Chapter 6. Rumors
Ava closed the house door where she was staying, leaned against it, and stood there thinking. She hadn't even been working for Hoffmann for a month, and already her life was upside down, the first time she'd ever felt this way about a man.
Ava nodded quickly and started walking towards her room, but Yany stopped her.- Are you all right? -she heard the voice of her partner. - Still not talking to Alice? -Ava looked at the young woman next to her.
-I've been trying to talk to her, but apparently, she's determined to avoid me, for I don't know how much longer. -Yany made an "Oh" grimace.
-I'm sorry, do you want me to talk to her so they can make peace? -Ava quickly denied it.
-I'll work it out. Thank you for being so concerned. -was about to go back to the room when Yany stopped her again.
-I know I don't care, but you should know that something is going on at the hotel. Are you aware of the rumors among the employees? -Ava raised her eyebrows.

Björn leaned back in the black leather armchair in Nicoletta's office as she went to the drinks cabinet to pour him a drink. She walked over to him and handed him the crystal glass when she was done.-"So," Nicoletta began as she sat down in another of the black leather armchairs, crossed one leg over the other, and looked at Björn, who expected her to speak immediately. -The young woman you bought at the auction is your assistant. -Björn stiffened.-Yes," he said, then took a long sip of his drink, his eyes on her, and when he finished, he spoke. -I see my mother has brought you up to date.-There's nothing wrong with that, especially when she and I are working towards a common goal.- Do you trust my mother that much? -Nicoletta arched an eyebrow, then narrowed her eyes for a moment. She took a discreet breath and let it out before taking a sip of her drink. When she finished, she looked at the man sitting across from her.-We had

Ava was sitting on the carpet in her room, thinking carefully about the confrontation with Alice in the dark. It would be uncomfortable to continue living with her under the same roof. Even her words that she had gotten that job because of her made her feel shitty. He thought for a moment that he could finish the month and with that money go back to the city and look for a new job, then he thought about what he had to set aside for the deposit and the rent of an apartment, he closed his eyes and leaned his head against the iron base of the bed.-The cell phone vibrated on the nightstand closest to her. Ava just looked at the light against the ceiling. It kept shaking. She knew who he was, if she kept approaching him like that, the rumors would grow, and it would be hell to work. All that for her was new. She didn't know how to fix the situation. That's why she wanted to talk once and for all with Björn, put a line and make it clear that she was not a toy. The cell phone

Nicoletta was a little tense about how Björn had gotten, and she knew he struggled daily with his anger issues, which is why he had hesitated to show the evidence that very night, but it was better at once to get Christine and Bruno off his back.-Tell me something, and what happened at the charity dinner? -Björn frowned and understood what I was asking.-You must know by now, don't you and my mother talk about everything?-Well, I just wanted you to tell me. -answered, arching that perfect eyebrow again. -Indeed, we are up to date with everything.- Does that mean you've got her up to speed on what's going on with me and my assistant? -She pursed her lips tightly, gave herself some time before answering that question, took a sip and enjoyed it, her eyes fixed on the crystal glass for a couple of seconds and then looked at Björn.-I'm nobody's babysitter, Björn, if that's what you want to know. What you do at the hotel doe
The Billionaire's Club Chapter 10. Feeling
Ava tossed and turned in her bed, the image of Björn wouldn't leave her alone, she looked at the clock on the bedside table and discovered that it was barely two in the morning, she stirred again and then sat on the edge of the bed, she let out a long sigh.-Björn, Björn, what are you making of me? -He put a hand to his chest and felt his heart pounding. His thoughts aligned with it. -You're crazy, Ava Elizabeth Gray. You are...-she got out of bed and put on a change of clothes to go out, reached for her coat as it was getting quite cold, sneaking out of the house without anyone noticing, including the 7/24 surveillance she had discreetly from Björn.Ava prevented anyone from seeing her went up to one of the hotel elevators. The elevator doors opened before her on the top floor. As she got out, she heard how the doors closed behind her. She hugged herself and went over and over what she would say to Björn. As she was thinking about it, the door

-Well, what's the favorite son doing in town? I didn't know you were in the city..." commented Björn. Bruno grinned from ear to ear.-I've solved my problems, I'm back. -Björn frowned for a moment.- Weren't you going to be gone for six months? You haven't even got the month you left me in charge.-I will not yet take over what I entrusted to you. Our father has other plans for me before I go back to running the hotel and the club in these months. -When he finished saying "Club", Bruno smiled cruelly, and Björn knew it, he immediately assumed that by emphasizing it, it was because of the monthly millionaire auctions with the women, but what even he didn't know was that Björn would put an end to that.- And do you know why Mrs. Laurent is at this meeting? -Björn finished the question and looked at Christine, who arched an eyebrow, then looked at Bruno.-I had Laurent included in the plans I will be working on.Bjö
The Billionaire's Club Chapter 12. Objective
In the morning, Ava had her gaze lost in some fixed point of the cappuccino machine that had been installed weeks ago in the employee cafeteria of the hotel, the beep of the same device made her come out of her thoughts for a moment, she removed the glass and turned to look for a free table where to drink it before going up to the main office and start the workday. That morning she tried to apply a little make-up under her eyes to avoid showing the lines that were easily formed by not having a good rest."Where could she have gone at that hour?" she mentally asked herself. The image of Christine made her lips press together, "That woman..." she denied as she closed her eyes. When she opened them, Thomas, Björn's head of security, was entering the cafeteria -it was her, and two tables at the back of the place were occupied with waitresses- their gazes met, Thomas walked up to her.-Good morning, Miss Gray. Ava smiled half-heartedly.-You know you can tell me
The Billionaire's Club Chapter 13. Unexpected confession
"-And the party's just getting started, brother."Björn's words towards Bruno had ignited anger, one was determined to put on a mask before them so he could continue with his plans for revenge, and the other, felt offended why he was being taken away from what he had worked so hard for these years, pretending to be his own father's favorite son and giving in to everything he asked of him so it would be easier to cede power to him, but, "At what point has everything changed?" Bruno asked himself that question repeatedly as he looked into his brother's eyes.-If that's all, I'm retiring. -Bruno announced at the same time that he turned his gaze to his father, who was still in bed observing every movement of each of his children. -As far as I can see, it won't be necessary for Christine to come in, will it? -Bruno grunted, and Anton denied.-Let her in. -Bruno approached the door, opened it, and called Christine, who appeared seconds later. Bruno closed the do
The Billionaire's Club Chapter 14. Possibilities
Currently- And how was your day? -he asked to break the silence between the two of them. She just withdrew her gaze to another place and stepped back. Björn noticed her red cheeks, a gesture that, for him, was sexy. What did she think seeing him like that? Did she feel something? Did she care? All questions ran through his head as he looked at Ava, trying to describe the day to her.-I think you'll have a complaint from me to Mrs. Laurent. -Björn raised his eyebrows but then withdrew them when he felt the pinch of pain.- What? Why? -He asked quickly, motioned for her to take a seat in the single chair. She sat down and watched as he stood and started to walk around the room until he stopped to listen to Ava. -Tell me...-Susan tried to provoke me. -Ava didn't want to remember the lousy comment about her body. -I answered him, and I don't doubt he complained from his reaction. -Björn frowned in a fleeting frown. His face sti
