Love With My Billionaire Boss novel Chapter 12

Intimacy between playboys

"So what you are trying to say is that Quinn left?" Jake asked amusedly. He was pleasantly surprised when Henry showed up at his cafe. How long had it been? A year or two? Whatever, he had thought there was something serious bothering his close buddy. The expression on his face when he came into his office was alarming. Jake had suspended his work and came down with him for a drink. But this? How was this important? Henry saw the look on his friend's face and knew what he was thinking. "You don't understand; I'm not sure if I can do without her" He gulped down his glass of tequila. Jake nodded slowly,he understood. "Are you screwing her? Man,what about your fiancee?" Jake knew he wasn't a faithful type,but Henry was different. Though Henry played with different girls,it was girls from wealthy homes. A maid? It sounded ridiculous... "What about her? She can go to hell for all I care" Henry slurred.

"You guys are engaged,you know you need her" Jake wasn't sure about the game his friend was playing at. "Then Father can marry her. See,I'm tired of all this shit. I can't whoever I want to anymore. The reason? I have a godforsaken fiancee" Henry clenched his fist in frustration. "Have you tried looking for her?" Jake asked. "Already did, no trace..." Henry replied with his head bowed. Jake could see that the maid's disappearance had an effect on his friend. But what could he do? "Let's go to a beach; you know have some fun with some beauties" Jake suggested.

"No,I have to get going" Henry stood up and left the cafe. Jake stared at his departing figure and sighed. He could understand his friend's pain to some extent; but he couldn't understand how a maid's disappearance could affect him so much. He shrugged and went back to his office. He had piles of work to tend to....

"Good morning President" Her assistant greeted respectfully pulling the door of the car open. "Morning Avie, what's my schedule?" Quinn got into the car. "Mama.." A tiny voice called out from the balcony. Quinn smiled and waved at her. She opened the door and allowed the girl in. "Mama, ji you want to yimme behind?" Emelda asked in a childish voice. Quinn pinched her nose fondly, "No,how can I leave my little pumpkin behind?" Emelda giggled as she buried her head in her mother's bosom. "Start the car" Quinn instructed. "Yes President" Avie nodded and began driving. "What's my schedule?" She asked again." You have an appointment with the CEO of Luther Corporation, and you have a flight to catch by noon" Her assistant reported. "Okay" Quinn nodded and gazed at the little face resting peacefully. Emelda was her daughter. Seven years ago,she gave birth to her. It was a tough battle; she had a CS ,in order to successfully give birth to her little pumpkin..
