CHAPTER 27

MICHAEL

If anyone was to ask me the reason why I made Taylor my secretary, it would simply be because I still felt bad about that dinner night.

She was obviously still mad at me considering how much she'd changed ever since then and after realizing that getting her dresses and a new phone wasn't going to make her soften toward me, I decided that maybe keeping her around me all the time would help.

I knew she was sick of staying in that house for such a long time so I decided that to get rid of her boredom and for her security too, I should have her around me. Maybe that way, she wouldn't be too mad at me anymore and with time, she won't be so cold and distant.

We reached the conference room and waiting inside were all the company's executives who all stood up at the same time as I walked into the room.

While I headed to my seat, I could see the questioning gazes they fixed on Taylor who stuck to my side like glue and looked too scared to make eye contact with them despite

    CHAPTER 95TAYLOR Michael kissed me like he was starving. The way he held my face, the way he kept me pulling me closer and closer until I could feel the warmth from his body and the way my insides roared for him… all of them made me realize I was ready.I soon pulled away from the kiss when I needed air and his parted lips glistened as we both panted hard, our chests heaving up and down while we struggled for air.“Michael…” I stopped after calling his name and bowed my head. I was suddenly feeling shy and I didn't know if I could bring myself to tell him what I had to say. But I knew I had to say it because it was the only way he would know what I wanted.Softly, he cradled my face and raised my head to look at him and my eyes briefly fell on his lips when he licked them. Heavens knew how much I desperately wanted him to ravish me.“What is ur, Taylor. It's just me and you so speak to me” he urged and I sighed as I felt my face turn hot.“I'm kind of shy right now. I'm trying to fi

    CHAPTER 94TAYLORMichael was awfully quiet throughout our drive back to the hotel, and his reaction made me wonder if I’d perhaps said the wrong thing while answering his father’s questions… or maybe I shouldn’t have spoken at all. Maybe that was why he was mad at me.We arrived at the hotel and he still didn't say a word as he got the door for me and helped me out of the car.Then we headed to our room, and as we walked in, he grabbed the hotel phone and ordered dinner for us.“Are you mad at me?” I asked him as I remained by the door and he looked at me, his face etched with a frown.“Why would you think that?” He asked, and I walked toward the vanity to take off my jewelry.“Well, for starters, you're frowning. So you look mad” I said as I took off my necklace and I could feel his eyes on my back as he stood on the same spot.“And?” He inquired, and I looked at him through the mirror before me.“You didn't speak to me since we left your father. Did I say something wrong or did I p

    CHAPTER 93MICHAELWhen the time came to bid Carlos and Blair goodbye as they left for their honeymoon, I stood in front of the crowd, along with Taylor and their father, to watch them both leave.“Have fun, alright? Take your time before you return,” our father said to Carlos. I watched him grin in return before he glanced toward me.“I’ll make sure to have fun, Father,” he replied. Then he went into the car to join Blair, and the car zoomed off toward the airport, where a private jet waited for them.Their honeymoon location was a secret, courtesy of Carlos’s idea, and I knew why he did so. Father wasn’t going to suspect a thing, but I could tell it was because he would be up to something shady under the guise of being on a honeymoon. He probably had international deals to see through to and needed a camouflage… the wedding and honeymoon, and as always, Blair was going to be in on it with him because they were both birds of the same feather. They were too alike, and that was nothin

    CHAPTER 92MICHAELThankfully, we arrived at the venue before the ceremony began. So we had time to exchange pleasantries with the guests, and I made sure to keep Taylor by my side as I met them all one by one.They were all mafia lords, so protecting my woman was a priority for me. Secondly, the plan was to talk to the father privately once the wedding ceremony was over. He had to know about Carlos’s secret deals before the end of the day, or else, I didn't think there would be a perfect time to tell him.The ceremony soon began, so Taylor and I made our way to our seats, and Carlos showed up to walk up the aisle where he waited for Blair.The orchestra soon began to play a song, signalling the arrival of the bride, and I watched Taylor turn toward the door to watch Blair walk in and the crowd swooned when they saw her dress. I had to admit that she did look good but not as good as Taylor did to me.Soon, she reached the aisle and I watched her and Carlos grin at each other as they s

    CHAPTER 91MICHAEL I walked out of the bathroom once I was done taking a shower and I paused when my eyes fell on Taylor who was dressed and struggling to hold her hair up in a bun.“Umm… Michael, can you help me here?” She asked, oblivious to how struck I was by her look and I made a sound that I couldn't even make out as I kept on staring at her.“What? Is it the dress, do you think it's bad?” She asked while looking down at herself and I quickly walked toward her to get that thought out of her head.I caught her chin and raised her head to look at me. Then I ran my thumb over her lips and smiled at her when her eyes widened. “I asked for you to hold my hair up in a bun… not render me speechless” she drawled and I grinned.“You're the one who left me feeling speechless when I walked out of the bathroom to see you in this dress. Were you planning to keep me occupied with your visuals for the night?” I returned and I watched a red shade creep up her neck as a smile slowly spread ov

    CHAPTER 90MICHAEL Morning came faster than I anticipated and immediately the alarm on my phone started to ring, I quickly turned it off and turned back to watch Taylor sleep while we both laid in bed.She looked adorable. Never in my thirty years of living had I ever been so enamored with a person like I was with her and knowing that what I felt with Blair was nothing compared to this, made me realize just how much I loved Taylor.I knew for sure that I wouldn't be able to do without her if she ever left me.Soon, she groaned and stretched. Then she slowly opened her eyes and seeing I was watching her, her face turned crimson before she slapped her palms over her face.“Don't look at me while I'm asleep!” she shrieked and I chuckled. Then I inched closer to her and kissed the back of both hands and they both fell as she looked at me with an even redder face.“Why shouldn't I look at you? You were a sight to behold” I told her after her hands fell and she threw her head back for a mo

    CHAPTER 89TAYLORFriday came and together with Michael, we left for Hague. Arriving at the airport, the guard stationed there was already waiting and he led us to the car which drove us off to the hotel.Arriving at the hotel, the staff led us to our room and handed over our key card before excusing himself. Then we both walked into the room and Michael seemed very quiet.I watched him take his seat on one of the couches before I joined him on the chair beside him and he looked at me.“You've got something to ask, haven't you?” He asked and I nodded while smiling. He knew me too well.“Yeah… you've been sulking. Why?” I asked and he smirked.“I don't sulk” he denied and I raised a brow.“But you were,” I insisted and he chuckled.“Are you worried about what Carlos would do once your father knows what he's been up to?” I asked him and he looked at me, clearly surprised to know that I knew what he was thinking and my smile grew wider.“You aren't the only one who knows me too well, Mi

    CHAPTER 88TAYLORI was finally getting discharged after being held back at the hospital for two more days after the big confession incident between me and Michael. After that day, he still stayed by my side in the ward, and it suddenly felt like everything was electrified every time we touched or brushed against each other.I could tell that he felt it too because his eyes said it all. It was obvious that the only reason why he was holding back was because I was admitted to the hospital, and it made me wonder… what exactly was going to happen once I was discharged and we both left?“And… you're set to leave, Mrs Rover,” the doctor said, and I smiled as I got off the bed and wore the coat that Michael handed over to me.“Thanks doctor. I appreciate your care for the last few days,” I told him, and he shook his head.“Just doing my job, ma’am,” he replied, and Michael took my hand, so I looked at him.“Come on. Let's go home,” he said, and I stared at him longer as I tried to get used

    CHAPTER 87TAYLOR “You were scared you'd lose me? Why?” I asked as I pulled away from the hug and he paused for a moment as realization filled his eyes. I figured he didn't mean to say that and I killed all hopes in my heart before distancing myself and lying back in bed.“I'd like to go back to sleep please. Can I be alone?” I asked while looking him dead in the eyes. So he would understand that I didn't want him around and his lips parted.He looked like he wanted to say something but at the same time, he was holding back and I rolled my eyes before turning to face the wall.“I'm going to sleep now, Michael. Goodbye” I dismissed him and he grabbed my arm. I turned my head to look at him and he turned me around completely to face him which was another surprising event for the night.“What? You want to tell me you didn't mean that either?” I asked him and he shook his head before breaking eye contact with me and I frowned because that was a first. “I meant what I said, Taylor. I was
