Mr. CEO and His Secretary のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

MaxwellMy head was pounding when I woke up that morning, my lips chapped and my throat dry from constant alcohol and I stood up to get a glass of water.I was to resume work today and I thought of seeing Raya again.Ryan's words popped into my mind."You like her.""Deny it all you want"Of course, I was going to deny it because I never thought I would have feelings for another woman. Diane had occupied a lot of my mind and I hadn't even noticed the slipping in of my secretary.I ran a hand through my hair and went back to my room where I hopped into the shower and I prepared for work.No coffee or breakfast, the way Raya was always feeding me, but hopefully, we could sort things out after today.I couldn't bear seeing her angry with me and i didn't want to lose my connection with Kyle either.I got into my car after another glass of water went down my throat and I made a mental note to take her signature coffee once I got to the office, only she wasn't the one I saw when I got to th

RayaThe sun was shining through my windows the next morning, my body heavy, and I realized that my hand was tied down to something when I got myself completely."Uhn?" I questioned, opening my eyes to see what it was, only to find a head of hair where my hand was supposed to be.It was actually there but under the brown-haired head. I shifted only for the person to shift too, and I gasped at the face that turned to face mine, still closed.Mr. Sterling?He had stayed behind.Of course, I remembered the reason why he had been there in the first place, maybe not why he had come to my apartment, but the fact that he had helped me up when William had left me shattered.I managed to get my hand off his hand under his head and I stared at him for a while before touching the hair on his face. It was ruffled and falling into his eyes and he groaned, making me flinch away when he shifted on the bed.F*ck, what was I doing?Just yesterday, my nightmare had come knocking and here I was touchin

Raya"I-isabella" I stuttered in the corner of the grocery store where we were, alone. It seemed like she had arranged for it to be so, because a man stood at the front of the shop preventing anyone from entering.Even the open sign now showed closed, the employees standing in a corner.F*ck."Raya..."Does she remember me now?"Uhm... How can I help you? I no longer work for Mr. Sterling and...""You can drop the pretense. I know you're the mistress of my husband and have a child for him""What? Mistress?" She nodded, quite calm.Was that why she had come to meet me?"You must be mistaken, I...""Didn't he come to see you some nights ago?""Yes he did but...""And dated you years ago?"F*ck, just how much did she know?"And if you think I've forgotten who you are? I haven't, Raya Johnson."Uhn, what did she mean by that?"I was confused at first about why you looked familiar, but it later dawned on me. Tacky nerd in high school and top student of our class."F*ck! She did remember m

MaxwellI walked into the bar about an hour later, the call still ongoing in my hand as I walked past the bouncers at the entrance, and right there, by the counter, was my secretary, drunk and passed out, or so I thought until I got closer to her.She raised her head and suddenly started crying again when she saw me. "uhn? What is wrong?" I asked as I hurried over to a stool beside her, and she didn't answer as she continued sobbing.I turned to the bartender in an attempt to find a reason for all this, and he shrugged. "She has been crying like that for over an hour, mentioning something about how a person dared to do something or something like that." I thought about it.Who could it be?William?Nobody answered that question as my secretary chose that time to pass out, and I paid the bill before carrying her out to my car.There, I secured her into the passenger seat, placing her head carefully against the leather surface, and I tucked a strand of stray hair behind her ear before

Raya"Are you okay?" Kendall asked the minute she saw me in the hallway, and I nodded, letting Kyle inside her apartment before I followed after him."I thought you were going to...""Stay with my boss?"She nodded after a while and said, "You shouldn't have. Now Kyle has hopes of him being his dad.""What? Why would he have that?""Because he asked him to be his dad. Like, who does that?"She covered her mouth momentarily and said, "That's crazy.""I know right." Kyle had gone into the room to play with Michael and Leah, so I could rant about his behavior properly without making him feel even worse. He was already going through it as it is.I ran a hand through my hair."What of... Mr. Sterling?" Kendall asked,"He has gone back. I don't know; he's being so nice and talking about how he likes me, and I...""What?"Right, I hadn't told her that part yet. Well, maybe because it just happened."He told you he liked you.""Yes, but it's obviously not real. He just wants to get into my p
