The last thing she remembered was falling asleep with Jamie’s arms wrapped tightly around her on the sofa but when her eyes opened and she found herself in her bedroom, all alone, her heart dropped. She’d thought he would stay for the night but it was obvious he had more important things to do and had left as soon as she fell asleep.

She didn’t know what she was thinking, hoping he’d still be there with his arms wrapped around her in a warm cuddle. The thoughts made her heart skip, leaving an ache in her chest but she ignored it as she got out of bed to start her day.

It's time for Cookie and Jamie to move forward in their relationship they both love each other and there's no need to hold back how they feel. I'm glad she is ready to put Dave in prison where he belongs.

    It’s been two weeks since Sylvia's accident. Immediately Williams divulged the news of the accident, together with Ryan, they drove down to the scene, just about ten minutes out of state to see she’d been escaping from her calamities. She was rushed to the hospital for immediate treatment and she underwent surgery. At the accident scene, her luggage was found coupled with the original documents she’d gotten Clifford to sign that she was meant to pass on to Jamie to finally start off her takeover plan.After the surgery, her legs were badly injured so she had to rely on a wheelchair and the doctor said she may be paralyzed forever. Due to this, the family had pity on her and didn’t involve the police but they made sure to destroy whatever documents she had in her possession. They fired her from the company too and she was left in a nursing home as she couldn’t care for herself and Williams wasn’t yet over the shock of the terrible secrets she’s been hiding. He couldn't be tasked with

  • Pleasing the Billionaire    Seventy-four: The unforeseen end

    According to Jamie’s plan, they all assembled at Ryan’s family home in New York the next day, to reveal Sylvia’s decades-old secret. Before then, he called Sylvia the previous night after his meeting with Ryan, to set up a meeting with her in Texas, just to keep her away from New York during the meeting, as a means of evading her. During his call, he assured her he was ready to take on the task and he made her believe he was still annoyed at how Ryan had treated him in the past. It was believable enough to Sylvia and she praised him for finally manning up to do the right thing.Disregarding that they were still on call, she went about spewing her hate for the Davidson’s and how she’d gotten Clifford to sign the documents that would give up his properties and business empire to Jamie, all in the name of partnering with him. She even shared a soft copy of the document to him after the call and asked him to sign it through electronic means but Jamie refused. He stated that they’d need a

    The next day, as planned, Ryan flew to Texas to meet with Jamie in a private location. Jamie had tried retelling Sylvia’s evil plans to him on the phone but he couldn’t get himself to convince the man that Sylvia isn't who they all thought she was. Ryan wanted to confirm for himself, so they set up the meeting.It was held in one of the branches of Ryan’s companies in Texas, to avoid suspicions and to make it look like a business meeting if the news ever gets out. Jamie didn’t put it past Sylvia to secretly keep a watch on him just to monitor his next moves.As soon as they settled into the conference room, he handed the copy of the document that Sylvia had given to him to Ryan as a piece of evidence.“There’s the document your family has been searching for, for the past two years,” he stated, settling into his seat and allowing Ryan to flip through the pages as the realization began to dawn on him. A frown marred his face, the more he read through the pages of the contract.“You’re t

    That night, Jamie sat in his home office, still pondering on everything Sylvia had confided in him. He couldn’t believe she was the same woman that had committed such evil acts. The same woman that came off as a saint to guilt trip him into forgiving her and accepting her as his biological mother. But it turned out she only needed him to finalize her revenge plans.It hurt him deeply to realize the truth that Sylvia was only using him. She only came back because she needed him as the final piece to achieve her aim. These thoughts swarmed his head as he sat in the plush leather seat, staring at the document she’d handed to him. He didn’t know what was inside except it contained ten percent of the Davidson's assets that she’d somehow acquired, as she’d informed him earlier that day.Slowly, he pulled it closer and flipped it open to see it was a draft business contract that had been signed. Slowly, his gaze traveled through the page as he read the document. It stated that Benjamin David
