When Players Fall

作者:Tyna Williams

连载中

简介
Andre Simmons is a smoking hot billionaire Casanova with a penchant for heartbreaking. Love has never been an option for Cleo. After having her heart broken one too many times, she closed herself off to the idea of 'love' and instead chose to have her fun by playing with men's feelings, like a playboy would women. Beautiful and a billionaire in her own right, finding a target was never an issue. When Cleo crossed paths with Andre, he only seemed to prove her point that men were nothing more than lying scums who deserved to be wiped off the face of the earth. So when both of them made a bet that they could make the other fall for them, Cleo was sure of only one thing; she wasn't going to lose. What happens though when Andre turns out to be different? What caused Cleo to hate men so much anyway? Who do you think wins the bet in the end? What happens when two players fall in love?

  ___Episode 1___ ANDRE

  "Don't you get it Lola? It's over. Read my lips. O-V-E-R," I said with all finality.

  "But...but...but..." she whimpered but I cut her off.

  "Enough with the buts L. That was practically the only thing good about you," I said aloud for all to hear in an attempt to further embarrass her.

  "Look L, I'm sure somewhere out there is the guy for you but it's not me. So start looking for him and pray he'll still want you after this goes viral. Catch ya...never!" I said smirking as I walked away, leaving the crowd that had gathered around us in awe and surprise.

  I don't blame them. Just a week ago, Lola had been “the girl who lit up my world” and just now, I'd broken up with and embarrassed her in public. Then again, it's just what I do.

  The name's Andre Simmons. I own one of the biggest construction firms in the world making me one of the richest men in America and the world as a whole. To compliment my financial status, I'm handsome and happen to be very good with the ladies.

  Women never cease to flock me and I never cease to take advantage of my God given talents and bed whoever's available. I play with said person until I tire of them and dispose of them publicly like you saw above.

  Some call me a player, others a s*x machine, a babe magnet etcetera etcetera but I say it's just me being me.

  "What do you mean it's over Cleo? You broke our kiss to tell me it's over... You're joking right?" his voice showed how uncertain he was making it even more fun.

  "No I'm not Chad. You heard me loud and clear Chad. It's over between us."

  "But why? Why now?" his voice was already breaking.

  "I don't know Chad. I guess it just was never meant to be," I said with fake sadness, placing my hand over his.

  "But...but..."

  "Shhh! No buts Chad. Take it like a man. Bye now," I said standing up from the bed.

  "No Cleo. Wait!" he said pulling me back towards him by my hand. I landed on the bed beside him.

  "It's not over yet Cleo. You can't be hoping to turn me into another one of your achievements."

  I smiled innocently. "I have no idea what you're talking about Chad... Would you mind getting off me? I have somewhere I need to be."

  "You're not going anywhere," he said menacingly, hovering above me.

  "Are you sure about that?" I smirked, using my free hand to punch him in the face.

  "Ah!" he screamed, rolling off me.

  I rolled my eyes and stood up from the bed, straightening my dress as I grabbed my bag and headed to the door.

  "But I love you Cleo," I heard Chad say behind me in tears.

  "Your loss buddy!" I said in reply before heading out the door, a smirk on my face. ***

  "Hey bes. Where have you been?" my best friend, Kyla asked as I slipped into the booth she was seating in.

  "Breaking up with Chad," I replied like it meant nothing.

  "Cleo! Why would you do that?"

  "Meh! I guess I got tired."

  "You will never change, will you?"

  "Nope." I said popping the 'p' at the end.

  "Chad was a nice guy you know."

  "Yeah right. The moron tried to force me to stay, wanted to sleep with me by force I guess... Had to punch him in the eye."

  "Oops! Bad decision,"

  "Mmhmm. Very bad decision," I said taking a huge bite of her burger.

  "Hey! That's mine. Go get your own," she said taking it back.

  I smiled at her, waving a waiter over. One came over and took my order.

  "You know Cleo, you'll have to stop all this very soon."

  I groaned aloud. "Come on Kyla, not this again!"

  "What? I'm just saying you can't keep up your "play girl" lifestyle forever. You know one day, you'll have to settle down and form a family with someone you..."

  "Don't say it!"

  "Love," she said smiling.

  "And you said it!"

  "I'm serious Cleo. Sooner or later, love will come and even your cold heart won't be able to deny it."

  I rolled my eyes. "Whatever."

  My order came soon after and I ate while Kyla continued her lecture.

  "Okay Ky, as much as I'd love to continue this lecture, I have to go. I have a meeting with Andre Simmons in a while."

  "Wait a minute, did you say Andre Simmons?"

  "Yeah?"

  "He's hot Cleo you know."

  "Yeah and?"

  "Nothing really. Just don't make another one of your conquests. The guy's hot!"

  "Whatever Ky. Bye." I said hugging her. •••• ANDRE

  "We're here Sir." The driver said pulling up beside a huge building.

  I nodded and stepped out of the car into the building. There were a lot of murmurs as I walked by, mostly from the ladies but I paid no attention to them as I walked briskly towards the receptionist desk.

  "Hello Mr. Simmons. It's a pleasure to meet you," she said smiling flirtatiously.

  "Yeah. You too. Is Miss Reynolds in?"

  "Yes Sir. She is. Should I escort you?"

  "No need. Just give me directions and I'm good to go."

  "Oh!" she frowned. "Tenth floor. Third office on your left."

  "Thanks," I headed towards the elevator, stepped in and punched the 10 key.

  The doors closed and after a few seconds opened again. I stepped out and ended towards the third office on my left like the reception said. On the door was written "Cleona Reynolds. CEO. "

  I knocked on the door and went in after a "Come in".

  "Whoa!" I had to exclaim once I stepped in.

  Seated behind a large mahogany table was a lady with long wavy black hair that seemed to shimmer, a face like that of an angel and small pouty lips. As for her figure, it was nothing short of outstanding.

  I could see why and how she'd earned herself the name "California's Play Girl". No man could resist a beauty like Cleona Reynolds.

  "You can have your seat Mr. Simmons," she said interrupting my chain of thoughts.

  "Oh yeah," I said doing as she said.

  She smiled and said, "Give me a sec to review the files, Mr. Simmons."

  "Just call me Andre."

  "Of course Mr. Simmons."

  I smiled. Playing hard to get, are we?

  She returned to checking the files in her hands. I kept my eyes on her.

  "Nice view," I said all of a sudden.

  "Uh yeah. It's a really nice view." She said looking towards the large glass wall by her left.

  "I wasn't talking about that view. I was talking about you."

  She chuckled and dropped the files on the table.

  "Are you flirting with me Mr. Simmons?"

  "Do you want me to be flirting with you Miss Reynolds?" I replied smirking.

  She chuckled again and pushed her chair backward as she rose to her feet and slowly walked towards me.

  She sat on the table in front of me and observed me with a smile on her face before she began to bring her face towards mine.

  "This was too easy," I thought to myself smiling.

  Then with our face inches apart, she paused and said, "Out of my office Mr. Simmons."

  "Wait what?!"
