Chapter 46 Alarm Night

“So it was a misunderstanding. Mrs. Kingsley, Mr. Kingsley, my apologies.”

Nathan dipped his head slightly, then turned to Elena. “Let’s go home.”

Camille panicked. She had planned to spend the night with Nathan, what was Elena doing showing up out of nowhere?

Elena caught the anxiety in her eyes. She had no desire to be alone with Nathan anyway, so she shook off his hand, her face cold.

“I’m still upset. You brought another woman to a couples restaurant behind my back. I’m not over it.”

Then she turned to Alexander and Evelyn. “Sorry, I’ll get going.”

She walked out in her heels.

“Elena-” Nathan moved to follow.

Baby…

Camille quickly slipped out of her dress, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him eagerly.

Tonight, she had to succeed.

If he wouldn’t go public with her yet, she would do it her way.

Nathan’s head felt heavy and foggy. Camille’s cool skin made him instinctively lean closer. Half–conscious, he looked at the flushed face in front of him, and Elena’s calm, delicate face suddenly flashed through his mind.

‘Elena…”

The name slipped out before he realized it

Camille’s face darkened instantly, though he didn’t notice. She grabbed his hand and pressed it against her  check.

“Baby, it’s me, Camille, Your wife. There’s no Elena.”

She kissed him more passionately.

Nathan’s mind cleared slightly. The woman in his arms wasn’t Elena. He realized what his loss of control

meant.

But the sight of Camille beneath him, soft and alluring, made him lower his head again and kiss her.

Just as they were completely lost in the moment, a sharp, piercing sound suddenly rang out from outside. The fire alarm blared.

Fire? The heat that had just built up in Nathan was instantly killed by the shrill alarm.
