His Mistress is His Ex-Wife
Chapter 122: A Bad Girl

Chapter 122: A Bad Girl

"It’s 3:00 am but Lanny hasn’t arrived yet," Enzo mumbled, checking the time on his phone.

He kept tossing and turning around his bed. He hadn’t slept yet since he was waiting for Lanny’s arrival.

He called Athena last night regarding Lanny. But Athena just told him not to worry since Lanny went to the club owned by Vladimir.

"Sigh. Should I call her? Don’t tell me she sleeps in a hotel room together with a guy?"

Enzo sat up on his bed, dialing Lanny’s number.

Ring! Ring!

Her phone was ringing but Lanny was not answering.

"C’mon, Lanny. Please answer me." He contacted her again.

Enzo got off his bed and headed outside. That was also the time Lanny alighted from a taxi cab.

"Oh, is that Enzo? What is he doing outside?" Lanny mumbled as she traced her steps toward Enzo’s spot.

"Did he wait for me? Hmm... I should pretend to be drunk." Lanny smiled mischievously.

Contrary to Lanny’s expression, Enzo looked so serious.

He ran in her direction when Lanny staggered a little and swayed as she pretended to be drunk.

"Hey, careful!" Enzo captured her in his arms, supporting her body.

"You are drunk," he added.

Lanny just giggled, anchoring her arms around his neck.

"My head is spinning. Carry me..." Lanny requested in her drunken tone.

She took advantage of this opportunity to tease Enzo. This was also her way of venting out her frustration after being rejected by Enzo.

Enzo didn’t complain. He obediently carried her as they took the lift.

Lanny sunk further into his body, sniffing his scent.

"You smell so good, Enzo," she murmured.

Enzo gulped hard when he felt her hot breath fanning his neck. Her face was so close to him.

He tried his best to control himself and behave while carrying her in his arms. However, part of him was thinking whether Lanny slept with another man or not.

"You came home late," Enzo mumbled.

Lanny let out another giggle. "Of course. I had fun."

Enzo’s face contorted when he heard that.

"Having fun with another guy?" Those words came out of his mouth naturally.

"Yes. I did!" Lanny didn’t deny it.

But the truth was she just drank together with her brother, Vladimir. She told him about Dmitri visiting Country Z. And Miguel Ivankov ordered her to take care of that guy.

’Before I marry the guy from the De Luca Family, I should enjoy myself first.’ Lanny thought to herself, staring at Enzo’s gorgeous face.

She hadn’t met Dmitri in person yet so she didn’t know what kind of man he was. But she was certain that he was also a dangerous man like her father, Miguel Ivankov.

It didn’t take long before Enzo and Lanny reached her unit. As they entered the house, Enzo gently put her down.

"Can you walk now?" Enzo asked her.

But Lanny shook her head.

"Bring me to my room," she demanded.

Enzo could only sigh helplessly. "Alright."

He carried her once again, bringing her to her bedroom.

The moment he let go of her, Lanny swiftly pulled Enzo, making him fall on top of her. He was caught off guard by her sudden action.

Before he could react, Lanny quickly crashed her mouth against his lips.

Enzo’s eyes widened and his body stiffened when he felt her lips fiercely kissing him.

She didn’t give him a chance to avoid her hungry lips as she wrapped her arms around his neck tightly, one hand grabbing the back of his head to pull him closer.

’No. I have to stop her,’ Enzo thought to himself.

However, his body was not cooperating with his mind. He was being drowned by Lanny’s passionate kiss.

The pleasant sensation was so powerful, consumed by the intensity of her kiss. As her lips pressed against his, they parted slightly, allowing her tongue to venture into his mouth, a daring invitation that sent shivers down his spine.

With boldness and burning desire, she sought out his tongue, her own exploring every corner and every contour of his mouth.

For a moment, Enzo hesitated, his senses overwhelmed by the rush of conflicting emotions coursing through him.

’This is wrong. How can I face Alice after this? I would only feel guilty.’

But Lanny’s persistence erased his remaining hesitation. Yielding to his passionate kiss, he responded eagerly, his own tongue meeting hers in a dance of desire and longing.

Before he knew it, Lanny changed their position, her strength evident as she effortlessly pinned him down onto the bed.

Not breaking the kiss, her fingers began to remove Enzo’s shirt by tearing it off. The sound of tearing cloth mingled with the sound of their wet kisses.

When she succeeded, his sturdy chest was exposed to her. Her palm began caressing his strong abs.

It did not take long before her hand slid down, touching the lower part of his body. Just when she was about to grab his private part, Enzo stopped her, breaking the kiss.

"Lanny, we can’t do this! I have a girlfriend..." Enzo’s loyalty to Alice brought him back to his senses.

Lanny felt like her whole body was splashed with cold water. She thought her seduction was working on him but he still managed to stop her.

Her mood had been ruined by Enzo’s second rejection. She lay on the bed, covering her eyes using her elbow.

"Fine. Leave my room now!" Lanny declared in her cold voice.

She was too embarrassed to face Enzo. He kept rejecting her twice in a row now.

Meanwhile, Enzo had no choice but to leave her room, feeling sorry for what happened. He shouldn’t have kissed her back.

’Damn it, Enzo! You are such a gentleman, remaining faithful to your woman. I’m the bad girl here, forcing you to commit a sin.’ Lanny tugged her hair tightly, covering her face using her pillow.

"Argh!" Lanny screamed again, ashamed of what she did.

"I don’t want to become like Sasha. I shouldn’t be like her. I should stop this craziness." She reminded herself.

*****

Moments later, in Enzo’s bedroom.

When Enzo left Lanny’s room, his heart was still pounding crazily against his chest. He slammed his eyes shut.

’What have I done? I almost got carried away by her kiss. Why is she doing this to me? Is it because she is drunk? Or is there something more into it?’

Enzo was confused about his feelings. He couldn’t understand why he was becoming more attached to her. He had to admit that he got irritated after knowing she had fun at the club together with another guy.

Those thoughts might be one of the reasons why he kissed her back.

The moment he returned to his bedroom, Enzo could no longer sleep. He kept thinking about Lanny and the intimate kiss they shared. She occupied his mind the whole morning.

"I wonder if I had a serious relationship with Lanny. Damn! I can’t remember anything. I want to know if Lanny and I were more than friends."

Enzo could feel something whenever he was with Lanny. However, his past with her had been buried in his memory that he had lost.

"I should confront her later. She is the only one who can tell me the truth." Enzo had made up his mind.

*****

It was already late morning when Enzo woke up. He took a quick bath to freshen up. He wondered if Lanny was now awake.

After putting some clothes on, Enzo swiftly left his room to find Lanny. He didn’t see her in the kitchen or the living room.

"Maybe, she is still asleep because of her drunkenness," Enzo assumed.

He headed to her room. ’I have to apologize to her for what happened between us.’

Knock! Knock!

"Lanny, it’s me. Enzo. Are you awake?" Enzo spoke in his loud voice to awaken Lanny.

"Give me a second," Lanny responded.

Soon, Enzo heard her footsteps coming in.

Click!

Lanny unlocked her door and opened it to see Enzo. She was still in her pajamas, rubbing her eyes as she greeted Enzo.

"Good morning, Enzo. What’s up?" Lanny smiled at him.

"Can we talk?" Enzo asked her.

Lanny blinked several times before nodding her head. "Sure. What do you wanna talk about?"

"Last night... I want to–"

Enzo’s words were cut off immediately when Lanny spoke up.

"I was drunk last night. I can’t remember what happened." Lanny lied.

"Did I do something crazy? If I did, please forget about it! Don’t remind me." She feigned ignorance.

Enzo glanced at her in puzzlement. He couldn’t believe that Lanny had forgotten about what happened between them at dawn.

"Are you sure? You can’t remember anything." Enzo asked again.

Lanny just bobbed her head in response. To avoid being awkward to each other, she decided to pretend that she didn’t remember anything.

"Yes. I don’t remember. You know I tend to do crazy things when I’m drunk. So please forgive me for acting crazily. Just forget about it. Please!" Lanny put her palms together, rubbing them as she pleaded.

As a result, Enzo’s intention to confront her about their true relationship from the past was prevented by her plea.
