A Deal With Mr. CEO Chapter 68: Night out
Amelia After a frantic day at the office, where every "Happy Birthday" from a colleague felt like a reminder of the one person who hadn't said it, I finally made it home. After dinner, I settled on the couch to rest for a while before the girls show up. After a while, there was a knock on the door. My lips curved into a smile because I already knew who I was expecting. I opened the door and there they were. "Birthday girl!" Zoey squealed, throwing her arms around me. "Twenty six looks good on you," Brianna said, hugging me right after. I laughed, moving aside for them. "You two, come in."They did and I shut the door behind them. The air in the living room instantly felt lighter. They didn’t give me a second before shoving a neatly wrapped box into my hands. "For the birthday girl," Brianna said. I looked down at it, then back at them. "You didn’t have to..." "Open it," Zoey cut in, impatient. I laughed and peeled back the wrapping. Inside was a sleek designer
A Deal With Mr. CEO Chapter 67: A New Age
It's been over a week since the "incident" in Adrian’s office. I had thrown myself into the new client pitches and just tried to distract myself.I exhaled slowly, pushing the thought away as I sat on my couch that evening. Just then, my phone began to vibrate on the table in front of me.I picked the phone up. It was a group FaceTime request from Zoey and Brianna. I smiled faintly before answering."Hey, you two.""Hello!" Zoey’s voice came through immediately, dramatic as ever. "Happy Birthday Eve!" Brianna’s face filled half the screen."Don't even think about saying you're too tired tomorrow," Zoey chimed in from her own window, pointing a mascara wand at the camera.She continued. "Tomorrow is the big Two and Six, and thankfully, it’s a Friday. That means no 'I have a big meeting tomorrow' excuses, Amelia. We are going out. Real food, real drinks, and zero talk about work. We're just having fun."I laughed. "Okay, okay! I hear you both. I surrender. No work talk, I promise.""An

Adrian didn't pull away, he lifted my chin with his fingers trembling slightly. He was staring at me with an unshielded intensity. "Amelia," he breathed. He reached out, his thumb catching a stray lock of hair and tucking it slowly, deliberately, behind my ear. His touch was like fire on my skin. Before I could process the heat, his hands moved to my waist. With an effortless surge of strength, he lifted me. I gasped, my hands instinctively flying to his shoulders to steady myself. Thankfully, I had opted for my tailored corporate trousers today. He walked the short distance to his massive desk. With one sweep of his arm, he shoved a stack of files and documents aside. They slid across the polished wood, some fluttering to the floor, but he didn't seem to bother. He settled me onto the edge of the desk, stepping between my knees so that there was no space left. His lips found the sensitive curve of my neck, sending a jolt of pure lightning through my veins. He traile
A Deal With Mr. CEO Chapter 65: What Are We Doing?
The following week, we all that were involved in the Rebrand were called to the boardroom that afternoon. We all filed in. Mr. Hillary stood at the head of the table, looking pleased as he addressed us. "You all did an exceptional job," he said, his voice warm. "The client, Mr. Adrian Langford was satisfied. Everything was on point. Well done to every single one of you." A round of applause rippled through the room. I clapped along with everyone else. Mr. Hillary continued, "Because of the success of this project, two other major firms have already reached out to us for similar rebranding work. This is a significant win for Elevate. It puts us firmly on the map in the premium acquisition space." "We’ll be discussing the specifics of the new accounts later this week," Mr. Hillary added, gathering his things. "But for now, take the win. You’ve earned it. Meeting adjourned." Another round of applause followed, louder this time. A few people cheered. After a few more conver

Just then, my phone rang. I glanced at the caller ID and it was mom. I walked to a more quiet corner and picked it up. I picked up, trying to keep my voice steady. "Hey, Mom." "Amelia," she said immediately, her tone a mix of surprise and concern. "How are you dear? Did you make a mistake? I saw that you transferred half a million dollars to my account." I leaned my head against a cold concrete pillar, closing my eyes for a second. Earlier in the week, after verifying everything with the bank and making sure the transfer was secure, I had sent her half of the money that Adrian had deposited to my account. It felt like the right thing to do. She had actually saved up for me while I was growing up. It was from that money I bought the house I lived in now, even though Zoey and Brianna had teased me endlessly about buying a place with more than one bedroom when I was the only one living there. "It was not a mistake, Mom," I said quietly. She was silent for a beat. "Did you t
A Deal With Mr. CEO Chapter 63: Terms Completed
AMELIA The following Monday arrived with finality. Today marked exactly four months since the contract began, which meant it was the end of everything. I woke up that morning feeling the weight of it. When I agreed to this entire thing, I would never have believed this is how it would feel like when it ended. I went through my usual routine and then got dressed for work. Adrian was scheduled to come in for the campaign approval meeting that afternoon. When I arrived, the team whose work was directly tied to the Relaunch project gathered in the boardroom. Not a huge crowd, just the core group, senior strategists, creatives, and a couple of account leads. I took my usual seat between trying to steady the nervous flutter in my stomach. When Adrian walked in with Evander, the room’s energy shifted in that familiar way. He exchanged a brief, professional greeting with Mr. Hillary, then gave a polite nod to the rest of the room as a whole. His eyes didn’t sweep across to find m

ADRIAN Harrington led the way a little further down the terrace, past the main dining setup and toward a more quieter section. He didn’t waste time on small talks. "I won’t keep you long," he said. "You already know what this conversation is about, right?." "Yes, I do know," I replied. "I’

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

I folded my arms slowly and looked at him."Why is it me?"The question left my mouth before I could stop it. Maybe it was curiosity. Maybe it was annoyance or the strange feeling that had been sitting in my chest since he said the words fake relationship like it was a normal business proposal.Adr
A Deal With Mr. CEO Chapter 8: Not Related To Work
Amelia I stepped fully into the office and closed the door gently behind me. The quiet in Adrian Langford’s office felt… intentional. His eyes locked onto mine. "Good morning, Mr. Langford," I greeted smoothly. "Good morning," he returned, voice calm. "Please, have a seat." he gestured toward
