A Night With The Drugged Billionaire のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

The next day, Eva arrived at work to find her lawyer waiting for her in the lobby. Her briefcase sat at his feet, and she stood as soon as she walked in."Miss Sinclair," she greeted professionally, giving her a quick nod."Morning, Ms. Bryant. Right on time," she replied.They headed into the conference room where the lawyer laid out all the paperwork: the official documents for the restraining order against Daniel and the pre-filed lawsuit for damages and harassment. Eva read each page carefully, signing where needed, her hands steady even though her heart beat a little faster with each pen stroke.Once the last document was signed and filed electronically, Ms. Bryant packed up her things."That's everything," she said, rising to her feet. "You've taken the right steps.""Thank you," Eva said sincerely. "I appreciate you doing this so quickly.""My pleasure. You deserve peace of mind."They exchanged a brief handshake, and then she left. Eva exhaled deeply as she walked back to her

Daniel had just woken up with the supposed love of his life by his side. He rolled onto his back and stared at the ceiling, trying to shake off the discomfort that clung to him like morning fog. He glanced over at Vivian, who was still asleep beside him. Her face was caked in last night's makeup, and her lips were overly plumped, her nose unnaturally pinched from another round of plastic surgery. Her blonde extensions spilled across the pillow in a tangled mess.Daniel sighed heavily. This wasn't the same woman he had met years ago. Back then, Vivian had charm, confidence, and a fire that drew him in. Now, she looked like a shallow, overdone bimbo. The surgeries had stripped away everything authentic about her. He barely recognized the woman beside him, and lately, he could hardly stand the sight of her.He was about to lie back down and close his eyes again when a loud pounding echoed from the front door downstairs. Irritated, he swung his legs out of bed and tossed on a pair of swea

After leaving the hospital, Eva stayed true to her word and brought Elijah to the café downtown that he loved. It was a small, cozy place with pastel blue walls, twinkling fairy lights above the counter, and the smell of sweet pastries dancing through the air.Elijah's eyes lit up the moment they walked in. He skipped over to the display case, pressing his little hands against the glass. "Mom! They have the confetti cake!"Eva smiled, grateful for any excuse to see him happy after such a stressful day. "And what kind of ice cream do you want?" she asked."Vanilla swirl with sprinkles!" he grinned.Eva ordered a slice of confetti cake and a scoop of vanilla swirl for Elijah, and just a cup of tea for herself. They sat at a table by the window, the sunlight casting golden patterns across their plates. For about thirty minutes, they talked, laughed, and enjoyed the simple pleasure of dessert and quiet time together.When it was time to leave, Elijah was sticky and content, his cheeks pin

Dorian had been stressing about not spending enough time with Eva. His workload was relentless, and though he knew she understood, it still gnawed at him. He missed her laugh, her presence, the way she always looked up from her desk with that spark in her eye. So today, he decided to do something about it.He carefully packed a picnic basket that morning with some of Eva's favorite foods, grilled chicken paninis, a tiny charcuterie selection, strawberries dipped in chocolate, and her favorite bottle of champagne. He even added two crystal flutes and a small bouquet of white roses wrapped in parchment paper. He wanted everything to be perfect.Before heading over, he called Eva to make sure she was still in the office. He didn't give her the slightest hint of his plan, keeping his tone casual. She sounded a bit busy but happy to hear from him. That made him smile.A few minutes after twelve, Dorian pulled up to the office building. The early afternoon sun shimmered against the glass fa

"Eva, I finally got a call from that Kevin Trent guy," Leeann announced as she zipped up her skin-tight black dress. They had just wrapped up a hectic week completing two major projects back-to-back and were closing the office an hour early to reward themselves.Eva stood across from her in the sleek office bathroom, applying a final touch of lipstick in front of the large mirror. The scent of vanilla body mist and expensive perfume lingered in the air. They had brought a change of clothes to work and had taken turns using the shower in the staff lounge, a little luxury they both appreciated after a long day."Took him long enough," Eva replied, pressing her lips together to even out the lipstick. She leaned closer to the mirror and tilted her head. "What did he say?"She had met Kevin over two weeks ago at the department store, and though he'd promised to reach out, she had almost given up on hearing from him."He said he needs a consultation," Leeann replied as she adjusted her ches
