He Can Be Worse
He Can Be Worse
Kelly’s POV
Klay was silent the whole time we’re in the car. He was just sitting beside he with a straight face and I’m thankful that he didn’t ask anything. However, I’m worried about what’s going on in his mind.
I bit my bottom lip as I remembered what happened between me and Pierce.
He kissed me and my heart instantly beat for him again. This is insanely absurd but I know I couldn’t lie to myself anymore. I’m still in love with him. Even after everything that he’s done and he didn’t do.
“What do you want for dinner?” Klay asked as soon as we entered the huge. family house.
Right! I haven’t eaten anything. Aside from the fact that Lexi ruined my mood, I don’t wanna eat the food in their ‘grand‘ engagement party.
“Just pasta,” I answered without looking at him. I’m still pissed about what he did. He just claimed my baby as his own and he decided on it without consulting me.
I went upstairs leaving him coldly. When I entered my room, I suddenly felt exhausted. I swallowed hard and remembered the heat between me and Pierce again. He just brought my feelings and desire back to life and it’s never good.
I took a cold shower to calm myself down. It was my last resort to ease the heat. Thereafter, I went downstairs wearing silk pajamas. Klay was already at the dining table, waiting for me. He’s wearing a black shirt and cargo shorts.
His eyes were fixated on the screen of his laptop and he had coffee beside it.
“Don’t just stand there, Kelly. Come here and eat,” he said without lifting his eyes to look at me.
I’m pissed with him but he really cares and I’m hungry.
I walked towards the dining table silently and sat in front of him. The chef served the food and my stomach grumbled as soon as the aroma of the delicious pasta reached my nose.
“What happened at the party?”
I froze because of his curiosity. I slowly lifted my face to look at him and he’s impatiently waiting for my answer.
My lips parted. I thought he wouldn’t ask about that. Damn it!
I averted my gaze from him and looked at my pasta. “Nothing.”
I started eating silence while I could still feel his intense eyes on me.
“You don’t dare lie to me, Kelly. I know when you’re upset, when you’re happy, when you’re sad and definitely when you’re lying.”
His manipulative voice made me irritated again. I looked at him but my courage swiftly melted when our gazes met.
My heart raced when he slowly leaned on the table and his thumb reached the side of my lips.
“W–What are you doing?” I panicked when he slowly brushed his thumb against. my lip. After that, he dragged his thumb in his mouth and licked the sauce from
- it.
“You know why I was called the devil in a suit, right? I will ruin every single person who tries to harm you, Kelly and Pierce Anderson will never be an exception. I’m already the worst as I am. I can be worse if he harms you.”
There was something in his eyes and I didn’t even want to think about it. His confession to me was still crystal clear in my head. The memory of that day has been curved in my head and I couldn’t get rid of it. He has feelings for me
and it bothers me so much.
“Your lips may lie, but your eyes can’t. You can’t deny that, Kelly.”
I turned my back on him and was about to leave when his men suddenly
