In the billionaire’s bed - Season 1 - Episode 117

“Yes. I would.” He sighed. “I’m sorry for lashing out like that… It’s just- I’m not used to the idea of you talking or seeing Rafael, I just feel like it’d change us.”
“Change us?” I asked, not getting his point of view.

“Change the way you feel about me.”
Why is he even thinking this?
“Nothing can ever change the way I feel about you Emeliano… I’ll never leave you, unless you want me to.”
He leaned in to kiss me. “I love you.” He whispered against my lips.
“I love you too.”

I wasn’t convinced… Something was wrong. I could feel it, and I couldn’t wait to get to the bottom of things… I couldn’t wait to clear this little gap between Emeliano and I… Something was missing, something was not in the right place; and I knew this relationship wouldn’t work unless I figure it out.
“Aren’t you late for work?”
“I am. But I’ll be in time for the meeting if I leave now.”

“Then hurry.” I smiled, making an attempt to brush his hair into right places, but he stopped me.

“No time.” He said, kissing me again and rushing out of the room.

When I was sure he was out of earshot, I rushed to my phone quickly… Calling up the only person who could tap me in on what the hell was happening.

She picked up on the fourth ring.
“Becca? Why are you calling my personal line… Emeliano isn’t-”

“I know Piper, he just left the house… Actually, it’s you I want to talk to.”

“Oh… That’s a first.”
“Yeah, like they say… There’s a first time for everything.”

Piper chuckled. “Indeed… So what’s up?”
“What do you say about lunch? I’ll meet you at the restaurant closer to Emeliano’s company. Yeah?”

“Um…. Sure, it’s fine by me.”
“Awesome.”

“So, what did you want to talk about?” Piper asked taking a sip of her soda.
“Yeah.” I dropped my coffee mug… “I’m worried.”
“Worried? About what?” Piper’s brows came together.

“Emeliano.” I said, pausing for a bit before speaking. “Is something going on with him? Did something happen between Rafael and him recently?” I asked.

Piper shifted on her seat, looking everywhere but my area. “No why?”

She was lying to me… Something did happen between Rafael and Emeliano recently… But why are they trying to hide it from me?
“Piper, you can trust me… I won’t tell Emeliano you told me anything… I just want to end all this family drama… I want us to live peacefully… Emeliano doesn’t trust me enough to let me in on everything, and I totally understand that. But if he thinks he can handle everything on his own, he’s only trying to ruin our relationship… But I won’t let that happen. You have to help me.” I said with pleading eyes.

Sighing, Piper leaned in. “I didn’t tell you anything… Clear?”
“Clear.”
