Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 44: Uncle Mack the deranged relative.
FLORIAN'S POVI was in the middle of a conversation with one of my adoptive father's business associates, exchanging pleasantries and thanking him for coming, when one of the waitstaff approached me quietly, leaning in to speak close to my ear."Sir, there seems to be some kind of disturbance near the entrance. Gabriel is handling it, but it might require your attention."I frowned slightly, excusing myself from the conversation before making my way toward the front of the venue. The last thing I needed tonight, of all nights, was some kind of scene disrupting things. As I got closer, I could hear raised voices."You need to leave," Gabriel was saying, his arms crossed, blocking the entrance completely. "This isn't the time, he wouldn't want you here.""I just want to see him," the man argued, his voice rising in pitch, frustration bleeding into every word. "He's getting married. I have every right to see my nephew get married."My steps faltered the moment the word "nephew" rang in my
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 43: The stranger at the wedding.
Roseline's POV….I watched as candle flame lit the room, casting a soft, diamond glow while Poison & Wine by The Civil Wars echoed through the speakers.I stood before the altar in my white silk gown, its back corset holding me in a gentle, firm embrace. It looked just as exquisite as it had the day I first tried it on in the store, only today, I was actually walking down the aisle.My father squeezed my hands lightly, drifting me back to reality.I turned to look at my father. His eyes were filled with tears, and the moment he could no longer hold them back, they spilled over. Watching his little girl finally walk down the aisle was a dream come true for him.I fought to keep my own tears back, picturing my mother’s radiant face smiling proudly from somewhere in the crowd.Together, we moved slowly toward the altar. Up ahead, Florian stood waiting in his black suit, looking as charming as ever beside the officiant.When we finally reached the front, I was finally able to look at Flor

FLORIAN'S POV I stared at her face, she kept frowning and looking away, her lips pouting in that stubborn way she did whenever she didn't want to admit something."Why are you jealous?" I whispered into her ear."I already told you, I'm not," she said, but I could tell she was lying.I chuckled softly, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. "Okay, fine. You're not jealous. But let me explain anyway, since it's clearly bothering you."She glanced up at me, her eyes narrowing slightly, though I could tell she was listening now."Her name is Celine," I said. "We met back in college. We were friends first, good friends actually, and then somewhere along the way, things turned into something more. We dated for a while, maybe a year or so, but it just didn't work out. We wanted different things, and eventually we both realized we were better off as friends. That's it. There's nothing more to it than that.""So there's nothing between you two now?" she asked, her voice quieter, almos
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 41: Jealousy
Roseline's POV…The hug lingered for too long, squeezing the air right out of my lungs. When they finally pulled apart, a wide smile stretched across his face, one I don't think I'd ever seen on him before.“How have you been? It’s been forever,” he asked.“Yeah, the last time I saw you, you were talking about going to culinary school, and now I'm hearing you own your own company”She even knew about the company before I did.“How's your Dad?”Florian asked.They both began to head to the couch to have a seat, he didn't even notice me standing at the doorway.I felt a sting in my chest, a sharp burning pain.Was that jealousy??Gabriel sat at a corner on one of the couches his eyes fixed on his phone, he looked at me for a while and then turned back to his phone.The woman looked up, her eyes meeting mine.“I need something to drink,” she said to Florian. She coughed lightly, a cough I could tell was entirely faked.“Get me something to drink,” she repeated, this time looking at me.I
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 40: The strange lady
Roseline's POV…“What do you mean?” I asked.“Contract wedding or not, yours is in two days, and you are having a bridal shower,” Nina said.“Nina, I thought I—”“I don't want to hear a 'no',” she interrupted, taking a slow sip of her coffee. “You are having a bridal shower.”There was no point arguing with her because it seemed she had already made up her mind.I signaled for the waitress, and she came right over to take my order. It felt wonderful to get out for a change, eat at a different restaurant, and enjoy a meal that wasn't cooked by me or Florian.Florian never liked ordering food, I didn't know if it was a chef's thing or he was just used to it because he grew up like that.Come to think of it, he doesn't talk much about his childhood and his family.All I knew was that he lost his biological parents at a young age, and has been living with his adopted parents.I needed to ask him more about them, we were getting married in a few days.I looked up and the waitress hadn't ye
Tempted by my Godlike boss CHAPTER 39: The solution
ROSELINE'S POV “I don't know but I think I found a way for my father's health to get better,”I said.“Really?” Florian asked. Turning back quickly, his eyes widened in surprise.“Yes I met a woman at the hospital and she talked about something called immunotherapy and gene therapy, she said it doesn't work on everyone but it's something we have to try. It's really expensive but that's not really a problem,”I said.“Are you very sure about this?”“Yes I'm very sure, I want to try it”I said, The moment I walked away from the hospital that day, I felt so hopeful.I made inquiries about hospitals that gave such treatments, and did a little research about it.This was my chance to help my father and I wasn't going to give it up for anything.Florian was quiet for a moment, studying my face like he was trying to see just how serious I was about all of this."Roseline, I want you to know that whatever decision you make, I'll support you," he said. "If this is what you want to try, then we'
