Semua Bab Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Alexander's POVI sat on my living room couch feeling a searing pain in my chest, hearing my heartbeat pounding in my ears, struggling to breathe, and my eyes burning with endless tears. Id only felt this way once before - when my parents died. An irreparable, deeply painful loss that makes your heart feel like its stopping. I was dying without her.Alexander, bro, that wretched woman and her father are waiting for you in the building lobby. I know you're devastated, but they won't leave, Patrick said, and I looked at him as if coming out of a trance.Patrick, she broke up with me. Said there's no way now. That she won't take me away from my son and that she's going back to work with Henry, I said desperately.Easy, Alex. We've already solved one thing - she's not leaving the company. I looked at Patrick, not understanding what he meant. She'll be reporting to me, and Rick will report to you, starting Monday. It's not what you want, but it's the best way to keep her close. It was Rick'

"Catherine, I want to talk to you.""You've got some nerve, you tramp, coming here to harass my friend," Samantha immediately said to Anna."Catherine, if it wasn't important, I wouldn't have come after you, but please, just hear me out," Anna spoke as if she were crying and making a clear effort to be at least pleasant."No way. Get out of here and leave Cat alone," Samantha was irritated, and it was dangerous for her to jump at Anna's throat."Sam, let it go, I'll hear what she has to say. I don't want her stalking me around. It's better to listen at once and get rid of this pest," I said to Samantha.Anna wasted no time, pulled out the chair next to me, and sat down."Look, Catherine, I'm going to talk to you from one mother to another," she began and placed her hand on her chest. "You know it's hard to raise a child alone, and I know you're raising yours because you don't even know who his father is." I was already starting to regret listening to that pest. This could only have bee

The days have been dragging on, I've buried myself in work and all my free time was spent with my son and my friends. I was sleeping poorly, had dark circles that were already black under my eyes.When I arrived at my office to work, there was a new arrangement of tulips on the small table and a card with Alexander's handwriting that said:"I would die for you and I'm going crazy without you. I would do anything to keep you from suffering."I looked to the side and on the other small table there was another flower arrangement also with a card. But it was a strange arrangement, almost half morbid, with flowers that I always saw at funerals. I found it strange and felt a chill, that didn't seem to be Alexander's doing. I took the card and opened it, inside there was a typed message:"You should go back to the sewer you came from. Alexander and Anna are getting married in thirty days and will be very happy with the child she is expecting. He just used you."I couldn't hold back a sob and

I woke up in the dimness. There was a faint light coming from a lamp across the room. Looking around, I recognized Patrick's office. Through the window, I could see it was already dark outside, but I couldn't understand what had happened. The last thing I remembered was sitting at my work computer, feeling an almost uncontrollable drowsiness, but that was still in the morning.I shifted and felt a warm hand on my ankle that made it tingle. I recognized that touch before seeing him. I realized my feet were resting on his leg. I rubbed my eyes, trying to adjust to the low lighting, and looked at him as he was gently running his hands over my feet."You're awake, my angel. How are you feeling?" Alexander asked in a husky voice."Kind of strange. What time is it? I don't remember coming to lie down here," I said, feeling quite confused."It's eleven at night. Margaret made you some tea to calm you down, and she went all out, said you needed rest." He gave a lazy smile. "I went into your of

Levy was wearing charcoal gray dress pants with a matching vest. He had no jacket, just the vest over a white dress shirt with rolled-up sleeves and the top three buttons undone, no tie. His clothes were clearly tailored and fit his body perfectly, making it possible to see his muscles outlined beneath the fabric. He wore sunglasses, and his short copper-colored hair was impeccably styled. His beard was neatly trimmed but kept very short, as if he hadn't shaved for two or three days. Unlike his sister, he had no freckles. He was truly a handsome man."My goodness! You took my breath away!" Levy said, stopping in front of me. "How is it possible that you're even more beautiful than the last time I saw you, Catherine?""Oh, Levy, you're too kind."He gave me a kiss on the cheek and opened the car door for me, offering his hand to help me in. I sat down, fastened my seatbelt, and watched that handsome man walk around the car with elegance and sit beside me, turning to me with a dazzling s
