THE BILLONAIRE'S SECRET BABY

CHAPTER 4

The Donovan family was hated by ZAIN SALLY. Ken Donovan, who thought he was much more charismatic than he actually was and acted as if it

made him a force to be reckoned with, was someone he had long hated. When all it actually accomplished was to turn him into Zain and his brother's

sworn enemy by appealing to the weak. His son had always been, at best, worthless and completely ridiculous. For years, Zain had been waiting for

the right moment to deal with the senior Donovan. Given how he handled all that was done without his knowledge, he might have overlooked the

younger's foolishness or at least forgave it. Kenny Donovan did not think he could steal from Zain and get away with it. Zain didn't give much thought

to the fact that he overcharged Sally & Sons and kept the difference.

He felt insulted by the idea in general. He was unable to support Kenny Donovan's poisonous notion that he could defraud Zain. He may

nevertheless acknowledge that it was a wise decision to assign the daughter to deal with her family's transgressions. He would not have allowed the

son or father to see him. "When my secretarial staff told me that you kept calling, I was certain they were mistaken." He kept a tight eye on her as she

stood there, seemingly glowing even more brightly despite being framed by the shining city behind her. When I last saw you, you were much more

interested in escaping than pleading for an appointment. Back then, when nobody could fool him, Kylie had managed to do so. Him. And he could

concede, in the privacy of his own thoughts, that he had disliked her family for reasons other than her brother's robbery. that what her brother had

done had only confirmed what he already believed. because of that night with her so long ago. Wanting things he couldn't have was something Zain

wasn't used to. Instantly.

Kylie Donovan added, "I'm here on behalf of my family," in a calm tone. When he could see the heat he remembered on her cheeks and in her

dazzling, golden eyes, he could only describe it as professional. Hence, a liar. He shouldn't have been surprised in the slightest. Much less something

that, in his opinion, erred just a little too close to disappointment. Do they think of you as the most appropriate weapon, he questioned softly. "I

believe your family is misinterpreting the circumstances," At that, she blinked but didn't pass out. or withdraw inside oneself. Both responses were

displayed by hulking male CEOs who stepped in front of him and risked his disapproval. Kylie, in contrast to them, irritated him. Zain could still not

comprehend why she should have such an impact on him, but he could not forget the warmth of her in his fingers. When women merged into one

huge and wonderful smear of sensation and release in his memory.

However, he could still taste her in his mouth. her skin's silky texture. the way he had fully taken hold of her. It would be an understatement to

say that Zain was angry about it. Keeping her composure, Kylie answered, "I appreciate you seeing me," folding her hands in front of her in a way that

may have been courteous and composed had he not also noticed the signs that she was clenching her own fingers excessively. Why was that soothing

to him? I'm not here to defend my brother's behavior, she said. "I certainly hope not. His theft. it's me. Even worse, he thought he could get away with

it. He grinned. Thinly. I can't stand arrogance, she said. He could taste the heartbeat in her neck. Maybe it explains why he suddenly seems unable to

take his eyes off of it. especially not given how fast and erratic it pounded. He also attributed that to her.

"I don't anticipate you forgiving him. might perhaps have compassion for him. You wouldn't, why? The question "Why, indeed?" "I'm

hopeful that we can reach some sort of understanding. I would be happy to find a way to persuade you that contacting the authorities is not

necessary. Even though there wasn't much humor in it, Zain laughed. He moved away from the doorjamb and entered his actual office, a large space

that spoke about his money and importance from every conceivable aspect. On two sides, there were glass walls, giving the impression that they were

floating over Manhattan. Granite and steel are everywhere, glistening with both affluence and a silent danger. He enjoyed revealing his identity. There

could therefore be no error. He was not shocked to see that Kylie had followed him and was now standing uncertainly just inside the door as he turned

the large slab that functioned as his desk. He was genuinely curious in her response and questioned her, "What on earth makes you think that I would

do such a thing?" "What utter hubris it was. the utterly revolting gall. If you think you can persuade me of anything, you must think highly of yourself.

She made a surrendering gesture by spreading her hands out in front of her. He shouldn't have been so lustful for a taste of her, after all. I won't try to

convince you that my brother Kenny isn't an issue.

"You are already here. to stand up for him. But what defense can you possibly mount against a species that is so careless and destructive to

itself? "None." That shocked him because he took himself in never being surprised by business machi countries. He placed one finger on the granite

surface behind his desk while standing there, and it wasn't until he noticed that he was tapping it that he realized how agitated he actually was. That

was just one more thing Zain attributed to this woman. You didn't come here to defend him against his faults, did you? "What possible defense could

there be?" Kylie mutely questioned. I promise that I am more familiar with my brother's flaws than you are. It is obvious to me that he did, even

though I am at a loss as to why he would feel the need to falsify the books given that he already has more than enough money on his own. Even my

father, who has always been Kenny's strongest supporter, was unable to provide any explanation for this. Kenny did not provide an explanation.

Naturally, no. You see, Kopéla, greed is really rather easy. He was craving more. He therefore took it. I won't pretend to you that I am familiar

with every aspect of the accounting in this place. When guys twice her size would cower before him, she lifted her chin yet maintained her focus on

him. But I can understand stealing. I'm willing to repay you with interest. Today." "Yet again, you're mistaken," When she flinched, he grinned and

attempted to hide it as he watched. "I'm not after your cash. I want you to fail. Or the embarrassment of her father, but that would come. Since she

had followed him into the room, her cheeks had been glowing, but she soon became pale. "From what I hear, the final total was roughly 2.5 million. I'll

give you that it's a sizable sum of money. The money will be repaid by my father from his personal account. if required, in cash. And there shouldn't be

any reason to lose all of your money. Zain has been daydreaming about this moment for some time. It delighted him. You misunderstand me, he said.

Distinctly. "I'm not talking about the money. Kylie, I want your family to be destroyed. particularly your father's conceit. You and I are

fully aware that if I dragged your brother through the legal system, your family's reputation would be permanently damaged. To be clear, nobody

would be shocked that your Kenny was found, simply distinctly appalled in that particular old money way. Additionally, I think the rest of your family

would feel unwelcome in the social circles you all presently frequent. He would consider that a respectable beginning. Since she first appeared in his

waiting room, she finally appeared upset, and he had anticipated it to feel more like a victory than it did. There must be a way I can persuade you not

to do that, I think. Zain looked at her. What do you have that you believe I could find appealing?
