"Everything would be alright, I'm here,you need not worry," he assured her and she gave him a smile which caused his heart to skip a bit.

"I know I can't count on you,not knowing when this happened but I know you would always have my back," she said and her words earned a smile from him.

He felt that her words were much more better than signing contracts worth billions of dollars. It was worth it for him to push all his work or else,he might not have heard these words.

"By the way,are you done with your work? I hope it wasn't because of me you flew all the way here?" She asked already feeling guilty. He could sense that she was feeling guilty,so to put her heart at ease,he said,

Yes, she didn't quite trust him and it wasn't her fault, she just didn't expect that he would be aware of it.

    "If so, then who was the person she spent the night with? I think I have to make some investigation," he thought before falling onto his bed.He was clearly not bothered about the threat the man made. If he wanted, he should inform his dad, the company was not under his name anyways.He wouldn't allow anyone to ruin the hard work he had spent so much time and effort to create.Brooks' Mansion>When the two stepped into tbe house, they were greeted by a pair of glittering eyes and they looked behind their backs to see if they were the ones being stared at."We are looking at you, then why are you looking behinds you?" Grandpa Brooks complained and they hummed in sync."You are meant to be asleep, it's way past the time you are meant to sleep," Layla said as she looked at her wristwatch completely befuddled with the way the elders were acting."We have been waiting for you, we have something to discuss with you," grandp

  • One Night Stand With The Billionaire    Did you have fun?

    He just called her his fiance and he did so naturally, this caused her heart to become fuzzy and warm."Thanks for picking me up," she said and gave him a kiss on his cheeks."You are welcome," he said without turning to look at her. He was still shocked that she kissed him, so it was normal he reacted that way."Did you have fun?" He asked when he couldn't tolerate the silence anymore."Yes I did and I also found out something interesting," she replied as she stared at him with an hint of mischief in her eyes."And what's that?" He asked as he pulled out of the driveway. Seeing the look in her eyes, he knew what she was about to tell him was something worthwhile and might cause him to be surprised."I met with Michael today," she did not even get to complete her statement when he snapped his head towards her as he asked her series of questions,"You met with him, what did you both discuss, do you still like him?" His palms were clenched around the wheel as he had a very nervous look

    "What was he spitting from that thing he calls a mouth?" This was the thought that was in the mind of the girls as they shared confused glances."What do you mean by what you just said?" Fiona, the hot-tempered one flared up immediately."I was not speaking with you, so I would be happy if you stayed away," his attitude towards Fiona was bad and this caused Layla to frown."Who are you to speak to my friend that way? The last time I checked, we don't have any sort of relationship with each other," her voice sounding colder than she intended."Layla, I understand that there are several misunderstandings between the both of them but I'm willing to change for you, I was muddleheaded for a while, please forgive me," he said with a sincere look.But Layla was not going to fall for it. She had seen him with such an expression and she had fallen for it but now today. She wasn't going to be drawn in by his insincere look."Sorry to say

  • One Night Stand With The Billionaire    What do you want?

    "You have found out about my infidelity, I'm not good enough for you anymore," Michael said calmly. He didn't want a crowd to surround the both of them. He was still thinking of his reputation in a situation like this."You don't want me anymore, that's why you are saying this, I don't care if you cheated on me, I just want you for myself, is that too much to ask?" Ella questioned with teary eyes.It would be a lie to say she wasn't hurt. She might want to get rid of him by wanting Miles, but she couldn't let him go just like that."Why are you still bent on staying with me, do you think I'm not aware of you wanting Miles Brooks for yourself?" Michael blurted out feeling pissed off."Did I hear just hear correctly, they want to break up?"
