Semua Bab Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch: Bab 81 - Bab 90

I went back to sleeping poorly and crying until I fell asleep after finding out that Alexander had been with that unbearable Anna Caroline while he was begging for my forgiveness. I was exhausted, with no energy for anything.The workday had just started, and I was at my desk talking with my boss and Virginia. She was speaking enthusiastically."Boss, your wife will love my brother's bar. You have to take her there.""Looks like your brother's bar might become her favorite spot," Maurice said with a smile.Melissa arrived and stopped between us, seeming to have something urgent to tell us."Sorry, Maurice, but can I talk to these two for a minute?" she asked."Of course, Melissa, go ahead. They're trying to convince me to take my wife to Virginia's brother's bar.""Oh, you really should. You told me your wife loves dancing, right? It's super fun there," Melissa said kindly."Look, boss, just let me know and I'll have my brother reserve an amazing table for you. If it's just the two of

Levy’s POVHaving lunch with the girls was great. They're beautiful, smart, and fun. Messing with those three guys was wonderful. All in all, it was a very enjoyable lunch. But I was really interested in Catherine - she's one unique woman.Ever since I met Catherine at my bar, I was enchanted. My sister already warned me not to get my hopes up because she's very much in love with Miller, who apparently keeps messing things up with her. So, maybe I have a chance.Miller's reaction when I mentioned Catherine's son was visceral, as if I was trying to steal his child. It was really weird because I know Catherine is a single mom and the kid's father disappeared without a trace. And when that jerk started putting pie in her mouth, I wanted to punch him until he was knocked out cold on the floor, but I controlled myself.After lunch, I went back to the office, but I really wanted to see Catherine again. I needed to find ways to run into her more often so I could get closer and make her notice

When we arrived at the karaoke bar, the place was completely packed. Levy gave our names at the door, and a friendly staff member led us to a reserved table near the stage, promptly calling a waiter over.We sat down and ordered our drinks. There was a couple on stage singing Kid Abelha's "Intimate Painting" completely off-key, but everyone in the bar was singing along and encouraging them to continue. It was a very laid-back atmosphere with incredible energy - everyone was laughing, singing, dancing, clapping, whistling, as if they were at the greatest show on earth. The place was beautiful, with dim lighting, and the band was truly sensational.We had barely sat down when Virginia already signed up for a song and started forcing everyone at the table to do the same. When it was my turn, I stalled by saying I was undecided about which song to choose."Oh no, Catherine, don't even start. You're getting up on that stage tonight," she demanded."Okay, Vi, but give me a minute to choose t

When I felt a hand touch me, I already knew whose it was. My whole body tingled at Alexander's touch. Soon after, I heard behind me:"Again, Tess? Now every time I see you girls, you're surrounded by this bunch of guys?" Rick ranted, and we started laughing like crazy."Oh, so you're playing smart, aren't you?" Alexander said, putting his hand on my shoulder. "You did this on purpose!""Nobody invited you here!" Mel replied without even looking at Fred's face."Oh, really? So my dear wife came home and told me exactly where and when she'd be just because she wanted me to know?" Rick huffed."I just saved you the trouble of tracking me again, but I never invited you or your little friends," Tess responded.Levy and his friends seemed to be enjoying the others' discomfort. Then Angel had a great idea."Since we're all here, let's sit down and have a good time. Let's play blackjack, drink, and chat. What do you say, gentlemen?""If you want our company, you better agree, because we're not

"Let the games begin!" Virginia declared.The first round started. Cards were being dealt, and soon Fred busted and was out. Levy also went over, which made Alexander very pleased. At the end of the first round, Angel won with twenty points, and Fred groaned uncomfortably in his chair."Well, Fred, I'm sorry, but I won't waste my opportunity," Angel said, turning to Mel who smiled deviously. "Someone keep time."Angel ran his fingers across Mel's cheek, then moved his hand to the nape of her neck, pulling her in for a tender kiss on her lips."Time's up. Twenty seconds," Patrick Guzman called out hastily.Angel pulled away from Melissa with a charming smile, while she had the most dazed expression on her face. Fred's expression was beyond mere discomfort. Melissa smiled at Angel and then turned to Fred."See, prince, that didn't hurt," Melissa winked at her boyfriend.Everyone couldn't help but laugh. But Alexander whispered in my ear:"There's no way another guy is going to kiss you."
