Chapter 110: Stay With Me
As soon as Greg finished his last bite, he wiped his hands on a napkin and pushed away from the counter, his pulse quickening with each step toward his room. But the moment he reached the door to his en suite, his body betrayed him—his feet rooted to the ground, his hand hovering just inches from the doorknob.
His heart pounded against his ribs.
’Was she serious?’
His mind raced with questions, doubts creeping in where confidence usually reigned. ’Did she really mean for me to join her? Both of us... naked?’
’But she was so clear before—this is just a contract, nothing more. No real feelings. No expectations.’
Then why the hell was she asking him this?
Greg exhaled sharply and ran a hand through his hair. He started pacing, the soft thuds of his footsteps filling the silence.
This was new—this uncertainty. He had never hesitated like this in his life. He was always sure, always decisive. But tonight? He didn’t know what the right move was. He didn’t want to cross a line, didn’t want to make things worse between them.
And yet... he wanted to be near her.
"Greg, are you outside?"
Cammy’s voice sliced through his thoughts, pulling him to a stop. "I can hear your footsteps."
