A Year With The Billionaire

Jayden’s POV

Loud music blasts into my ears the moment I step into the club.

The last time I came here was long before Helena died. I usually frequent this place just to have fun with my friends and with new business partners and clients. This is where we come for relaxation after days of hard work.

But I stopped coming, just like I stopped every other thing that interested me since Helena died.

I stopped being friends with almost all the guys that made up the Billionaire’s Club and the Private Member's Club. I pushed all of them away but Gabriel wouldn't budge.

Coming back here after several years of being away, a wave of nostalgia hits me hard as I remember all that we shared in this same club with different business-minded men who have come from different backgrounds with one sole aim; succe I love being a part of the club because of their thirst for more wealth, power and more success. Every one of us wanted tc keep topping the rankings of the billionaire members in New York. Some sentences are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on .

Exhaling deeply, I look up as I venture further into the club, glancing around for Gabriel. We planned to meet her so he c: find me a girl to talk to about the contract and the conditions.

1 just hope it will go well and I won't have to deal with a bitch.

I remember Isabella's rejection and to be honest, I was hurt a bit. I was tempted to fire her but I can’t go through the process of looking for another Personal Assistant with this heavy workload. Besides, Isabella is hardworking and she is g00d at what she does.

She would have been the best girl for the job. But I don't want to be paranoid. I will look for another girl to do the job for me and after a year, that will be all.

I spot Gabriel in the same VIP section we used to sit in and discuss before moving upstairs where the members of the Private Members meet, discuss, have fun, play games, and go home with ladies to warm their bed.

I was not the type to go home with a lady because Helen was always at home waiting for me to come back home. She is anti-social and she hates it when I attend the meeting every weekend.

Most of the members of our club are into the Mafia and that was why she hated the idea of going with me or even meetin any of them.

I sigh as I approach Gabriel's table. I notice there are two women beside him, laughing and drinking with him.

I recognize the first woman as his wife, Sabrina but the other woman is not someone I know.

Gabriel looks up and he beams in happiness. He waves at me, making the girls turn to see me close by.

I walk faster, ignoring the irritation in my stomach at the large crowd and the loud music.

I want to get done with all of this and be out of here.

Gabriel stands up to shake my hand and we hug briefly.

I nod at his wife and the other lady in greeting before sitting opposite them.

“You came late”, Grabriel shouts so he can be heard above the loud music.

I nod, flashing him an apologetic smile.

He points towards the girl beside Sabrina who is eyeing me from head to toe, examining my looks and flashing me a seductive smile. “This is Eunice, Sabrina’s friend. She is interested in your offer”

Really? I arch my brows at her, surprised that Gabriel has gotten to work so fast.

I never thought he would find someone for me before I came, 1 was thinking we would sit together and watch out for someone of interest amongst the ladies in the club.

“Have you told her the conditions?” I say, loud enough for him to hear.

Fortunately, the music is changed to a soft one and I heave a sigh of relief. I don't have to shout now.

I am pretty exhausted already and I would love to go home, take a bath and go to bed.

Gabriel shrugs. “You can do that now."

I face the lady who is shaking her body slowly to the music. “The marriage is going to be for just a year, hope you know that?”

She looks surprised but nods anyway.

I lean forward so she can listen to the conditions carefully. “There will be no sex and no...

“What?” She exclaims loudly before laughing. “No sex? How is that even possible when we are married?”

This is the problem. I need someone who will understand and not someone ready to kick against my conditions or interrogate me on why I want this.

This is what I want, isn't this clear enough?

“That is what I want’, I answer her with gritted teeth as she watches me with wide eyes. “No strings attached.”

She turns to her friend for an explanation and I wonder what they told her.

Gabriel is silent.

“Gabriel, you didn't tell me this is what I came here for. How can I be married to a sexy, hot man like this and not have s* Is he impotent?” She says loudly, pointing towards me and staring at me in awe.

I squeeze my eyes shut.

sabrina and Gabriel begins to laugh like two crazy teenagers and anger course through me.

What the hell is this? Where did he get this stupid woman from?

“Because I don't want us to have sex doesn't mean I don't have a manhood”, I glare at her harshly.

I don't know why I am even defending myself. I look stupid right now.

“Really? Then let's have sex right now.” She suggests.

“What?!”

Is this girl crazy? What sort of high-class whore is this? I don't want a woman who will go about f***ing every single man that comes her way just because we are married and not having sex. This is definitely not the type of woman I want. sabrina is still laughing while Gabriel is trying so hard to contain his laughter.

I stand up abruptly and take a last look at the couple before shifting my gaze to the lady whose cleavage is on display in attempt to seduce me.

Even if I want to make do with this lady, she is going to seduce me to do what I don't want.

I don't want to have sex with any woman again. Helena is my woman and I am going to remain faithful to her even in dea This is because of what I did to her by cheating on her when she was alive. I didn't mean to cheat but I did.

She found out and we had a big fight, coupled with her desire for me to leave the Mafia business I am into. I told her no and she slapped me and then ran out.

I never knew I would never see her again until I got the news that my woman and child were dead.

How can I have sex again knowing fully well that cheating on her was what lead to her death?

I twirl back abruptly and begin to walk away from them, ignoring Grabriel's shout for me to come back.

I don't need his help anymore. Henceforth, I will do this my way. I will find the woman I want for just a year all by myself. seeking help from him and his crazy wife was a bad idea.

suddenly, someone bumps into me, making me halt in my tracks and grab her before she can stumble to the ground.

I feel like a hero when I get a hold of her, stopping her from falling because of me but when I see her face, I drop her quickly in shock.

“Isabella?” I call, with furrowed brows. “What the hell are you doing here?!"
