Torn Between The Carter Brothers

“Absolutely not.” I bit out.

I was beyond irritated right now. I had carefully planned today, from showering Addison with all my attention, to love bombing her throughout, seduce her here and there, drive her crazy with subtly touches as well, then fuck her good at the end of the day.

Of course Marco would want to intrude on this plan today, cause clearly, he still likes Addison. Still not enough to break off his ridiculous wedding, but enough to ensure that she doesn’t remain with me.

What a selfish bastard.

The call I took this morning was from my friend slash data analyst, and he informed me he was still yet to get any solid dirt on Marco and my father. To completely win against them after the wedding gets called off, I still need solid proof of them being bad people, so they won’t be able to retaliate.

Right now, briefly wondered if I could find solid proof in Marco’s phone, but I just know getting my hand on his phone would be near impossible.

Marco frowned, acting clueless. “But why not? A double date is gonna be fun, don’t you think so, Addison?”

I glanced down at Addison, already expecting that she wouldn’t be able to respond because usually,

she gets tongue tied whenever Marco focuses on her like this, and I know he’s aware, which is why he

does it a lot.

“She was really looking forward to exploring Italy, I don’t think she’d want a joint date.” I responded on her behalf while she nodded jerkily, but I just know deep down she’s wishing they would come with us, so she’d be able to soak up any little moment she can get with Marco,

Love really makes people dumb.

“But it’s really gonna be fun! The more, the merrier!” Aisha cried out this time, her eyes solely on me and I felt Addison scoff beside me.

Because I really want Aisha to feel like I’m playing into her games, I ended up sighing in response. “You’re right, it might really be fun,”

She squeaked happily and rushed towards me to hug me, right in front of a shocked Marco who stared at Aisha like he couldn’t believe his eyes. Aisha didn’t even notice, because after she pulled back, she whirled around and slipped out of the kitchen.
