The Billionaire's Devotion

(Excerpt—) Their faces were still inches apart, breaths entangling. Instead of her lips, he kissed her on the cheek before pulling away to look at her. She wasn't looking at him anymore. She had trained her eyes on the view outside the window. "We could try again," Jacob said. "I don't know what you want from me." Sutton replied in a quiet voice. "I'll keep my word this time around. Six months and I'll set you free, Sutton Price."  Sutton wasn't listening anymore. Something else was on her mind. She brought her eyes to him again, and her next words were not what he expected.

Chapter 55

                              Sutton Price

Sutton drove to her apartment after Jacob left the house. She was in no mood to face her parents, especially her father, after the little insensitive things he had said yesterday. She went to her apartment, but on getting there she realized that a lot of her work were missing from her slides. She had been so busy the past few days she didn't get down to arranging her lesson notes. The sheets of paper where she drafted them were definitely in her room in her parents' house. So, Sutton got into her car again and drove towards the one place she didn't want to be at the moment.
