Lahat ng Kabanata ng Be Gentle With Me, Mr. CEO: Kabanata 241 - Kabanata 250

Hearing this, Mercer rubbed his nose and asked, "How many more days?"Calla smiled as she replied, "About three more days.""Alright." Mercer frowned, then forced a smile.Calla quickly pushed him away, looking outside the window, where the city lights were already brightly lit. She asked, "You must be hungry, right?""Starving," Mercer replied, embracing her again."I'll go make dinner. Stop messing around." Calla struggled to push him away, then hurried into the kitchen.She found ingredients in the fridge and started preparing their meal. As she washed and chopped the vegetables, her face flushed red. Today felt as fleeting and unreal as a dream, but she was in such a good mood. The darkness and sorrow in her heart seemed to have vanished, replaced by pure joy and delight.While she was chopping vegetables, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist from behind. Calla laughed. "Go watch some TV. Dinner will be ready soon."But the person behind her refused to leave. "I'd rath

Mercer stood up and walked toward the bathroom, saying, "I'm going to take a shower."Calla quickly ran to block his way, anxious. "Go home to shower!"Seeing her urgency, Mercer grabbed her chin and smirked. "I'm spending the night here." "No way!" Calla gasped, her eyes widening in shock.If he stayed here, goodness, that would mean they'd be living together again. She wasn't ready for such a quick transition and needed time to adjust.Mercer studied her for a moment, then suggested, "If you don't want me to stay here, that's fine. You can come and stay at my place then."With that, he took her hand and started to head for the door."Oh, stop it, will you?" Calla shook off his hand."I'm not joking. I'm dead serious. I don't want to be apart from you anymore." Mercer smoothly pulled her into his arms.His embrace was still as warm and broad as ever. Resting her head against his chest, Calla couldn't resist his request. She murmured, "Alright, you can stay. But let me make t

Since Mercer was very accommodating today, Calla flattered him the whole time. During the meal, she placed food on Mercer's plate several times, but he didn't look at her once. The message was clear: he was angry.Having two students was a good thing. Mercer no longer had to do chores like washing dishes. He even got pampered with a cup of tea after each meal. During breaks, there were even pre-cut fruit platters for snacks.Mercer was as meticulous as ever in his lessons. Even during breaks, his face was somber. Now that he was their teacher, Alicia treated him with utmost respect. Naturally, Calla did the same.Before they knew it, the evening lesson was over. There hadn't been a single laugh throughout, and Calla felt a bit stifled but still learned a lot.At 10:00 pm sharp, Mercer sat on the couch with no intention of leaving.Alicia pulled her suitcase over and smiled sheepishly. "I'm staying here tonight. 30 days of intensive training should be enough to pass the CPA exam.

Calla ran into the bathroom, closing the door behind her. She hugged her pajamas to her chest and looked up at the ceiling, unable to suppress a smile. She kept replaying their intimate moments in her mind. When Mercer made love to her, he did seem quite serious.…At noon the next day, the doorbell suddenly rang as Calla was about to take a short nap after lunch. She wondered who could be coming now. She put on her slippers and went to answer the door.Seeing who stood outside, she frowned. "What are you doing here?"He didn't say a word, stepping inside and closing the door behind him."You..." Calla noticed his eyes were fixed intently on her. She glanced down at her pajamas and wondered if something was wrong with her appearance.The next moment, Mercer stepped forward and sealed her lips with a kiss."What... are you... doing?" Calla struggled, but he held her too tightly for her to break free.When his hands started tugging at her clothes, she finally understood his p

"Oh, stop it!" Calla picked up the knife and continued chopping vegetables.Alicia smirked with her arms crossed. "So, how many times did you both do it this afternoon? I only saw two in the trash, though!" Alicia held up two fingers mischievously. Already blushing from the teasing, Calla quickly retorted, "What's the matter? Are you jealous? If you want it so much, go find yourself a boyfriend. No one would care if you made out ten times in an afternoon!""Ouch! You're hitting a sore spot. I'm not talking to you anymore!" Alicia pouted at the mention of a boyfriend, then turned to do other chores.Calla saw Alicia's sulky expression and smiled, enjoying the quiet. Alicia was two years older, but she'd never had a boyfriend, let alone gotten hitched. She talked a big game, but she had never been in a relationship.That evening, Calla kept yawning during class. She was exhausted after all the sex. Having fought through an afternoon of cleaning and cooking didn't help either. All
