A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Thirteen - A Punishing Kiss
Andrea’s POV I gasped with horror at finding myself in Zion’s arms, despite my efforts to keep him at bay. Why was he waiting in front of the door?“Leave me, Zion!” I thrashed furiously, desperate to place some distance between us. I was here to warn him, not to hug him!“What have I done? You’re the one who walked into my arms!” His eyes sparkled with mischief, infuriating me even more. Did he find this amusing?I wasn’t letting this opportunity go. Did he think I would blush and stammer at his flirty ways? The old Andrea who had a crush on him might have done that, but not me. I had learned my lesson the hard way. I would never fall for him again. “How would I know you’d be waiting for me right at the door with open arms? Desperate, aren’t you? No wonder your wife left you.” He released me as if my words hit him hard. His jaws clenched and I could see the annoyed look back on his face. Good enough! That’s how I wanted it between us. It would make me hate him even more. It would r
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Fourteen – Hunting For Information
Zion’s POV My lips burned with her touch for hours, even after she had left. I sat brooding over my reaction to Andrea every time I met her. Why did I always overreact to her? Why couldn’t I ever be normal around her? The kiss didn’t help my condition at all. In fact, it aggravated it. Now I craved her with an obsession and I knew I needed more than just a kiss from her. I seethed with jealousy to even think about her motive for coming here. Did she really think I would stay away from her? I wouldn’t in this lifetime! She was mine and I would win her at all costs. I didn’t repent for beating up the guy called Adrian. I didn’t know what equation Andrea had with him, but it gave me happiness to know he had left her. Did he really leave her? I had to find out for myself. Maybe then I would know what was stopping her from moving in with me. I walked out of the office and got into my car, determined to stalk Andrea Cromwell from tomorrow. That was the only way to know what she was up t
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Fifteen – Colliding With Him Everywhere
Andrea’s POV I had to leave Adrian with Kristina at home the next morning. Zayden was restless to attend school, and I dropped him at his pre-kindergarten on my way to work. With everything within walking distance from my home and office, it was quite convenient to keep track in between work. At the office, I was relieved to see we still had the project with us. Maybe Zion hadn’t got a whiff of it yet. I worked on the design all morning and by lunchtime I could complete the first draft and arrange for a client meeting. It pleased me immensely that I hadn’t given in to Zion’s pressure. Roberta came into the office with a pleased look on her face. “Andrea, there’s good news. We’ve bagged a renovation project for celebrity chef, Rick Salisbury’s restaurant, Rick’s Delights! This will make us famous!” My jaws dropped with surprise. Why would such a famous person want to work with me? “Oh, how did you get it?” “They called us, Andrea! Do you remember the last villa renovation project
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Sixteen - A Ray Of Hope
Andrea’s POV “Never! Stop stalking me, Zion.” I stormed into the elevator, furious at his question. What did he think me to be? I wasn’t a weakling to give in to his manipulation. I could fend for myself and fight it out.He followed me into the elevator, making me even more furious. “I won’t stop until you give in. So, why waste time?” I sucked in a deep breath to stay calm. “You’re wasting your time pursuing me. I’m not interested in you. Get out and stay out of my life.” The elevator stopped at my floor and I marched out. To my immense annoyance, he still followed me. “I see. So, who are you interested in now?” He grabbed my arm to stop me. I turned around to face him for the last time. This was getting too complicated now. I hadn’t expected him to pursue me to this level. Why was he doing it? Didn’t he have any important work to do?“No one! Can you leave me alone, Zion? I’m tired of this. The more you pressurize me, the more I’ll run from you. I am married to my business and
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Seventeen – Hurt By Her Rejection
Zion’s POV I drove over to the headquarters of the Concorde Group to attend the annual board meeting. It was something I couldn’t ignore, although I dreaded meeting Delia. She would definitely try to convince me to take over the reins of the business once again but as her puppet. Only she didn’t realize that I would never be her puppet. I would take over as CEO again only if she signed 20% more shares over to me. With a majority of the company shares in my name, I would have a clear advantage over her. For the last four days, my life has been a roller-coaster ride with no time for anything. After the massive disappointment on Saturday when Andrea skipped the get-together because of me, I realized my mistake. Her words echoed in my head all the time. I realized Andrea had rejected me! She had moved on from me! There was no place for me in her life! The realization hurt me a lot, and I spent the entire night seeking solace in my bottle of Jack Daniels. The next morning, I noticed t
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Eighteen – Delia’s Threat
Zion’s POV “If I die, I won’t let you live either!” I opened the door and walked in, leaving Delia seething outside. What did she think? Would I let her get away with what was rightfully mine? I smiled at all my employees, who were slogging hard to get the conference room ready for us. “Sir, do you need anything else?” asked my events manager, Genevieve Chloros, who had joined us eighteen months ago. Although I had a very brief association with her before stepping down as CEO, I was surprised to see her still sticking here. Delia hated the woman at first sight, and I was sure she would soon replace her. I inspected everything and gave her an appreciative nod when Delia stormed into the room. “Where are the name tags? I asked you to reserve specific seats for the board members. Why hasn’t it been done, Ms. Chloros?” She fumbled and looked completely at a loss. “I wasn’t aware, ma’am. I’ll do it right away.” The door opened and a few of the board members walked in before Genevieve
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Nineteen – Missing Him?
Andrea’s POVSix Months Later “Roberta, ask Mr. Johnson to meet me right away. I want him to email me the month’s updated accounts.” Dean Johnson was my finance manager who has been working with Ratio for the last four months. Ever since Zion returned my projects and disappeared from my life, sales had picked up and I was neck-deep at work. Yet not a moment passed by when I didn’t think about Zion. What would he be doing? How did he forget his wish to have me move in with him? The Zion I knew never gave up if he wanted something truly. Then how did he give up on me? “Sure, Andrea!” She walked out and after three minutes, Mr. Johnson came in. I had no time to ponder over what could have been and concentrated on the figures instead. “Ma’am, last month’s figures have broken all records. It’s been the best so far.” I nodded, but I frowned at the half payments received from a few incomplete projects. The work pressure was so much, that I had to build a design team to help me. Currently,
A Bittersweet Revenge - Fighting The Reckless Billionaire Chapter Twenty – Dealing With A Stubborn Zion
Andrea’s POV It was almost 10 o’clock when I wrapped my work at the office. I facepalmed when I realized I had forgotten to send Zayden and Adrian’s belongings to Cromwell Mansion. Now they all would be furious with me. It was well past their bedtime, anyway. Would they be expecting me? Maybe I could drop the stuff tomorrow morning on my way to work. I drove, wondering whether to go to Cromwell Mansion and face everyone’s disappointment in me or to go home and sleep. The latter sounded a better option, and I drove home. Maybe one night I could just relax and catch up on some sleep. Parking my car, I went up the elevator to my apartment, but a nagging sense of guilt crept into my heart. I should have picked up the twins from Grandpa’s house instead of dumping all my responsibilities on them. Maybe I should make it up to Danielle this weekend by inviting them to dinner at my place. I groaned at the thought of preparing dinner. Grandpa insisted on having home-cooked meals instead of
