Pleasing the Billionaire Seventy-five: Regret
It’s been two weeks since Sylvia's accident. Immediately Williams divulged the news of the accident, together with Ryan, they drove down to the scene, just about ten minutes out of state to see she’d been escaping from her calamities. She was rushed to the hospital for immediate treatment and she underwent surgery. At the accident scene, her luggage was found coupled with the original documents she’d gotten Clifford to sign that she was meant to pass on to Jamie to finally start off her takeover plan.After the surgery, her legs were badly injured so she had to rely on a wheelchair and the doctor said she may be paralyzed forever. Due to this, the family had pity on her and didn’t involve the police but they made sure to destroy whatever documents she had in her possession. They fired her from the company too and she was left in a nursing home as she couldn’t care for herself and Williams wasn’t yet over the shock of the terrible secrets she’s been hiding. He couldn't be tasked with

Jamie Henderson had just arrived at one of his Las Vegas hotels, The Bay Resort and Casino, where he would be spending the weekend. He decided to take a stroll around the expensive and extravagant property to see the latest renovations that had been carried out in his absence and the first thing that caught his eye was the club building.He crossed the wide parking lot to the neon-lit club with bouncers outside. They nodded in greeting as he walked past them and into the enclosed space, which was filled to the brim with people. The first thing that greeted him was the pungent smell of weed and the boisterous cheers of the crowd gathered near the stage.His gaze narrowed as he tried to understand why there was a makeshift stage and why the crowd was roaring with excitement. But his questions were soon answered when a man stepped forward who appeared to be the host of the show in progress."Contestant number twenty is up!" he announced, and even more cheers came from the crowd as a blon

Two weeks laterCookie Logan squinted her eyes as she walked across campus under the blazing summer sun. She pushed the sunglasses that sat on her head over her eyes to lessen the sun's assault on her ocean blues as she glanced at the watch on her wrist."Shit," she cursed in a barely audible voice as she quickened her pace and hurried past the canopy of trees that led to the lecture theater where she was having her first class that morning.It was an economics class and she had about ten minutes before class started. Cookie hated being late but aside from that, she couldn't afford to be late for this particular class because the professor that taught the course, Professor Harry Barnette, wasn't a very nice man and took being late as a very serious offense that could cost her some marks for the semester.Cookie was lost to her surroundings as she ran toward the lecture room where the class would be held, but not far from her destination, strong arms suddenly grabbed her, pulling her b

“We meet again,” the man said, reclining in the plush leather seat that was opposite her professor’s desk.“H-Hi…” Cookie said, a mask of surprise etched on her face.“It seems you’ve been destined to always be near me,” he flashed his eyebrows and a smile crossed her face, her surprised expression fading.“Or more like you’re stalking me,” she raised a brow and a wry smile stretched his lips.“But you seem to be comfortable around your stalker,”Cookie’s cheeks stained crimson because it was the truth. As creepy as it sounded that he was always near her, she wasn’t put off by it. In fact, she wouldn’t mind looking forward to seeing him wherever she went because he was a good looking man and she didn’t mind being his center of attention.“Or maybe it’s just the universe punishing you for running away from me,” a hint of amusement dripped from his words, his lips tipping in a smirk, making Cookie to blush a deeper shade of red, as she averted her gaze from his knowing eyes that were gl

Cookie had just reached the door to her dorm when it opened and her roommate, Christy, came out, fully dressed for class. Her gaze slid past Cookie just in time to see Jamie turn to leave."I think you have a stalker, girl," Christy flashed her brows at her before returning her eyes to Jamie's retreating form. Cookie looked back to see she was referring to Jamie and rolled her eyes."You'd think so,"Christy frowned at her response.Her eyes didn't light up like they did the first time they spoke about the man after the Vegas incident. That morning, after running out of Jamie's suite, Cookie went in search of Christy, her roommate, who told her everything that had happened and how like a man on a mission, Jamie had marched to the stage and carried her away."He came in search of you?" Christy asked, still wondering why Cookie was giving the cold shoulder about the man."Not really. He kinda rescued me from Dave's clutches and I met him again in Professor Henderson's office and he offe

“You have to come home, James,” His uncle’s heavy British accent sailed into his ears. Jamie had been about to retire to bed when he got a call from his adopted father’s younger brother, Arthur Henderson. It was to inform him that his adopted father, Edward Henderson had just taken his last breath. The news had left him devastated, opening a deep gash of wound in his heart. While he was still trying to take it on, Arthur began to pressure him to return home for the funeral and that was something he wasn’t going to do. The only man that would welcome him if he ever returned home after the six years he’d spent abroad since the incident that caused a major rift between him and the rest of the Henderson family was dead. Returning to London to be in their midst would be a death wish and that was exactly what Arthur was requesting. “I’m sorry, uncle but you know I can’t,” the words slipped through his lips, despite the lump that had formed in his throat from the news of the death of the o

According to Jamie’s plan, they all assembled at Ryan’s family home in New York the next day, to reveal Sylvia’s decades-old secret. Before then, he called Sylvia the previous night after his meeting with Ryan, to set up a meeting with her in Texas, just to keep her away from New York during the meeting, as a means of evading her. During his call, he assured her he was ready to take on the task and he made her believe he was still annoyed at how Ryan had treated him in the past. It was believable enough to Sylvia and she praised him for finally manning up to do the right thing.Disregarding that they were still on call, she went about spewing her hate for the Davidson’s and how she’d gotten Clifford to sign the documents that would give up his properties and business empire to Jamie, all in the name of partnering with him. She even shared a soft copy of the document to him after the call and asked him to sign it through electronic means but Jamie refused. He stated that they’d need a

The next day, as planned, Ryan flew to Texas to meet with Jamie in a private location. Jamie had tried retelling Sylvia’s evil plans to him on the phone but he couldn’t get himself to convince the man that Sylvia isn't who they all thought she was. Ryan wanted to confirm for himself, so they set up the meeting.It was held in one of the branches of Ryan’s companies in Texas, to avoid suspicions and to make it look like a business meeting if the news ever gets out. Jamie didn’t put it past Sylvia to secretly keep a watch on him just to monitor his next moves.As soon as they settled into the conference room, he handed the copy of the document that Sylvia had given to him to Ryan as a piece of evidence.“There’s the document your family has been searching for, for the past two years,” he stated, settling into his seat and allowing Ryan to flip through the pages as the realization began to dawn on him. A frown marred his face, the more he read through the pages of the contract.“You’re t

That night, Jamie sat in his home office, still pondering on everything Sylvia had confided in him. He couldn’t believe she was the same woman that had committed such evil acts. The same woman that came off as a saint to guilt trip him into forgiving her and accepting her as his biological mother. But it turned out she only needed him to finalize her revenge plans.It hurt him deeply to realize the truth that Sylvia was only using him. She only came back because she needed him as the final piece to achieve her aim. These thoughts swarmed his head as he sat in the plush leather seat, staring at the document she’d handed to him. He didn’t know what was inside except it contained ten percent of the Davidson's assets that she’d somehow acquired, as she’d informed him earlier that day.Slowly, he pulled it closer and flipped it open to see it was a draft business contract that had been signed. Slowly, his gaze traveled through the page as he read the document. It stated that Benjamin David

It was the weekend and Jamie was seated in his car in the parking lot of the restaurant Sylvia had chosen for their meeting. He’d thought it would be at her home or even his home but surprisingly, she sent the address of a restaurant in Texas to him. He thought it was meant to be a private meeting to avoid drawing attention to themselves as her husband and daughter may not take the news well, but then, he didn’t object to her decision. He gave his word that he’d show up and he did. He was in his car for another ten minutes before he got the call from Sylvia that she’d arrived.Drawing in a deep breath, he alighted from his car in time to see her heading into the building. He caught up with her and they exchanged pleasantries before walking into the room, where she’d already made reservations at a private booth in a corner that could grant them the privacy she wanted.At first, Jamie was a bit confused that her husband and daughter were nowhere to be found and he mentioned it as soon a

It was almost an hour later before Cookie could drive back to the house. To her surprise, Jamie’s car was in the garage. She drew in a shaky breath and stared at her puffy eyes through the rearview mirror. Her heart was palpitating and she wasn’t sure she was ready to face him, confront him, and get the truth out of him. What if he confesses that he truly married her out of pity? Considering he already has a child, what if he says he can’t be with her anymore since he has Julia and may not even need to be married? Although she trusted the man, she still couldn’t help worrying and coming up with different self-damaging thoughts. She sat outside for a few minutes before her phone rang and it was Jamie calling. She thought of answering the call but she let it go to voicemail as she finally gathered the nerves to get out of the car and head into the house. She got in to see him in the living room, still dressed in his custom-tailored suit, pacing with his phone in his ear but as soon as

The cold water from the shower nozzles cascaded over them, as Jamie took his time to wash every inch of Cookie’s body. His skilled fingers rubbed her torso, down to her thighs, slipping between her legs to clean her up and she let out a little whimper, her body sagging against his, with her eyes closed. He chuckled and lightly kissed her neck.“I wish I could stay here forever,” she murmured, releasing a deep breath.Jamie chuckled again, loving how she was melting against him.“You had that luxury for a month but you chose to spend more than half of the time in bed, with me,”“And whose fault was it?” she snapped back but again, he laughed.“Not mine, but I made sure you had a good time, didn’t you?” he latched onto her neck, drinking in the droplets of water from the shower and taking his time to suck hard on her soft spot until a hickey was beginning to form.She released a deep moan, feeling like putty in his arms as he toyed with her body.“You know we’re running late right?” she
