Andrew Reynolds stood at the door of his grand mansion, his hands stuffed into the pockets of his tailored trousers. He winced as he felt a sharp twinge of pain in his side, a reminder of the brutal fight he had had with Henry.He pulled out his sunglasses and slipped them on, hoping to conceal the bruises and cuts on his face. Moments later, the sleek black Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up to the entrance of the mansion. Andrew stepped out, adjusting his shades and taking a moment to compose himself. He stood tall, his hands in his pockets, as Tony rushed to open the car door for him.Without a word, he made his way inside the car. He had a job to do, and he needed to focus. "There's a briefcase in the living room," he said to Tony. "Bring it to me."Tony quickly exited the car and rushed inside, returning shortly with the briefcase. Andrew took it from him, placing it carefully on his lap. With a sense of purpose, he leaned back into his seat and the car pulled away from the mansion
Andrew looked at her with a stern expression, but he didn't say anything. He just took the card and handed over the money.The girls quickly dressed and left the apartment, and Andrew walked over to the front door, shutting it behind them. He turned to look at James, who sat on the chair, drunk.Andrew stood in front of James, feeling a mix of anger and frustration.James looked at him as he asked, "so what brings you here Andrew? Don't tell me you've come to kill me."Andrew couldn't help but laugh at the irony of the statement. "How ironic James, so tell me, why did you bring Amelia here?"James shrugged, a drunken smirk on his face. "Is that what she told you?"Why did you bring Amelia to your place?" Andrew asked, his voice firm.James smirked, as if he found the question amusing. "Is that what she told you?" he asked, taking another swig of whiskey.Andrew shook his head. "No, that's what happened," he replied, his tone becoming more serious."Did you plan on buying my shares fro
Andrew sank onto the bed beside Lila, his heart pounding with desire. She looked at him with amusement, a glint of mischief in her eyes."Easy there, I didn't know you missed me this much," she teased, trailing her fingers down his arm.Andrew didn't respond, instead leaning in to capture her lips in a fierce kiss. Lila responded eagerly, her body molding to his as they tangled together on the bed.As they broke apart, panting and gasping for air, Lila looked up at Andrew with a mixture of desire and curiosity.He kissed Lila's neck, as she leaned back into his embrace, a soft moan escaping her lips. "I knew you wouldn't get over me so easily," she murmured, running her fingers through his hair.Andrew pulled back, looking at her with curiosity. "What made you so sure?" he asked, a slight furrow in his brow.Lila smiled knowingly. "Amelia isn't your type," she replied simply, before pulling him back into a deep, passionate kiss."You know what I mean, Andrew." She continued." Amelia i
As he stood under the shower, the water washing away the sweat and the memories of the past, Andrew couldn't help but wonder if Lila was right. Did he still want her? Or was he just seeking a moment of comfort and familiarity? He scrubbed his body under the shower, letting the cool water cascade through his body. He couldn't help but let his mind wander back to his recent intimate moment with Amelia. It was different, something about it felt deeper, more meaningful than anything he had experienced before. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but there was a sense of connection that he didn't feel with Lila.As he stepped out of the bathroom, his thoughts were interrupted by Lila's voice. "Hey, drop my towel," she said with a mischievous smile. Andrew chuckled and used the towel to dry his hair before draping it over his shoulders."Come over to the mansion, Lila," Andrew suggested, hoping to spend more time with her. But Lila seemed hesitant. "I don't know how long I'll be in
Andrew rubbed his eyes and yawned as he shuffled towards the bed. He gazed at Lila, still sound asleep with her hair strewn across the pillow. They had had a rough night, but it was worth it.He gently untangled himself from her embrace and stood up, stretching his arms and legs, trying to work out the kinks from last night's activities.He walked over to the window and opened the blinds, letting in the bright morning sunlight. The view outside was stunning, with the trees and mountains in the distance.Andrew then pulled out his phone from his pocket and checked the time. 8am - not too bad, he thought.He also checked to see if there were any messages from Tony. He was supposed to come pick him up this morning, but there was no message from him.He scrolled through his messages to see if there was any message or if Tony left any, but it was clear. He let out a small sigh and set his phone down on the table.He decided to make himself some coffee, but as he walked into the kitchenette
Amelia made her way down the grand staircase, the soft wool of her dressing gown trailing behind her. She had woken up early, the sun barely peeking over the horizon, she walked up to the study to check on Andrew since he didn't show up the previous day.As she approached his study, she hesitated before knocking on the door. She took a deep breath, then knocked twice. But there was no response.She waited for a few seconds, then held the knob and opened the door. "Andrew?" she called out, but there was no answer. What if he was busy? she thought to herself.She stepped into the room, and her eyes widened in surprise. The study was still in a bit of a mess. Books were scattered everywhere, papers were strewn across the desk, and the curtains were drawn.She realized that Andrew didn't come back home."Andrew didn't come back, hmmm," she said to herself, her brow furrowing in concern.She remembered Andrew putting something in his drawer yesterday when she had walked in. Her curiosity
Nanny Grace cleared her throat, sensing the awkward moment, and stepped forward."Lila dear, I'm so happy to see you. Come, let me take you to the guest room."But Andrew interrupted her, his eyes fixed on Lila. "No, nana, thanks. Please take her things upstairs to Alexander's room."Lila looked back at Andrew, her eyes alight with amusement. "Oooohh... Seems you want to spoil me," she teased, and Amelia felt a pang of envy.Feeling out of place, Amelia turned and walked away, making her way to the kitchen where she could be alone with her thoughts. She knew she had to keep her emotions in check if she was going to survive the weekend with Lila in the house.Nanny Grace made her way up the grand staircase, carefully balancing Lila's luggage in her hands. She couldn't help but notice the tension between Amelia and Lila, and knew that she had to tread carefully. As they reached the top of the stairs, she turned to Lila with a warm smile."Here we are, dear. Alexander's room is just do
Amelia sighed, rolling her eyes. "Am I not just a business transaction between you and my dad?" she retorted. "This shouldn't be a problem."She finally emerged from the bathroom, dressed and ready for breakfast. Without a word, she walked past Andrew and headed downstairs. She walked into the kitchen and saw Lila carrying a plate of food to the dining table. Lila smiled brightly as she saw Amelia and said, "Amelia darling, I made breakfast, Andrew's favorite."Amelia felt a pang of annoyance at Lila's countenance. She was tired of Lila's constant attempts to be friendly and pretend like nothing had happened in Turkey."Thanks, Lila," Amelia said flatly. She walked over to the dining table and took a seat, trying to ignore the feeling of Lila's eyes on her."Amelia, should I dish your food now?" Nanny Grace asked as she walked up to her."Yes, Nana. Thanks," Amelia replied, grateful for the distraction. She looked down at her plate as Nanny Grace held it up and dished in the mashed
