All Chapters of Chasing the deck of her: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I gazed at Steven.Steven advanced and came forward to open the door."Ms. Denz!"Michael Gordon, the vice president of the hotel, who committed the mistake yesterday, rushed in. He was in such a rush that even Steven could not hold him back.I frowned and observed how Michael rushed towards my table."Mr. Gordon, why do you still linger here? I accepted your resignation so you may go seek a job elsewhere.""Ms. Denz, you can't do this to me! I have worked for this hotel for almost 20 years! I worked so hard for the hotel that I had many illnesses due to overwork. Even your father would not fire me. How could you just fire me like this?!" Michael was sweating profusely while he yelled at me."I've studied the medical history of all the bigwigs of this hotel. Your condition includes fatty liver and gallbladder polyps. You have to be an awfully hungry person." I snarled.Michael caught the sarcasm in my voice and shook in terror. "Honestly, I didn't know that Alia Furniture has been pro

Kalus brought Lydia into his office under everyone's eyes.The moment the door closed, Lydia started crying and hugged Kalus's waist tightly."Kalus, I'm so glad you came to fetch me. I was so frightened just now…"Kalus's eyes became dark. He raised his hands and placed them on Lydia's shoulders, gradually pushing her away."Kalus…" Lydia appeared puzzled.Why did you do that?" Kalus's voice was cold, his eyes intimidating."Do what?""Why did you go to Savrow Daily to announce our wedding news?"Lydia breathed a silent sigh of relief and hugged him again. "Because I cannot wait to marry you. Do you not want to marry me?I want to, but making the news public like this is not fair." Kalus's expression was firm. He was no longer as gentle-tongued as he used to be."Why isn't it fair? You and Amara are already divorced!""We're not yet through with the divorce, and we promised that we wouldn't finish it until Grandpa's 80th birthday.".Kalus instinctively pulled back from Lydia. "Previo

"Who sits next to that babe? Hold up. Ain't that Frank Denz, CEO of Zz Group out of Hatchbay?"Ryan cocked his eyebrows and raised a sarcastic eyebrow. "I thought Frank was some hermit who's never stepped inside a club in his life. Haha! Has he finally sinned?"Both Kalus and Ryan mistaken Dean as Frank.That was because Dera's brothers were actually quadruplets. Among them, Frank and Dean were identical, so people who were unfamiliar with them could not tell them apart.""Damn! I'm so jealous. That hottie should be my girl. It's a waste for her to be with Frank!" Ryan became more enthusiastic as he spoke.Downstairs, I was smiling sweetly at Dean.Kalus just felt annoyed.Back then, that smile belonged to him alone.What made it worse was that apparently, the smear online said nothing to her. She was still in the mood to have fun.Whereas Kalus had been worried all day. He was either busy cleaning up the mess or thinking of how he should explain it to her."I should shag her this eve

I was drunk and thought the man next to me was my brother, so I cried. "Why does Kalus not like me? Why…"Kalus's heart constricted as he clamped his lips shut and listened to my grievances."I did all that I could do… I tried so hard… But it appears that the harder I work, the more he hates me. Why? Tell me why?"I turned my back on Kalus and clasped the man tightly. I buried my head in his chest and wept loudly. Tears and makeup defiled his new, clean white shirt.Kalus was as stiff as wood on the pavement. His voice caught in his throat, and he felt the warmth of every drop of her tears seep through his breast and drench his heart.Some time went by before he spoke softly to her, asking, "You really like Kalus?"I raised my face, red and puffy from crying. My scarlet lips opened slightly.The Adam's apple of Kalus bobbed up and down as he fought against kissing me.He even wished that he had not asked this question yet.It did not matter to me whether I still liked him or not.Our

I vomited again and woke up the next day."Dera, I remember you being able to handle your drinks. How did you get so drunk last night?" Dean immediately handed me a glass of water to gargle with and got some hangover medicine."I've not touched a drop of alcohol for the past three years… So naturally, I'd be drunk after downing so much in one go last night."I was aware that Kalus did not like women with the scent of alcohol on them, so I stopped drinking during the three years that I was married to him."I know you're drunk, but those who are sober will think that you have morning sickness." Dean teased."Ha… If I were really pregnant with Kalus's child, what would you guys do?" I had a hint of sadness in my eyes."What else can we do? We'll help you raise the kid, of course! No matter what, that kid is innocent."Although Dean hated Kalus with his whole heart, he was a just person. This was probably his professional morality as a prosecutor."Don't worry. I am not going to have his
