After he asked that question, I allowed myself to fantasise about the result that dating him would bring. The aftert of our rtionship.
Marcus was not just any man. And I was fortunate to do business will em
Icouldn’t reject him to his face, partly for the fear that he may not take it wet Another part is because i don’t tous him
Dating and mammage are important to me
Sa is my revenge, but still, I refuse to date him for the sole purpose of revenge. He doesn‘ had naturally moved to something else.
serve that, So Hold him I’ll think about it. The conversation
I <b>leaned </b>into my seat.
My mind shifted to <b>Mason</b>. It has taken me a while to realize that <b>he </b>could see me from where he and Julia were seated
We were not on the same floor, but from the ceiling–to–floor window that was in the WIP session, I could look down at the VIP session
His eyes were on me. I smiled, loving the effect I had on him.
He left with <b>Julia </b>first.
He is one of the reasons why I can’t date Marcus.
What I want is revenge on Mason and I n to aplish that by ensuring that Masones back to me.
I want him to go after me. I’ll make him fall in love with me, then dump him, just like he did to me.
The <b>n </b>was to slowly get into his skin. I don’t want to make it seem like I want him. He has to want me. That is why I came to the restaurant with
Marcus.
I took a deep breath and looked out of the window. Other cars were parked around. People were walking into the restaurant while some were going dot.
Marcus said this was a gift to me. A congrattory gift for theunching of <b>Kavas </b>Construction. Maybe I’ll take it
I received a message from my assistant, “The document for the investment <b>has </b>been sent out.” She informed me
At this rate. I’ll get thend. A smile of satisfaction crept into my <b>face</b><b>. </b>
That would be a bigger step for my empire and a grand step for my constructionpany.
Due to the status of mypany, I didn’t have a problem getting investors; in fact, there were people lined up to work with me.
Looking back, all <b>I </b>could say was that I’vee a <b>long </b>way
I made <b>a </b>mental note to get victory ice cream with Liam and Mnie today.
1 drove out of the restaurant, towards the direction of thepany.
I nod my head <b>to </b>the sound of the song sting out from my speaker.
Chapter <b>37 </b>
I took a sharp turn, the building was now his sight of than, a man ran into the near
stepped on my break immediately, my tires screeched loudly on the floor.
I brushed my hair away from my face and stepped out
Lines of worry spread over my face,
I just caused an ident. I just caused an ident.
“Are you alright?” asked as I walked to stand in front of the man tasemed had fallen
There was no one there.
furrowed my brows, wondering
ot if it was an illusion. But the clearly seen him in front of my car
I turned and flinched when i saw Mason, I wasn’t expecting him.
“What are you doing here? Why would you jump right in front of my car? What if had hit you? My tone was mons out of anger than of concern.
“I’m sorry, I just needed to speak <b>to </b>you.” I crossed one hand over the other and shifted my weight from one leg to the other
“Now, what do you want to <b>speak </b>to me about?” questioned. We spoke the other day, so now what?
He cleared his throat. I didn’t expect the next words he spoke, “Who was that man? Why were you with him?” He asked Matly
I raised a brow at <b>his </b>audacity. Who does he think he is to ask such questions?
“Are we friends? Why should I answer such personal <b>questions</b>?” my tone matched his.
His eyes moved over my body, “did he <b>really </b>get you the dress?”
“Are you seriously asking me that?” his jaws ticked, and he ran his hand over his hair.
“Mason, I don’t like this. I hate it when you stop me like this. I warnedst time about reporting you for stalking and I wasn’t joking” tumed ready to grab my phone from my car.
“You <b>changed</b>.” His voice stopped me.
<b>La </b>lot. <b>One </b>side of my lips curled upwards, and as I turned, I didn’t bother to hide it.
ve changed <b>a </b>l
“You’ve
He noticed, “Let’s talk about that when the police arrive.” I opened the door and grabbed my phone.
It is you who changed me. It is you who brought this change
“You think the police would want to be involved in a couples fight?” my fingers typing on the top of my screen stopped.
“It’s funny how you’ve refused to embrace this <b>reality</b>!
He moved closer, and I didn’t bother to move, I stood rooted to the floor.
“I have so much to say <b>to </b>you.” He began.
“I have nothing to say to you.”
“Let’s go speak somewhere quieter. “I looked around it, bothered by the <b>curious </b>nces thrown at us.
He was.
Well, why wouldn’t he be? He was the the engaged.
Iclutched my phone totally forgetting about calling the police. That was just a threat
He figured:
i’ve given you a chance to speak before you blew it,” I said.
“I will nuke it quick.” i am not i
interested in going anywhere with you” My phone rang at that moment.
Mom was calling.
Lepted the call.
“Liam and Mnie want to see you. I tried to stop them, but they insisted. So we are on our way We’re close now,” She said.
I ended the call after she spoke, Looked around. I saw a car at the beginning of thene, it was far off, but could cognize the car as my mom’s.
“Fine. I’ll go with you.” I said and sighed in reliet, moving to his car. He opened the door for me to step in, much to my surprise.
He ignited the car and drove of I turned my head to the side <b>as </b>we drove past Mom’s car. Thest thing I wanted was for Liam and Mnieto se
It was better to leave my car. I can always <be </b>back for it.
Mason drove across the highway. I looked out, suddenly regretting being in the car with him,
“Why are you fighting me?” He asked, startling me. I turned to look at him. His eyes are focused on the road in front of him.
“Fighting you?”
“The contract, you know how important it is to <b>me</b><b>.” </b>
op me off” I demanded.
“Drop me
His head flung towards me.
“I <b>said </b>drop me off,” “Lam not doing that.” He turned sharply.
I know this route.
He soon pulled the car over in front of his penthouse. I Looked around, memory flooding into my head.
This ce held so many beautiful memories of both of us, although those memories were now a nightmare.
Before Victoria epted me as her daughter–inw, Mason and I had stayed here together after our marriage. And each day was more beautiful than the other. Each night was more passionate than the other.
“Let’s step down and head inside.” He suggested I shook my head.
“No, I won’t be doing that,” I stated firmly. “Whatever you have to say, say it here.
He was silent, and I could feel his gaze on me, I turned to him
He was staring at me. Or, more specifically, at the stomach,
My eyes widened, and I wrapped my hand around <b>myself</b>, covering my stomach
I could see his unasked questions. His grip around the steering softened, and he moved his hand away slowly.
“What did you want to say? You seemed eget to speak to me earlier 1” Faskad, diverting his attenten.
His eyes returned to my face.
I won’t take much of your timb. An hour is what I asked for inside the penthouseTM Ha said.
Ibit on my lower lips.
This is not a good idea, but why not? I was after making him fall fes me wo know exactly how to do that.
“Thirty minutes is all I have,” I <b>said </b>and stepped out of the cat.
He moved around,ing to try to hold my hands, but I moved my hands away skillfully, avoiding his fouth.
Buzz!
Is <b>that </b>a beei
I tried to keep my cool by walking away, but I missed my step; his hand caught me, steadying me in ce,
He was holding me and staring into my eyes. He began leaning forward, and I froze.
“Oh, there you are!” Julia’s voice resounded at that moment, followed <b>by </b>a gasp.
