25. A big step with me
“Mason, please don’t!” Bethany pleaded and her lawyer had to convince her to stay calm and silent.
“With whom were you talking on the phone, Mr. Scott?” Our guy asked the witness.“Stephan. Bethany’s ex. They broke up because she was having some… mental problems. He convinced her to start going to a specialist.”The room filled with gasps and rustling by the surprising news. But what would make her brother say something that would make her look bad in court?“What mental problems did Miss Scott have?” The mustache man pressed, but answers were coming swiftly, impatiently waiting to roll out of Mason’s mouth.“She was… She is feeling insecure and is constantly seeking the attention of an important man. Like a popular man in town or an attractive man who is wanted by many, and she has the need to prove something to herself by winning theRelated chapters
Her secret CEO desire 1. Dream come true
It was as if his vision was penetrating the fabric of my clothes. The intensity of his gaze making me feel uncomfortable.Why was he so intimidating? His dark gray eyes seemed unreal, a demanding sheen illuminating them. In his presence, I felt uneasy, unlike myself, like I was made of fire instead of flesh. I couldn't help but gawk at him like a fool. It was something I grew accustomed to doing when I was around him. I wondered if he ever noticed it."Alex, did you restock the yogurt we spoke about?" He asked me seriously, yet I couldn't bring myself to think about yogurt. My work in his small shop seemed insignificant when I was in his presence; enchanted by him. He kept staring at me, awaiting a response.Finally, I found my voice, "You know I do all you ever ask of me." I bit my lip, remembering how I dreamed of his exposed body last night. Under the shower, the steam concealed his broad shoulders, abs and behind. Drops of water slid down his almost jet black hair, rolling down hi
Her secret CEO desire 2. The excited angel
I went home that day feeling like I lost something I never had. In reality, he was never actually mine, to begin with. I mean - yeah, he was physically with me every single day, but that was for work only. He never saw how he would tease me with his good looks and gentle attitude. I had slept with him countless times in my head, but it was all just in my mind. I thought, no – I was certain that I was in love with him.I came to this town because my cousin Clarissa needed my support after she got divorced. Her husband cheated on her with his coworker just two months after their wedding. At the time, I had freshly finished college and was as free as a bird. I had no decided career path and had a bad relationship on my own which left me conflicted as far as my life was concerned. A new beginning and a close friend in the shape of my cousin was just what I needed. We kind of kept each
Her secret CEO desire 3. Friendly push
I showered as fast as I could, hoping that Clarissa hadn't used my phone to do something stupid. Not soon enough I rushed back to my room and relaxed as I saw that she hadn't moved from her place and my mobile was exactly where I had left it. I went to the dresser and picked out a loose green tank top and my favorite black shorts. I felt perfect in that outfit. Sexy, but comfortable.I tossed the towel on my bed and dressed myself, without a drop of shame that there was another person in the room. We were so close - Clarissa and I. Ever since we were kids we shared clothes, rooms, secrets and my best summer vacations were always with her. Here was like a second home.I looked over at her, she seemed so obsessed with her phone that I laughed. Her smart brown eyes moved only for a second to see me and go back down.
Her secret CEO desire 4. Wanting answers
My alarm buzzed with the most annoying sound – my favorite song. I thought that it wouldn't be that bad to be woken up by something I loved. No luck there. It was irrelevant that I had a hard time falling asleep, I had to get up at 6 AM to prepare for work regardless. I still wanted to dream about him...again. I was tossing around in bed, unable to escape my dirty thoughts and I didn't know what time it was when I finally drifted away again.I got up, went to the bathroom, tied my hair in a long dark brown ponytail, but did not curl it. In the mirror, my reflection was watching me with tired red eyes."Look at that, without a night out or any drinking at all..." I pointed to myself. I used a bit more makeup, hiding behind light brown shades, mascara, and black eyeliner. I didn't use lipstick, instead, I applied lip balm, which was
Her secret CEO desire 5. Three of us again
It seemed like I had fallen asleep when my phone rang with a new message from Clarissa. It was dark in the room and when I looked at the screen, my eyes were not welcoming its light. I blinked a few times before I read, 'So so so sorry I am late. Will be ready in 20.'I looked at the time and it was 30 minutes after 5 PM. I got up to go to the shower, realizing how the day was not better even after I got some sleep. At least I was dream free. While I dried my hair, I tried to think of a reason why I didn't want to go to the bar tonight. Clarissa would force me, no matter what I said. She was good at convincing. Maybe I should just join them and it would be easier for me to sway her not to talk about my boss.A knock on the door startled me as Clarissa walked inside, wearing a tight brown party dress and her cu
Her secret CEO desire 6. Third wheel
We walked inside and picked our favorite table in the corner near the wall and close to the stage. Most tables were abandoned as people were already dancing and cheering. Oh, yes...it was a "Rock on" night! A boy band was entertaining a small crowd. People were so lost in the music and maybe already drunk, because no one cared if I had enough space to get to my chair.I tried to sit, but the only place I could reach was in front of the table, and we were three. I turned around with a frown as Clarissa found a quick solution."Oh, it's okay. You can take that, we don't need a chair because we are going to be dancing." She grinned and grabbed Ethan's hand, taking him even closer to the stage, before he could protest.I p
Her secret CEO desire 7. I do care
MICHAELI was watching some lame TV show, hoping that I would not think of her. I cared for her. And not in a coworker kind of way. I liked her ever since she came to my shop to ask for a job. I must be blind or stupid to not see how beautiful she was. I mean really hot, but also so confident, smart, and friendly. I saw the potential in her cat-like green eyes from the first time we talked and my mind went to some very intimate places as I took in her appearance. I could remember what she was wearing that day. Some dark red top with no sleeves which revealed her round breasts, showing me what I couldn't have. Her amazing ass was hidden in her black tight jeans that she rarely wears. Her hair was falling free around her back and part of her shoulders, hugging her like a blanket.I knew since the first time I saw her that it woul
Her secret CEO desire 8. It wasn't you, right?
AlexandraIt was such a great feeling... the fresh air, playing with my hair, some grasshoppers making calming sounds in the night. I was just relaxing on the bench with a fruit drink. It almost made me forget about what I truly wanted... almost.The music from the bar, that I could barely hear, got mixed with someone's footsteps. Oh, it must be my cousin slash matchmaker!"Clarissa, do you have another boy that you want to shove in my f...?" I started, but as I turned around the strangest thing happened.It was Michael... Walking towards me."What the fuck?!" I asked in surprise, accidentally spilling my half-empty drink on the ground as I got up from the bench.
