My Dad's Bestfriend

Chapter 162 Lucky Day

Evelyn

"Why... why should he leave?" I mustered the courage to ask, though my nerves danced on a razor's edge. His stance, his penetrating gaze, the weight of his question—all combined to fray my composure. There was an undeniable force in his presence, his fucking aura, one that threatened to bring me to my knees.

"Because I said so," he retorted, his voice laced with icy resolve, his eyes daring me to challenge him. Despite the cocktail of nerves, guilt, and desire swirling within me, I found the strength to respond. "Your word may be law in your domain, but not here," I countered, arms folded defiantly across my chest. "Cameron stays."

Jacob's jaw tightened, his fists clenched at his sides, and a storm brewed in his gaze, anger palpable in every line of his body. I knew he wouldn't harm me physically, but his methods were unpredictable. Would it be a stern reprimand or something far more... intriguing? Well no, it'd be wicked. Absolutely fucking wicked.

"Evelyn, it's fine," Cameron interjected, ever the peacemaker. "I can go. We've had a good day together-I couldn't ask for more. It's okay." He offered me a gentle smile, seeking to diffuse the mounting tension.

"No, it's not just because he said so that you'll leave," I insisted, seizing his hand as he began to retreat, locking eyes with Jacob. I refused to let him assert dominance unchecked. He may think he holds all the strings, but I was not his puppet.

"Okay, since my word isn't sufficient," Jacob's voice cut through the air, firm and unwavering, his gaze piercing and unsettling at times. "Would it be acceptable if your father were to decree his departure? It's been quite the conversation from what I can gather, with you two locked away in this room for who knows how long, doing what. Doesn't seem quite gentlemanly for him to linger in your room for such an extended period, does it?"

Cameron's jaw tensed visibly at Jacob's words, and for a moment, a silent battle raged between them, their eyes locked in a challenge. Unbeknownst to me, Cameron's gaze flicked momentarily to mine as I remained fixated on Jacob, torn between the urge to kiss him or fucking kill him. Then, with a dismissive chuckle, Cameron shrugged off Jacob's barb and addressed him.

"Alright then!" Cameron raised his hands in surrender, a lighthearted grin playing on his lips. "I'll take my leave, sir. My apologies for overstaying."
