All Chapters of A Mistaken Night With The CEO : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Scene 12 - Nephew's Proposal Miranda wondered what Derrick was up to again. Her heartbeat was not normal, especially knowing he was watching her.'Does he wake up to stare at me again? Oh no!' Miranda bent and resumed sweeping.She expected Derrick to have left the stairs, but he stood there, motionless and watching her sweep.Alex finally walked out of the guest room given to him. Though, Alex had other plans to discuss with Derrick as to his staying for a while in the Luis mansion.Alex wore a white robe too and black trousers paired with black slippers, he was taken aback by the revelation that Juliet had a son. And despite him confronting Juliet about the paternity of her son the previous day, she refused to speak to him.Alex did not know Juliet's family house, and as he hadn't planned on becoming a father soon. His mother had told him that he needed some business training from Derrick, so as to impress his father that he could ruin his father's company well. What Alex hadn't ex

After having breakfast with his mother, Derrick rose from his chair and stepped out. "I have to head to the office, Mother. Take care," Derrick leaned over and pecked his mother on her left cheek.Alex rose from his chair to leave the dining room, and Derrick said, "Alex, you should prepare to go to the company tomorrow. You don't have to worry about your credentials anymore. I will have my assistant fix you into the company."Alex frowned, but just as he wanted to refuse that he needed a week's break, Miranda was through with her breakfast and she walked out to the vast living room again, to keep her used dish in the kitchen.Derrick then remembered his previous statement about terminating Miranda's contract in working with them. But knowing his mother was protecting her, he looked away and exited the mansion.Derrick strode up to his car and got inside. His chauffeur started the car engine and drove off to the Luis group.Due to Alex's visit, Derrick arrived at his company late. It w

"Ha!" Most of the maids gasped, not expecting for Alex to be so shameless and for Juliet to lose her temperament as to deliver a factory-resetting slap to Alex.Alex's black eyes surged with anger as it narrowed at Juliet."How dare you raise your hands to hit me? Have you gone mad?" Alex queried as in the next moment he seized Juliet to the wall, his hand clutching her neck as he questioned her.Juliet hadn't expected for Alex to retaliate. And she coughed, gasping for air to breathe, she cursed him, "You're such an asshole, and I regret ever getting pregnant by you as a result of that night with you. You can never be my son's father or see him. You disgust me."Alex's hand immediately loosened from Juliet's neck, and she slumped to the floor.Some of the maids had gone to report to Lady Loretta about what was happening in the maids' quarter, and the older woman rushed there, just when Alex finally let go of Juliet."What's going on here, Alex? What did you do to her? Get help quickly

Alex looked perplexed as he watched Derrick leave him and climb the flight of stairs.Not wanting to accept Derrick's rejection, Alex quickly chased after Derrick. "Why, uncle? You cannot tell me not to date Miranda. I am not trying to play with her. I sincerely want her. I know she's a maid here, and she told me she lost her mother at a younger age, and also grew up at the orphanage."Derrick frowned as he walked into his sitting room on the top floor. He turned to look at Alex and said, "I don't care if she's a maid here or not. All I am saying is that you have an affair with Juliet, and you should try to settle scores with Juliet first. You shouldn't dare to sleep with Miranda here, and know that my mother particularly treasures that maid. If not, I could have her employment terminated before your recent arrival here."Alex scowled as he heard Derrick say that. Derrick strolled away to his bedroom door, and Alex said, "Uncle, maybe mother wants you to marry the maid. Since you say t

"Derrick!" Lady Loretta scolded her son as she shouted back at him. She was also startled at how he had raised his voice at Miranda."Mom, I am sorry, but why caring about the maid? She woke up late, and yet she's still delaying your breakfast. Don't you see how tardy that she looked. She should be fired and sent away from here," Derrick said, as his deep blue eyes fell on Miranda.Miranda was scared when she met Derrick's cold gaze that looked so deadly, like he wanted to personally discipline her, for daring to have his mother starve again, when she knew that his mother enjoyed her services."I.. I am sorry, sir. I will go and serve your mother's breakfast now," Miranda quickly bolted away from them, and Alex was also silent. Alex didn't think too much about Derrick's reaction, as he knew that Derrick was a very principled person and doesn't tolerate nonsense or laziness."That's okay, Derrick. You shouldn't get annoyed with Miranda. I am not complaining about her being lazy, she's m
