Chase’s POV

I stormed out of my apartment and Carmen hurried after me. She was practically running because she couldn’t keep up with my strides.

“Drive out the car from the garage,” I instructed Carmen.

We were now standing in front of four of my parked cars, and I expected Carmen to swing into action.

I was enraged beyond words, and even upset with Terry for thinking that I would accept a one-week suspension. Did they freaking think they were doing me a favor? I had never felt this humiliated and enraged before, and staying back there with both of them might push me into slamming their heads against each other.

Jonathan was beginning to come off as really annoying recently.

He always agreed to everything that was said without even fighting it. When he heard about the suspension, he hadn’t even known anything in particular to do. If Terry wasn’t present, he would have been completely clueless, and that wasn’t the kind of management head I wanted around me.

Terry wasn’t even supposed t

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   His Decision

    Carmen’s POV“What are you going to do about your feelings for him?” Millie asked me.I wondered why she was awake already when she would be sleeping, and more, I thought that she wouldn’t bring this up again like her told her not to yesterday.“I don’t want to talk about it, Millie, and I am late for work,” I said.“No, you are not,” she said simply because she knew when I went to work.Chase already texted me this morning that there wouldn’t be need for me to come to his house. He had already gone to his facility and I was to resume there. Well, originally, that was my major place of work, and not his apartment, so it didn’t feel off. Although, I couldn’t deny that I was still worried about his mood yesterday, which was what even led Millie to her awful conclusion.“I know that, but I don’t want to go late,” I said.I glanced at my reflection in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction at the outcome. My hair was packed in a neat bun so that it wouldn’t prevent my productivity for t

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   The Devil’s Offer

    Chase’s POVI contemplated for a minute whether or not to reverse and never come back.A friend of Donny’s was my enemy, and if Kevin was already entertaining Donny, then I didn’t need his gym anymore. Besides, I had my gym already, and it was serving me just fine, only that sometimes, I wanted different environment that wasn’t my house or my facility, and at the same time, not a crowded area.And I didn’t know any other gym in the city that was as exclusive as Kevin’s.“Give people the benefit of the doubt, Chase,” a voice in my head advised me.Usually, I wouldn’t bother about it because the moment I sensed that I was going to get played, I would walk away and never look back. This stemmed from what Donny did to me; the betrayal and manipulation and trying to take advantage of me.This was exactly why I didn’t even have friends.A lot of people were good at betrayals than loyalty, and I couldn’t afford someone else doing what Donny did to me, even if it would be in another form. It

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Back To His Torment

    Chase’s POVI called Hace after speaking with Terry.“What did I just hear?” I asked him.“I guess you have spoken to Terry,” Hace said.“Yes, I have, and I need to know why you didn’t tell me about this,” I scolded him.“I didn’t know until you had already left to confront Donny, and that was after Terry called me. He was going to speak to you about it, so I didn’t quite see the need,” Hace explained.Like Terry, Hace wouldn’t like to me. Their bloodline was honest and discreet, so I didn’t doubt him one bit, but it didn’t make me less upset.“What is Donny planning to do?” I asked Hace, knowing that he would know just as much as Terry did.“Well, from the information I got, Donny has been working on this plan for some months now,” Hace revealed.“What is his reason?” I asked.“Maybe he wants to get to you, Chase, but I am not sure,” Hace said. “It is just my thought,” he added.“Why do you think that?” I asked him.“You are the only kid who got away from his scheme and made out big,

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Worried Sick

    Carmen’s POVMillie took eternity to stare at the name as though it was the first time she was seeing it or hearing about it.I had told her about it, and even showed her the receipt when my rent was paid.“Why are you taking so long to look at it?” I asked her, tired of waiting for her to say something.The moment I called Millie in the morning and told her to come by the apartment in the evening when I would have been back from working for Chase, she had agreed immediately, almost as though she had been waiting for my call.When she walked in through the door some minutes ago, it hadn’t even felt like we had broken up and I had gone right to telling her all that happened, showing her all the groceries, and the name.“I am just confused, Carmen, a little,” Millie said.“Then stop staring at it,” I said and Millie dropped the paper.“What are you going to do now?” Millie asked.“Me? Isn’t it because I didn’t want to deal with this alone the reason you are here?” I asked her in return.

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Mission Impossible

    Carmen’s POV“I think I can make it just in time,” I told myself when I checked my wristwatch.It was early in the morning, and I believed that I would be able to hurry to the supermarket before meeting up with Chase. Now that he wasn’t going to be officially training, I wouldn’t have to go to work so early.I already knew the supermarket that brought me tons of groceries and provisions yesterday, courtesy of BSK, and I was headed there.It was a good thing that supermarkets opened early enough.First, it had been my rent, and now, groceries?Even though I had eaten some flakes and milk, which I had missed dearly for days now, I still couldn’t stop worrying about who that could have been. For the life of me, I couldn’t think of anyone else. The only people that ever did anything for me financially were my dad and Lori.So, who could this be?When the lady from the supermarket had called and told me about the groceries delivery, I had thought that she was talking about a few things, bu

  • The Billionaire Hockey King Stole A Kiss From Me   Firm Refusal

    Chase’s POVThe moment I arrived back at my apartment, I found Terry waiting for me, and with the look on his face, I knew that he knew already.“Linda, could you take the rest of the day off and resume tomorrow?” I asked my housekeeper.“Alright, Mr. Chase, thank you,” she responded.We both waited for Linda to leave before we said anything to each other.“What the heck, Chase?” Terry was the first to speak the moment Linda walked out through the door and he was certain that she was out of earshot.“What?” I asked as though I didn’t understand what Terry was on about.“Why did you go to Donny?” Terry asked me.“Why shouldn’t I?” I fired back.“I thought you had left your past behind,” Terry said.“Did Hace also tell you what he did to a young boy?” I asked Terry since he was being judgmental right now.“You mean Derrick?” Terry asked, much to my surprise.“You knew?” I asked him.“Yes, I do,” he said.“Since when?” I asked him.“Does it matter?” Terry asked me in return.“Just answer
