"I am fine, you don't have to worry," Rosalie drew out and pulled the door open. "You should go mum, don't worry about me."

"Rosalie," Pamela shook her head and sighed. She wasn't close to her daughter anymore and she could only watch.

"Bye," Rosalie stated and Pamela finally walked out.

"Take care of yourself," Pamela said and Rosalie nodded. She watched her mum go down the lift before she shut the door. At once, she flopped to the sofa.

Oh heavens. She was tired. Alexander's words kept re-echoing in her head. He… he didn't deny the fact that he was going to get engaged to Sophia.

She sniffed and reached for her phone. She wanted to ask questions. She wanted to know what was going on. Her hands impulsively kept clicking on the phone as her thoughts ate her deep.

Why was he getting engaged to Sophia? She thought they had something. He cherished and cared for her, what was going on?

Perhaps because Sophia was his class. She was lesser than his status. He definitely should cherish Sophi

    "Xander," Rosalie gasped and gripped his shirt tightly. Her hands went into his hair dishevelling it even more as both their tongues fought for dominance.She let out a sensual cry as Alexander's hand drove into the attire she was in. His fingers trailed on her flawless back skin and Rosalie gasped."I love your skin," Alexander breathed and tongued her face. "Everything about you seems to drive me crazy."It was the truth he knew long ago. Back then when she was new to his office, he admired her face, her eyes. All the things about her were gorgeously made."Really —" Rosalie breathed and grabbed his face. Her hand grabbed his jaw and she kissed it, "Really?" She sniffed back her cry and smiled. "I'm attracted to you sir," it was an impulsive let out of feelings and Alexander chortled."Let's admire even more," a smirk curled on his lips and in a minute, the top she was in was off and on the floor."Sir," Rosalie inhaled as her cheeks heated up. Her feet labored to maintain their sta

    Rosalie bit her lip severely. Staring out through the window, she sighed. Oh goodness. After she left his place yesterday, she wasn't herself.It felt like she made a wrong decision but what could she do? She couldn't stay. They were supposed to be together but he was engaged to a woman she was envious of.A woman that was better than her. No matter how hard Rosalie tried to shake off the feeling, she couldn't. It was something she knew. She stood no chance against Sophia.Sophia was far better than her.Now in a tank top with jacket and factory pants, she reached for her purse. It was Monday and it meant she had to work.Heaven knows the thing on her mind was resigning. But she clearly remembered he paid her ahead. She had used the money to solve all of her issues.She sniffed and ran her hands through her hair. He wanted her to stay. If he desired her, why was he with Sophia? Was she missing something?She breathed out and grabbed her handbag. Maybe when she reached the office.She

    Alexander drummed repeatedly on his attire. "I hate you!" Her voice reverberated in his ear even though it's been one hour she left.She shouldn't. He couldn't take it. He took a deep breath and shut his eyes. She was the only one who his heart wanted out of the multitudes. She shouldn't hate him.He felt the need to hold her close. But he couldn't. The forces pushing him away from her were greater than the forces that bound them together.But maybe he could break it. He was going insane knowing she hated him. He stood to his feet at once. He had to talk to her.She shouldn't hate him. That would be the biggest thing that'd break him.He trotted out of the office at once. Seeing her was what he wanted. She was the one his heart yearned for. He reached his car and got in. He needed to rest his orbs on her.The drive to her apartment was a fast one. He parked in the parking lot and just as he made to step down, he paused at the image that got off the stairs.His brows creased and he bli

  • Bound to my billionaire boss    Chapter 42— Making things right

    Weeks of anger and restraint had passed for both Alexander and Rosalie. On Alexander's side, the family was planning the wedding for Sophia and him.On Rosalie's side, it was gruesome to watch the man he loved with another lady. Sophia never failed to taunt her.It was Sophia's thinking she was going to make Rosalie jealous until she left Alexander and then she will make her pay.But it was another case for Rosalie, she was starting to find out there was an issue for Alexander. Alexander was colder to her but it never bothered her.He'd be warm when he let his guards down.They were in the office since it was Monday, the beginning of a new week. Rosalie sucked in her cheeks as she walked to Alexander's office. She had just gone to get the files from the MD office and she paid blind eyes to the looks on both the assistants and the MD himself.She cared less. She took deep breaths when she sighted Alexander's door. She was sacrificing her ego and self respect because she loved him. And

    Rosalie paused. She stood unblinking as her brain processed what she heard. He was sorry."I…" Alexander brushed his hair and tugged on it. He stood from the sofa and walked to her. He grabbed her to himself and pulled her into his warm embrace.Both relaxed into comfort. Rosalie gripped her boss' t-shirt tighter than she had ever done. He came back to her? And apologized? It felt surreal."I'm sorry" Alexander whispered and threaded his hand through her scalp. "I'm sorry" he reiterated. He took his lips to her hair, taking in the scent of her shampoo."I missed you," Rosalie whispered with her hands wrapped firmly around Alexander. "So much Xander and I'm glad you came.""It's okay" Alexander whispered and broke the hug. "I'm here now, I won't leave" he added and pulled her to the sofa.They settled on it and both leaned into each other for warmth. Silence reigned as Rosalie wallowed in her thoughts.He came; with packaged flowers in his hold. What made him change his mind? Was it be

    It was love making to the duo. Alexander held her close and kneaded the part he placed his hands on. He massaged her body to help with her soreness.Time went by as they laid beside each other. Rosalie relaxed into his hold. It was still unbelievable he was that close to her. She placed her head on his chest and listened to his rhythmic heartbeat.She wanted to ask questions; to know about why he was away and cold to her but she couldn't — she didn't want him to leave."Rosie," Alexander raised her head to his with brows raised. "Where did you slip into, I asked a question."Huh? Rosalie licked her lips and sat up on the sofa. "I…I was just happy you aren't cold anymore and at the same time—" she licked her lips and sniffed."I'm scared you might go back into your shell. I wouldn't be able to take it if you do. It was heartbreaking for me" she cried and he exhaled."It's okay," Alexander pulled her to himself and brushed her nose with his. "I won't" he whispered more like a promise.I

    Alexander's POVI rested in the backseat and took deep breaths. It had to be done because it was necessary. I couldn't go further anymore.And what if the family gets angry?They were bound to be. I tried a lot. From childhood, teenage life, I buried my passion for them. I did what I could but not losing Rosalie. A decision I made. First, I had to break it to Sophia.I grabbed my phone and I sighted the ring. Her family got it so I might just need to give it back. "Alex, oh my god, you're calling," her squeal filled my ears and the lines of my lips etched into a frown."Let's meet at Delightfoods" I muttered and again, her squeal erupted."You're asking me on a date? Oh my god, I'm so excited. When Alex?""In ten minutes times" I breathed out and ended the call. Running my hands through my hair, I scowled.I wasn't supposed to go on with the engagement. Now that the media knew about it, it was certain Sophia wouldn't back down without a fight.I sighed. Our relationship might just be

    "Come in," Alexander called out and Rosalie pushed the door open. When his eyes rested on her, the insides of him grew warm."Good morning, sir" Rosalie muttered as she tried to push her jelly legs towards him. What happened between them in the past two days was the only thing that replayed in her head.She was just resting her eyes on him for the past two days. They only spoke on the phone."Come," Rosalie nodded and bit the insides of her cheeks as she forced her shy self to walk to him.As soon as she was close enough, Alexander grabbed her hand and trailed his hands on her supple skin. He missed the feeling of her skin.He was away from her for two days. He missed her."You're pretty," he whispered and gently kissed her arm. Rosalie shuddered and shut her eyes as his lips moved on her skin.When she didn't feel anything, she opened her eyes and they locked eyes. Alexander pulled her to his thighs and a gasp escaped her lips."Sir—" she breathed out wide-eyed."What?" Alexander ch

    There she was. The love of his life. Her happiness written all over her face all she watered the flowers. It was only a few days after the engagement that Alexander found out she loved gardening and he loved watching her admire the flowers."They smell so nice," Rosalie turned to him with a big smile and Alexander chuckled, his eyes running down her tummy.That had a life in her.The tummy having another life in her. His happiness knew no bounds when the doctor declared it to them.It was one month after the engagement that they broke the news to them and he had never been that excited."Come on, stop staring at me," Rosalie rolled her eyes, her cheeks turning crimson red and Alexander laughed as he walked towards her."I can't wait to see the baby. I really want to," He muttered as he thought of it. He'd get to be a father. Be a good father that he never had. Nothing would be more fulfilling.But would he be able to treat the baby right?"It'll like me, wouldn't it?""Oh, I don't lik

    "Why are you doing this to me, Aria?" I drawled as I stared at my best friend who had her face fully into her phone, "Aria?""What?" She jerked her face up suddenly and I spotted the crimson blush on her face and my brows knitted up, "what the hell is going on, huh?""What?" She rolled her eyes and quickly switched off her phone screen which heightened my suspicion. It's been three weeks since we went to visit Sophia.Her mum gave me a mouthful which made Xander visibly angry and when the woman didn't stop talking, Xander had to show her my wounds that her daughter inflicted on me.Collins was on the run because apart from the fact that Xander wanted to tear him into pieces, the authorities were looking for him.And then, my wound had almost healed up and things were starting to look good and we were out in the restaurant. Aria and I and we have been talking for a whole ass hour but she wouldn't even hear me."What'd you say?" She flashed me a fake smile, "I was just busy looking at s

    Fucked four time in a day. My stitches hurting yet I still went on. Sleeping in the arms of the man I love. I rolled on the bed and back into his warm arms that were waiting for me."Good morning, my gorgeous rose," Xander whispered and I could swear butterflies danced in my tummy. My cheeks heated up so much I was sure it'd boil an egg and Xander released a small laugh behind me."It always amuse me.""What?" I asked and at once he rolled over until he was lying over me and I released a wince."Oh my," Xander moved backwards at once, "Sorry about that."“What amuses you?" I confronted with a pout and he laughed as he settled beside me, his hands raking my hair."Your shyness yet boldness." He locked eyes with me, a smile forming on his lips. "I always look forward to seeing you bold yet shy."All of his words added to the heated feeling inside of me. Warmth. Love. I smiled and leaned into him, "I'm after all full of surprises."He chuckled as he nodded, "True. Now let's get you to ea

    Rosalie's POV"I can manage to walk and you know that," I rolled my eyes when Xander snorted after I spoke. I was in his arms. He was taking me inside the house even after I tried to work on my own."Do you know what you've gone through?" Xander rolled his eyes, "I'm surprised you're perfectly fine and it makes me happy. I wouldn't have been able to deal with it if I had lost you."My cheeks heated up and I leaned into him, "now that's enough, please put me down."Xander chuckled, his eyes darting around since we were in the living room and gently, he placed me on the two seater couch and at once settled beside me, pulling my head onto his chest, "I owe you a proper apology.""I am sorry." He breathed out and exhaled while I stared up at him. I could count the number of times he had apologized to me before and how hard it's been. But that moment was different, he was saying everything thoughtfully."For wanting to let us go. Believe me I felt horrible. Thought you'll hate me. I didn't

    Alexander's POV"Rosie…" I called as I took a step while she glared at me with eyes full of pain."Really? You want to live in my memories and not stay with me huh?" She shook her head before moving towards me and at once her fist made contact with my chest."Really huh? Really? It's better to leave me huh? That's it? You don't care if I live in pain huh?" She continued, her fist driving into my chest repeatedly as her tears ran down before while I remained glued to my spot.I didn't deserve her. Not once have I ever deserved her."Rosie, stop it," her mum rushed towards her and grabbed her arm and I finally got out of my thoughts when the punching stopped."It's okay," I let out and sighed, "let her hit me. I deserve it.""Thank god you know!" Rosie screamed before sending a final punch to my chest and then her tears dropped. "You're such an idiot, Xander.""You know everything except how to console a woman," she sniffed and leaned into me, "how can you want to leave huh?" Her voice t

    "He won't even pick up? Wow, wow," I chuckled and fought back my tears as I tried Xander's number once more.He wants to leave the city and me… wow. I shook my head as I reminisced on his words. We're in the hospital since I was brought there right after my attack."He wants to leave," I sobbed once more."I told you!" Aria screamed and hit the wall, "he wasn't worth it! You lost your father and all he could think of is to leave! Goddamn it! I hate him more!""Xander," I sniffed as I dialed the number again, "he's not picking up.""He won't," mum cut in and sniffed, "I… made him go away.""What do you mean?""I gave an outburst right after Raymond died. He's the cause of everything and I just wanted him away. I… I made him promise to leave you alone after all the chaos he caused.""What?" I gripped my chest as I fought back my tears, "how's he at fault?""Sophia came after you because of him! You were hit because of him! You were almost killed. Got shot! It was because of him that you

    White ceiling coatings that my eyes were almost used to. The blank point where I try to recognise the ceiling was gone now because I understood it.With the pain hammering in my chest and the sniffles plus the deep scent that hit my nostrils, I needed no soothsayer to tell me I was in the hospital.My hands shook at that moment and then the memories came rushing like a wind into my head."Rosie,"The familiar feminine voice called and I whipped my head to the voice at once, "mum.""Rosie," mum called panickedly before her hands tightened around me and I let out a whimper, "I'm sorry," mum sniffed, "are you okay, are you okay?""Are you okay?" A tear dropped down her eyelids as she watched me, "should I call the doctor huh?""I… I," I gulped as I glanced around, "water. I need… water.""Here," I heard the friendly feminine voice and at once the glass cup met my lips and I gulped down water while I stared at Aria. She had a warm smile on her face while she watched me."I'm so glad you'r

    "Take one step and I pull the trigger here," Sophia warned, her voice laced with anger. "You think I brought you here to see him? No. I just want him to see you drop dead. I want to show him what he gets for choosing someone else over me.""Sophia, you are crossing the line," Xander gritted, his fist clenching and his eyes pinned on me in fear, concern and the one that warmed my heart, in love."Rosie, stay still. You are not dying," he assured me and I heard his voice tremble at the end. Something my Xander doesn't do.Fear. He was in fear too."How could you?" Sophia started, her voice distant and barely audible, "choose this thing over me,""She's just s fucking poor girl. I am way better!""I don't love you!" Xander yelled and took a step and at once, Sophia raised the gun and fired into the air, "take one step and the next bullet goes into her head," she glanced at her wristwatch and exhaled."Remember I am always vulnerable with you Xander.

    Headache. Blurry vision. It was what welcomed me as my eyes fluttered open and at once I gasped.Where was I huh? I… I was with Raphael and suddenly… My throat went dry with the realization. I've been kidnapped. At once, I let out a scream and almost immediately, a hand drove onto my face, hard."Don't you scream bitch!"The familiar voice. Sophia. I panted as my eyes darted around and I realized we were in a car and were still in the airport. The glasses of the car were tinted and… they couldn't see meTurning to Sophia, hee face held a lazy look and she had her eyes shut while I accessed her. How'd she come to the airport? How'd she know I was leaving? Does she know Xander is here?And where was Collins? Did he assist her?Heavens. There was no answer. My eyes moved around the car as urgency seeped in my bones. Raphael told me we had only minutes left and it was a private jet. We should have left.We should have if not for this maniac woman."Why did you kidnap me? Why the hell am I
