My Boyfriends Brother.

Chapter 1

"Taraji's POV"

Miami, Florida

Hi everyone, I'm Taraji P Henson and I'm a businesswoman. I mainly have a chain of Restaurants all over North and South America.

It all started when I inherited a small diner (Mama Henson's) in Chicago. That's where I'm from and it was my grandparents diner. My dads parents. He was an only child too by the way. His older brother died in a car accident when my dad was 10 years old.

Since I was the only grandchild they had, I inherited the diner when they passed away.

I was only 15 years old at the time so my parents made sure to keep it safe for me till I turned 18.

When I finally turned 18 and I graduated High School I went to Howard University and I was a business major.

By the time I turned 24 I had already expanded the little diner and turned it into a 5 star restaurant now called "Al La Henson's".

My parents helped me start it all up with some of my savings they had kept in a secret bank account for me and I couldn't thank them enough.

And today I own multiple restaurants and bars all over the States.

I'm so thankful and I couldn't be happier. I live here in Miami while my parents are still living in Chicago. Sad right?

I miss them so much.❤

My dad, George Henson is a basketball coach and my mother Regina Henson has her own chain of Salons and beauty stores.

My dad doesn't have any family and my mom has a huge family. She has 3 sisters and 4 brothers.

I love family but they all live in Chicago, I'm rarely there so I hardly see my folks.

I plan on moving back really soon though. I miss my hometown way too much to be living out here.

I have three friends here in Miami though. They're my best friends and my whole heart they keep me sane enough to handle being away from my family.

Right now I'm in my office at one of my restaurants looking over some papers. I need to make sure all the bills are paid before I go to a basketball game with my friends later on.

I don't really follow basketball much since I'm always busy and I don't have the time but I love the Lakers and I never miss any of their games, my dad and I used to watch their games together when I was little. He's a huge fan of them and I guess it stuck with me till today.

"Boss you got a minute?" Susan my assistant came in with a couple of files in her hands

"Hey, what's up?" I asked giving her my full attention

"Derek is here to see you, should I let him in?" She asked looking at me hesitantly

Derek Baker is my ex boyfriend. The controlling piece of shit lost his mind a few times when were together. I still can't believe he hit me just because waiters would call me beautiful and compliment me. So I broke up with him. I loved him so much though. He was everything I wanted in a man and he broke my heart. I had no choice but to let him go.
