บททั้งหมดของ Bed Of Lies; A Billionaire’s Sinful Desires : บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

Maeve“Maeve? Are you still there?” I cleared my throat before I answered.“I am still here, Nonno, I am just surprised at the request. Is it that he doesn’t trust us to do our job properly from our respective offices?” I asked him.“Not really, he just thinks everything will go more smoothly if everyone is within the same building. It’s temporary and I will give your team a good office with a view of the city.” I smiled at his attempt to sugarcoat the offer.“Nonno, don’t worry, you don’t have to sugarcoat it and make it appealing because I don’t see anything wrong with working from the main office. Do we need to move our stuff there too?” I asked him wondering how that would work. “No, no, everything you need will be provided but they will stay in the company when the project ends.” He explained which wasn’t bad at all.It’s not like I am going to be taking any other jobs while working on the project so it won’t matter if my main office is closed.This project is bringing mill

Maeve“Why is five minutes so fucking long?” I let out in frustration. My thoughts were all over the place and I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that I might change my mind and keep the baby if I turn out to be pregnant.But I am not ready to have a baby. What baby would even want me as their mother?I literally don’t have any motherly instincts. Even while planning my wedding and my life with Evans, we never really talked about kids save for when I told him that I might not be able to have kids because of my hormonal issues.Back then, he told me he didn’t mind and that’s part of the reason I loved him even more.What a fool I had been thinking he accepted me and my imperfections.Then again, won’t it be a miracle for me to be pregnant even with my limited chances and won’t I be throwing away a big miracle by getting rid of it?Again, what if I have the baby and I turn out to be a bad parent like my birth parents who had me and gave me away without thinking twice about it?I w

Maeve“You are good at hiding your true emotions, so it might not really be hard for you.”I smiled nervously at Nora’s words.The problem is that I don’t think I am really good at hiding my emotions around Andro.I tend to react to everything he does, and I can’t even control it.“I don’t think that will work with Andro, but I will do my best. My business is more important. If this ring is what it will take to bring my business to where I dream of, then I am not going to ruin that just because I have feelings for a man I slept with one night.”Saying it out loud made it easier to accept.“That’s the spirit. Once the deal is done, you can be forward with the truth, and maybe then you might get a chance with him.”I laughed off Nora’s words because I knew that was not going to happen. Andro will never forgive me for lying to him.Also, who knows? Spending time around him might actually cure me of my infatuation with him.“That’s not going to happen, and that’s okay. Do you want me to o

Maeve“Did you consider that I had to go to my company first, and my husband also had to go to his, which is a whole different direction from mine?”He looked really goofy trying to act like he didn’t just jump to a stupid conclusion.I mean, he isn’t wrong about the divorce thing; if it wasn’t for this project, we would have been divorced, but his analytic and conclusions were wrong.“He could have driven you. From what I gathered, you guys are newlyweds, and newlyweds do silly things because they are still so in love. I doubt you even love him, seeing as you slept with me not long after your wedding. You haven’t even uploaded your wedding photos on any social app, even though new brides tend to be showy.I smirked in his face. Did he just admit to stalking me on social media?The thing is that I am not even a social media person. I don’t even run my company’s social account.Even if Evans and I had a wedding, the photos would probably not have made it to the internet. At least, not

Alessandro“Can’t you just do this for both of us? Do you really want to stay here and risk betraying your husband again?”I asked her. One of us had to leave, and it couldn’t be me because my grandfather needed me here.The regret in her eyes washed off fast after my words, and she glared at me.“Are we back to that? I don’t care what happens, Andro, I am not leaving, and you can’t make me leave, no matter how you try.”I couldn’t believe how stubborn she was, and to make it worse, the man inside me liked her stubbornness.How can I be fascinated by her stubbornness when I am trying to get over my feelings for her and move on?I think I have lost my mind. Something is definitely wrong with me.“Why do you sound so sure?”I asked her, and she smirked, not the cocky kind of smirk but one that comes when someone knows they will win.“I signed a contract, and guess whose names are in that contract?”I know my name isn’t there.“Arturo?”I asked even though the answer was obvious.“Yes, A
