BXBX NOVEL Chapter 173 - Tom Is My Boss
Sonia grinned as she tried to pull away from him, "I wasn't stealing a kiss. I was only paying off my debt," Sonia said reminding him of the kiss she had promised to give him earlier after Mia interrupted their moment together in his bedroom.
"That is really a lousy way to pay a debt. Never mind, I will just collect it myself," Bryan said as he placed a hand on the back of her head to hold her in place as he deepened the kiss, making her blood pound.
He pulled Sonia to himself so that she straddled his thighs, and his hands ran down her back, grabbing her ass and squeezing it softly. Sonia's heart thudded against his chest, in sync with his heartbeat, and she let out a soft moan as she kissed him back, burying the fingers of her left hand in his hair while her right hand moved between them to caress his broad muscled chest.
Bryan kissed around the edges of her lips and then opened his eyes as he kissed his way down to her chin, and then slowly found his way to her neck, dropping light kisses as he moved, while his hands snaked around her waist until they found their way under her gown.
Sonia closed her eyes and threw her head back as she gave him more access to her neck while moaning softly. Her heartbeat increased following the movement of his hands, and her breath came in shallow gasps as his breath fanned her neck. She gave a throaty moan when he let his teeth graze her jaw, and her hand moved to stroke his back.
Just when she reached to take off his polo shirt, Bryan grabbed her hand, and she opened her eyes to give him a questioning look.
"I intend to frustrate you, Sonia Smith," Bryan said with a wicked glint in his eyes, reminding her of what she had done to him the last time she seduced him on his bed.
Although Sonia was burning with a need for him, she threw back her head to laugh, "Nice one, Bryan. Very nice," she said with a nod of approval as she got off his thighs.
"I know, right?" Bryan said with a grin, even though the bulge in his trousers was visible to them both. He wanted to do so much with her, but not just yet. Perhaps if it was another lady, he would have gone all-in and had sex with her, but seeing just how enthusiastic Sonia was about having sex with him, he wasn't in a hurry.
Sonia smiled at him as she just sat back and looked into his eyes, "Why do you look so fine? Or is it just my eyes?" Sonia asked, making Bryan chuckle.
"Perhaps it's just your eyes. Your feelings are making you blind," Bryan said before remembering to ask, "I thought you wanted to talk to Lucy? Have you done that yet?" He asked curiously.
"Yeah, she busied my call, so I'm waiting for her to call back... Oh! She's calling now," Sonia announced when her phone started ringing and she picked it up.
"Hey, baby!" She greeted as she sat up and turned away from Bryan.
"Are you alone? Is Bryan there with you?" Lucy asked in an urgent tone which caused Sonia's brows to pull together as she turned to look at Bryan while wondering what was going on with Lucy. She didn't sound like she was fine.
"Uhm, sort of. Why?"
"Could you go somewhere else? Somewhere we could talk in private?" Lucy asked, and Sonia stood up at once, but not without mouthing to Bryan to excuse her.
Bryan gave her a sad pout like he was sad to watch her leave, and slapped her ass playfully, making Sonia glare at him playfully too as she hurried away. Before she completely disappeared out of his sight, his phone started ringing and he quickly picked it up when he realized that it was a call from Tom. It was only just then that he realized that he hadn't talked to Tom in a while.
"What's going on, Lu? Are you okay?" Sonia asked as she walked into the guestroom she had been using and shut the door before going into the bathroom.
"I don't think I'm okay. I'm not fine. One moment everything was fine and going so perfectly, and the next minute it just feels like... Like I'm about to lose my mind," Lucy cried as she broke into a sob, unable to hold back the tears anymore.
Sonia's brows creased with a frown as she tried to make sense of what Lucy had just said, "Calm down, Lu. Please don't cry. What's wrong? Did Tom do something?" Sonia asked, reasoning that whatever was wrong with Lucy had to be connected with Tom as he was the only person who was close to her over there.
Lucy sobbed for a while and then she took off her glasses to wipe the tears off her eyes with the back of her hand, and dropped the glasses on the table. It wasn't like she needed the glasses to speak to Sonia.
"Did you know that Tom is the same person as Thomas Hank?" Lucy asked with a sniffle, and Sonia's heart skipped a beat.
"What are you talking about?" Sonia asked in confusion. Although she had written in the manuscript of her novel that Lucy's driver was also her boss, she hadn't expected it to be true. Lucy's driver was actually Bryan's brother?
"You heard me. Tom is my boss. He deceived me! He lied to me after I trusted him. To think that I was almost falling for him and now this..."
"Slow down, Lu. Just calm down and slowly tell me all that transpired between you both," Sonia said as she cut off Lucy's bitter diatribe.. Had Lucy not been crying, she would have been over the moon with joy that Lucy had said she was falling for Tom.
