The billionaire's only desire-Chapter 111: infidelity 2

Maya’s heart buzzed in her ears as she watched Dalton storm off. She abruptly got to her feet to chase after him, but she halted. What could she say to vindicate herself? How was she going to explain how she ended up entangled in bed with Dan when her mind refused to provide any evidence of it?

"You better start packing your things and get out of my son’s life. He is clearly done with your promiscuous, lying, cheating ass," Beatrice threw at Maya’s face. However, Maya was in a haze of distress, and none of Beatrice’s words had the impact she intended.

"Maya, stay put," Aiden said, touching her arm. Maya perked up her head to look at him. She couldn’t recall when or how he had come to stand by her side.

"Are you really going to let this slide, too?" Beatrice shouted, her voice rising in hysteria. "Is she going to get away with this just like she got away with the attempted murder of your brother?"

"Alright, I’ve had enough of your nonsense." Aiden snatched his phone from the table, dialed a number, and put the phone to his ear. "I want my mother out of the mansion," he gave a stern order to the person on the other end of the line.

Beatrice scoffs. "I don’t need your savage security men to escort me out. I can do that on my own. I have accomplished my mission. Now this treacherous woman will be out of my son’s life for good." She directed a triumphant smirk at Maya, making Maya coil.

"Ciao," Beatrice left as impactful as she had arrived.

Maya was sinking in. "Did you watch the video too?" Her voice was as fragile as her heart.

Aiden slowly nodded.

"Do you think it was real?"

Aiden was hesitant to answer but did."Yes."

Maya’s heart sank further as she scanned the table, looking for the iPad that contained the record of the crime she had committed, but it was nowhere to be found. "Where is the iPad?"

"I think Dalton took it with him," Aiden said.

"Dalton," Maya muttered, his name sounding like a forbidden word from her lips

Everything was falling apart; she felt as if a wall were closing in on her, suffocating her. How had what looked like a nice lunch, filled with promises of laughter and joy, turned into this? ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Who was that guy?"

"He’s Dan, my former colleague. I got him fired for sexual harassment, and I haven’t seen him since." Maya let out a breath of despair. "I don’t know how I ended up in that bed with him. It all feels so unreal to me."

"Wait, isn’t he that guy I nearly beat up in your restaurant’s parking lot?"

Maya nodded. "Yes, it’s him. Dan."

Aiden said nothing.

"Your mother is right; I should start packing. Dalton hates me now, and there’s no way he could ever forgive me for cheating on him." Maya tightened her grip on her tears, but they began to flow freely from her blue eyes.

"No, don’t go. Dalton took the video with him, right?"

"Yes."

Aiden smirked. "I know what he’s going to do."

"What?"

"Don’t go anywhere. I will be back with Dalton," Aiden said as he rushed out.

Maya wasn’t going to heed Aiden’s words. She didn’t want to see that cold anger that was brewing in Dalton’s eyes again; it scared her and tore at her heart.

She ran back inside, grabbed her keys, and drove her truck straight to Haven’s place to seek solace.

"Christ! You scared me half to death," Charlotte exclaimed, her hands flying to her chest as she backed against the wall. "How did you find my address?"

She then arranged her face into a flirtatious smirk. "Don’t tell me you miss me so much that you had your men track my location. I miss you too, darling."

Dalton growls, his anger intensifying. He went straight to the point of his visit to Charlotte’s house. "I told you to stay away from Maya. What the hell is this?" He thrusts the iPad displaying a video of Maya in bed with Dan in Charlotte’s face.

His mother didn’t have to mention Charlotte’s name for him to immediately realize that this was staged. Maya looked drugged, lying beside that musky man. He could feel a storm of fury raging deep within him. He was angry that Maya had been violated. Only God knows what that man and Charlotte did to her.

Charlotte ground her jaw. "Your little goody-two-shoes chef is cheating on you, and you’re blaming me?" She pulled her head back. "What the hell is wrong with you? How much has that girl brainwashed you, huh?"

Dalton ignored her spiky ranting and calmly said, "I keep giving you more grace than I should, Charlotte because you are a woman. I don’t hurt women. Aiden could have gotten rid of you long ago." He is thinking of worse things he could do to Charlotte. He wishes he were as cruel as Aiden; if he were, he would have blown Charlotte’s head off on the spot.

Charlotte’s eyes widened in fright. "I have nothing to do with your girlfriend sleeping with her coworker. Get out of my house!"

"You have your work cut out for you. You’ll also have to get rid of me, too." A wailing man stumbled through the door, and Aiden appeared behind him with a whip.

"Big bro, I got you a present. This is the wimp, Dan, who had the audacity to lie next to your queen in bed." Aiden struck Dan’s torso with the whip, and a shriek tore from Dan’s lips. He was stripped down to his boxers, and angry whip marks adorned his entire body. Aiden had already begun his torture.

The moment Dalton laid his eyes on Dan, his stomach twisted in disgust. This worm had dared to touch his beautiful Maya. His eyes burned with murderous intent.

Marcello has another body to collect.
