Bought By The Billionaire
Chapter 27: Bought By The Billionaire - Chapter Twenty-Seven
Later, showered, clean and comfortable, we lie together on my bed, drinking wine, discussing everything and nothing in the candlelight.
“Master, there’s something I think I need to tell you about.”
Cocking an eyebrow at me, “Oh? What?”.
“You know Mack Kane?”
“What about him? He lost his job when you spotted that he’d been defrauding the company.”
“Yes, but, I’ve seen him a few times since then. I think he’s following me.”
My Master looks appalled. “What! When was this?”
“Usually when I’m coming home from the office. I keep seeing him and I wonder if he’s trying to find out where I live now. The first time I thought it was just a coincidence, but it’s kept happening. I think I’ve managed to lose him in the crowds each time but….”
He holds up a warding hand. “Say no more Elizabeth. I’ll get right onto it. I think a prohibition order is needed. I have friends with the police. We’ll get it fast-tracked for you.”
“Thank you, Master.”
“I’m sorry, Elizabeth. You don’t deserve this.”
“It’s alright, Master. It’s not your fault. I didn’t want to bother you with it but….”
He jabs a finger at me. “This is the kind of thing you do bother me with Elizabeth. If anything else happens, you tell me right away. I mean that. You call me immediately. You have my mobile number, and I’ll tell Francis to make sure that if you call the office, it comes straight through to me if you say it’s important.”
“Alright. I’ll do that.”
He stretches and yawns. “I’m sorry Elizabeth, but I have to go. I have a lot on tomorrow and the following day, so it could be the end of the week before I see you again. But don’t worry about things. I’ll contact the police tomorrow morning. And you keep in touch if you need to. I wouldn’t forgive myself if anything were to happen to you. Okay?”
I nod. “Good night, Elizabeth.” And he kisses me, softly, on the lips, his hand caressing my hair.
