Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

Skyler smiled brightly and said, “Anyway, I’d like to go upstairs to write my thesis. Call me when dinner is ready, please!”

“Go ahead. Don’t let the baby negatively affect your studies! Go write that thesis,” Scarlett said.

Eve sat down and made a funny face at Carlos, “Hey, my sweetheart, do you still remember me?”

Carlos lazily looked at her and then closed his eyes; he was totally ignoring Eve.

When she saw that, Scarlett laughed loudly and teased her, “It looks like he just ignored you!”

“Hmm, you bad boy! You are just like your mother! Always teasing and taunting people, isn’t it?” Eve said as she gently pinched his chubby face.

Scarlett smilingly gave a kiss on his forehead and said, “Hey, sweetheart, Eve’s not so bad. Aunty Eve isn’t the bad guy… she’s your godmother! Make sure to trouble her as much as possible when you grow up a little.”

Eve held her arms across the chest and said, “Hey, stop that! You are gonna ruin him!”

“I’m not promising to let you be my son’s godmother, okay? If you really want a child, you can have one with Damon!”

Upon hearing that, Eve’s face became red with anger, and she really wanted to suffocate Scarlett with the pillow.

“By the way, why did he come to see you again?” Scarlett suddenly remembered.

“Actually, I saw his car downstairs at my place, so I didn’t go upstairs. I don’t really know why he was there.” Eve said.

“Is he trying to reconcile with you or something? Why won’t he just leave you alone?” Scarlett said, stunned.

“What? Are you kidding me? I guess he just wants to have sex with me!” She sneered.

Scarlett mused, “Wow, you two have sex with each other even after the divorce? That sounds super ill-advised….”

Eve coughed and said, “I don’t know what to tell you, Scarlett… I trained that man well in the short period that we were married… He knows just what I like.”

“You are crazy!” Scarlett said.

“I mean, maybe. But that’s part of why I stopped meeting him. It was just fucked up. I couldn’t have any new, normal relationships because of my weird in-between thing with Damon. So, yeah.”

“If you are not remarried, you are still single, and you have the right to sleep with anyone…” Scarlett said sincerely, “But once you are remarried…”

“Then what?” Eve said.

“I don’t know, men can be vengeful. He might hate the fact that you’ve been freely sleeping with whomever you want. Do you know how terrible Damon could be if he wants to settle old scores? Do you even remember how many men you have slept with since you got divorced? I mean, who’s keeping count anyway?” Scarlett said, sighing. Men could be so petty, she thought to herself.

Eve didn’t know how to answer that question because she really couldn’t remember. She hadn’t, after all, been keeping score. At the thought of what Damon might do to get even, Eve felt a chill run down her spine. She couldn’t remember ever having won a fight against him in their brief marriage.

At night, Scarlett and Eve decided to share the guest room. They chatted late into the night, falling asleep only around 2 in the morning. As a result, Francis was all alone in the master bedroom. He brought Carlos over to sleep along with him, taking the situation as a chance to strengthen the relationship between them.

At ten o’clock the following day, Eve woke up and felt out of breath. She felt there was something heavy resting right on her chest. She raised her head to see that Scarlett was sleeping across the diagonal length of the bed, and her leg was on Eve’s chest. That was the cause of the restless sleep Eve had gotten last night.

Eve turned over and took Scarlett’s leg off her. Angrily, Eve gave Scarlett several kicks.

Scarlett rolled over in a daze and murmured, “Leave me alone, Francis!”

“Who? It’s me, Eve! Not your husband? Stop that!” Eve said as she got up from the bed.

Scarlett was too sleepy, so she just rolled over and went on sleeping.

After she was done cleaning up, Eve came out of the bathroom. She noticed that Scarlett was sleeping with her body all contorted. She had the quilt between her legs and the pillow under her arms; her hair was spread out, almost covering her whole face. Because of that, she looked like a ghost.

“Hey, get up! Aren’t you hungry?” Eve woke Scarlett up by gently patting her on her face.

However, Scarlett just grunted and went on sleeping. Because there was no sign that Scarlett was about to get up, Eve just put on clothes and walked downstairs to look for something to eat.

Right then, Eve came across Carlos crawling about in the corridor. He was very serious, holding Skyler’s hand and walking very slowly as if he was doing something big.

“Wow, my sweetheart, you are up early!” Eve greeted him with a smile.

Carlos looked up at her and nodded slightly, and then kept walking forward.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Wow, amazing!” Eve looked at him and said.

Skyler bent down, holding Carlos’s hand, and smiled, “Yesterday, we met some kids outside, and they all are a little older than Carlos, but they can walk. So I guess Carlos must envy them, and that’s why he wants to try to walk himself.”

“My good boy!” Eve said as she stroked his head as if she were talking to a puppy.

Skyler smiled and kept on helping Carlos walk about.

Because she hadn’t put any leave-in conditioner in her hair the night before, Eve’s hair was a frizzy mess that morning. Eve scratched her head and walked downstairs.

When she turned the corner staircase, she heard a familiar voice. When she looked up, she saw a pair of dark eyes looking right at her. It was Damon Kent.

Because of how shocked she was to see Damon, Eve slipped and fell down five steps. Fortunately, she wasn’t really hurt; one of the domestic help came and supported her so she could stand up straight. But the noise she made had managed to attract the attention of the two men who chatted while sitting on the sofa.
