He threw himself on the tall chair across from her, she could smell a hint of his perfume.“Well … Jamie … as we discussed earlier, there are some papers I need you to sign,” he took out a folder from his drawer and pushed it toward her. “Since you will be working in my close circle, there will be a lot of information I need to keep to yourself in regards to my company, its operation, and of course my private information.”She took the folder and opened it, “By private information, are there any specifics?”He sighed, “Let’s just say … you are not allowed to talk about me, my company, and how it operates … even with Perry.”She skimmed through the agreement, “Hmm … Perry … so you have him checked too? What else do you know about me and Perry?”“Everything there is to know,” he answered simply with a faint smile. “I always check the backgrounds of everyone I will be working with, including the people they are closely associated with, no offense … information is a currency Jamie, that’s

Get to know each other. What the hell did he mean by that? He practically had her whole life history printed out on paper and read them all overnight. He already knew more than she did, he knew about Eduard. What else could he possibly want to know more about? And what for?And that offer of fulfilling sexual needs? What the hell is wrong with that guy? Is it some kind of strategy to get her to bed without making it look like harassment? Not that she was even thinking about sleeping with him again at that point. As handsome as he was, Gabriel Love was as weird as it gets.Maybe all that money and power had gotten into his head for too long. She knew how controlling billionaires can get, she was raised by one, and married one too. And now she’s dealing with another one who was going to invest in her good cause. Her stomach clenched as she processed the thought of letting another billionaire control her life once more.“Fuck!” she muttered to herself. After all her roller coaster of run

Eduard Payne loved marbles, his whole mansion was made of it. White pillars propped up the entire structure, and the painted ceiling gave the place an ancient greek nuance. He also liked gold, all of the door handles were plated in gold. Not Gabriel’s taste, he was more of a wood kind of person.Gabriel sat in Eduard’s private office, he insisted on holding the meeting at Eduard’s home so he was willing to wait for him to get home. It didn’t take long until he arrived. To be asked for a one-on-one meeting with Gabriel Love was a rare occasion one would miss.“Gabriel? What brings you out of your cave?” Eduard jokes.They shook hands, Eduard offered him a drink, and closed the door.“Thank you for meeting me on such short notice, I hope I wasn’t dragging you out from an important affair,” he was being polite.“Oh not at all … I was at The Q actually, didn’t expect you to choose my home for a meeting … what can I help you with?”They’re not friends, nor they knew each other on a persona

It was the same routine as the first time. The same car, the same driver, and the same instructions were repeated to her before they left. She sat in the quiet interior of the dark car and wondered if Gabriel was watching her through the lens.They were 15 minutes on the road and there was no Gabriel. She was curious, “Gabriel?” she called. No answer. She hesitated. Maybe it was a one-time thing because it was her first time in the car when he called her. So she didn’t call again.Just when she got comfortable, “Yes, Jamie?” his deep voice greeted her.She felt a strange delight come over her, “Gabriel … you’re there?”“I’m here … I’m sorry I couldn’t come and pick you up today either, I just got back from a meeting.”“That’s okay … I was just … it felt awfully quiet in here.”“I know,” he said.Now that he was there, she lost thoughts of what she wanted to say to him. “Do you always do this to your future employees? Pick them up in a soundproof car, limit their visions and talk to th

“Are those your parents?” she pointed to the painting of a lovely couple in their forties posed in their best clothes. Both were very good-looking, but Gabriel seemed to take upon his mother’s light brown eyes and her immaculate beauty.Harold glanced at her and then at Gabriel, he had never met anyone who dared to ask a personal question to Gabriel. He nodded at Harold to dismiss him.“Yes, those are my parents … they died not long after this portrait was made.”Harold lingered in the room, he was protective of his master who never spoke of his personal life with any of his guests.“That’ll be all, H., thank you,” Gabriel said.It was a sign for him to go, Gabriel can handle this.“What happened?” Jamie asked.“We were on a small aircraft going to a remote island my father just bought … we have done it hundreds of times before, my parents … they travel a lot in small aircraft because they like exploring remote areas … but that day … the plane crashed when it was about to take off.”T

He was too clever, she thought. He always managed to lure her to the direction he wanted her to go and put her in a position where she couldn’t get out of. He had succeeded in getting her to sign all those agreements and now she was legally bound to oblige to the contract. It was like making a pact with the devil.She found herself in a spot where she will have to go through a series of health tests as part of her work agreement with his company and in the tests she had to be tested for a kidney match with the devil himself. Which was not against the law, but she can’t tell anyone about it.What if her kidney is a match? What then? Is he going to kill her? Make it look like an accident and get her kidney? No one is going to know about it. It would be a breach of contract if she backed out from the agreement.“Shit!” she rubbed her face with both hands, sitting in a cold hospital bed in a hospital gown. She told Perry it was just a regular check-up, a standard requirement to be part of

“Are you ready?” Gerrick interrupted her thoughts.She nodded, picked up her bag, and walked toward the private jet that was parked near the runway.“Gabriel’s inside, I won’t be coming with you today … I’ll fly over there when everything is done over here,” he added.Gerrick had been Gabriel’s most trusted lawyer for 15 years. He was the one who was taking care of all his private dealings including Jamie’s divorce.“Okay … I’ll see you then,” she said and climbed the stairs up to board the plane.He waved at her from the bottom and got into a car right after.Gabriel was sitting in his chair, reading a book. She hadn’t said anything to him about the pregnancy, she didn’t know how to. She was starting to have second thoughts again. Maybe she didn’t have to tell him after all, maybe she’ll just raise the baby with Perry and tell the world she was surrogating for her gay friend. That would save a lot of drama.“Are you okay?” his deep voice seeped into her mind, he wasn’t even looking a

“I like the way they did the incubators and the shades … and it’s quite vast too, we can hatch a lot of batches in one go,” she commented on the preservation site at dinner.“Good … I’m glad you like it … I’ll take a look at it in the morning. Peter had been updating me with the hotel’s revenue since we arrived, I haven’t got around the beach yet.”He was eating his dinner and they were speaking casually, he seemed relaxed and not in any way intimidating. She was so distracted by his light brown eyes as the dim light of the hotel reflected elegantly upon his beautiful face.“This is a very nice hotel, I noticed the details in the interior are similar to your office and your home,” she kept them talking to hide her nervousness around him.“I use the same contractor and designers as much as I can, they know my taste … how do you like your room?”“It’s fabulous … I love it, I can see myself staying here for a year,” she chuckled, it was pretty extravagant even for her taste.Gabriel smil
