"Bill, give that back to me," Arabella tried to snatch the dress back but she failed, and instead she was shoved into his hard chest.
His explicit scent quickly entered her nostrils and it gave her Bill's sexiness.
Then she started to feel tingling sensations inside her body.
She was electrified with the madness they were giving her.
Arabella got panicked as she quickly pulled herself away from him.
She knew it was wrong for her to feel something like this.
So wrong because this man in front of her was going to get married tomorrow.
She had to control herself and whatever she felt for this man should be eliminated otherwise, she would not forgive herself.
She should free Bill completely but it was obvious that Bill was playing and teasing her.
She just didn't know why and what was Bill's purpose for this.
He was just wasting his time for her and even lied to Trishia again.
How dare he uttered the word trust earlier when he was with a wet girl wrapped with only a bathrobe in her body?
Is this how he treated her wife to be?
Did he not change from being a womanizer?
Arabella couldn't help but pity Trishia Meyer.
Just the thought of that, she felt lucky that she was not going to marry him.
Bill couldn't be trusted and he couldn't be faithful to his lover.
Even though his handsomeness and sexiness were so irresistible, Arabella just felt disgusted thinking of his actions.
For Arabella, this is not how a man who will get married tomorrow should behave.
When she thought, she had completely pulled away from him, Bill grabbed her arm and pulled her back onto his chest.
Arabella's heart skipped a beat. "Do not fight it, stay..." Bill was holding her head to make it stay on his chest.
She could hear Bill's heart pounding fast along with hers.
Even their hearts were synchronized but at this moment she didn't like it.
Arabella felt Bill was up to something and she could not cater to it.
She swore, she never like unfaithful men.
She tried to pull back irritatingly. "What are you doing, Bill?" She asked meeting his sharp eyes.
Her eyes were killers like she was despising him.
He should understand her message quickly but it was not the same for Bill.
He seemed to have a big problem with her.
It wasn't just his problem but hers also.
"Don't you really have any remorse for abandoning me?" Bill suddenly asked with eyes displeased.
His grip was tight on her arms.
Arabella looked at him like she didn't expect his question.
So, what about if she regretted it?
Would their situation change?
Will he cancel his wedding tomorrow?
She didn't think so.
"Why are we talking about this right now?" She asked as she frowned deeply. She was completely troubled by his question and action.
"Why not?" Bill asked as his sharp eyes pierced into her. "And why are you acting like that? Are you scared of me?” Bill added with a deep frown.
Admittedly, Arabella just stomped his ego.
He could not accept her words and actions like she already forgetting him just like that when his women were always asking for him more.
They were not satisfied with just a night and they always wanted more nights to be spent with him but it wasn't his thing.
He was a man who give only one night and no repetition.
Of course, this only happened to the most few who could pass his high taste standard.
With this thought, he couldn't help to study her and the situation.
His sharp eyes were digging deeper into hers like he wanted to see the truth beyond all her lies.
“Bill, you dumped me… remember?” Arabella refuted. “And didn’t you say that we are over?” She added. “So, don’t touch me anymore!” Arabella couldn’t help but shout at him.
She was so full of his arrogance.
She was very agitated about why he was messing with her right now.
All she wanted to do was to leave his penthouse and see Adam right away.
While she was joining the dinner, her mind was on Adam already.
She wanted to hug him and kiss him.
If Bill would allow her, she would stay hugging her son overnight.
They would talk until he fell asleep.
How she missed Adam so much.
If Bill only knew it, maybe they were not going to waste each other time talking nonsense.
With her thought about Adam, Arabella struggled to escape from his grip but Bill seemed to have no plan to release her.
She could tell he had a problem with her too but she could not decipher that exact thing.
“Arabella… you are the one who is messing me!” Suddenly, Bill’s angry voice echoed throughout the room.
Now, they were fighting.
Their eyes were already like killing each other.
“What???” She asked puzzled and in disbelief.
How could she mess with him when all she did was drink outside the convenience store?
She was drunk, yes, but it was not his business.
She could do whatever she wanted in her life without his permission.
“You… you are the problem! Because you kept on appearing in my sight. You kept on appearing in front of me. Tell me, are you doing this on purpose?” Bill was in doubt of her as he didn’t believe in coincidence.
It’s a big world out there so why they kept on meeting each other?
Why she kept on appearing in front of him?
He wanted to erase Arabella from his mind after he dumped her but then, he found it very hard.
Far more harder from closing a million dollars business deal.
As usual, he was back to his normal working routine.
Meet all VIP clients and partners with left and right conferences but Arabella's face still appeared in his mind.
Her beautiful face, her luscious lips, her sexy curves, and her delicious body, made him go crazy.
The way she stare at him, the way she smile, and the way she touched her, there was no other woman who could make him so addicted. Adding, her natural sweet body fragrance made him want to smell her all night and day.
Bill was pissed off at everything. When he didn't meet her, he was fine.
His life was plain but his mind is calm.
Meeting her at the engagement party, his mind started to mess up.
He lost his calmness and he could not think of anything but her.
These were the things he was fighting against every night and day but it was so hard seeing her everywhere.
“Why?” She asked like she felt overwhelming trouble for herself.
“Then you can go now and forget seeing Adam again.” Bill simply replied.
He was seriously using his son again.
Arabella felt he was joking but her blood was already boiling in anger at him.
“What?! You are really insane!” She screamed at him again.
She could not accept that Bill would just take away his promise to her because she offended him.
Even though she was shouting in anger, Bill was unmoved like he was not affected by her anger.
He was just looking at her with an elegant demeanor and she was very pissed.
“You see… no one dare to offend me. It’s only you, Arabella Jones!” Bill heaved a sigh as his arms were up his chest.
“What do you want now? What do you want, Bill Sky?” She asked pissed.
Her excitement to see her son had vanished completely in the air.
He was just giving her false hope and it made her very angry at him.
Her heart was already cursing him repeatedly.
“You see… I’m a businessman and I am not a charity.” Bill answered her calmly.
His voice was pointing at something and she could sense Bill was going to punish her for offending him.
She instantly felt nervous but her anger towards him was surging up.
She felt tricked by him using her son.
She would never forgive him if he would not let her see her son.
“Cut the bullsh*t, Bill! What do you want?” Couldn’t hold her anger, Arabella stood screaming at him.
She felt her nerves trembling in anger and any time soon, she could hit him.
She had to so she could release her anger.
Arabella clenched her fists hard like she was ready to be violent and fight.
After hearing her screaming, Bill stood up calmly.
His domineering figure was overly intimidating but Arabella gathered all her composure.
She looked him in the eye like they were having a staring game.
Bill strode forward like he had no sign of stopping.
Arabella was quickly alerted.
She had to take a few steps back until her back reached the closet’s surface.
Bill pressed her body against the hard surface.
She looked down not wanting to meet his provocative stare but Bill’s index finger brought her chin upward to face him.
His stare was strict and impatient.
“One night…” Bill uttered in a firm voice.
His eyes were like sharp blades digging into hers.
She felt an overwhelming tension in the air.
Her heartbeat raced so fast.
Arabella gritted her teeth to stabilize herself though her mind was telling her to run already.
“One night, Arabella,” He crouched looking into her eyes deeply. “Just one more night, give yourself to me again. Let me f*ck you… then we are even... you are free.” He completed his demand in a firm serious voice.
Along with his demand, Bill’s hand pulled the knot of her bathrobe and her robe immediately opened.
After hearing him, Arabella was stupefied.
