Semua Bab Loveless CEO: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Retiring back to the office, even when Xander knew that it's already work close hour,but still assured that the office was the only place he can find total tranquility and be more useful to himself. His jaws groaned. He clenched his palms, feeling so disappointed and disheartened,walking down the dimly lit hallway, his thoughts heavy with the weight of his recent failure. He had been working tirelessly to bring the kidnappers of his sister, Ketty, to justice, but so far he has come up empty handed."Have a nice day sir." Susan bursts out of her office."Ooh.. Susan, I wasn't expecting you'll still be at the office till now.""Yeah, I actually had quite alot on my desk." She shots the door. "And needed to be done with it before heading home.""Ooh..I see, have a nice day then." Xander replies still walking to his office.She could sense that something wasn't just right seeing Mr Xander all alone back to the office at this time. 'why not I tell him about the paper company now.'she tho

(Three days after ketty's rescue)A light knock on Susan's door. The door handle moves down indicating an entrance. "Thank you so much. I mean, I didn't think confiding in a total stranger would be of any help." Xander says as he strolls in slow pace into her office."That was nothing. Anything for you sir." She giggle and roll her eyes back to her computer.Just then Xander walks even more closer. His fingers tapping her desk, simultaneously, looking subtly at her. "#We both know you didn't just do this for charity. What's the catch? Young lady!""Sorry I didn't get you properly?" Susan asks with looks of astonishment."Don't be sily, you heard me clearly."Hearing this, she chuckles blinking her eyes. "Are you for real?" Her jaws groaning as she stares at Xander in irritation. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Her head hungs backward. Is my mind playing tricks on me right now? she thought. "I did hear you, but not sure if that was for me. If you don't mind sir, with all du

"WHuuuu, that was close. ThankGod I was just in time."Ava talks to herself as she closes on a distance to her office door. She calmly pushes the door, then slamms it behind her, the moment she stepped in. Exhaling and inhaling breathes of relief. Her hands still cleched to the door handle. She is glad, she got to the office before her annoying boss, despite her lateness.She flicks her hand bag to the desk as she says her usual short prayers before any other work routine. Patting her head gently, she pulls the seat to her ass. "Mmmmm. WHuuuu," she let out her breathe when she perceives the freshly brewed coffee, about to take a sip, her phone beeps.Just then, she realises that her data connection has been active since last night and she had slept off without turning it off. "Ugh! Why now? Who is this, that doesn't care about my sanity?" In curiosity, she picks up her phone and behold, a message from none other than Mr Xander, her boss. She hesitates for a moment before finally openin

Seeing the sad look on Xander's face the moment she talked about mom's food, she smirks, "I"m so sorry I didn't mean for it to come out that way.""No... It's fine. I'm good now, atleast I've lived fifteen years of my life as an independent young man. What more could break me?"Susan chuckles in surprise. "Wow...fifiten years all by yourself, that must have being a really difficult time for you out there alone." "You don't wanna know about it." He giggles and roll his eyes. " But that's all past tense now.""Yeah... Cheers to the present and a better future." They both toast their glass tumbler cups of soft drinks in the air with beams of excitement.Few minutes later...Still drinking, Xander finds himself completely captivated by Susan that as he glances at his wrist watch, he couldn't believe how much he enjoyed her company and her sparkling conversation, surprised that they had already spent hours and it's looks like they are just getting started. "It's getting late, I guess you

"Mmmm, Ouch!" Susan wakes up with a pounding headache and intense feel of hunger in her stomach but her memories are hazy and fragmented. All she remembers is that, her boss Mr Xander had offered to drop her off at her apartment and when he did, she insisted that he comes in and they both drank red wine untill she had an hangover. "Ooh No! What have I done this time." She knows that it couldn't have been good since she is loose-liped when ever she gets tipsy.As she struggles to remember what happened, she reaches for her phone to call John. Just then,she hears a light knock on the door. To her surprise, she opens the door to see John standing outside. He peeked his head, giving a flashy peerly white smile as always. "Surprise!" He spreads his arms for a warm hugShe gasps in shock to see john. Just as if he always had a telescope somewhere pointed to the back of her head, seeing that he always showed up at the right time. "Ooh... Thank God. You're here, just right ontime. I was just
