Chapter 65 So, this is your plan?
VICTORIA’S POV
I paused, uncertain of how to respond to the situation. I wasn’t expecting anyone here and not him,
especially.
I remained silent and stood like stiff steel, unable to express my feelings.
His hands tightened around my waist, careful not to hurt me in the process, as he lowered his head
behind me and kept his chin on my shoulder.
His smooth, deep voice whispered into my right ear, “Finally, I get you in my arms.” His fresh masculine
cologne hit my nostrils, and I shivered a little when his breath fell on my exposed neck.
My toes curled, and my thighs clenched along with my chest. I don’t know if I should be happy or angry
with this man.
My emotions surged up to me urgently as my throat dried, and it felt heavy inside. I swallowed the lump
in my throat before speaking, “I thought you had left?” I forced the words out, but they sounded like a
complaint to my ears. Fuck!
He chuckled lightly, nuzzling my neck, making me shiver more. I bit down my lips to prevent myself
from getting too emotional.
“How could I? When my wife and baby are both here? I will never leave without you and the baby,
Victoria.” His words echoed in my ear. Deep but light-toned, yet full of promises.
“Alessandro...” I mentioned his name and swallowed the painful lump again before saying, “Stop being
stubborn. We’re already divorced. You should move on and begin a new life.”
My tone was shaky, yet I didn’t stop saying my words this time.
I felt his weight lift from my neck. Is he going already? Then why came back?
I felt my heart shatter again as I closed my eyes to control myself. However, it didn’t stay long, as I was
forced to turn around when he circled me.
I opened my eyes only to behold the most handsome face on earth. His ocean-blue eyes are as deep
as the sea, sweeping over me. His dimples are visible with his bright smile that turns heads just for a
glance. This man is simply perfect!
Wait... Ain’t I angry with him? I decided to leave him, right? Then why on earth am I thinking all those
things? Shit!
My pregnancy hormones are playing with me too much!
I gasped suddenly as my lower back pushed against the yacht’s railing. I looked up at him, feeling a
mix of confusion and surprise.
“What are you...”
“Shh.” He kept his index finger on my lips, stopping me from talking further.
Alessandro leaned forward and replaced his finger with his soft and sexy lips, kissing me lightly.
A part of me wanted to push him away, and the other part wanted to hold him tight and lean into the
emotion. However, I didn’t do anything; I just stood there, clutching the hem of my dress like steel, and
let him kiss me.
My baby bump acted as a barrier between us, causing him to stand a little further away. Nonetheless, I
guess Alessandro is adamant about keeping his promise.
He stepped aside and held me tight, deepening the kiss. My hands pressed onto his chest this time. A
part of me urging me to push him away and the other side pestering me to pull him closer, and finally, I
chose to accept the desire growing in me.
My hands fisted in his collars and pulled him closer as I responded to the kiss.
His hands tightened firmly around me, and the kiss between us lasted long until I was out of breath.
Eventually, he released me. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
His shining blue eyes fell on me. “Did I succeed in bringing you here?” He asked expectantly.
Does he think I accepted him just because I leaned on the kiss? Hell, no! I let go of his collar and
folded my arms over my chest before looking around.
“So, this is your plan?” I arched my brow, and he smiled with a firm nod. He did not deny it at all.
Now I understand why my name was announced even though I didn’t write anything and why the host
seemed uncomfortable when Sage joined me.
He tricked me, huh?
Should I be happy or get angry over him playing with me?
“A kiss doesn’t mean anything, Alessandro. My decision will never change.” I said firmly.
Yes, I may love him, and still, my love is intact. As time passes, my emotions surface, but I am aware of
the consequences of reciprocating one-sided feelings.
First, he never knew about my identity, and Victoria Blake was too low for him to accept. Now, with my
real identity, he thinks he can get me for a useful reason.
Nah-ah. I guess he needs to wake up from his daydreaming.
“Then why did you let me kiss you?” He asked, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
“I have my needs,” I replied, shrugging, even though I know that this is not only my needs but my
feelings are heavily involved.
“You should go back, Alessandro.” I was about to turn around when he grabbed my hand and stopped
me.
“Please, Victoria. Give me one chance, please. I will make everything right, I promise,” he pleaded.
I snatched my hand from him. “Promise? Seriously, Alessandro? Do you think I am a fool to accept you
when you only want me for my identity?” I shook my head. “That’s never gonna happen. You should let
go of the thought of me,” I said firmly and coldly.
No matter what, I won’t return to something based only on business and the outer world without any
emotional touch.s
