RUBY closed her eyes and gasped as Adam inserted his hardness inside her. She couldn't help but moan loudly from the intense pleasure it brought. Adam groaned in pleasure and leaned in.She was still lying on the conference table with her eyes closed. Adam was settled between her open legs. Adam caressed her cheek. “I’ve missed you so much, Ruby.”Ruby opened her eyes and she was welcomed by the sight of Adam, looking at her softly and…lovingly. It seemed like she made a mistake. Her mind was still cloudy with lust and pleasure, so she might be seeing the wrong things.She smiled at him. “Really? You missed me?”She nodded and began to move with him inside her. Ruby tightly shut her eyes and started moaning. "Ohh, God... Adam." Then he moved inside her again, this time at a slow pace.Ruby's body rose in pleasure from Adam's touch. She didn't know where else to hold on as he gradually increased the pace of his movements inside her."Adam... Adam... Ohh... Ahh..." Ruby moaned cont
SHE refrained from speaking right away and simply gazed at him before eventually speaking again.""I lied to you, Ruby."Her forehead knotted. "What the hell are you talking about?""I lied when I say that screwing Amethyst is better than fucking you..." He let out a deep breath before he continued to speak. "I like you more than Amethyst. I really do. And what happened in the conference room proves it."She burst out laughing. "It doesn't matter. Your apology doesn't mean anything to me. No amount of apologies can alter the words you have spoken. Once said, they remain unchanged and cannot be retracted no matter how many times you seek forgiveness.""Ruby, please...let me explain.""What else do you need to explain?" she stepped away. "I know that Amethyst is better than me, and you don't need to rub that in. I know my place in your life. I'm just your secretary, and she's a model. I understand that I'm not the type of woman you'll take seriously. I'm just someone you'll play with. S
ADAM took heavy steps as he entered the elevator. Until now, he still couldn't believe Ruby's words from yesterday. He hoped she would reciprocate his love, thinking she might also love him, but that was contrary to what happened. He wanted to prove to Ruby that his love for her was genuine. However, he didn't know how or where to start.The elevator suddenly chimed, indicating he had reached the 13th floor. As he entered the office, his eyes immediately met Ruby's. She looked away at first, so he quietly walked towards his swivel chair."You want coffee, sir?" she asked formally, and now she’s already standing in front of his desk.He was taken aback by her way of asking. It felt cold and overly formal. "Yes," he replied promptly.As Adam pondered his thoughts in the elevator earlier, he quickly found a solution. Yes, he needed to treat Ruby the way he did when he used to punish her. A punishment mixed with love. This way, they wouldn't need to avoid each other in the office. He had
WHEN they both returned to the office, Ruby immediately confronted her boss."“Why did you do that?”His forehead knotted. “Which one?” there was a hint of sarcasm in his voice."Why did you wrap your arm in mine while we’re in front of Mr. Jackson? Then, why did you call me babe in front of him?"Adam chuckled. Then his expression suddenly turned serious. "I'm just protecting you.""Protecting me? For what? Mr. Jackson was the only one there. He's a shareholder of the company and-""I don't trust him.""Really? But why did you ask me to have a meeting with him when you don't even trust that man? And what's it to you if I get into trouble? You're not my boyfriend. I'm just your secretary.""Yes, you're my secretary, that's why I'm protecting you. I don't want to look for a new secretary again. It's embarrassing if I keep changing secretaries; investors might think I'm a bad person."She bit her lower lip after hearing his words. She didn't immediately respond. She didn't want
THE next day, Ruby is getting impatient waiting for Adam. It's almost ten in the morning, and there are documents he needs to sign before lunchtime."Where is he? He's never been this late before." He didn't even call her, so she had no idea where he was.Ruby couldn't wait any longer, so she took her cellphone and called him. But his number was unattended."Maybe he's just at Whitlock Corporation." She tried to convince herself.She tried calling Adam's father's new secretary. Luckily, she answered right away. "Hello, this is Whitlock Corporation. How may I help you?""Maureen, this is Ruby. Sorry to disturb you, but I just want to ask you if Sir Adam went there? I can't reach him. I need him here at ALV because there are documents he needs to sign before lunchtime.""I'm sorry, Ruby... Adam hasn't been coming here since Mr. and Mrs. Whitlock returned to the Philippines," Maureen responds sympathetically.“I see. Thank you, Maureen.”She didn't wait for the other line to respond.Rub
RUBY seemed to be in a daze, her feet leading her to the parking lot where she frantically looked for the company car. However, she froze in her tracks upon realizing the car was nowhere to be seen."Where is my car? Did Adam have it fixed?"Despite being anxious, she walked out of the ALV compound again and hailed a taxi to Adam's condo.After over an hour, she finally arrived at Adam's condo. She quickly entered the passcode provided by Adam's mother, and the door suddenly opened.Finding no one in the living room, she hesitantly walked around, searching for Adam's room.She heard a noise coming from a room on the right, so she followed it. Upon reaching the door, she noticed it was Adam's room. The door was slightly open, so she didn't bother knocking.She wanted to surprise them if they were doing something horrible, so she could catch them in the act.She might be losing her mind thinking about these things. Perhaps her trust issues with the man were escalating, especially now th
"ADAM!" she exclaimed involuntarily. In her extreme fear earlier, she did not expect to suddenly be embraced by him. Without hesitation, she hugged him back, crying like a child on his chest."I thought I was going to die tonight," she said in between her sobs."Hush now," he said while patting her back. "Why did you leave? Did I allow you to leave? It's getting late, and you know it's dangerous walking on the road at this hour, especially now that you don't have a car," he added, sounding like a father scolding his child.She remained silent, continuing to cry."C'mon, I'll drive you home. Get in my car."Only then did she gather the courage to speak and asked him. "Wait! Why are you here again? You should be in your room, lying down and resting," she said, gently wiping away the tears that fell on her cheeks with her fingers."Tss, it's just a fever, Ruby. I'm not seriously ill, so I can drive you back to your apartment."With that, she just nodded at him. She got into his car and s
UPON waking up the following day, Ruby finds Adam still beside her, his hand encircling her waist as he remains sleeping peacefully. She slowly removed his hand, but to her surprise, Adam tightened his embrace."Good morning," he softly greets with his eyes still closed."Adam, I need to get up. I need to go to the office.""Come on, I'm your boss. So, I'll decide if you're going to work or not," he insisted. "Adam, I don't want other employees to talk about us. They might wonder why we're both absent," she exclaimed.Instead of acknowledging what she said, he embraced her again, burying his face in her chest like a child. "You still haven't answered my last question from last night. You fell asleep without giving me an answer.""Huh? W-what question?" she feigned ignorance. Suddenly, he looked up. "Ruby, I know you know what I'm referring to.""Adam, let me go, I need to take a bath. I need to go to the office. And you…you should go back to your condo and rest."He chuckled. "I'm
