Semua Bab Advantageous Contract With The Domineering CEO: Bab 191 - Bab 200

A week laterI can't find words to describe all the turmoil and chaos that has surrounded us since the accusation against Damien was made a few days ago.Yes, I did it. With Gérard by my side and having Isabella as a witness, I had the courage to report him for kidnapping at the Toulouse police department.After the judge had signed the arrest warrant, he was taken into custody on the same day at his mansion, with my bag containing my belongings and my phone as evidence.The media, press, and showbiz have gone crazy, but of course, you don't hear about a famous doctor being accused of kidnapping every day, especially when it involves the wife of a sexy businessman who's almost a Hollywood star.Needless to say, the calls to Gérard haven't stopped but at least I'm grateful they don't know where our house is, because we would be harassed for it, just like we are when we leave this place.Regarding the trial, we're waiting for the date of the first hearing. We know that the head of the h

I quickly get up from my seat and spotting the restroom, I run towards it, covering my mouth. When I finally reach the toilet, I kneel on the floor and empty my stomach into it.It's disgustingly gross, and just as I finish expelling everything, Isabella appears behind me, very concerned."Juliette! Holy heavens, are you okay?""Yeah," I say without enthusiasm, flushing the toilet.But the truth is quite the opposite; I feel horribly sick now.I wash my hands at the sink, and as I'm about to rinse my mouth, Isabella stops me."Wait, I'll get you a bottle of water," she says and hurries out."Miss Moreau," I'm addressed, and I startle, not having noticed Nora, the wedding planner, there."Damn, you scared me," I say, putting both hands over my chest."Miss.""That cursed garlic bread.""Miss, I don't think the problem is the garlic bread. In fact, I'd wager there isn't really a problem at all.""What do you mean?""You tried to deny it earlier, but I recognize a pregnant woman when I s

"Is there something you need to tell me?"I think for several seconds before answering his question, and then I speak."That day, the day I came to the house, the person who entered wrote a message on the wall of our room.""What message?""It said it was my fault and I would pay for it," I confess. "I didn't understand it well at that moment, but I think it referred to what happened to you...""That doesn't make sense; you know that nothing that happened was your fault.""Apparently that person believes otherwise. Could they see his face in the recordings?""No. Although the police are working to find something that helps identify him, Juliette, you won't be anywhere without security.""Gérard, this still seems excessive to me.""It's not. There will be security throughout the house twenty-four hours a day, and you won't leave here without them. Four guards will always accompany you.""Four? No way," I retort, firmly refusing.Who does he think I am? The president?"Things are not up

"No, you've been like this the whole damn day since I told you I'd get security, and I don't understand why that's a problem for you.""Leave, Tiberius," I say as I bump into the desk behind me."Don't call me that," he mutters through clenched teeth."That's your name, why wouldn't I?""Just because.""That's not a good reason, Tiberius," I snap, and in that instant, he presses himself so close to me that there's no space between our bodies."Don't provoke me," he warns me, so close to my lips that I can smell his minty breath."And what if I do?," I say, challenging him, and unexpectedly he turns me around, causing me to press my backside against the undeniable hardness in his pants."You get jealous just because another woman approaches me," he says near my ear, his hand wrapping around my neck without hurting me."And you're the same or worse… don't pretend," I roll my eyes."Listen to me," he asks in a husky voice, reaching his hand up inside my dress. "No one else but you gets m

My friend didn't want to continue working for Mr. Carter after what happened with Damien, so she was unemployed again and looking for a job.She had resigned from her position at Durand Enterprises to support me. It was time to pay back the favor."Darling, Chloé is jobless..." I start saying, and Gérard raises an eyebrow."Do you want me to do something for her?""Well, she had to leave her old job in your company, and I left the Carter enterprises. She doesn't want anything to do with them now, and...""I'll talk to Vincent about it, don't worry," he says, kissing the tip of my nose. "She's been with you through thick and thin. In fact, I like her more than the other one, Isabella.""You don't like Bella just because she's engaged to Dave, and he's Damien's friend, but she's a good girl," I clarify, although I had my doubts at first, they don't exist anymore."Alright, maybe I'll grow to like her over time," he says, rolling his eyes before giving me another kiss.The days went by,
