Falling For The Billionaire Heir

Chapter 40



“Can we hang out on Saturday?” He asked after a while, looking into her warm bright eyes. “Just a trip to the city center.”

“I would love to,” she placed a hand on his. “But I’m going home for the weekend.”

‘Oh. I see,” he filled their glasses with water, feeling a pang in his chest.

“You know what,” she said to assure him. “We can do that next weekend, I will be around.”

“Great!” He said cheerfully as he picked up his fork. “It’s a date then.” Helen nodded. They continued talking in between eating just like they used to do.

He packed the dirty plates to the kitchen when they finished eating. Why don’t you watch TV while I take care of the dishes?” Helen said to him. But he insisted they should both hand wash the plates together.

“Thank you,” Helen said after they finished washing the plates. She wiped her hands and handed him the towel to wipe his, too.

“You are welcome,” he said and chuckled. He stretched out his hand and their eyes locked together. His pupils dilated severally. He exhaled sharply and pulled her into his arms. His eyes looked serious now and darkened all over with familiar passion.

Before she knew it, their mouths met in an instant as if they had a power of their own.

“I missed you,” he said into her mouth. He placed his hands on her ass. Her arms were on his waist as their tongues danced with each other like they used to do. His erection stood so hard between them.

“Tommy,” she moaned into his mouth, squirming. “Tommy.”

He broke the kiss, but his arms remained wrapped tightly around her as he gazed at her lovingly. “I can’t stop loving you, Helen,” he grunted.

“We are friends, Tommy.” She muttered.

“Yes,” he said in a whisper. “We are just friends. I love y….” He started saying and stopped.

“Tommy,” she moaned. Helen’s eyes glistened with unshed tears. She didn’t realize how much she had missed his touch until now.

He cupped her breast through her cloth and kissed her again.

She moaned breathlessly as his other hand groped her body with familiarity; he knew where to touch to make her go wild.

Suddenly, a million bulbs went off in her head!

“Oh my God, oh my God!” Helen muttered and pushed him away. “Tommy stop, stop.” She was panting so hard.

“I’m s…so sorry,” he put his hands away from her body. “I didn’t mean for this to happen. My emotions took over me.”

“My God, how can I be doing this with you?” She burst into tears. “I shouldn’t be doing this with you. I am a married woman for goodness’ sake!” She started sobbing and babbling at the same time.

“I am so sorry, please don’t cry,” Tommy took her in his arms swiftly. “I promise I will never do that to you again.”

Helen threw her hands around his neck with her forehead resting on his shoulder. She didn’t know what to do. She wanted to stay just like that with him forever. But a tiny voice was telling her to move away from his arms. That what they were doing was wrong. She shut her mind against the voice and allowed herself to get lost in the moment.

“We are going to be friends,” he ran his hand up and down her back. “Just friends,” he swallowed hard. “I will not kiss you again.” He said hoarsely, with a voice thick with passion.

She pulled away from him, guided his mouth to hers, and gave him a kiss.

“What is happening here?” Jane’s voice boomed around the kitchen and they suddenly disengaged from each other.

“What is happening here?” Jane walked further into the kitchen and asked again.

“Jane, you are back,” Helen said feebly, and leaned her back against the countertop.

“What are you doing with her, Tommy?” Jane shouted at the top of her voice. “She’s a married woman. Don’t come here again.”

“Calm down, Jane,” Tommy smiled self-consciously. “It’s not what you think.”

“It’s okay Jane,” Helen whispered. “No, it’s not,” Jane retorted and turned to look coldly into Tommy’s face again. “From now on, I don’t want to see you in this house or around Helen anymore.”

“What?” Helen’s eyes widened. “Stop it Jane!”

“No, I won’t stop,” she shouted back at her friend. “You listen!” She addressed Tommy again. “If I ever see you around her again, I will report you to her husband. I believe you are aware of what he can do to you for coming here to seduce his wife.”

“Okay, okay,” he raised his hands. “I have heard you.” He turned to Helen, and said, “take care of yourself.” He walked out of the kitchen quietly.

“What was the meaning of all that?” Helen demanded. “I don’t get it!” “Meaning of what? I’m only looking out for you?”

“Looking out for me?” Helen shrieked with anger. “Who made you my keeper?”NôvelDrama.Org content.

“I don’t know what you are planning to do with Tommy,” she placed her hands on her hips. “But I bet you it’s something you are going to regret later. Trust me.”

“Really?” Helen was beside herself with anger.

“Don’t let him make you do what you’ll regret later, Helen.”

“Oh, you can stand there and claim to be a saint and all.” Helen’s chest heaved with anger. “You can’t understand, anyway. You are with the man you love.” She smiled bitterly. “I forgot you understand well how it is to be forced to stay with a man you do not love.” She shouted back at Jane.

Crestfallen, Jane realized she was out of line with the action she put up. She moved closer to her friend and laid a hand on her shoulder. “Please forgive me. I think it was the shock of meeting both of you kissing that got to me. I’m sorry.”

“Leave me alone,” she shrugged off Jane’s hand.

She walked out of the kitchen. Jane followed her, begging. Helen didn’t budge, she walked into her bedroom and slammed the door shut against her friend’s face.
