2026-04-21 18:05:54When Simone and Colette were about to part ways, Simone had a bright smile on her face. She had found in her friend a good confidant, despite her fear of judgments, and the taboo nature of her relationship with William.
Colette, however, instead of heading out, turned on her heels, and made a beeline to where William had also just risen to his feet.
Simone followed her, slightly apprehensive of what might come out of her friend’s mouth, but also

Conquering one’s fear could be sweetly gratifying… Sadly, Simone wasn’t quite there yet. Indeed, the moment cameras flashed, she became stiff, and her smile became rigid. She didn’t know what to do, or what to say, to avoid making trouble for her beloved… But then again, the paparazzi were not there for her.“Rumor has it that your take-over of the Patera group was nothing short of sensational,” one of them dared to chance a question, despite the subtle frown on William’s face. “Anything to say about that, Mr Stone?”William merely kept Simone to his side, and soon brought her into the safety of the car, with the help of his security detail, who shielded them away from the cameras, and also from the intrusive questions which were fired one after the other.“Are you okay, Angel?” William asked in a soft voice, as he looked down at her, his eyes as t

By 5 pm, the contract had been signed, and a copy was sent to William’s email.Although Simone trusted William to the moon and back, she still had her doubts. Indeed the short meeting with the Pateras didn’t feel like any kind of negotiations, rather like some hostile take-over.And because of the Pateras’ greed and scheming, they ended up losing everything. But that’s how major bets were. Bound to gain lots, might lose everything in the process.“You did it!” She cheered William in a soft tone of voice, as she showed him the signed contract.“We did it, Angel,” he shot back, an easy smile on his face, while he put emphasis on the we part.“We did,” she nodded eagerly.“You should be focused on your shopping though, not your professional phone,” William let out in a tone of soft chiding.“I couldn&rsquo

Upon waking up the next day, Simone looked at the mess that had become of the suite, and knew without even needing to be told that there would be extra fees.She found William at his laptop a few feet away from her. One groan from her was all it took for him to stop looking at said laptop.“Hello, sleepyhead,” he teased with an easy smirk, his eyes glinting with mischief.“You wrecked me yesterday,” she let out in a tone of complaint. “I don’t think I can move.”“I can help you into the bathroom, Angel, if that’s…”“Not going to fall for that one again,” she cut in, giving him a bored albeit pointed look.He chuckled before saying, “Who would ever think you were a resentful woman?”“I didn’t think I was one to hold grudges either, but it is what it is,” she s

William could barely believe how lucky he had been. He knew that if that damned Patera trust fund baby had gotten to his room, it would have been a pure disaster for him. Thankfully, the receptionist had been quick-witted enough to send her away without offending her.And to further add to his luck, Chloe Patera’s face was clearly visible on the footage given to Rafael.“You did a great job,” William praised his beloved Simone, as he hugged her to him in the car that was leading them to the hotel.“I acted on instincts alone,” she admitted in a hushed tone of voice.“Well, your instincts are spot on, Angel,” he told her softly.He soon claimed her lips in a soft loving kiss, to which she moaned… but then, his phone rang, disturbing them, and bursting the passionate bubble they were in.“Answer it, Will,” she whispered against

Within a couple of hours, William was no longer feverish, and was far more responsive according to the doctors, though he had yet to wake up…. But it was progress and Simone was glad to be a part of it.She remained by his side, and Paul replaced Rafael, who had gone to assist with getting the incriminating footage that could later be used against the Patera group. She also didn't fail to update Kevin regarding William’s state. And after doing so, she couldn’t help but ask, “What do you think the Pateras are trying to accomplish?”There was a pause before Kevin explained succinctly, “If nothing’s done, their business is bound to meet an unsavory end soon – very soon.”“You’re telling me they drugged William to save their business?”“Frankly speaking, Chloe Patera had her eyes set on Mr Stone for some time already. It is a

Upon entering William’s suite, Simone could see at once that he appeared to be sleeping soundly — too soundly. Knowing that he was a light sleeper made it even more worrisome.“Mr Stone is burning up,” Rafael declared at the sight of her. “I have already called for an ambulance.”“I’ll go with him,” she said, tears gathering in her eyes, as she thought of the worst. Rafael merely nodded in understanding.The manager, who trailed behind, appeared so conflicted at the sight of his precious guest in such a state.“The woman who came, claiming she’s his girlfriend,” Simone let out as she angrily wiped her errand tears, and approached the bed on barely steady steps.Rafael looked at her intently, his eyebrow rising being the sole indication that this was something that didn’t sit well with him.&ldquo

William woke up the following day to the smell of bacon, and he briefly contemplated for a moment there how lucky he was. Simone had said yes. The mere memories were enough to bring a smile to his face.Although she spent the night, she put her foot down and slept in the guest room as per usual. Ad

Simone had been absolutely right. The evening was an awfully long one.With Alicia Cooper, a trust fund baby par excellence, making eyes and passes at William, Simone barely made it through the business negotiations sane. She had to bite the inside of her cheek a few times, so as to keep the enrage

A few days had passed, and Simone would have easily believed the whole offer was a piece of her imagination, for they didn’t breach the subject again… If it wasn’t for his sweet evening texts, she would have tried to dismiss it all as a joke.The first text, which had reached her as she was reading
