My Sweet Seduction novel Chapter 75

UDDENLY, MY CELLPHONE rang because of Cindy’s call.

“Hello, Margaux?”

I immediately noticed the noisy background on the other line.

“Oh, why?!”

“Come here now!” she said hysterically.

I suddenly woke up in bed because of the tone of her voice.

“Where?”

“Here in Eastwood, in the Royal Highs Subdivision. Just say Carrick’s name to the guard!” After she said that, she turned off the call.

Though confused, I obeyed what she said. I headed to the place Cindy was talking about. Gradually I got an idea of what was going on, but I did not want to make a conclusion about it until I had no concrete evidence.

In a few moments, I reached the place she says. I looked up at the mansion, where a party was taking place.

I tried to call Cindy, but I could not contact her. As she said, I mentioned Carrick’s name to the guard, so I went inside.

The front yard is already crowded with guests. Others are completely drunk. I tried to go around looking for Cindy. My eyes wandered to the large pool where a lot of women are wearing only a bikini.

I looked down at the jeans I was wearing and the white T-shirt. Anyone will be distracted by what I am wearing because it is inappropriate on occasion.

I tried to go inside the house, and there, I found her dancing. I quickly approached her with a trace of shock when I saw her.

“Margaux, you’re here!” she exclaimed.

Suddenly she pulled me by the arm and led me to a corner where very few men were.

“Do you and Lawrence have a problem?” Cindy asked me in a low tone.

“I don’t know. We haven’t met all day. We’re supposed to have lunch together, but Franco and I met.”

“Damn it!” she cursed sharply.

It was there that I became very nervous, especially when her eyes rolled as if she was looking for something.

“Cindy, what is happening?!” I asked with my raised voice.

“He’s with Elliesse! I saw them together earlier. I don’t know if they came here at the same time, but Lawrence is so drunk!”

I rubbed my forehead. What the fuck is he doing here? I do not remember Lawrence and I have a problem. So how did it happen that he and Elliesse were together?

“Let’s find out!” Cindy pulled me hard and wrestled with the dancers.

I quickly turned to a table near the swimming pool. And there, Lawrence sits in front of a few bottles of wine.

My heart slaughter as I saw him with Elliesse at one of the bungalows near the pool.

“Lawrence?!” I approached him, who looked up at me. His dark eyes bore into mine, and because of its extreme darkness, I could not breathe properly.

“Well, well, well. The fiancée is here. You didn’t tell me that this woman is always on your tail wherever you go,” Elliesse stated, who’s wearing a pair of bikinis hugging only a thin fabric.

“Can we talk?” I could hear the trembling in my voice as I spoke to Lawrence.

He looked up at me, and I looked into his eyes. But it was like nothing was there to behold. He just gave me a bitter smile before standing up.

We went inside the mansion in silence.

“What are you doing here with Elliesse?” Finally, I have the courage to speak.
