Entwined with the CEO Chapter 13. Girl for tonight
"You can call me Madeleine," she said in a very charming tone, enough to seize Señor Leonardo's attention."Wow! You are Madeleine, my son's precious girl?" Señor Leonardo asked with genuine amazement. "You're stunning, lady. Can I give you a hug?"Madeleine blushed lightly at the commendation and offered him an affirmative nod before looking over to make sure Mr. Harrington looked fine.She stepped toward the old man, and he enveloped her in a big bear hug which she didn't mind as much. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sir.""No. Just call me dad." he smiled."Sure, dad." she chuckled lightly until Mr. Harrington finally cleared his throat, breaking the moment between them."Hi, darling!" Madeleine greeted him, which made him smile."I thought you weren't coming," he said, slightly disappointed but still smiling."Well, I'm here now, aren't I?" she teased back and rolled her eyes playfully.Madeleine beeline toward him and gave him a kiss on his lips which caught him off guard for a sec

"If you don't mind me asking…." Connor trailed off. "Did you honestly prepare for this night?"He was curious and almost chuckled at the fact that Madeleine could organize herself fully. He wondered how she did it all in just one evening."And when did you buy your dress?" he added and attempted a smile as he saw Madeleine's cheeks reddened. It looks adorable but also a little odd."Oh, don't worry. I bought this dress last year... from my friend," she reasoned, hoping to sound convincing.He nodded in acknowledgment.The night was well-spent, especially for the both of them, with many storied shared between each other. And even if they're just pretending their relationship, the passion for both of them is still there. From the way they talked. The way their eyes were locked on each other while smiling. But then, Madeleine strived to accept that this was just a game that only existed because of money, filled with nothing but superficial.*****TODAY was the moment Madeleine had been w
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 1. First encounter
'Oh my god! I'm late!' Madeleine thought as she sprinted to her destination in record time. However, no matter how fast or hard she ran, it could not obliterate that she was still late for almost fifteen minutes. She sighed in frustration before finally halting at the front of Descartes Company to compose her nerves before entering through the access.With that settled, she strode past everyone and went straight into the threshold, but suddenly she bumped into someone's chest, compelling herself to emit an undignified squeak."Oh my gosh! Why don't you watch where you're going, moron!" Madeleine clamored with utmost exasperation as she glanced up to see who she had run into. And then she saw a man— a bewitching man clad in a black professional suit with his arms crossed over his broad chest while looking at her with a very annoyed expression which did nothing to appease Madeleine's sentiment. He may be exquisite from the way of his outfit and his face; Madeleine was still upset for bu
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 2. Interviewed by the CEO
"Small world, Ms. Grumpy." Madeleine felt extreme embarrassment as she recollected how she called him a moron. That was the most unpleasant thing she'd ever done to someone superior to her. 'Seriously? I called this man a moron right inside of his own company?' She blamed herself but still strived to stay calm in front of him. Not now that she doesn't have the right to be coarse again, or else the CEO will kick her out of this place for sure. And she doesn't want that to ensue. "I-I'm sorry, Sir... I didn't mean to be rude to you a while ago." "Understood. You're avoiding being late, aren't you?" he asked, staring at her lips like he wanted to kiss them. "Yes, S-sir..." Madeleine trailed off. "But you were already late that time, weren't you?" he pressed. Madeleine swallowed thickly. This man sure could be intimidating if he wanted to be. Nevertheless, he did look somewhat enticing too. She nodded slightly before averting her gaze toward her feet and mumbled something incoheren
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 3. First day
"Don't look at me too long 'cause you're so beautiful. I'm afraid I forgot you were my assistant for a minute there." "You'll get used to it, Sir. You'll see me every day." There was a fervor moment between them after Madeleine said those words. It was apparent how they felt, how their eyes sealed and held each other until they conveyed their farewells. Just a few minutes when Madeleine vamoosed the room, leaving the CEO standing still, dumbstruck by the woman's beauty and just the thought of her gave a smile on his lips. And that was the first time a woman managed to bring him such feelings of attraction. He didn't know why but she left the most vivid impressions in his mind. MANY hours finally went out, and Madeleine decided to visit her best friend, Steffi. "Seriously, girl? The CEO of Descartes Company interviewed you?" Steffi was surprised that her best friend got to see the man— one of their town's most famous and affluent people. "Oh, please!" Madeleine chortled even more
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 4. His offer
"How much money do you need right now? Be precise.""U-hmm… what do you mean by that, Sir?" Madeleine queried, clearly confused as she endeavored to understand his reason."You heard me, Ms. Nevia."She swallowed hard, still trying to figure out the root of why he suddenly asked her that. She looked away in embarrassment."You're not going to tell me how much money you need, are you?""I think… not." She looked back at him and gave him a confusing gaze. "I can take care of myself, Sir.""Are you telling me that you can't answer my question, Ms. Nevia? But I thought you'll do everything I said? And that includes answering me directly.""Well— I need a lot of money for my mom's treatment..." she explained slowly as she "A lot, Sir."Hearing those words softened his heart, so he immediately took the cheque from his wallet and offered it to her."Here," he spoke sternly, his voice showing nothing but concern toward her. "Take this."She stared at him in incredulity at that moment, feeling
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 5. Uncontrollable passion
"Her mother was currently admitted to a hospital with severe respiratory distress. Madeleine Nevia was her only daughter. Her husband died due to bone marrow cancer four years ago."Her heart stopped beating for a second before she quickly composed herself, but it turned into an overflowing confusion that rolled down her soul.She kept inquiring herself how did Mr. Harrington know about her mother? Is he stalking her?This means Mr. Harrington offered her a cheque because he knew of her mother's illness. While she was in the middle of contemplation, the door suddenly burst open, revealing Mr. Harrington holding two pieces of paper bags.She immediately composed herself and straightened herself as if everything was under control. Internally, she was dying to know the truth; how did he manage to know her personal life?There must be a reason behind that."What?" he asked her worriedly. "You look so glum.""Oh, nothing. Just a bit lost in thought," she said while giving him a warm smile
Entwined with the CEO Chapter 6. 365 days
"You must sign a contract unrelated to my company or your position.""What then?""You have to stick with me for 365 days and be my slave," he trailed off. "In a good way."Hearing those utterances drove Madeleine's mouth to open as she tried her best to absorb it. She wanted to ask a further question, but Mr. Harrington took the chance first."I'll give you one million cash, aside from your monthly salary, which is fifty thousand dollars."That made her even more shocked, completely wordless. The thing she feared the most had now begun, and she may not ask him directly the reason behind those matters; she knew very well that she should just agree for the sake of money. Of all the things she'd been accomplishing now, her mother's treatment was paramount, and she could only do that if she accepted the offer and stayed."The choice is yours, Ms. Nevia," Mr. Harrington said as he gave her a severe tone. "You are still my assistant whether you reject my offer or not.""I accept it. No ob
