Bed Of Lies; A Billionaire’s Sinful Desires のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Maeve “I have been trying to reach you since yesterday! You knew we were meeting the old man today, and yet you refused to take my calls.” I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at Evans’ words when he walked to my car as I parked in the parking lot of the venue of our meeting.The past month has been very busy for me.When I say busy, I mean busy in a good way. The contract has been going just fine.We visited the site, took surveys, and made plans that we can only implement once Evans and his team are done with construction-related work.Since it’s a very big hotel with so many renovations to be done, we were looking to start work officially in two months which might be long for others but not for us because it gives my team and me enough time to work out everything that we need to give our client the best job.It’s been a really wonderful month even outside my work because my sister got discharged after spending nearly a month in the hospital and she has been doing really great unt

Maeve“Andro.” His name came out of my mouth in a soft whisper in the same seconds he saw me.Last time I saw him, it was night, and even with the light, I hadn’t seen just how gorgeous he had been.Right now, he looked all shades of manly and absolutely stunning in his Armani suit.His hair was slightly shorter than it had been nearly two months ago.I could still remember sifting my fingers through his hair and grabbing hold of a fistful as his mouth worked between my legs.I shivered as memories of our time together flooded my mind and I had to fight to push those memories away because the timing wasn’t right.We weren’t supposed to meet again like this.I saw the look of delight in his eyes seconds before he masked it and frowned as his eyes went to Evans who for some stupid reason was closer to me than I thought.At first, I didn’t realize why he frowned until I realized his grandfather must have told him about Evans and me.My heart sank. This isn’t how I hoped we would meet a

Alessandro Maeve. For almost two months I have been looking for Eve and not once did it cross my mind that she didn’t give me her full name. If I had known I was looking for Maeve not Eve maybe it would have made my search easier. I did everything I could. Called thousands of numbers and searched every single day and yet I couldn’t find her. I never for once thought that the woman I spent so much time looking for was very close to me. It never once crossed my mind when my Nonno kept talking about a certain Ms. Fitzgerald that it would be the one woman that I have been looking for. Now, she sat across the room and I couldn’t even fucking rejoice. I am still trying to process what I found out not long ago. I refuse to believe that what my grandfather told me is true so I am going to wait until this meeting is over and I am going to ask her myself. Right now, the only hope I have is the fact that both she and the bastard she is supposed to be married to have different

Maeve“What did you just say?” I sifted my fingers through my hair and sighed.“I am married, Andro, and Evans is my husband. I am sure you are already aware of that since your grandfather even introduced us to you as husband and wife.” I hated every word that came out of my mouth but I had to keep going.“How long have you been married? Were you married when we met? Or did you get married after?” He asked me. I wanted to lie and say that it was after but I knew he would easily find out since we gave his grandfather a different date.If I told him I was already married before we slept together, I knew it would hurt him so I just avoided the question.“What does it matter when it happened, Andro? I am married and that’s it!” I told him firmly doing everything to pretend like I wasn’t affected by his reactions to my words.“It matters, Eve! It fucking matters and you are going to tell me! Was that why you left before I got back? Did you suddenly feel guilty for sleeping with another

Maeve“No!” I cried out as my hand flew to my hand. I checked the content of the email again, hoping that I was wrong but no matter how many times I read it, it still said the same thing.“Why?” I let out?Was this his way of punishing me? by putting my contract with them on hold? There’s no way he would have reviewed it already.The email practically said my contract with them is on hold until a discussion and conclusion are reached.Which discussion? Which conclusion? The meeting ended less than thirty minutes ago.There’s no way he found something wrong in the contract already unless this was his way of punishing me.Was this what his parting words meant?Surely, he won’t be so petty because of this, right? right?I didn’t know what to do. I opened my car again instead of driving away.“Check your email!” I told Evans who looked confused at first but then took out his phone and checked his email.“Why?” He asked after checking.“Didn’t you get an email from them?” I asked him.
