Deciding that it was best to just avoid Rock, Katherine hurriedly headed for the door. Although their son might have made their relationship turn around positively, it still felt surreal and strange, making things a little awkward between them. However, her hand was suddenly captured before she could reach the door, causing her to halt her movement. "What is it?" Katherine quirked her brows up in confusion.'What was I even expecting from her? That she will run into my arms with excitement and hug me after everything? Hmph...' Rock shook his thoughts to the back of his mind as he looked at Katherine with a gloomy expression."I just want us to have a good talk", he proposed, releasing his grip on her."Why?" 'Is she still mad at me?' Rock couldn't help but reason with himself as he heard the sound of her voice. Katherine shivered slightly as she was beginning to feel uncomfortable under Rock's burning and unwavering gaze. No matter how much she tried to lie to her
One year later. Sitting on a chair in the garden with my eyes trained on one little child and a bigger one as they played, I couldn't help grinning with excitement on my face. It was hilarious watching Rock on his fours as he gave Justin a piggyback, and if he delayed, Justin would flog his back, making him move faster. Who knew that the mighty grumpy CEO would become such a devoted man for his family? It felt surreal and wonderful. It felt like a dream come through seeing the man of my dream and my child playing like two kids while I watched. We are now a complete family after three years of me crying in pain and sorrow. While I was reminiscing about the past, I didn't know when my hand went over to the ring on my finger as I began to caress it out of habit.Yes, Rock did propose to me. It was last month, on a loving, cool evening, when he'd gotten on his knee and asked if I would marry him with a ring in his hand. He had insisted that he wanted us to have an official weddin
KATHERINEI was sitting on my desk working on some important task my Boss had asked me work on. I was very serious as my attention was fully concentrated like I was balancing a million dollar account. My slender fingers were busy typing away as I tuned every other thing out, disappearing into the world of computer.I really had to take that simple task so serious because I didn't want that man's fury on me. Mr. Rock can be very hard to please at times, that is when you fail to finish your job on time or when you don't do it properly.I was probably too immersed in the work that I was startled by a faint call of my name.I adjusted my glasses as I perked my ears up, stopped the movement of my hand, and tried listening to see if I would hear my name again.But after waiting for some seconds without hearing anything, I shrugged my shoulders and focused back on the job at hand. Maybe I was just hearing things.But then I heard it once again, my name.Although it was faint and distant, I h
KATHERINEAfter glancing through my work, and making sure that there was no mistakes with the document, I quickly printed it out before hurrying to send it to my boss before he comes out once again and start shouting at me. The one that I have endured today was enough and I don't want more of his flaming rage to rain me.I got to the door of his office and breathed in and out before knocking on the door. I was giggling in anticipation as I waited to hear his deep voice. I was excited to see him, even for a second. A glimpse of him was enough. However, my plan was shattered when Alex, my boss's assistant suddenly opened the door and collected the file from me, before slamming the door shut.Asshole, I cursed inside my head. I don't even know between him and Mr. Rock who is colder. But I will surely give it to Mr. Rock. That man can be as scary as hell. But I love him!I giggled to myself like a fool as I made my way back to my desk. I don't know why but the thought of my Boss gives me
KATHERINE After my conversation with Hannah, I felt so happy and refreshed as more energy flooded into me. And I'm ready to work now. My work is not really hard. It's mainly about typing and filing documents and answering the phone and relaying messages. And I'm good at what I do unless I am slightly carried away by my unrealistic and unreasonable fantasy about my handsome and hot boss.Today went by so fast and it’s over. I was done with my work for today and so I kept checking time, impatiently waiting for 5 to finally clock. I love closing hour so much, it indicates freedom and relieve. But, I can’t stop feeling a little downhearted because I would have to wait for so many hours before seeing my boss again—every next day seems so far to me.Well, I’m glad to go home and rest. I have already arranged my things into my bag and immediately it was time, I grabbed my bag and left the building. Me and Hannah stays in the same house and we always go home together, but she has gone
KATHERINE Junior is my little brother, and he has the habit of calling me at this hour, every day. So, do not blame me for not bothering to check the Caller ID. I was so used to it.But, what on earth is happening?With the phone still placed against my ear, I felt my soul suddenly travel out from this world due to the excitement from hearing my boss’s voice. I never expected it. It feels so wonderful and sexy in my ears and I would give anything to continue hearing it till eternity. I couldn’t stop imagining how heavenly it will fell like to listen to him while he went about different things that I didn’t care about just for me to hear his voice.“Hello? Are you still there?” I heard his enchanting deep voice and almost gave up, my breath hitched as my heartbeat skyrocketed. Once again, I was so lost in my fantasy that I was startled by his deep voice. Maybe I was just hearing things, I thought. So I decided to confirm.“Ahh…” A yelp of pain escaped my lips, confirming that I
KatherineI yawned lazily and stretched myself, before rolling onto my stomach, but it wasn't comfortable enough. No matter how much I tossed and turned, I couldn't find the right angle to sleep in, so I finally gave up as I rolled onto my back, staring at the ceiling with my eyes wide open.I was sleep-deprived as my eyelids had refused to close. Every vital in my body was refusing to grant me this simple wish, but how could I? When all my thoughts were occupied with the thought of my handsome boss. I knew it was going to be hard for me to get him off my mind after the call from him, but I never knew it would be this bad. It was as if the time had stopped, and all I could imagine was him as a vivid image of his stern and enchanting face kept flashing in my head. Just the thought of him alone was enough to keep me up the whole night. Not just that, I could feel myself feeling somehow, making me blush, as my body heated up. I kept giggling to myself like a fool, thus, sleep seems like
NARRATOR"Sir, we are here." Otis, informed the man who seemed to be dozing off in the back seat with his eyes tightly shut, as they approached Figo, Inc. He quickly killed the engine of the car as he rush out of the car in order to open the door for his boss.Rock whose eyes was closed while he leaned against his seat, slowly opened his eyes and sighed before stepping down from the vehicle which the door was already open. He buttoned his suit before taking a step towards the tall and mighty building that always had people gasping in shock. Even those that heard the name alone gaps in awe too, that's how powerful the legacy he had built is. His only regret was that his father wasn’t here to see how far and how well he’d done. Rock who always thought that his father was his role model felt that the man would've been very proud of him if he was alive. He would’ve been happy to see that what he’d started had grown beyond imagination. Rock had made sure to take his father’s business to
