All Chapters of The Love I Have Hoped For: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Meeting the GenieThe limo stopped in front of Liberty Hotel. My heart would burst anytime soon. I have never felt so nervous before. What if he won’t be happy to see me? What if tonight will be the first and the last time I would meet him? At the same time, I also feel excited. This is the first time I would go out on a formal date. I will finally be able to meet him, the man who has taken care of me for the last two weeks, the man who gave a me a roller-coaster kind of emotions, some days full of sadness but most of the time, full of excitement and happiness.A man in his early thirties welcomed me at the entrance. "Good evening, Miss Myers. Our boss is now waiting for you in the rooftop. This way please." He bowed while leading the way using his right hand.I followed him towards the elevator. As I entered, the man said. "Enjoy your evening Miss Myers""Won't you be coming with me?" I asked."Someone will assist you when

Is it really him? I haven't been in touch with him for 12 years now, and here he is in front of me, smiling like we just met yesterday. He looks so young for his age, no one would say that he is now in his early 30s. For a CEO, I think he doesn't have much stress. He still smiles a lot, since a while back until now, he was able to keep that smile on his face. His lips are pinkish in color, a sign that he doesn't smoke. He is wearing a shirt and a coat jacket on top, blue jeans and white sneakers. Who would think that this guy can be a CEO, and he is not managing just any company, he is managing the biggest and most famous hotel in the state, including other subsidiaries?He was staring at me as I was also staring at him. I felt a bit awkward. He is now sitting in front of me and he made the space between us closer."Did you miss me?" He finally broke the silence."So, it's really you." I said pouting."Why do you seem disappointed? Were you expecting anot

I thought of rejecting his suggestion of spending the night in Liberty Hotel but in the end, I accepted it. We agreed to take things slowly and he won't do anything that can make me feel scared trusting him more.When we reached the room on the 42nd floor, I was surprised that he already has the key card. He really prepared everything, and he already expected the sequence of events tonight.The room is still decorated with an oriental style of furniture. Everything is the same. I was expecting he would at least prepare something, like flowers or it will be candlelit. I was quite disappointed. The consequence of expecting too much."Do you want to stay here or in the bedroom?" Geoff asked."Anywhere is okay." I said pouting.He looked at me with a smile. I avoided his gaze. I know he would just tease me again. He opened the fridge and got a bottle of red wine. Then he took two wine glasses from the shelf."Could you open the bedroom door for

Geoff brought me back to the Pines Advertising office before going to his meeting. We sat at the back seat in his Rolls Royce and it was so comforting to just lay my head on his shoulder while we exchange kisses from time to time. I never thought kissing would be this addictive. The presence of his driver didn't stop us to be more intimate and show our affection to each other."I could eat you whole if you would just allow me. You're making me want you more and more." He said."Wait until our wedding night." I replied. We separated with a kiss and promised to meet tonight.Having the contract signed by Geoff in hand, I went directly to Mr. Smith's office. He was smiling from ear to ear when I handed him the signed documents and told me to review the interview notes with the applicants done by my colleagues This will be the start of a so busy life in the office for me.Time passed by so fast. When I checked the time, it is already past 6pm. I checked my phone immediately, maybe Geoff is

Geoff just looked at me. He didn't say anything. I understood that time that he trusts me, and he supports my decision. I feel sorry for him. This time should be my time with him."Hello." I answered the call."Jez! I was already worried when you were not answering the call. I am here in front of your apartment. I have been waiting for an hour now. What time will you come home?" He asked. I put the call on loudspeaker so Geoff can hear our conversation.When Geoff heard it, he turned his back at me."Lance, sorry. I am here in Annie's place. You remember her, right? I was with her when I was at the bar the first time we met. We have to finish some reports tonight." I lied."Where is her place? I can go there. I just want to see you tonight, even only for 5 minutes.""I think I can't invite you here. This is her place, and I can't give her address to anyone. I hope you understand." I was hoping he would just give up. This situation is getting
