Memphis caught her wandering finger in his hand and brought it to his lips.

“I’m in the clear. Lance has already been able to uncover the evidence I need to prove that Jeremy and Andrew acted without my knowledge. I’ll still be financially responsible for the wrong that was done to people like your mom, but we’re already over eight percent of the way through repaying everyone.”

Rylee sat up. “So, you paid Mom back, not Everett Miller?”

Memphis gave a her a sheepish smile. “Something like that.”

Rylee felt her blood boiling, not at Memphis, but at Miller. “And what about that scumbag’s lawsuit against you?”

Memphis reached for her arm and tugged her back down next to him. “I suspect it will be dropped any minute now, but if he doesn’t drop it, it’s a frivolous lawsuit and it will get thrown out.”

“Why would he drop it?” She shuddered as his hand trailed her naked hips.

“Let’s just say we were able to come to an agreement and Miller Holdings is about to be part of the Foster group and Mr. Miller is going to quietly retire. And before you ask, we’re not blackmailing him, we’re just helping him escape prison by telling us the truth about his dealings with Jeremy and Andrew.”

Rylee shrugged. “I can’t say I would care if you were blackmailing him, but I’m glad you’re not. Pretty sure I’ve had enough of you nearly going to prison.”

“Just promise you haven’t had enough of me, Ace.”

She gave him a one shouldered shrug. “Nah. Not yet anyway.”

He rolled until he was on top of her. “Oh yeah? You want to try that again?” He pinched her nipple until she squealed and tried to squirm away from him.

“I’ll never get enough of you,” she breathed when the pain transformed into pleasure that pooled in her pussy. “Never. I’m all in with you, Sir.”

His mouth covered hers in a searing kiss.

“We’re all in together, Ace. But in this game, we both win.”
