Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1064

Steve pushed open the car door and stepped out. He barely had time to close it before the BMW roared away, leaving him standing there, swallowing a lungful of exhaust. He squinted after the fading taillights, spinning his phone in his hand, a sly smile tugging at his lips.

“Some things never change,” he muttered.

He wasn’t sure why, but suddenly he felt a surge of curiosity about what it would take to pull off Sylvia’s mask. Turning away, he strolled into the lobby, heading for the elevator. While he walked, he pulled out his phone and sent Sylvia a message.

Steve froze, nearly tripping over his own feet. He stared at the little red icon in disbelief. She’d taken his money, then turned around and blocked him again?

“Sylvia!” he growled, biting down hard in frustration. A wave of helpless anger washed over him.

Fine. Whatever.

With a stormy look, Steve strode into the elevator.
