All Chapters of Chasing Poisonous: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

I was always proud of his work and the man he has become. I was happy to see how our business has prospered with his leadership. That's the reason why I wanted him to have my position and become the ultimate boss of our gang.And I was determined to make it happen. Everything was going fine and according to my will until one day when Christopher brought his friend Leo to work with us. I don't know why, but I just couldn't bring myself to like that guy since he stepped foot into my office. Something didn't feel right about him. Christopher told that he was his close friend. They went to the same business school, and he knew him well and now he wanted to work with us. Christopher told that he was very hardworking and it would surely bring great value to our business if we let him work with us. I knew I couldn't argue with Christopher so I had to agree with him eventually and hire his friend, but there was something always suspicious about this guy, Leo. It felt like he is hiding someth

I watch the dinner on the table, getting cold in front of my eyes. I knew this was going to be a stupid idea, yet I went on to do it. I have never really been creative with surprises in my life, but just for a moment, I thought I could do something special for Christopher.Things have really changed after I moved back with Christopher. It feels like we have hardly been able to squeeze any time to talk since the day Christopher got discharged. Most of the time we are out of the house busy with our works and the moments when we are together in the same room, things get pretty intense quickly and we end up having sex. It's weird that after the whole Sophia ordeal we have been expressing more with our bodies rather than our words. We have sex, go to work and then come back again to have sex. It's not like I am complaining about it. Sex with Christopher had always been amazing and intense. But sometimes it feels like we are caught in a loop trying just to compensate for all those days of s

Before we can go in, another voice interrupts us. It's Francis's. "Wait! Who is this and what is he doing with my sister?" He crosses his arms and stands in front of Christopher. I let out a frustrated sigh and narrow my eyes at him, but he doesn't look at me. Francis has always been a total drama queen, and I know it becomes frustrating to deal with him sometimes. I look back at Christopher again with pleading eyes. He still looks pretty cool with everything. I just hope he doesn't think I have a bunch of crazies in my family."That's Nikki's boyfriend." Charlotte rolls her eyes and states standing next to him."What? Nikki's boyfriend? He asks in disbelief and looks at me. "You are not allowed to have a boyfriend without my permission.""Being tall doesn't make you an elder brother here, Francis," Charlotte says in a bored tone and we laugh."Younger or elder, doesn't matter." He scoffs and replies. "Brothers are always there to protect their sisters from falling for bad boys."He t

Christopher It's Sunday morning and I feel not so cheerful to move my ass from this hotel room and go anywhere. But I know I can't back off now after promising Nicole last night that I'll go with her today. I use the toilet and get into the shower, knowing that I should at least look presentable, no matter how miserable I feel from inside. Nicole arrives with a full schedule for the day shortly after I get ready. The vibrant smile on her face gives me an indication of how excited she is to show me around the city. Despite how depressive I have been around her in the last couple of days, she still manages to glow brightly. I know she is doing all this to lift my spirits, and as much as I am sad right now, I still appreciate her efforts. We go to Balboa Park which is the first place on her schedule. It's indeed a huge Park and also very beautiful. When I woke up in the morning, I thought I wouldn't be able to be in my best mental state, but having Nicole by my side now stirs up my moo

ChristopherFor the last two days, we have been wrapped up at Mark's office, planning things and getting my statements written. Mark's attitude has still been cold towards me, but I don't mind because I know he is not doing it on purpose. He is just concerned about his daughter and I know it's natural. I care about Nicole just as much as he does, so I can understand what he is going through.It's Wednesday afternoon as I help Charlotte and Francis in decorating the Christmas tree. I feel more comfortable being around them now. Since I have been spending a lot of time with them in the last two days, I have started to grow fond of them. And I have even realized that apart from getting into silly fights with each other, they are pretty cool kids. It's fun to have them around. But they get overenthusiastic sometimes for no reason, which might drive you crazy. Anyway, I find them still good. Charlotte seems to be sensible compared to Francis. And she even reminds me of Millie. It makes me
