Jessica
I arrived at the office at a quarter past seven and Kayleigh had put stacks of paper on my desk for my signature and review. But basically, she had done the work, the launching party is scheduled and details had been taken care of.
"I'm impressed Kay, you managed to pull this off without me...okay, I'm feeling unneeded here."
She smiled sweetly and put my morning coffee on my desk.
"Boss, I'm just dusting off your work they're all still on you, every mistake that I've done will reflect on you. For sure."
I finally laugh and sit down in my boss chair while I start going through the pile of documents.
"So, are you feeling better? I think you are, I think you're glowing, and I think you have gained a little weight. You look good."
I looked at her and spilled my thoughts on him, on me, Tyler, and everything between us.

The discussion ended half an hour later with him telling me briefly that I had nothing to worry about."Look, I really have to go, Ty, we will discuss this in the next couple of days.""Tomorrow, I'll...""No, stay with Jessica, take a day off or two. I got this brother. I'll call you if there are any emergencies.""Are you sure?""Tyler, I'm sure. Just take care of her."I ended the call minutes later and my mind was back to the chat that I had with the ER doctor who was following up on her condition and bringing up the issue about her previous injuries.I was on my second glass of whiskey when my mind kept getting back to her bruises. I still couldn't believe when the doctor showed me her files, I was sur

Jessica"So, I'll pick you up in the next hour?""Yeah, I can't stop you even if I say no, can I?" I teased, looking at him in his dark designer jeans and fitted collared shirt which shows off his strong arms perfectly, begging me to run my fingers to them. I gazed at my handsome man, I can't believe I was even with him."You can't, I'll see you later, call me if you finish early." His reply took me back to the current situation.He pulled me in for a kiss before I headed to the lobby of my psychiatrist's building. She was surprised seeing me, saying that I looked happy and that she had never seen me that happy."Dr. Sheridan, please...""You're practically glowing, Jess.""Tell me, what has been happening?""I love him," I giggled blurted out the words as if I was talking to my thirteen-year-old girlfriend on a sleepover
My CEO, My Temptation 22. Dear Jessica
Tyler"Where's Jessica?"Mom asked the moment I walked into the house with our lunch."She's at mine I dropped her off after picking up our lunch, she said I should be with you until Larry got here and said to bring lunch.""I'm not hungry,""That's what she said to, that's why she sent me here to make sure you eat your lunch."Mom smiled at me and sit on the dining chair while I plated our lunch and she was telling me that dad was resting in their room, still woozy from the painkiller."Jessica, she's nice, so it's official? You're her boyfriend now?"I stopped and looked at her then nodded plastering a big grin on my face."Yeah, I'm lucky that she would have me as hers.""Right, so...I talked to that nurse Maggie back in the hospital, the one who was with that handsome doctor," she expl

Jessica"Not that I'm not glad that you're taking a day off with me, but I really think we should go to work.""Jess, it's Friday almost weekend anyway, the Gala is not until next Thursday. Relax, we have employees paid for doing their jobs.""But you're a control freak." I rolled my eyes at him, I learned about his work ethic when I looked into his company for the buy-out.His workaholic attitude was one of the reasons why I chose to be bought out by his company. I know my people will have stability in their future, Tyler's dad had definitely raised his sons well."I think you broke me, lately I'm not focussing on my work." He rest his head on his hand, propped his elbow looking at me with a little smile on his face.It was ten in the morning, we've had coffee, breakfast, we even had sex, twice. I was lying naked in his bed confused with what to do with t

TylerWe just got back from having dinner with my parents, where I was also checking up on dad knowing that mom might push him over the edge with the constant care while he's still being in an arm cast.There was a look in her eyes right after Jessica had a conversation with mom, she seemed uncomfortable because of it. But instead of talking to me about it, she told me that she's tired when we arrived at my place.I decided to let her go knowing that I need to talk to Larry. There were several miscalls from him, and usually, he texted if it's really urgent, so I gave him a call back while putting Jess's issue on the back of my mind."... her client, Brodie MacMillan, he's adamant that he wanted their account to be handled by Jessica instead of me, us. I know you told me that you don't like Brodie, so I did a background check, and turns out he was best buddies with her dead fucked up brothe
My CEO, My Temptation 25. The Gala
JessicaIt was the awaited day, the relaunched of the Robinson Finance. It was supposed to be a business relaunched, but somehow the marketing department decided to change it into a gala with a special orchestra performance, extra publicity, and a whole lot of guests.Tyler said we're showing people that the company was coming back with a bang. But they surely throw a lot of money into it that I was not comfortable with at some stage."I still think it's too much, and you wouldn't even let me peek at the cost, and... even Kayleigh couldn't get your finance to show her the rundown."Tyler looked at me smugly, he looked too damn handsome that I melt in his arms the second he pulled me in."The Richardson needs to show off their support, we are taking over what used to be one of the best financial companies in the country. Your father build it well, but your brother mad
My CEO, My Temptation 26. Clueless
TylerIt was Sunday, and I was getting agitated already, we haven't had a clue on who was responsible for the placement of the photos. The CCTV was conveniently unavailable in that part of the area. There was no way of knowing who actually put the envelope there."So, has Bruce reported anything? any leads?" Larry was coming over to my place, he would visit and chill on some random Sunday afternoon for a lazy time. But since Jessica, it's been a while since he'd come over to my place.He took the beer from my hand and sits his ass on the sofa, Jess was having her afternoon nap, while I have just finished a meeting with our security head Bruce Steward."Bruce said that it's most likely a woman's doing. It looked personal. He had cleared Brodie and some of her employees that she had to fire when the company had money issues. Even Elsie was cleared, now he's going on for another route, lookin
My CEO, My Temptation 27. Secret Message
Jessica"Boss, seriously, you should tell him. He's going to freak out when he finds out from his security guy."Kayleigh was waving the note in front of my face while she kept on reminding me of the danger of the situation."Kay, I'm perfectly safe, I'm staying at his place anyway and working beside his office. What could go wrong? Bruce's men are scattered around us and he even has a couple of them stationed outside the office.I was actually kind of surprised when Bruce laid out his security plan with Tyler and me. I didn't think so much manpower was going to be involved just to keep me unharmed. But obviously, Tyler would lock me in a glass cage if he could, he actually said it and I believed him one hundred percent.With that thought I was back to my loyal assistant who looked at me, giving me her judgemental face."...but he's in a freaking meeting a
