S5-Chapter 118

작가: Maria Anita
Rick’s POV

I looked at Anabel beside me in the car, she seemed so worn out. We had arranged to meet our friends at the club and have lunch there. She liked the club, whenever we went she would get excited and loved sitting by the pool watching the children play. I would see this and get my hopes up, maybe she would decide to have a child with me soon. I was rooting for it.

"Pretty girl, what's wrong?" I asked again. I was getting worried, she seemed a bit sulky, almost as if she were sick.

"I don't know. I think what I ate yesterday at the Social Club didn't sit well with me either. And then there was that unpleasantness with Joyce and Roxanne." She made a face like something was bothering her.

"You've been under a lot of stress, you even seem like you're getting sick. I'm worried, maybe we could ask Molina to stop by the house and take a look at you," I suggested.

"That's not necessary. If it's anything, it won't be more than a cold. I can handle it. And a little sun will do me good."

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S6-Chapter 29

    Melissa’s POVWhen they finally closed the last folder, I was feeling a bit dizzy from all the medication and hospital supply names. But Alvaro and Fernando launched into a conversation about a new drug someone in the world was testing for Alzheimer's, and that was enough for me; let them have their technical discussion about a medication that promised spectacular advances."Tagalong, want to go for a walk while these two debate who'll be the next Nobel Prize winner in medicine?" I invited Hannah, who looked as bored as I was, and we left the apartment planning to take a walk in a nearby park. "I thought you guys would have the weekend off after working so late yesterday," I commented while we waited for the elevator."It seems Dr. Molina wants to get rid of the board quickly," she smiled."Well, then I guess I should get used to it," I replied as I stepped into the elevator."You two had plans yesterday, didn't you?" she asked."Nothing important," I smiled."Fernando is very focused

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S6-Chapter 28

    Melissa’s POVI sat on the couch with a steaming mug of coffee. It was a beautiful Saturday morning, bright sunlight streaming through the balcony door. I woke up early, taken a shower, put on comfortable clothes, but I was still feeling slightly uneasy. The uneasiness that something wasn't right. I was wondering if Fernando and I were becoming the type of couple that gets comfortable as the years pass and the relationship becomes monotonous and predictable.We had been together for so long! We had already passed that exciting phase of conquest and discoveries, we had discovered so much together and knew each other so well we could perfectly predict how each would react in any situation. That was good, it was calm and peaceful, but it also made us complacent, as if there was no need to fight for each other's love because it was already guaranteed.But the thing was, love needed to be cultivated, cared for, you couldn't just leave it there. Besides, it was necessary to pay attention to

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S6-Chapter 27

    Melissa’s POVI dropped Fernando off at the hospital and went home. He would still be a while, and I wanted to prepare a surprise for him. But on the way, I kept thinking about that invitation he had received. He didn't show it to me, but he certainly knew it wasn't a good idea to bring me to a party where that little tramp would definitely be. Lucky for me, Hannah had become an ally; I was sure she would find out more about it and tell me.In the building's garage, I took the bags out of the car and happened to notice Rafael's car. I hadn't seen him or Giovanna in days. It was strange because we used to run into each other in the building all the time, our schedules coincided, but lately I hadn't seen either of them. And Giovanna wasn't texting me anymore either. Was she still grounded? Maybe I should stop by and see if they were okay. With that thought, I walked to the elevator lobby and ran right into Rafael."Rafa! Hi! I was just about to stop by your apartment," I said, greeting h

    Hannah’s POVI thought my boss's girlfriend was amazing, the type who shows up and solves problems. And there was a problem on this floor that stuck-up little woman who kept hitting on my boss had found a way to keep showing up at the hospital. I'd seriously considered calling Melissa to warn her, but I didn't want to seem nosy. So when the receptionist told me she was coming up, I didn't hesitate; I ran to wait for her at the elevator door and told her everything.And when she threw that little nobody, as she called her, out of the meeting room, I couldn't help it; I laughed right in that evil creature's face. I did exactly as Melissa instructed, grabbed the little thing by the arm and led her to the elevator. She was rubbing her forehead, as if she was in pain. Dr. Molina and the other man looked from her to me, somewhat confused."Poor thing, she's a bit dizzy," I said and shrugged, pushing her toward the man who was with her. The elevator opened and they got in. Mission accomplishe

    Melissa’s POVThe week was already coming to an end and Fernando had been working late every day, but at least I knew it would only be for a short while and that little tramp wasn't all over him like ants on sugar. So I was relaxed, and to avoid feeling too lonely in the apartment, I went to Catherine's house every day after work.But that today I managed to leave the office early because I had something to take care of. I went straight to the hospital; I needed to do something about Fernando's assistant. That girl looked like she hadn't even left high school yet; I needed to rescue her urgently. I even got startled when I stepped out of the elevator and ran right into Hannah."Oh, Hannah! You scared me," I said with my hand on my chest, and she pulled me to a corner near the window."Sorry, Melissa, but I need to warn you," she whispered, though there was no one around."What is it?" I whispered back playfully."She's here!" She continued whispering."Who's here, Hannah?" I was a bit

    Jennifer’s POVUgh, what a headache! That crazy Melissa really got me good. But I still didn’t understand how I fell; it was like I tripped over my own feet. And she took advantage of that. But I'd better stay away from her, she was crazy, completely crazy, and my uncle's plan was terrible.But I would love to win Fernando over and get shares in this pharmaceutical company. The problem was that Fernando hated me, it was obvious. And I was not a doormat to be kicked around and trampled on. I'd better think about whether this would really be worth it or if it would be better to leave this story behind and find someone else in the department to do my job. Ugh, what a headache!As soon as I arrived at the pharmaceutical company, I was informed that my uncle wanted to talk to me. He must have been in a terrible mood, because he certainly hadn't gotten what he wanted with Melissa. But I had to put up with it, so I went to his office."You wanted to talk to me, uncle?" I asked when I entered.
