Tainted by the CEO’s Greed - Illicit affair with my boss Chapter 73
Ivy’s POV I blinked up at him, the tingle in my arm was gone, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.“What did you just say?” I asked.“I said you can come live with me,” he said easily, casually, as if he was ordering coffee or requesting a document.“Okay… I heard the words. But did you hear the words?” I tilted my head, one brow raised as I stared up at him.He couldn’t be serious. Not after everything. Not with the way things already were between us.He sighed, “Ivy, I’m not playing games. I know what I said, and I’m telling you, you can come live with me.”I let out a short, humorless laugh and shook my head. Heat crept up the back of my neck. “Yeah, I’m just gonna go. I’m not in the mood for this.”“And go where, exactly?” His voice stayed level, he spoke as if speaking to a child. I had nowhere to go truthfully but I didn’t want to go with him. That was a bad idea. “I’m offering you somewhere to stay until the repairs are done. Or at least until your friends get back.”“And I

Ivy’s POVI wheeled my box out of my apartment building into the cold night, exhaustion clear in my features. I was tired and so over it all.My apartment was a mini fish pond. My landlord said he would fix the broken pipes but not until the next week, which meant I was officially homeless.Repairs would take a month at least, and thinking about my housing situation was already a headache. Add my mother's treatment and my work life, and I was in for a steep ride.The first thing I thought of was calling Mabel.She picked up on the first ring."Baby girl, how are you?" The background was loud and I struggled to hear her."Mabel, can I come to your place? My apartment is flooded and I don't have a place to stay.""Hello? Ivy? It's loud where I'm at," she was saying loudly into the phone. "Hold on, let me just."I waited, chewing my lip while the cool evening air bit into my skin. I shifted from one foot to the other.She finally spoke again and it was less noisy. "Ivy, I didn't get you

Ivy’s POV“Stay away from him. The only reason I’m allowing this nonsense is because I know he will come back to his senses and stand by what’s right for both him and his company,” She hissed. “You’re just a nobody.”Oh well, her true colors had just shown, and it was a bit of red with fury and green with envy.“And what if I don’t?” I said, flashing her a taunting smile, brows raised in question. “Huh?”She spluttered, probably shocked that I’d spoken back to her.“So you’re admitting that you’re entangled with my fiancé. This is unbelievable. You’re the other woman. I could destroy you.”“You wouldn’t dare, though.”“What are you talking about? I would ruin you. You’ll never be able to show your face. Homewrecker.”The word stung, but not as deeply when it was coming from her. I knew too much.I moved closer until I was almost whispering in her ear. “I don’t believe you have the qualifications to speak on this subject when you’re not off the hook yourself.”Her eyes widened.“But of

Ivy’s POVI walked out of his office and decided I wasn’t going to head back to my desk.Instead, I headed for the stairwell to catch my breath. I didn’t know why, but it hurt to breathe. It felt like a fist was closed around my heart, squeezing it in a tight grip.Tears burned behind my eyelids as I thought about the implication of what that cufflink meant.My heart broke at the thought of it.Why was it in her house? He said it was nothing between them, that it was simply a contractual marriage. But I guess the contract didn’t stop them from sleeping with one another.I heaved out a choked breath, almost to tears by the time I opened the stairwell door. The stairwell had quickly become the place where I came to wind down. Even the place was tainted with him.I stood hunched over the rail that lined the glass walls, looking down at the city as people and cars drifted past. I was gasping for breath before I knew it.How could I have been so stupid to think that he was going to be fait

Ivy’s POV I was mid-work, trying to pool together every bit of money I had for my mother's surgery down payment.Once I paid the fee, I might have to stick to one meal a day. Living in the city was already so expensive. My rent would barely be covered by next month once the money went out, but I could still count on my next salary.I sent in the payment for the surgery and slouched in my seat. I just hoped it would be enough to get her through. My mother must not leave me. She wasn't permitted to.I sent my father a text. ‘The payment has been made. Update me on the treatment schedule. I’ll be back as soon as I can.’I locked my phone and turned to the computer. I better get some work done. Just as I did, something like a flash of light caught my eye, and I turned around in my seat to find Laura walking into Tristan's office.I felt my chest tighten for a moment. I wasn't jealous, but I wasn't exactly happy either. I might have told him to cut it loose with me, but that didn't mea

Ivy’s POV The next day arrived and I had to wake early to get to work. I kissed my mother's cheek and promised to be back soon.They lived in a neighboring town, about five hours away by car. By train, it was closer to three.She had almost made me leave the day before, going on about not wanting me to miss work."You don't have to stay behind. I'm fine. Your father is here.""I'm not leaving mum. I'm staying right here."I had refused and stayed by her side while my dad went home to get me a change of clothes, so I wouldn't have to go home first before work. He was truly thoughtful.I found myself crying when I went to the bathroom to wash up that morning. I didn't deserve them. After all they'd been through, I should have treated them better.With newfound conviction, I got dressed as early as four. I bid my parents goodbye. Just for that day, I would be back soon.Once I left the room, I made my way to the reception desk and asked for the payment details. The faster the surgery, t
