Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch Chapter 155
"Well, well, if it isn't little Sardines remembering her old friends," the voice on the other end teased."Michael, darling, I never forget my old friends. You guys are family, honey! How are you?" Virginia's eyes were sparkling."I'm good. Just need a girlfriend to comfort me since my friend went off to catch some sun in Malibu," Michael referred to Levy's departure."Don't be so dramatic!" Virginia scolded. "But I actually called to tell you something I know will cheer you up.""Oh really? I'm listening.""That fool Henry really messed up and Sam is single now," Virginia revealed."Nooo! Are you serious, Sardines?""Yep, Henry's out of Samantha's life.""Sardines, you're the best! But I gotta go now. We'll talk later." Michael quickly hung up.It wasn't long before Sam's phone rang. She picked it up and showed us the screen - it was Michael. She put it on speaker:"Michael, what a surprise. Everything okay?""My queen, I'm dying of sadness. You know my friend left, I'm feeling so lon

On Monday, we dropped Peter off at daycare, and I took the opportunity to inform them that Alexander was Peter's father and could pick him up too. When we arrived at the office, Alexander kept pulling me toward his office."Alexander, my office is on the other side," I reminded him.He groaned and closed his eyes, saying he'd forgotten. I saw Rick leaving my office with a smile on his face."Good morning, power couple!" Rick was excited. "Hope you two don't mind, but I went back to working with my old boss. I'm not in the mood to sit in the front office listening to you two moaning.""Rick..." I said, shocked."Oh, come on, pretty woman, I know exactly what goes down in the president's office.""He's not wrong, my angel." Alexander had a mischievous smile plastered on his face."Relax, friend, I've already moved everything back," Samantha informed without leaving her desk.When I entered my office, everything was indeed in order, and as every Monday, there was a tulip arrangement on th

The next thing I remember is jolting awake on Alexander's office couch. Looking around, I saw Samantha holding my hand, Margaret coming in with a tea tray, Patrick speaking nervously on the phone, Rick also on his cell phone, and Alexander desperately yelling at Daniel, the head of security."Alexander, she's awake," Samantha called, and he rushed over."My angel, I've already called the police. Lygia and the girls are on their way. It seems Dennis and Daniel were the traitors. They've both disappeared," Alexander explained through tears. "I've also asked Dr. Molina to come check on you.""Alexander, my son, he's just a little boy..." I was panicking."We'll find him safe and sound, my angel. We will," Alexander said, looking into my eyes. "I need you to stay calm for our baby in your belly, but I don't want to take my eyes off you. Let me handle finding Peter.""This won't knock you out, dear, but it will calm you down," Margaret offered me the tea.It wasn't long before Alexander's o

Alexander’s POVMy son had been kidnapped for over twelve hours now. Since the moment Lygia called, I had had to keep myself under control. I wouldn't lose it because I had to find my son. And I needed to take care of Cat.I had already activated all my possible contacts. Many people were looking for my son, but I was still thinking if there was anything else I could do. Patrick and Rick arranged for beds, food, and clothes. The executive floor had been transformed into a search command center, and none of us wanted to leave. Rick had set up a large conference table with chairs around it in the middle of my office, so many people were working there."Alexander." I heard Mari's voice and went to hug her. "Son, stay calm and have faith. Peter will be found safe.""I'm so glad you came, Mari. I feel like I'm about to lose it." She was like a mother to me, and all I needed was her here to support me."You won't lose control!" she said. "You're a strong and intelligent man. Being nervous an

Alexander’s POVI went back to Catherine and hugged her. When the elevator opened, I turned her toward it. She ran out to hug her parents, just as Melissa rushed toward hers. Catherine's father approached me."Son, thank you for sending for us," Mr. Anthony said, his expression showing the weariness of someone who hadn't slept and was very worried."No need to thank me, father-in-law!" I said, accepting his hug.Mrs. Selina came closer with red eyes. I hugged her and felt that maternal warmth. I greeted Melissa's parents and briefly explained the situation. Dr. Molina had taken Cat to her room and was examining her.I called Catherine's parents and said we needed to talk. I had to bring them up to speed on everything. We went to Cat's room, and Dr. Molina said she was doing better before leaving."You sent for my parents?" Catherine asked with teary eyes."Yes. I called Larson and explained the situation. I sent the company jet so they could get here quickly," I explained. "Cat, I can

I was sitting next to my mother when Patrick came in. He told us everything that had happened, about the call from that crazy woman, and the more he spoke, the more I cried. After he left, Mrs. Agnes, Mel's mother, told my mother who Anna Caroline was, and Virginia informed them both about what was going on. It was too much information to process.My phone rang and I quickly answered it. I recognized Dennis's voice on the other end saying:"Don't say anything. If there's anyone near you, leave and only let me know when you're alone."I lowered the phone and started moving away from the room. When I reached the door, Melissa called out to me."Cat, what's wrong?""I'm going to see Alexander, Mel. I want to spend some time with him," I said and left the room.When I reached the corridor between the elevators and the meeting room, I started speaking again."Where's my son? Why did you do this?""Easy, kitten. Your son is still fine, but let's make things easier, because your lover won't a

Alexander’s POVWhen I left the terrace, I was much more composed. I spent about forty minutes up there thinking and praying to God to watch over my son. When I entered my office, I asked if there was any news, and they said no. Then I decided to spend some time with Catherine and see how she was doing. I went into Patrick's office but didn't see her."Where's Catherine?" I asked loudly."What do you mean? She said she was going to stay with you for a while," Melissa said, frowning."She's not with me, she's not in my office, and she's not at reception. Where is she?" I growled."Calm down, Alexander, she might have gone to the break room," Tess said, and immediately everyone went looking for Cat."Sam, have you seen Cat?" I asked when I returned to reception."Sorry, Alexander, but I haven't. The reception's been crazy," Samantha replied worriedly. "What's wrong?""I can't find her." After I spoke, I saw Tess coming back toward me."The emergency exit door is unlocked.""No, no, no. I

Alan looked worried, as if the news was bad. He introduced the man accompanying him before sitting down."This is Detective Novaes from Internal Affairs. He's in charge of investigating your parents' accident," Alan introduced."Mr. Miller, I regret to inform you that the helicopter accident that claimed your parents' lives was deliberately caused. We found that the disconnection of the tail rotor pedals in the pilot's cabin caused the accident. The connections were intentionally cut. The helicopter had undergone maintenance at the manufacturer and had been cleared for flight just two days before. It was sabotage. I know this is a difficult time, but whoever is orchestrating this kidnapping might also be connected to the helicopter sabotage.""My parents were murdered? My parents were coldly and cruelly murdered?" I could no longer contain my tears and despair."Detective Novaes, we want everyone involved to rot in jail. Whatever you need, we can help," Patrick took over the conversati

Samantha’s POVI was relieved to see my mother was okay. It was incredibly lucky that Enzo ran into her - one of those things that nobody can explain, where some call it luck and others divine providence. But I can definitely say this kid saved me again. After they told everything that happened at the mall and Henry confirmed that the Nicole who was with my mother was the same Nicole who was his ex-girlfriend, everything made sense.And we were heading to the police station - my mother, Enzo, Henry, and me. Honestly, I just wanted to go home, but Flavian asked us to come there, so there was no way around it."Henry, why did Flavian ask us to go to the police station?" I asked, still not accepting that I couldn't go home."Sam, you were the victim of Romulus's setup. It was a fake kidnapping, true, but clearly intended to force you to go to him. Plus, your mother's phone was stolen and used for this." Henry repeated the same thing, but I felt he was hiding something from me."I want to

Flavian’s POVI had to say, this raid on Pipote Hill was only supposed to serve three arrest warrants for homicide, but it turned into a complete mess. Three drug dealers dead and two cops wounded, all because they wouldn't let us in. It was all because of that punk Sandro who decided to set up a drug spot here. I only decided to serve these warrants personally snice one of them was Sandro's drug spot manager, and I wanted information about this Romulus guy.At least no civilians were hit. People keep talking about stray bullets, but there was no such thing - there are only bullets that find their targets, and innocent people became those targets, which really upsets me. But fortunately, this time no innocent civilians were shot. Though one of the subjects named in the warrants died - he was one of Sandro's soldiers. We arrested the other two. That was six fewer criminals on the streets."Let's move out, team!" called the military police sergeant who came to support us. "Detective, I t

Samantha’s POVI was getting increasingly nervous. As the car moved toward my destination, I felt more helpless, scared, and distressed. The taxi driver, a very kind gentleman, watched me through the rearview mirror while keeping his eyes on traffic. He drove slowly and carefully, perhaps due to his age, making sure not to cause any accident.My phone rang and I grabbed it from my purse - it was Enzo. I couldn't answer him, I just couldn't. But he persisted. He always did, and I always answered. I thought it through - if I didn't answer, it would raise suspicions. Sure, Michael must have returned to the company, but he probably thought I was in another department and wouldn't be alarmed yet. Maybe he was still looking for me inside the building. So, it was better to answer Enzo.When he told me he was with my mother, I couldn't believe it. Then he put her on the line, and I heard her voice. I couldn't hold back anymore, started crying, and explained that Romulus had called me from her

Enzo’s POVBeing a student was getting harder and harder. The English teacher decided to make us read a book that was almost impossible to find. I had to trek all the way across town because out of all the bookstores in the malls, only this one had it. Everyone was complaining that they couldn't buy the book because they couldn't find it. I spent two days on the phone and finally tracked it down. So I rushed to secure my copy to avoid getting a zero on the test that the teacher had already warned us about.But since I was at the mall, I might as well take a little walk around. I bought the book first - I had reserved it, but you never know if someone might accidentally sell my copy, so I went to the bookstore first. When I left, I was walking through the food court when I spotted Aunt Pearl at a café nearby. I had to say hello."What a coincidence! Aunt Pearl, how are you?" I approached and noticed she was with a younger woman who was pretty but strange-looking."Enzo, darling, what a

Samantha’s POVMy bachelorette party was the most fun event I'd ever been to, despite the snake incident. Erica and Emilia had really outdone themselves. However, it wasn't as enjoyable for Henry, who was tense and worried when he came to pick me up.At home, he told me about his suspicion that Isabella had sent the snake, and I was surprised - I hadn't thought that insufferable woman would be so brazen.We spent Sunday at home, resting and just enjoying each other's company. It was nice to have that peaceful moment with him, knowing the upcoming week would be hectic with wedding preparations, even though everything was already set.This week, I needed to get ahead with all my work since I'd be on my honeymoon with Henry the following week. Starting Thursday, I wouldn't be working as I'd be at the beach house overseeing all the wedding setup. I was so busy that during lunch, I just had a quick snack while working and turned Manu away when she came for afternoon coffee.Then my phone st

Romulus’s POVLittle Samantha must have been crazy if she thought she could ghost me like that. I've called several times and she won't answer, where could she be hiding? I needed to teach her a lesson, but this week I couldn't put my plan into action since Sandro needed me to check the accounts at his drug spot.Sandro wanted me to move to the hill, but to be honest, I preferred little Nicole's apartment, it was better located. But there's no way around it, I made a deal with him and he was the boss. He only gave me one more week to sort things out with little Samantha.I would use this week to resolve my situation with little Samantha and deal with little Nicole too. I was running out of patience with her, but it had to look like an accident, after all, she's Sandro's sister. I was going to do the job and blame the old man, but the idiot got arrested and was even trying to go back on our deal. He wanted little Samantha all to himself - that was pure greed.But little Nicole was still

Henry’s POVI arrived at the Social Club with Edward and Enzo. The guys had reserved a room there and they'd gone all out - they'd set up a room with a pool table, poker table, and arcade games, leather sofas scattered around, and a 1950s-style bar stocked with every kind of drink. This was going to be fun and relaxing."So, ready for your last bachelor party bender?" Patrick asked as soon as I arrived."I thought this day would never come." Alexander approached and handed me a glass.Only then did I notice they were all wearing the same t-shirt - a black one with a cartoon of me being dragged by a rope tied to my foot by a cartoon of Sam, with "game over" written below. These guys were acting like kindergarteners.As if the t-shirts weren't enough, they had prepared several activities, and they all involved lots of alcohol. I probably wouldn't remember my own name the next day.I was already slightly drunk when I saw Flavian answer a call and slip out of the room. When he came back, h

Samantha’s POVThe plans for the night were explained, and the girls decided to start the games. Soon we were all seated, and a bowl with folded papers was placed in front of me."Let's start with the lingerie, everyone grabs your box," Erica said, kicking things off."Okay, Sam, you'll draw a paper and read what's written. To win the gift, you have to guess who experienced the situation described in the paper. If you guess wrong, you'll have to share a situation that happened to you. When you open the present, you'll keep your eyes closed and feel around to figure out what it is. Got it?" Emilia explained the rules of the game."Oh my god! Alright, let's begin," I said and drew the first paper. "On my first time, my boyfriend and I watched some movies to learn because it was his first time too. When we tried to do a position we saw in a movie, I accidentally kicked him in the face, and he fell off the bed and broke his nose. I ended the night still a virgin and in a hospital making up

Samantha’s POVThe week had finally ended, and it had been exhausting. Romulus kept calling and threatening me, but Flavian said the wiretap was active and they were gathering lots of evidence, including proof of other crimes Romulus was committing, so he'd be arrested again soon. But it was horrible to keep getting his calls and hearing threats, not knowing what to expect.As if that wasn't enough, ever since he found out that Edward's sisters were organizing my bachelorette party, Henry had been pestering me to know what they had planned, why I'd let them organize the party, and if there would be any kind of wild rituals, as he put it. I assured him I knew nothing about it, but that he shouldn't worry. However, he kept suggesting every five minutes that we should ditch our friends and family and spend time just the two of us. He was driving me crazy with this whole thing, but I wouldn't budge - I was having my bachelorette party, and it would be fun, he'd just have to deal with it.I
