BREAKING MR CEO'S RULES의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

The MOD app had taken the world by storm and we were recording numbers we never imagined. It was a huge success."Damn girl! I knew you could do it" Thea yelled over the noise in the club. She'd thought it was something worth celebrating and so, we found ourselves at the club, on a typical friday night.I peered around trying to be subtle as possible. Thea gasped beside me, a sly smile on her face."You're looking for him, aren't you?" "What? Pfft. No!" I said a little too quickly."You are. Oh my God. You like him!" I shushed her."No, I don't. I was just looking around.""Yeah, for him." I rolled my eyes and asked her to drop it. There was a one in a million chance that he was actually going to come around.He didn't and I didn't want to admit to myself that I was actually disappointed. I had to distance myself from him. I had to forget every brush of his skin on my skin. Every smile he had given me because he didn't like me. He was only appreciative of my work. I groaned as I drag

“Dara, would you mind if I put you in charge of the team of the team today?” I spared a glance at her as I hurriedly stuffed my bag with work materials and everything I couldn’t take from home for an impromptu trip with Kol. Dara had been the most supportive and she had mad skills in design. She was capable of handling the team. All she needed was to be bolder and this task was supposed to help her do that. Her eyes bulged behind her glasses making her look funny. Those lenses were quite thick. “I’m sorry to spring this up on you last minutes but I believe in you. You can do it.” I cheered her on as I picked up my bag. To ease her stress, I asked for the team to cooperate with her and that if she had any issues with any of them or any at all, she shouldn’t hesitate to reach out to me. I had no idea where we were going. Only that we were going somewhere far. Kol’s call had woken me up so early in the morning. “Be ready by 10, we’ll be leaving for the airport. There is a global tech

He laughed. His laugh was so loud that I worried about him. For the first time I ever, I saw dimples in his cheeks. I had no idea he had them. I hated that he had more hidden features that made him more attractive than he already was. Dimples or not, I was still pissed at him."What exactly is funny Mr Drey?" My brows rose in defiance. I folded my hands over my chest, unconsciously lifting my b**bs higher. It didn't go unnoticed by him. I swallowed as he forced me into the door, the handle digging into my back."I thought I told you to call me Kol." "It's my mouth. I can call you whatever I want." I replied acidly. I expected him to draw back and leave in annoyance. He didn't. "and your mouth will put you in trouble." He said, placing his index finger on my lower lip. I inhaled sharply. I could hear my heart pounding so loudly in my chest. He moved his gaze from my lips and looked down into my eyes. My breath stopped short. His pupils were dilated and he leaned forward. I had no id

"Wha..what?" My eyes bulged wide, not believing my ears. I waited for him to explain himself."I shouldn't have kissed you." My heart shattered into thousands of fragments. My eyes welled up but I let him continue."I'm sorry I did. I wasn't thinking straight. After seeing you and you pissing me off..." He pinched the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes like he was in pain. He wasn't. I was. As if reminding himself he was veering off track, he said."I can't break my own rules. I didn't want to get involved with anyone who has had something to do with Jason or a co-worker." And I was both.I nodded my head in solemn realisation."I understand." He looked shocked. Like he hadn't expected me to be chill about it. "Tori..." I hated how lovely the moniker had sounded from his lips. I hated that I loved it."Victoria to you. Only Josh gets to call me that." His face hardened at that. He had no right to be upset. I was the one who let him kiss me. I was the fool. I walked to the door

"What?"I cleaned my ears to make sure I wasn't just hearing things. He rolled his eyes."I said I need your help." He gritted his teeth. I was tempted to smile but I played it cool. Sure, I had risen to the role of assistant team manager in quite a short time but, I never thought the day would come where he'd outrightly ask for my help."What do you need help with?" "I've selected a handful of people who I've decided to work with. We're about to launch a new device, a tablet with a different feature than the ones we have created and we're trying to keep it hush till the launch day." Because of Jason. He didn't need to say it.Jason was just a big bully and a scoundrel. I could see the pain on his face when he said it no matter how quickly he tried to mask it. It was hard for me to admit it to myself but I'd begun to notice the small details about him. The subtle way he scratched his chin when he was confused or the way his eyebrows rose subtly when he was shocked."So, do you agree
