My Possessive Billionaire Boyfriends 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 5

PAIGE The office cafeteria buzzes around me, but I don't hear any of it. I poke at my sad salad like it personally offended me. Sadie sits across the table, scrolling through her phone with one hand and shoving fries in her mouth with the other."I'm telling you," I say, stabbing a tomato. "I must be the most unlucky girl on the entire planet."Sadie looks up, one eyebrow raised. "Girl, please. You are the queen of exaggeration. You once said you were dying because you had a papercut.""That papercut got infected.""It was red for one day."I groan and drop my fork. "Sadie. Listen to me. Really listen.

There's a difference." She walks over and fixes a strand of my hair. "You look beautiful. He's gonna lose his mind."  My phone buzzes.  Marcus: Outside whenever you're ready.  "He's here," I breathe.  "Then go." Sadie pushes me toward the door. "Text me everything."
