Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 34-MAKING PLANS-CONNER
Later that morning, Conner spoke to his father. Merina was in the shower and still unhappy that she couldn’t leave. “Have you come to your senses, Conner, and seen the logic behind you marrying Merina?” Ian asked Conner as they sat down to share a coffee in the main living area after a late breakfast. Ian had come knocking and interrupted Conner by entertaining himself with Merina again. Both avoided discussing his activities in the suite’s bedroom. “Yes, I have. I see potential. But not for the same reasons. But I’m thinking it would be best that we keep her identity quiet and the marriage, too. If Gabriella or Joseph discover we’re married, one or both will do something crazy against us. I want to catch them red-handed, but I don’t feel like paying a permanent price.” Conner said to his father. With time, it appeared as a superior and more secure plan. They’d not discussed how Merina possessed the training and experience to do the job they needed.

Merina stood in the shower, letting the water run over her aching muscles. Now, she was unsure of her next move. They’d thrown a wrench in her plans. How could she accomplish the necessary task amidst such blackmail? She didn’t want to end up in jail. There wasn’t any way she could get her father released from jail, either. She didn’t have the money for bail. It didn’t matter how much his bail was. She was sure she didn’t have any money to spare. Merina had used her money to start her consulting business and hadn’t asked for a cent from her father. In fact, she hadn’t told her father anything about her time abroad. She’d told him nothing about her additional education and training. He showed no interest or curiosity whatsoever. Another reason she'd leave the company and her family emerged. She understood better than anyone that she must right now bail out her father and the family business. No one wanted her there, making everything different and un

Conner took her shoulders and turned her toward the cream tiles. She had to extend her hands to support herself. She was panting when Conner’s hands found her breasts, his hard form fit against her back. Merina could feel his proud thrusting cock pushing up between her thighs. He must have his knees bent to fit so well against her. Her thighs shook as his hands toyed with her breasts. Teasing her nipples as he massaged her full globes. His hot, slick body teased her core and back. Merina could feel her core ache needing his touch already. She stood there panting as he kissed her throat, nipping at her neck and shoulders. Merina heard and felt his hot breath on her body. No man had held her like this. Or evoke such emotions. “This isn’t fair, Conner. I can’t touch you. I’m sore, and I need some rest.” “Love, all you need to remember is love and war aren’t fair. They’re both hot and dirty, where one must take part for a chance to survive.

That was it. The freedom of releasing into his wife or soon enough. Conner’s father wanted revenge on Andre MacGregor. Well, right now, Conner thought he’d help him out a little and punish Merina for her deception. It would kill Andre to know Merina was pregnant with an O’Keefe baby and Conner could tease the hell out of Merina with sex. He enjoyed hearing a woman scream in pleasure. Some women begged for it, but he suspected Merina didn’t know what she missed out on. He’d educate her on his ability to shape her actions. Yeah, he knew it wasn’t the best way to start off a relationship, but he couldn’t afford her stepping out of line in any form. If it meant he had to keep his fingers between her thighs or humiliate her a little, he would. Jail would inflict even greater suffering upon her. “Now we’re going to pretend that there’s nothing going on between us, Merina, when Gabriela returns. I’m sure she’ll be stupid enough to forget half of what every

Merina stood in the living room in a blue cocktail dress. She felt overdressed. “I’m not sure why you think we’re going to exchange vows today? Doesn’t it take days or weeks to arrange a wedding license issued?” She stood there with her damp hair up in a messy bun. The lightest dusting of makeup, a blue crepe dress, and black heels. She’d avoided any jewelry for now. But she felt numb after she cried, and she prayed no one noticed she cried earlier. “Don’t you worry about that. Just answer the judge and sign when required. Ian said. He stood by the table with a document and a gold pen in hand. “What about my father? How will I bail him out?” Merina asked. Her voice sounded small and petulant even to her. She didn’t know what she expected to hear. But Ian didn’t ignore her question but made it clear to her it wasn’t important. “In due time, I’ll deal with that. But right now, someone in my head office pulled some strings. There’s a judge

Merina felt happy they left the hotel without encountering Gabriela or Joseph. They shouldn’t recognize her, anyway. If they’d ever been to the MacGregor estate, they’d most likely never seen a photo or painting of her as Lillian removed them all. Merina stayed out of the media because it didn’t get her anywhere. Merina wanted to thank Lillian for her excellent work. Conner didn’t let go of her arm the entire way from the suite to the car, and she didn’t speak to anyone before they ushered her into a rather nice residence rather than a courthouse or government building. It appeared they’d pulled a lot more than a few strings. “Conner, this looks like everything’s overdone. No need for all of this. She felt guilty at how much effort they’d gone and the inconvenience. “It could have waited.” “You’re not attempting to use logic to weasel your way into jail, are you? Merina, I expected something better from you. The O’Keefe family always get

Ian stayed behind after Conner and Merina left to return to the hotel. He and the judge worked out a deal that benefited both parties. Andre would owe him a lot after this. Merina was only the beginning. He knew he’d dodged a bullet with Lillian. Back then, she could defeat him. Now Ian watched Andre regret buying into Lillian’s lies. If all that Ian knew was believable. Lillian took over everything when dealing with Andre’s family life. She’d installed herself as the center of his world and no one like Merina was part of it. Merina became a distant memory in Andre’s mind because he struggled with his business and making enough money to keep Lillian in the lifestyle she demanded. Then there was Galen. He wasn’t a boy anymore. Yet he still lived with his mother and relied on Andre’s business for a job and money. Andre needed to get out of jail so he could save his company from, Ian assumed, Joseph Mandela. But Ian would not forgive and forget. Andre

Joseph sat across from his niece, Gabriella. He called her his daughter because he’d paid a weighty sum to take her from his sister after her husband died in a job that went wrong. She struggled to comprehend the job’s success and their continued dedication. He had goals and no one would stand in his way. Joseph determined long ago that he’d take over every company and family that he felt failed people like him. Oh, he wasn’t getting revenge for the little guy. No, he wasn’t a martyr. Joseph saw himself as a better man wronged and he’d use any means necessary to prove it. There wasn’t any idea of providing better services or products. He wasn’t looking to lower prices, and he was sure he wouldn’t be giving anyone else a break in life. The world belonged to the takers. That’s what he did. History taught him that great families rise on the shoulders of others, and he would follow suit. “So, let me get this straight. You were doing what you

Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 115 -EPILOGUE-MERINA
[SIX MONTHS LATER] The family piled out of the limousine. Baby seats and gear carried by a happy Conner, Ian, and Andre. Merina noticed her father wave at a man in a wheelchair who was being pushed by a female attendant. That was Ana’s father. He appeared to be headed into the house from somewhere in the garden. Today was Ana’s wedding and the hive of action revealed how close the ceremony was to take place. Merina and Conner had to hurry to get ready. The two grandfathers were taking care of their two little bundles, which worried Merina a little. Merina caught sight of their fathers showing off the babies to everyone who showed any remote interest. With that, the wedding planner whisked her and Conner off for the final preparations. Hair, makeup, dress, champagne, photographs became a whirlwind of excitement and activity. Security was exceptional, with news of Jeff’s wedding and news leaking about his new album. “It’s a perfect day for your weddin

[SIX MONTHS LATER] “That goes into the front living room by the main table. Please place gifts at the entrance. There’s a table for them there. Until it’s time to open them and then, while we are in the dining room having lunch, you’ll bring them into the front living room. Oh, I must go, the special guests have arrived.” Joyce said to her housekeeper as her staff rushed through her home, performing the last-minute preparations for the party. Many guests were here already and gathered in the front living room. Joyce, Merina, and Ana were all surprised to receive acceptance responses from RSVPs for their invitations. Instead of rejections or being ignored all together. Merina avoided the public eye as much as she could for the long months that the arrests and crimes made news. She didn’t want to deal with the media and the questions. Joyce could understand for Merina it’s far more complicated. She could only imagine an interview being like walking th

Jeff wanted to celebrate. His plans were going as expected. Ana agreed to marry him. He wanted everything perfect. Later that week after the party, Merina held her housewarming for their condo rebuild. Despite Merina being a wreck, it went off without a hitch. He’d learned from Conner that they’d confirmed that afternoon that Merina was pregnant. However, they didn’t know how far along she was yet. They’d have those results in a few days. He showed Ana around his home, pointing out the details he had overlooked before because of other priorities. She’d returned to the house and come prepared not to feel impressed about what he showed her. This house stood for their future and his first step towards stability in life, which Ana came to accept. “I don’t understand. If you record your album at the studio at the production studio, why do you need this room here?” “I don’t write in the studio. I don’t enjoy writing with background noise as it

Doctor Sutton arrived in less than an hour after his father called. Their fathers sat in the living room, refusing to leave until they learned what Merina had. They’d made a bet that she might be pregnant. Conner admitted they weren’t doing anything to his knowledge to prevent the pregnancy. But with all the stress and anxiety, she could have worn her immune system down and caught something. He didn’t remember her avoiding food or being ill. But Andre claimed her mother didn’t have morning sickness, so that changed nothing for him on what the cause of her illness could stem from. “Conner, I thought I said not to bother the doctor about this? If I still feel like this tomorrow, I’d make an appointment.” Merina said. Her voice appeared groggy and disgruntled to everyone. “It’s alright Mrs. O’Keefe. It’s better safe than sorry. I’m Doctor Sutton and I’m well paid for nights like this. It’s fine. Do you have any idea why you feel well? What
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 111-DINNER WITH THE FATHERS-MERINA
For the first time, Merina stepped inside the condo. He’d found an experienced designer to remodel it into a fashionable, spacious home for their needs. She moved through it. The movers had already done their job. She had only her business things needed to move in, and she had a company licenced to do that coming in later that day to set up her office. They didn’t keep a physical office because they ran on word of mouth. That meant they could work wherever their secure files were. Now she walked through the top floor of O’Keefe Industries Office building where Conner set himself up with his condo a decade ago. He liked the ease of commuting, and they were downtown with a private elevator. Staff wouldn’t be knocking on their door at all hours. The chef and housekeeper were present as day staff. They’d leave after they served dinner most nights. They had space to grow and entertain. But Conner insisted this would be their home until they had children.

Medina observed men with their differences in appearance and demeanor. “It’s like they’ve left all serious business at the door.” They’d seen Conner drop an ice cube into Dan’s lap and then they were wrestling. Jeff proposed to Ana in an unusual manner, but she still had to respond. The position he put her in. Merina was like Ana. She didn’t know how she’d respond. Conner gave her a choice that wasn’t a choice. “So, you won’t punish me or give me grief for working? You won’t belittle me in front of other people for having goals in life that don’t include what you want?” Ana asked. Her questions revolved around how he’d treated her and how he wouldn’t do it again. “That’s right. I promise there won’t be any extra details.” Jeff said to Ana. He aimed to calm her thoughts, enabling them to move forward, and for her to feel at ease enough to agree.“What about your photos with other women?” Will they end too?” Ana hated seeing those photo

Merina sat eating dinner with everyone. They ate in a more relaxed setting. They forgo the dining table for the living room. Staff disappeared, leaving Merina unsure as everyone began eating. Conner had something planned. She knew he must. That was Conner. Conner had reasons for his actions, often known only to him. It didn’t take long for Merina to notice Ana’s change in mood and her disposition changed toward Jeff. He’d worked some kind of magic on her. Merina heard something, unable to distinguish between Ana’s joyful cries and Joyce’s sounds. Conner held her back, saying they’d have fun later with everyone. Two of his friends came without lovers. When she asked how this worked. Conner said they enjoyed watching and acting as coaches. He claimed it gave an impartial opinion on how to become more creative. He offered to call someone in to show her how it worked. But Merina couldn’t see herself as the hostess getting off and ignoring her guests. Th

Jeff smirked as he followed Ana into the guest room. “What are you doing?” Ana said. Her tone demanded an answer as her eyes flashed with fury. “They told me to use this room. It’s not like we haven’t seen each other naked before. Live a little Ana.” Jeff caught Ana’s arm as she tried to leave. “Hey, you don’t want your friend and host to feel horrible, do you? We’re all adults here.” “Some more than others it seems.” Ana pulled her arm from his hand, but he didn’t step back. Jeff let his height give him the advantage. “It’s time to stop this, Ana. Sometimes I forget to drop the persona because people prefer it over the real me.” “I’ve always kept that I didn’t care for the persona or the job. You never got it, did you? I wasn’t dating you for others to see me with you. I didn’t see you for your money or your capabilities. Yet, you tell me you believe I’m lying to you. Fine, I have lied to you about two things. But only two t

Ana watched the men come toward them. A worried woman trailed behind men ready for battle. “Ana, we need to talk.” Jeff said. “You need to hear me out.” He looked stern and foreboding when he said that. Joyce came around the men and tried to avoid notice or interrupting the drama. “Nice romantic setting. It’s a pity we can’t distract the gaggle of ganders behind him. They don’t need to see this.” Merina nodded, where she stood off to the side in Ana’s peripheral vision. “We didn’t plan this, but it’s like an Edwardian romance scene. This’ll become lost on them. I believe. They won’t see the chance to use it to their advantage.” She said, her voice was low to not interrupted Ana’s words. “Sad, I agree with you. It could have become a fond memory.” “Jeff, I don’t need that. You’ve made it clear that I filled gaps in your life, but there weren’t many. But heaven forbid that my time doesn’t align your schedule. Then I
