A Date With The CEO 28
CHAPTER 28: JEALOUSY.Liam noticed the expression in the stranger's eyes, but Emma seemed not to. The girl wiped some of the pieces of cookie that had fallen on her clothes, and stood up, with a soft smile she walked towards Leonardo, who had remained static in his position, as if he was unable to believe his eyes, he blinked hard, as if by doing that, he would get that guy he didn't know, to leave the place where Emma lived.The girl walked towards Leonardo, opening her arms, giving him a hug that he did not even reciprocate, as he remained static, in his place, looking at Liam, who challenged him with his eyes, he did not even know why, Leonardo did not understand what that guy was doing with Emma, and Liam did not understand who that guy was and why Emma had hugged him and kissed him on the cheek, both men were in a mixture of doubts, Emma did not even realize that the looks of both seemed to battle without any reason."Leonardo, dear, I'm so glad you're here" The smile didn't leav

CHAPTER 29: POSSESSION.Emma blinked repeatedly, looking at Leonardo from head to toe, her brow furrowed, she turned away from him, swallowing saliva with an ocher sensation in her mouth."W-what?""That you'll never see that guy again, Emma"."Of course I'll see him again, he's been my friend for like twelve years," she told him, angry, not only for his behavior, but for the behavior he had had when Liam had been there, she had not liked at all that her friend had been treated that way, especially when Liam was such a sweet man, who would have gotten along very well with Leonardo, if he hadn't attacked him, "Why did you treat him like that?""Emma, I arrived with food for both of us, I took time from where I didn't have, just to see you, you have no idea how desperate I was to see you, and I arrive to find you with... a guy giving you a cookie in your mouth? How did you want me to react?""You shouldn't have talked to him like that, he's my friend"."Why do you seem to care more abou

CHAPTER 30: A MEETING.He had never ever experienced a feeling like that, that sweet but suffocating sensation in which a specific person did not leave his head, in which that person danced around the corners of his mind incessantly, in which that person appeared in his dreams. Never in all his life had he experienced a desperate and almost sickly longing to have someone close to him, that that person would not leave his side; he was Leonardo White, the most coveted bachelor of that city, and he could surely say that one of the most coveted bachelors of that country, he could have any woman he wanted, however, a woman as simple as Emma, kept him in insomnia, in constant anguish, Leonardo did not know how jealous he could become, until he found himself in danger of losing her, the most rational part of him told him that that danger was a false one, that he would not lose her, but there was a part of him - a very strong one - that screamed at him that yes, anyone else was capable of loo

CHAPTER 31: LEONIDES.He knew that Emma felt an uncomfortable pressure on his shoulders every time they both went out holding hands, the looks of everyone stuck on them, were like needles that hurt Emma, he had told her to avoid gestures like that -even though everyone knew that she and Leonardo were in a relationship, and who did not know it, suspected it in a huge way-, but he did not like to ever obey what she asked, and he did it intentionally, because it was all about that plan he had devised weeks ago: to make Emma feel so uncomfortable in that company, that she would choose to leave on her own, so that she would be safe from any man who sought to seduce her, because he knew that if he told her directly: "Emma, I don't want you to work here anymore" and then explained his reasons, she would be angry because of his jealousy.Leonardo caressed Emma's hand as they walked, causing a smile to appear on the girl's lips. The blond opened the door where the meeting was taking place, he
A Date With The CEO PROLOGUE
PROLOGUE: LEONARDO WHITE.The news that Leonardo White would be coming to pay a visit to the company had been one that had not been unheard of for at least two full weeks.There wasn't a secretary who didn't talk about it, or who wasn't intensely happy about it. Emma still did not fully understand it she did not understand it at all. She had too many doubts about Leonardo's visit, first of all, she did not even know who Leonardo White was, she was so disoriented."I guess I'll meet him soon," she said to herself, as she walked.She raised her hand so that it would be possible for her to see the time. Ten past seven in the morning. She quickened her pace, almost running, if she could find herself in shoes a little more comfortable, she would allow herself to run, too bad those high heels they required secretaries to wear, didn't even allow her to walk properly. It had always seemed to her, unfair in the fact that such an annoying emphasis was placed on women being groomed, without even

CHAPTER 1: UNATTAINABLE.If there was a word capable of describing Leonardo White, the word would be: unattainable. Inaccessible. Although there were also a lot more words with which to describe him: arrogant, cold, despot, cruel, wasteful... and the list went on and on, but, from Emma's experience, she did not consider him to be a bad man, on the contrary: she found him to be a nice man.Every time the woman told someone that she had been saved from being fired by Leonardo White, the first reaction, was disbelief. ‘Leonardo White, the coldest man in Canada, saving someone other than himself?’ they would say, as if it was inconceivable that he would do a good deed. ‘It must be a matter of luck,’ she had been told more than once.Emma wondered what Leonardo White's reputation was due to, but no one seemed to have the courage to answer it directly, the only she knew about the subject, was that he was the son of the owner of the company where she worked, he was twenty-seven years old, si
A Date With The CEO 2
She had not finished processing it, and perhaps she would not finish processing it for the rest of the days to come. Two weeks had passed since she had gone from being just another secretary to being Leonardo White's exclusive secretary, and she still felt the same bewilderment as the time he had announced himself.At the time, she had wanted to refuse him and tell him that she did not want to work in his office, but that would be hanging a noose around her neck; seeing how cruelly he had fired Sofia, she had found herself almost unable to refuse the order he had given her. Because he had not asked her, Leonardo White had not asked her to be his exclusive secretary, he had ordered her, and he seemed to have gone to her just to say that, but to her friend's misfortune, he had listened to her words.Everyone was talking about it, everyone was saying that Emma had become a closer secretary to Leonardo White, not even Emma herself knew what that implied, the only difference from her previ
A Date With The CEO 3
The days were getting harder and harder, heavier and heavier, there was not a moment in which she did not regret having to be Leonardo White's secretary.She could say: "to accept to be his secretary", but that's where it was: she hadn't accepted to be his secretary, he had just gone to order her to be his secretary, and as a result she had three times the work she had when she was a simple secretary, just another pawn in a huge company.Three weeks had passed since she had been his secretary, and calmness had been her most dangerous enemy: she did not have a second of peace, huge and trapping dark circles were drawn under her haggard face, at his request, she had to arrive hours earlier, she did not even understand the reason for that order: She arrived at the company and there were only him and her and very few employees, so few that a hand was necessary to count them, during the period in which both were almost alone in the company, the only thing that Emma received, were uncomfort
