*ALEXANDER*

I didn't want to let her leave my house, leave my life.

Stella came into my office.

"Mr. Graves, Miss Kate is here to see you."

I shut my eyes momentarily.

What now?

Before I could instruct Stella to send her back, Kate entered my office.

"Hello, Alexander."

I sighed. "Stella, excuse us."

Stella nodded sharply and left.

"I've told you countless times that I do not want to see you anymore, Kate. You made my wife suspicious of me until today.

How many times must I say that I had nothing to do with that? I told you we were friends. I've told you I don't know why she got the wrong impression about us.

I let out a sigh.

Was Sienna claiming that I was having an affair so that she could go be with Edgar?

Why are you here?

It's my birthday today. Could you come to the mall with me and buy me something?"

No," I replied.

Alexander, please. I'm not even feeling too well today."

I looked at her carefully.

She indeed appeared unwell.

What has that got to do with me?" I asked.

    *SIENNA*Ethan reached into the bag and pulled out some medications.After I dropped you off last night, he called and asked me to meet him at a bar. I went, but I started feeling weak and had to leave. He must’ve shown up this morning to help me and got the wrong idea. I think he believes we did something.You should clear things up with him," I suggested.I will when I get the chance. Alexander is really unstable right now...He told me his previous relationship had hurt him too badly.I gulped.His previous relationship?Did he mean Kate or me?After putting on my dress, I truly wanted to go home, but I had to tell Ethan.Can't you stay for breakfast?" he asked.No...I genuinely have somewhere I need to go.Okay...let me give you a lift.No, it's fine.I want to…Please don't," I said a bit more sharply this time.I didn't want anyone assuming something was happening between us.What if his girlfriend had shown up?I would've made things difficult for them.And causing someone harm

  • A FORBIDDEN NIGHT WITH THE CEO    CHAPTER EIGHTY-EIGHT

    *SIENNA VALE*I had no option but to change into one of his polo.When he wakes up, I would explain to him the reason why I wear it.I hung my clothes on the dryer and I went back to look in on him.His body temperature was still falling.I try to find the kitchen and then I rummaged through his cabinets and refrige.He had plenty of groceries and I decided to prepare him a hot food.After cooking, I returned to his bedroom and gently woke him up.He was still so frail and I had to spoon-feed him.After eating, he whispered his thanks and drifted back to sleep.I tucked his body with a duvet and I noticed his eyes lingered on my body and then I realized that I was still wearing his cloth.I felt so self-conscious.I should be the one thanking you. You came all this way and cared for me. God knows what would have happened if you hadn't stopped by.""It's nothing."I wanted to rise and go retrieve my clothes.But my thighs were already showing right now no matter how much I tried to pull

    *SIENNA*I turned and gaze at her."Cut it out. Just because something happened between Alexander and me doesn't mean something would happen between me and Ethan.Ethan...he has such an attractive name."I sighed. "You're so impossible."I set the chicken on the tray and we settled down and eat.It got late and it was still raining so Clara decided to stay the night.I grabbed my bag and rummaged through it for my phone but I couldn't see it.I frowned as I started to search everywhere in the house for it.What are you looking for?My phone… I can’t find it anywhere.I sat down, trying to remember the last moment I had seen it.Was it left in Ethan’s car?Or maybe it dropped when I stepped out?I think it’s still in his car.Let me have your phone Clara, I said.I entered my bedroom and pulled out a book where I had jotted down people's contact details.I wanted to quit losing people's numbers constantly.I headed back to the room and called his number using Clara's phone."I don

    *ALEXANDER*"Wait... have you truly developed feelings for her already? Perhaps you should reconsider. She's already a mother."Married?A child?In merely six months...I began calculating mentally—the interval between our separation and the present moment.It was impossible for her to have conceived and delivered in that timeframe.Had she adopted?"I have no romantic interest in her," I stated firmly. "And I really must be leaving now." With that, I opened his office door and departed.******************************I settled into my car and rested against the headrest. "Where to, sir?" Brad inquired."Just drive," I muttered.She didn't waste any time marrying that foolish man. And I’ve actually started thinking she might regret ending things. But no.She jumped straight into another marriage.I couldn't stop picturing Sienna and Edgar living together... doing everything side by side... sleeping together.I yanked my tie loose and tried to catch my breath.The car stopped."Mr.

    *SIENNA*Ethan laughed. "What do you mean?"I threw Alexander a curious look.My lips still tingled from his kiss."You can ask your financial manager what I mean."My cheeks felt warm.Was he teasing me?!Ethan gazed at me, intently."Well, Mr. Graves said he was grateful that you were stuck in traffic because thanks to that, he got to enjoy a peaceful moment and savor a cup of coffee," I explained, shyly.Oh my.My boss really hates deception.And this devil was causing me to lie."I see. This man here is exceptionally busy...I wonder if he sleeps at night at all." Ethan smiled. I gazed at Alexander and he was also gazing back at me.His stare made me feel nervous."I'll head back to my office now," I announced."Sure, thank you, Sienna," Ethan said and I quickly left."Miss Vale...you did an excellent job entertaining our guest," Vivian started.I gulped.Had she truly seen us?"I...I assumed today was your day off?"Yeah but I forgot to grab some files home. Don't blame me...I'm a

    *SIENNA*I tried to stay calm, after all I have moved on. I didn’t think about him anymore.He didn’t matter to me.I took a deep breath and put on a small grin on my face.“Mr. Alexander, it’s been a long while,” I said. He looked completely unmoved by my presence. Mm… more than six months, he answered indifferently.I had no desire to stay and continue the conversation, so I placed the cup gently on the table.My boss will be here shortly. Have some coffee,” I told him.I turned to walk away, but he moved quickly and blocked my way.I literally felt my heart pounding against my ribs.I was so unsteady that my heels wobbled and I let out a gasp.As his hands reached out to catch me, I clutched his collar.We remained like that for a moment...I was drawn into his gaze and presence...The AC was running but I was perspiring heavily.I was fully dressed but it felt as if I was exposed.I could practically sense his body heat and it made me feel so flustered and restless.
