Forever Yours Chapter 41: Estera Roberts' POV (Ten Years Before)
After last night’s encounter with Evan Sterling, I thought to avoid him like the plague. I made a few resolutions while I struggled with insomnia. And every single one of them boils down to me running in the opposite direction whenever I see him. Except he took that choice from me. The following day after work I found the same grey sports car that he used to drive me home the previous night waiting outside as I walked out of the restaurant. I first thought perhaps he just entered the building and was wondering why he loved visiting restaurants late at night. But then I saw a uniformed chauffeur exit the car and approached me. The man was of a typical average American height, and weight with light brown eyes, clean-shaven, with hair cut low to his scalp, and I guessed he couldn’t be less than fifty years old.“Miss Roberts?” he called hesitantly with a hint of Texas drawl and sounded like he wasn't entirely certain it was me.“Yes,” I answered.“Good evening, Mr. Evan Sterling, assigne
Forever Yours Chapter 42: Estera Roberts' POV (Ten Years Before)
After Evan’s stunt with the car and Henry, I figured he would return in a day or two and I would be able to grill him as he said but that didn’t happen. And after waiting for his return for about seven days, my feelings changed from indignation to anxiety. I grew more anxious with each passing day he didn’t show. And when three weeks passed without him reaching out to me I waited for my aunt to return from the Sterling’s mansion one Friday night.“Aunt Sophia, have you heard anything about Evan Sterling?” I asked after she had settled down for her nightly reading. She removed her reading glasses and peered at me.“He is out of town, darling,” she replied with a knowing glint in her eyes. “He sometimes leaves for months, global throttling, overseeing his family businesses. But he always comes back,” she explained.“Okay,” I said in a small voice and turned away, feeling really close to tears that he would still be gone for much longer. I suppose my aunt saw my dejection at the news, an
Forever Yours Chapter 43: Estera Roberts' POV (Ten Years Before)
I subtly darted my eyes about silently praying for Brian to show up and get me out of the impending public spectacle Joyce didn't seem to mind making of herself, but he was nowhere in sight. And if I thought I hated the bitch before it was even double-fold now.“Sorry, do I know you?” I said, thinking that would buy me time as I looked down my nose at her. I was at least a head taller and in heels, it was quite easy. I wondered how I looked but I hoped it was the pose of an evil, not-to-be-trifle-with villain.“What?” she said and seemed unsettled for about a second before placing her hands over her small hips, giving me a cold once over. She looked as chic as the last time I saw her. She wore a gold dress that showed off her cleavage. It’s a pity there wasn’t much going on there. ‘Maybe Evan likes flat-chested women,’ the thought filtered into my head fueling my anger further.“Is everything, okay?” the dark-haired guy she was with asked looking a bit embarrassed.“She is a waitre—”
Forever Yours Chapter 44: Estera Roberts' POV (Ten Years Before)
Despite how scary the night started for me, it proceeded pretty nicely, Brian introduced me to his friends and I was so conscious that these people might also be Evan’s friends. And the thought of doing or saying anything embarrassing kept me from contributing much to their discussion. But I was glad to enjoy being invisible for a while. Brian ushered the servers my way to get me food and drinks. I did my best to avoid drinks with alcoholic content and was glad nobody noticed. I felt like a baby trying to play in the big leagues. But I promised myself to at least try a glass of champagne before I leave.“How is it going?” Brian asked as he came to stand behind me“Pretty well,” I said. He chuckled.“Sorry, I had to mingle and be sure everyone is at least having a good time. And now that I have earned a break, care for a dance?”“Sure, why not,” I said. He collected the drink I was holding and dropped it in a tray of a passing server, and then reached for my hand and shepherded me to t

Her voice was faint but I heard it. And with how Brian suddenly went still and looked in the direction Estera went, I knew he heard it too. The two of us exchanged a look and ran towards the exit. Pushing people out of our way. By the time we got to the main exit door, I was in the lead. I rushed down the flight of stairs with Brian on my tail.“Estera!” I called loudly and heard a muffled sound coming from the left side of the building. I ran in that direction like a crazy person. And that was when I saw them: Tyler with his pants down, struggling to subdue Estera. He had torn her clothes, leaving her undies exposed under the dull shine of the garden light. I stalked his back, pulled him back from her, and punched him repeatedly in the face. “You piece of shit! You dared to touch her!” I raved in a low enraged tone. He tried to speak but didn’t get a chance. I was merciless. I didn’t stop hitting him until my knuckle was bloodied and his face was unrecognizable.Brian rushed to Est

“She has drugs in her system, Mr. Sterling. I just got the report from her samples sent back to the hospital. It’s a little doze so it shouldn’t take long to wear off - roughly about 30 minutes give or take, but she ingested—”“She didn’t ‘ingest’ drugs, doctor, it was given to her and she didn’t take alcohol too. So, you can rule that one out as well!” I snapped at the doctor sent to examine Estera. And started to pace. “What kind of drug is it?” I asked in a more temperate tone.“Ketamine. If she didn’t ingest it that means it was mixed with water and she was injected with it,” she said and went to the side of the bed where Estera lay unconscious and started to examine her arm. I watched silently and saw when she paused for a long while examining a particular spot on Estera’s left arm. I went to stand on the other side of the bed, still watching her.“See this…” she said, and I knelt on the bed to have a closer look. “This tiny reddish spot here may have been where she was injected,

“I don’t want Brian, Evan. I don’t want any other man either! I didn’t go there to get hooked up I just needed a friend. You have no right to think the worst of me.”“Estera—”“Is that what you think that I want? A rich guy?” she asked and slightly drew back from me as she averted her eyes. I watched her lips tremble as if she could barely hold in her emotions.“No,” I replied, feeling like an ass.“Why did you say that to me, Evan?” she said, darting me a hurt-filled gaze.“I—”“So, you think whatever this is … this thing we have – is because of your money?” she said, and made an effort to pull completely away. I didn’t let her. I gripped her by the nape of her neck, making her gaze into my eyes.I didn’t make any attempt to mask my emotions. I wanted her to see what I was feeling in my eyes. And then I repeated firmly, “No.” “Why then did you say that to me, Evan?” She asked again with fresh tears streaming down her beautiful face.“I was out of line–-” I started to apologize“I wa
Forever Yours Chapter 48: Estera Roberts' POV (Ten Years Before)
“Let me take care of you first, okay?” Evan whispered as he lowered me to the bed. The mere touch of his body against mine was making me breathless. The sensation generated by the touch of our skin was enough to drive me to climax. It felt that good. Evan was beautiful naked. And I just want the opportunity to touch him all over and take him in. I wrapped my arms around his broad shoulders, rubbing my chest against his skin, not letting go even when my back was pressed to the mattress. Evan groaned and lifted me up again, sitting on his heels as he ran his open palms up and down my naked back. “You are driving me crazy, Estera,” he whispered against my left ear.“You, are driving me crazy,” I whispered back, pressing my lips to his jaw. He chuckled. “Give me room to touch you,” he said and the request sounded like a plea.“I want to touch you first,” I replied as I was peppering kisses to his throat and he tilted his head back to give me room. I could feel him throbbing under my bu
