Chapter 41

Fafane

After spending two days at the house making it look and feel like a home, I was finally back at the office catching up on work when my assistant rushed through the door. “Miss, I have news about Henry.”

That caught my attention; I looked up from the document in front of me. “What news?”

“He went to the Bakers with a business proposal,” she explained quietly.

I paused. “The Bakers?”

She nodded.

I waved her out of the office and leaned back in my chair. If I remember cor

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    My unanswered questions

    Chapter 86 Fafane Before heading to the office, I stopped by Granny’s house. While I was at it, I brought along the bracelet Quashawn and I had gotten her on our way back from the beach house. I glanced at the little box sitting on the passenger seat and sighed. Granny was a difficult woman; I was almost certain she’d give me the runaround before finally settling on an answer, and I was prepared for it. At least, I hoped I was. I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts and calm myself down. Whatever she had to say, I needed to force myself to listen. I arrived at Granny’s house just before nine. Surprisingly, she was already awake and getting ready to have breakfast. I smiled as I walked into the dining room. “Looks like I came at the right time.” She immediately got up and came around the table to hug me. “Oh, dear! Sit, let’s eat.” Before I could say anything, she practically dragged me toward the chair beside hers and placed a cup in front of me. I reached for the coff

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    The Boss is back

    Chapter 85 Quashawn Great. Now I was back at this godforsaken place, wearing a damn suit that felt like it was going to suffocate me. I sat at the head of the conference table, waiting for the rest of the executives to arrive. Nicholas was the last one to walk in, and for some reason, the man looked a little too relaxed for my liking. I flipped through the folder in front of me, hoping to find something that would wipe that irritating smile off his face. Twenty minutes later, after listening to one report after another, I had to admit that everything appeared to be running smoothly. At least on paper. Once everyone finished presenting their monthly reports, I closed my folder. “That will be all for today. Meeting adjourned.” The executives began gathering their belongings. “Nicholas, stay behind. I need a word with you.” He paused before settling back into his chair. I waited until everyone else had left and the door was closed before turning my attention to him. “How was you

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    Missing the sea

    Chapter 84 Fafane Early the next morning, I sat behind my desk, already missing the beach house. God, I missed the sand beneath my bare feet and the calming sound of the waves. I missed waking up to five-star breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. I mean, I got that kind of treatment at home too, but there was something different about being spoiled in a luxurious beach house. What woman wouldn’t enjoy being treated like a queen by a man who was more than willing to take care of her? Unfortunately, my little vacation was over. Now, I was back in my office, sitting behind my desk with a stack of documents staring back at me, practically begging to be reviewed and signed. I wasn’t ready to deal with them just yet. Ignoring the paperwork, I called my assistant into the office. The moment she walked in, I asked, “Tell me, did anything happen while I was away?” She glanced down at the tablet in her hand and began giving me a rundown of everything that had happened while I was away. T

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    Waking up by the sea

    Chapter 83 Quashawn Waking up to the sound of the sea instead of an alarm clock had to be one of the best feelings in the world. Especially when you had a wife who enjoyed using you as her personal pillow. What more could a man ask for? I glanced down at Fafane, who was still sleeping peacefully against me. After making sure she was fast asleep, I carefully slipped out of bed and headed downstairs to prepare breakfast. Nothing fancy, just eggs, toast, a bowl of fresh fruit, and a mimosa for my wife. I was getting the coffee ready when my phone rang. I checked the screen; it was Norman. I answered. “Norman, is the company burning?” He took a second to respond. “Um, no, sir. But you wanted to know if Henry made a move.” His words made me freeze for a moment. The coffee maker's sound brought me back to reality. “What did that bastard do now?” “He went to Mrs. Baker’s company, and when he didn’t find her, he sent a message to her grandmother,” Norman explained. Ah. So Henry c

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    He makes me forget

    Chapter 82 Fafane I searched through my suitcase for a suitable dress for my husband’s fancy dinner. After going through almost everything I’d packed, I finally settled on a short orange satin dress. Since my husband was preparing dinner like we were at a five-star restaurant, I might as well dress the part. By the time I made it back downstairs, Quashawn was already carrying the food onto the balcony, where we had a beautiful view of the beach. The smell of everything made my stomach growl. Quashawn looked over his shoulder. “Sounds like somebody’s hungry.” I walked toward him. “With everything smelling this good, I can’t help it.” He took my hand. “Then stop standing there and come eat.” I let him lead me to the table, where I sat while he went to get our drinks. Once everything was ready and my plate was full, I looked across the table at my husband. “Damn, I would say you’re working very hard for my forgiveness.” I was only teasing him because, honestly, the moment I’d st

  • The Billionaire in oil-stained hands    Husband on duty

    Chapter 81 Quashawn After spending some time at the beach, we made our way back to the house. Once we’d showered and changed into fresh clothes, I headed downstairs to the kitchen. I had barely stepped inside when my phone rang. Pulling it out of my pocket, I saw Malik’s name flashing across the screen. “What’s so important?” I asked as I answered. “I got the evidence connecting Nicholas and Ethan. What do you want me to do with it?” Malik said. I thought about it for a moment before answering. “Hold on to it for now. Make sure everything is secured. I don’t want either of them knowing what we have until I’m ready to make my move.” “Are you sure? We could get things moving right now,” Malik suggested. “I’m sure. I’ve waited this long. A few more days won’t hurt.” I told him. “Alright, boss. I’ll keep everything secured until you get back,” he said. “Good. And Malik?” I said. “Yeah?” “Not a word to anyone,” I warned him. “You got it.” I ended the call and slipped my phon
