Julian released a small sigh and tried to slowly peel her hand away from his sleeve.

"You're drunk Adele".

"No, I'm not" she curled her lips into a childish pout.

"Let's not argue this Adele" he dismissed and turned away to leave.

"Do you really not find me even a little bit attractive?", her question stopped him on his tracks. He turned around to meet her saddened expression looking away from him.

Julian came back to her and took a sit on the edge of the bed. His gaze was fixed on her, he plac

  • Married to my enemy CEO    Investigation

    The call from two days ago had been from the police.The forensics had found signs of struggle on the body. They probably hadn't looked well the first time but now they could see it very obviously.There were small chunks of hair removed from his head and a small scratch wound at the back of his ear.Julian had been called back to the private parking facility beneath an office building. He came out of his car with a stick of cigarette clasped between his teeth.His eyes scanned around the lot till it spotted the chief investigator, John Calloway. "Mr Julian, you've arrived" he greeted, ushering Julian around. "You said you've found something" Julian said firmly."Yes. We rechecked the CCTV footage and discovered that the victim had left the building with some documents in his hand".Julian gave him a questionable glance."But the body was not found with any sort of document. Which means the actual murderer must have taken them with him" John added."It could be that the killer had a

  • Married to my enemy CEO    Fragment of emotion

    By morning Julian was still there, just like before.He sat at an end working on his laptop with the most intense focus she had ever seen.For sometime she didn't say anything, only watched his focused face, not wanting him to know she had already woken.A knock came and he looked towards the door. Adele did the same too.The woman that stood there was the same woman Adele had seen that night at the party.The woman had said some strange things and left without letting Adele have a word with her."May I come in?" Her tone was the most elegant."Yes" Julian answered without looking up.Adele's eyes followed the lady as she came in, walking to where Julian sat.She stretched out her hand and handed him some documents."Sir, these are the documents for the property you asked me to arrange". Julian took them from her and dropped it on a nearby table, "Hmm".The woman still hadn't moved, she stood beside Julian like a bodyguard. Her eyes turned to glance at the bed. Adele immediately shut

    Adele sat at the edge of the bed.Julian was bent in front of her cleaning her bruise.She flinched a little when he applied an antiseptic. "Sorry" he said blowing on it.She didn't say anything and just watched him as he applied cream on it before bandaging it."This should do" he said and stood up to put the first aid tools inside the box.Adele thought of what to say even though there were a million things she wanted to ask him.She watched him a little more before she spoke, "I'm sorry".He looked at her. No expression written on his face. Just an unreadable face as usual and didn't say anything."It suddenly seems like I'm always putting myself in a situation where you have to help me", she waited a second."Don't you find all this bothersome?", she added. A question which its answer would have different implications.He moved slowly to her, took her hand and pulled her up. "Do you want to know what I find most bothersome?" His heavy but soothing voice whispered into her ear.She

    In her mind she prayed. She hoped, even for even the smallest miracle to happen and save have from these men.The men grinned and laughed, mocking her at how she struggled fruitlessly to escape the ropes."Let me go" she cried out again even though she knew they wouldn't. "Look at her go" one of them laughed."Leave her for me, I like feisty women" he licked his lower lip, moving his hands to his unbuckle belt.Adele's face squeezed in fear. The thought of these men touching her was nauseating. "Julian please" she pleaded in a low voice, her eyes shut tight. Even though they might've given her the idea that he was the one who requested of this, he was still the only one she could think of to call for help.The sound of man coughing out blood was soon heard from a distance before she heard someone's neck snap. Her eyes shot open, vision blurred that she couldn't make out the figure of the person who was moving towards her.Tall.Broad.He looked muscular.Dark hair.Was it Julian?"

  • Married to my enemy CEO    It's all my fault

    "It was all my fault" Vivi explained. Adele watched her with an attentive gaze as she spoke."I wasn't ready to have a child yet. I had a modelling career to build and a family to maintain. The career had always been my dream so I chose that path"."And you left the house?".Vivi shook her head, disappointed at herself for the decision she made years ago. "I didn't just leave. I knew Richard would never approve of me leaving. He valued his image more than anything else so I staged my death and left"."I didn't mean to hurt Julian that way. I knew he'd hate me if he found out but I just had to tell him. I couldn't keep either of them in the dark forever".Adele silently watched Vivi's expression. She had this look of pain mixed with regrets and love kind of expression on her face."But why did you want to tell me this?".Vivi averted her gaze, the guilt and shame was eating her up. Adele seemed to get what she wanted to ask for.She stretched her hand forward and placed it over Vivi's

  • Married to my enemy CEO    Mum

    What in the world did Julian want to tell her, and when would be the right time? Adele screamed in her head as she sat on the dining.Her lunch was getting cold and she was still picking at her food while thinking of him.Gemma stood with her hands folded behind her back, watching Adele with preying eyes."Ma'am? You're not eating your food" Gemma pointed out, snapping Adele out of her thoughts. She glared sharply at Gemma who maintained her calm expression.Adele looked down at her food, "What's your deal Gemma?", she finally asked. She hadn't got the chance to ask before and she wasn't too concerned with her either, but now, Gemma was seeming really odd and getting on her nerves."What do you mean by that? I was sent here to take care of you, and that is what I will be doing", the look on Gemma's face was strangely calm like she was trying to show that she couldn't be intimidated."Whatever" Adele stood up, "I'm not eating anymore, you can throw the food away".It was like something
