Chapter 132 I Am Never Going To Be Yours
Evelyn
My hands trembled as I dialed his number, the early morning light casting a dim glow through the curtains. Jacob lay asleep, unknown of the turmoil raging inside me, cocooned beneath the duvet. I had tucked him in just moments ago, my heart heavy with the weight of what I was about to do.
I didn't know what the fuck I was doing. All I knew was that it had to be done, and it had to be done right.
The phone rang for what felt like an eternity before he finally answered, his voice thick with sleep. "Hello?"
So, the bastard was indeed sleeping. Probably in some other woman's bed, given his notorious reputation. I was sure he had different women depending on the days.
"Hello, this is Evelyn," I forced out, trying to keep my voice steady despite the storm of emotions raging inside me.
"Evelyn?" There was a note of surprise in his groggy voice.
"Yes, it's me. Though it's a wonder you don't recognize my voice, considering your apparent obsession with the idea of sleeping with me."
"Well, it's not that I don't recognize your voice, Bella Donna. It's just that I didn't expect you to call me at this ungodly hour, especially before I've had the chance to send the bigger bombs your way," he chuckled, his cockiness oozing through the phone line, making my skin crawl. "But, pray tell, what has prompted this early morning call?"
"I don't have time to answer your questions right now. Just give me your address," I demanded, my grip on the railing tightening until my knuckles turned white. I couldn't believe I was actually going through with this. The mere thought of it made me sick to my stomach.
"Anything for you, my love," he replied smoothly. "Take note: Via del Corso, 123, 00186 Roma."
"I'll be there this evening."
"I'll be waiting," he said, his voice dripping with anticipation, a sickening smirk evident even over the phone.
