Broken (The Dark Billionaire, #2) (2 page)

Benny lowered his voice. “So what happened, Jen? I thought you were fired and now, you’re back. I was really worried when you called me that day you know!”

Jennifer knew Benny would ask this question and had prepared something to say in advance.

“I’m so sorry for the trouble, Benny. Actually, it was a misunderstanding with the boss. As you know I’ve been working here for five years now and I thought it was time to ask Mr. Wilson for a pay rise.”

“During your vacation?”

“Actually, I asked before leaving and he said he would call me back. We had a little argument, but then, we came up with an arrangement.”

Benny raised an eyebrow and flashed a grin at Jennifer. “Hum, I see. An a
rrangement
, uh?”

Jennifer hit Benny’s shoulder playfully. “Don’t be silly. Come on, tell me what happened during these three weeks...”

Jennifer’s new romance with Bruce was still idyllic in every way, but the time he had available for her was nowhere near what she had expected. Indeed, the busy billionaire was often travelling due to his new joint venture with Japanese businessman Mr. Sakamura.

As a consequence, the time they had spent together had been limited to once per week only. Obviously, Jennifer was a little frustrated she couldn’t see Bruce as often as she wanted and deep inside, she was still pretty insecure about their new relationship.

After all, they had been dating for about three weeks only and even though he had been perfect in every way so far, there was a lot of mystery around this man.

Benny started to brief her about all the activities that occurred during her absence. At 10:00AM, she and Benny had their weekly meeting with Bruce and it took Jennifer about three hours to get back on track and sort out all her emails for the morning.

At lunchtime, she invited Benny to have a salad outside.

They both walked to the elevator, which was still empty, since they were at the last floor. Benny let her get in and followed quietly. Very quickly, the elevator was packed with employees going out to have lunch as well. Each time the doors opened, people moved as much as they could to let others get in. Everybody was very quiet except for two women chatting somewhere near the front. Jennifer couldn’t help, but hear the conversation.

“You know what? He did it again. He has a new one, but she’s not a model this time. Samantha is pretty sure about it: she’s from the office.”

“Samantha... is she the one who used to work in the previous company? How does she know?”

“Yes, it’s her. She’s one of the few who followed him here after he sold his last business. She said she was taking a walk when she recognized his limo and she saw a young woman getting inside. She’s pretty sure she recognized someone from this building.”

“Wow. So you mean the boss is... hum hum... with someone from the office? I thought this kind of things only happened in movies!”

The two women giggled. “Hell no, it happens in real life too! I think he couldn’t resist striking one more time. Come on, he’s always been a player, right? I wouldn’t say no if he approached me though!”

They giggled again. Jennifer felt her cheeks and her ears getting hot. There was no doubt they were talking about Bruce and his relationship with her. She wanted to slap these two stupid bitches.

She didn’t have the time to do it, though. The elevator stopped and its doors opened, releasing all the hungry employees like a honey bee colony.

As she walked out of the elevator, she tried to calm down and to look cool.

“Did you hear that, Benny?”

“Yeah, of course. It’s been the main topic of most conversations these days!”

“What? Why you didn’t tell me that this morning?”

Jennifer’s heart was about to explode.
Oh my God! Everybody knows already?

Benny raised his eyebrows and looked surprised. “Sorry, I thought you wanted me to bring you up to speed on work! I didn’t know you wanted to listen to gossip...”

Jennifer realized he was right. As a trainee, Benny probably wouldn’t consider sharing all these rumors with her. She kept silent for a few seconds, looking for something to say that made sense.

“Alright. How long have you been here?”

“About five months.”

“Okay, you approach six months, right? Now, there’s a rule you must know and you will never find it in any book. You have to pay attention to gossip. It’s like the pulse of the company, like its lifeblood.”

Benny’s mouth was dangling open, a look of disbelief on his face. “I thought cash flow was the lifeblood of a business?”

Damn, he’s too smart!
“Yes you’re right, but here I’m talking about the company’s social life. It’s like the mood of the company, if you prefer.”

Benny frowned. “Hum, I see.”

Jennifer didn’t want him to think too long and was afraid he would make another smart comment. She quickly focused on what she wanted to know. “So tell me more about what we heard in the elevator. What’s the whole story?”

“Well, as you heard there’s a rumor saying that Mr. Wilson is dating someone in this building. Actually, nobody saw them together, but the young woman has been seen getting in his limo.”

“So that’s only speculation! Maybe it was business?”

“True, but it seems like it’s not the first time it happened. He has kind of a reputation. We all know he likes to date super models, but he also has a thing for secretaries. Some people say it might be a secret fantasy, or something. No offense to you of course. Anyway, people who used to work for him in his previous company say he used to have an affair with one of them and it was pretty ugly.”

“Pretty ugly? For who? Ugly like what?”

“I have no idea. I don’t even know if it’s all true, you know.” Benny paused and hesitated. “But I’d say, as much as I respect Mr. Wilson, it fits the character... I mean, if I was in his position, I would probably do the same!”

Jennifer lost her appetite. She was terribly confused and felt desperately insecure. She wanted to call Bruce right away and hear his voice. She wanted to ask him if he really loved her and wanted to be in his arms right now.

As she looked at the busy street, she saw a familiar face getting out of a black car, with a grey hood. It was Jack, Bruce’s chauffeur, opening the door of the Rolls Royce Ghost.

For a second, she thought she would be able to see Bruce pretty soon and felt happy.

Instead of Bruce, Jennifer saw a pair of black stilettos, and two long curved legs getting out of the luxury car. In fact, Jack was opening the door to a tall, slim Asian woman wearing a tight black dress, in her late twenties, or early thirties maximum.

A woman so beautiful she was sure she never saw her before.

A woman so elegant she was definitely the type that Bruce would love.

A woman so sexy that Jennifer instinctively recognized the threat she represented...

I
t was 8:00 PM when Jennifer finished her day.

That whole afternoon, her emotions had been running high and she had been unable to focus properly. Bruce had been away for the day, and she hadn’t heard from him until 7:00 PM.

He simply sent her a text message, asking her if her first day back to work was fine, and saying that she could meet him at his mansion that night.

Jennifer couldn’t wait to see him, but she had mixed feelings. Even though she missed Bruce and wanted to spend time with him, she was also very nervous.

Indeed, she couldn’t help, but think about what she had heard that day.

All the comments the two women had made in the elevator and Benny’s confirmation were spinning in her head. She didn’t know why, but she felt worried. She felt threatened by something she couldn’t control.

Jennifer’s grandmother had always warned her about gossip, since she was a teen. She used to say that it was too easy to ruin someone’s reputation by spreading lies. She said it was better to ignore the rumors and to seek the truth yourself.

As much as she could, Jennifer tried to apply what she learned from Margareta, but pretending she didn’t care or, didn’t give too much importance to what people were saying about Bruce was nearly impossible.

She wanted to know the truth, but was scared at the same time to learn something she didn’t want to know.

When she received Bruce’s message, she decided to stop thinking about it and to clear her mind before going to meet him. They didn’t spend as much time together as she would have expected, and she didn’t want to ruin the few moments of privacy they had.

She was supposed to go home first, where Jack would be waiting for her. When she left the office, it was exactly 8:00 PM and she calculated that she would be home in thirty minutes. When she arrived, it was already pretty dark. Jack was waiting outside the car and nodded when he saw her.

“Hello Jack, give me five minutes please. I need to pick up a few things and I’ll be back.”

Jennifer went to her apartment and quickly packed for the night and for the next working day. When she went back to the car this time, coming from a different angle, she noticed it was the Rolls Royce. Despite her resolution not to think about the gossip of the day, her doubts were triggered once again.

Indeed, she remembered the mysterious and sexy Asian lady getting out of the exact same car earlier that day and started to think again.

Who is she? What was she doing in Bruce’s car? Business? I thought he only used the Rolls Royce for private matters...

“Jack, have you seen Mr. Wilson today?”

“No Ms. Stuart. I think he spent the whole day with Mr. Sakamura.”

“Mr. Sakamura is in New York?”

“Yes Ms. Stuart. He will be here for a few days with his family.”

“Wife and kids?”

“Mr. Sakamura is not married.”

“Old, fat and ugly businessman?”

“Quite the opposite actually. He’s the Asian equivalent of Mr. Wilson. Mid-thirties, handsome, athletic, and wealthy. He’s here with his brother and his sister, who intend to invest in real estate.”

Jennifer felt a sudden relief.
That woman I saw today was probably Mr. Sakamura’s sister! God, I’m so paranoid! I really need to relax...

B
ruce was in his office when Jennifer arrived. He was standing in front of a floor to ceiling bookcase, flipping through the pages of a book.

The high definition flat screen TV on the wall behind him was turned on, but muted. On his right, a large wooden staircase was leading to an entire home theatre upstairs, with a bar and a Jacuzzi.

When he saw her, Bruce walked to his desk. He seemed tired and worried.

Jennifer, a large smile on her face, jumped in his arms. “Hey, what’s wrong? You’re not happy to see me? You didn’t miss me?”

“Of course I did. I’m just... a little overwhelmed, there’s a lot going on right now.”

Jennifer was now massaging his shoulders. “Ooh baby. You work too much. Maybe you need to relax...” As she was talking, she was biting and sucking his ear-lobe.

Bruce moaned and immediately grabbed her ass. She looked at his pants, and the sight of his huge bulge was enough to kindle her desire. As she slid her hand in his underwear, she could feel his heated and hardened length.

Slowly, she started to stroke him and Bruce looked at her. His pupils were dilated and his eyes were filled with lust. Jennifer felt her panties moistening with arousal.
It’s crazy. All he has to do is look at me to make me soaking wet
.
Oh my God, I want him. Now!

All she wanted to do now was unzip his pants and feel her lips around his thick hard cock, as deep as possible. Breathing heavily, Jennifer kneeled down and frenetically freed his erection from his fly.

His massive rod was now proudly facing her face, throbbing with a little precum dripping from the slit of his head.

Jennifer caressed his balls and looked at him from under her eyelashes, sending him her naughtiest look. Her mouth was watering and her eager channel was filled with her woman’s juices. She parted her lips and extended her tongue, before impaling her face on his delicious cock.

Bruce grunted instantly and Jennifer moaned loudly, truly satisfied to please her man and feeling horny as hell to have his swollen head inside her throat. She continued to suck him luxuriously and tenderly for ten minutes, stroking and rubbing his pole at the same time, while caressing his heavy balls.

Then Bruce grabbed her by the arms, telling her to stand up. He flipped her and pushed her breasts down against his desk. He pushed up her skirts over her thighs and tossed her wet panties on the floor.

Jennifer’s ass was now bare, her legs spread apart with her dripping pussy completely exposed to him. She closed her eyes and waited for his wet tongue to lick her throbbing clit and his lips to suck her delicate folds.

But instead, Bruce took her by surprise and engulfed the whole length of his rod inside her slick passage, making her scream loudly. “Mmmm yeah!! Uhh yeah baby, I’ve been waiting for this for days...” Bruce completely buried his thick cock inside her wet pussy, spreading her walls wider with ease.

“Not too loud! It’s still early and I don’t think we’re alone yet!”

Jennifer looked at him and grinned. “The room isn’t soundproof? I’m disappointed you didn’t think about it...”

Bruce smiled and without a word, slapped her ass cheeks and pounded her even harder.

The pleasure was agonizing. Jennifer used her arms as a cushion for her head and bit her lips to stop screaming. Before long, she felt a rush of burning heat throughout her entire body.

“Don’t stop! I’m cumming...” Jennifer could feel his firm lower abs slicked with sweat rubbing and pressing against her round ass. Bruce continued to ram his iron pole into her pussy until Jennifer fell uncontrollably into a strong orgasm.

The wild movements of her hips combined with her pussy squeezing Bruce’s swollen cock pretty quickly made him grunt and release his hot cum inside her deep center.

He grabbed her breasts and collapsed against her sweaty back. “Let’s take a bath. Follow me...”

Bruce grabbed a remote control, but instead of pointing it to the TV, he pressed a button toward the staircase.
