the public all because she hated jasmine. Plus the woman’s remarks about jasmine were cut off abruptly when she noticed her presence. Everything wasn't just suspicious, it was blatantly obvious that she was hiding something.“It's about what, Ethan?” Jasmine repeated, her voice steady and daring. “If your suspicions and lack of trust isn't because of the public allegations

She placed it in front of her and jasmine nodded in satisfaction as the aroma wafted in her nostrils. It was a lavish spread of delicacies, including an assortment of cheese, charcuterie and pastries.Jasmine looked up at her and flashed a warm smile. “Thanks.”She glanced at Ethan and when she realised his attention wasn't on them, she dragged her gaze back to Maria and shot her a glare.“Don't you ever reveal what I told you.” She whispered, while Maria nodded after grasping the details.Jasmine picked her spoon and began eating. Just as she was about to start a conversation, Ethan reclined on his chair and cut in, “So, what's going on with your cousin? Why is she relocating from her apartment?" His voice

Author's POV ~Once he'd gotten into his car, he heaved in a deep breath, clutching his chest and feeling the rhythmic beat of his heart. His chest rose and fell as he managed to catch his breath. Finally, just finally, he'd managed to get out of George's sight.As he clenched his steering wheel, his knuckles turned white, a rush of anger fueling him. How can someone like him try to play with his feelings? Threatening to reveal his affairs to the public just to make people hate him, especially Scarlett, the woman he cherished.“Breathe in slowly, Dylan. Try to control yourself.” He said those words to comfort himself. After reclining on his chair for a few minutes, he finally started the ignition and drove across the street, making his way to the hospital.He ensured to get some snacks for Eric and Emily on his way home, knowing how impressed Scarlett would be.Alighting from the car, he grabbed the items and walked into the hospital.

Her giggles got louder, making him even more frustrated than he already was.Ethan paced back and forth, his hands balled into a tight fist. Scarlett and Dylan's laughter echoed from the phone, drawing his attention. The line was still connected and he could hear their voices. His anger boiled over as he brought the phone closer to his ears.
