“I haven't turned on my phone since I dropped you here.”

"Geez. You must have made everyone worried because you suddenly disappeared. You should at least call your mother.”

"I'm not a kid. My mother will be fine and won't look for me.”

Xander kicked a rock that was in his way. The rock bounced very hard and hit a tree before falling with a crunch on a pile of gravel.

“You don't seem happy that I started talking about Phoebe.”

“I don't want to talk about that woman. She kept clinging to me like

    “Give the flowers to mama. Don't run, boy.”“Okay, Daddy. I will be careful.”Little Vince ran along the beautiful hilly area while holding a Cala Lily in her tiny palm. Xander followed behind him at a calm pace that wasn't too rushed. He watched Vince from a safe distance, but he let the boy explore. Falling and getting injured was something that often happened to Vince. But Xander never bothered too much about it. His son had to experience that to become stronger."Mama, I brought your favorite flowers."The boy knelt cheerfully in front of a gray gravestone and placed his flowers next to the wilted ones.“Daddy, those wilted flowers have to be thrown away.”“Later. We will throw it away when we go down. Have you said hello to your mama?""Yes. I greeted her and placed her favorite flowers."Xander stood beside his son, gently stroking the top of his head. Three years had passed, but it felt like just yesterday she'd left him. Fate really did work in strange ways in his life. Xander

  • THE DEVILISH BOSS   EXTRA MOMENT 14

    When they got off the plane, they had been picked up by one of Xander's drivers who worked for the Metropolis Hotel. Xander took her palm in his and showered her with affection that made her chest expand with warmth. Angel felt déjà vu on the way out of the airport. She remembered the suitcase incident that made her pissed and the moment she met Sebastian."Where did Vince and your mother stay while in Paris?""You'll find out later."Angel narrowed her eyes at Xander's suspicious movements.“Ander, what exactly are you planning?”“Classified,” Xander winked mischievously.Angel really didn't know where Xander was taking her. But ten minutes later, their car stopped at a luxury boutique with various kinds of beautiful dresses displayed in glass display cases."Come on down."“Ander, what are we going to do here? Where is Vince.”“You will meet him shortly. Come on down,” Xander held out his hand.Angel placed her palm hesitantly on top of Xander's palm, then stepped down. She was haun

  • THE DEVILISH BOSS   EXTRA MOMENT 13

    Angel turned her face to the left. Her breathing was labored and the top three buttons of her blouse had been ripped apart by Xander's actions. Angel didn't dare imagine how many kiss marks Xander had left on her neck. Her entire skin glowed with the heat that Xander was emitting. Angel cursed Xander for doing all that to her."Look at me. Look into my eyes.”“Ander, you promised me. You would give me time.”“I have been too generous to you. I gave you time, but you deliberately want to hang me in this relationship.”Xander's nose nuzzled into the crook of Angel's neck, which smelled of rose and citrus. He brushed his lips along her sexy collarbone then moved upwards, along her soft jawline. He traced a wet trail down to the corner of Angel's lips which twitched painfully, craving his touch."So Vince is okay?" Angel spoke before Xander kissed her on the lips. She deliberately stalled to find a way to escape. Angel hoped that the plane would be shaken by bad weather again like before,

    Xander grasped Angel's icy palm. He drove with only one hand towards the airport. Xander had called the pilot on standby, and he said the jet was ready to fly. Angel was really grateful because they managed to arrive at the airport without encountering traffic jams.Xander immediately led Angel to the runway for his private jet. They were in such a hurry when boarding the plane that Angel didn't have time to greet the flight attendants who greeted them.“Did your mom text you about Vince?”“My mother hasn't sent me anything. But let's assume that's a good thing. That means my mother doesn't have to report worrying things about Vince.”“But your mother said, Vince fell on a cliff and was bleeding. What if he has a concussion?”“Ssshh... Don't speculate, okay. It didn't mean his head was bleeding when my mom said she saw blood. It could be because his knee was scratched by a rock."“Ander, I'm really worried about our son.”"Don't worry, we will face it together."Xander motioned for th

    Angel smiled gently at Xander who was leaning against the body of his car. He was waiting for her in front of her new office because they were going to dinner. Xander looked impatient to scoop her into his arms as Angel crossed the street in front of her office."Hey, sorry to keep you waiting.""Not really. Waiting for you will not exhaust my patience at all. I'm used to waiting for you."Xander pushed his back away from the car. He grabbed Angel's waist and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. Several of Angel's office friends cheered excitedly at the romance. They started to get used to Xander's presence and no longer acted as tacky as before."Why do you always look beautiful? Hmm... I'm jealous of your boss, who can look at your face every day. How about you come back to work as my secretary?"Angel shook her head in firmness. "Big no. I'm comfortable working here. I have friends I never had when I worked with you.""Tsk, is it that bad working with me?""Hey, I didn't say working w

    The boy laughed out loud in front of the television while holding a piece of homemade chocolate cookies. He sat quietly in his chair, while his mother was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. Occasionally, Angel poked her head through the crack in the door to check on Vince's condition. She only stopped worrying about his son after Ellena appeared with a towel wrapped around his wet hair."He's safe, don't worry, Angel."“I'm worried if he suddenly falls out of his chair, or chokes on a cookie, or if he cries because he's bored of staying here with me.”Ellena rolled her eyes lazily. She picked up Vince and took him towards the kitchen to see his mother who was busy preparing dinner.“You're too paranoid. Look, your baby is fine. Nothing to worry about."“But I'm still worried. You will know what it feels like once you become a mother.”“Gosh, I hate it when you start talking about that. You're like Mom and my annoying aunts.""No offense. I was just trying to tell you, my beloved co

    “Welcome on board. We have wine, champagne and juice as welcome drinks.”“I want mango juice.”Angel smiled sweetly at a flight attendant who served her very kindly. Xander's new jet was extraordinarily luxurious. She couldn't stop being amazed when she first stepped into the cabin. The interior wa

    After Finn disappeared into the elevator, Angel hurriedly walked into Xander's room. She knocked softly on the door and entered after hearing Xander's hoarse voice answer from inside."Is there anything I can do for you, sir?"“Lock the door.”"Pardon?" Angel frowned in confusion.“You heard what I

    Her jaw tensed, her palms clenched into fists, trying to restrain herself from following Xander's orders. But as a consequence, Xander would do what he wanted himself. She literally just watched as Xander pushed the blouse off her arms and dumped it on the floor. Her body, which was only clad in a
