The Billionaire Wins the Game(14)

There was a stir in the room and suddenly she was standing in front of another Greek God.

Seriously, did they grow them on trees? She saw the resemblance and knew that this must be the last brother. Holy smokes, he was sexy as sin.

The man was wearing skin tight, worn out Wrangler jeans, a black cowboy hat that had seen better days and a grin stretched across his face.

“Hey boy, what took you so long? You know your mama’s been crying, wondering where her son was. She figured you forgot all about her,” Joseph said while leaning in to give his son a hug.

“Ah dad, Isabelle was birthing and I had to make sure she was going to be okay. Chad’s with her though so I hurried right over,” he said sheepishly to his father.

“Well just as long as you got here before we cut her cake,” Joseph said, forgiving his son’s late arrival.

“Now who’s this gorgeous woman you have on your arm? Did mom finally come to her senses and kick you to the curb?” He turned, giving Amy his undivided attention.

She felt a blush come to her cheeks. She immediately looked down, not wanting him to catch her gawking, but she didn’t see how any of the brothers had a moment of peace from all the women.

She could simply gaze at them and just soak up their stunning looks and megawatt smiles.

“Mark quit embarrassing our guest. This is Amy Harper. She’s the newest executive secretary for your worthless brother over there, who by the way is giving you the evil eye,” Joseph goaded him.

Mark turned around and saw the look on his brother’s face that clearly told him Amy wasn’t just his assistant. His brother was making it clear to all men in the room that the woman was his.

Mark sent him a huge grin, which grew even wider when he saw Lucas’s eyes narrow a bit more.

Mark decided to goad his big brother a bit. “Well Ms. Amy, it’s truly a pleasure to meet you. I have a real job opening for you if you get sick of working for that stuffed shirt of a brother of mine,” he said while giving her a flirtatious wink.

Then Amy was bent backwards over his arm and getting a kiss in front of a room full of strangers. He then whipped her straight up and threw his arm around her shoulder. “Do you want to run away with me? You’re simply stunning and one hell of a kisser,” he said with a wink.

Amy feared her face would remain scarlet the entire time she was around the Anderson family.

They all had no problem with physical contact and were far too gorgeous for their own good.

Amy realized she’d been kissed by all the brothers now. She was dismayed to find that only Lucas caused a burning flash inside of her.

She knew that both of Lucas’s brothers were joking with her but usually when a woman was kissed by a man as suave and downright gorgeous as both Mark and Alex were, she couldn’t control the body’s natural responses.

Even though both of the brothers were spectacular, it had felt like kissing a cousin. She must be going out of her mind. She was pondering that when Lucas walked up to them. She hadn’t even noticed that Mark’s arm was still around her.

“Okay Mark, you can quit manhandling Amy. I’m going to take her to get some food. She’s not available,” he finished.

With that she was switched from one brother to the next. She was beginning to feel like a shiny new toy. She would definitely remember to correct him on telling people who she was available for. She didn’t want to date anyone at the moment but it wasn’t his place to make that announcement.


Amy was surprised to find she was enjoying the evening, even with the earlier drama still in the back of her mind. No one in the home made her feel inadequate that she was wearing far less than dress clothes. Everyone there was friendly and inviting. She was shocked by how many employees and former employees of the company were at the party.

Amy observed how everyone was treated like a part of the family. The things she’d read about the Anderson family in the papers were all make believe, it appeared. They’d been portrayed in every sort of scandal you could imagine but the papers didn’t do justice to any of them. They were truly amazing people.

Amy let go of her problems and even forgot she was technically homeless at the moment. She was simply having too much of a pleasant time. She ate great food and visited with so many interesting people. She had no idea how late it was getting until she was sitting comfortably in the swinging chair on the back deck and noticed the party was starting to thin out.

Her problems came crashing back to the forefront of her mind. She didn’t have much money saved up so far. She had her first few paychecks, which were impressive but that money was supposed to be for the down payment on her new apartment. If she dipped into those funds to stay at a motel it would take longer to get into her place.

Oh well, she thought; she had no choice but to do that. It just delayed her plans by a month or two. It was no problem. She was so close to her goals that nothing was going to stop her. In the large scheme of things it was a minor setback.

“There you are Amy. I sit in this swing quite a bit myself,” Joseph stated, startling her out of her reverie. “The party has finally wound down so let’s step into my office and take care of some business,” he continued on.

“Yes sir,” she replied. Her first instinct was to panic. Was she going to get fired now that Lucas had seen how she was living? Please, please don’t get fired she repeated in her head over and over again. Then she let logic step back in. He wouldn’t invite her to the party only to fire her, would he?
