Daddy CEO’s Beloved Wife - Chapter 573 Honey Trap? (Announcement)

Chapter 573  Honey Trap? (Announcement)

Ran Xueyi had prepared herself for what was behind that door. She imagines that when she opens that door, Evgenia will have his hands on her friend, who teethers between life and death as she is unable to call for help. But no one had braced her for what was in front of her.

Perhaps, not only her. No one expected the scene right in front of their eyes.

Alina was safe and sound. She was more alive than she was when they saw each other a few hours ago. Her hands were obscured from sight at the back of Evgenia’s neck, and her legs parted as she straddled his strong and thick thighs. Her face was planted on the man’s face while her lips busily sucked on his lower lips. The same thing could also be said about Evgenia. His hands rested on the small back of her friend, adding pressure to the friction and the space that no longer existed between their lower bodies. The sound that came from their mouths as they distractedly made out on the chair was like an unexpected blow of the horn for the Day of Judgment.

With her jaw forgotten on the ground, Ran Xueyi gaped at her best friend and Evgenia practically all over each other.

Never would she have thought that their relationship had turned into something more. When did it start? How? And why didn’t Alina say anything about the fact that she had something going on with her captor?

Feeling slightly embarrassed walking in on her best friend making out with who was their enemy, Ran Xueyi found herself torn between dragging Alina out of the room or punching Evgenia for seducing her best friend. Right now, she just wants to rewind to the time when her eyes were still clean and ignorant about their progressing albeit toxic relationship.

“Boss.” The big guy who led her into this room appeared behind her.

As soon as his voice landed in their ears, three people froze.

Three pairs of eyes glanced at each other. Ran Xueyi felt it was too hard to keep a neutral expression when the two who had been caught making out were staring at her in shock.

Then, in a matter of seconds, Alina flew from Evgenia’s lap and stumbled on the floor. Her heart caught in her throat as she tried to utter some semblance of explanation, but came short as her mouth copied that of a dying fish. A pink hue overtook the color of her wheat-colored skin.

“Xueyi, this is.” Alina paused, unsure what to say. Should she tell Ran Xueyi that she was blinded with anger and decided that since she had no way to make Evgenia suffer, she assaulted him by kissing him? But that wouldn’t explain why he had to kiss her back. Now, why didn’t he push her away?

Turning to the man in question, whose lower lip was busted from her biting and sucking, Alina cursed inwardly as her eyes inevitably traveled lower to where a tent was already forming between his inner thighs. There was no way she could explain that to Ran Xueyi either, right?

Ran Xueyi crossed her arm across her chest and tilted her head slightly, trying hard not to look like a mother who had just caught her teenage daughter sneaking a man inside her room.

“Care to tell me if this is just a fling or something?”

“One-time fling.”

“Something.”

Both culprits simultaneously answered, but different words came out of their mouths.

Alina gritted out. “A one-time thing.”

Evgenia met her gaze for a few seconds and shrugged. “I can’t guarantee that.”

Glaring at him, Alina approached Ran Xueyi. “Why are you here, by the way?”

Ran Xueyi continued staring between the two of them, not totally buying what her best friend had just said. Settling her gaze on Alina, she answered with a sigh. “I was going to accompany you tonight. But I guess you have that already covered.” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Alina felt the rush of blood in her cheeks, feeling even more embarrassed. When Ran Xueyi flew across the globe to rescue her, she was on her way to bedding her captor. Just kill me. Alina groaned.

Suddenly, a warm touch ghosted against her arm. When Alina looked up, Evgenia had already walked past her, making his way to the door. She watched as he spoke to the muscular bodyguard who stood near the door. Their voices were low as they spoke.

“I didn’t think you would sleep with him.” Ran Xueyi entered the room and sat on the edge of the bed.

“I wasn’t going to.”

Ran Xueyi arched her eyebrows. “Really?”

“Really.” Alina leveled her gaze with hers, trying to look more convincing.

“I’m not criticizing you, Alina.” Ran Xueyi held her gaze. “I just think doesn’t this work well for all of us?”

“What do you mean?”

Ran Xueyi smiled.

“No.” Alina refused immediately.

There was no way she was going to use a honey trap to make Evgenia do everything she want even if that idea sounds so freaking delicious and appealing.

Besides, what was the use of saying this when the man was right outside and could be hearing what they had just said?

But, deep down, Alina was leaning into doing it. Not because she wanted to use him. But because she was curious. She imagined what sleeping with him would feel like and taste like. His woodsy and minty scent lingered in her nose even when he was standing feet away from her. The feel of his hard and muscular body could make any woman reluctant to get up. And she wondered how his hands would feel underneath her clothes.

And that tent she saw earlier. At a glance, she knew he would be big. But what would he feel, smell, and taste like?

Fuck. Now she’s drooling over him.

It had been over two years since she last got laid, using only her fingers and toys to relieve the ache and itch between her thighs because any man wouldn’t do. No one. Her life was too messed up and dangerous for anyone to stay long. And she didn’t want any passing one-night stand that could be used against her.

And Evgenia was a forbidden fruit she shouldn’t even think of devouring. He was not just any man. He was the reason why she was in that place and why Ran Xueyi had to come here in hopes of rescuing her.

He was as sinful as he was dangerous.

Yet Alina couldn’t deny that, despite everything and anything, that should make her hate him. She didn’t. Call her fickle or whatever. Her mind was just wired differently from your ordinary, good girl. She liked her men bad. And Evgenia? He’s more than that.

A flurry of footsteps entered their ears, and a couple of bodyguards appeared in front of the room.

Alina stopped her musing and looked at Ran Xueyi, who was already alerted by their appearance.

“What’s going on?” Ran Xueyi walked to the door.

Evgenia set his jaws hard, his lips forming a line. “Intruders have come.”

The light flickered once before plunging the room into sudden, complete darkness.

The author has something to say: Updates will be scheduled on Monday and Thursday. I will do a mass release on September 1. I feel bad that it took a long, as in a long time, to end this and keep my readers waiting. Everything has been hectic on my side, and it took a whole lot of time for me to recover from depression and anxiety to pick this book up again. But I’m still so fortunate and grateful that you guys stuck to this story and didn’t give up on it to this day. The good news is, instead of creating new privilege tiers that you need to buy with coins, the readers can use their FastPass to unlock the chapters (unless it’s a bulk of chapters, you still need to use some coins).

The novel will officially end next month (unknown day)!
