Feeling embarrassed, Olivia tried to kick him once again.
Dylan tightened his hold the moment she shifted⦠Leaning against his shoulder, Olivia bit him in frustration, struggling to contain herself.
Dylanâs eyes grew dark.
He murmured in her ear, âJust admit it, if you enjoy it!â
Amidst her gasps, Olivia cursed, âYou jerk!â
Dylan, hearing her curse, pressed her into the corner of the elevator, mindful of the surveillance camera, and lightly traced her lips with his slender fingerâ¦
Olivia couldnât shake him off.
Her eyes burning with rage, she cursed once more, âDamn you, Dylan!â
But Dylan remained silent.
As the elevator reached the top floor, Dylan held Oliviaâs gaze for a moment before leading her out into the apartment.
The place had been renovated.
At Dylanâs request, the designer adorned the place with feminine touches, including a childrenâs room designed for Leyla.
âWhat do you think?â
In the well-lit bedroom, Dylan enveloped Olivia from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder.
He murmured assurances of his presence, promising to stay by her side.
He added that he would never see Gina again if Olivia wished.
But Olivia understood that if Gina were in dire straits, Dylan would unquestionably rush to her side.
Suddenly, an overwhelming sadness engulfed her.
Competing with a dying woman for Dylanâs affection was not what she desired; she found the situation utterly absurd.
Turning to face him, Olivia spoke calmly.
âI wonât be moving in here, neither will Leyla.
â
Her gaze lowered, she added, âDo you remember that, Dylan? You promised youâd come to me whenever I missed you, no matter where you were.
Somethingâs different now.
â
Remembering the past, Olivia couldnât shake off a sense of sadness.
Despite everything, Dylan had been a significant presence in her life for so many years, the best years of her life.
Whether he remained by her side or not, he would always hold a special place in her heart.
âBut I never had feelings for Gina!â Dylan argued.
Then he said nothing more.
Leading Olivia to the king-sized bed, Dylanâs intentions were different tonight.
While they had been intimate in the past, they had never gone all the way.
Tonight, he desired to make love to his beloved woman.
Only then would Olivia be entirely his.
