THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS HARD CHOICES
Ronnie Hartman stared blankly at the computer screen before him. The name of the file read: Confidential: Emily Peterson.Just seeing that name on the screen made his blood run cold. He was sitting inside his bedroom in his moderate apartment. There was a guestroom and a sitting room just one hallway away. It was matchday but he'd exited the sitting room just a few minutes ago to have some time to himself to think, but more than that, he wanted to work.He reminisced on what had happened a few days ago at work when his boss had called him into his office and sent him on an errand that had taken him by utter surprise, not merely because of the type of work he wanted him to do, but because of who it involved.Emily Peterson, the one name that had haunted his dreams for the past two nights was the person he was asked to keep an eye on, although he would have preferred the word 'investigate.' That was what this was. An illegal investigation to look for something that did not exist.Perha
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS DESPERATE TIMES
The night dragged unbelievably slowly until dawn settled on the Earth. Emily Peterson woke up with a throbbing headache. She sat up on the bed and leaned back on the bed rest. She glanced over and saw Edmund lying beside her, snoring softly. It took a moment for everything to come back to her. Edmund had been gone from his office for up to thirty minutes. When he'd returned, he was unusually calm and sullen. She'd been forced to ask what that was about and who Charlotte was but Edmund had said nothing, at least nothing that made sense to her. Only that she was an aggrieved ex who was facing some financial trouble and needed a place to crash in for a while. Of course, it did not make sense to Emily but judging from the redness of Edmund's eyes, she could tell that this was probably not the best time to push the discussion. Edmund disappeared for the rest of the day. He gave her his office to work in and informed the cook to serve her lunch and dinner. He reappeared at about 9 pm, and
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS ALLIED
He gritted his teeth to stop himself from cursing under his breath. He'd done that already for the umpteenth time. His head was about to explode. How could she lie to him?His mind steered away to the many explanations of what might be going on, but none made sense. Emily had never cheated on him, not even once. So, what was the motive this time? Who was the man that was trying to steal her away from him?The more he thought about it, the more it made him mad. He pictured him placing her on the wall and nestling in with her like he usually did, placing his filthy hands all over her creamy skin and making love to her.Amidst all his attempts to stop himself from cursing under his breath, Jason cursed again in frustration. He yearned to break something, anything, to let out all the anger he felt. But looking around him, there was no material thing that could take the full weight of his wrath.He squeezed his eyes shut, blocking out the rear of the world and pictured Emily the way he'd a
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS SERVING TWO MASTERS
"There's no need to be uptight, Charlotte," Detective Randall Harrington said. He managed a smile. "We're on the same page here."Charlotte appeared to be thinking. On second thoughts, she said, "I'll have some tea.""Of course."He disappeared to the dining room across from the sitting room and returned a moment later with a glass of tea. He handed her the cup of sweet tea and tried not to stare at her full sensual lips as she sipped from the steaming glass.Beautiful was the wrong word for this petite brunette. She was sexy. Painfully sexy. She was creamy skin and velvet softness and quivering vulnerable femininity, every inch of a lady.The only incongruous note about her was her attitude. Beneath her four-hundred-dollar coat, this woman was cocky to the bone.She reminded him of his wife, Amelia. Like him, she came from stinking wealth and her advantage in life rubbed off hugely on her personality. It was her cockiness and his inability to stick with her alone that had caused his
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS HATCHING A NEW PLAN
Rayne Parker stood before the counter and gazed out the window. It was a beautiful spring morning at California Avenue with omens of summer everywhere. On each side of the road running from California Avenue down to Lincoln Drive, bright pink blossoms were already bursting forth over the whitewashed walls of the houses. Rayne had often been struck by those whitewashed walls. It seemed incongruous to have such humble exteriors surrounding such lavish mansions, each one stuffed full of every luxury money could buy.Rayne worked at one of such mansions. It was a shopping mall, albeit not an ordinary one. They sold things ranging from groceries to superficial things like cosmetics and every manner of luxury clothing.She'd started working here about a year before and there was only one regular set of customers that she was accustomed to. She recognized them when she saw them. They always had that same look of unbothered regret on their faces. They regretted what they did but they were n
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS NEW RULES
Edmund opened his diary, a padded red-cover book with his name written on it and wrote;"Dear diary,I have no idea what this feeling is but I do hope it's not love. It feels stupid to be so vulnerable because of a single human. It feels horrible to start being affectionate towards a mere mortal. Whenever I see someone so much as look at her, whether man or woman, I want to kill them. It's crazy what she does to me! If this is love, then, I just want somebody to shoot me in the head and end it all."He slammed the diary shut and buried his head in his palms, his mind wrapped in confusion. He was thinking of everything and nothing in particular. The mundane things of life. That was what he called them.Just this morning, he'd received a message from his mother. She was asking him how things were going along with 'Laura'. He'd told her that the relationship was moving smoothly and had hoped that it would end there. But of course, it didn't. She'd gone ahead to make him fix a dinner date
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS THE PERFECT PERFORMANCE
Edmund stared at Dre for a long time, or rather, he stared into space for a long time. Dre's genial hopeful face just happened to be in the way. A few minutes ago, he'd arrived at Sibley Memorial hospital where he'd learnt that Emily had been admitted a few minutes ago. The text message he'd received on his phone was supposedly typed by Dre who had now introduced herself as Emily's friend. There was something familiar about her heavily made-up face but he could not quite place his hand on it yet. All he knew, for now, was that Dre was nice and down to earth and willing to sacrifice anything for her friend and…. The doctor walked in. She wore a bleached white laboratory coat over the shirt and trousers that she had on. Edmund and Dre cleared the way for her to pass through. She went straight to Emily and placed the stethoscope on her body. Her face bore a grim look. "Will she be alright?" Dre asked, her voice filled with despair. Dr. Mia Sanders shook her head. A small, hopeful s
THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET MISTRESS A CRY FOR HELP
Charlotte Baker prepared a smile on her face as she raced towards the door. She'd gotten the distress call from her sister over an hour ago and due to the severity of the issue, she'd insisted that she came over to the house so they could talk. Edmund wasn't home after all. She held the door opened and wrapped a frosty grin on her face. The woman that stood before her was a young lady in her early twenties. She was an attractive lady with a slender figure, fine bone structure and sparkling emerald eyes. Charlotte wondered how many heads she must have turned on her way here. Not that it was anything new anyway. Lucy had always had that charm since when they were little girls and apparently, she'd only gotten more attractive when she transformed into an adult. In the early years of her parent's marriage, it had just been her and Lucy. Naturally, everyone believed that all of her father's possessions would be passed on to her as his first child when he died and for well over fifteen y
