YVONNE'S P.O.V

There's something wrong with Edgar

Okay, there's always, and I mean always something wrong with Edgar. During our five years of marriage, he's been paranoid, angry, tired, or something.

It was always something with him, so much so that I was used to his mood swings, how he would change from hot to cold faster than a broken faucet. The way he could be happy watching a soccer match one minute and the next is throwing a fit if his pasta isn't spicy enough.

  • Traded to my Husband's CEO Boss    Chapter 59

    YVONNE'S P.O.V“What do you mean by the thing you're already doing for me?” I repeated my question A muscle in Mr Voss's jaw flickered, the blaze in his eyes slowly softened, and he heaved out a sigh. “It's nothing. Just forget it”Silence fell over us; I could hear nothing but the distant hum of the plane's engine as it soared through the night sky. My fingers curled on my lap, my mind was in havoc “I can't" I admitted “I can't pretend or unhear what you just said. You were clearly hinting at something, tell me"His gaze drifted away from me for a split second towards the window, where he watched the passing clouds, and then dragged his eyes back to me. The navy was so dark, it was almost onyx. “You want to know the truth?" Those words dripped with a chilling, dark edge. “You want to know the sacrifices that I am already making just for you, is that the confirmation you need to understand that this—" he gestured sharply between us “—isn't just some temporary casual arrangements"H

    YVONNE'S P.O.V My lips wobbled, and moisture gathered in my eyes “Sasha…” Her name slipped from my lips in a whisper. “Sasha...is...”A firm, steadying grip came on my shoulders, holding me as the office spun around my head. “What is it?” I heard Mr Voss ask with an even edgeI tried to speak, I tried, but my throat was closed up. The phone in my hand trembled violently, the voice on the other end kept talking and asking questions but I could not process“Yvonne.” His tone shifted, softer but firmer. “Give me the phone.” I shook my head helplessly, my chest pounding. “Sasha... She...Florida”The first broken sob slipped out of me before I could control it. My mind had slammed into a roadblock, my heart stumbling. There were too many thoughts going on at once, along with the panic thumping in my veins Mr Voss didn’t hesitate. He gently but firmly took the phone from my grip, keeping me steady with his free hand“Yes, this is Clayton Voss speaking,” he said, calm, controlled, like t

    YVONNE’S P.O.VEach hour was longer than it should have been.Every time the phone on my desk rang, my heart leaped, hoping it was Mr Voss, but every time I was disappointed. The calls were from either the Management department, logistics team, P.R., or someone else I didn't really care for at the moment Even though there was work piled up on my desk, my mind continued circling back to him. Mr Voss hadn't sent for me since and that's so unlike him.By early evening, my chest was already too tight, the weight of our conversation earlier still crushing me. I may or may not have cried a little, the tears just came on their own after a few hours of staring at my blank laptop screen.“What do I do?" I asked myself, placing a hand on both sides of my face. I would have texted Sasha for advice, but she's been very busy on Set in Florida and she might not reply till laterI needed to do something now.I pushed off my seat before I could even come up with a plan. Should I talk to him? What w

    YVONNE'S P.O.VI released a long breath when Mr Voss shut the door behind us.The moment we were in the privacy of my office, a long sigh worked its way out of me. I placed a hand right over my erratically beating heart “Mr Voss…” I said, his name coming out like a question.I watched him stalk toward my desk, his movements were controlled but there was a stiffness to them. He began flipping through the conference documents I had been working on before leaving yesterday “That guy,” he spoke after a moment “What was his name again? The one with the buzz cut.”I couldn't help the shiver that ran down my spine I watched him carefully, noting the stiffness in his broad frame and the tight set of his shoulders. Something felt very off.“Derek" I answered, coming beside him and placing my bag on the desk.Mr Voss let out a low hum, the kind that sounded like he was going over something in his mind very carefully, “Derek,” he repeated slowly, as if the name itself had a bitter taste.I s

    YVONNE’S P.O.VThe initial playfulness in the air shifted, giving way to a tension that made my pulse thrumMr Voss took three long strides over to me, his long, powerful legs eating up the distance, my heart skipped in sync with him. The air around me suddenly feels warmer, for so many reasons.By the time Mr Voss stood in front of me, the silence was louder than the chatter before, and for some reason, Derek still had his hand on my shoulder, as if he had totally forgotten it was thereMe on the other hand? I couldn't move, heck I couldn't even breathe. My breath was caught somewhere in between my throat and my belly as his commanding presence towered over us all, over meHis unreadable gaze held mine, Mr Voss's jaw ticked twice, and then they shifted to the arm around my shoulder, which hardened My stomach tightened inappropriately. “Take your hand off,” he commanded calmly, too calmly. Derek froze like he’d just been doused with a bucket of ice water. The smile lingering on his

    YVONNE P.O.V“A...A favor" I echoed, my voice trembling slightly Phoebe nodded enthusiastically, standing by my side and slipping her elbow inside my arm. “Yes, Yvonne. Just a tiny winy favor. It won't take much from you" My anxiety level spiked higher with every ticking second. On one hand, these were my colleagues, what could they possibly want from me? On the other hand, I was already wound tight over a favor from a certain Royal someone, and the mere mention of another had unease prickling under my skin like needles “The thing is,” Maryrose continued, glancing back at the others who nodded silently, Lucianda rolled her eyes and whispered something into Daisy's ear, prompting them into a laughMy fingers trembled by my side for a moment before curling into a fist. I forced my expression to remain neutral, even though I knew they were trying to make fun of me.“It's the annual employee weekend trip is coming up" Maryrose explained, an unsure smile wobbling on her face, she was s

    YVONNE'S P.O.VMy head fell back and tingles spread all over my body.For a moment, for one beautiful moment, I ceased to exist. I felt his stubble on my jaw, scraping deliciously, I felt his lips on my chin, teasing me while his thumb… oh boy…Mr Voss's fingers were nothing short of magical.A flic

    YVONNE'S P.O.VSomehow, in between locking my lips with Mr Voss and kissing each other senseless, I found my keys in my purse.It was pure agony to separate from him so I could unlock my door, but we were outside on my porch, and anyone could see us. Besides, I couldn't do all the things I had in mi
