Dallas' POVI propped up my chin with one hand, staring at the outside of the office that seemed to be full of buildings and a cloudy sky. I heard some voices presenting one of the work projects at the beginning of the month, but I was more worried about Arabella, who never contacted me again after my call a few days ago. That little girl seemed to have forgotten me since we weren't living together."Mr. Dallas? Excuse me... what do you think of our project?" asked a woman who looked nervous but maintained her polite position after she finished introducing her team's hard work.I looked at the three female colleagues who were also looking expectantly at me, and then my gaze shifted to their presentation sheets, flipping through each sheet quickly while marking the parts they should improve to make this team-made project go better. I looked at the woman standing as the team leader, then at her three colleagues. "Some things are still unclear and need to be added. Give your work back to
Dallas' POVI returned home after the meeting, leaving my other work behind to rest faster. Summer seemed excited by my decision and thanked me several times, but I just smiled because I found it funny and left her on the phone.I was still thinking about Arabella on the way home, as well as Sean's phone call that ended just like that. When I was about to call him again, the man's phone was off, which gave me the urge to call Arabella."No, don't call Bella," I muttered a few times and ended up ignoring my phone completely, relying only on Summer during the meeting and focusing entirely on my work.Now, I sank onto the sofa, staring at the house's ceiling, which seemed higher than usual. I didn't expect that the place I originally lived in with Arabella would feel even bigger and emptier once that girl left. There was no welcome when I came home, nor was there the smell of home cooking that Arabella always tried to make for me.When I thought about it again, I realised something that
Dallas' POV "What's what?" Wanda asked back, looking confused by my sudden change in attitude, but I had no desire to answer because I was busy with the many thoughts in my head that were immediately overwhelming.Wanda's words still rang, making me feel cheated by Sean and Arabella. Those two people didn't tell me anything other than that Arabella was fine. I thought nothing had happened other than that. My hands were clenched into fists. "So they really wanted to hide it from me.""Did Arabella not tell you?" Wanda asked. I gave her a sharp look and stood up, ignoring the rest of my food as I had no appetite. "Ah, damn. I shouldn't have said anything to you. I made a mistake because of my mouth again, damn it."I walked quickly after paying the bill, eager to get home, but Wanda was still chasing me and trying to stop me. "What are you going to do, scold Arabella again?" She yelled and stopped me in my tracks. I caught my breath and turned around, seeing the woman who had regained
Arabella's POVI scrubbed the table where the customer had recently left it hard, venting my frustration after receiving Dallas's call that he still wanted to interfere in my life. He was still acting like that to me even though we hadn't lived together for a long time, and I was out of his reach."Bella, hey. Slow down and clean up the desk a bit." I heard the words of one of my coworkers at the beach cafe. He picked up my slightly reddened hand. "See, you're hurting yourself. We can't afford to be understaffed in a crowded situation like this, you know?"I smiled unpleasantly, telling the truth. "Sorry, Ty. I had some thoughts that were bothering me." I should have been more in control, but the anger that Dallas was still able to keep tabs on what I was doing even when I told him not to make me furious.Ty shook his head. "Just tell me for relief, but quickly. We have a couple more hours to work but only half an hour to rest. Time is precious here." He looked serious, folded his arm
Sean's POVI was staring at my clenched hands when I heard the bathroom door open. When I turned my gaze there, I saw Arabella with a stunned look.She looked beautiful and seductive in a towel that only partially covered her body, not hiding her bulging cleavage and the curves of her legs that were slim and shiny due to her healthy skin. I silently swallowed when the memory of our time together flashed, but quickly took a deep breath to control myself. I must not forget what I had come to Arabella's room for."Bella, we have something to talk about." I stared at her face intently so as not to be distracted by the young woman's more seductive body parts."Turn around!" Arabella shouted with a bright red face, tightening the towel around her body and quickly positioning her hands like wings on her exposed breasts. "Why did you suddenly come into my room, Sean?"I turned around at Arabella's request, relieved to be given space to think more clearly even though I was still imagining her
Arabella's POV"Go away! Get out of my room, Sean!" I screamed as I struggled, trying to break free from Sean's hand grip that was starting to hurt my wrist. I realised that Sean's body was bigger than mine, but I still tried to get away from him. I punched, pushed and gripped the casual shirt he was wearing tightly.My efforts were almost successful as I felt his grip loosen, intending to run back into the bathroom and lock the door, but before that could happen, Sean had already pulled me into his firm embrace. My face pressed against his chest as he whispered above my head. "I won't let you go until you calm down, Bella."I was pensive momentarily, my hands resting on Sean's shoulders while he tightened the embrace. I could hear the sound of his heartbeat so close to my ear, his warm skin even though he was still covered in clothes and his distinctive masculine scent. I almost drifted off as the sound of his breathing soothed me, but I was reminded of the betrayal he had committed
Arabella's POVI closed my eyes tightly, continuing to scream while maintaining my position, covering my body parts with both hands. I was hoping that if I continued like this, Sean would come out of my room and leave me alone, but on the other hand, I also wanted him to do something that I secretly wished for, even though I never revealed it to him."Shh," Sean whispered soothingly. I could feel his hand smothering my mouth so easily that it prevented me from screaming. When I opened my eyes, I swallowed while Sean's hand formed a finger over my lips. "Calm down, Bella. You'll only wear yourself out if you keep this up."I swallowed more saliva and finally silenced my own mouth, looking at Sean, who seemed to let out a sigh of relief and then moved his finger away. "I've already seen your naked body, so why do you still feel embarrassed?" He looked clueless but kept his eyes focused solely on my face. I could see his Adam's apple twitching restlessly due to the man's self-defense. "Y
Arabella's POVI let out another strong sigh from my mouth, enjoying the pleasure Sean was giving me with his kiss. The man was leaving traces of his love on my body while I remained embarrassed as Sean continued to touch me affectionately."No matter how often, I never tire of touching your perfect curves, Bella." Sean praised me, embracing me in his warm embrace. His was still fused inside me, but he seemed to be doing it on purpose to drive me crazy.I pushed him away in annoyance, but the slightest movement like that made my still-sensitive bottom moan in pleasure. "Ugh.""Don't push yourself. I'm doing this because I want you to rest."I glared. "How can this be considered a break? You're teasing me down there, Sean... Ah." I sighed as he got back on top of me and then gave me a kiss that made me feel distracted by our condition. "I-I want to touch you too, Sean."I said after he pulled away to look at me. One of my hands was already resting on his broad chest, close to the cock
