Bad-Boy Billionaire

“David Gilbert is here tonight and he is talking to some people, trying to get investors,” Russell answered with seriousness in his old wrinkled face, the moment i heard what my old man said, I was on instant alert, i searched the room, spotting my enemy, he was the one who had made me the cut throat business man I had turned into.“It is far too late for him, by tomorrow morning his company will be mine, no matter what he tries tonight,” I said with a sneer, the sound of David's name caused anger coursing through my vein.As i watched David, a beautiful woman approached him, stepping up on her tip toes to kiss him on the cheek, david didn’t even bother to turn and acknowledge her, which she did not seem to notice, the man noticed nothing around him if it did not have dollar signs on it, not even his stunning daughter, my eyes narrowed to slits, I hadn’t seen Lilith for ten years and those years had been very good to her.Her dress was skin tight on top, dipping low in both the front

I planned on heading to the city and making something of myself so I could continue to give her all the things she was used to, i wanted to make sure she never went without anything, heck! I wanted to place her on a throne and spoil her rotten, i was ready to do or give her anything she wanted.That fateful day i had shown up at the church full of naïve teenager dreams and one bag when I heard approaching steps, I turned in anticipation, ready to see my Lilith, but my heart sunk at the sight of her father, the man approached with a sympathetic smile plastered on his face.“Finn, I’m sorry but Lilith asked me to come and speak with you,” David had stated, I didn’t understand why she would send her father to me after our arrangements and plans. “lilith said she could not face you but she did not want to leave here, i have some cash here to help you on your way, she said you planned to go to the city and I want to help you get there,” he said with that same smile on his face.I felt lik

The minute David had placed the corporation on the stock market; he had investors to be accountable too, and since David had been stealing from those investors for years, they were going to want answers, I smiled some more as I thought about David’s life continuing to go down the drain.I left all the staff at their jobs for now but had memos sent out notifying them they were going to have to defend their jobs, I normally left all of that to my staff but since this operation was personal to me, I would be conducting many of those interviews, myself.I had a couple of trusted associates coming with me and I was like a kid on Christmas morning, it was time to go to my new corporation and do some investigating, I had made the decision to keep the company as it was but there would be a lot of people losing their jobs and a lot of new hires, it would take months to get it all straightened out.I was getting ready to leave, when my father walked into the office. “Where are you off to, son?

Lilith Pov.I walked into the familiar building, having to fight back my tears. There were men outside, working on placing a new sign. It was more proof the company no longer belonged to my father. I had been trying to reach him for days, to ask him what had happened. He hadn’t even told me the company was in jeopardy of being taken over.He wasn’t answering his phone, or returning my calls. I had been to his place several times and was told he wasn’t there. I tried again that morning but wasn’t able to get past the gates and found a real estate sign on his front lawn.I was trying to understand what was going on and why my father wouldn’t speak to me, I knew the new owner of the company was scheduled to be there that day and I was determined to get some answers. I had worked so hard throughout the years and had some day hoped to own the company I cared so much about, but those dreams were now gone.I would’ve walked out the doors when the take-over had occurred but I didn’t only ha

LilithPov:I wanted to stand up and slap him across his smug face. I had never in my life been so angry. How could he look at me so coldly? How could he have turned into this cruel hearted man? I was so grateful I had never told him about my son, because I was sure he would’ve tried to acquire him the same way he acquired his businesses.“I do my job very well. I will expect to be treated like any other employee here. I also don’t want to speak with you anymore,” I said as I stood up to leave. I needed to find a bathroom quickly, where I could break down in private.Before I had taken more than a few steps he grabbed my arm and I was suddenly standing there, far too close to him. I cursed my traitorous body wanting to lean up against him. His smell was invading my senses, making the heat pool up in my core. No, no, no, I shouted at myself. I refused to let him affect me.“It would be hard to treat you like any other employee since you’re the only one here I’ve sunk deep inside while
