“Are you okay?” Perry asked backstage.She shook her nerves away, “An audience with our beloved guest of honor, what could be better? Do you think he recognized me?” She was still in denial.Perry shrugged, “Why else would he request an audience with you at his table?”She shot him a look, “My program? Maybe he’s interested in that?”“Well … yeah … but you spent a whole day with him … and slept with him twice in one night … they say he has photographic memory … that’s how he managed to thrive with his father’s legacy.”Jamie slapped his stomach with the back of her hand, “You said he probably wouldn’t recognize me before my presentation?” She protested.“I had to say something … you looked like you were about to faint or something.”She didn’t feel much better than before, knowing she was going to be sitting across from him later that night. Now that she knew who he was, it made her even more nervous. Sometimes the things we hear about someone formed an image in our heads that determi

She tilted her head back and swallowed the rest of the liquor in her glass. She grimaced at the burning sensation in her throat and the airway through her nose. She gestured to the bartender to pour some more. “Wow … that intense, huh?” Perry commented, sitting next to her at the bar.They’d only been there less than 15 minutes and she was starting the night strong.“I don’t know what he’s playing at, if I said ‘no’ to his offer, all of the others would have withdrawn their donation … I didn’t know what else to do.”“You did the right thing … I mean, this is what you’ve been working for, it just so happened the opportunity came from someone you planned to ditch after a one-night stand,” Perry glanced at her while sipping his Martini. He raised an eyebrow, “It’s a little complicated, but it’s worth your while, don’t you think?”She took a deep frustrated breath, “I guess … if you see it that way … do you think he’ll ever bring it up? I wouldn’t know what to say … he obviously knew I l

The Q was located in the business district of Lancaster, right in the middle of the city center. It towered up to the 77th floor, the highest building in the city and the largest hotel in the country. It used to be known as The Quotidian where most businessmen and women owned a suite there and used them as a second home so it was easier to commute around the area in their busy daily life and work.It was solely owned by the Love Dynasty, along with dozens of other luxurious hotels in the world. There’s no telling what businesses were owned by the dynasty because they owned either a small portion, half, or the entire share of the businesses all over Lancaster. And by dynasty, it was under one prominent name, Richard Gabriel Love.RGL logo was plastered on the helipad on the 77th floor of the building, it was also plated in gold on the sign leading up to the 76th floor. It was a long way up, she had to get clearance to use the elevator, not to mention three security check stops along th

The suspense was killing her. She thought the meeting was going to be over soon without having to revisit that night. But who was she kidding, it was the very reason why she was sitting in that oversized luxurious office in the first place.“Okay … let’s just cut to the chase … let’s just get rid of the elephant in the room once and for all,” she got it out of her chest.Gabriel sat back on his chair, and crossed his leg over to the other, he seemed relaxed. “Do you know there are 5 women in Lancaster named Margot Simmins?”A question she didn’t need to answer.“Well … I do … because I’ve checked each and every one of them and none of them were you.” He took a deep breath, “That wasn’t very nice of you to lie to me like that.”“To be fair … you knew it was just a one-time thing, we were not supposed to meet again after that,” she was defensive.“And yet … here we are … and no … I didn’t know it was supposed to be a one-time thing, you seduced me into having sex with you in that God aw

“What the hell was that?” Jamie told Perry about her awkward meeting. “I mean … what the hell? Was it harassment? Was he mocking me? He was upset that I lied about my name and accused me of luring him into some kind of a sex trap … and then he had the audacity to offer me ‘assistance’ for … and he refers to it as a biological urge cycle in a mating season! Who does that??” she paced up and down the living room.Perry held his amusement after listening to the whole story. “He’s a single 44-year-old billionaire, good looking … very … I might add … and single … have I mentioned that already? Even if he’s not a billionaire it would be weird for someone like him to be single … I’m sure his strangeness had a lot to do with that,” her judgemental hat was talking.“I mean … Can you believe that a guy like that had never had a ‘no-strings-attached’ sexual intercourse? Can you? I can’t … he knew his way around the bed, I can assure you that … he probably had sex slaves tied up somewhere in his
Rich Love Twelve
Jamie Knox hated working in an office, she tried it once when she graduated from the University and it almost gave her a mental breakdown. She came home crying every day after a 9 to 5 job as a Public Relation Officer at her father’s company and was laughed at by her family because they thought she was being a princess.She grew up privileged even though she didn’t ask for it, and she was always told to be grateful because of how easy her life was. She was never ungrateful, it’s just not the life she preferred and her family didn’t know the difference.She held onto the job for two months before she quit cold turkey on it. She took up online courses to develop her writing skills and started taking freelance jobs to do small campaigns and PR work for small businesses.In a couple of years, she managed to compile quite a variable portfolio and her dad offered her another chance to do PR work for his companies. She gave it another try. That was when she learned the dark side of the busin

One week after the meeting, Jamie was halfway finished preparing everything she needed before leaving for Bhorma for a year. She finished all her pending work in the city and informed all her ongoing clients that she will be residing on the island of Bhorma.Work wasn’t going to be an issue because she’d been doing most of it long distance or from home. She handed over pending events to Perry to handle all the operational details on location.She had renewed her passport for another 5 years because it was required before she started working. She organized her bank accounts to automatically debited her account for all her monthly payments in Lancaster, and all other tedious details she didn’t really enjoy.“Ooh … do you think I’m doing the right thing? It already feels like a commitment and I’m starting to doubt if it’s even worth it?” she sighed.“Of course, it’s worth it, think of how many turtles you can save through this program and how much more you can do with the facilities he’s

Being in a car like that reminded her of the days when she was married to Eduard. There was a set of alcoholic beverages, complete with crystal glasses, if she pushed out the middle compartment, she was sure she would find an ice dispenser.The screen in front of her was the internal cinema experience, the speakers planted in the corners of the interior would be the surround sound if she decided to watch a movie or listen to music of her choice.It’s always nice to enjoy luxury, she just didn’t enjoy the things that came along with it. Especially the fake people, with fake love, fake smiles, and leeches that posed as friends. Somehow, she understood Gabriel’s strange behavior and lack of trust. He too must’ve gone through a lot worse than she ever did.“Jamie?” a deep soothing voice came from the speakers and pulled her out of her daydream.She had been in the car for almost 20 minutes. “Gabriel?” she looked around, not sure what she was looking for. “Yes … I’m sorry to interrupt … h
