Karen's POV"Brody?" I asked and he nodded.The name sounded familiar, I recalled Bill telling me about the billionaire whose name was Brody. "And your name?" He asked"I'm Karen Miller." I answered.He smiled. "Are you in a relationship?" He inquired with a smile.I shook my head, my gaze shifted to him. "I'm very, very, very single." I told him. I wondered why he asked such a question.He chuckled and let out a grin. I stood up and walked to the fridge to get him something to drink, I brought out a glass of wine and dropped it on the table."I'm sorry but I don't drink these types of wine."I nodded embarrassed and took the bottles of wine, I went back and returned it.Coming back to the parlour, I sat on the sofa."I'm also very, very single and I'm ready to mingle." He muttered and plowed his fingers through his hair.Silence hung in the air. "So when do you intend on getting married?" I asked in a flirtatious way, breaki
Karen's POVI tried to push him but his grip around my waist tightened as he began to lick my neck. "Help," I screamed and tried to kick him with my legs, I couldn't because he had already pinned me to the floor. "Somebody help." I screamed again.Someone kicked him and I whimpered rolling to the other side as I stood up. It was Brody who saved me. "Stay away from her, you maniac." Brody warned"Stay out of this, boss." He said."Are you insane? I won't let this slip away if you try anything.""I don't care." He said, it was obvious that he was tipsy as he almost fell on the floor but gripped the cupboard handle."You're drunk, get a grip of yourself or get another woman but not Karen." Brody said and clenched his fists as his body arched into an offensive stance."Alright, we don't have to fight over a useless thing." He replied."I'm not a useless person, you're the one who is useless by wanting to take advantage of me, asshole." I snapped."Whore
Karen's POVThe room seemed silent and empty as I opened my eyes. I rolled over to the other side hoping to find Brody but he wasn't there. Sitting up on the bed, I noticed I was naked. A gasp escaped my lips as I shivered in fear.My heart beat increased rapidly as I came down from the bed. I was so confused, I wondered why Brody wasn't in the room after we had sex yesterday.I was naked and I could remember him touching me and we undressed, I couldn't remember anything after that but I had a feeling that we had sex. I quickly wore my clothes and headed for the bathroom. Checking my face in the mirror, I noticed that I was a little bit dull and tired.I rinsed my face and came out of the bathroom. It was so annoying that Brody was nowhere to be found, he had probably got me drunk and used me. "How could I be such a fool?" I asked myself picking up my bag from the floor.I walked out of the room slamming the door behind me and climbed down the
Brody's POVI adjusted my tie as I walked into the organization Mr Bill worked for, I found a lady there already talking to his secretary. "Hello, I'm here to see Bill." I said and the secretary frowned."Do you have an appointment with him?" She asked.Resisting the urge to insult her, I answered politely. "Yes, he called me over to his office. My name is Brody Taylor." I answered and the lady turned to look at me.It was no other person than Karen. Embarrassed, I pretended not to know her. "I was actually hoping I would wake up and find you in the room this morning." She said and looked at me..I avoided her gaze and walked towards his office, she swept past me and stood in front of me. "I'm talking to you, you're such a coward." She insulted."I don't know you." I lied.Her eyes showed that she was very angry. "How can you say you don't know me?" She asked.I was getting really embarrassed. "Karen, don't behave like an insane person." I told her
Karen's POVAs I walked towards the door, I heard Bill's voice in my ear. "One million dollars."I cringed at the amount and turned back. "I'm ready to sign the contract, what are the terms and conditions?" I asked, I decided to let Brody get away with what he did cause I was also drunk."I thought you wouldn't be interested." He snapped."Well, I'm interested." I replied and cleared my throat.He laughed as we sat down on the chair. I looked at Bill who smiled at me. He brought out a document and placed it on the table. "I'm going to read out the terms," he paused and looked at me again with a smirk. "No sex, no kissing, no cuddling, no getting drunk." He added.I frowned. "Those terms were not compulsory." I replied and took the document, I glanced through the paper and smiled. "How long is the contract going to last?""It's only going to be for two weeks, you'll be able to live your normal life after that and I'll pay you." Brody told me,
Brody's POVI drove into my organization and parked my car in the parking lot. It was a short but boring drive, walking into the organization, almost everyone scurried to their seats except my best friend.He looked at me with a smile. "What's the problem?" Alex asked.I became confused. I didn't remember informing him of any problem, I didn't know where he got the idea from. "I don't understand you."He chuckled. "I mean, we all know that you only come here when you're angry or you want to sack someone."I frowned. "That's not true," I told him, he looked surprised and perplexed. "I mean, it's not a lie but I don't always sack my workers."His brow furrowed in consternation. "Really?"I glanced through the hall, everyone seemed to mind their business. They avoided looking at me. "Is that the reason they all ran to their seats when they saw me?" I asked."No one's to get on your bad side." He answered.I shook my head in shock and w
Karen's POVI knocked on the door for about 2 minutes before Emily finally opened the door. "What were you doing?" I asked her and walked into house.Throwing my bag on the table, I slumped down on the sofa tired. "That question should be directed to you." She answered.I frowned, raising an eyebrow. "I don't really understand your point.""Where have you been?"I chuckled. "I came home this morning, I didn't meet you at home. I wondered if you didn't sleep here.""I slept at Henry's apartment." She confessed and I rolled my eyes."Why?" I asked, surprised."I was scared of staying alone." She answered with a smirk.I nodded and smiled at her. "It's your fault, you watched a horror film.""I'm not the one who's at fault, what happened? Did you guys do anything?" I asked, sitting up. I wanted to hear everything that transpired between them last night.She frowned. "The guy is a little bit dumb, the main re
Brody's POVI drove into the compound and I was surprised to see Helen, my sister together with her son waiting outside. I quickly parked my car and came down from the car.Walking towards them with a smile, Diego hugged me and I giggled. "Hi, I didn't know you would come tonight." I told her.She chuckled. "Yeah, I lied. I know that." She said as we walked into my house. My maids went to carry Diego's bag to the guest room.I adjusted my tie and sat down on the sofa. "Sir, will you like to eat now?" Lisa, one of the maids asked.I shook my head and turned to look at Diego, admiring his attitude and face, I smiled. "Your son is really cute." I commented."Thank you." Diego appreciated and I beamed with excitement."I was hoping to see your girlfriend, where is she?" Asked Helen.I turned to face her as she sat down. "Girlfriend?" I asked back, shocked. I didn't know mom told them already."We'll be visiting soon, mom told everyone about
