“Yes, flowers. Thank you, Melissa.” She left us in the room.

“Dillon Xander, giving a woman flowers? That’s something new,” Arnoldo commented, sounding a bit offended.

“Let’s leave him alone,” Mikkel interjected.

“I see you want to be unemployed this year, Reyes,” I grumbled. “Also, where’s that file I asked you for?”

“There’s no background. I’m going to have to dig deeper.”

“There’s always a background, dig deeper.”

I had asked Mikkel to deliver them to the respective place, he and I knew where, and then told him to come back to the meeting.

Returning to business, I asked, “I’m paying 10 million dollars. What’s my expected profit rate this year?”

We discussed potential profits and payouts, with Bryce getting a smaller share due to the NDA and contractual agreement we both signed.

Bryce, who had remained quiet, suddenly voiced his agreement, bringing light humor to our discussion.

“Lovely. Well then, here’s to a venture with my oldest friend,” Bryce teased which caused us all to let out small cues of laughter. Aside from working together, we were a friend group. The only persons missing were Ronan, Alexander and Lucio and they were otherwise occupied.

“Sound goo— good morning,” I said.

There she stood, dressed in a red pencil dress that accentuated her curves, fitting snugly on her body. Her shoes appeared to add an extra two, maybe three inches to her height, and her hair was down—I loved when she let her curls out. It’s mesmerizing how stunning she looks, and it’s incredibly arousing. Just the sight of her sends a rush of desire straight to my dick.

“Good morning everyone,” she said, sharing a smile.

“I’m sure you’re familiar with everyone here except for Mikkel but for introductory purposes, Mikkel is my driver, you already know about Bryce and I’m sure you’ve met with Arnoldo, my lead attorney.”

“Yes, I’m familiar and it’s nice to meet you Mikkel and nice to see all of you again.”

“Nice to meet you Ms. Willis,” Mikkel said, turning to face her.

“I just came to let you know that I was here:”

“Alright. Send over the documents to HR and get started on your day.”

She walked out and Bryce, as well as Arnoldo started exchanging glances with each other.

“You’re fucking her?” Arnoldo asked.

“No.” Technically, I didn’t lie. She and I haven’t fucked but the real reason I said no was because she didn’t want anyone else to know— not yet. And as much as it’s against my better judgement, I respect her wishes.

“Interesting,” Arnoldo said.

“If you men will excuse me,” Arnoldo said, “I have paperwork to finish.” Bryce and Mikkel shortly followed.

With the room cleared, I was finally able to get my day started. It had been an interesting morning.

Azzaria

I got flowers. Again. This time, the bouquet was even larger, and the note sweeter. I could definitely get used to this.

Opening an incognito tab on my laptop, I searched for “Dillon Xander.”

I found the same articles I’ve been seeing for the past month. One’s on his wealth, how he achieved it, but nothing about his family life, except for brief mentions of his grandfather’s death and legacy.

All the stuff, I already know.
