A Mistaken Night With The CEO 49| Interrogating the maids
After Gabriel left Derrick's office, Derrick sank back into his chair, thinking about his night escapades with Miranda."Oh, no. I was too hard on her," he thought, sighing.As he was about to close up and leave his office, Derrick heard a knock on the door and replied, "Come in."Alexa Godwin, wearing a black suit, nervously walked into Derrick's office. She had noticed that he arrived late and thought it was right to find out why."Good evening, Derrick," Alexa said, standing nervously across from him."Yes, what do you want?" Derrick asked, rubbing his jaw as he relaxed back in his office seat, looking at Alexa."Derrick, I didn't come here about work-related matters, but to check if you're alright," Alexa said, and Derrick sighed. Seeing Alexa, he felt guilty and couldn't explain his problem."I'm fine. It's just that I was stressed and woke up late this morning, but it's fine," Derrick said, offering a fake smile to Alexa that didn't reach his eyes."Okay. How about your mother?"
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 50| New life
Miranda left the city and went to the nearby town where she had bought land five years ago. She rented an apartment there, and although she was in disrepair, she met with Agent Paul and briefed him on all she had been through and why she was no longer working as a maid in the city center.Agent Paul felt pity for Miranda and helped her find an affordable apartment where she now lived alone.Miranda was living on the lower floor of a one-story building. The neighbors in the building were curious about her life and why she chose to live alone, but Miranda didn't care to explain any of that to them. With Agent Paul's influence, the landlord gave Miranda a self-contained apartment. Though small, it was comfortable, with a private parlor that served as her sitting room and a bedroom of her own.Waking up early in the room to the start of a brand new day, Miranda remembered how Master Derrick had taken advantage of her—how he drunkenly confessed his feelings, made love to her, and had sex wi
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 51| Unexpected news
Miranda held the door of her bathroom to support herself as she felt weak and her head was spinning. She stepped out of her bathroom and went to sit on her bed to rest for a while. A few hours later, when her body had calmed down, Miranda stood up, then she went into her bathroom to prepare a hot bath. She bathed quickly and finally stepped out to visit the hospital.Miranda stood in front of her room mirror, drying her wet body, and she dressed up in a blue gown and black shoes. She examined her dull reflection in the mirror once more, before she left her apartment, walking out of the building. She saw a neighbor of hers, and she greeted the middle-aged woman as she stared downward, approaching the gate. Miranda then exited the compound.Miranda noticed there was a nearby hospital, and she thought against visiting the pharmacy store closer to her house. With a leisurely stride, Miranda trekked ahead to the hospital.When she arrived at the clinic, she registered her name with the nur

At the Luis Mansion, Lady Loretta ensured to avoid Derrick the most as it had been three months since Miranda left and Derrick hadn't seen Miranda.Lady Loretta was devastated with the events of the night that Miranda left them. She had gone to search the younger woman's room and there she saw that Miranda didn't take her phone.Lady Loretta had thought Miranda blocked her phone number from contacting her, but after she had spoken to Juliet and Juliet let her know that she saw some stains on Derrick's bedsheets.Lady Loretta went to check the security footage and there she saw how Derrick had lured the younger woman into his bedroom, even kissing Miranda on her lips and telling her that he couldn't resist her."Why would Derrick do this? I love Miranda as a child and yet Derrick didn't only send Miranda away, he also slept with her too."Lady Loretta had complained to two of her daughters, after Nicole and Evelyn came to visit her.Nicole gasped, "Mom, you mean brother actually did sl
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 53| Sister's advise
Derrick stood up from the stool he was seated beside the bar in his sitting room. He was having a glass cup of wine and dropped it to check on who was there.Approaching the door, Derrick pulled it open and saw his immediate elder sister, Nicole standing there with her baby in her arms."Can I come in?" Nicole asked with a smile curved up her lips."Yes, come in," Derrick replied, moving away from the door as he went back to sit drinking.Nicole knew her brother was going through a hard time. He had never taken a liking for any of the maids before. She would soon be going home, so she came to see Derrick first.Derrick sat on the stool, his back facing his sister as he resumed drinking."I'm already going home, and I just came to tell you goodbye," Nicole said, and Derrick remained quiet.Derrick had thought that his elder sister came to scold him, but the reverse was the case."It's alright. Drive safely home," Derrick replied. He didn't turn to stare back at his sister as he continu
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 54| Nephew's help
Derrick moved away to the dining table, away from his mother, as he didn't say a word to her. Also, he sat at a far end of the dining table, sitting on the chair three seats away from Lady Loretta and Alex."Mama, what did Uncle do to you? You should forgive him," Alex said, innocently, and Lady Loretta smiled."Derrick didn't do anything wrong to me directly. But you remember Miranda, right?" Lady Loretta asked, just as the rest of the maids stepped out from the kitchen to serve them breakfast."Yes, I know the pretty maid, Mama. I wanted to marry her, but Master Derrick warned me to keep my distance away from her," Alex said, thoughtfully, and Lady Loretta sighed once more."Hmm, Derrick shamelessly slept with her and sent her away.""What!!" Alex's hold on his spoon tightened."Uncle did what? My goodness!' Alex gasped, and he met Derrick's gaze, who frowned and looked away from them. Derrick had warned Alex not to show up at his house, yet Alex disobeyed him, and he knew, that was
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 55| Remembering the past
As Derrick snatched Alex's phone away, Alex frowned and looked at Derrick angrily, who didn't even wait for him to type what he wanted to type.Alex wanted to write, "I have missed you," but Derrick quickly snatched the phone and stared at Miranda's page. Derrick saw that it was truly Miranda's page, as her profile had an old graduation picture of her.Seeing her pretty face again, even as it was a throwback picture, the picture seems to bring back the memories of the first day he saw her.Derrick remembered how nervous Miranda looked when she saw him arrive home then. He had just lost his father and been given the position as the new CEO of the Luis Corporation. He wasn't happy about how his father had died, after everything they did to save his father's life. His father still suffered from heart failure and passed on.Derrick didn't want his mother to suffer the same fate, as he didn't know what had caused his father such heart attack. He admired Miranda from the first day he laid h
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 56| Miranda's response
Miranda's heart raced to her lungs, and she wondered, "What does Master Derrick want from me?" She clicked the message and read it, and he asked her, "Hi, can you please come back home? My mother misses you, and she really wants to see you again?"Miranda stared at the chat as she wondered how Derrick got her chat name. She blinked her teardrops away, wondering if she could tell him that she was expecting his baby.Miranda shook her head and decided not to tell him."No, I cannot tell Master Derrick that I'm pregnant. I know Mother would be worried, and not like him. As he wouldn't want to see me by himself. What should I do now?" Miranda wondered as she saw Derrick typing again."I know, I asked you to leave, but you can come home now. My mother really wants to see you again? Where are you? I will send my driver to come pick you up?" Derrick texted, and Miranda's brows furrowed as she read his message."Wow! He didn't even apologize to me for sending me away, he didn't apologize for
