BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Nineteen
ALYSSA’S POV. I stepped down from the cab and saw a familiar figure sitting on the ground crying. I walked towards the figure and squat down. “Hey, are you okay?” I asked as I touched her shoulder. She raised her head up, and I could see trails of tears on her face. “What’s wrong?” I asked again, and she sniffed. “I’ve s…something to tell you, Alyssa.” She said and sniffed again. “Go on.” I urged. She cleaned her face before looking at me. “It’s about Frank.” I paused and listened to what she was saying. I was angry, shocked, and happy. I didn’t know Frank could do such a thing to a young innocent girl. “Don’t worry, I will talk to him, although we’re not on good terms, but I’ll make sure to talk some sense into him, okay.” She nodded and wiped her tears. “Don’t cry again.” I stood up and picked her with me. “You need to go inside and rest, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” I hugged her and watched as she entered their apartment. What on earth is wrong with Fra
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty
ALYSSA’S POV. The blaring sound of my annoying alarm woke me up from my peaceful sleep. My dreams felt so real, it was about a certain someone I have a huge crush on, and I dreamt about him kissing me like his life depended on it. Fuck you alarm. I did my usual morning routine then went to the living room, I met Mum sitting on the couch going through some ROM com. She loves watching k-dramas, and I’m also a huge fan of them, before I started working, we always had a night of movie marathon. Watching different k-dramas in one night. “Good morning, mum.” I hugged her from her back. “Hi honey, how was your night?” “It was fine, mum.” I looked around the living room but couldn’t find Frank, “Mum, where’s Frank?” “He went out early, didn’t know where he was going, and he didn’t bother telling me.” She shrugged. She may act nonchalant and all that, but I know she’s worried sick, that was the perk of being a mother. “Mum are you okay.” “Yeah, I’m good now go get some breakfast bef
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty One
ALYSSA’S POV. After taking a nice hot bath to relieve all my stressed muscles, I went back to the living room. “Hey Aly, come eat dinner.” I heard Mum’s say. “Thanks, mum.” I pecked her cheek and saw Maria still seating on the couch, “Maria, come on.” She shook her head. “Oh, I’m filled up already. Mum fed me.” She said with a blush, while I smiled. “Okay.” I sat down as mum placed my food on the table, I munched on it hungrily. “Mum, remember I’m going to the party tomorrow.” She hummed and asked, “what time are you leaving?” “At 10:00pm.” Wait for it, Aly. “What! Ten that’s so late, are you going for clubbing.” She flared up, and I groaned. “Mum, I’m not going to any club, it’s just a party, a company party and like I told you before, I must be there since I’m the boss’s secretary.” I continue munching on my food. “I know, but ten is too late.” She signed and said, “do you have anything suitable to wear?” “No mum, but I’m go
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty Two
XAVIER’S POV. I took my cuff links and wore them under the squinting gaze of Chelsea. “Where are you going, Daddy?” Chelsea asked for the umpteenth time and I sighed. “I’ve told you before baby, I’m going to a business dinner party, and I’ll be home late. So go to bed and don’t wait for me.” I said as a matter of fact and she nods. I remembered how she waited for me when I attended one late dinner party, she refused to go to bed and waited even though it was midnight, she still didn’t sleep. After fixing my red tie, I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled. Still handsome as ever. “Daddy looks handsome.” My little angel complimented, and I smiled. “Thank you baby.” I kissed her cheek. “I have to go, baby.” I picked her up and dropped her in her room. “Bye.” She kissed my both cheeks. I entered my black Ferrari and drove off to Alyssa’s house according to the address written on her employment contract. I parked the car as I got there and gestured for Chris
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty Three
XAVIER’S POV. I glared at their backs as they took the road to the backstage. I was still standing, baffled at MK's utterance and also Alyssa’s. I can’t believe she dare go against me, even when I insisted on her not doing it. She better get ready to receive her punishment for defiling me when she comes back, but to think about it, this is actually the first time my secretary is talking back at me and making her own decisions. Impressive. I took a sip from my wine and watched as some businessmen tried to come my way, but my stare discouraged them. I don’t want any connection or contracts with those people, people who lie and cheat their partner for better gain or profit. “Can I have your attention please?” A feminine voice called out and my eyes darted to the stage. She was a red haired lady, looked beautifully clad in a red glaring straight gown that matched the color of her hair. She looked immaculately beautiful, like someone who just ditched me for some model job, I shook
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty Four
ALYSSA’S POV. I still couldn’t believe the face I saw in the mirror after the quick makeover, James is very talented, and he knows what to do with my face. I can’t believe I did it, yeah, I walked like a model out there without falling or tripping on my gown. I was elated, MK was so grateful that he hugged and kissed my cheeks for the umpteenth time. “Wow! Girls, you killed it.” MK praised looking at his extraordinary model. “We’re glad you like it, MK.” One said. “Like it, I love it. You all did great, and I must add a bonus to your pay.” They squealed and thanked him. He walked to my table and took my hand, “Alyssa, you’re a lifesaver. I don’t know what I would’ve done without you, thank you.” I blushed. “Don’t worry about it, I’m glad I could help.” “Aly.” Josephine yelled, running towards and as she got closer, she raised me up and engulfed me in a tight hug. “Thanks Aly and you did great by the way.” “Thanks Josephine.” We pulled from the hug. “Are you busy to
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Twenty Five
XAVIER’S POV. I frowned as she gasped with a guilty look. How could she forget about Chelsea, I know what I passed through when she didn’t see her this morning or yesterday. Chelsea cried throughout the whole night and this morning, thinking her Nanny left her like her mother did. I haven’t seen my daughter cry over anything before, not even me, but she cried because she didn’t see Alyssa. I glared at her and said. “I will take your silence as a no.” I was upset, Chelsea refused to take her breakfast because she didn’t see her Nanny, but after coaxing and petting her she reluctantly ate her breakfast but refused to take her bath. She was waiting for her Nanny. The same Nanny who didn’t care to check up on her, I know we went to a party and came back late but couldn’t she call and talk to her. “I…I’m so sorry, sir, I …. I totally forgot, but I will go pick her from school.” I arched my brows, school, on a Saturday. What’s wrong with her today? “Miss Brown, do you realize i

TWO WEEKS LATER. BENJAMIN’S POV. “Hey man.” I slumped tiredly on the chair as he glared at me. Gosh! I was damn tired from those strenuous activities last night, winks, you know what I mean. “And What are you doing here Ben, aren’t you supposed to be at your company, working?” He asked, and I frowned. “Is hat how you welcome a friend you haven’t seen in, what, a week or weeks?” He rolled his eyes and looked at me unenthusiastic. “I’ll ask again, what are you doing here, Ben?” “I came to see you, Xavi.” I smirked as his dimmed. “Call me that one more time and I swear you’ll be leaving here toothless.” He snapped. I still don’t know why he hates the nickname. I cleaned my throat and abandoned that topic because I would rather not leave here toothless and asked. “So what’s up?” I picked a file I knew nothing about and went through it. “Nothing.” He replied monotonously. “Oh, please don’t tell me nothing is up. You can’t tell me the almighty Xavier Winthrop hasn’t found

A Week Later. “Come on, Mrs. Winthrop, you can do it. I can see the head, you just have to push.” The doctor said trying to encourage me, but that’s what she has been saying for the past forty minutes. Gosh, this is so painful, I ain’t doing this again. I breath out loudly then took in a deep breath as I held Xavier’s hand tightly, pushing harder as I felt the head coming out, and suddenly, I felt free from the pain and the shrill cry of the baby was heard in the room. “The first one is out, it’s a boy.” The doctor announced and Xavier kissed my cheeks. “Two more to go, babe.” I nodded as I pushed again, but this time it didn’t take long before they came out. “Congrats, Mr. Winthrop.” I said weakly as I stared at a crying Xavier. “Thank you, darling.” He pecked the crown of my head, wiping my sweat off. I closed my eyes, turning the noise and everything down. ~~~~ XAVIER. I never thought I would ever witness this, the birth of my babies. It didn’t sit well with me to see
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Fifty Four
FOUR MONTHS LATER. ❤️❤️ ALYSSA ❤️❤️ I stared at myself as I rubbed the lipstick on my lips and couldn’t help but smile. I can’t believe this is me in the mirror, I look more beautiful and happy, and I love it. “Mummy!” I turned, and I saw my beautiful angel running towards me. She was putting on the same gown as me but with a different design, she looked so beautiful. “Hey baby, how are you?” I asked pecking her cheeks and she giggled doing the same to same and my huge tummy. Trust me, this tummy is so big that sometimes I fear it would burst. “How are my baby’s sisters doing?” Chelsea asked and I chuckled. She wanted them to be girls, and I just pray she gets her wish. “They are Fine.” I replied, and she smiled rubbing her hand on it. It has been great during these past four months, Lisa was so happy when she heard I was pregnant, although she scolded and smacked Xavier for hurting me. I remembered the first day I told Chelsea I was carrying her baby sister or b

❤️ ALYSSA ❤️ “I have my reasons, Alyssa.” He paused and took a deep breath. “I have my reasons for rejecting you.” I stared at him in anticipation. “Take a seat.” He tapped the space beside him and I sat down, waiting for his explanation. “There’s a reason why I don’t have any woman in my life now and before. Do you know before you came into my life, a lot of women has shown interest in me and even mum introduced some ladies to me, but I didn’t have it in me to take one in, not when they were going to leave me anyway. I remember the first day you walked into my office, looking like an angel and trust me, you got my attention without trying, I haven’t looked at any woman the way I stared at you. They were the same way I stared at my Charlotte.” I gasped. His Charlotte, Who was that? “Charlotte was my first love, my life, and everything, she was my late wife and Chelsea’s mum. You see, Alyssa, when she came into my life, I thought everything would work out for me, us, wel

❤️ ALYSSA ❤️ I opened my eyes and found myself in an unfamiliar room and similarly to when Timothy abducted me, the thing I was in was moving. I gulped and got up slowly, where am I now? I tried recollecting all that happened, and then I remembered, Xavier, he came to save me. I thought he wouldn’t care or leave me to rot in there, but he saved me, maybe he did it to save his child and not me. I chuckled bitterly at my pathetic self, even after rejecting for twice I’m still rooting for him to love me, pathetic. “You are awake.” I turned to the doorway and saw him, the intruder on my mind. He was clad in a sweat shirt and pants, and he looked deliciously handsome that all I wanted to do was rip the shirt off and jumped on his bone. I blushed and smacked myself. “Are you okay?” I suddenly felt his presence next to me. “I’m fine, thanks for saving me, Mr. Xavier.” I said. I was grateful he took me out of that hellhole, I didn’t know what Timothy would have done to me if he d

❤️ ALYSSA ❤️ I continued moving backwards as he walked slowly to my side and I gasped when I got to the wall. He snickered and said. “Nowhere to run too now, huh.” I looked at the door behind him and made a move to run for it, but he grabbed my hand like he was expecting that. “Let go of me, Timothy.” I commanded, trying to take his hard grip off. “You are hurting me, Timothy.” I cried in pain and, like a person under a spell, he snapped out of it l. He released my hand, which was already red from his tight grip. “I’m sorry Aly.” He apologized and picked my bruised hand up, but I took it away quickly. “Don’t touch me.” I yelled, and he stopped. “I apologize for hurting you Aly, it wasn’t my intention, but you’re the one making me to hurt you.” I scoffed. “You can’t get what you want from me, Timothy, please let me go, please.” He heaves. “I can’t Aly. This is your rightful place, right here next to me.” He leaned closer, and I turned my head. “You look

XAVIER. “Is everything ready?” I asked Ben as we took our seat on my private jet. “Yes, no need to worry. I called him, and I’ve set up a meeting with him.” He explained and I nodded. That’s a good start, we were on our way to Dubai to get Alyssa back, and with all of this going on, what surprised me most was when Benjamin said he knows someone in the mafia. I was beyond astonished, but it came to our favor because he was ready to hear us out. I sighed, rubbing my temples, the past three days haven’t been easy for Chelsea, Alyssa’s family and funny as it may sound, me. Everyone was on tenterhooks praying for Alyssa’s safety, and I’ve promised to bring her back home safely. “What are you thinking about?” Ben nudged my arms and I opened my eyes. “I don’t know, is this going to work?” I asked. I was skeptical about this plan, but I need to make this work ‘cause it’s the only way Alyssa can come home. Whatever I need to forfeit, I will do it as long as the woman I’ve come to
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Forty Nine
XAVIER TWO DAYS LATER It has been two days since I’ve been coming to Alyssa’s place and couldn’t find her. I have been going back and forth, knocking on her door or ringing the bell but no answer from her. The first thought that came to my mind the first day I couldn’t find her was that she ran away with my child, I mean I did a lot of nasty things to her and I would accept if she ran away but after getting some meaningful message from Chelsea, I could tell she didn’t leave on her own. With the financial influence I had, I made the cops search the whole town but still, there wasn’t any report about her, so my thought was that maybe she was abducted to another town. I alighted from my car and sighed, I closed the door then took quick strides into the building. “Good morning, Mr. Winthrop.” Caleb greeted. Caleb was the guy in charge of the security footage in Alyssa’s area, so here I am trying to see if I could find any clue in searching for her. “Morning, is the results ou
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Forty Eight
❤️❤️ ALYSSA ❤️❤️ I woke up with a headache and found myself in an unfamiliar room, I sat up groggily looking around to see if I can have an idea of where I was. The last thing I remembered was going to meet Tim in a café and having a chat while drinking my juice, then I suddenly felt dizzy and weak. What happened after that? A picture of Timothy walking towards me with a smirk played in my head and I shook my head, no, Timothy wouldn’t do this to me. He’s my friend, and he wouldn’t hurt me right, I sighed and rubbed my tummy, where am I and why did I feel whatever this was moving. “I can see that you are awake.” I snapped my head to the doorway and saw him resting his body on the door frame with a smile. “Where am I Tim?” I asked and he chuckled, walking closer to me. I shifted backwards but stopped when I hit the bed stand. “Oh my dear Alyssa, you are safe with me. So don’t bother your little brain about where we are or going.” He brought his hand to my face, but I swat
BEING HIS SECRETARY Chapter Forty Seven
XAVIER. After Alyssa and Chelsea left, Alyssa’s Mum stayed behind and the glare she was giving to me was too much. I cleared my throat to lessen the awkwardness, she has been staring at me for quite some time now, and it’s becoming uncomfortable. I attempted to leave, but she pulled me back. “Can I have a word with you?” She asked, and I paused. A word, with me. Did she want to speak to me about Alyssa and I? “Ma’am, is there anything wrong?” I asked, wiping my sweaty hands on my trousers. I’m nervous and I don’t know why? “Yes. Everything is wrong, my daughter living You is so wrong and all of this bullshit, everything is so wrong.” She yelled angrily and I sighed. I guessed right, this is all about Alyssa. “Ma’am, can you please tell me what’s wrong about it?” “You know you’re the first guy my Aly has loved, the day she confessed her feelings to you, and you rejected her, my Aly who was bubbling with life always cheerful and happy became sad. I noticed her behavior t
