His Hired Mistress: A BWWM Billionaire Romance Read Online Free Page A

a few people to get what she wanted. It was why the two of them were friends. Jamie didn’t like weak women; they upset her stomach. Life was full of so many opportunities so women that cried about what they didn’t have got on her nerves.
    Jamie wasn’t born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Hell, she was hardly born with a plastic one. Her parents abandoned her so Jamie was taken care of by her grandfather on her father’s side. She loved that man to pieces and there was nothing that she wouldn’t do for him. He didn’t have much, but he gave her everything that he had. He worked well past retirement to make sure she could finish college. She purchased him a house as soon as she could afford it. It was why she worked so hard and didn’t take no for an answer in business; her papa taught her that and she took those words to heart.
    Now, her papa wasn’t the cuddly type. He was the hardworking, hustling, gruff type. However, there was nothing that he wouldn’t do for her. She knew that he loved her and he told her every now and then but most importantly, he showed her all the time. Now he was in a new house and driving a new car. She leased him a new one every year so that he could drive in style and change it up. It was just a small token of her love towards him, which he reluctantly accepted it all. Now he was living the life of a retired old bachelor. She was sure that he was driving all of the ladies at BINGO crazy. The women loved to see a fine old chocolate man entering smoothly into a room.
    Jamie stared at her friend on the screen and smiled. Nadia was just so damned gorgeous and the public loved her. She came off as humble and personable. The public didn’t really know about her feisty side and she figured it was best that way.
    Jamie bit into the wrap and listened to Nadia read the prompter in her silky-smooth and confident voice.
    “For our entertainment segment tonight, we’re covering Nathan Sparks. He is the owner of Spark Publications as well as many other businesses. It’s being said that he’s getting ready to make some huge moves. You may not be familiar with Mr. Sparks, but he is considered to be a quiet storm. He’s not just an excellent businessman, he’s a philanthropist. Here’s some footage that we’ve caught of Nathan and his wife, Samantha leaving a soup kitchen. When asked what they were doing inside, they quickly blew off the cameras and got into their car,” Nadia said matter-of-factly. “We were able to catch up the owner of the soup kitchen. Our correspondent Mark Hayes is with the owner Mable Evans now. Mark, how are you doing?”
    Jamie was giddy on the inside as she watched all of her handiwork come into play. She met with Nathan and Stephanie a week ago and the media ball was already rolling. The screen cut to a petite woman with a hair net. Although she was the owner of the soup kitchen, she got her hands dirty too. It was admirable. Mark, the reporter, was a white guy that wasn’t going to stay in the field for long. Jamie was sure that he would be behind a desk somewhere reading the news from the prompter soon. He started confidently and asked Mable to give some information about Nathan and Stephanie. Mable looked overjoyed to be in front of the camera.
    “Well, Mr. Sparks and his wife are the reason that we’ve been able to keep our doors open for the last two years. They are truly heaven sent. They both are very humble people and they take care of this place. Today, they came by to check out the upgrades to the facility that they paid for and they even served food! Most people don’t know that they’re standing in the presence of billionaires. They never make the people that come through these doors feel less than. It makes my heart happy to know that people like them exist in the world,” Mable stated.
    Mark had a trained look of interest on his face before he asked, “Do they usually come here?”
    Mable nodded, “They come by once a quarter and that means a
