The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 30- Wherever You Go, I Go
Grayson said nothing to Amberleigh and avoided eye contact when she left the bathroom a short while later. On outside appearances, one would think a man who could have any woman in the city he wanted, and probably had fucked well into the double digits if not higher, wouldn’t blush over stories about measuring dicks or catching a woman masturbating. But Amber knew looks could be deceiving and doubted the billionaire’s count was very high actually.First of all, he’d been faithfully engaged to Courtney Van Tessin from the ages of twenty to twenty-two and had started dating her at the age of eighteen. From the way Leo had described Grayson in their youth, he was more a nerdy, late bloomer. He may not have even lost his virginity to a girl before he started dating that cunt. Then there was that surrogate in Manhattan which came the year before Amber and ended badly. So who knew what other women came after Courtney and until Amber?Leo had told Amber without shame he’d lost his V Card at
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 31- I Don't Think You Should Be Alone Right Now
Amberleigh watched Leo and Grayson going back and forth for another minute or two in their argument. She took a deep breath and tried to mentally prepare herself, to figure out the right words to say. Cori was like a fly on the wall, sinking into the background, cleaning up the area, and trying to stay out of the way. But if Giovanni Costa trusted her and her family to keep secrets, then so did Amber. Besides it was a little too fucking late to worry about that now anyway.Amber cleared her throat, “I need to tell you both something. I think you should sit down for this Grayson. It’s not easy to say.”Her eyes were already burning. Both men turned to look at her, though Leo’s expression was less hostile than the scowl on the billionaire’s face. Even Grayson’s body language interpretated he wasn’t open to listening to her. But she would not be intimidated or back down.“The decision has already been made. You are not moving back into the penthouse under any circumstances so there’s no
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 32- You're Not Fucking Her!
Amberleigh wasn’t above using the baby card as Grayson had done over and over lately. It did seem to soften him like butter in her hands. She could see the way his throat bobbed with the force of his swallow and hear the way his words came out softer.“All the more reason to keep you, Leo, and baby far away from this fucked up mess. You’ve seen what these people are capable of Amber.”“All the more reason for us to stick together Grayson. United we stand, divided we fall. Keep your enemies close right?”“I’m not going to agree to this. I won’t allow you to put yourself and our baby in harm’s way. No, I’ll return to Courtney. Feed her some story about the kidnappers letting me go in the park. I’ll upgrade the security system in the penthouse. And I’ll watch her like a fucking hawk. She’s bound to slip up sometime, especially since she’ll think the kidnappers fucked her and Hugo over. Desperate and angry people make mistakes. And it may just help me get to the bottom of this business a
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 33- Let Bygones Be Bygones?
Amberleigh wouldn’t say that Leo was a pushover exactly, but the chef had a problem telling her no and was often easy to convince of things that she suggested. Just like with Grayson, Leo certainly didn’t like the idea of her moving back into the penthouse. But he also knew Amber well enough by now, that she wouldn’t change her mind. Arguing with her would be a waste of time. He just accepted it as a fact as soon as she told him their plans to return to Grayson’s high-rise under the guise of a fucked over kidnapping and post an emergency appendectomy. Grayson insisted that Leo take it slow as the chef was immediately ready to get dressed and get the hell out of dodge. But first things first, Leo would need to get up for the first time since his surgery without falling and Amber and Grayson needed a learning session with Cori on how to take care of L-Dawg. Because the home health nurse or the Doc wouldn’t be able to care for Leo 24/7, so it would fall to his penthouse
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 34- We Don't Know Who We Can Trust
Amberleigh decided to be the one with the bigger balls in the room and extend the olive branch so to speak. She held out her hand towards the surly billionaire. “I, Amberleigh Dubois, do solemnly swear to let past grievance go and try to the best of my ability to not hold any grudges or throw the past in Grayson Andre Godwin’s face.” Grayson scoffed and hesitated. He left Amber hanging a bit. Leo cleared his throat and narrowed his eyes at his friend. “This is ridiculous,” said Grayson through gritted teeth, “but fine!” He shook Amber’s hand quickly. “Say it. You must say the words to make it count,” she said. “I, Grayson Godwin do solemnly swear to the best of my ability to let past grievances go and not throw the past in Amberleigh Dubois’ face. There I said it. Are you happy?” “Close enough. And I will be happy. After I get some more coffee and that bastard and his cunt spawn are in prison getting where they belong.” “No more caffeine. Our baby will be born addicted to that
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 35- Unwelcome Home
It went without saying that Giovanni did not like his daughter’s plan to move into the penthouse with the evil woman out to become the sole heir to The Godwin fortune. He voiced his concerns for her safety and that of the rightful unborn heir inside her belly. Grayson broke his brooding silence to lay out the plan and vow to keep Amber and the baby safe. Leo made the same vow, and Giovanni would certainly be holding them both to it. He also reminded his daughter she could contact him anytime she needed help and extended that invitation to Leo and Grayson as well. Like he was the neighborhood friendly drug dealer out to do the occasional good deed for those he cared for. It seemed he now considered Grayson and Leo a member of the family. Amber tried to steel herself and fight down the moment of panic when they first pulled into the back lot of Preeminence Tower. She wasn’t afraid of the cunt per say, but rather of her nasty connections if Amber fucked this up. She was extra emotional
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 36- You'll Always Have A Home Here
Amberleigh and Grayson found Leo right where they’d left him in the back hallway with the bags scattered around his feet. Grayson immediately bent down to help his friend up from the bench when Amber crossed her arms and shot the billionaire an icy gaze.“I take it by the lack of screaming it went well,” said Leo.“As well as can be expected. Let’s get you to your room Leo. The nurse is due to arrive in an hour,” said Grayson.“Should you be doing that? Lifting him up with a broken rib?” asked Amber.He sighed as Leo gave him a concerned look.“Those bastards busted up your face and broke your rib? Why didn’t you tell me that?” asked Leo.“Oh, he didn’t tell me that either Leo. Anything else you’re hiding Grayson?”“Actually, I have two cracked ribs and a hairline fracture to my left cheekbone. My right eye socket is also cracked. All of which will heal on their own. Nothing to make a fuss over especially compared to what Leo is going through. It’s not important. Nothing ice and time
The Proposal (Book 3 of The Arrangement series) Chapter 37- Some Pain Is Meant To Be Felt
Leo napped for most of the evening as Amberleigh started to feel cabin fever while cooped up in his room. The fact Grayson was out there with his cunt wife who wanted him dead didn’t help matters. Amber knew the heiress was unlikely to make another move against her husband so soon or with so many witnesses present, but still she couldn’t help but be anxious as fuck.To pass the time she alternated between watching Leo sleep and scrolling social media. Usually, she could cheer herself up by trolling the pages of the girls who worked at The Cobra Club. But none of them came through with any scandalous post which had incited comment cat fights for her viewing pleasure.She hesitated on Ebony’s page. Now was as good as time as any to try and fix things with the only true friend Amber had left. A couple days ago Ebony had confronted Amber at The Cobra Club, hurt Amber hadn’t told her she was back in town. They got into an argument and Amber walked away leaving things so fucked up between t
