All Chapters of Abandoned at the Altar, Chosen by the Billionaire : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

CHAPTER 102YANAThe rate at which we spring apart should be a fucking phenomenon. I jump down the counter immediately, pulling back my sleeve as everything fizzles out while Luis turns back to the boiling food, picking up the stirring spoon immediately.I turn back with a small smile, and Lilica appears from the stairs, rubbing her fingers on her eyes."Hey, princess, you're awake," I manage to say, hoping I don't sound too hoarse or something. Then I rush up to her.She lets out a yawn. "Yes, I'm hungry," she replies, rubbing her tummy.I glance back at Luis, and he turns back at the same time. Our eyes meet, and I don't miss the sparks that fly between us before he faces Lilica.Oh God! Save my poor heart. I can't believe that just happened. One minute we were talking about dinner, and the next he had me on the counter. I wonder how far we would have gone if Lilica hadn't shown up.Will it just be a make-out? Would we have gone as far as having sex? Kitchen sex has always been one

CHAPTER 104YANA "Hey," Luis's voice comes from behind me, and I swing my gaze back. A small smile creeps up his face as he stares directly at me. I could tell he's walking on eggshells around me. Yesterday had been something else with his sudden confession; I wasn't expecting him to blurt that out at all. I mean, I know I have feelings for him, and even though I had an inkling he felt this way, I never thought he would tell me he loved me. Well, technically, but Luis definitely doesn't look like someone who would say something like that just for the sake of it without giving much thought to it.But even after that, I wasn't really sure of how to take it. I mean, I was expecting him to say he wouldn't want to explore it, considering the circumstances that surround him, but it just feels so weird, almost like a rejection all over again. Yeah, his confession was a bit assuring, and I didn't want it to seem like I'm forcing him to do things he's not fully committed to, but still, every

CHAPTER 106LUIS"To whom do I owe this pleasant visit?" Aunt Madelyn starts, her brows raised as I walk into the living room where she's watching the TV while sipping her coffee. I knew I had to confront her about the Adrian matter, and it's already long overdue. "I know you never visit unless I've done something. What did I do this time around?" She asks with an amusing smile as if this whole thing is something to be excited about."Did you invite Adrian?" I ask as calmly as I could. I know Aunt Madelyn always feeds off of getting me riled up, and at the end of the day, I end up getting affected by that. Of course, I love to think she doesn't have any effect on me anymore, and I've moved on from the past, but anytime I see her, I'm reminded of everything, and my heart still aches.Her brows pull together. "Adrian? Who is Adrian? Is that someone I should know?" she asks, tilting her head.I open my mouth to talk, but she beats me to it."Please, have your seat, Luis. I'm guessing

CHAPTER 108LUIS"Where the hell is Yana?" I hear Brianna whisper-yell at Valeria, a bit frantic as she looks around the conference room while I stroll in."I haven't seen her yet," Valeria replies in a bored tone."What do you mean you haven't seen her yet? Is she doing this intentionally?" Brianna snaps. She doesn't even notice my presence until she realises the room has fallen silent and everyone has returned to their seats.She lifts her head, and our eyes meet. A small smile curves out of her face."Um, Luis, did you come with Yana this morning?" She asks cautiously. My brows pull together, and I almost shoot her a warning glare. She shouldn't be asking this sort of question in front of others. We are in a professional setting, and there's a difference between personal and business life.She must have noticed my annoyance, and she immediately clears her throat."Sorry about that." She immediately turns to Valeria. "Go look for her. The meeting is starting."Valeria hurries out of

CHAPTER 110YANA "I'm sorry for pulling you out of work," I say, glancing at Luis beside me. We've been sitting together for God knows how long. I've lost track of time while watching a dating show, while Luis has been glued to his laptop. We haven't really said anything to each other since the flight started.We had to leave work early, actually, we only worked half a day and seeing how Luis hasn't taken his eyes off his laptop, I knew he was working. He probably has a lot on his plate, but because he had to accompany me to Barbados, he has to squeeze in any little time in between.Luis turns to me with lifted brows. "I already told you to stop making it sound like I'm doing you a favour. I'm not Yana. I'm where I want to be." His words sent butterflies swimming in my stomach. I shouldn't be having butterflies over something as simple as this.I press my lips together. "I just feel guilty for dragging you along."He faces me. "You're not dragging me anywhere, Yana. I'd rather be wi
