She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 1096

Come to think of it...

What was he even doing here?

Had she wanted him so badly that her fractured mind simply conjured an illusion?

But if it really was him...

The ache in her core flared into a desperate inferno. Reaching up, she locked her arms tightly around his neck and pulled him closer.

Their lips collided in a mess of heat and tangled breaths.

The kiss grew punishing, utterly ravenous.

It was a pure explosion of pent-up desire, a volatile spark hitting gasoline.

They moved together with a fierce, desperate urgency, completely consumed by the scent of their passion.

...

The night passed.

Dominic Hale had also stayed at the hotel above the banquet hall.

Since Leila had promised to handle President Arthur Warren, his crucial project was practically guaranteed to get the green light.

Feeling unusually generous, he tried calling her, but both attempts went straight to voicemail.

"What the hell is she doing?"

He grumbled, a flash of annoyance crossing his face.

After finishing breakfast in the hotel lounge, he headed back toward his room.

Before he even reached his door, he spotted a woman curled up on the floor, sobbing uncontrollably.

He nearly jumped out of his skin.

If it wasn't broad daylight, he would have thought he'd stumbled upon a ghost.

But when the woman finally looked up, his shock only deepened.

"Leila? What happened to you?"

The disheveled, weeping mess blocking his door was none other than Leila Langley.

She looked so horrifying that he had barely recognized her.

Her clothes were torn and hanging off her, making it painfully obvious she had been brutally handled.

Her dress was practically ripped to shreds.

But Arthur was an old man. He shouldn't have been capable of that level of aggression.

Besides, hadn't Leila volunteered for this?

All for the sake of his business deal.
