All Chapters of VOWS OF DESIRES (DS1): Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

It feels surreal, the thought hasn't sunk in yet. I can't believe what my eyes are seeing right now; they are locked onto him, and I was thinking that I had seated at the wrong table.Am I just hallucinating because I'm always thinking of Bryle?“Eli? Why are you not answering me?” I got back to my senses when I heard him speak again. He sighed deeply, with a crease on his forehead in his seat. “I couldn't reach you, then it turns out you're just here. This seems to be the reason why Madame Mathilda insists that I come here to Chengdu and accompany Mr. Greco. She probably thought that I had no idea that you were here.” He commented to the thin air, shaking his head. I pouted at what he said and tapped his arm, “I didn't think it was important for you to know I was coming here. Besides, I wasn't planning on staying long, so I didn't bother letting you know..." I whispered as my voice grew weaker and weaker. He stared at me intently, clearly displeased with the

I thought our time together would end after dinner, but apparently not—Bryle asked me to go on a road trip with him. We didn't have a plan; he just wanted to drive and go wherever the road took us. I went along, partly because I wanted to, and partly because we'd rarely get this chance again, making it all the more fun to do it again.We went to a clubhouse and had drinks. I don't know how many bottles of wine we had, we don't know. We were just ecstatic until we decided to leave the clubhouse. We headed to the parking lot. I smiled at his haste, when we got to the car he quickly leaned me over and kissed me. I immediately felt a strange sensation running through my body."Ughhh..." I moaned as Bryle lowered his kisses to my neck. I heard the sound of his car, he must have unlocked it. He grabbed my waist to pull me closer to his body, then opened the backseat door, and put me in his car.I lay down in the backseat, he quickly closed the door, and climbed

I no longer feel anxious, as Mom has already informed Dad and my cousins here in the mansion that Bryle is my fiancé. Mom also told me that Dad was really glad about it. I didn't know that Dad favored Bryle, and the reason why he was okay with Bryle staying here in the mansion is that he is close friends with Bryle's dad. Now I know why they wanted me to be married to their business partner's son—because Dad trusts the Caje family.What I should be thinking right now is about my grandfather. Granda is the only one left that I haven't informed about my relationship with Bryle. He has been really busy lately. He has a lot of appointments from here and there, so I haven't had the chance to talk to him since the day we arrived at the mansion.We'll be attending a party tonight. Mom and Dad said we all should go there because it is one of the special events that the Lee Clan needs to attend. In other words, grandma and grandpa will go straight to the party, together with my two friends—Haz

"Eli, Madame Mathilda said she's taking care of the meeting later. You can head to Blu Arte's now; isn't that where you're going to meet one of the HGS clan members?" Aeun said, tidying up the scattered documents on my desk. "Honestly, Eli, you're so messy. If Madame Mathilda sees this, you'll be in trouble again."I shot her a displeased look, trying to convey my annoyance at her continued chatter. "What's with the face? Don't give me that look; I've caught you being messy plenty of times!" she retorted, adjusting her attire. "Alright, I'm off; I've got errands to run.""Take care." My response was brief. I watched her leave my office, and only when she was gone did I exhale and lean back in my chair. I checked the time on my watch, wondering if I had any other appointments. Hmm, it seemed I didn't.I heard three knocks on the door, and when it opened, Jacob's grinning face appeared, waving at me. I smiled back, immediately noticing what my fiancé was car

"Just a reminder, you're heading to the hotel today. The HGS members are checking out the place they're sponsoring." Aeun spoke up, straightening the documents I'd just finished reading. They were scattered across the table, and I caught her frowning. "What's with the mess, Eli? You're such a sloth." As usual, she was wired—talkative as hell."I'll tidy up." I answered half-heartedly, earning a raised eyebrow from her."When was the last time you cleaned up, huh? I'm always picking up things for you. What if something important gets lost? You'll be in the doghouse with Madame Mathilda again. You just can't help it, can you?" She rattled on until she left my office. I winced, then blew out a sigh. Staring at the ceiling, I couldn't help but replay last night—Bryle at my place.No wonder I was distracted all day—I couldn't shake what happened that night. After I grabbed the salt, Bryle trapped me against the counter, arms bracketing me in. My heart
