A Billionaire's Love Chapter 30
Karen's Pov The brisk air hit my face as I stepped outside the apartment door, a welcome to the confusion began swirling in my mind. I took a deep breath, trying to center myself. The sky stood high casting its usual glow but this time it only felt like it was mocking me. I had escaped one nightmare, but my real battle lay ahead.I couldn’t shake the feeling of vulnerability that lingered after my encounter with Liam and Conrad. They had helped me, yes, but who were they really? My instincts screamed caution and trust was a luxury I couldn’t afford at the moment.As I walked down the street, my heart raced at the thought of facing Devon again. I had to confront him, to reclaim my sense of self and dismantle the twisted hold he had over me. The last thing I wanted was to fall back into his manipulative web. Not ever again.I pulled out my phone, hesitating over the contact list. My fingers trailed stopping at his name, the very sight of it sending a cold shiver down my spine. Memories
A Billionaire's Love Chapter 31
Karen's Pov.I opened the door slightly revealing a man who stood tall with his back to me looking through the glass of the skyscraper. “Good morning.” I started, closing the door behind me.“I wasn't expecting any more-” He paused as our eyes crashed, realization dawning on my face. “Liam?”His shocked expression soon melted into a smile. “Oh Karen, what a coincidence!” He chuckled, stepping away from the window and to his desk.“I didn't expect to see you so soon.” “Neither did I,” I replied, stepping into the room, trying to shake off the flutter of emotions that his presence stirred in me.I didn't expect Liam to be financially unstable but neither did I expect him to be the CEO of Lex Operate. I tried to hold up my strained smile, printing it plastered on my face. My legs shaked as I moved closer to his work desk standing just a few inches away from the chair.“Take a seat.” At his command I made my way into the child slipping into delicately while trying to mask my nervousnes

Karen's Pov.I took in a deep breath stepping into the restaurant. Liam had somehow managed to email me the address. Probably getting my address from the receptionist. The restaurant was a reach furnishings and the aroma strong with luxurious meals. Stepped into the restaurant immediately spotting Liam at the far end of the restaurant his eyes positioned directly on the phone screen. He wore his usual black suit that hugged tightly on his body.Clearing my throat to get his attention, his head suddenly shot up meeting my eyes. My heart raced feeling the weight of his gaze. “Oh, Karen.” He stood, extending his arm for a handshake.”I almost thought you'd make it.” He chuckled.I took his hand, shaking back.” Why wouldn't I? Strictly business isn't it.” “Of course.” His smile deepenedI took my seat opposite him dropping my file back on the table. He positioned his tie properly before taking the file again but in less than two minutes he placed it back on the table.“Well, I think the

Karen's Pov I twisted and turned, feeling restless in my bed. The night was cold and lonely and I still couldn't get any rest. Images of Devon kept appearing in my mind. From how loving he used to be up until how he became after our marriage. Tears welled up in my eyes, falling to the mattress. I clutched my body hugging them as the tears continued streaming down my eyes. Where it all went wrong.My thoughts wandered to Liam. The offer... It was so tempting. But the more I thought about it the more I realized how little I knew about Liam. He was kind, yes, but I still barely knew him despite the fact that he saved me. My mind still didn't want to fully relax with him.I groaned, massaging my temples. I couldn’t think straight. The anxiety was too suffocating.Deciding to get out of bed, I walked to the window and stared out at the city lights wondering what I would do. My mind racing. I didn't know if I was prepared for the kind of change I was stepping into.The sound of my phone vi

Devon's Pov.The office environment was filled with it's usual silence as I walked in. Employees shaking abd trembling in fear while others shielding from my gaze afraid of what I could do or what would come next. Grey Tech was facing it's down day and things needed to be done to get it back to it's former glory. I paused in front of my day looking above my shoulders as the low murmurs stop noticing my sudden movement.“I didn't receive yesterday's folder.” I started my voice laced with distant.”Why?”The entire workers froze at my voice before a middle-aged man from the tech department came forward.“Y-yes sir. It still needed so corrections so I was hoping to deliver it today.” His voice shook and I could already see his body giving in to the fear he felt.“Incompetent” He shot back, irritation clear in my tone. They could never do anything right and it only made me pissed.I turned to back facing my office oak door. “You're fired.” I didn't need to look back I could already fee

Devon's Pov.The heels of my shoe clicked to the gray marble floor as I casually strolled into the Lex Operate building. The office environment was silent but not the kind that was built on fear or emptiness but the whole workspace was organized and the workers in a coordinated union doing their work with ease and accuracy, something that Grey Tech once had but now, it was a shadow of its former self.Liam Falcon and I were the worst of enemies even business rivals weren't at each other's neck like we both were. We had so much in common when it came to the business industry but yet we were still polar opposite. Ever since our alliance together as a partner with Europe's biggest tech industry, things had taken a drastic turn for the worst. Liam was too power hungry and fuelled by greed and the luxury from the money that came from it. He wanted to overtake and pull through the Europeans taking over their entire division right under their noses. If there was one thing he knew how to

Devon's Pov.“The deal has been sealed.” I told Gemini as she lowered her head down awaiting a response. She didn't dare to meet my eyes, she rarely did.“His team will be here tomorrow morning so make sure everything is intact and ready. I don't want any shortcomings, if anything goes wrong every worker in this company's life wouldn't be far behind.” This time talking to every one of my employees.Gasp from the crowd followed but as I sent a deadly glare towards them they became silent immediately.“And if you think I'll let these leaking details and corruption slip by just because all is well, then you're a joke. Whoever the culprit is, I'll find you and make sure you regret setting a foot on the face on earth.” Healing the company was the main priority but that didn't mean that afterwards I'd let things slide. Someone had to be behind it all and I was going to make hell sure that I made them regret their forsaking life.I immediately set my heels straight into the elevator door an
A Billionaire's Love Chapter 37
Karen's Pov I settled on the black oak desk of fine furnishings, my bag was situated just a few inches away from me. The office was massive, the entire room had the smell of luxury. There were two book shelves and cushions seated at the corner and side respectively.I took a deep breath, inhaling the new work environment. This was my life from here on out. Working with Liam had its advantages.I wasn't even aware of. As his P.A I needed to be closer to him working on urgent hours when he needed me. In order to ensure that everything was without a flaw he got an apartment not so far from his estate. It was a coincidental life saver. The pay was good and the work hours were flexible. A typical 9 to 5pm daily.A knock from the door abruptly brought me out of my stream of thoughts. A lady with blonde straight hair and dressed in a corporate blouse walked in.“Miss Karen?” She asked and I immediately nodded.“Yes.”“Okay.” she said moving closer. “I'm Fiona, the head of the IT coordinator.
