Novel & Cerita My Former Flame: The Tycoon

She had come here with a purpose – to devise a plan to oust her cheating husband from the company he had built from her sacrifices and ensure he lost everything he held dear. Damien came and stood next to her, handing her a drink. She collected it with an enquiring look. “A mocktail,” he said, taking a sip of his, “no alcohol. I haven’t forgotten how quickly you got tipsy last time.” Flora fought a blush as she sipped hers. The drink was cool and tangy, refreshing after the morning she had had. As they gazed down at the city below, sipping their drinks, Flora couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement. Damien was a billionaire hotel tycoon with a reputation for being ruthless in the busine

“So, the tycoon’s old flame is back? Why haven’t you mentioned her before?” Emily rubbed her chilled hands, warming them before pocketing them. She rocked back and forth in her chair, her tone nonchalant. “Didn’t think it was important.” “So, what about dealing with the old flame first?” Sandy suggested, clutching Emily's beer bottle in both hands. Emily shook her head. “Do you know what an old flame truly represents?” Interest piqued, Sandy shuffled her chair closer. Emily exhaled slowly, speaking deliberately, “It means A will always be A, but B can be anyone.”

Clyde rolled his eyes. Amour and Flame got into the elevator that will take them out. Silence reigned as both of them spoke nothing. "Thank you" Amour suddenly said and Flame looked her way. "For?" Flame spoke. "Thank you, for always protecting me the first days I was brought to Aurelio's clan" Amour said and Flame looked front. "You'd have done the same for me. It was also my fault you landed in that place, since I was the one who framed you with the bag of money" Flame said.

“Sir, what about Tyler Cross? What happens when he gets back from work and sees his missing girlfriend on the couch or something?” My lips twitched in annoyance. “Nothing happens. Juniper will want to tell him the entire truth. Let her. It’s about time he knows I have his ex-fiance in my possession. Maybe then he’ll fully understand what he walked into by accepting the promotion.” And I knew he wasn’t going to quit. Tyler had a lot of debt that kept on piling up. The fucker had also started to gamble to take his mind of the fact that his girl was missing. And now, he was addicted.

07- THE TRUTH THAT BURNS 1. Roxanne Flair. The moment the heavy mahogany door clicked shut behind me, the last shred of my strength vanished. My legs turned completely to jelly, buckling beneath my weight. I slid down the back of the door, my knees knocking against my chest, my breath coming in short, jagged gasps. My heart was doing a frantic, violent dance against my ribs, and it wasn’t just from the terror of my stepfather's betrayal. It was him. Alaric. I couldn't explain why or how my chest had pounded so heavily at his sudden closeness few minutes ago.

"Yes. He confessed to everything. He set the fire. I have the recordings." Joanne stepped forward and grabbed Tyler by the hair. "Tyler, why did you do this? You've been with me for nearly 10 years. When your mother was diagnosed with late-stage cancer, I lent you 100,000 dollars so you could pay for her treatment. And this is how you repay me?" Whatever Sven had done before they arrived had completely broken Tyler. He trembled uncontrollably, unable to keep himself together. Under questioning, he cracked almost immediately. He admitted that he had set the fire partly out of resentment over being fired. But there was also a woman with the surname Sullivan who had promised him 1,000,000 dolla

The city lights blurred through her vision. She breathed slowly. Or tried to. He was gone. And yet he remained. Every heartbeat. Every thought. Every shadow in the room whispered his presence. Valerie Kings, the woman who had ruled empires and men alike, sat still in the quiet of her offic e, and felt the stirrings of a forbidden flame she could not extinguish. A flame that promised chaos. Passion. Desire. Danger.

Then her phone buzzed, and for a split second, Maddison had hoped it would be a text from Grant with another pleading message from the other room. Unfortunately, it wasn't. Her phone had lit up but not with a message from anybody. No! What appeared on the black screen of her phone was a big news alert. BREAKING NEWS: Tyler Cook, the former oil tycoon, is not feeling too good because of the terrible accident that he experienced along the Gulf Coast. On the bright side, he got only minor injuries. This time, it was Tyler COOK in another major mess. Her ex-boyfriend whose selfish ways had led her, without knowing it, right into the hands of her puppet master, the man whom she actually hated so

I don’t understand how I loved this man before. “You can’t make me come back to you, Damon. Even if the world comes to an end right now.” He laughed like a madman. [How much does Matteo Moretti pay you to open your legs to him, huh? How much to the point that you didn’t even ask for my help when I framed your friend for drugs and human trafficking?] My heart raced as anger dripped in every vein in my body. My fists balled and trembled as my eyes sharpened. “What did you say?”
