Chapter 13

Sebastian’s point of view

The environment was as greenish as I remembered, calm and the seething epitome of serenity. It was indeed the perfect place for her.

I coursed through the passage that led to her assigned ward, my gaze locked on the picture hidden inside the locket hung to my necklace.

I don’t wear the necklace often, but I keep it with me at all times. I usually bring it out whenever I’m visiting, because it’s the one object that reminds her of me.

I arrived at the room, and opened the door to her seated comfortably on her rocking chair, carefully knitting on what seems like a sweater and humming a delicate sound along.

“Nana,” I called out softly for her attention.

She looked up at me at the heard of my voice, confusion on her face as she sized me up and down. “Who are you, gentleman?”

I snickered at her question as I walked over to her, bringing the locket I had with me into display. “I’m this guy,” I showed her the picture tucked away inside the locket.

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 14

    Chapter 14 Ryan’s point of view “Mom can I talk to you in private?” I flashed out a forced smile as I gestured at her to follow me upstairs. “Sure honey.” She patted the duke’s girl as she stood up and walked after me. I said nothing yet as we ascended the stairs and waited for us to enter my room before I turn around to let out my serious reaction. “What the fuck?” My arms flayed up in addition. “Betrothed? When? Where? How? Why?” “Calm down,” “How on earth did you expect me to calm down about this? All of a goddamn sudden!” “It was the right thing to do,” she said all of a sudden, crossing her arms over her chest as she slowly paced to the side of my room. “You were becoming more insolent than before, doing a lot of things without thinking. This was the right call,” she enlightened, spoken like a true villain. “I don’t get you. Insolent how? What are you on about?” “When your sister showed me that video of you online, abruptly pulling that Sebastian into a kiss, I knew at

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 15

    Chapter 15 Sebastian’s point of view The next day came faster than I expected. I’d gave one of the board members a phone call yesterday to cancel the meeting they’ve scheduled and defer it for today’s noon. He was to round around the decision and keep everyone informed. The visit yesterday has gotten me in a bit of a sentimental mood that I didn’t want everyone to be able to read or observe. So there was no way I could attend that meeting with an aura like such, gloomy and like not myself. I mean sure I’m a master of poker faces, but lately my face has been wearing emotions far more than I can count. And it’ll be a major let down in my life if I let those roaches read into my mood so I better run instead. Donna was the first person that came to me as soon as I stepped into the company, all professional and quirky as usual. “Good morning Seb, what’s with the mood? It’s extra dark and intense. You had a fight with someone before you got here?” She quizzed as she reached to collect

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 16

    Chapter 16 Ryan’s point of view My phone pinged beside the documents I was going through and I was going to ignore whoever texted until another ping came in again, and again, and again until I took a pause with what I was doing and check out who and what the text was about. It was from Donna, Seb’s secretary. Yeah I forgot she has my contacts. …Why is your sister Seb’s new secretary?… …Is she disowned like she claimed?……Or broke like she said?… ….Did you send her here?…. I read the texts gotten from her. Confused at first, but then analyzed and comprehended her words. My sister is Seb’s new secretary. Now Donna is confused on whatever Vee must have cooked for them. She must have lied to Seb that she’s broke, disowned, and needed to stand on her own was why she needed a job. Gullible Seb too must have fallen for her lies and allowed that vicious snake into his space for Donna to reach out to me in panic. I have to talk to Seb. …..Can you set up a meeting between Seb and I.

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 17

    Chapter 17 Sebastian’s point of view “Yes it’s all in the presentation that was emailed to you. I’m quite the perfectionist, so I’ve drafted the answers to all the questions you might have, no single details left unraveled, it’s all in the file. Kindly go through it and let me know your feedback,” I spoke into my phone. “Alright then, pleasure doing business with you.” “The pleasure is mine.” The call ended afterwards and a smile drew onto my lips. I’ve finally landed The Aces into a deal with me, and our partnership is promised to be all over the air tomorrow. It was worth the smile on my face. If only Xavier hadn’t been a pain to the neck, and managed to become an investor as well then I would have become over-joyous. Now I need to hunt harder for another multi-billionaire tycoon to either invest with me or partner with my work. Both of which will always benefit me. A knock rain down on my door, that halted my moment of glory abruptly. Who could be knocking? Donna has a lan

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 18

    Chapter 18 Ryan’s point of view “So you mean to say it was I who invited you over to LA? Via a letter?” I didn’t wait for her to respond before I continued, “If we’ve been in contact through letters in 2026 that there is no use for mobile phones or media services, how come I wasn’t enthusiastic about your arrival? I wonder why I’d prioritize my work over spending some time with you?” I wanted her to see the shade in this whole situation, how she’s a victim of a plot. She’d nodded alongside my words that I believed she has seen what I wanted her to see. “I didn’t even know. I thought it was because I refused your invitation because I wanted to surprise you with my presence instead, so I thought you were pissed that I refused and showed up unannounced. And I still think you prioritized your work over me because you’re still pissed at me?” She answered my rhetorical questions and proceed to prove to me that there is absolutely nothing useful inside that pretty head of hers. Useless.

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 19

    Chapter 19 Sebastian’s point of view I read through the article Donna shoved in my face and force me to go through to believe that Vivian was a liar and that she’s here with a motive. She badly wanted me to sack her, but all I’ve seen or read in here weren’t implicating enough. If anything, they just proved more truths to her words. That she was indeed rich and has everything until she go broke. I’m sure her family wouldn’t publish the decision they took to disown her so the family wouldn’t have a bad stain on them, and she on the other hand wouldn’t like the story out in the happen because of her shame. It’s pretty understandable to why it’s not known that she’s disown or broke. I’ll need more than articles to believe Donna over Vivian’s story. My phone buzzed, and a text came in. I dropped Donna’s phone for her so I could check out the text I received, it was the perfect distraction to be done with Donna’s trouble. Xavier has texted me the address of where he wanted us to mee

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 20

    Chapter 20 Ryan’s point of view When I got Donna’s text regarding the task I gave her to set a meeting up between Seb and I, she’d told me about Seb’s date with a client of his, namely Xavier Rodriguez. The weird guy we both met at the governor’s party. Why were they going on a date? Donna didn’t include the details. I’ve gotten only the location, and when Marcelene texted me hi that she just collected my contact from my mother. I knew exactly how I’m going to see Seb tonight. I decided to invite Marcelene out to a night out at the city and she was delighted to accompany me. And so was my mother when I arrived with a car to pick Marcelene up, she has no idea what I’ve done or had in store for her. I can’t wait to see the look on her face when tomorrow comes and she meets with the fate of her schemes. “Where exactly are we going though? I never asked?” Marcelene asked as she fastened her seatbelt around her. Since I wouldn’t like myself a driver, and prefer to drive myself aroun

    Chapter 21 Sebastian’s point of view “Seb! Seb! Seb wait!” The recognizable voice chanted from my behind as I walked into the restroom. I turned around with the aim to bang the door on his face when his body pushed through and his scent flexed straight for my nostrils. He kept himself close to me as he grabbed me by my shoulder and pushed me into the nearest wall. His face a view of desperation as he scoured me in a longing gaze. “Why are you doing this to me?” His jaw tightened as he quizzed in distress. I looked away from his eyes and down to the hands that were on my shoulder. “Get your hands off me!” I warned in a gentle tone. He dropped the hands, but circled his left one around my neck as he gently nudged his forehead into mine. His hot passionate breaths fanning into my face. “Haven’t you done enough?” His eyes closed as he sniffed in a long breath. “Fuck, I’m gonna go crazy.” His lips edged onto mine as he worked his way into my mouth.I stood there, dumbfounded like a

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 65

    Chapter 65Sebastian’s point of view I already had men on Vivian’s trail, keeping track of her every moves just in case she’d make any that confirms my suspicions about her. Today was however, another day for me to tackle with the bald fuckers on my board committee. Those fuckers are always up to something, but the fear they all have for me is what keeping them all in check. That fear won’t last long, I need to constantly remind them why none of my enemies have ever triumphed. Not now, not never, and not in the nearest future. Donna came in early as usual to prep me up on why the board has requested a meeting. It has to do with the recent rumors of me and Ryan, and how the headlines might affect the growth of their invest. “Seriously they’re just old drunks, don’t mind whatever they have to say. You do you, and remind them who the boss is,” Donna said after she was done going over the few hiccups we’ve been dealing with over the weeks. Other than the alliances I’ve struck with t

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 64

    Chapter 64Ryan’s point of view I decided it was better to finish up with Marcelene first before I go on and about the rest of my day, so instead of a visit first to the hospital to check on my gramps, we rode instead to the court we’ve picked out to get us married. I already spoke with the court’s officiators beforehand, as well as our legal marriage registrar, they’re currently waiting for us to be the first they’ll attend to today. This of course sets Marcelene on a glee path to hear that I’m fulfilling my promise finally, she’s tried all she could to get me to talk to her about why I’m stuck in a gloomy mood, but I’ve only dead the attempts and kept to myself. I don’t know how I’d open my mouth to tell that the guy I’m in love with was revealed to me yesterday’s night to be the murderer of my father, and the same guy might have requested me to stay away from him. A request I agreed to because I forced myself to think it’s for his happiness. And to think I wasn’t truly going t

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 63

    Chapter 63 Sebastian’s point of view No way. He betrayed me once, so he wouldn’t try it again. He wouldn’t release my psycho brother from jail just because he wanted my downfall, the same brother he knew tried to kill me and nearly had me forever on life support. I simply refuse to think he would. I was seated patiently in the darkness, he should be here in One… Two… The door creaked open, and his hand went straight to the switch. Upon giving light to the room, he met me seated right on his bed, backed up to the headboard with a small remote with just a single button on it. “Mirroring my moves I see,” he said, but I smiled back at him. “I upgraded it,” I told him before I slammed on the remote I have with me and brought down the machine mask also with me over my face. Soon enough, gas flooded out and began to smoke up the whole room. I watched him struggle to react against the gas, but soon fell victim and collapsed on the floor unconscious. It was only then I jumped do

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 62

    Chapter 62Sebastian’s point of view It just goes on to prove that Ryan truly was a white snake under a white armor, he was no knight for me at all, he’s a snake and has always been. I remember the night Donna came for a sleepover at my house, when she told me about the arranged engagement. We spoke about it all night and kind of agreed that there’s no way Ryan would actually consider the arrangement. Yes at that time a part of me believed he wouldn’t do it because he said he’s in love with me, while the other part just didn’t want an old friend to get into a lifelong of unhappiness. But little did I know that I was the fool, because tell me why Ryan was captured hand in hand smiling as he secretly exit the court with his new wife beside him. I recognized the chick, it was the same girl she brought with him to the club. Why do people betray? Like I’m genuinely confused, why do you feel the need to break someone’s trust and shatter the loyalty they’ve built up for you? Is it a fun

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 61

    Chapter 61 Sebastian’s point of view “It’s either you forgive me or I fire you,” I threw at her the moment I saw her walked through the door into my office. I was tired of the malice, as much as I preferred her silence, I hated that she was doing it with a negative mind. I couldn’t care less about her attention, but I just wanted us to be back on a good page. Afterwards, she can go back to ghosting me, that I can pray for. I’ve given her chocolates, gifts, money and any other things I could think of to get her forgiveness. At some point I even told Ryan to talk to her for me, which he did and he told me that she wasn’t interested in talking about the beef between us. Ugh! “What do you mean Sir? Forgive you for what Sir if I may ask?” She feigned ignorance, her brows perked in confusion. “Don’t play dumb with me. I’ve apologized, what else do you want?” I raised my tone a little bit at her, enough to show just how far this little game of hers is starting to annoy me. “Apo

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 60

    Chapter 60 Ryan’s point of view I might be right about the weird uncle after all, he’s been onto me forty hours later of our arrival. He requested a personal audience with me, but Marcy refused the honor once I told her about it. She said that uncle of hers was not to be trusted or someone nice to be around. Said I must try and avoid him at all cost. Marcy was at an event at the moment, an event that doesn’t much require my presence so I opt for a walk in the gardens instead. A fine chance for me to get a hold of things back at home, I haven’t had the chance to call and speak to Seb since we arrived here. We’ve been stuck with balls, parties, royal events and more. It’s been stressful. Seb finally picked my call, probably at the last ring. “Hello,” his cold handsome voice rang out into my ears. “Tell me you’ve missed me,” I asked of him jokingly. “That’s until I’m informed of who this is. Who are you?” He hit back. I chuckled lightly at his words, he’s only playing along

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 59

    Chapter 59Sebastian’s point of view “Wakey wakey little brother, get out of that dream world already.” I tapped repeatedly on his cheek until his drowsy eyes slowly pulled wide and apart till he jerked at the sight of my face. Good one! He’s awake. His head snapped around for a three sixty room inspection. Oh we’re no longer in his apartment, or even somewhere neat enough to conserve his death. I brought him to my private warehouse, where I’ve gotten most of my darkest shit done.“Where are we? What is this place? You?” His furious gaze trailed back to me, deadly and a sight for me to laugh at. I let out a deep breath before I stepped back from him. “This will either be the place you die or the place where you save yourself,” I began, then turned my back and walked over to the table in the room with us. On the table was a tray that carried various items that I’ve had provided for me to draw on his blood and carve pain into his skins. There we have a blade, dagger, a lot of sharp

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 58

    Chapter 58 Ryan’s point of view I don’t know if my mom was running away from the house, but she hasn’t been around ever since I got married. Today is the day Marcy and I leave for her home city, and mom still hasn’t show up for me to inform her as well as talk about Seb with her. I spent the whole of yesterday with Seb, so I had time to tell him about the trip and how much I wish he could accompany me. He told me even if Marcy had allow me bring him, he wouldn’t have accepted my invitation because he doesn’t have any business with my contracted wife’s family. I don’t know if mom is scared to confront me or exactly why she has refused to show her face, but it’s starting to get less suspicious and more frightening. Is she okay? I’d ask Vivian about it, but I’m sure she doesn’t care, albeit she’s an exact replica of that woman’s witchy persona. Seb told me he fired her already. And I’m more than happy to hear that, her away from Seb is a long space away from bad things. I cou

  • The CEO’s Private Desires    Chapter 57

    Chapter 57 Sebastian’s point of view I might have buried my brother today, but I also flattened stuffs out with Ryan, and met up with my grandmother whose memories of me suddenly came back to her. I could say the gloom which started the day for me has approached a version of an ecstatic ending. It’s four in the evening already, but it’s not yet the time to call the day to an end. While I finished up with my grandmother, I took the liberty to book me and Ryan’s sister a reservation at one of the city’s coolest restaurants not far from the company, then sent her a text to meet up with me there for the date I spoke about with her. Universe so good, we arrived at the location at the same time and literally went in together to the seats booked in our names. “What would you like to have?” I asked seconds after we’re settled into our seats and flicked a glance at the menu script. “Water or wine is surely fine by me at the moment, can’t have dinner here because tradition would deman
