Kylie

It was only less than a year since I walked out on my marriage to Arnold Kesington. But walking into the house today, it felt like I'd been gone for many years. A lot of things were still the same, but I couldn't help noticing the obvious signs that multiple women had been in and out of our home since I left.

I peeled off my shoes and stretched my toes. Somehow, the air in New York always made me feel sick. I preferred the slower pace in Los Angeles, but after realizing I couldn't surv

  • The Billionaire's Plump Chef    CHAPTER 41

    Marie Sue I was happy that Lucy was going to be working in the kitchen, close to me, instead of in the administrative areas where she would be close to Arnold. It meant they would have little time to interact, and perhaps Lucy could be saved from the claws of Arnold Kensington.As soon as Kylie left, I decided to look for Hilda Holland again, for one last time, before I finally gave up. At least, I would have good reasons to say I had to cut her away from the project because she was not contributing.Perhaps I could get another partner assigned to me on the project if I made a formal complaint, or I could just do it alone.I found her at her desk, and she looked at me in the usual way that she did, as though I was something she was trying to get rid of."It's you again," she said.She pushed her seat backward."How far have you gotten with the project?" she asked.I felt irritated by her question."We were supposed to work on this together," I replied. "You're not taking the role of

    KylieI dropped the phone and rose to my feet."Get up, Kennedy. You have to hide immediately."He looked at me, confused."What is going on?"I walked toward the blinds and looked outside. I could see Maya standing outside, waiting for me."Maya is here," I said, walking toward him. "You have to hide."I looked around. The only place he could hide in my office was the bathroom, and I hoped Maya wouldn't ask to use it before she left."In the bathroom," I said quickly.He got up and walked toward the bathroom."Quickly," I repeated.He opened the door, stepped inside, and closed it behind him.I let out a deep breath.Wrong timing, I thought. Why would Maya come to the office today? And why did she have to come on the very day Kennedy was in my office?"Shit," I cursed under my breath.I picked up the phone and spoke to Anita Baker."Let her in," I said.Then I returned to my large cabinet and pretended to be busy sorting through some files.The door opened, and Maya walked in. She st

    KylieI looked at the list of interns for the year, and I frowned. Every year, Kensington Foods provided three limited internship slots, and this year, I had managed to put myself in charge of recruitment.The plan was to place people I could control and avoid selecting any girls who might catch Arnold's attention. But somehow, this year, all three internship slots were occupied by girls.I looked at the name: Lucy Lee. She had been recommended by Arnold. I stared at her picture. She was a pretty one.Then I went through her profile and somehow found out that she was related to Marie Sue.As soon as I saw this, a strange laugh escaped my lips. So this was the plan? Lucy Lee would try to snatch my husband, while Marie Sue would try to take Jordan Kensington. The two stepsisters were after the Kensington brothers.I was never going to allow it, and that was why I had chosen Jada Steven.Jada had approached me for recruitment into an internship position that would allow her to work close

    Marie “You love sushi?” He asked. I picked up a pair of chopsticks and pointed it at him. “Yes. I love sushi.” Then I pulled up a sad face. “This one is spoiled though.” I could see two plates so I assumed he had gotten it for him and his date. Perhaps the date he was in a hurry to see last night. I dropped the chopsticks. “I have something to ask of you, Jordan,” I said. He raised a brow. “My sister is temporarily staying with me,” I said looking at Lucy who smiled happily at us. He lowered his head and looked at her. “Okay?” “Arnold gave her a job at the company today and I was wondering if she could join us…just for…today.” He looked at me. “What? Do I look like a driver?” I laughed. “Pleaseeeeee.” That was the same way Lucy had begged me that morning. She practically kneeled on the floor and once again, I remembered that she had left Chad Boston for me. So I agreed. I closed my eyes as I dragged out my plea, and when I opened them, he was just looking at me. “First,

    Jordan “Jo!” Levi said, slapping my back playfully. “I thought we'd lost you for a while back there.”I collapsed on the sofa and removed my coat and loosened my tie. I'd not even considered changing my clothes before running away.“I need a drink,” I said.“The games tonight are high stake games,” Levi said as a waiter poured my drink. “I'd be darned if I don't play.”He looked at me.“Not playing, Levi.” I grabbed my drink and nodded a thank you to the waiter. A lot of my personal money was already funding KF and gambling the rest away tonight was not my plan.“You seem to have grown ten years older in the last hour, Jordan. How have you forgotten how to have fun?”When Levi had more responsibilities like heading a company, I figured he'd understand. Or perhaps, when Annie puts to bed. I'd love to hear him lament about the cost of baby food and how he cannot go out on Wednesdays anymore.“I'm having fun, Levi,” I replied.A girl who I recognized arrived beside him and flung her arm

    JordanI smiled at the picture of her in a colorful beachwear. It seemed like she had taken a trip a couple of months ago. I swiped to the right and my smile broadened at her goofy pictures. “What are you smiling about on your phone, Jordan?” Levi asked.“Huh?” I looked up. “Nothing. Just some pictures.”“You're smiling at pictures now, Jordan? Of who? Jada?”I rolled my eyes. Jada was the girl Levi was trying to get me serious with. I'd told him that I wasn't interested in anything serious but he never seemed to pay attention.I came to the end of her photos and locked the phone screen. She hadn't posted any photos in over six months. Not even a photo of her first day at work at KF as the head chef. She could have pulled a lot of followers by just announcing that.I thought about that blue dress again.I closed my eyes and images of the evening replayed in my mind. The way she smiled when she stepped out of the changing room.“Are you going to keep day dreaming or we're going to hea

    Marie Sue's POV I rose to my feet, not believing my eyes. “You?” “You two know each other?” Lara asked. “Yes.” “No.” I said no because I didn't want any trouble. Lara grinned. “I’m glad you two already know each other. Jordan, this is Marie, your future wife. Marie, this is Jordan, your fut

    Marie Sue's POV I limped into my apartment only to find it unrecognizable. My furniture had been ripped apart, my pillows sliced in two and my coffee table in splinters. Those loanshark assholes! I cursed them all the way to the moon as I arranged what was left of my living room. When I was done

    Marie Sue's POVRunning in broad daylight wearing a coffee-stained T-shirt that said ‘fuck me’ and grey sweatpants was not on my to-do-list. But when the loan sharks you borrowed from come knocking at your door demanding their money while holding weapons, all you have to do is run. And that's why I

    Marie Sue's POV We were here.A long, tree-lined driveway stretched ahead of us, the trees too perfect to be real, their branches softly illuminated by distant lights. The Kensington Mansion came into view then; a sprawling, white stone building with gold detailing and vast windows that reflected
