The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 23: The Comparison
Riley's POVI was making breakfast when Victoria arrived the next morning. She looked radiant, like a woman who'd gotten exactly what she wanted."Good morning, Riley," she said, settling into Brett's chair. "You look tired.""I'm fine.""Are you? You seem... diminished somehow."Brett walked in, his hair damp from the shower. When he saw Victoria, something flickered across his face."Morning," he said quietly."Good morning, darling." Victoria's smile was brilliant. "I hope you slept well.""Fine."I set his coffee down without looking at him. His fingers brushed mine as he took the cup, and I jerked away."Riley, would you mind making me some of those delicious scones again?" Victoria asked. "Brett was just telling me how talented you are in the kitchen.""I don't have the ingredients.""Then perhaps you could run to the store? I'm sure Brett won't mind waiting."I looked at Brett, waiting for him to say something. To tell her I wasn't her errand girl.As usual Instead, he nodded.
The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 22: Revelations
Brett's POVVictoria found me in my study at midnight, still wearing that cream silk blouse as she moved like she owned the place, settling into the chair across from my desk."You look tired, darling.""What do you want, Victoria?""I want to talk about us. About what we had."I set down my whiskey. "We had nothing.""That's not true. We had everything." She leaned forward. "Do you remember our engagement party? The Plaza ballroom, five hundred guests?""I remember.""You gave the most beautiful speech. You said I was the only woman who understood your world.""Things change.""Do they? Or do we just convince ourselves they do?" She stood, walking to the window. "I still have the ring, you know. The five-carat princess cut from Tiffany's.""Keep it.""I kept it because I always knew we'd find our way back to each other.""Victoria""I know what you're thinking. That I betrayed you. That I chose Marcus over you.""You did choose him.""I chose safety. You were so intense, so demanding
The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 21: The Maid Treatment
Riley's POVI spent the night staring at the ceiling of my small room. Victoria's words echoing in my head. The help. That's all I was to her. All I'd ever be.The next morning, I made Brett's coffee like always. Black, no sugar, served at exactly 7:30 AM.He was already dressed in his charcoal suit, scrolling through his phone. He didn't look up when I entered."Your coffee, Mr. Graham.""Thank you." Still no eye contact as I turned to leave, but his voice stopped me."Victoria will be joining us for breakfast."My stomach dropped. "Of course.""She'll be staying in the city for a few weeks. Business.""I understand.""Good."The word hung between us like a wall. I wanted to ask if he'd meant what he said yesterday. If he was sorry. But his cold tone told me everything I needed to know.The elevator chimed at exactly eight o'clock as Victoria glided in wearing a cream silk blouse and pearls that were expensive. Her hair was perfect, her makeup flawless."Darling," she said, kissing B
The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 20: Victoria's Entrance
Brett's POVI was reviewing quarterly reports when she walked into my office like she owned the place.Victoria Sterling. Six feet of blonde perfection in a Chanel suit that cost more than most people's cars. She moved through my space like a predator, touching my things, claiming territory."Hello, darling," she said, settling into the chair across from my desk like she belonged there."Victoria." I didn't look up from my papers. "You're trespassing.""Am I? I seem to remember having a key to this office.""You remember wrong."She laughed, the sound like glass breaking. "Still so cold, Brett. I'd forgotten how that turns me on.""What do you want?""Can't I visit my ex-fiancé without wanting something?""No."She stood, walking around my desk until she was behind my chair. Her hands settled on my shoulders, and I fought the urge to shake her off."I heard about your little... arrangement," she said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "A homeless girl, really? Even for you, that's quit
The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 19: The Other Woman
Riley's POVI should have seen it coming.Brett's cruelty had been building for days, each interaction sharper than the last. He'd been looking for a way to hurt me, to prove that our night together meant nothing.So when he appeared at my door with a dress bag and a cold smile, I knew I was in trouble."Put this on," he said. "We have an event tonight."The dress was stunning – black silk that clung to every curve, with a neckline that bordered on scandalous. It was also too small."This won't fit," I said."Make it fit.""Brett""It's Mr. Graham tonight. And you'll wear what I give you."I stared at the dress, understanding dawning. "You want me to look desperate. Trying too hard.""I want you to look like what you are.""Which is?""A woman who'll do anything for money."The words hit their mark as I felt my cheeks burn, but I refused to look away."Fine," I said. "But you'll have to help me with the zipper."Something flickered in his eyes – heat, regret, I couldn't tell. But his
The Billionaire’s Broken Contract Chapter 18: Dangerous Territory
Brett's POVShe was driving me fucking insane.Three days since the storm. Three days of watching Riley move through my penthouse like she belonged there. Three days of remembering how she'd felt in my arms, how she'd looked at me like I was worth saving.Three days of pure hell."The Morrison contracts need your signature," Marcus said, setting the papers on my desk.I didn't look up from my computer. If I looked up, I'd see Riley curled in the chair by the window, reading to her daughter over video call. I'd see the way sunlight caught in her hair, the soft smile she reserved for Lily.I'd remember how that smile had looked when she'd touched my face and promised she wouldn't leave."Sir?""What?""The contracts?"I signed them without reading. A hundred million dollar deal, and I couldn't focus on a single word."Also, Ms. Plia's doctor called. Lily's surgery is scheduled for next week."That got my attention. "Next week?""Yes, sir. The heart specialist had a cancellation."I glan
