BOUND BY THE BILLIONAIRE LAWYER.
What is the enmity between you and Maxwell?
Drake didn’t answer immediately. His eyes were fixed on the fireplace, its ashes long cold. When he finally spoke, his tone was heavier, touched with something that almost sounded like guilt.
“It’s a long, complicated story,” he said.
“I’m not going anywhere.”
He sighed and met her gaze. “Maxwell used to be my closest friend. We were inseparable once. Until Freddie.”
Sophie stiffened. “Your ex-fiancée?”
Drake nodded slowly. “She was the love of my life, or at least… I thought she was. We were engaged. We had plans. Dreams. Then one day, she left. No explanation. Just a letter. A few months later, I found out she married Maxwell.”
