Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic) novel Chapter 616
My jaw tightened.
"Everyone knows you're the whore who slept with her best friend's husband." She shrugged, delicate and cruel. "So who is this pitiful act for?"
"Celeste."
"As for buying Ford Biosciences, don't think too highly of yourself." She picked up her coffee and took a sip. "I just don't want my fiancé, Dominic Ford, to feel sick each time he sees his name associated with something that belongs to you. If I buy it, I'll change it to a mall or something. Anything, as long as my Dominic's name isn't on it. Getting his name off that property will be one of my wedding gifts to him."
The heat climbed up my neck, my hands balling into fists in my lap.
"So only one of two things needs to happen here." She set her cup down and folded her hands on the table. "You bring the document, I read it, and we both sign. If that's not going to happen, I walk out of here, because unlike you, I have better things to do with my time."
I stared at her, my face burning red, my fists clenched so tight my nails bit into my palms. I wanted to scream, wanted to knock that smug smile right off her face, wanted to grab my bag and walk out and never look back.
But I needed the money. I needed it more than I needed my pride.
With gritted teeth, I reached into my bag, pulled out the document, and placed it on the table.
Celeste picked it up and read through it slowly, taking her sweet time. "Everything looks good."
She signed it with a flourish.
She copied out my account number from the document, tucked the paper into her own bag, and tapped at her phone. The transfer notification landed on my screen at that exact instant. Two hundred thousand dollars.
She got up, drained the rest of her coffee in one long swallow, and slid her shades over her eyes. "It was nice doing business with you, Miss Seraphine Eagle."
She started for the door.

The readers' comments on the novel: Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic)
Agent Frost better teach Tasha how to protect herself if anything gets out of hand or if she’s ever in danger or forced again...
I need some good news for Tasha. Special Agent hear her out and don’t let her get back into that life. Do I hear a romance or someone Tasha can truly count on besides Scarlett??...
I hope Tasha is let off and helped by this detective and gets away from all this maybe a twist for this novel is she gets on the good side of things and gets away from that life completely even if she has to separate herself from Scarlett but it appears Tasha gets hurt by Scarlett’s and sparrow’s stupidity as she’s blamed for Scarlett’s decisions...
Her life is ruined and Scarlett’s been living a luxurious life through it all...
I officially hate everyone for hurting Tasha and allowing things to happen to her. This whole Sparrow and Scarlett situation is some BS....
It’s a bit stupid that as powerful and ruthless sparrow is he and Scarlett sure do a lousy job of protecting and having guard on Tasha. Like how did all of this happen to her if he was supposed to be protecting her based on the contract??...
More Chapters Please...
I thought it said 10 chapters a day??? It’s been like 2-3 days and no update after chapter 574. The release time is so inconsistent, I have started to just loose interest....
Just find Tasha and get her some help. How did she have sparrow’s men watching her if she really cared so much. Scarlett’s character is so suspect…...
Storyline is interesting it’s just so much sexual content I have to skip through just find out the main context of the story....
