The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Mother
[Avery's POV]I stumble into the house, and the smell of booze and cigarettes immediately hits my nose. Grimacing, I pull off my heels and throw them aside before making my way to the living room, where my stepfather and his friends sit, placing bets on a wrestling match. From how loud they are being, it is clear that they're already two sheets to the wind and honestly didn't need this damn beer that I had to pick up.After leaving Atlas' condo, I planned to go to the bar to nurse my wounds, but ended up getting a phone call about picking up some beer for the men sitting in front of me, and of course I couldn't possibly say no since I knew that he would threaten me with my mother if I didn't.That was his favorite thing to do, especially since he knew that she couldn't possibly be out on the streets, and if that happened, I would ultimately blame myself."About time," my stepfather huffs. "What the hell took you so long?""It's called traffic," I sigh, handing over the twenty-four pac
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Like Nothing Happened
[Atlas' POV]I sit at my desk, looking over paperwork, trying to distract myself.Despite convincing myself that my interest in Avery was just a whim, I still couldn't get her angry and hurt expression off my mind, even after going many rounds with Francine in the dark room.Sighing, I lean back, pinch the bridge of my nose, and stare at the door, wondering whether or not she would show for her shift today. After what happened, I wouldn't blame her if she didn't, but somewhere deep down, I hoped she would.Maybe it was because I knew that she was very capable, or maybe it was to make sure that she was okay after I made a fool of her. It was something like that, and I didn't want to think too hard about my reasoning.Lifting my arm, I check my watch to see that it is fifteen to eight. She had fifteen more minutes to show.As this thought hits, the door opens, and I feel my hope rise, only to be dashed away as Dean comes waltzing in."What?" He chuckles, taking the seat across from me.
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex What Happened
[Atlas's POV]Nodding, I make my way over to Greg and then kneel, placing my hand on his shoulder while his frightened gaze comes to meet mine."I'm sueing!" He hisses. "For abuse in the workplace.""The only one abusing anything is you," I counter with a smirk. "Pocketing money as if it isn't a big deal. Tsk tsk. Did you really think I wouldn't find out?""It wasn't me!" He gasps, being the coward that he is. "I-it was Harold!" He continues, naming his assistant. "He t-threatened to place the blame on me if I said anything, so I...""Save it!" I sigh as the sound of feet heading towards us reaches my ears. "For your trial."Standing, I watch as four men dressed in all black enter the room and surround Greg."He's all yours," I announce as they lift him and then quickly disappear.Once they're gone, I lean down and pick up Avery's shoe, then make my way to her."Thanks," she says, holding out a hand, but I ignore it, dropping to one knee and then lifting her bare foot. "Hey!" She gasp
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex A Dangerous Situation
[Avery's POV]I make my way down the hall away from Atlas' office as the sounds of that woman's flirting echo behind me.Dammit, why did she have such good timing, always catching us at the worst possible moment, and this time it wasn't even anything serious? Yet there she was, glaring at me as if I were some sort of homewrecker.Ugh, it was frustrating. Why am I having such bad luck these days? Did I do something to offend the universe? Maybe I committed some grave sin in my past life?Sighing, I round the corner and feel my heart drop to my feet. I have to suppress the ironic laugh that wants to escape me.How was it possible that just after leaving two lovebirds, I ran into another two who were all but making out in the hallway of a very highly esteemed company?Grimacing, I try to turn but stop as I feel eyes coming to fall on me."Avery?" Sadie’s voice drifts toward me, and it is filled with both shock and disgust. "Are you seriously going so far as to hang around Connor’s father
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Her Father
[Avery's POV]I take deep breaths, trying to calm my tumultuous mind, but with each passing minute, I'm being dragged further and further into the past, until it feels like I'm there again on that night that my mother and I finally escaped that hell.Despite all the years that had passed, it was still so fresh that I remembered every damn second of it vividly.The night had started like any other, with my mother in the kitchen cooking dinner while I did my homework in the living room.I wanted to get it done early so that I could show my father just how smart I was because I was sure he would be proud of me.Back then, life was simple, and my family was happy. Little did I know that underneath that facade, my parents both kept a horrible secret from me. One that would change my and my mother's lives forever. It was right around the time that my mother finished cooking and ordered me to go wash up when the pounding on the door started.At first, I tried to go answer because I was too
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Backed Into A Corner
[Avery's POV]When I get home, I find my stepfather alone in the living room, and by his demeanor, it is clear that he was waiting for me. The usual stench of alcohol is a lot stronger, and the eyes that take me in are bleary. Whatever the hell was bothering him was serious, and I was half tempted to turn and head out of the house again.Immediately, I go on alert as I stop in place and wait for him to deal whatever blow he is about to deal."Avery," he begins, speaking gently as if he actually cared. "I've been waiting for you.""I figured," I respond, narrowing my gaze. "What do you want?"After the day I had, I wasn't in any mood to pussyfoot around with this man. I wanted him to tell me what the hell he wanted so I could go see my mother, shower, and then go to bed since I would have to get up early to start job hunting."How's the new job?" He asks, causing me to go on high alert because of his sudden interest. "Are you liking it?""Fine. It's a job," I respond slowly."And the p
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Break Her
[Atlas’ POV]I stare into Avery’s hazel eyes, trying to figure out what in the world was going on in her head. After that show of pride of hers yesterday, why was she back here? She could say that was a joke, but I knew better, and from her pinched expression and the dark circles under her eyes, it was easy enough to tell that something more was going on here."Well?" I push as she continues to remain stubbornly quiet. "If you tell me the truth, I may consider letting you stay. Otherwise, you can get the hell out of here."I knew that being harsh wouldn’t get her to budge, but I was frustrated. Since she stormed out of my office yesterday, I couldn’t get her look of betrayal and pain out of my head. It was maddening considering the fact that there was nothing between us, but I knew that I was at fault in some ways since I decided to remain neutral in whatever the hell was going on between her and my son."I need money," she sighs, beginning to deflate. "Is that a good enough reason?"
The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex Her Burdens
[Avery's POV]Stop.Stop crying.Don't give him a reason to look down on you.Stop.The pleas repeat themselves again and again in my mind, but my body doesn't listen. Instead, the sobs continue to come while Atlas stares on.How was it possible that he would appear here, of all places?I didn't want to be doing something like this, but I was desperate, and the time to make twenty thousand was growing shorter and shorter.When I went home that day after embarrassing and shaming myself, I found my stepfather with two men. And when they spotted me, hunger immediately appeared."Is this her?" One had asked, giving a slow smile. "She's as much of a beauty as you said."At his words, my heart dropped, and I realized that what my stepfather had said the day before was true.In that moment, panic set in, and all I wanted to do was get my mother and get the hell out, but before I could get anywhere near her, I was being grabbed and thrown down.I began to fight with all my might, but three ag
