Chapter 49

Author: Maria Anita
I was exhausted. The week had been chaotic, and I wasn't sleeping well, crying myself to sleep every night. Having talked to Alexander yesterday hadn't helped either; it had left me even more devastated.

"Good morning, friend! How are you?" Mel walked into the kitchen and held my face between her hands, examining me.

"I'm a wreck, Mel. The makeup is just hiding the dark circles. I'm feeling so tired!"

We heard the intercom ring, and Mel went to answer it while I finished giving Peter his breakfast. I was distracted watching my little one; he was my greatest love, and just looking at him calmed my heart. I knew I would have the strength to move forward because of him. He looked at me with a beautiful big smile and those bright violet eyes, and my heart swelled with love.

"You're mommy's love, young man!" I said to him, and he clapped his hands and blew me a kiss. My smile grew wider.

"Cat, it's for you." Mel came from the door holding an enormous arrangement of red tulips.

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S7 Chapter 77

    Anderson's POVI was really flustered about Giovanna. I wanted to tell her she looked absolutely stunning, but she was just a sixteen-year-old girl and my boss's daughter. I had no right to see anything more than a child in front of me, and I couldn't say how beautiful I thought she was. I mean, maybe I could have, but I couldn't come up with a compliment in my head that was appropriate, respectful, and suitable, because all I could think was "wow, she's absolutely gorgeous."I had seen her at the bar a few times before all this, and she really was beautiful! But now I was looking after her and realized she was a girl who was a bit confused, but kind and even fun. What I noticed was that she had been led astray by fake people who pretended to be friends just to hurt her, out of envy or simply for the pleasure of harming someone. Then again, every teenager goes through their moment of confusion. But I was taking care of her and would honor the trust Rafael had placed in me.However, I h

    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
