S3-Chapter 112

Author: Maria Anita
Patrick’s POV

I had been trying so hard to understand where things went wrong between Virginia and me. Lately, all I did was try to fix whatever had broken between us. And that was exactly the problem - I did not even know what the issue was. The only thing I knew was that she was constantly irritated and impatient. Everything seemed to bother and stress her out.

I was so overwhelmed by this that I had been working on autopilot. I had not even bothered to get to know my new assistant. Vaguely, I realized she reminded me of someone, but maybe it was just my imagination since I could not remember who. However, she seemed quite efficient. In the two days she had been here, it was as if she was not even around - I barely saw her, but the work was getting done, and I always found everything well organized on my desk.

Perhaps I should invite her to lunch and get to know her better, since she would be my right hand at the company. I liked to know well those who worked with me, and I really en

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 103

    Rick’s POVI stood before a man I had prepared myself to confront, someone I viewed as the enemy. But everything there seemed strange and out of place, from his voice sounding urgent to his extremely formal posture, somehow more peaceful than before. I didn't see in his gaze the animosity I'd seen last time. But I was completely on guard, there was no way I could relax in this man's presence. He was treacherous, and I wouldn't lower my defenses."I just need to talk to you," he asked, and I motioned for him to sit down."I'm surprised you'd come looking for me openly after spying on us," I stared him down, making it clear I knew what he'd been doing."Yes, I spied," he admitted with a half-smile. "But look, you're Attila's son and you're dating my daughter...""Your daughter? Come on, Lionel, be honest for once. You don't care about Anabel, you never have. You just want the money. You don't even believe you're her father." I threw it in his face. He listened and responded calmly."Imag

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 102

    Rick’s POVMelissa didn't hold back, she exposed all of Ilana's and that Vivian's scheme for everyone to see at the Social Club. While I drove, Anabel sat very quietly beside me, as if she wasn't even there. There was a certain sadness about her, quite different from what I'd imagined, she didn't seem happy to be free of the gossip that had haunted her for so long. And it stayed that way the entire drive, until we reached the apartment."Anabel," I called when we entered the bedroom.She was heading to the bathroom and turned to look at me. I closed the distance between us and gently placed my hands on her shoulders."Are you okay?" I asked carefully, and she let out a heavy breath."I am. I'm just thinking... all of this, all these years, there wasn't a single day those videos didn't haunt me, especially the one from the college party. I didn't know what had happened." She started crying, and I hugged her."But now you know, you know it was all set up against you, you know you didn't

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 101

    Ilana’s POVI arrived home feeling quite pleased with myself. All I had to do was wait for the news to break and act shocked and horrified at the atrocity Anabel had committed.I was absolutely brilliant this time! I'd learned that Anabel's lawyer had gone out of town - I overheard it at the club this morning. His wife was there, and when I heard the last name, I immediately found out who he was and kept my ears open. I listened to everything she told her friend, and the only useful detail was that the lawyer had traveled for work and would be unreachable. That was when the idea struck me.First, I called his secretary to confirm this, then I paid my manicurist to call Anabel, pretending to be one of the lawyer's secretaries. His firm was large enough that she'd never suspect anything. The manicurist set up a meeting, telling her the lawyer was waiting and she needed to come quickly. It was urgent and she had to come alone, since Lionel was keeping tabs on her friends and families. She

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 100

    Vivian’s POVWhat a mess I've gotten myself into! My mother was going to kill me when I told her I was arrested. And whose fault is it? That wannabe soap opera villain. Ilana was a real venomous snake, I should have known she'd get me into trouble, but the money she gave me was so good.The police officers took me to the station and sat me down in a small room with a table and four chairs, closed the door and left me inside. At least they didn't handcuff me.But seriously, what a night from hell! The lawyer guy wasn't all bad, he was actually kind of interesting, but what Melissa pulled... that got me into deep trouble. Come to think of it, getting arrested right at that moment wasn't so bad. If I'd stayed at the Social Club, Joyce and that bitter Roxanne would probably have beaten me up right there. After everything I'd already seen those two do to Anabel, I wouldn't doubt it.The door opened and in walked Melissa and the detective. And what a detective, I have to say... I'd definitel

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 99

    Flavian Moreno's POVI wanted to personally oversee the stakeout in front of Isidore's house. Something about this whole story didn't make sense. I believed everything Vivian had told us, including that she didn't know anything else, but something was bothering me. It was what we call cop's intuition - after so many years on the force, it was both a curse and a blessing. It could be everything or it could be nothing, but the fact remained that something was nagging at me, and I wanted to see the situation firsthand.While waiting for things to unfold, I kept thinking about Vivian. That girl was completely crazy. Even after I told her she shouldn't go through with that absurd plan, even after I warned her to make up some excuse and get out of this mess, she said she didn't care. She was certain her friend would at most just put the lawyer to sleep so she could leave early, so she'd see it through and take the money her friend had promised. This really pissed me off!"Relax, detective, i

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 98

    Anabel’s POVMelissa stared at Joyce and Roxanne for a moment, then looked at my arm. Roxanne's nail marks were there, covered in blood. I looked down and couldn't help but think that these gel nails that were so fashionable were real weapons - they could cut like a razor!"Come on, I'll ask a nurse to clean that up for you right at the table." Melissa put her arm around my shoulder and led me away. "I'm sorry, Ana. I never imagined those two would pull something today of all days.""They always pull something. Why would today be any different?" I asked."Girl, don't you know? Joyce is getting engaged. That is why the family is all dressed up; she hooked an heir from the financial market," Melissa told me, and I kept wondering how she knew so much. The most important things and the most random details, she always knew.We returned to the table and Melissa asked a club employee to bring a nurse."What happened?" Rick stood up, already examining my arm before I could sit down."Nothing
