All Chapters of Mr. CEO I can't Be Hidden Anymore : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

(Amaka's POV) It was my 18th birthday. I had just graduated from high school and Joseph Ericson was my boyfriend. He wouldn't let me be, begging me and disturbing me for us to have sex. I had told him that I wanted to wait until after our marriage, but Joseph refused. He claimed that I did not love him enough and that was why I didn't want to sleep with him. I agreed and here I was in a hotel room with him. I was a shy blonde girl, and very fair in complexion, but Joseph was the opposite of my complexion. He was dark in complexion, taller than me and very handsome. He had short black hair and I loved him very much. As Joseph Ericson came from a wealthy family here in Palazzo town where we were living, my parents were average workers and so we were considered not as well off as Joseph's family. Joseph promised to marry me. He was 21 years old and a business student in the university, while I was still preparing to gain admission and to join him there. I had lied to my mother that I

(Amaka's POV) After I finished having my breakfast in the kitchen, I stepped out of the house and made my way outside the compound. The house was a rented apartment and not like Mrs. Ann owned it. Luckily, as I got outside and on the busy road, I saw a yellow bus and got in. I sat beside a tall man who wore a black suit, and he smiled at me. I was too preoccupied to smile back, and after what Joseph had done to me, I limited smiling with any man. It was very painful that Joseph would break up with me. He should have told me that he wanted only sex and not like he wanted to marry me. I was a decent girl in my area, the reason why I became a laughing stock among my peers who hadn't expected a good girl like me to become pregnant. I wiped my tears away and kept my gaze focused on the road. The man who sat beside me spoke, "Hi dear. I have paid your fare." "Huh!" I looked taken aback that a total stranger would help me clear my bill. As I looked at this man's face, I gulped. He's

(Amaka's POV) I continued with the rest of the day working and felt Simon's gaze on me frequently. 'Why was he always looking at me?' I pondered but didn't ask him. My phone rang and I unlocked it and saw that Maureen was the one calling me. She obviously would have taken Jason to school, but I didn't want to chat with her about my son here. Feeling Simon's scrutinizing gaze on me, and also the fact that Joseph was in his office and monitoring me made me uncomfortable. "Hello dear, I will call you back later," I told Maureen and she replied, "Okay." I looked at Simon, and he frowned and looked away. I didn't understand the reason for his frowning but then, I heard the buzzer sound. "It's break time," Simon informed me, and I sighed: "Okay." I turned off my laptop and stood up from my chair. "I think we will be going to the cafeteria, right?" I asked Simon as he rose from his chair. "Yes. Or you can request for your meal here," he said, but I replied: "It's fine. I am still new

Joseph's POV: "Hey sweetheart. I came to your house today after taking my work leave, as we are planning on getting married. I told my father, Senator Patrick Stanley, that I want to come and live with you and to get to know the man that I was going to marry," Nina said. My blood boiled hot as I hadn't expected Nina to show up in my house. "My house?" I asked her again, like I had heard wrong. "Yes, Joseph. Your house. I got the address from your mother. Although, I know that I told you we wouldn't be having sex until we are married. Well, there are many other things that we can do, and that includes cooking for you, accompanying you to your office to get to know more about you, and to know if we are truly compatible to get married. Besides, we are already engaged and none of my family would be complaining. I am not supposed to be explaining all this to you," Nina said, sounding heartbroken in her tiny feminine voice, and I swallowed hard. "Right. I will get home soon. Are you sur

Nina's POV: "Hello, Mom," I said, walking up to the dining table to sit on one of the white chairs there. "Nina, how are you doing tonight? Has Joseph returned home from the office?" Mom asked, and I sighed heavily. "Yes, Mom. Joseph is back, and we are preparing to have our dinner now," I replied. She asked me, "How did he react upon seeing you?" I took a deep breath because I didn't want to reveal to my mother that Joseph hadn't looked happy to see me. Instead, I lied to her. "Mom, Joseph was surprised, but at the same time happy." As I said that, Tope stepped out of the kitchen and looked at me in shock. She had witnessed Joseph's reaction and knew I was lying to my mother, but she didn't say a word. Instead, she walked up to the dining table to serve the dinner silently. "Okay, that's nice. I will call you back tomorrow. I want to have dinner with your father and brother now, and I don't want to keep him waiting. You should be a good girl to Joseph. Is he there with you? Let
