Chapter 31: Deep SoupSamantha POV…I wasn’t fully gone when I saw Adrian snatch the door open and stride out like he was rushing to something urgent, something that desperately needed his attention. Just watching him leave, a wave of relief washed over me.“I hope he stays there forever,” I hissed.The words slipped out before my sense could stop them. What if someone is listening? I clamped my lips shut and looked around.I exhaled when I saw no one. I was already scared of the maids. They were capable of exposing me, just like the last one did. Bitches.I wanted to go back upstairs, but I stopped in my tracks. The television was on. I could watch a movie before he returned. It was better than staying in my room alone with my thoughts.I went back into the parlor and dropped onto one of the couches. The softness of the expensive furniture swallowed me, and I sank into it.I sighed in pleasure. It felt like the couch was massaging me, coaxing me to sleep at the same time. I could st

Chapter 33: One Simple Confession Samantha POV… .Minutes after Steven was gone, I didn’t want to believe he had just left. I wanted to believe it was a dream, an evil dream that I never had to carry in my heart so long, but of course life doesn’t work that way. It was clear, clear as day. He was definitely here. His wicked chuckle replayed in my head continuously. The more his eyes sits on my stomach with shock and the way he struggled to believe it at first. I dipped my hands into my hair and fell weakly, “Just when I thought it was over” I bite myself painfully. “Just when I thought all I had to do was avoid Adrian until it was time for the contract to be over” I hit my chest trying to ease the pain slowly building up. “So what am I supposed to do now? What am I supposed to do in such a situation?” I hit my legs on the floor painfully. Why is the universe so much against me? I turned to the heavens blaming my parents. I thought you two are supposed to be protecting me f

Chapter 35: Cheat CodeValeria POV…I sat in the garden, my left leg resting on my right. A champagne glass sat beautifully in my left hand, and I rolled it continuously, absentmindedly. On several occasions, the champagne almost escaped the glass, but I steadied it quickly before it found an escape route.“Caesar!” I chuckled and turned to my right-hand man. He sat beside me, gulping down a glass of wine. “Give what belongs to Caesar to Caesar, right?” I smirked lightly.I watched a chuckle cross his lips. “You got that right, Valeria. Give what belongs to Caesar to Caesar. The words never grow old.” His reply surged my confidence.“That’s exactly what I’m talking about, Markus. Exactly that.” My chuckle came out louder this time.The cool evening breeze swept across my face, toying with my long pink hair as it scattered around. The huge trees standing at every corner of the garden were responsible. Not a single breeze passed without them shaking off their leaves and hallowing the w

Chapter 37: Let’s SeeAdrian POV…“Oh dear! I don’t need anything from you right now. Just expect me in your house next week. And if you try to stop me, I will expose your beastly secret to the world, and you know what that means for you.”Before I could respond, the call ended abruptly. The silence rang loudly in my ears. I blinked twice, struggling to digest everything that had just happened. One problem after another, just when I thought I had control, another storm appeared.I stared at my phone, rage boiling inside me. Familiar… familiar… too familiar.How many times do I have to warn you not to bite more than you can chew? Do not dare.“You want to end me?” I scoffed bitterly. “Let’s see who gets ended.”I tried calling her back, but it was pointless. An unknown number, no access, no trace. My anger only intensified, my hands curling into tight fists.I just hope I don’t get to you before you get to me, because if I do, you’ll regret ever crossing my path.I can’t stop here. I

Chapter 39: Thin LineSamantha POV……I gulped fearfully. “What exactly is in the room? What exactly is lying in that room that he is so scared of?” My curiosity piqued. I needed to find out the truth, but how?As I stood there, my mind ringing with so many thoughts, I suddenly felt a strange sensation. My mind whispered, What if he is coming? I wanted to brush off the thought, but it grew louder, and then I heard his footsteps approaching.They were slow and calculated, but the silence between us made it hard to miss.I looked around. I needed to escape before he caught me here, but how and where do I hide?There was no hiding place in sight. It was just a long, endless hallway. How do I get away from here before he catches me? My heartbeat tripled, and my fear sank deeper. “What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do?” I was losing it.Just when I thought I was losing my mind, I suddenly sighted a small opening. I remembered seeing it before, but I didn’t know where it led, an
