Billionaire's Bounty Cost Of Love And Revenge novel Chapter 54

“Thate it when you’re pacing around…” Taylor began, “And can we do something about your dingy apartment? Do we really have to meet her

I stopped in my tracks, “I’m sorry, Tayler Simmons, I can’t afford pricey hotels for us to stop for a chat. When I was with ivy, she had no problem handling

that…

“Oh, no! That’s not gonna be me, honey. That kind of foolishness is Ivy’s forte, not pot to do better about our meeting place. That is, if you still want to win her over”

the replied. “If you really want us to continue meeting you’ve

“Well, I don’t know how I’m supposed to win her over if you won’t use the one weapon we have against them!” I yelled. “They are getting closer You sw them at that fashion show? How did it feel watching them together? Being all lovey–dowy with each other, how did it make you feel?”

She slowly broke into a smile, “I don’t care for either of them, Max. I don’t have feelings for Asher Starling, I just like the idea of him. He’s a hot man with a lot of money and is married to hy. Of course I want him for myself, but that’s all it is. You, on the other hand, it must hurt to see your lover in another’s arms, holding him, kissing him…

I charged towards her and hit the wall behind her head. “Don’t say another word!” I yelled aloud. “If you would use what we have against them, they would have grown apart. I wouldn’t have to be subjected to the pictures of them together!”

The smile on her face widened. “Oh, don’t be so small–minded, Max. Can you not see the bigger picture?” she asked. “You really cannot see how this will be effective for us in the long run?”

I didn’t. I was blinded by my anger, infuriated by all the pictures of by and Asher plastered all over the media. People were gushing over how cuts they

were. “No.”

She shook her head. “You’re acting just like how you did that night. Too scared to act right. You were fidgety and almost messed up the plan__”

I exhaled deeply, my mind wandered back to that night. That crazy night where we made that daring plan and executed it an hour later

Taylor had called me at 5:20 pm, “Hello Max,” she greeted me in her usual singsong voice

“Hello, baby, what’s up?”

There was a long pause on the other end. I could almost picture the disgust on her face

“Never, ever call me that”

1sighed and massaged my temples. “Okay, what is it?”

“So, I just had a brilliant plan right now, and you have to come right now for us to make it happen…”

The excitement was clear in her voice. I sat upright, “I’m listening…”

“We are going to kidnap Asher Sterling tonight…

My eyes grew impossibly wide, and my mouth fell open, “I hope you’re joking because that’s the most stupid plan ever! Are you trying to get us arrested? I said I wanted by back. I didn’t imply I wanted to lose my freedom while at it.”

“You have 30 minutes to be here. If you’re not, then…” She trailed off. I could hear the click on the other end. Just like she promised, the address popped in later. It was the address of a popular club in the city, with lots of smiling emojis.

I stared at the text for a long while, wondering if something was actually wrong with Taylor, I was contemplating terminating whatever relationship we shared. Maybe I should just ghost her, thought to myself. She was deranged, but despite all the warnings in my head, found myself dashing out of my house and rushing to her.

Chapter 54

Maybe it was curiosity that prished me. I wanted to see how she planned to kidnap a billionaire all by herself from a crowded mom. My head was spinning with theseries, each one carer than the last, trying to figure out how she intended to pull off such a feat. Nothing could think

A hostage situation? The police department would be swarming the place in any minute. There was also the issue of his security detail Who cost casually pluck out a billionaire from a crowded club without going unnoticed 11 was batting all of these thoughts internally when arrived of the club

I waited outside in my parked car for a moment before I could summon the courage to tee Taylor, I’m here. There was no ponse. I sat there waiting for a very long time, I didn’t want to go in

Whatever she had planned, I didn’t want to be in the middle of it if the shit hit the fan, I’d be far away from the mess, at least. I didn’t know how much time passed as I sat in that parked car contemplating my life decisions. Then a message from her popped in, Where are you?

My heart skipped a beat, and then I replied, Parked across the street.

y screen. I read the message a couple of times, trying to wrap my head around it. My “South entrance” Those were the simple words that flashed on my heart was pounding hard on my chest. Was she there with a gun to his head? Were her goons dragging out an erratic Asher? Was he in a body bag?

Beads of perspiration formed on my forehead. It took me a while before I got out of the car and rushed to the south entrance. I saw them from afar, and was stunned. It was nothing like I had imagined.

Tayler had her usual bored expression on her face. Asher had his hand around her neck, but he was not in a relaxed stance it looked like she was supporting the bulk of his weight. He looked like he was heavily wasted.

She spotted me as I approached them, the bored look on her face turned into a frown, “What took you so long?” she asked through gritted teeth,

I glanced nervously at Asher, “I’m sorry. I needed a moment to think about the bombshell you dropped on words were laced with sarcasm.

“All of this could have gone to shit at any

I glanced around, but the people in the area were too preoccupied to pay us any attention. I stole a glance at Asher, who still looked completely out of it “Quiet down! He can hear us.” I said in hushed tones
