Chapter 11

TARA'S POV A small smile formed on my lips.Daniel came after all.At that moment, I was ready to forget everything that had happened because he showed up.I turned, the smile already forming.“Ba..” I paused.Wrong person.But that voice.“Your confidence is admirable, Mrs. Bryce,” the voice said calmly.My brows pulled together slightly as I looked up.“Thank you,” I said too quickly.Something about him made my heart race.I coughed, awkwardly. Why would he address me by my name first?“Enjoying the Exhibition?” I added.He stood confidently, head high, like he owned the place.His eyes drifted past the crowd for a second.“Oh! Yes, I am,” he said. “Beautiful pieces, I must say.”His gaze lingered on me for a second too long…Then shifted slowly toward the painting behind me.Chaos.“Interesting choice for a centerpiece,” he said.Not impressed.Not dismissive either. I swallowed hard.“Yes…” I found my voice. “Art isn't about perfection.” He chuckled, putting his hands in hi

TARA'S POV Daniel's voice cut through the air. Sharp and possessive.My body stiffened instantly.But Sebastian didn’t move. Not even a flinch.His hand were still on me.My heart pounded I pulled away from his grip. Gulped hard and smoothed my dress.Daniel was approaching us with deliberate strides and soon the attention of the guests at the exhibition was on us.Cameras began to flash, hushed voices echoed from every angle. I glanced at Sebastian who stood composed with his hands in his pocket.Like the scene was nothing. And then at Daniel who was ready to have an outburst. He approached Mr. Hale, breathing heavily. “Babe… Babe,” I hurriedly moved towards him before he could get to where Sebastian stood.He simply shoved me aside and continued heading in Sebastian’s direction.I looked around and everyone was still, waiting for Daniel to explode.Daniel stopped right in front of him.Too close. The room went still. Even the cameras stopped.Sebastian didn’t move.Didn’t ste

TARA'S POVI didn’t move.My hand remained on the guest room handle.For a second, I wondered if pretending I hadn’t heard him would somehow save me from this conversation.But it wouldn’t.I inhaled slowly.“Who’s the one?” I asked quietly, finally turning.Daniel stood at the end of the hallway. Buttons undone, tie loosened and sleeves rolled.His expression was unreadable.“Don’t play dumb with me, Tara.” His voice stayed calm.“Sebastian Hale.”My stomach tightened.He took a slow step forward.“You looked awfully comfortable in his arms.”I swallowed hard.“Daniel,” I said calmly, “I'm expecting Stella and she'll be here in a few minutes. I need to get ready.”“I don't have time for whatever it is you're trying to start.”I turned back to the door. It was best I avoided this conversation, I sucked at lying, especially to Daniel.“Don’t take another step,” he said, firmer this time.I rolled my eyes and turned back slowly.“What exactly is your problem?” I asked.His eyes twitched

Chapter 14

TARA'S POV By the time I got to the museum, my stomach was already in knots.Or rather…By the time I got there, I was already regretting every decision I had made in the last seventy-two hours.Sebastian Hale.The rogue.The billionaire.The man whose hands I apparently couldn’t stop thinking about.My hands were sweaty but I didn't care. I tightened my grip around my purse.Professional.This was professional.Nothing more.The black Rolls-Royce waiting outside the museum snapped me out of my thoughts.A man in a suit stepped out immediately like he had been waiting for my car to pull over.“Mrs. Bryce?”I swallowed.“Yes.”“Mr. Hale sent me.”Of course he did.I looked at my phone screen. 10 : 45 am and cleared my throat.“You were supposed to pick me up by 11. It's not time yet.” “You need to be seated by 11. No one keeps the boss waiting.” He said more like a robot than a human.I took a deep breath and nodded. So much for putting myself together before the driver arrives.The
