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 61

                            Jacob Mackay

Jacob had been gone for a few hours. After leaving Sutton in bed, he disappeared. No one knew where he had gone except him, of course. His phone rang nonstop since the early hours of the morning. It was Sutton. She tried reaching him, wanting to find out why he had disappeared so suddenly, but he wasn't ready for that yet. He ignored her calls, making a mental note to return the calls later and explain himself.

It was daybreak. Jacob was back at Mayce. He had stopped by his apartment to shower and get dressed. He also swapped cars. He had been driving the Spyder for weeks now. He took the Audi with him today instead, and drove to work with his mind in chaos. There was no peace for him yet.
