[ Charlotte ]"We'll regret this, Seb." I whispered as his hand travelled under my skirt and brushed gently on my inner thighs.Suddenly, my inside was on fire. I hadn't been touched by a man or precisely him in five years. I yearned for him.Although, I was going to regret later, I was willing to break the shields I built around me."I won't, Char because I have been craving for you since the moment we parted our ways and now, you look more irresistible." He whispered in my ear and our eyes matched. His blue orbs were dark with pure desire.I didn't know how but I found myself leaning into his touch and forgot my initial agenda to visit him.I received a notice from William that if I didn't had a civil discussion over the subject of joint custody of Ace, Sebestian would knock the doors of the court.His lips on my exposed cleavage pulled me back in the euphoria and I found myself leaning under his touch."Sofa or desk?" He asked rubbing his fingers on my panties. I bet it was soaked
[ Charlotte ] "Char, here's your coffee, the way you prefer, no sugar and milk." Sebestian forward me a brewing cup of grounded coffee with a smile. "Thanks." I took it from him and sipped the hot, bitter liquid and let it do its work on my turmoil. "Char, look I know you maybe regretting our moments but I don't." He said breaking the awkward silence between us. "I don't regret." I sipped my coffee and placed the cup on the table."It was a good sex. I badly needed to lay down as my work is effecting my personal life." I said very casually while looking directly at him. His smile dropped and a hard expression settled on his handsome face.With a swift moment, he gripped my chin in his hand. "What did you just say?" He asked me in a very deep voice. "The truth. I really enjoyed the sex. You have skills to satiate what a woman desires." I said, I knew that it was a below the belt hit but I wasn't falling for his charms again. "Don't play, Char. I know what you felt. You have never
[ Sébastien ]Today's the day when I tied the knot with Charlotte nine years ago. It was the most memorable day of my life. We exchanged the holy vows and promised to stay by each other's side.I was happy and smiling for the first time in my life because Charlotte was going to embrace my last name and become mine.Today, I find myself with nothing but weathered hope and darkness. It'd be the sixth year when I'd celebrate this day alone, sipping my neat whiskey and staring at our portrait which was when we kissed at the alter.A smile played on my lips when I recalled the moment for the zillionth time.A knock on my home office'd door interrupted my solitude.It was a maid. She looked terrified as I strictly forbade my house staff to not disturb me when I work at home or needed privacy."Are you new here?" I asked her coldly.She shook her head negatively, her whole posture was shaking."No..no..Si..Sir." She stammered,"Your parents are here and they order me to inform you that they
[ Charlotte ]"Mom, why are we here? You told me that we shouldn't contact Mr. Sébastien then why do you want us to meet him?" Ace questioned me.I inhaled the cold, dry air and looked down at my son whose comfused face told me everything."I have thought about our future, Ace and I think it would be better if you stay close to your father and try to know him. "I told him the parial truth.He blinked his big eyes and nodded. I could see the clouds of confusion and uncertainty on his face but I thought it was better to avoid this conversation as I had to put my plan in action.Today's my ninth wedding anniversary. The day I should be regretting the most. I stared at the Blackwood Manor standing majestically in front of us."Let's go inside and surprise him." I hid my smirk from Ace."Okay." He said slowly.Our guards were about to surround us but I stopped them."We're fine here. You all can take the rest for the day. I'll call you when I'd need security but please be present at the ti
[ Charlotte ]Momentary silence enveloped the air as soon as I made the declaration. All three of the Blackwoods looked like they had seen a ghost while I enjoyed their stunned faces."Charlotte, please don't make joke of such things. It's a very sensitive subject for me." Sebestian broke the silence. He pleaded me through his eyes."Does it seem like I'm joking, Seb?" I deliberately used the nick name I gave to him.His pupils dilated and in the next moment, I found myself in his arms. He hugged me tighly."Thanks, thank you so much, Char for giving me another chance. You have no idea how I'm feeling right now." He said kissing my crown. His eyes were glossy and the emotions I saw behind those pupils, it made me feel guilty.I was doing it for my revenge but it'd turn me no less than them. I tore my gaze from him and looked at his parents."You don't need to thank me, Seb. I should be apologising to you for hiding about Ace. You deserved to know that we have a child together." I said
[ Sebestian ]I couldn't believe on what my eyes were seeing. My wife and son were back in my life and I think it wasn't no less than a miracle. A week ago, she challenged me to fight in the court and today, she willingly came back home.Ace was learning how to play chess with my old butler and the keenness on his small, adorable face was priceless. He had a genius brain.Charlotte was busy in a video conferencing with her senior executives. I didn't get a chance to talk to her since my parents left and I was desperately trying to converse with her. I hoped after the dinner, we could talk."Mr. Sebestian, see I learnt this move." Ace's excitment filled voice pulled me out of my trance.I shook my head and looked at my son. His eyes were sparkling with true happiness.Charlotte was right, I could never give him the same environment and love which he received from her."That's great! I am sure one day you'll beat Robert in chess." I smiled widely and clapped to cheer him up."Yes, I wi
[ Charlotte ]"Fuck! I should have thought that my schedule is packed for today." I groaned as my hangover grew worse."Here, take this. It'll help you." Jonathan handed me advil and lemonade."Thanks, bestie. You're my life saver. What would I do without you?" I thanked him and popped the pill in my mouth and swallowed it with lemonade."Your husband will take care of you." Came his cold reply which forced me to look at him.His face was blank. He had been acting very strange for days but I never noticed until this moment."What do you mean, Jon?" I asked him directly."Don't bother yourself. After all, you proved that I am nothing in your life." He said in a very harsh tone."Jonathan, I know something is going inside your head. Please tell me what happened and from where Sebestian came in all this? You're complicating the situation for us." I said in frustration. I had already so much on my platter and Jonathan was making it even worse."You moved in with Sebestian in the same hous
[ Charlotte ] "We want 65% of the total profit share if we're going to invest major shares of our capital in the construction. It will be the biggest and most luxurious hotel in the world. We'd be an immortal name in the history." Jonathan demanded. "65% of profit share for a land which we are providing worth billions? That's unacceptable!" Sebestian immediately filed his disagreement. "We understand your concern, Mr. Blackwood but we're investing the best engineering and designs that the best architects of the world will be drafting for us. We're sorry, we can't accept nothing less." Jonathan responded, both males were ready to kill each other but composed themselves. "Then we can't proceed further. There's no meaning of extending this meeting. We want to take our leave now. Thanks for considering a possible alliance." Sebestian said through gritted teeth to maintain professionalism. Victorine who was silent till this moment and extravagantly explained their plans just to have an
