ALICE RILEY "I like you; you are a wonderful girl. But your stubbornness? I can't deal with that. Unless you mend your ways-" Before he could complete his sentence, I said goodbye and walked out. Just a week into our dating, all he could see was my mulishness. Dating men wasn't my thing, somehow. Men drooled over my beauty, but it was my mind they couldn't handle. Only a few dates with any man, I knew he would find me headstrong and quarrelsome. But I was determined not to change my attitude for anyone. Then I met Vivian Scott, the CEO of Scott Group. Why wasn't he ready to leave me, unlike others? Did he think he had it in him to make me mend my ways and bend my knees? VIVIAN SCOTT I had everything to make a woman go weak on her knees - looks, power, position, money! Becoming the CEO of Scott Group at a young age might have made me a responsible person, but it didn't stop me from having any fun. Whenever I met a beautiful woman, I knew how she would react, and I didn't leave any opportunity to tease her and get playful. But it wasn't ever more than a fling - until I met Alice Riley! She was a beauty, no doubt, but what enticed me the most in her was her mind. She wasn't anything like the girls I met before; unfortunately, she thought, by throwing attitude, she would keep me off her life. How could I not chase her? __________ Cover Image Credit: Image by Freepik

Billionaire's Reluctant Girl 11. Alice's Night with Vivian Part 2
VIVIAN SCOTTI looked at the attractive girl working in the kitchen in her short skirt and a white blouse. She had changed into comfy clothes before brewing coffee for us. Alice was a natural beauty. She looked good in whatever she wore, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her toned legs as she kept tapping her feet while brewing the coffee. “Here you go,” she said as she kept the coffee cup in my hands. The smell of fresh coffee hit my nostrils, and I inhaled it deeply.“Ah, this smells so good,” I said as I sipped coffee from the cup. “And it tastes heaven.”She laughed, making me forget the world for a few seconds. Man, this girl! She was killing me with her beauty.“Don’t tell me coffee is your weakness,” she giggled as if she caught me stroking myself. I agree that I made it obvious I was a coffee lover. But that giggle was a little too much. Unnecessary, I thought.“What do you like?” I asked her, hiding my thoughts.“I do like coffee. But I guess not as much as you.”“You judging

VIVIAN SCOTT Alice was stubborn. She tried to act tough. But behind that facade, I could sense some vulnerability. It felt like she was consciously hiding her interest in me, only to seem unaffected by my persona. Stupid girl! The harder she tried, the more evident it was. I was curious to know more about her. She pulled me like a magnet, and I allowed myself to go in her direction. Her refusals to my offers didn’t bother me because I could recognize she was only masking her emotions, faking her attitude. Oh well, I, of course, wanted to ensure I was right. So, tonight, I was going to test it. Putting a stop to my thinking, I turned to my right to watch the beautiful face sitting beside me. She swallowed her last piece of burger and smiled. “Thank you for the food, Mr. Scott.” “Call me Vivian,” I said, taking another cookie from her. “When you eat together, that too, in a car, you surely are friends.” She grinned at my point. “That’s a good logic. But technically, we aren’t fri
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Billionaire's Reluctant Girl 9. That Car Ride I couldn't Ignore
ALICE RILEY I told Vivian Scott a no to dinner date! As I stood up, ready to leave the restaurant after rejecting Vivian’s invitation to join him for dinner tonight, I knew I was behaving rudely with him. But I couldn’t help. The atmosphere between us had always been a mix of tension and teasing, and dining with him could have only threatened my sanity. I refused, weighing the implications of accepting his invitation. His charismatic demeanor had already left me feeling both intrigued and conflicted. There wasn’t room for further meltdown. Moreover, I was genuinely pissed at him for using his CEO powers on me. Could a billionaire, a CEO, or a boss be ever considerate? After I stormed out of the restaurant, I stood at the exit, waiting for my cab. Ten minutes passed, and still, there was no sign of the cab. Instead, I received a call from the cab driver. “Ms. Riley, the car has run into engine issues. It’s taking time. I’m afraid you will have to book a cab.” I could suddenly f

ALICE RILEY A strong hand wraps my waist and pulls me closer. I felt a man's body holding me tight, and I opened my eyes to see who hugged me. It was Vivian! What was he doing in my home? “Vivian!” I exclaimed. But instead of answering me, he encircled my midriff with his firm hands, drawing me further closer with his undeniable strength. I upped my chin to have a vivid look at his eyes, and he smirked as his eyes bore into mine. Surprise escaped my lips, "What are you doing?" His soft, well-shaped lips parted as I waited for him to answer. But against my expectation, he leaned forward and crashed his lips on mine. I trembled with a mixed emotion of pleasure and shock. As he explored my tender lips, his hands traced the contours of my body. Slowly, his hands travel up my body from my waist, brushing my side boob, exploring my shoulder and neck, and finally stopping at my chin as he cupped my face to kiss me with a better balance. His passionate kiss sent shivers across my nerve

ALICE RILEY Is this for real? I questioned myself as I took long and quick strides to the office of Vivian Scott on the fifteenth floor of his Head Office. Kate, his assistant, directed me to his cabin this time instead of the conference room like earlier. As I neared the door of his office room, I remembered my last visit and all of the stupidity that followed later. How on earth did I think I would never have to face this man again? Fidgeting my fingers nervously, I stood there a moment and started contemplating escape opportunities, which were none, of course. Taking a moment to pull myself together, I knocked on the non-transparent glass door. “Come in,” the deep voice of Vivian Scott hit my ears pleasantly. Using my right-hand fingers, I pushed the door just enough to squeeze my body inside. The scent of premium leather and polished wood filled the air. Dressed in a cream-colored suit, Vivian Scott sat behind the long table, browsing his phone. His soft and silky light bro

The news must have spread before the official announcement. "What is it with you and Scott Group, girl? Did I hear you are now the key contact for them?" Maria almost attacked me as I occupied the seat beside her the following morning. Turning on my computer system, I flashed at her proudly. "Hard work pays off." When I said that, I meant it. I was working my ass off to build a career for myself. More girls in Lexis Consultants worked hard, too. But unlike them, I knew how to grab the opportunities. Of course, ethically. Glancing long across the cubicles to the entrance and then to the cabin of Mr. Segal, I turned to Maria, who was engrossed in her system. I asked, “Has he come in yet?” Maria reached before me today, and I hoped she might have a clue if Mr. Segal was in already. I badly wanted to talk to him. I wanted to know if my new responsibilities would mean I was in regular contact with Vivian Scott. “Do you mean the boss? Yes, he is in already. You could get a call anyti

VIVIAN SCOTT Shutting down my laptop, I looked at the phone screen. The time was exactly six in the evening. An hour ago, my assistant had updated me that Ms. Riley would be here around six. She should be reaching any moment, and I picked up my blazer and phone and walked out. As I reached the parking lot, I saw a car stopped at the visitor's park, and there she was, looking like a boss lady. She was dressed in a beige V-neck blouse tucked into white dress pants and pointed-toe pumps and looked classy yet sassy. The way she walked up to me to greet me with oozing confidence, I couldn't take my eyes off her. She wasn't anything like the thunderstruck girl I saw three days ago. It would be a lie if I didn't admit she made my heart skip tonight. I shifted my gaze from her only when I heard her say, "Are we set to go?" I smiled at her and asked her to sit inside my car. We both were seated in the back seat as I wanted the driver to drive today. I usually preferred taking the driver for

VIVIAN SCOTT"And dinner meeting today at 6:30 pm. Ms. Riley from Lexis Consultants will accompany you." Kate, my assistant, was updating me about the day's schedule. "Alright," I replied and dropped the call. A meeting was fixed for tonight with one of our competitors to initiate the discussion on the possibilities of business acquisition. I had requested a legal attorney to accompany me to the meeting. As per Kate, Ms. Riley from Lexis Consultants was going with me. The name sounded familiar, and I started recalling it. Is she the girl I met three days ago in my conference room? Her stunning looks were still fresh in my mind. Didn't she go dumbfounded seeing me shirtless the other day? I had even cursed my luck as she barged into my room unexpectedly, but only until I saw her admiring my body. I had even enjoyed teasing her before leaving the room! But to be frank, I had no intention of meeting her again. It was only a moment's fun. Meeting pretty faces and seeing them getting fl

ALICE RILEY "You are intelligent, beautiful, and determined. Vivian Scott isn't an easy man. I'm impressed that you got the signatures on time." Alexis Segal, the head of Lexis Consultants, appreciated my work in front of the entire department. I was back in the office after that awkward but successful meeting with the CEO of Scott Group. Just two months into my internship, I had gained enough goodwill from Mr. Segal that he put me to assist in managing the company's key accounts. Alexis Segal wasn't a total badass. He only acted as one when his crucial clients weren't handled well. I knew Lexis Consultants was the stepping stone to my ambitious career. One day, I wanted to run the best legal firm in the city. I smiled at Mr. Segal and returned to my section. As I occupied my seat, Maria and Sofia, my colleagues, waved at me. "How did it go?" Maria inquired. "Success," I grinned at her. "Thank god, we are saved. I wasn't ready to take the wrath of that badass, trust me," said So

1. Their First Meeting
ALICE RILEY"This is important. All I need is just ten minutes of Mr. Scott. I'm sure he wouldn't want to cancel the appointment now, especially after I have made it here." I persuaded the receptionist to get me the meeting with the CEO of Scott Group, Mr. Vivian Scott, who had canceled the meeting at the last minute due to an emergency.Had I not been an intern at Lexis Consultants, the legal consultant firm of Scott Group, I would have created a scene for not honoring my time, I'm sure. But I had to keep my cool. My career was important to me. I was furious inside but managed to hide it behind my fake smile."I am going to check again, Miss Riley. Please be seated." She answered politely.I slowly inched towards the couch fixed in the middle of the room and sat comfortably, throwing my handbag and the file on the seat next to me. Not having anything else to do, I pulled my phone out of the handbag and started browsing through my emails.A few minutes into my waiting, I started losin
