Chapter 23

Author: Maria Anita
I returned to my desk near the end of the workday. I finished up my daily tasks and heard Rick come in singing "Oh! Pretty Woman."

"Rick, you'd make it big as a singer," I smiled at him.

"Maybe, maybe, but I like the vibe in this office. Celeste told me everything - I was on the third floor making copies. Are you okay?" he looked at me, waiting for an answer.

"Yes, I am. Thanks."

"Well then, my friend, I'm heading out. My wife called, she got home early and said she has a surprise waiting for me. I love her surprises, I can't wait!"

"Look at you, lucky guy. Have a great night!"

"Thanks. I'll tell you what she was up to at lunch tomorrow. Oh, should we plan something for the weekend? I told her about you and she's excited to meet you."

"That would be great! Can I bring my friend?"

"Of course you can. See you tomorrow, pretty woman!"

I smiled at the nickname he gave me and then heard right behind me, close to my ear:

"Ah, Miss Vergara, what am I going to do with you? My friend whistles a

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S7 Chapter 76

    Rafael's POVI was really curious to know what was so important that Hannah needed my permission for Giovanna to go out with her, but I knew she didn't want to tell me and that the two were getting closer, which was exactly what I wanted, so the best thing was to allow an exception to the punishment. And it got even better with what Hannah offered me. I would have agreed without bargaining, she just had to insist, but she bargained and it was good for me. However, I was curious.But I also still had things to do and decided to go talk to Detective Moreno in person, because I wanted his opinion on the Giovanna situation. Flavian greeted me with surprise, since Domani's inquiry had already been finalized and the bar investigation had also ended, my visit was something new for him."Rafael, what brings you here? Is everything okay?" Flavian stood up to greet me."Flavian, when you're the father of a teenage girl, everything is never okay!" I commented and he laughed."Good thing my little

    Hannah's POVWe spent some time at the perfume shop, with Giovanna selecting the products she wanted while I watched and occasionally asked questions about them. They were delicate and perfectly suited this version of Giovanna I was seeing - shy and very gentle."Gia, look, there's lip gloss from this line too!" I commented, and she looked over quickly."Oh, it's new!" She picked up the gloss with interest and examined it carefully. "Can I get it?""Of course you can! Your dad handed over the card and said, 'for everything you need'. You need lip gloss," I commented, and she laughed. "Get two, they have different shades." She chose the glosses with a smile. "You know he's shy, right?" I asked, and she looked at me, turning red."H-h-he? Is... what are you talking about?" She was very embarrassed."That you were upset about the awkward compliment Anderson gave you." I stared at her."Oh, Hannah... it's just that I thought he was going to tell me I looked beautiful and... I don't know...

    Hannah's POVWe passed by Rafael, who stood there stunned, looking at Giovanna and me as if we were two teenagers he didn't know how to handle. I linked my arm through Giovanna's, and we left Rafael and Anderson standing there with dumbfounded expressions."Well, boss, your life has gotten pretty complicated lately!" Anderson commented with an amused tone.Lunch was peaceful, filled with random conversations and many compliments to the chef. But when dessert time came, Rafael himself gave me the opening I needed."Gia, I registered you for school. Get ready to go back to classes tomorrow morning. You'll take some tests to assess your knowledge level, but the principal will explain everything tomorrow. You'll need to study and catch up on the material from the time you were away," Rafael explained, and Giovanna simply nodded."Rafa, since Giovanna is going back to school tomorrow, could you let her go out with me this afternoon? She needs a few things," I asked, and he looked at me seri

    Hannah's POVI was feeling amazing! No one thought it was possible, but I went there and tamed the little wildcat! Though I shouldn't celebrate too soon; who knows if she was plotting something. But I wouldn't think like that, because the day seemed to be smiling at me, since at lunchtime Fred stopped by my desk with good news."Hannah, I'm going to have lunch with my beautiful wife and I'll be out of the hospital for the rest of the day. You can take the afternoon off.""Is this a joke, Fred?" I asked and he laughed."No, Hannah, I'm serious. It's because you're very competent and keep everything in order. You can go. Just keep your phone on; if any emergency comes up, I'll call you," Fred answered with a smile."You're the best boss in the world, you know that?" I said and he laughed more."I know! Make the most of it, because when my babies are born I'll need you to work more," he reminded me. We had already talked about this and I had no problem taking on the responsibilities he wo

    Giovanna's POVAnderson had been so nice to me last night. We talked, colored those books together, and started reading the book Hannah brought. He told me so many times that my parents were good people who loved me that I was almost convinced I had been wrong about Ireland, Aisling, and John. But if I was wrong, why did I miss them?Still, of everything Anderson said, what stuck most in my head was about my hair. He said he liked how my hair was. That he thought pink was interesting. And he was an adult after all, not some stupid teenager. In the morning I spent some time looking at myself in the mirror and saw he was right; I did look sick with that weird green in my hair.Then we had breakfast with my mom, who was all excited about her new job and new boss. It was a peaceful breakfast, and my mom gave me a really tight hug before leaving. I liked her tight hugs. She did the same to Anderson and he got all shy. I was noticing he was kind of shy, and it looked so good on him, being al
