SJ picked up the document that he is reading inside his room in his apartment late in the evening when he arrived home from Le Bernardin. His secretary messaged him that she was finally able to gather all the documents that he was asking yesterday and had it sent to his apartment.
Carmela had called him hours ago and asked him to come over, but he declined and abruptly ended the call. It was the first time that he did that ever since they started going out and he didn’t feel any remorse on his action. She knew that he was out of his friends but didn’t join them even if SJ had asked her to. He knew that she doesn’t get along with them well. His friends had never liked her ever since they started going out.
But he was glad tonight that she did not because he had no idea that Ronald will be bringing Elli with him as his date. He suspected that Florence had something to do it but didn’t point it out.
The thought of Elli smiling up at Ronald earlier this evening m
Hello, readers! Thank you for your continued support. I just want to let you know that I'm delighted in reading your comments. I want to give myself a pat on the back because I was able to convey the despicable act of the main lead that makes you hate his character. I even hate him for his actions! Lol =) The next chapters (I'm still doing them currently) will finally show the inevitable mutual attraction of the two leads. And, also the identity of the female lead. Thank you and enjoy reading!
Elli took a seat on the parking bench the following day, leaving the apartment as early as she can when she woke up for her safety from her husband’s wrath. She knew that cancelling his call late last night when Ronald had finally dropped her off, was the last straw. She even expected him come knocking that night but was surprised that he did not come.She knew he was angry but somehow, she didn’t feel any guilt for what she had done last night. She had enough of feeling sorry for herself as well as his philandering ways. If he can be as bold as that, then she will also do the same especially the public doesn’t know about their marriage yet.“I hope I wasn’t too forward a while ago,” Ronald apologized as he set down the coffee, he ordered for her. He then gave her a sheepish grin. “But I always find delight in making Kincaid lose his temper.”“What do you mean?” She asked carefully.“I know
Elli woke up to a light touch on her cheek and she slowly opened her eyes. She sat up abruptly when she realized that her head was on SJ’s lap. She brushed her hair away from her face and looked at him sternly.“You looked uncomfortable,” he reasoned innocently. “I had no choice. I don’t have a pillow with me here for you to sleep on.”“Have we arrived?” She asked instead as she sat up straight, looking out the window.“We just arrived,” SJ answered remotely as he opened the car door and went out. He offered his hand to her and gently assisted her out. “I had breakfast ordered. It’s best you eat first.”Elli remained on her spot when SJ immediately walked off towards the villa.“This way please, Madam,” Stuart Hansen, the bodyguard, who has been tailing her, said formally.She followed him quietly, going down the wide steps carefully. She stopped at one
SJ watched from the back in his car as his wife dropped on the ground when her legs finally gave way. She supported herself with her palms on the pavement and finally saw her let out a cry of anguish just as the rain poured down. Her cries reached his ears.“Shall we get her, Sir?” Stuart asked with concern, who is on the front seat. “The rain might get stronger. Madam might catch a cold.”“Give her a few minutes more,” SJ answered calmly.He expected her reaction to his discovery. He was prepared for it and had even readied himself in the event she will react violently. What he wasn’t prepared of, was the anguished pain he felt in his heart when she reacted on what he said. He saw the way her eyes clouded with questions and uncertainties. She was shaking her head at the thought that the man she knows as her father could not be the real one.“Call Newman back at the villa and have all available towels at the
Perhaps it was the alcohol talking or the mood that the heavy downpour is giving them. Dark skies and rain falling continuously on the roof, the sound in rhythm with the beating of his heart.All SJ know is that he has been desiring for his wife for quite some time ever since he stayed that night in her apartment after she had fainted.Elli had slowly and unintentionally made her own way into his being especially when she started defying and showing her rebellious nature. He had never liked his woman to be timid. Her refusal in bending to his will most of the time is probably one of the main reasons for his fatal attraction to her. He tried getting rid of that by spending more time with Carmela. His mistress as what she had boldly told him. But the more he spends time with his lover, the more he is longing to for his young wife.SJ looked down at his wife and with an inward groan, he placed a hand under her chin and tilted her face up. He lowered his lips to her
Elli opened her eyes at the rumble of the thunder as well as something heavy on her waist. She looked down and saw her husband’s arm draped over her. She followed the hand with her eyes and found him sleeping deeply behind her.She turned her eyes away from him and thought back of the events that happened between them. She blushed furiously as she remembered that she was the one who had asked him to make love to her. She didn’t know what came over her. She made the alcohol responsible that she had taken because she needed it to make her body warm. But it was still lacking since she was still shivering. She vowed that she would learn to drink so that she wouldn’t feel the need for his body warmth as what he had suggested. That had led to other things, and it made her want to die of embarrassment.How can I look him straight in the eye again?! She thought frantically.Or it might be probably the rain, which is still ongoing. She had always loved
SJ watched as Elli strolled ahead of them the following day. The rain had finally subsided late in the evening, and he was more than happy that William and his companions arrived early, and the chef had made them a sumptuous breakfast.He watched Elli enjoyed the food served to them. But, most of all, he was feeling secretly pleased with himself for making her hungry. He completely tired her out from last night.SJ then suspected that somehow his guards had informed them that he and Elli had finally accepted their fate and coupled. He came to that conclusion when he and Elli finally came out for breakfast and saw their smiling faces that each one of them cannot hide while his wife blushed out of embarrassment. He added more color to her face when he leaned down and gave her a quick kiss in front of them. The pleasing looks of the staff could not be hidden.They are now looking with high hopes and expectations for the next Kincaid heir.So much for paying
Elli stood rigidly when SJ placed her down inside the cave-like area that she had pointed to him. She stared at him, trying to calm her nerves, figuring out what his mind is thinking. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing and understanding from her husband.“I don’t know about this, SJ,” she started calmly but her pitch gave way on her nervousness. “D-Do they know the reason why you sent them away? When we return at the villa later, will they know that we.. that we…”“Had sex?” SJ finished with an amused smile. He went to her and took her in his arms. “Yes, they will know. It’s normal for them to know. We’re husband and wife. That alone is reason enough.”She looked up at him.“What are we going to do?” She asked.“I know what I’m going to do,” he answered as his one hand traveled underneath her shirt while his other hand went to the hem
“Thanks for doing this, Nigel,” SJ said seriously on Thursday morning in his office as he accepted the folder that his personal lawyer handed to him. He opened it and read through the documents for a while and nodded when he seemed satisfied. “I’ll give you a call once the penthouse will be ready for buyers to check.”Nigel Shaw nodded at him.“I’m sure there wouldn’t be a problem in finding the right buyer,” he assured with a smile. “My wife, Sally is already making proposals for the ads once it’s up.”SJ acknowledged it and he stood up, buttoning his coat before shaking his hand. “I owe you big time, man,” he said as he walked around his desk to escort him to the door. “Once everything is okay, let’s go out for dinner. I’ll bring Elli so she can meet Sal.”“Sal would love that,” Nigel agreed. “Do you know that she’s been as
