The Stranger He Became Chapter 28
The harder he tried, he couldn't shake the thought off his head. It felt like he'd lose his mind if he hesitated a second longer. He pushed his entire body out of the pool, leaving the unfinished punch by the poolside, and wrapped himself in a towel from the nearby rack.He reached for his phone as he dried his face and hair with the towel. He knew he had to find Chloe again but didn't know where to start. He scrolled through his contacts and stopped at Olivia's name. She might know where Chloe was, he thought. He hesitated momentarily before finally pressing the call button as he strode through the shaded yard toward his old-fashioned chateau.The sound of Ollie's voice echoed from the phone's speaker, but it lacked the usual excitement Max remembered from their previous conversation."I promise not to bother you after this." His voice reverberated with a solemn promise as he strolled by the gallery adorned with a lineage of portraits."I told her—I'm sorry, I couldn't keep it from h

Max felt a pang of regret as Chloe pulled away from him, wiping the tears from her face. He couldn't tell if she felt comforted or didn't want him there. He wondered if she regretted showing her vulnerability to a man who was supposedly using her for his own gain.She brushed the line of tears from her face and moved away from him. She had been vulnerable, and even now, Chloe didn't know if it wasn't a mistake to show her vulnerability to a man who was after her for his vengeful plot."What are you doing here?" she asked, her voice laced with anger and sadness. "I thought I said..."Nevertheless, Max ignored her question as he took a seat beside her, maintaining a respectful distance but trying to offer comfort in some way."How are you?" he asked softly. "I saw the news."Chloe scoffed. "Everyone saw the news. Isn't it amazing that my life is a mess?""Your life is not a mess," Max countered, reaching out to gently touch her arm.Chloe pulled away, shooting him a glare. "What do you

The blue Cadillac glided down the winding road, Chloe's fingers firmly gripping the steering wheel. She kept her gaze fixed ahead, unresponsive to the chirping crickets in the trees that flanked the road. The moon hung large in the sky, casting a silver glow over the dark, looming clouds that filled the atmosphere.Her mind was too preoccupied to fully appreciate the beauty of the night. The soft breeze that was whispering past her car's windows went unnoticed as she gripped the steering wheel tightly. Chloe's thoughts were consumed by what she was about to do and the consequences that would follow. The moon and the stars were just distant decorations in her periphery, and the chirping of the crickets was lost in the background noise of her racing mind.The sting of the news was still fresh in her heart, and it felt like an endless well of sorrow had been dug in her heart, and it promised to overflow.Max's presence had been helpful while she could get over the thought. But the minute

A pair of Stuart Weitzman Diamond Stilettos clanked along the marble floor of the Kincaid Group of Companies. Linda moved with ease. Even if she was incensed, she didn't show it. It was hard to tell why she had walked into the company after two months of not setting foot there.She walked on, barely responding to the "good mornings" from the workers.Linda was a fashion goddess, and everyone knew that. From the delicate embroidery that knitted a seamless purple gown, which did nothing but show off the glow from her fresh skin—one of the latest trends off the runway—to the Hermes bag strapped to her hand, which was new-season. Her silver-dyed hair complimented her looks as it fell in neat curls over her shoulder.She took to the corner that led to the CEO's office and caught Shelly bent over Kylian's secretary's desk in an early morning gossip.Brad straightened when he saw her. "Good morning, Mrs. Kincaid."Shelly pulled away from the desk and recoiled in a corner, embarrassed.Linda

Chloe could feel the warmth pumping through her as she held onto Max's broad arm for support and felt her breath leaving her. She gasped for breath, feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of Max's desire. She kissed him passionately, damning every consequence, throwing caution to the wind, and ignoring the discouraging thoughts in her head. Her heart and body were urging her to give in to her desires, and she couldn't resist the intensity of the moment. 'Fuck the consequences!' she said to herself as she decided to relish in this moment of pleasure she'd not experienced in a long time. Max's lips devoured hers in a feverish hunger, his tongue seeking entrance to taste her sweet essence. Chloe couldn't resist the pull of his lips and eagerly opened her mouth to allow his tongue to explore every corner. His hands roamed over the silky skin of her thighs, leaving a trail of heat wherever they touched, sending shivers down her spine. She moaned into his mouth, feeling a familiar warmth

The room's quietness was filled with the swishing sounds of their sexes pleasuring each other. Chloe's moans of ecstasy filled the air, her voice bearing pure, unadulterated bliss as more moisture seeped down her core."God, you feel so amazing; I could die in here, Chloe." A feeling of euphoria enveloped him as he increased his thrusts, his huge erection throbbing harshly in and out of her depths. Both his arms were gently placed on her delicate ones a little above her head, his tongue nibbling teasingly on her earlobe."Max..." She moaned his name, her voice tender and sweet to his ears."I like it when you say my name like that," His right hand clutched the back of her hair while his left hand slid down to her lower abdomen. Gently, his fingers trailed down to pleasure her clit, applying gentle strokes in a circular motion while his shaft maintained a steady rhythm. Her folds clenched. The intensity of his touch sent an uncontrollable sensation through her.Chloe felt a wave of el

Ollie wore a worried look as she stood in front of Chloe's apartment. Her eyes conveyed enough, and she didn't open her mouth to speak."I have been fine," Chloe said, moving away from the door and letting her in. She occupied the couch she had been reading a magazine on. "I told you I'd be alright. There's nothing I can't handle."Ollie settled on one of the couches. "I should have visited; work has been keeping me busy.""And that's what I wanted you to do."Max had contained the situation of her near-suicide event, and the only news around her was her ex-husband's engagement to her cousin, her only relative.Ollie felt sorry for her boss. She knew Chloe was a strong woman who kept her emotions tidy. She would keep up with a contagious smile even if she were hurting."Tell me," Chloe said, wishing to take Ollie's gaze and pitiful thoughts off her. "How has work been? How much progress are we making towards fashion display?"Ollie was excited to tell her how well she had organized th

"What the fuck are these doing with you?"Kylian's right hand shot into the air, holding a brown envelope with a fierce grip. Emma could see his reflection in the mirror and recognize the same envelope she had seen before. The glare on his face made her heart race.She stopped applying the foundation to her face and turned to face Kylian, putting on an innocent expression as if she had no idea what the envelope contained."What are you talking about, hun?" Her voice came tenderly, and she wore a confused expression on her face.Kylian wasn't falling for her gimmicks. "Don't give me that, Emma. I found these in your car; you are the only one who drives that car."Emma bit her lips. She had been reckless to have left the photographs in the car, and with them in Kylian's hand, she had to devise a way to escape being incriminated.She moved her eyes to the envelope, trying to remain calm. "What's in there? I've never seen it before."Kylian snickered in disbelief. He unloaded the contents
