Craving My Father's Best Friend Chapter 63: Cut Off
~ Ronan's Pov ~ “Come in,” I responded to the knock on the door.Mavis walked into my office, both hands in his pockets.“Hey, Dad. You wanted to see me?”“Yeah. Sit down,” I said, my face straight on my computer before I looked up at him.“Are you feeling any better now?”“For what?” he asked, confused.“You told me you needed some time off because of some things. Remember?”“Oh, yeah. I did need some time off.”I noticed the way he sat in the chair, unbalanced and uncomfortable. His eyes were on the laptop in such a way that one would think they were on me. Mavis had always done this anytime he was hiding something.“So, do you feel any better? You know you have a company to work at, right? You don't necessarily have to oversee this one since I'm here.”“Yeah. I know, Dad. I just like it here in New York. Plus, Ruby likes it here too.”“Hmm.”“What's wrong? You're acting weird.”I relaxed into my chair, folding my hands. “Like you want to say something to me and you're waiting for t

~ Ronan's Pov ~ I watched her closely as she gently opened her eyes, scanning the room before they landed on me.“Hey, baby,” I said softly, touching her cheeks.“Hi.”She tried to sit up straight, but I prevented her from doing so. I helped her adjust the pillow properly, gently enough so it wouldn't shake the drip.“How are you feeling? We brought you to the hospital when you collapsed in the elevator.”“Oh… yeah. I-I'm sorry I didn't—”“It's okay, don't say anything, baby. The doctor said it's from anxiety and you had a panic attack. You're on a drip for strength because you were weak, baby.”She placed a hand on her chest and then on her head before holding mine. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.“You just need to rest.”I was worried sick. I didn't waste any time when I heard she'd collapsed in the elevator. What I didn't understand was why, and what? What was she afraid of? Why had she gone into shock and had a panic attack?I looked at her, studying her to find o
Craving My Father's Best Friend Chapter 61: Lies We Tell
~ Anyssa's Pov ~ I can't get over that night. Over the way he held me. Grabbed me like I was some kind of thing. Like I wasn't even human. It baffles me because this person used to be my best friend—my first love—and now I can't see him as anything more than a monster.“Nyssa!” I bolted upright in my chair before looking up at Ronan.“Oh, I'm sorry. Did you need anything?”He narrowed his eyes at me before introducing the woman beside him. A brunette in her late thirties stood there, dressed in a beautiful burgundy slim-fitted dress and jewelry that I guessed was expensive because it looked the part.“Are you okay?” he asked, worry etched on his face. I can't tell him about what Mavis did last night. I can't do that. He wouldn't be able to take it.“It's nothing. I just didn't get much sleep last night because I was working on some stuff.”He nodded, acting weird himself before introducing me to our guest.“This is Patty. Patty West. She'll be the new managing director.”“What? I tho

~ Anyssa's Pov ~ I froze as Ronan approached us. How was I going to explain what he was doing here... and with flowers? I looked back at Mavis, who had a confused look on his face.Fuck.“I just came back from a party and thought to check up on Nyssa,” Ronan said.“And the flowers?” Mavis pointed out.“Oh... these are for my date. She forgot to take them when I dropped her off.”My racing heart finally calmed down when the look on Mavis's face became neutral. I swallowed and slowly turned to Ronan, about to act like this was all a coincidence.“You didn't have to come see me, sir.” I hated calling him that, knowing he was more than that.“It's okay, Nyssa. I just needed you to send those documents you promised to send today. They're important, and I need you to work on them and send them, okay?”He looked at me, and then back at his son. This was weird. This was so weird, having father and son both at my place. And what the fuck did Mavis just say?“Alright then. Oh, and Mavis, what

~ Anyssa’s Pov ~ She looked at me for a moment, confused, I could tell.“Was this why you were acting weird? For a man? Come on now, Emily. You're a beautiful woman. I didn't expect this from you.”“Are you out of your mind? You—”“That's enough,” I said, walking closer to her. “I won't let you insult me in a restroom because of a man. No way. If you really want Kaden to yourself, then walk up to him and ask him for a date. Like I said, we are just friends.”I walked out of the restroom, not giving a fuck, and immediately bumped into Ronan. He pulled me behind a pillar where no one could see us easily.“What are you doing? Let me go!” I whisper-yelled.“What are you doing with him? Why are you here with him?!”“Why are you here with her?! You think I wouldn't see the little brunette you have wrapped around your finger?”He narrowed his eyes at me and suddenly grinned. “Are you jealous, Doll? Are you jealous that I have another woman?”Is he kidding me right now? Another woman? Well,
Craving My Father's Best Friend Chapter 58: Plus One
~ Anyssa's Pov ~ My doorbell rang simultaneously with my toaster. I was going to rot in bed tonight or in a chair watching cartoons. I was super exhausted from work. Thankfully, Ruby had been so busy that I hadn't been disturbed.I took out the toasted bread, poured juice into a cup, and ran to the door. I opened it and stood face to face with Kaden, wearing a black suit.“What are you doing here?” I asked.“I need a favor,” he said. I stepped aside, allowing him to come in. His hands were occupied with a…dress?“What's wrong?”“I need you to be my plus one to a party.”“What? How? Tonight?” I rambled.“Yes, tonight. I know this is too soon, but I need you, Anyssa. Please. My date bailed on me at the last minute, and I need a plus one because I'm one of the expected guests.”“Why can't you go alone?”He sighed and placed the dress on the couch. “Because this party requires a plus one to be allowed in. I don't usually do this, and I know how hasty this is, but I'm asking just this onc
