Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 154: Earning trust back
ROSELINE’S POVWe stood together for a long moment, Florian’s arms wrapped carefully around me, his hand still resting gently against my stomach. Part of me wanted to simply melt into him completely, to let the relief of finally having him home outweigh everything else. But another part of me, the part still raw from weeks of silence, held back.“I’m never leaving again,” he whispered softly against my hair. “I promise you, Roseline.”I pulled back slightly, enough to look up at him properly, exhaustion and lingering hurt both clear in my voice when I finally spoke. “Promises alone aren’t going to be enough this time, Florian.”He studied me carefully, understanding slowly settling over his features. “What do you need from me?” he asked quietly. “Tell me, and I’ll do it.”“I need to see it,” I said honestly. “Not just hear it. I need to watch you actually choose this, every single day, not just say the words once and disappear again the moment things get hard.”“Okay,” he said softly,
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 153: The truth comes out
FLORIAN’S POVI stood frozen for a moment, staring at the closed bathroom door, worry twisting sharply now within my chest. “Roseline?” I called softly, moving quickly toward the hallway. “Are you okay?”No answer came, only the faint, unmistakable sound of her being sick on the other side of the door. My heart pounded anxiously as I reached the door, my hand hovering uncertainly over the handle.“Roseline,” I said again, louder now, fear creeping steadily into my voice. “Please, talk to me. Do you need anything?”A long moment passed before I heard the faucet running, followed by quiet movement from inside. “I’m okay,” she said finally, her voice weak, though steadier than I expected. “Give me a second.”I waited anxiously outside the door, my mind racing through countless worried possibilities, guilt and fear both twisting uncomfortably together now within my chest. Had I caused this somehow? Was she sick because of the stress I’d put her through these past several weeks?The door f
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 152: Coming back
FLORIAN’S POVThe flight felt like it lasted forever, though in reality it was only a few hours. I barely slept the entire way, my mind racing steadily between guilt, fear, and a desperate, aching need to finally see Roseline again, to finally make things right between us.I landed late, well past midnight, and instead on waiting until morning, I drove straight from the airport, exhaustion forgotten entirely beneath the urgency pressing steadily through my chest. The streets were quiet, empty, the city asleep around me as I navigated the familiar roads home.By the time I pulled into the driveway, my hands were trembling slightly, nerves and exhaustion both tangled uncomfortably together now. The house stood dark and silent before me, no lights visible through any of the windows, and for a brief, panicked moment, I wondered if she was even here at all.I stepped out of the car quietly, my footsteps soft against the gravel as I made my way carefully toward the front door. I hesitated t
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 151: Hearing her voice
FLORIAN’S POVI sat there for a long moment after closing the voicemail app, my hands still trembling slightly from everything I’d just listened to. The flight booking page glowed quietly on my laptop screen, though my mind kept circling back instead to her voice, the exhaustion and heartbreak threaded through every single message.I thought about calling her right then, in the middle of the night, just to hear her voice properly, to finally say something instead of leaving her with nothing but silence for weeks on end. My thumb hovered over her name in my contacts list, my heart pounding steadily now with a mixture of fear and overwhelming guilt.What do I even say to her? Where do I even begin?I thought about apologizing, though the word felt impossibly small against the weight of everything I’d put her through. I thought about simply telling her I was coming home, though even that felt inadequate somehow, given how long I’d already left her waiting, confused and alone.I pressed c
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 150: A mother’s push
FLORIAN’S POVDespite my decision to finally go back, the following days passed slowly, uncertainty and lingering guilt still weighing heavily enough that I found myself delaying, burying myself once again in work instead of booking the flight home I kept telling myself I would take.My mother noticed almost immediately.“You said you were going back,” she said one morning, finding me hunched over my laptop at the kitchen table, papers scattered around me despite the early hour.“I am,” I said quickly, not looking up from the screen. “I just need to finish a few things here first.”“Florian,” she said gently, though there was a firmness beneath her tone now. “You’ve said that every day this week.”I sighed, finally glancing up at her, guilt and exhaustion both clear in my expression. “I know,” I admitted quietly. “I just, every time I think about actually going, about facing her properly, the guilt comes rushing back in, and work feels easier somehow. Safer.”“Work isn’t going to fix
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 149: Florian’s exile
FLORIAN’S POVNew York felt different than I remembered, colder somehow, despite the mild weather settling comfortably over the city. I threw myself immediately into FH-Holdings’ main office, taking meetings I didn’t need to attend, reviewing reports that could easily have waited, anything to keep my mind too occupied to circle back toward the guilt and heartbreak I’d left behind.My parents noticed almost immediately that something was wrong.“You’ve barely touched your dinner,” my mother said one evening, studying me carefully across the table, her eyes narrowing slightly with concern.“Just not very hungry,” I said, pushing the food around my plate without much real interest.“Florian,” my father said gently, “you’ve been here nearly three weeks now, and you haven’t mentioned Roseline once. Is everything alright between you two?”I hesitated, guilt twisting sharply inside my chest at the question. “It’s complicated,” I said finally, my voice quieter now.My mother set her fork down
