Unlocked the CEO's Chained Heart

Andriana "Andy" Bennett had lived her entire young life like a Princess, spoiled and loved by her parents and older brother. But tragedy struck her family, leaving her orphaned and alone. The Preston family took her in. Mr. Preston, her father's best friend, treated her like the daughter he never had, honoring his friendship with her father. However, Mrs. Preston only tolerated her presence. She had ensured that she would remember she never belonged in their family. Then, there were the handsome Preston brothers, Lucas, who treated her like she did not exist, and Tristan, who had become very close to her. Her life might not be perfect, but it was ok until she caught her boyfriend cheating on her on her 21st birthday. Wanting to get back at him, she dared to kiss her so-called brother, the older Preston brother, Lucas. What she did not expect was that he would kiss her back. Then, that was where the chaos started as she found herself on a roller coaster ride. She was engaged in a day, married in a week, and divorced two years after their contract ended. It sounded simple enough, but it was not. What would happen next?

Chapter 52

"What the heck is your problem, Andy?" She asked herself as she looked at her face in the rearview mirror while parked outside the bar where she was to meet her friends.

She could not shake the image of his disappointed face out of her mind. She did not know why she felt guilty for turning down his invitation.

It was not like she intentionally did not wish to go to dinner with him. The timing was just unideal.

"But what was wrong with him?" She believed he had acted out of character.

"Dinner?" She thought she heard him wrong. They did not go out publicly unless it was to meet with clients.

What made him suddenly invite her to eat out?

It was out of the blue.

"Sorry, but I can't." She did not have any choice but to decline. He did not exactly give her a warning. "I'm going out with Tristan and our friends."
