Tempting the Billionaire and His Heir

CHAPTER 67

I woke up to an empty bed, the sheets rumpled from the previous night’s passion. Anthony must have left early to avoid the maids finding out we had spent the night together. I stretched my limbs and smiled at the thought, reliving the heat of our lovemaking in my mind. I couldn’t believe I just had sex with my boss

The warm sun was shining through the window, and I could hear the birds chirping outside. I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a quick shower. The hot water cascaded down my body, washing away the last remnants of sleep. I felt refreshed and energized as I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

I was conflicted on what to wear. If I dressed up Nolan would only make fun of me and say I was trying to seduce him. But I wanted my boss Anthony to see me looking prim before he left for work. I hurriedly put on some shorts and tank top, I wasn’t going to allow Nolan to get to me, not today.

After applying some blush and lip gloss, I headed out to find Nolan. I knocked on his door.

“Nolan” I called. There was no answer. I pushed the door thinking it was locked but to my surprise it wasn’t locked.

But he was nowhere to be found. He was probably in the garden I thought. I walked to the garden hoping he would be in a good mood so I didn’t have to deal with his snarky comments this morning.

He was not  in the garden either. I started to panic. Where could he possibly be this early I thought to myself.

I searched the house, but he was not  in any of the rooms or in any of the common areas. I wondered where he could have gone. I asked all the workers, but no one had seen him.

I walked down the hallway towards Anthony’s room and knocked slightly on the door. “Come in,” he said, and I opened the door to enter his room. I was feeling a bit shy and unsure of where to look. Anthony was already dressed for work. He was sitting on his bed, scrolling through his phone, and as he heard me enter, he turned his gaze towards me lazily.

The memory of what happened between us yesterday flashed before my eyes and I knew I was blushing. I felt hot all of a sudden.

“Hello, sir,” I said softly, trying to sound respectful.

“Hey,” he replied, walking up to me. He kissed me and I could swear I heard myself moan. I stepped back regretting it instantly but I needed to inform him.

“Nolan is missing,” I said, and Anthony’s expression changed from lazy to worried in a split second.

“What? Where did he go?” he thundered, and he walked out of the room, leaving me behind.

I followed him as he rushed down the hallway towards Nolan’s room. He tried calling his phone repeatedly, but he didn’t pick up. I was worried, but he said, “Alexa, he probably went to one of his friend’s places.” Anthony went upstairs to pick up something and headed to work.

As I walked back to my room, my mind was racing with thoughts. Was it possible that Nolan saw me with Anthony yesterday? The memory made me shudder. There was no way he saw us. I convinced myself.

I had always thought I was content with my boyfriend, Cody. He was the one who sent me into this house on a mission, after all. But being here made me question everything. The connection I felt with Anthony was undeniable, and Nolan too made my heart beat despite him infuriating me at every opportunity he got.

I could not help but wonder what it would be like to be with him. Was he a gentle lover or was he rough?.

“Alexa get it together” I said to myself. How can I have sexual feelings for both Anthony and Nolan?

The truth was, I was torn. Part of me wanted to stay loyal to Cody and forget about the temptations around me. But the other part yearned for something more, something that Cody couldn’t provide. I hated feeling so conflicted.

I was so tired of Cody and his crimes. Was I going to spend my whole life entertaining his lifestyle? His never-ending string of crimes, the gang. I thought it was thrilling to be a part of his world, but now it all just seemed exhausting. I was sick of being his little puppet, always going along with whatever he wanted. It was time for a change.

I knew that I didn’t want to be a part of Cody’s plan to rob Anthony’s mansion anymore . I didn’t want to be involved in any more illegal activities. It was time for me to make a clean break from Cody and his lifestyle.

I sighed sadly knowing it was wishful thinking. Cody would kill us all if he ever found out what was going on. I was stuck with him except he discarded me first.

But there was something else that was tearing me apart inside. I was torn between my love for Anthony and Nolan.

As I lay there, lost in thought, I realized that I needed to make a decision. I couldn’t continue to entertain these feelings for Anthony and Nolan while pretending everything was fine with Cody.

Feeling overwhelmed, I decided to take a walk down to the garden. As I made my way through the garden, I couldn’t help but think about Nolan and where he had disappeared to.

The garden was one of my favorite spots in the mansion. It was serene, quiet, and beautifully landscaped. As I walked through the winding paths, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. I remembered Nolan sitting peacefully at the garden playing his guitar.

Where was Nolan and why did he disappear all of a sudden I thought feeling uneasy.
