A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire novel Chapter 31

There were mixed feelings in Eliza’s heart. She could not stand him at all. Why must he force her?!

"Tanner, you can't do this to me." Her voice was trembling, but that only excited him even further.

“Nothing is impossible.” Tanner’s voice was hoarse, his breathing gradually turned heavier.

Eliza still wanted to say something else, but he did not want to hear it anymore. He kissed her passionately to seal her lips. He left her no chance to refuse.

He held her in his arms and took her to the bed, his long legs leading the way. He then placed her on the bed and leaned forward once more.

But, after that, he stopped.

That was because he saw how red Eliza’s eyes were. There was grievance and anger in her eyes.

"Tanner, I hate you!" She said.

When she said that, Eliza’s eyes were filled with disgust. That sentence was so harsh too!

He finally compromised. Eliza was his weakness, so her disgust towards him hurt him.

He slowly let her go, and then, he turned around and went into the bathroom.

……

That night, Eliza sat on the sofa in the living room. She did not sleep for the entire night. The other person who did not sleep was Tanner. He sat in the study room.

For the next few days, there was almost zero communication between the two of them. Eliza felt a pang of unexplainable guilt which made her feel more and more reluctant to be with him.

Tanner had thoughts about easing the tension between them. However, he did not want to make her cry again.

……

One day, Tanner went on a business trip. He wanted to tell her about it himself. However, that day, Eliza had left early. Sometimes he even wondered if she stayed out for an entire night.

A maid helped him pack the clothes for his business trip. Before he left, he asked Ms. Bell to tell Eliza that he would not be around and that she needed to take care of herself.

……

After she finished working for an entire day, Eliza came back. She had thought about running away. But, no matter what, she knew that she could not escape. Tanner was too powerful and influential. Running away would just be a boring game of cat and mice to him. It would be meaningless.

It was already dark, and she needed to face him again.

She entered the house, and Ms. Bell was waiting for her. To avoid Tanner, she had been eating outside for the past few days. At this point, logically speaking, they should already have left her alone and returned to their own rooms.

"Aunt Bell, what happened?"

Eliza had a good impression of her. When she saw her abnormal behavior, she became worried.

“Mr. Deleon has asked me to tell you that he will be going on a business trip and will be away for a few days. He told me to let you know that you should take good care of yourself. It is getting late, and you should rest earlier.” After Aunt Bell finished conveying the message, she left.

He left for a business trip?

Her eyes suddenly lit up.

For the past few days, in order to avoid him, she tortured herself by leaving early and coming back late. She was extremely tired.

After learning that he left for a business trip, she finally relaxed a little.

Finally! Thank the stars! She could finally have a good sleep!

……

Tanner went on a trip to discuss business with a friend.

Because of their good relationship, both sides signed the contract in no time.

After the business dealings were done, the other party offered to take him around the city for some sightseeing.

“We have not seen each other for so many years. How have you been?”
