The Billionaire’s Contract Wife Can't Let Go의 모든 챕터: 챕터 51 - 챕터 60

Alex POV: The Trespasser Dana’s brothers look like they’ve come to ambush me.Eddie, the New York cop, is wearing a white t-shirt and dark pants, and Jack is wearing cargo pants and a flannel shirt. Together they look like two hippies.I raise a hand in greeting, a smile still glued in place. “Hey, guys. Been a while.”Neither of them smiles back. Jack’s eyes narrow to slits. Eddie’s mouth opens slightly, then closes, like he can’t decide whether to laugh or lunge. Jack breaks the silence first, his voice dangerously quiet.“What the hell are you doing in Dana’s gallery, Logan?”I shrug, trying to keep it easy. “I was in the neighborhood. Figured I’d swing by, see how she’s doing, you know, check on the place.”Eddie bends his head to the side. “Where is she?”I start to answer. “She’s—”Jack cuts me off with a sharp gesture. “No need for you to answer that.” He glances at Eddie, then back at me. “We already know the play. You kidnap our sister, stash her somewhere, then stroll in he

Dana POV: I’m A BillionaireI’m staring straight ahead at the seatback in front of me, my cheeks warm. My heart had done that stupid little jump when I first spotted him sitting beside me.And now, I can help not looking.His eyes are burning into my face too, causing my body to shake with excitement and . . . desire. Yes, desire, all the feelings I should have in this moment, desire tops the list. But it isn’t all sexual. Simple things, mostly. Like we use to do when we were married. It’s still so recent that I still remember it all.“Jack and Eddie slashed my tires,” he whispers, his voice strong with accusation.I turn my head slowly, my eyes narrowing in mock outrage. “You trespassed.”His brows shoot up. “You believe that crap? I was looking for you.”“Why?” I snap at him, meeting his gaze with a fiery one of mine. “They should’ve added stalking to the charges. Stop following me around the country.”“Follow you around—” He leans back, one corner of his mouth twitching. “I’m a bil

Dana POV: Dana, The SecretaryI’m at the office early this morning, ready to play secretary for my younger brother Derek Travis.The only thing I’ve ever done remotely close to this job was tag along to Alex’s business meetings when we were married. Most of the time I sat outside in the lounge with a magazine or lingered in the corner like decorative furniture while his actual PA handled everything like coffee orders, slide decks, and polite deflections.Alex never asked me to take notes. He just liked having me there. He said I made the room feel less like a boardroom and more like somewhere worth being.Derek clears his throat from the doorway. “Ahem. We’re going into a meeting in ten minutes.”“Okay, sir.”“Dana . . . please,” he says with a groan.I look up. He’s already in full CEO mode wearing a tie knotted perfectly, and he’s adjusting his cufflinks, ready to put a suit. I look at his face and he glances away. He’s still feeling some type of way having me working for him as sec

Dana POV: She Walks In To AlexThe meeting ends with handshakes, every important decision maker in the room murmuring promises of follow-ups. I’m on my feet before the last “thank you” lands, gathering files in a rush.Derek shoots me a quick look, about to ask a question but I’m already moving, slipping out the side door toward the restroom.When I round the corner, I stop and lean on my knees and blow a sigh out of my mouth. “Jesus . . .”I need air, anything that isn’t that conference room with Alex at the head of the table, owning every inch of it. I enter the restroom and take my time deflating for a minute. I calculate that by now, he should have left the building. Some of my worry about him leaves as I walk back to the office.I round the corner too fast and walk straight into a solid wall of chest.I gasp. “Oh!”My left toe catches on my right heel and I tip backward, my arms flailing. Strong hands catch me, one on my waist, the other wrapping around my wrist, pulling me back

Alex POV: Dana Is Not Hymar’s GirlI look away from Dana’s face, but not before letting a small, involuntary smile slip out. She gives me an expressionless gaze before looking away. She and Hymar continue to dance, his hands around her hips.She throws her head back suddenly and laughs, the sound flows under the music like a gentle current. My jaws grit when I look again and the space between their midriffs has closed and they’re practically rubbing together. I hold back an aching sigh and quickly leave them alone.It’s over. Dana belongs to Hymar now. This is what Kelly is telling me about. She’s gone and I’ll only be torturing myself if I try to do something about her and Hymar.Kelly said, move on, marry Jodie, get in bed with her and make it official. Practical advice from one man to another. I’m feeling sick again just thinking about what I may have lost. The question remains: who was that I saw her with at the back of the club? I should have asked her. Well, I didn’t because I fe
