The Billionaires Game Chapter 82
Lucy's POV“What do you mean by you can't act anymore? Then why are you here?” Melissa asked, sipping her juice.I didn't know which one to answer but I picked the first. “I don't know. I think I lost it. I guess I'm scared. I haven't done any auditions in months and you know why.”“Because you're married?” She asked, taking another sip of her juice.“No, because I got a ton of refusals and I lost my spark.”“Sounds like a lame excuse to bail out. I thought you wanted to do something,” she pushed at me.“Yes, I want to. I….I just don't know if I can. You know. If I can do it anymore,” I confessed.“Seems too late to say that now since I already submitted your name,” she said and my eyes widened.“Hold on, I was supposed to do that this evening.”“I figured we would have more chances if we went a little faster,” she answered. Then she dropped the cup on the table and touched my shoulder. “Sweetie, it's fine. You used to help me go over my practice so I don't think it should be a proble
The Billionaires Game Chapter 81
Lucy's POVI was in her house in her apartment in no time, but I had problem getting the exact room. I couldn't believe I forgot. I knocked on the first door that came to mind and it opened, revealing a big man with tattoos and a biker's jacket, smoking a cigarette and looking at me like I made the worst mistake of my life.“What do you want?” He growled, and drank from his beer bottle.“Uhm…” I said, startled and was just about to explain that it was a mistake when the bodyguard appeared behind me. One look from him made the man uncomfortable and he closed his door.“What did you do?” I asked and he glanced down at me. I wasn't that damn short for him to keep straining his neck. Even Shane seemed to do that a lot and I made another mental note to buy the highest heels next time.If I would live long enough to see my teeth shining. “Nothing, ma'am,” he replied and looked around the small passageway.“Do you know her room number?” He asked and I started to scratch my head. I knew it, I

Lucy's POV “What day is the audition?” My fingers hovered over the send button and I let out my breath just as I pressed it. It clicked and the delivered word appeared on my screen. I sighed, and stared at the sky. Maybe it wasn't a bad idea after all. I was off to make magic. I sipped the last bit of my coffee and dropped some cash on the table, holding it with my cup then strode down to the car parked a few meters away. The bodyguard followed behind me and opened the car’s door before I got in. By the time I arrived at the mansion, everywhere was dark and peaceful. I evaded meeting anyone and got to my room. I had done this on purpose, making sure to stop at every convenient place to either get ice cream or watch people moving around to delay time before making up my mind to go home. I got to my room and closed the door. At least I had peace for a while. All I had to do was wait till Shane returned and somehow that felt like a total bad idea because I knew they would be waitin
The Billionaires Game Chapter 79
Lucy’s povThe fact that we had to sit and eat breakfast like a perfect family was something I would never understand about the Wilsons.It had been Paul’s idea, according to him, having breakfast as a family was a symbol of unity, but we were anything but united and he knew that.Nobody hid their hatred for each other, but Meredith knew how to hide hers with thinly veiled insults and offensive humors.I was the first to arrive at the table and just as I made to sit, Meredith walked in. She looked like she had just got out of bed. She wasn’t dressed as usual.“Lucy, darling,” she drawled, a serene smile plastered to her face, “how was your night?”I knew that it was a trap, answering her would lead to many more insults and well, not answering her would lead to chaos.I plastered a fake smile on my face. “It was okay.”“Mmm, why wouldn’t it? I bet Shane got you a Diamond bracelet.”I smiled and decided that her question was not worth a response. “Did you know, the company shares fell
The Billionaires Game Chapter 78
Shane’s POVI groaned and let out a deep sigh as my eyes fluttered open. I was sprawled across my bed, my ribs aching, a dull throb behind my eyes. Lucy was asleep beside me, her face buried in the pillow. I stared at the ceiling, replaying fragments of my memories of last night…the fight, the wounded men, the whiskey haze and of course, the revelation that Dwayne was my biological brother. I turned, careful not to wake Lucy as I slid out of the bed. The house was still, mercifully so. I needed air.Dwayne couldn’t have known about this too. If he did, he wouldn’t sit still and let me have all I had in the company. As I ran, I thought about our relationship. Dwayne was an asshole, we had never gotten along well and now, I was sure that it was all Meredith’s plan.When I finally arrived at the estate, I met Lucy already at the breakfast table, her hands wrapped around a mug. She looked up when I entered.“Morning,” I said quietly.“Morning,” she mirrored, offering the mug. “Strong?
The Billionaires Game Chapter 77
Shane’s pov;I let out a deep sigh. Both were important, but I had to choose one and so I did.“I’ll be back, Lucy,” I said, giving her a small smile.“Oh, of course Lucy, I’ll send you the money for the monelle bag, it costs nothing,” I heard Meredith say and Xandra snicker.I clenched my fist tightly. She’s got guts speaking that way. I can’t wait to uncover her secrets.The drive to the clinic was a blur, I didn’t remember how I got there, but as soon as the building came into view, I let out a sigh and killed the engine.I sat in the car for a while, one hand clenched around the steering wheel, the other wrapped tightly around the edge of the leather seat. The morning sun spilled across the windshield, too bright, too clean. I could’ve gone to see her first, my mum. The one I’ve spent years looking for, but I didn’t, not yet. It wasn’t as important as this. I needed to know this first.I needed the truth in black and white. No feelings. No confusion. Just data.That’s why I go
