Marcus stood in his front of his desk dropping folders for him to sign. This is becoming a distraction. Royce schooled his face back to neutral which was already late. Marcus caught it. He cleared his throat "Yes?""The gala preparation is underway. I couldn't get a hold of your brother." That made Royce deflate inside. He wouldn"t show Marcus how much that affects him.

Am I becoming

  • Married To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER NINE: HE WAS BEAUTIFUL

    They hadn’t spoken for days after what happened in the hallway. Royce was always busy in his office and penthouse more than usual which Anne concluded as an avoidance tactic making it hard for both of them to see each other. The only time they saw each other was when they had to go to work or come back home. Whenever she had questions in the office, she was always redirected to Marcus. Not once have they said anything to each other. The silence around the house was as big as an elephant. Maybe all this could stop if Royce would apologize for his threat or she could admit she was actually eavesdropping. Today was their first public dinner as an official couple. She wanted to see who could break that ice. If it’s a silence game he wants, she could play very well.Beau Lavinge’s studio was on the fourth floor of a building off Charleston in the Strip which from the outside looked like a converted warehouse. The inside of Beau’s studio was very much like his character— sparkling like t

    Harlan Dale is what you describe as a cunning fox. Always manipulating a situation to suit his needs.He stood at the head of the large mahogany table with his glass of champagne twirling his drink. His posture mocking and his words theatrical like he was trying to draw his listeners to his orbit. “I have to say and I speak for the whole board.” He drawled “It is genuinely wonderful to see Royce like this. We’ve been waiting a long time.”A laugh scattered round the room. Glasses raised as everyone aimed polite smiles in her direction. Royce looked down at her, she looked back up and saw the moment an idea clicked in his head. Her eyes widened as Royce cupped her face, his hands leaving her waist. Her face looked so small on his hands, her breath was coming in fast and her heart was running a mile. She could feel butterflies fluttering in her stomach her legs getting weak as Royce got closer.

    “How was it?” Jade asked immediately she got home.Anne dropped her bag on the floor and sat beside Jade. Steve migrated immediately from the windowsill to Anne’s lap, which he did whenever she seemed like she needed the weight off something.“He wants to fund ANGEL” Anne sighed.“Okay” Jade said carefully. “That’s good news right?”“There’s a condition.”“I knew it!
