Cameron didn't eventually eat breakfast with the kids because he had to take a quick call, Ruby decided to cook him something and take it to his work. She would go to the hospital to see Olivia and Liam to see how they were and go pick up the kids after. But first, she needed to be sure no one else is scheduled to pick them up because she wouldn't want to run into anyone again this time. She made pasta with marinara sauce and chicken and then packed a lunch box with hot coffee in a thermos and bottled water. She got out of the house and walked to the waiting cab. This wasn't her job, and most might think it was because of her attraction to her boss, but they had nothing to do with one another. She was only doing this because she wanted to. After she told the taxi man where she needed to go, she settled down against the seat with her phone in hand to text Olivia she would be coming over to the hospital. She would definitely see the children at the children’s ward. It's been a while

Ruby frowned, surprised that he was not denying it like she expected him to. But, she knew he wouldn't be able to because it had something to do with the meeting he had just had with them and what he had told her that night. What surprised her even more, was the fact that he was acting to it. He didn't have to, the people with him, whoever they were had already believed it.“It's nice to meet you, Ruby.” One of the men said. "I see you brought him lunch. This is really good, and I think the show of stability is enough for us to reschedule and discuss the term of the contract.” Cameron looked from Ruby to Mr. Mackenzie, as he talked about talking about the term of the contract. This deal was a multimillion deal, and Ruby’s decision to bring him lunch had given it to him. Mrs. Brandy nodded in agreement. "I guess we're going to be seeing more of one another.” She said. This was surprising. This morning when the meeting started, they had made their point clear about not wanting to do

“What?” Was he trying to play pranks on her? Was that some kind of joke? What the hell was he talking about? “I was there at the restaurant. My family was upstairs for dinner and I arrived while he was yelling about your clothes. I had gotten the feeling to come to punch the hell out of him, but I was with my kids and couldn't do that.” He said. “Holy shit!” Ruby whispered. She couldn't believe that her boss had seen her in such an embarrassing situation. Maybe he had recognized her the first time they met and that was why he didn't want her, but that didn't sound like it. It didn't make any sense. As if he heard her thoughts, he said. "I didn't even see your face or anything, but I knew you didn't deserve how the ass was treating you. He had no right to embarrass you that way.” Ruby agreed with a nod, but at the time, she couldn't do anything. She had only said what she thought was right, and she had gone home to cry. But, thinking about it now, she wondered why he was so inter

“Dance with me?" Cameron said. They had gotten home after they left the hospital and he said he had told his secretary to cancel his plan for the day. He invited her to his office right after they both went to shower and then she came downstairs. When she walked into his office, she didn't expect him to ask her to dance with him or play slow music in his office. She didn't even know he had the music box in his office. She could tell that it was because he was in a good mood, and nothing special but this was a dangerous territory for her. He might only want her to dance with him because of the deal, or because he was just happy generally, but her idiotic brain was already reading too much into it. She wanted to shake her head and say no, but she also wanted to nod her head and say yes. The frustrating thoughts that kept roaming around her head were what she just couldn't understand or get rid of. She wanted to do both the words and opposite of things that came to mind with him, get

Instead of pushing him back and getting away from him as her brain told her to, she moved even closer to him. She pressed her lips against his as softly, and sweetly as she saw fit. At the back of her mind, the warning bell kept ringing but she turned deaf ears to it.Damn it, Ruby! Her mind chastised. This was her boss, the man who had wanted nothing with her when she first arrived, but here she was kissing him as if her life depended on it. Maybe it does, who knows? This was the first time in a very long while that she had kissed a man, or in this case and any, allowed a man to kiss her. Although she expected it to feel odd, or foreign, but it was as natural as sleeping and waking up. It felt like it was something she had always done with him, yet, so new and refreshing. His lips shifted against hers and he deepened the kiss. When his mouth opened over hers, hers opened as well and his tongue slipped between her lips, licking the roof of her mouth and then sucking her bottom lip i
