The Book Of You And I

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

Nathaniel Stone

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.

Meet Kyle and Audrey

KYLE'S POV

(A poor guy)

I sang whole-heartedly..

Because It is what i love the most,

what i almost cannot do without,

the only thing that gives me Joy

since there's nothing and no one else ..

that can give me this happiness except;

MUSIC.

🎶The moment I met you for the very first time

🎶I remember that I'm out of breath

🎵Maybe you've heard it and still remember the day I was upset

🎶I really like it when I hear your voice

🎵But I like it better when we walk together

🎶Yeah, there was a time, there was a day when I loved you with all my heart.

🎵You are my first love everytime

🎶I'll wait for you untill the spring snow comes

🎵I thought I was drunk that night 'cos my heart was really strange and the wind blew.

🎵That night I was so sad and stumbled.

🎶You are my first love everytime

🎶Sometimes I feel like love is lonely and my life is always hard.

🎶I knew it from the day we spent together, that; 🎵 there was a day I loved you with all my heart...

"Careless woman! " I heard my Dad yelled at my Mom.

Oh! Not again.

Despite the fact that I was so engrossed with my music even with a earpiece in my both ears, they still succeeded in interrupting me and making me miss a line then I skipped more lines.

I sang as if I were in love with someone but I wasn't and I haven't even been but yet the title of song I was singing, which I composed - (my first song ) is 'First love'

"Bring it on! I'm prepared for you! " My Mom yelled back at him.

Arrrgh! I stood up, walked to my door and slammed it. It's gonna reduce their noise at least.

I can't do anything to stop them, I mean I've tried severally but it eventually turned out abortive.

So I would rather just leave them and mind my business.

Well they are part of my business too.

AUDREY's POV

"Surprise!!" My Mom exclaimed as she untied the piece of cloth which she used to cover my face - my eyes precisely.

"Where are we mommy? " I asked, surprised..

Staring at the beautiful environment...The sitting room.

"Mo..mom" I muttered.
