บททั้งหมดของ Unforgettable Fragrance : His Burning Desire: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

“What is she doing here Nick?”Natalie asked, standing close to Nicholas, their bodies sticking together, her brows lifting up as she stared at Clarissa with loathing.She thought she got rid of the bitch after Nicholas divorced her but no! She lured him into her banquet, pretending to be his wife and as if it’s not enough, she even came to his office.God knows how many security checks she had to pass through.How audacious? Can’t she leave her Nick alone? Her eyes didn’t hide the hatred and glared at Clarissa as though she wants to burn her with her looks. She didn’t know why but she started hating Clarissa from the moment she saw her and wanted to destroy her smile, her happiness and her life, everything. The hatred she bore for her is deeply rooted into every cell of her body as she grew up and now it’s overwhelming her to just end her life. Since childhood, she did everything in her power to steal Clarissa’s position as Coopers princess, her friends, her things and

Natalie stood outside Nicholas’s office, her heart in vehement turmoil as she made her way towards the coffee room opposite to Victor’s cabin.She wants to question Nicholas, demand explanation for his actions and wishes to kick Clarissa out of his office but she can’t do any of that.She stormed to the coffee machine and picked up the fresh beans from the basket before grinding them, her face twisting in disgust as she recalled her mother’s lectures. She should act like a sweet, kind and innocent lady in front of Nicholas as her mother said and she’s been doing her part as generous girlfriend great but after failing in marrying Nicholas, she’s finding it hard to pretend.It’s because of her boyfriend, Nicholas Romano, who has been the same all along, who hasn’t changed a bit in arrogance, attitude and dominance. And the very same qualities of him almost ruined her life once. In six years of their dating life, Nicholas never been physically close to her except kissing. Even tho

“Rissa!”Antoine’s voice cracked from the corner of the room, startling Clarissa who is hypnotised by Nicholas’s gentle honey trap. She quickly came back to her senses, her eyes darting towards the angry Antoine and recalled her purpose of coming here. She exhaled a strangled sigh and nodded at her friend before trying to stand but Nicholas pinned her on him, not intending to let her go.His eyes bore holes on the woman in his arms, making her twist in discomfort but he remained emotionless. He was already in a bad mood for being interrupted while he was indulging in his ex-wife’s unforgettable fragrance and her immediate action of moving away didn’t please him, including the French guy's addressing of her. He knew Clarissa’s nickname is Rissa which Matilda used as her company’s name but still a man calling her with such endearment didn’t sit well with him and his anger peaked when his ex-wife is responding to him. Clarissa knew there is no use of struggling against Nicho

“Pouvez-vous attendre dehors, Antoine?”Clarissa requested Antoine as she couldn’t talk to Nicholas about her problem in his presence so she pleaded her friend to give them some space.It’s not that she’s embarrassed in front of Antoine but when she’s alone with Nicholas, he will discard his gentleman mask, bringing out his originality. Only that person will be true to her, spitting out the venom without restraints and she can finally confront him about his reluctance to sign the Defiliation documents. “Non!”Antoine rejected her request bluntly because there is no way he’ll leave Clarissa alone with Nicholas as Matilda warned him to strictly prohibit any possible chance of letting them be alone. Moreover, he knew Nicholas would blackmail Clarissa emotionally, taking her cowardice for granted. He won’t allow it. Clarissa rubbed her forehead in distress, tired of the men in the room. Why is no one willing to listen to her even for once? Is she asking them too much? Or is

Clarissa and Antoine sat at the dining table, opposite to each other, staring at the file Nicholas gave them, which is now placed on the table, waiting for Matilda to review. The drive back to home is worse than waiting in Nicholas’s office because they’re afraid of Matilda. What would she do if she finds out about the contract? “You think mama will agree.”Clarissa spoke, her voice vivid, filled with dread and caution, her mind imagining horrible outcome. “Non.”Antoine expressed his opinion, making the pregnant woman angry with his frankness but she knew he’s being honest and she need his honesty at the moment. “What do you think Antoine?” asked Clarissa, feeling suspicious about her ex-husband’s sudden enthusiasm in working with her mama. “Peut-on faire confiance à Nicholas?”No matter how much she racked her brains, she cannot come to a conclusion. Antoine shook his head at her question, being obvious about his doubts. “J’ai des doutes à son sujet, mais il ne s’
