The Forgotten CEO 30. Simply Madness
"Liam…" She called him in a very low voice that it came out as a whisper. "Hmmm…?" He heard her though. He had closed his eyes while listening to her on the phone. Her voice was like music to his ears, soothing him. "No-nothing, are you busy now?" It was not like her to ask how he was doing. "No." He simply answered her. Who's not busy? He was actually very busy. As a CEO of the leading company, no one would expect him to have his free time. He had many meetings to attend to, he had so much in his hands right now. But for Jacyn, he could leave everything. "Really? Then could you make time to go to the hospital with me right now?" She asked him. Her grandfather will be discharged today and will continue to recuperate at home. He will have his private nurse to attend to his needs as they wait for their scheduled flight abroad."Yeah, sure. Where are you right now?" He was on his way to meet a client but since Jacyn called, he had to reschedule it. He meaningfully looked at Jawn Ng w
The Forgotten CEO 31. Never be the same again.
"Grandmother!" Jacyn tightly hugged her grandmother as she opened the door. She was surprised at how Jacyn acted towards her."Did you miss me that much? We just saw each other this morning." Grandmother Lou said laughingly at her granddaughter's sweet gestures. "I really missed you, Grandmother. And I am just trying to hug you as much as I can since you're still here with me." She said as she acted cutely in front of her.Grandmother was unhappy upon hearing her words. She was right. They will be separated again. Why were these circumstances always not in their favor? Why do they always have to part to keep each other alive? They were good people, must the heavens keep on punishing them like this?"Grandfather, are you ready to go home?" Jacyn asked her grandfather. Grandfather Hou Lou thoughtfully nodded to his dear granddaughter. They were already set. They were just waiting for them to arrive."Grandfather." Liam respectfully greeted him."Liam." He looked at him approvingly. Sin
The Forgotten CEO 32. No longer bound by the past.
"Let's get married." Jacyn stopped on her track without turning back. She had already walked away from him. "Jacyn, let's get married." He repeated it, louder than the first one. There was a hint of desperation in his voice. There were a few people who had heard him had stopped to look at them and wait for the outcome of his question. But eventually had to turn away from them after a few minutes of her silence.She heard him the first time, loud and clear. But she refused to turn back and look at him, she refused to let him see the surprise on her face. She didn't expect that he could still ask her to marry him despite all the things that happened between them. If he had asked her to marry him on that fateful day, maybe she had already said yes. She had hoped in the past to hear those words from him, especially on that day. But instead of proposing to her, he had asked another woman to marry him. What made it worse is he did it on their supposed third anniversary. She was left wi
The Forgotten CEO 33. Her Doubts
She silently watched as her grandparents entered the airport along with the private nurse and her grandfather's secretary. She sighed unhappily when she couldn't see them anymore. She couldn't wait to see them until their scheduled return three months later."Let's go, Jacyn." She looked back at Liam, whom she found looking at her intently. "Do you think everything will be okay?" She asked him, doubts clouding her mind. She was still uncertain of what the future holds. "Of course, don't you trust me?" Liam frowned at her. This girl doesn't trust him enough. Jacyn looked down shyly. She was left with no other choice but to depend on this man. If she could only start all over again, she wouldn't be as daring as before. She could have planned well and avoided getting the attention of the enemy that early. But it happened already, all she could do now is hope that it was not yet too late. "I should put my trust in you, right? As if I have a choice." Those words just slipped out of her
The Forgotten CEO 34. Her first day.
"Kring…kring…"Jacyn's standard ringing tone loudly rang. She was still sleepy as she answered the phone without looking at the caller's ID."He-hello!" She was half asleep. She couldn't sleep the night before. She just turned and turned and turned. It was already dawn when she finally fell asleep. "Jacyn, where the hell are you?" Young Master Lee roared angrily at the other side of the line. "Are you still sleeping?" She suddenly opened her eyes as she remembered that today was supposed to be her first day at the Lee Corporation. Why did she have to oversleep? She was actually a morning person who hates to wake up late. She also hated to be late, especially when going to work.She hastily got up and answered him. "I'll be there in ten." She cut the call immediately, not waiting for his response. She felt guilty but him, being angry at her, won't help.Young Master Lee gritted his teeth. He always goes to work at 9:00 in the morning. The standard time in for the employees was 8:00.
The Forgotten CEO 35. Liam's Personal Assistant
Liam was feeling restless. Every minute that passed that Jacyn wasn't around, he felt that something was wrong. Did she back out at the last minute? What changed her mind then? Was it his attitude yesterday? Did she suddenly feel afraid of him? Was he way too hard on her?"Young Master, the receptionist called. Miss Lou's on her way up here." Jawn Ng informed him. When Jawn learns about Jacyn working in the company, he had hoped to see the happy days ahead. He thought that their boss would always be in a good mood. The stressful days were over. Upon their arrival this morning and he saw no trace of Miss Lou, he was very worried especially when he noticed how the young master's mood turned from happy to sad. The temperature in the office suddenly dropped as the cold CEO showed his tantrums by asking them to submit reports that were supposed to be finished on the next day. Almost all the secretaries have been scolded. They were all trembling in fear.He felt relieved when he received a
The Forgotten CEO 36. The Overbearing Boss
Jacyn was too shocked. She couldn't understand why she had to live with him. Did she really have to do this? Was she really this desperate that she could trade her freedom and her privacy, just to learn and be personally trained by the legendary William Lee? She shook her head in disbelief. She looked at his unfazed face but found out that he wasn't just kidding around. He was serious on this matter.Liam saw how shocked she was. She may be regretting her decision now. Though it was really an advantage to him, this was all because of security issues. He knew that he could trust Uncle Shan and the other guards of the Lou's to protect Jacyn. But this is something he would do to make sure that she's okay. He would protect her personally. And having her around 24/7 will at least make his heart rest. "Do I really have to move in with you? If you want, I could just buy a new condo unit near here. That way, I could always be early to go to work," she suggested lamely. He was smart and she k
The Forgotten CEO 37. Going home together
"Let's go." Jacyn was stunned when Liam suddenly spoke behind her back. She was so immersed in her work that she didn't feel his presence. How long was he in there?"Wha-what? She stammered as she hastily saved the excel she's working in."I said let's go home together." He frowned at her. It was only her first day here and she already became deaf?"Home?What are you talking about?" She asked innocently as she joltingly fix her things."Did you forget? You'll be living with me." He raised a brow at her. He knew she was faking it to escape him. Didn't she know how cunning the young master is?"Oh..but - but I drove my car here. I'll just leave on my own. You can go first." She was looking for a way out. She wasn't ready with this set up."About your car - - I already asked Uncle Shan to take it back home." He said looking serious, but deep inside him, he was stifling a laugh. This girl was too innocent. Liam was always one step ahead of her.'Oh no!' She rolled her eyes at him. Who was
