Semua Bab Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch: Bab 501 - Bab 510

Cam’s POVAfter visiting my sister, I kept thinking about how to get Rita's sample for the DNA test. Flavian had explained the ways to get it, either through a strand of hair or a glass she had used. So I kept wondering how to obtain it.I came to the conclusion that the best approach would be to enter the lion's den. I woke up early and went to Rita's house at the time I knew she would be at church. I never understood why she spent so much time at church when she was such a terrible person. Perhaps she just wanted to maintain her facade of being a good person for the rest of the town."Cam, good morning." The maid received me and found my presence strange. After I left this house, the few times I came back were because of Manu, who thankfully wasn't here anymore."Hi, Cida, is your boss home? I need to talk to her.""She went to church. And young Julian is sleeping.""Of course he is, that good-for-nothing. I'll wait for Rita, I need to speak with her." I said as I walked in and sat d

Lexie’s POVIt had been three days since I sent my resume to Rick, and I hadn't received any response. Maybe it was time to try an employment agency and see if I could find something. Manu was super sweet and let me borrow her car since Flavian had been driving her everywhere due to the drama with her mother, so getting around would be much easier.I printed some resumes, researched a few employment agencies online, got myself ready, and went out to face the battle, as they say. I had a plan and I would make it happen. I would get a job, have my own apartment, and my parents would never force me to do anything I didn't want to do ever again. It couldn't be that hard. But I was wrong.At the first employment agency, I had an interview and took one of those annoying psychological tests, and in the end, they said they would contact me if something matching my profile came up, but it would be difficult. This habit that HR people have of treating us like some profile they define who knows h

Manuela’s POVLexie left Rick's office with a weak smile on her face, and I knew it was because she and Patrick did not get along well."Little Key, let's take Lexie for coffee. I thought this woman would be jumping for joy with the job..." Rick came out laughing behind her."I am happy, Rick, but I'm worried." Lexie remained quiet until we reached the break room, but she really didn't seem like someone who had just landed an excellent job."Well, don't worry. You and Patrick haven't seen each other in a long time, he's changed and become a better person, I guarantee you. And if he's a jerk to you, just tell me and I'll kick his butt." Rick served us coffee and pastries."Rick, how was your trip?" I remembered he went to see Tess at her parents' house to resolve their situation. He didn't want the divorce, but judging by his expression, I guessed he hadn't been successful in convincing his wife."She wouldn't talk to me. She simply hid and had her father send me away." Rick sighed. "It

Manuela’s POVAfter Sabrina's visit to my classroom, I felt unsettled. I was almost certain that Flavian would hide from me that she had sought him out. But then doubt crept in - did she actually seek him out? And just like that! I was being eaten up by doubts. What seemed like a pointless little visit from Sabrina had become a monster in my head. And the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like the clock hands weren't moving at all.When class finally ended, I was practically already standing. I rushed out of the classroom and found PH and Lexie walking down the hallway."Manu, you should have waited for us inside the classroom," PH complained about my not waiting."I know, I know, but I'm tired, I just want to go home," I tried to hide my impatience."Tired? Yeah, you must be tired, you and my brother barely sleep and don't let me sleep either. The walls in that apartment are pretty thin, you know?!" Lexie laughed, making a suggestive comment about my activities with my boyfr

Flavian’s POVI was looking at the calendar. Only one week remained until we would have Manu's DNA test results. I was anxious about it and really hoping that Cam's suspicion would be confirmed - Manu didn't deserve to have that woman as her mother."May I come in, detective?" I looked up and saw Breno standing right at my door. He was the police officer who had been helping me investigate what had happened to Cam's mother on the day she died."Great to see you, Breno! Make yourself at home, my friend." I stood up to greet him. We had known each other for a long time, having worked together when he first joined the police force. "Your visit is quite a surprise.""Well, there's a reason for my visit. I thought it would be better to tell you in person what I've discovered so far about that case you asked me about." Breno sat down across from me."Must be something important to bring you all the way here." Breno nodded, confirming my suspicion."Yes, it is important. Your private investig
