บททั้งหมดของ Mr. CEO and His Secretary : บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

MaxwellThe boy was very excited and small. Kyle.I've never really had to deal with anything or one that small, and he grabbed my hand once we got to the amusement park, startling me."Let's go to this place" he said as he dragged me to a section that attended to rides and I shook my head."Uhm... How about we go for that one?" I pointed to the water slides in the corner, but he was already queuing for the rides.F*ck! I hate rides more than anything in this world."Whoo!" The boy squealed once we were strapped to our chairs, his small body moving in the large chair and I closed my eyes at the start of the ride.Sh*t! Why did I involve myself in this?*Flashback*What is your name?" Kyle, the son of my secretary who had followed me up the stairs, asked as I walked into my room and I turned to face him.I thought of the question, "uncle... Max..."He pursed his lips, "uncle Max?""Hmm, hmm""So you're my mom's boss, right?" I nodded, "Correct.""Then you're the one who has been keep

Raya"What? Business trip?" Kendall was just as flabbergasted as I was when I told her later that evening at her house and she turned away from the cookies she had just popped into her oven."But you've never had to go on a business trip before.""I know right. It's just so sudden.""To which country though?"I cocked my eyebrows at her, "that's not the point here. It's the fact that I'm going to be separated from Kyle and I don't even know for how long.""True" she toned down the happiness I had seen on her face."But still... You could use it as a mini-vacation. You have, like, literally never gone out of New York since you were born."I rolled my eyes, "true, but it's called a business trip for a reason, not a mini-vacation.""Hey, but I'm sure you'll be able to relax, sight-see and eat foreign foods." I rolled my eyes again, "how do I tell Kyle though? We've, literally, never separated from each other before, and it might seem strange to him.""Are you sure you're not the one bei

RayaWhat?A wedding?I paused in my tracks to process that and waited for Mr. Sterling to notice my absence from his side, before confronting him about it."What are we doing here? At your brother and his fiancée's wedding...""I was invited, remember?""But I wasn't.""You're here to help me, not to attend the wedding. We'll just be here till it's over"I stared at him dumbfounded but had to follow after him. After all, he kind of made sense, but he could just have put me in a hotel or something, instead of bringing me here."This is where you'll be staying" the assistant who had led us the whole way to our room said as she stopped in front of a door and I waited for her to show us another door.They both walked in, and I went in after them too."If you need anything, you can get me on that landline.""Okay, that'll be all then.""Wait? What of my room?" They both turned to me like I was an alien.Mr. Sterling waved the woman away, and I turned to him, flabbergasted, "I need my room

MaxwellI stared at my secretary who left, confused about what I had done.But wasn't that the truth?She had a child yet was always acting coy and innocent like she had never had sex before or seen a naked man before.I huffed and got into the bathroom, taking a long shower and by the time I got out, she was still not back in the room.Where could she have gone?I shook the thought off my mind, and got on my bed to roam around the internet as well as focus on work a bit and when I heard footsteps heading close to the room, I wasn't sure why I did it, but I pretended to be asleep.Maybe for her comfort, maybe to avoid the awkwardness, I stayed still on the bed as she shuffled around the room, then I heard her talking quietly, away from me."My baby""I miss you too.""I didn't call, because I thought it would be night.""How are you doing?"She must be talking to her son.I stayed like that till she was done with the call, holding my breath in order not to give myself away, and I took

MaxwellMost of the guests were already arriving by the time we got back to the resort and that included my parents too.I excused myself from the room to go meet them.My mum immediately hugged me on seeing me, "I'm guessing you've accepted it now, seeing that you came early."I rolled my eyes, "I came for business, not just the wedding, and did you really have to fly out people just to hold the wedding in Thailand?""The bride wanted it" my dad interjected, "...and her family agreed too""Well, whatever.""I'm proud of how you handled the matter" my dad said, sitting up on the bed that was just as big as the one in my room.Mom was unpacking their things, "I've always had a knack for handling things well."My mum chuckled, and my dad smiled, "We all know that's not true.""Have you greeted your brother?" My mom asked as I was about to leave and I shook my head."We're going to see each other at the rehearsal dinner, anyway, so...""Please, make sure you behave yourself."I shrugged,
