My Sweet Seduction

Wind Blows

AS SOON AS I entered my car, my cellphone rang. But before I could answer it, the call ended.

I put the handbag on the shotgun seat before starting the engine, but my cellphone rang again.

I took it quickly to answer, but I did not move when I saw Lawrence’s name come out.

My pounding heart is almost choking me. The familiar pain hit my nerve unexpectedly.

I stared at my phone for a beat second, not knowing if the call would be answered or not.

I drew out a breath and decided to turn off my phone. I want him out of my system, and I can only do

that when I can completely avoid him.

I drove quietly home, but my forehead furrowed when I saw the familiar car parked opposite our house.

I was in the car for a few more minutes while staring at the car in front of me.

“This can’t be happening . . .” I shook my head repeatedly.

I crouched down on the steering wheel and tried to calm my submissive heart.

Eventually, I mustered up the courage and decided to walk inside.

“Good evening, Ma’am!” The housemate smiled broadly at me.

“Good evening.” I smiled at her and slowly walked towards the door. I hesitated for a moment when I

heard loud laughter and stories in the living room.

“Margaux!” Mother called my name.

They turned their heads in my direction so I could do nothing but come to kiss them on the cheek

before facing them.

“I missed you so much, daughter,” she said in a crack voice. I feel like she just suppresses the emotion.

“I missed you too, Mom,” I utterly said and hugged it tightly.

“I’m really happy because you did not reject my request tonight.”

“Mom, just says it, and I will be here for you.” I smiled at her and caressed her shoulder.

“Oh, before I forgot, I have a gift for you.” I lifted the paper bag, which she quickly reached.

She excitedly opens the gift. I was also not surprised by her reaction. She got surprised even though

there is a hint of something I can give to her.

“Thank you so much, Margaux,” she delightfully said and kiss my cheek tenderly.

“Love you, Mom,” I countered.

“Ah, hija, I invited Mr. Saavedra to join us here tonight,” Dad interrupted.

I nodded. Instead of glancing at him, I walked towards the dining room.

“What did Manang cook for tonight?” I said casually.

I also sat down first at the dining. Daddy relaxes his back in the center while Mommy is on the right in

front of me.

Lawrence is seated beside Mom, so I have no choice but to avoid looking at him.

I remained quiet the whole time, and I thank Dad for bringing the topic to the table. As usual, the theme

is about business and the upcoming anniversary of the hotel.

I just quietly listen to them. I honestly have no intention of joining the conversation. I tossed my food

lazily and rested my back against the chair.

“How about you, hija? Any suggestions regarding the upcoming event?” Dad asked me.

I immediately looked up at them.

“I’m sorry?” I weakly said.

It was not clear to Dad what I said. I felt like my brain was floating.

“You look tired, hija. Do you want to rest? I already prepared your room,” Mommy told me.

I know how frustrated they are with what I have shown. But I can’t really act normally now. Lawrence is

in front of me. How dare him to laughed and talk to my parents like nothing happened between us?

So, I decided to lower the cutlery I was holding and stand up.

“I’m sorry. I was really tired after a long day. I just need some rest. Please, excuse me.”

I no longer waited for them to speak. I kissed Dad and Mom goodnight, and again, I didn’t even look at

Lawrence.

I WENT STRAIGHT to bed. I also could not change my clothes because I felt tired. About an hour later,

I thought I could sleep, but drowsiness did not visit me.

Why he’s fucking running through my head? I do not understand myself. I also do not understand my

heart as it continues to dominate. I shut my eyes firmly, trying to find the right place to sleep.

But I’m lying wide awake, tossing and turning on my bed. So, in the end, I just decided to go down and

head to the kitchen to get some cold water.

Carrying a glass of water, I decided to go to the back of the house to feel some fresh air, where the oval

shape swimming pool is.

I smiled widely. Suddenly I thought of soaking in water. Maybe I can sleep well tonight if I jump in the

cold water. I didn’t think twice. I took off my clothes until the only thing left was my bikini.

I was stuck in the cold water. I feel like I have lost the weight of my head. I feel refreshed and pristine.

Even my private thoughts instantly vanished.

I swam happily. I went back to the pool for a while before I thought of diving to the bottom. I spent a few

minutes soaking my body in cold water when I felt something fall on the other end of the pool.

I hurried up to pick it up, but I could only see bubbles and water waves.

“Who’s that?!” I shouted.

I waited for it to come up, but a few minutes later, there was still no indication that it was coming up out

of the water.

“Hello! Who’s there?!” I shouted again.

Feeling scared, I quickly looked around. It is impossible for Mom or Dad to jump into the water at night,

even for the maids and the helpers.

I was confused when I felt the water wave in my direction. I was about to swim to get up when

someone suddenly pulled my waist, causing me to sink under the water.

I was panicking. I also struggled hard because of the iron-like arms that hugged me. I could hardly

breathe because of fear.

I thought my breath would last underwater as I used to, but my air seemed to be short of anxiety and

fear.

Until a big hand wrapped around my waist tightly. Before I could move, one of his hands covered my C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

back. Everything happened so fast. We are still under the water. My pulse is beating fast. My air

pressure is about to run out.

And before I pulled away, he had slammed his lips to mine. I hardly had a moment to react because I

nearly knocked all my winds from my lungs.

He gave me an air to breathe, causing me to have a chance to push it away. I took the opportunity to

get away from it and quickly get out of the water.

But before I could get away, he caught me again. He pulled me closer to him, wrapping his arms

around me. My eyes widened when I met the man in front of me.

“Lawrence?! What the fuck are you doing here?!”

I pushed him away with all my might, but his embrace was too strong, and I sunk into the warmth of his

body.
