All Chapters of Loving My Real Estate Tycoon: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Willa was not a stranger to hard work. From an early age she was used to getting up early and milking cows and tending to the horses on the farm. Learning the family business had a lot of responsibilities. It also included going to the office on occasion with her parents while they worked. Her and her older sister would be asked to do minor things to help out around the office. Two generations of the Stockholm family were now involved in the dairy farm. After grandpa Ben passed away he left everything to his only son Trevor, Willa’s dad. Since Trevor didn’t have any sons of his own just two daughters, Willa and Rainey were destined to run the family business. They were more than willing to do it too, because they both grew up knowing how important it was to continue the family's success. Besides they saw how much money the business was able to rake in even though their parents worked long hours. They were treated well all around and were the envy of many in town. Rainey worke

Grey’s driver opened the car door for them and they rode off in his black Maybach. It was top of the line and completely private in the back with a screen that went up between the driver and passengers. Willa felt a little uneasy with just the two of them in the back of the car together. He seemed a little too domineering for her.“I didn’t expect to run into you again so soon after just meeting you at the Farmington Vineyards. Small world.” He actually did know about her to some degree because he had done some digging around about the Stockholms for his Aunt Miller’s piece of mind. So he told just a little white lie.“Yes, indeed.” Willa felt uneasy and she shifted in her seat. “I don’t mean to be forward, but how do you know the Miller Dairy folks? I was surprised to see you today for the acquisition of their dairy farm. Aren’t you in the real estate side of business?”Grey looked at her intently before he spoke. “I am in real estate. I also have connections with the Mil

"Good morning sunshine!" Kaysea chirped. "A little birdie told me something about you and our mutual friend Grey Langley. So how come you are holding out on me? I thought we were besties.""Wow! How did you know that I had lunch with him?" Willa couldn't believe that the local gossip had started chattering already about her. She had just gotten back into town. It hadn't even been a full week yet.“It’s a small town Willa. You know that everybody knows everyone around these parts. My friend Tiffany happened to see the two of you going into Baron’s at around noon. She said that she recognized you from the pictures of us that I have at home. She described him as tall and quite striking with his dark eyes, dimples and gleaming teeth. I knew from the description that she could only be talking about Grey.” Kaysea sounded giddy.Willa was flustered and she didn’t want to sound like she was holding back so she blurted out, “He asked me out to lunch after the meeting in our office

Willa headed back up to the office and Tricia handed her a stack of memos. “Your dad said you could handle these. He left to go look after your mom this afternoon. He thought you would be back earlier so he could talk to you himself. Give him a call if you need something, otherwise I’ll be here as usual to help you as well.”Tricia noticed the garment bag and other bag that Willa carried and asked her if she could put it away for her. Willa handed it off. “Can I take a peek at what you bought?” Tricia asked.“Sure, it’s just an outfit for a dinner date that I have on Friday,” said Willa.“This sure is beautiful! Who is the lucky guy?” Tricia was fishing for more information.Willa hesitated before answering her. “I’m going out to a client dinner with Grey Langley. Please don’t tell anyone. After our lunch the other day the news about it was all over the place. You know me. I like to keep things low key.”“Definitely Willa! Mums the word,” Tricia winked at her and placed h

The remainder of the week flew by. Trigger slowly regained his strength and the vet was able to let him get back out into the pasture. Of course, the stablehand did a thorough sweep of the grounds to make sure that there weren’t any items he could eat that would cause him trouble again. The Thursday before the dinner party Grey called Willa up and chatted with her about some last minute details. He didn’t want to catch her off guard and since he didn’t know her temperament he didn’t want to cause a scene in front of his clients. “Willa, I know that we don’t know much about each other’s pasts so I just want to go ahead and give you a heads up that my ex-girlfriend is going to be attending this party. She works for my agency and is friends with my clients. Our relationship has been over for a year or so. I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable around her. I don’t think that she will bring anything up about it, but if she does you won’t be surprised now.” Willa was quiet for a wh
