Page 71 of Pursued By My Grumpy Fiancé
“Why did you do this, Ivan? I understand Victoria, motivated by her lingering love for me,” Landon shoots me a look as he says this.
Is he trying to make me jealous? That’s cute.
“Is it because you’re bankrupt?”
Ivan sits up, anger flashing across his features.
“I made one bad business deal, and it took everything. Honestly, it was ridiculous. I needed a way to recoup my loss. By obtaining my share in Gould Holdings, I knew that I would make way more money than I even lost in the first place.” After a moment, he grins, leaning back in his chair and throwing an arm around me.
“So, now you admit that it was blackmail?” Landon says casually, as if this isn’t the one confession we truly need.
“Of course it was blackmail! A mole child would know that. Only you would need that sort of clarification.” Ivan rolls his eyes, then turns to me.
My stomach turns as he smiles. He licks his lips and leans in. I pull back.
“Actually,” I say softly, “the only ones who needed that sort of clarification were the police, listening on the wire I’m wearing.”
I unbutton my overshirt to reveal the hidden microphone. Ivan’s jaw goes slack, his eyes widening at my reveal. Landon smirks.
“Took you long enough to catch on,” I say as I get up and put my lips gently against Landon’s.
“I was so overcome with jealousy that I couldn’t even think straight,” he admits.
Ivan suddenly shoots out of his chair, knocking it over.
“Oh my god, the police are coming. I need to go.” He stumbles around the room, for which there is only one exit.
Before he can take another step in any direction, the door bursts open, four police officers entering the room.
“Ivan Sokolov, you are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right…”
The rest of the rights read by the officer don’t register with me as I turn to focus my attention on the man by my side.
“That was exhilarating!” I shout suddenly as the police make their way out of the room, the door shutting softly behind them.
“You know what else is exhilarating?” He bites his lip, and I know exactly what he thinks is exhilarating.
My lips meet his in response. His tongue swirls against mine, passion heating up between us. He pushes me back onto the desk, slowly unbuttoning my overshirt.
“Hmm, the wire,” he mumbles before ripping it off of me and stomping on it.
“Hey, sir. That’s police property,” I tease. He responds by ripping off his own wire and doing the same thing.
“They can buy new ones,” he whispers in my ear before kissing the side of my neck softly.
He fondles my breasts, moving them under my bra.
Suddenly, he stands up, looking down at me laying on the desk.
“Hailey, I am so turned on right now, and even though you’re beautiful, it’s definitely because you’re the most clever woman I’ve ever met.”
I giggle as his fingers make quick work of my shorts, undoing the buttons and pulling them down my legs at record speed.
He teases his fingers against my sensitive spot, causing me to gasp. He doesn’t focus on it though, instead hooking his finger and plunging it deep inside me.
“Ohh,” I moan, my back arching on top of the desk.
The tip of his finger brushes furiously against the ribbed area inside me, bringing sweet moans from my lips in a constant rhythm.
