A Game With The Billionaire Chapter 41:
Jeremy adjusted his tie as he ambled down the hall, his tone rigid, he was meeting with the demi-god of business, Devon Brookes to sign a business deal.As he walked down the hall, his earlier discussion with Emma hit him so hard, he thought he even forgot how to breath, but he kept it all in.He took in a deep breath, before pushing the door of the office open, his assistant trailed behind him, with a tablet etched around her chest, she wore her hair up, which is surprising because she never wore her hair up.He could already sight Devon Brookes seated opposite his chair, he took in a deep breath, if his grandfather found out he was about to sign a business deal with a Brookes, he would freak out, almost choking in his morning tea.Just by imagining his grandfather choking out tea, bought a familiar grin to his face, he tucked his smile elsewhere, before walking towards his seat.Devon Brookes stared at him with knitted brows, before stretching his hand forward. "Mr. Hart, it's nice

For long now, Emma had been sprawled up on her couch- technically his to begin with, but it counted as hers, she was sobering, moving the bowl of popcorn down to her mouth while she drowned in her own misery.The couch smelled so much like him, oh, how much she miss his delicate smirk, his dark but soft eyes, why had she said those things? She felt bad.She felt like...Hell, she couldn't even describe it, her throat was hitched, her body was heating, she thought she was even going to end up being sick, her body trembled under the sprawled blanket, she was spaced out, she didn't call her friends, she was sure she would have like a thousands missed calls from them. He didn't came home the other day.She was worried sick, an unfamiliar feeling sinking into her stomach, the TV was on, she didn't bother to glance up at it. Then, her phone chimed loudly, booming into her ears.How badly she wanted to smash that piece of junk, but her hands moved under the blanket, damn, where had she kept
A Game With The Billionaire Chapter 43:
Emma decided that night: She wasn't going to end the damn game.The game brought her closer to Jeremy Hart, it made her do the illegal thing, she broke the rule of her family, she offended Old Mistress Martha. Don't ever hang out with a Hart, now, she would dare the consequences, she posted on her Instagram that her relationship with Jeremy Hart was real, even though she knew it was fake. Still. She wanted to do something."You are dating Jeremy Hart?" Oh yeah, this was the punishment she got. Yay, Old Mistress Martha tapped her cane harshly to the floor, staring at everyone present. "You broke the rule, Emma Roberts." The voice is cold, it's dreadful, as much as everyone present shivered by the sound of her thunder. Emma Roberts was still.She didn't get why her grandmother had called everyone in the family, just so, they could talk about her future with a Hart, this was absurd, even though her family was nowhere in comparable to the Hart's net-worth, she didn't know why the families

"What in the hell?" The man facing her snorted, before pushing himself towards the chair. At first, his eyes were not seen as he was facing the woman sprawled on the floor, and when he turned to look at her. His eyes shallows with nothing but red anger."I didn't mean for it to go that way." Avery sprawled on the floor, her voice hardening, "Grandfather.""Clearly, you are of no use." He scoffed, his dark hair which he had gelled all his life seemed to be peeking out with tiny strands of gray."I am sorry." She sniffed. "It wasn't my fault. I thought that if...""Stay quiet." He was hard, his body tensing, "I gave you just one simple job, Avery, you destroyed it. You made me feel weak!""I am sorry again, grandfather, I swear, I never meant for all this to happen." She wanted to do badly, get out of the floor. Her. Avery, sprawling on the floor while she apologizing to her grandfather, she was sure her knee would be bruised right now, but that wasn't the least of her concerns, she nee

Emma couldn't sleep that night, even though she flopped her bed like a bag of potatoes, her mind trailed away, Jeremy already told her he wasn't coming home, and that he had some things to sort out.She rolled to the other side, letting out a low groan, before clutching her bed sheets hard. She stared at the ceiling for ten minutes, trying to twirl with her hair.When she was little, her mother said milk was healthy and was good for sleeping, she chugged tons into her mouth that day, only hell knew she ended in the toilet barfing.She finally stood up from the bed, reaching for her phone on the bed side table, swiping over to her social handle, and she read the comments.#Gooddigger_12: Cute couple.#Dr_Noah4: Why does it seem fake?She rolled her eyes, staring blankly at the screen, she knew she was working, but a part of her itched to text him. Just one text Emma. She told herself.Emma: Hey.He didn't reply, she flinched. Bobbed back on the bed, and pulled her hair.Her phone pinge
A Game With The Billionaire Chapter 46:
The next day, Jeremy shouldn't have stopped by at his parents house, but he did anyway, why? Because when you break the rules, you feel... free.And, that was exactly what he felt when he stood at the door of his parent's house, with Emma shuddering behind me.He watched her under his lashes the way she pulled her coat together, stared around with those bulgy eyes that would have looked better in glasses and when she finally turned back to him."Are you sure? The Harts never like the Roberts? Your mother? I don't think so." Her face was doubting, she was frowning, and dear, even her frown seemed like her smile.If there was one thing Jeremy knew about his mother: Violet Hart was that she didn't take shit, she was nice in her way, always pampering him and telling him to do stuff, but her dangerous sides had an effect.Such as now, when the door creaked open gently and the only thing Emma could see was a woman dressed in a slight turtleneck gown, a necklace that read 'Hart' in an elegan

Emma: You are pitching your game demo today?Jeremy: Yeah.Emma: Good luck then.Jeremy: Wait, we just left each other like ten seconds ago, why are you texting me this now when you could just have told me?Emma; Don't TEMPT me.Jeremy smiled at his phone, walking along the halls, with his assistant trudging behind him, damn, he had really wanted her to tell him that with her fucking incredible mouth, now, all he had was a text, well great then. He could suck that up too!He pushed the door of the meeting room open, all present people standing up to bow their respect to him. He gave a brief nod- like always, before ambling over to his chair.Positioning himself, he turned towards one of the directors, "Thank you for having me here today." Even though I would rather be doing something better than this.They all chirped a smile to him- something he considered weird."It's such a miracle that you are able to pin a game down in just a month." The director with the quirky glasses pointed o

Emma had seen all Jeremy's facial expressions, his bored look, his happy look, his cheeky grin, his irresistible smirk, but never had she seen his gloomy face.She rimmed her hands against the table of the donut shop, staring around the tiny pink decorated shop, breathing in suddenly.The door bursts open, and a figure strides over to her. He looked good even in his suit that hung over his body, his hair seemed perfectly gelled, he looked well, except for the look on his face."Jeremy? What happened?" She stared in plain horror at the way he threw himself unto the chair."Emma," His voice is distressed, he seems to be going through some sort of pain, he ran his hands down his hair, pulling the strands away, "My flashdrive." He paused when the waitress bobbed over to them.What was with the waitress who came at the wrong time?"Thanks, but water will do just fine." Emma gave her a tired smile, she smiled, took one look at Jeremy before passing by. Yep, especially waitresses who gobbled

“Asshole.” Emma stabbed the needle into the hole, then another, and another and now her throat hurt.Her younger sister walked into the living room with only a night robe on, she flicked on the globe and let out a yell when she saw Emma.“Goodness!” She flinched back in surprise, her heart still beating from the shock. “Why are you here?”She stared up at her younger sister, her eyes dried with tears, goodness, she had rushed here last night, and thank goodness that her parents weren’t here, she had jostled the keys into the hole and crawled into the lonely sheets, the only thing she could do was cry herself to sleep.“Do you really stay here all by yourself?” Emma stared at her sister with narrowed eyes. She didn’t know why, but it didn’t feel safe for a fifteen year old in a huge mansion all by herself without any adult supervision.“The housekeeper and the butler are here to keep me company.” Her sister appeared from the kitchen with two mugs of coffee, handing her one, her sister

Jeremy didn’t even know where he was going, but he was sure of one thing: He had to warn Avery. Oh damn, what was his problem again?Running out on Emma. Again. How would she feel? His stomach churned, he could turn back and go home, join her and they could sip coffee together.He raced towards the Imperial Restaurant, and stopped at the entrance, checking his phone, he went inside. The restaurant was almost closing for the day, the place was empty except for some people who stayed behind to catch the latest gossip.Where was Avery? His eyes glanced around nervously, and when he saw a figure seated on the chair, one hand swiping through her phone, the other clutching a cup of coffee.Sharp jawline, petite cheekbones, pursed lips, it didn’t take two and two to know that it was Avery.“Avery.” He scooped himself towards the seat.She glanced up at him, at first, shock flashed in her iris. “Jeremy?” Her voice felt tightened and stiff. “What are you doing here?”I am here to warn you, he

Was she obsessed with him? Goodness, she was obsessed with him, she checked her phone, blank."Damn!" She slumped against her car seat, and sighed, rubbing her temples together. The cold December air flushed against her face, she checked the time in her phone. It was still early in the afternoon.Which reminded her, Peter was supposed to be here an hour ago, she checked her time frowning, they had agreed on 12:30pm, so where in the hell was he?Should she go out and look for him? Or should she call his number?Just when she was attempting to push the door open, her phone pinged, Peter's name filling the screen.Oh. What seems to be the problem?Immediately, she swiped it."Peter." She inhaled hurriedly, "What has happened-""Emma, I am really sorry but I can't make it today, I just realized that I have other plans."Her heart seemed to tremble, she had looked forward to talking to him, now he wasn't even going to be here."I am really sorry, can I make it up to you?""Get me coffee ne

Jeremy stretched his hand forward, inhaling the sweet and damp smell of the wind in his nostrils. The night wind always fascinates him, he didn't even know what he liked seeing there: Was it the stars that twinkled? Or the moon that lit his face when he thought about his life, but nevertheless, the night was the only thing he looked forward to all the days of his life.His hands trimmed towards the cup of coffee, he didn't know why, but caffeine made his heart jumble away, especially in the dead of the night.It's funny how you could think of someone, wish they were there, and in reality, they were there, right in front of you."Jeremy!" Her voice caught him out of his reality, her lips were pursed in anger, those pretty shoulders almost jabbing towards him, "You haven't said a thing!"Was he supposed to? Because he had nearly forgotten how it was to breathe, because with this woman by his side, he seems to have lost his source of oxygen.Her perfect figure stood high in the night sky
A Game With The Billionaire Chapter 65:
Emma dreamed about last night, it was so good she wanted to relive it again and again and again, when he was asleep, she stared at him, at his lush brows that seemed to stretch out when he was asleep, to his lips that seemed swollen.This morning, she still wanted to relive it, but her brother- who often was very annoying just had to knock on their door this morning and demand breakfast.The moment she opened her door, she almost controlled herself from plucking her hand into his face and giving him a punch; he was going to destroy her morning with Jeremy."Hey. Sis." The moment he said that while grinning, she let the anger subside and pulled him into a hug, he smelled safe, just like when they were kids, whenever they got into a huge fight or were arguing about something, he would just stop and hug her.He always smelt safe."Come on in." She nearly controlled an eye roll, as she led him into the room, his hair wasn't scattered around today, thank goodness, his dark green eyes seeme

Jeremy was really going to find it hard to sleep tonight, because Emma Roberts had never looked sexier in that skimpy dress of hers, it hugged right above her thigh revealing her... God. What has gotten into him?Instead of sleeping like any other normal human being at this time of the night, he was right beside the kitchen island, sipping cold coffee while staring at the dim light.Thoughts of Emma filled his mind, he was crazy for her. Her laugh, her body, her smell, he couldn't take it anymore, it was tempting.And definitely, he wasn't ready to go into that room and lie down on the same bed with her and not dream about this.He placed the cup of coffee back on the table, his body feeling feverish."Jeremy?" He heard the tiniest voice ever, he could even make out the shape of her figure under the light, so fucking beautiful, "Are you there?"Oh gosh, he wanted to hide right now, but then he said. "I am in the kitchen."Shuffling of feet, then the flick of the globe, the light shone

It's hard how you can balance being a female CEO without people having to look at you weirdly amongst themselves and whisper. 'What's she doing?' or 'Does she know what she's doing?'Just watching them say those words always brings out some sort of low esteem in her, but after all those years, Emma finally realized that the only way she could get hurt was if she actually paid attention to those things.Today was no day to pay attention to them, because today, she was going to have a nice evening with Jeremy, and they are going to paint. Yep, she's finally going to overcome and paint something, even if it's just splashing paint on the board."Ma'am?" There's a subtle knock on the door of her office, since she has been gazing at the clock, seven couldn't come any slower.Her assistant trudged in, with a stack of folders in her arm. "There's a man named Mr. Hart here to see you. Shall I escort him in?"She had nearly thirty minutes before she would be out of the office, spending a few wi

Jason was done arranging all these folders, and signing and making appointments, it never did seem to stop, just piling up in front of his table. He hated this part of the job, well, he hated being stuck as a billionaire with no future except with the one of making money.He ruffled his hands on his laptop harder, the keys almost bobbing away, at least that was a great way to make sure he was okay.A head peeked from his door, he recognized the face."What do you want, Mary?" Mary was the name of his assistant he just hired a month ago, fresh out of college, she was efficient in her work, but still. She was always messing his appointments up."You have a meeting with the Denver enterprise today sir. Like right now." She bites the lower of her lips, her face growing pink, "I am so sorry, I forgot, I had no idea until the call and-"Yeah, that was it. He sighed wearily, before massaging his temples, pushing his chair aside, he yanked his suit jacket from the chair before swinging it ove
A Game With The Billionaire Chapter 61:
When Emma was in the car with Jeremy on their ride home. She received a text from Avery.At first, she thought it was a normal text from her mother reminding her to wear make-up, or brush her hair or it was just one of those useless advertising ads piling up in her email, but it was Avery.The text was short, yet carried with so much importance.Avery: Hey. Can you come to burger dine if you aren't busy, Jayci would love to meet you.She swallowed the lump that formed in her throat, before gazing out of the window, the building stood in front of her elegantly, 'burgers and dine,' written well in a cold blue font.Something in her heart cracked. Burgers and dine was just near them, how in the hell had Aubrey known she was here?Avery was inside there, she couldn't possibly have seen her car outside, or could she be tracking her?She swallowed involuntarily. These past few days, she hasn't been having a good feeling about Avery or anything, even though it's rude since the latter already
