*Anna*

I have made a huge mistake.

At least, that’s how it seems. Grant ran out of the restaurant so quickly, there was no way I could keep up with him. I’ve tried calling him several times, but he won’t answer me.

He hates me.

All of this is going to backfire, and I’m going to end up losing the person who’s most important to me in the world. I sit in the restaurant for several minutes with my head between my hands, trying to decide what to do.

I hope I didn’t actually make the paparazzi situation worse by having Grant meet me here. I’ll be able to control my own gossip rag moving forward, but the others will have to fall in line. I can’t imagine what I’d do with more than one gossip magazine. As it is, I’ll have to figure out a way to make it a legitimate publication. I don’t want to continue to snoop around in people’s lives and embarrass them for no reason just because they are rich and famous.

Well… maybe the Young family, but they’re the only ones.

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   I'm Not Ignoring You--Much

    *Grant*“Grant?” My secretary sticks her head in the door a couple of hours after I’ve arrived in the office. I’ve been working away–well, when I’m not daydreaming about Anna’s sexy body. I lift my head. “Yes? What’s up?”Her face relaxes slightly into a smile. “Mrs. Young is hoping you’ll come down to see her soon. She did ask for you to come to her office earlier this morning, you’ll recall.”“That’s right.” It had honestly slipped my mind. I’d been so busy working on my accounts, I forgot that she even wanted to see me. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, though. Ordinarily, I would’ve rushed right down to her office to kiss her ass, but today, I’m not feeling it. Realizing who my wife is has opened a lot of doors I never knew would be available to me, so I’m no longer completely dependent on my grandmother’s mercy.Nevertheless, I see no reason to poke the bear. I set the file I’m working on aside and pull myself out of my chair, stretching as I do so. “Thank you,” I tell my secr

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   Everything Will Work Out

    *Anna*I’m floating in the clouds. Waking up in my own home with my husband’s naked body draped around me, riding into work with him, and knowing that I’ll get to see him as soon as the workday is over has me grinning from ear to ear. I have my driver take me to the door inside of the parking garage, just in case there are still some gossip rag reports hanging around, but I don’t see any, and that’s all the more reason to be happy.Poppy smiles at me from behind her desk as I walk toward my office. “Good morning, ma’am,” she says, popping up and handing me a cup of coffee. “How are you today?” She winks at me, and at first I wonder how she knows I’m in a good mood, but then I remember Grant called her yesterday trying to figure out where I was.“Couldn’t be better,” I tell her. “Thanks for the coffee.”“Cream and two sugars, just like you like it. Let me know when you’re ready for your messages.” She smooths her skirt down and reclaims her chair.I’m sure she wants to talk to me in t

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   It's Going to Be a Good Day

    *Grant*The mattress beneath me is so unbelievably comfortable, I can’t imagine ever sleeping on another bed in my whole life. What makes it even better is that my beautiful wife is curled up against me, her naked body draped across mine.She’s been sound asleep ever since we finished making love for the third time tonight. I can’t sleep, though. I’m too busy thinking about everything that’s happened today. It’s hard to accept even now, after I’ve had hours to think about it. This house is amazing. I can’t believe that my wife owns it. She doesn’t even know how many businesses she owns. We talked about it earlier, when we took a break between rounds to eat something her amazing chef, Samantha, brought up to us. I understand now why Anna wasn’t worried about anyone spying on us when we were in the pool. These people are highly loyal to her and respectful. They are the best of the best, and they get paid very well, unlike the poor maids at our family home. I sent a text to my mother e

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   In the Grotto

    *Anna*Grant’s mouth is warm on mine. The space between our bodies seems far too distant, so I move to join him on his lounge chair. His hands settle on my hips, and I straddle him. Immediately, I feel him harden beneath me and know that he is thinking the same thing that I am.And then I remember the grotto.I’m still wearing my work clothes, a pantsuit that seems far too complicated at the moment. I kick off my shoes and then begin to unbutton my shirt. Grant pulls away from me. “What are you doing, baby?” he murmurs.“What do you think?” I ask him, smiling mischievously at him.“But… we’re in the back yard, and there are people inside, aren’t there? I mean… don’t you have maids and the like?”“I do,” I tell him, working my arms out of my sleeves and tossing my shirt aside.“What if they’re watching us?” he asks, his eyebrows arched.I shake my head. “They won’t. Why would they want to? Besides, I think there will be enough privacy over there in the grotto.” I incline my head to my

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   This Is Your House?

    *Grant*I can’t believe what I’m looking at as I step outside onto a massive patio next to the biggest private pool I’ve ever seen. The house itself is huge and so very beautiful. Following the maid through the living room had left my head spinning as I tried to look at everything, but it was impossible. Now, I’m staring at my wife’s wide eyes as she asks me why I’m here. “I needed to talk to you,” I admit, crossing over to where she’s sitting near an enormous grotto with a waterfall. “I’m sorry for the intrusion.”“It’s no intrusion,” she replies, gesturing for me to sit next to her on what appears to be the most comfortable lounge chair ever made. “I’m just surprised. How did you know where to find me?”“I called Poppy,” I admit, sinking down next to her. I can’t help but let out a sigh. It’s so relaxing already, and we haven’t even solved our problems yet.“Poppy?” she repeats. “How did you know to call her?”“I called your office to see if you were in, and she said no, she though

  • Secret Billionaire CEO Daughter-in-Law   Home Sweet Home?

    *Anna*Pulling in through the gates at Savage Gardens instantly makes me feel better, though nothing can completely alleviate the pain from the hole in my heart left by Grant’s harsh words, abrupt exit, and refusal to answer my phone calls. Still, when I step out of the car in front of my home, I smell the flowers from the garden it's named for wafting on the breeze, close my eyes, and remember how to breathe.“Welcome home, Ms. Savage,” a familiar voice says. I open my eyes to see the chef, Samantha, as well as several other people I met on my first visit, standing on the front porch.“Thank you.” I walk over to greet them. It might not be customary to hug one’s staff, but I’ve never been traditional. “How did you know I was coming?” I ask.“Poppy called,” Bridgette, the head maid, replies with a smile. “We are so glad you’re here.”“I’m happy to be here.” I mean it. I feel better already, even if the husband I love hates me and thinks I’m a total fraud.I follow them inside. I’ll ne
