Damn! I actually was attracted to him.

The words hung between us, undeniable now that it has been said out loud. His gaze held mine for a second longer, like he was making sure.

With his hand still resting on my cheek, he tilted his head to the other side of my face and leaned in as his lips brushed my earlobes. A slow, deliberate press of heat that made my breath catch.

Then he placed another kiss on my cheek.

"If you don’t want this, Amelia" he murmured against my skin, his voice rou

  • A Deal With Mr. CEO   Chapter 108: Lounge Nights

    ADRIAN We finally got back to the shower. "Adrian," Amelia started, her voice having a breathless, teasing edge, "please remind me not to let the both of us shower together when we ever have somewhere important to be." I laughed quietly, running a hand through my wet hair. "Noted." I turned the water back on, with the both of us thoroughly washing off the lingering salt air from the beach and the heat of the last hour. We finally walked out of the bathroom with towels wrapped around us, stepping back into the bedroom. We dried off while Amelia walking toward the counter to grab her skincare products she had laid out earlier before going to the bathroom. I settled black trousers and a grey long-sleeved button-down with the sleeves folded neatly to my forearms. While Amelia was just finishing putting on her outfit. She had on a floral knee-length dress that fit her perfectly. She looked so beautiful... all the time. About thirty minutes later, I checked the time on m

    ADRIAN Well what followed next was far from a shower. It was more than just about getting clean. The moment we stepped into the bathroom, I pulled Amelia straight under the shower as the water poured down on us instantly soaking our hair and skin. Steam rose around us, wrapping the space in a soft, intimate haze. I cupped her face with both hands and kissed her slowly and deeply, taking my time. There was no rush. Just the two of us, the sound of falling water and the overwhelming feeling of having her back in my arms. She melted into me, her wet body pressing flush against mine as her hands slid up my chest and around my neck. "I missed you so much," I whispered against her lips, my voice low and rough with emotion. "I missed you too," she breathed, her fingers threading through my wet hair. The water made everything slick and sensitive. I ran my hands down her back, over the curve of her waist, then lower, gripping her hips as I pulled her even closer. She gasped

  • A Deal With Mr. CEO   Chapter 106: The Waves

    Adrian glanced toward my cup before looking back at me. 'You really don’t like orange juice?" I let out a laugh, wrapping my hands around the cool glass of my apple juice. "No, not really. I’ve just never really been a big fan of citrus fruits or drinks in general. I’ve always preferred flavors like apple or berry." "Oh," he nodded slowly. "Right." "What?" "Oh, nothing. I guess just assumed everybody liked orange juice." I laughed softly. "Clearly not everybody." "That's noted." We sat there for a while longer, watching the ocean. Eventually, after we finished our drinks and snacks, we got up again and continued our walk along the beach. I stopped walking and pulled my phone out from the pocket of my overall. "Adrian, stop for a second. Look at me." He paused, turning toward me with an amused, curious brow raised. Before he could question what I was doing, I stepped into his side, wrapping one arm around his waist and lifting the phone up high, angling the camera

  • A Deal With Mr. CEO   Chapter 105: Ocean Air

    We kept walking slowly across the shoreline, our bare feet sinking into the warm, white sand with every step we took. The waves occasionally brushed close enough to touch our feet before pulling away again. Out of nowhere, a low, quiet laugh escaped Adrian. I turned immediately, narrowing my eyes at him suspiciously as I let out a small laugh of my own. I nudged his shoulder. "What? What is it?" He shook his head lightly, still smiling to himself. "Nothing. I just... I suddenly remembered the very first time we met." I chuckled as memories of our stormy beginning flooding my mind. "Back when you were incredibly arrogant." His raised an eyebrow. "What makes you think I’m no longer arrogant?" I shrugged casually. "Well, ever since we got together, you've softened up significantly, Mr. Langford. At least around me and I’m pretty sure you became slightly more tolerable." "Slightly?" "Very slightly." He chuckled quietly beside me, shaking his head before nodding s

    I walked over to him, stepping into his space and slipped my hand into his as we walked back out of the bedroom together. We strolled down the wide, sunlit hallway. My eyes drifted around the high ceilings again before I looked at him. "Adrian," I began. "Do you just randomly buy luxury properties whenever you see them?" He paused, turning his head to look down at me. A small laugh escaped him. "No, not at all. I’m a businessman, not an impulsive collector. Every investment has to have a purpose." "Because at this point, I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised." "Wow. Is that what you think of me now?" "A little bit," I laughed. He shook his head with amusement before sliding one hand into his pocket as we walked. He guided me toward a glass wall that looked out over the sprawling rear gardens. "I actually bought this specific place about three years back. Initially, it caught my eye because the architectural design was absolute genius, the structure, the layout, the lighti

  • A Deal With Mr. CEO   Chapter 103: A Weekend Together

    I could have easily made the phone call the exact moment I got home but I knew how demanding his schedule was, especially when he was out of the city. And I already figured that he might be wrapped up in evening board meetings. I didn't want to interrupt him, so I forced myself to just wait. I freshened up first, changed into something comfortable, and made myself a light dinner. Nothing too serious. Just pasta and apple juice and finally climbed onto the bed, propping myself up against the pillows. For the past three days, this had become our established routine. Ever since Adrian had left for his sudden, demanding business trip across the country, we had carved out this little window of time much later in the night to talk. And I found myself looking forward to those calls. I unlocked my phone, pulled up his name, and tapped the call button. He picked up almost immediately. "Hi, my lady," his voice came through. I giggled softly, shifting the phone closer to my ear

    AMELIA Did that really just happen? I mean… it did. I was there. But still. My legs were still shaky as I padded down the last few steps into the living room. I let out a quiet breath as I walked further into the living room, my steps slower than usual, like I was trying to process everything

    I gave him a small smile. For a moment he just stood there looking at me, his eyes still fixed on my face as though he had forgotten what he was supposed to say next. "You look beautiful, Amelia," he said again. "Thank you," I replied. "You look good yourself. He actually did look good... li

    I stared at the screen.For a moment I actually considered typing back. 'How did you get my number?' But then I shook my head. Of course he had my number.Someone like Adrian Langford could probably get anyone’s number if he wanted. Still… he could have at least pretended to ask first. I slipped th
