Simone Griffith Novels & Stories

Wren chuckled to Grace who also laughed, causing Simone to fume. “You should take acting classes, star in a movie where you’re the ugly villain. I’ll definitely tune in,” Grace added. “You shut your mouth!” Simone grunted. Simone's eyes darted around the room, seeing all the people staring and the phones subtly angled to catch the moment. She knew she had to be very careful about the way she acted next. She immediately put on a smile and said, “Felix is marrying the Ellington heiress soon. And when that happens our families will own the skyline. And pathetic leeches like you will be scraping our shoes.”

The faint touch left her puzzled. Simon sat down boldly and focused his gaze on her face while directing his words at Griffith. "Griffith, can I have my woman back?" The room fell silent. Griffith burst into laughter, though the mirth didn't reach his eyes. His tone had a dangerous edge as he said, "Where is your woman?" Simon looked at Charlotte, still smiling but saying nothing. Charlotte felt anxious, wanting to move the man's hand off her shoulder but having nowhere to hide. Griffith whispered in her ear, "Suddenly, I don't want to acknowledge my losses anymore."
