Perfect disguise by Elizabeth A (best books to read for teens .txt) 📖

Dominic's POV.

"Seriously, Chloe?"

She frowned, confused. "What?"

"You used your status to collect my apartment spare kegs, broke into my house and you don't see anything wrong with that?" I challenged her. 

"Come on Dominic, stop acting like this. You were not around and I got tired of waiting for you at the reception. So I took your spare keg and waited for you in your bedroom. There is nothing wrong with that."

My ears stood up when I heard she had entered my bedroom. I hardly allowed anyone into my bedroom and she had walked into it without my permission and she was bold to tell me it wasn't a big deal. It was a deal because she invaded my privacy!

Chloe usually seduced and flirted with me in the office and I didn't get angry over it because that wasn't done in my privacy,but coming into my apartment and staying on my bed is very wrong and it is a big deal.

The only woman who entered my bedroom was Annie and I wanted it to be only her. Still, she sat on a couch and told me there was nothing wrong with her entering my bedroom.

I brushed my head and tried to calm down. It was pointless shouting at her. She had a serious headache and she was very stubborn to listen to me. The only thing I can do is to seize the spare keg from her hands and have a word with the receptionist who gave her the keg in the first place.

I stretched my hand toward her. She looked at it and arched her brows.

"My kegs." I demanded.

She shook her head and clutched her handbag to her side. "No, the spare kegs belong to the company."

"Chloe!" I roared and she jolted in her seat, shocked.

Her round button-like eyes widened as she gaped at me. I took a deep breath and calmed my nerves. She was my boss' wife and I had mistakenly hurt her. So I shouldn't be shouting at her. 

"Chloe." I said calmly.

"Give me the kegs and leave my apartment. I don't want Kenneth to see you here."

She shook her head like a stubborn child who removed to let go of her favorite toys. "No, if I give you these kegs. You won't let me come into your apartment."

I narrowed my brow at her. A tendon under  my chin twitches and my lips tightened. "Don't you understand or are you dumb to realize I don't want you here? You need to stop forcing yourself on me because I don't want you." I spitted at her. 

She smiled sadly and nodded her head in denial. "So, you want her."

Her?

I didn't understand what she said. Who was she talking about? 

Annie? She didn't know her.

Oh, I realized. She was referring to Diana. She sounded jealous and heartbroken. It was ridiculous. We weren't even dating.

Her eyes glowed with tears and she blinked it to withhold herself from crying. "If it was Diana who sneaked into your bedroom, would you shout at her like this?"

I curled my hands and looked at her. She was trying to find out about my true feelings for Diana. I definitely wouldn't be angry if I met Annie in my bedroom, but will I be if I met Diana?

I didn't know how I would feel if it was Diana. She wasn't ever going to sneak into my apartment, so I shouldn't waste my time thinking about the possibility. 

I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. She made me feel bad and I didn't do anything wrong. I only wanted her to leave me alone. "Don't twist my words, Chloe. I'm only asking you to leave my apartment."

She shrugged. "What's so special about her?"

I pocketed my hands. She made me think of the things I didn't consider about Diana. The reason I agreed to pretend to be her boyfriend. The fact that I wanted her to care about me. Why I enjoyed her company.

Even as I searched my mind for an answer, I could put my feelings for Diana into words. Whenever I thought about how I felt for Annie, it was a simple answer. Protective. Supportive. I cared about her and always wanted to protect her. I loved to make her smile and shared her pain with her. That was love, wasn't it?

Chloe stood up and held my cheek. "Dominic—"

"Stop." I brushed her hand away.

Her face fell and she looked like she was fighting back her tears. Something told me it wasn't me that caused her tears. I was just what ignited the pain she had kept away.

I sighed. She was about to cry and I caused it. "I"m sorry, Chloe. I didn't mean to hurt you, but I can't have an affair with you. I'm in love with someone else."

She scrunched her nose at my statement. "I don't believe you." She said and left my apartment.
