Lahat ng Kabanata ng SEDUCING MY BEST FRIEND’S DAD: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

BelleAs he walked past me, our gazes met for a second before he forced himself to look away, like he was holding back for Tania’s sake. His shoulder brushed mine. I released the breath I’d been holding as he disappeared down the hallway.Tania and I stood there alone.She turned to me, her eyes burning. “You slimy ungrateful orphan. Screw you, Belle. I thought we were best friends.” Her hands balled into fists.I stepped toward her, letting out a short breath. I didn’t bother holding it back anymore. “You know, I’m sick of hearing that. We both knew that after you betrayed me with Sam, we’d long stopped being best friends. You’ve only been shoving it down my throat. You’re not a friend to me, Tania. Friends don’t hurt each other, yet you hurt me with your words, your actions, your intentions.” “So that’s what this was about?” Her voice rose. “Sleeping with my dad… was because of Sam?”I looked right into her eyes. I didn’t look away. This was my revenge, after all, so why wouldn’t

BelleSam walked in and froze.James and I broke apart instantly.My heart slammed hard against my chest as I turned to him.James clenched his teeth, slipped his hands into his pockets, and straightened, his whole demeanor turning cold.Sam’s hands fisted at his sides. I could see it, the tension, the anger he tried to hide.“I want an updated report on the Gilliams report from your team, Miss Fox.” he said sternly. “Get it to me as soon as you can.”I cleared my throat. “Of course, sir.”James adjusted his suit like we weren’t just caught kissing a few seconds ago and walked out.But Sam wasn’t a fool.There was no undoing what he had just seen.“Damn.” he let out a dry breath. “When Tania told me, I really wanted to believe it was a lie. But seeing it for myself…I’m so disappointed in you.”I crossed my arms. “What do you want, Sam? Why are you even in my office?”“Your office?” he scoffed. “You mean Amelia’s office. The one you got your boyfriend to fire her so you could take it?”

Belle“I’m the only man in your life, Belle.” His lips found mine. “I want the whole world to know that.” He chuckled.I pulled back. My mouth twitched, but I pressed my lips together. “This is serious, James. My career is at stake.”His tongue slid across his lips. His eyes stayed locked on mine. “They wouldn’t dare leverage such an allegation against me without solid proof, which they don’t have. We’ve been careful.”My eyes dropped to my hands. “Of course they won’t.” The words barely made it past my throat. “Everyone always blames the woman.”His hand came under my chin. His fingers pressed into my skin, lifting my face.“I’m going to shut it down.”“I don’t know.” Every muscle in my body went tight. “These types of allegations don’t just go away, especially when they’re true.”“Will you trust me?”Our eyes met. My heart pounded against my chest, beat after beat. I wanted to trust him.“Yeah.”He kissed me again. His arms wrapped around me, drawing me close. He held me until my ey

JamesI came into the conference room and heard them.“If Mr. Devon isn’t the man you’ve been involved with in sexual misconduct against company policy, then who is?” Mona asked.“I am.” I responded, sliding my hands into my pockets.I heard Belle gasp.“Mr. Wilder.” All three of them from HR stood, shocked to see me.“Mr. Wilder, we understand she is your personal trainee and you want to protect her. But we have strong evidence of an alleged breach of company policy.”“What evidence is that?” I took my hands out of my pockets and went to the table. My eyes crossed Belle for a second and she stared at me, her body tense and uncertain. And then at Devon, whose first day back and he refused to stay away from my woman. But I was going to handle him later.“These photos are painting a story, aren’t they? Only one that never happened.” I gazed at Belle again and tore my gaze away. Call me foolish for deciding to trust another woman after Angelina. But there was no part of me that doubted

James“What if I could make you fall in love with me before it was over?” She stepped even closer. Her breath warmed my neck.“You’d lose. Don’t mistake my fondness for you as weakness,” I murmured. “Focus on the lover’s contract.”“Right.” Her hand slid down my body, teasing me, then resting on my cock. She gripped me hard.“Fuck.” My head fell back.“Belle.” I growled. My hands gripped her waist.She dropped to her knees. Her hands quickly unfastened my belt.“What are you doing?” My breathing grew ragged.“Focusing on our lover’s contract. Pleasing you.” She looked up at me, her eyes locked on mine.She freed me from my pants. Her hand wrapped around me. She stroked me over and over, each movement more desperate. Her thumb circled my tip.Then her mouth replaced her hand. Her lips wrapped around me, warm and wet. Her tongue traced every inch. She took me deeper. Her head bobbed, slow at first, then faster. Her hand worked what her mouth couldn’t take. She hollowed her cheeks, suck
