Billionaire ’s Unforgettable First Love novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 You're A Better Liar Than I Am

In the end, she got snared in a web of intrigue.

Her face was on the quilt made of ice silk, her eyes staring blankly at the silhouette through the bathroom door.

Soon, the water stopped running.

That outline approached the door, and when he opened it, she could clearly see him.

It was Eddison Yates in the flesh.

It turned out her memory didn't go wrong.

He'd taken her back, indeed.

He was topless, his square shoulders and narrow waist in an inverted triangle with well-built muscles, his tempting figure in the Golden Ratio. He wrapped a bath towel around his waist, his hair still dripping wet with water beads dropping about his shoulder neck and going down, leaving shallow marks on his sculptured chest.

Seeing her awake and soberer, he approached and reached a hand to caress her forehead and neck.

She was not as much hot as she was last night.

"Untie me."

She could barely push those words out of her throat.

"How do you feel right now?"

He asked as untied her.

"Why did you tie me up?"

"You scratched me."

He untied her and tossed the tie away.

She immediately pulled up the blanket to cover her body so she could prop herself up.

Eddison turned around and went to his locker room.

She saw several scratches on his back, the proof that she'd scratched him.

Being tied up for hours left reining traces on her wrists, and her sore arms were too strengthless for her to raise.

"Eddison Yates, you broke your promise."

She had listed her requests before she signed the agreement.

But he didn't follow.

A smirk went up on his lips as he heard her, yet he didn't look back but trotted into the locker room to change.

Gwenyth was wrapping herself in the blanket and sitting on the bed, staring at him with her bloodshot eyes like she was going to stab him a million times.

He would have been dead a million times if she could kill with stares.

"Me? Broke promise?"

He went to her and sit down opposite, regaining his peaceful look after the smirk on his face was gone.

"You did break your promise."

"I didn't do anything the agreement forbids me to do. Does it forbid sleeping with you?"

Gwenyth was dumbfounded.

She was gullible enough to swallow his oral promise.

"You should trust the promises that are written on paper. Consider last night a lesson I taught you."

As he finished the weasel words, Gwenyth raised an arm and tried to hit him.

He easily grabbed her slim wrist and added, "We're adults. Don't be such a prude since you were not keeping your virginity for anyone."

"Isn't it enough for you to torture my body? You have to humiliate me on top of that?"

What he was doing was no less than stabbing her in the heart.

"Did I say anything wrong?"

"Eddison Yates, you cross the line."

"It's not easy to make three million dollars. You've seen it coming before you signed the agreement, haven't you?"

"But you promised me..."

"Oral promises don't matter! Plus, you're a better liar than I am."

While he was saying that, he had a grim frown on his face, his eyes darkening. He no longer looked like a playboy but a cruel beast at the moment.

Gwenyth didn't understand, so asked, "What does that supposed to mean?"

"You know exactly what it means."

He had more words than he expressed, but Gwenyth couldn't get them.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."
