The Next Day

Beaumont Urban Estates

Adrian sat through yet another board meeting as he listened halfheartedly to the young executive explaining how well the company had been performing over the past few weeks. These were the types of meetings Adrian had always looked forward to attending. He enjoyed hearing about the company's growth and discussing future strategies. However, today was different. He found hims

    The GalaAs soon as the vehicle came to a halt, the driver unlocked the back door. Adrian was the first to get out. He then turned and held out his hand to Evelina.Evelina placed her hand in his, looking into his eyes with a smile on her face, almost as though she were some love struckteenager.The moment she stepped out of the vehicle, all eyes were on them.As they walked up the long steps leading to the gala, Evelina couldn't help but notice the expensive vehicles surrounding them. They were the kind of cars she knew she could never afford, even if she worked for the rest of her life.But that wasn't what surprised her the most.It was the way people were looking at her.They weren't laughing at her or staring at her with judgment in their eyes. Instead, they looked at her with admiration, something Evelina had not experienced in a very long time.Noticing her nervousness, Adrian held her hand a little tighter.Evelina

    Once again, the two of them sat at the dining table, having dinner together in complete silence. The only sounds in the room came from the chewing of food and the clicking of cutlery against the crockery. The longer they remained that way, the more awkward the silence became."How was work?" Evelina finally asked, breaking the silence between them.It took Adrian a moment to respond. He paused and looked up from his plate, as though he had been pulled from somewhere far away."Work was fine. There are always a few bumps here and there, but I solved them," he answered plainly.He knew quite well that he had not been acting normal. Not only had he had a very busy day, but his ex, Rosalina, had also appeared out of nowhere. The two of them had shared a passionate kiss... one that Adrianwould very much like to forget."Oh, that's good to hear. I went over to the café to see how things were running, and everything was going quite well," Eveli

  • Coffee, Chaos and the Ceo   Chapter eighty-nine: Late night call

    The day at the office had gone by in a blur. Both Adrian and Emelda continued with their work just as they had since the morning, and neither of them had spoken about what had happened earlier between Adrian and Rosalina. Adrian, on the other hand, could not stop feeling guilty.Adrian had never been the type of man who felt the need to explain himself to anyone, especially not an employee such as his secretary. Yet the guilt remained lodged in his throat, and he could not push it away. Every time Emelda asked him a question or reminded him about a task they needed to complete, Adrian felt as though the walls around him were closing in. He wanted nothing more than to scream."Can you just stop that?" Adrian suddenly ordered.Emelda, who had been neatly arranging some files on his desk, froze. Adrian knew she did not need to arrange them. He could tell that this was simply her way of making him feel guilty."I'm sorry, sir. Have I done anything wrong?" his E

    The Next MorningThe Beaumont Urban Estate BuildingLast night had been a complete disaster for Adrian. What had started as a simple night filled with romance had quickly turned into a complete nightmare. Not only had he been forced to revisit painful memories of his first love, Rosalina, but he had also learned something about Evelina that he was struggling to accept.He had believed that Evelina was different... that she was the perfect woman. Yet, after everything that had happened, Adrian could not ignore the fact that she had hidden things from him.Adrian had never been someone who trusted people easily. In the past, he had always viewed others with a certain level of suspicion. Trust was something people had to earn, and even then, he rarely gave it freely.For some reason, however, he had placed Evelina above most people. Perhaps that was why the thought of her hiding things from him bothered him so much.As Adrian walked through his office floor that morning, his employees im

  • Coffee, Chaos and the Ceo   Chapter eighty-seven: Woman in the picture

    Evelina lay on her back, staring at the ceiling above her. She still could not believe what had just happened.After Adrian had returned from work, they had found themselves staring into each other's eyes before ultimately forgiving one another for everything that had happened in Hawaii. But that had also led to them spending the entire night making love to one another.They had broken the very rule that had been the foundation of their marriage. They were only supposed to pretend to be husband and wife in the presence of others. Their marriage was supposed to be nothing more than a contractual agreement on paper.Yet there they were... in Evelina's bed, with Adrian lying beside her."I hope you're not regretting what happened between us." Evelina froze when she heard Adrian's voice. She had thought he was asleep, but apparently, he was not. He was just as wide awake as she was.Evelina was about to open her mouth, perhaps to say something smart, but she pressed her lips together inst

  • Coffee, Chaos and the Ceo   Chapter eighty-six: I want you

    “Uncle, you cannot allow Adrian to do this to me. People are going to laugh at me,” Alex complained to Adrian’s father. As soon as he heard those words come from Alex’s mouth, he reacted. Adrian’s father knew that the family’s reputation was important, and having Alex suspended from the company would cause problems and ultimately lead to scrutiny.“Adrian, you will do no such thing to Alex. He is family!” his father yelled, but Adrian was unmoved. The corners of his mouth twisted into a curve before he turned to look at his secretary, Emelda. The two of them shared a knowing smile that left Adrian’s father and his cousin confused.Adrian turned his attention back to his father and cousin and cleared his throat.“Cousin Alex, I think you were too in a hurry to read just the first part of the agreement. I think you should read further down.”“Why?” Alex asked angrily, and that mad
