That Night with the CEO

Past eight o’clock in the morning, when Gideon got out of his car. He increased his pace while fixing the button on his suit.Everyone greeted him when he started to enter Fierro’s Enterprise Building."Gideon you're late." Sam told Gideon emphatically as he hurriedly walked to the conference room."Is Mr. Carter here either?” Gideon ignored his Uncle's enraged but continued walking."Yes, and you're the only one waiting." Sam replied, annoyed.When Gideon entered the conference room, their emotions as he entered the meeting room were disappointed.“Move over.” He ordered his associates to begin the marketing data analysis that he would explain to the investors.After Gideon sat down, a small letter was placed on his desk."You owe me today." he looked at Freya and she winked.After a few moments of explaining the data analysis, Gideon asked for a break to talk to the investors in private. But before that happened, he pulled Freya outside the room and asked what the letter meant."I

After two days, Isabel tries to avoid Gideon as much as possible because of the temptation he shows her; seeing Gideon is only a reminder for her about the thing she was unable to do. Instead of blaming herself, she took control by being active at work in order to achieve her only goal: getting her brother medicine and an education.Since Gideon's arrival at the Resorts, customers have been attracted to come and check in, which is why the number of clients has been increasing in comparison to the previous few days. Because of a lot of customers, Isabel startled and accidentally bumped into Freya, spilling sauce on her dress."What the heck!" Freya exclaimed as she examined the sauce stain on her dress."I-I'm sorry, Ma'am, I'll just clean it up." Isabel immediately wiped the sauce with a clean rag, but it spread even more."You've just ruined it even more!" Freya was irritated.That scene grabbed attention, so some customers were looking at the two of them.Even Gideon, who was busy t

"I'm sorry, Sister; I shouldn't have fought with Marcus," Isaac said as he lay on the bed."I told you it's not bad to fight back, Isaac, but in your situation, you should stay away. You make me nervous," Isabel sighed as she stroked her brother's hair."Sister.. how long will I suffer from asthma? I'm jealous of my classmates who can do what they want. How can I have a girlfriend if I can't defend myself against those who fight with me?" Isaac explained, disappointed in himself."Isaac, you are strong and smart; I'm sure someone will like you just as much, but this time prioritize your studies and your health first, so I’m not getting worried anymore."Isaac gave a slight nod and smile. "I'm sorry, Sister; you've made so many sacrifices for me.""Come on, I love you, so I'll do anything to help you get better and not get back here in the hospital again."After a while, the nurse arrived to explain all of the medications they required along with their hospital bills. Isabel sighed dee

"Good evening, you didn't tell me you were busy with other things, that's why you couldn't go to work today?" Gideon sarcastically asked Isabel, his face solemn."Could you leave? Derek might return, and I don't want him to see you.""What happens if I don't?"Isabel smirked. "If you don't leave, I won't go back to the Resort.""How are you going to pay me?""I'll find a way, if only I could go back to the bar-""No!""What is your concern about that?"Gideon gave her a heartfelt look. "I'll leave here but promise to return to work at the Resort tomorrow." Isabel became silent. She is wondering why this man is concerned about her and how she pays back. She doesn't have a choice, though.“Okay. I’ll go back to work tomorrow…in the Resort.” she finally said.Gideon nodded and stood up. “Then I'll see you tomorrow." When Gideon returned to the table with Catherine, the businesswoman asked him about it.“Do you have a problem with that girl?” Catherine asked him.Gideon returned his gaz

Gideon slowly opened his eyes, noticing that his left arm was heavy, and looking at the woman who was leaning on it. When he saw Isabel sleeping soundly by his side, he couldn't stop smiling.Gideon removed the hair from Isabel's face with his right palm. "Beautiful," he said as he looked at her angelic face.“Hmmmm…” Isabel mumbled. "Oh.my.God.." was Alice's reaction when she got out of her room to see Isabel and Gideon sleeping side by side on the sofa."Ssshhh.." Gideon hushed because he didn't want to disturb Isabel's sleep.Even Isaac was stunned by what he saw."Um, Isaac, go to the shower now and I'll prepare breakfast." Alice said quickly so as not to disturb them.While Gideon could not get out of his place. Until Isabel slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes widened when she saw Gideon's smiling face next to him.“What the–”"Good morning." Gideon greeted her, smiling in her eyes._______“He’s late again!” Freya snorted as she looked outside the Resort, Gideon was an hour late.
