Billionaires with Benefits

Chapter 12: 12. The Punishment

Meanwhile, Paula was feeling anxious. When she arrived at Martin’s room, the man was alone. Even after half an hour had passed, nobody was coming to the room. She thought William would come later-but looked like he wouldn’t.

The woman had finished explaining the financial statements to Martin. However, there was no sign that William or Maya would appear. Paula bit her lower lip out of worry.

To save her time, Paula took the initiative to end the meeting because it was already late. “Since it’s finished, I don’t think there’s anything else I need to say. I’ll excuse myself because it looks like ... William won’t be able to come. I wanted to call him but unfortunately, I left my phone in the office.”

“Oh, don’t be in such a hurry. Our business isn’t done yet.” Martin chuckled, turning his gaze to Paula. His darkening eyes roamed Paula’s body in a lewd way.

“Our business is done, sir. And I have to go home right away because it’s already late,” Paula replied sternly, brushing the bad thoughts that started to attack her mind.

“Paula, our night has just begun,” Mr. Martin whispered as he slowly unbuttoned his shirt.

“Sir, this is just information. I’m not William’s secretary, I’m his wife,” Paula warned him. She hoped that whatever Martin was thinking right now wasn’t something that would make him reckless enough to abuse his client’s wife.

.....

Martin gasped. He undid the third button and then stopped. “So, do you mean-”

“I’m married to him,” Paula replied firmly, showing her left hand. “Can’t you see my ring?”

Martin then laughed sarcastically. “Too bad. But, he said that I can have you tonight. I’ve got his consent to touch you.”

Paula’s heart sank. There’s no way William could sell her to him. However, Martin looked confident in his words.

“Don’t give me that look! Things like this are common in business matters. Providing the best service for clients is the fastest way to get them to sign the agreement. Therefore, you should be able to compromise for the sake of your husband’s company.”

Martin approached the scared gorgeous woman in front of him. He started to touch her, slowly but surely.

William was still trying to reach Paula. However, the phone still hasn’t been picked up. He then tried to go to reception and asked for Martin’s room number. Of course, it’s something illegal. The receptionist would not give the guest room number due to hotel policy. William couldn’t force the receptionist girl. It was getting worse since he had no evidence that Martin would abuse Paula. It was just his assumption. He could be sued for making a false accusation if he called the police.

William then decided to return to the restaurant. It seemed that the most appropriate and safe way for him was to interrogate Maya. But, he didn’t need to do it since the woman was coming willingly.

“Mr. Montgomery! Wait!” Maya called him, gasping almost breathlessly. Panting, she bent down to hold her knees as she approached William. “Please, follow me, sir!”

Then, they immediately went to Martin’s room on the 10th floor. When they reached room number 1012, Maya stopped. The woman whispered, “This is his room. Promise me that you never tell him that I am the one who brings you here. Tell him that you know this room because of bribing the receptionist. I don’t want to be fired. This job is very important to me!” Maya pleaded hopefully. “Will you?”

“I will.”

Maya immediately left William who was now banging the door quite loudly. It would attract the attention of other guests, but he didn’t care.

Immediately, the door opened and Paula stomped out of the room. Her face was reddened out of anger. She slapped William’s cheek, leaving a painful red mark.

“Fuck you, William!” Paula cursed angrily, then hurried away from the room.

In the room, William saw Martin who was still neatly dressed. He then smiled at William and said casually, “Sorry, there seems to be a misunderstanding. I thought she was your secretary.”

Martin’s behavior was inappropriate. He angered William. “So what if she is my secretary? Do you have the right to do this to her? I will cancel this project no matter what!”

Unwilling to hear excuses, William left Mr. Martin and chased after Paula. He now didn’t care anymore about the bet and the consequences of losing it. He didn’t want Paula to misunderstand him.

Paula walked towards the parking lot. William finally caught up. “Paula! Wait!”

“What?” Paula exclaimed without turning her head. Her voice trembled.

“Are you okay?” William finally managed to grab Paula’s shoulder and turn Paula around so they could both stand face to face-no, face to chest. “Did he harass you? Did he touch you?”

“Why are you even worried? Didn’t you sell me to him?” Paula’s eyes were red, tears welled up. “That’s how you are, William? You don’t even appreciate my efforts to help you.”

Paula turned her puffy face away from William. She didn’t like to show her weakness in front of other people, even if it was William-her husband.

“Paula! This is all their ruse. I will never do that to you. It was my promise, no? As long as you are my wife, I will take care of you and fulfill my duties as a husband.”

William shook Paula’s shoulder to calm her. However, William didn’t want Paula to get the wrong idea. They were friends. He won’t let the good relationship they had built just fall apart because of misunderstanding.

Paula stopped sobbing. She tried to pull herself together. She should have trusted William. Hadn’t William almost given up on the bet? Why suddenly did he need to use a dirty trick to win the agreement? That didn’t make any sense at all.

“Now, tell me, did he touch you?” William’s green eyes pierced at her. He looked sincerely worried. It moved Paula’s heart.

Paula shook her head. “He was about to touch me, but I said that you have an STD.”

William was stunned. His eyes popped out. “What did you tell him?”

Paula burst out laughing. William cursed angrily-but, in relief. Luckily Paula was smart. Who would risk the health of their sexual organ? No man would do that.

“I will punish you for that!”

Before long, William claimed his wife’s lips. They were both carried away. So affectionate like a real couple. It was so hot. Kissing was an understatement. They were eating each other’s faces.

Neither of them thought that someone was in the parking lot, watching them doing the lovey-dovey things. A man in a fancy suit who had just attended his little sister’s engagement party.

“Wow, look! There’s free live porn!” the man whispered so that the young woman next to him wouldn’t hear. “I hope I don’t get a boner.”

Too bad, the young woman heard what he said and reflexively turned her head in the same direction as the man. Then, her eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of two people immersed in a passionate entanglement. They didn’t even care about their surroundings.

Paula and William then got into the car and did things they shouldn’t have done in a public place-hot and passionate sex.

“Lea, are you okay?” the man asked in confusion. “You look so pale.”

Although a little bit vague, Lea knew for sure who the man was. Her tears fell slowly, knowing the truth. The man she loved with all her heart had lied straight to her face.
