The next day, Bruno walked into the company, he was the most punctual as always, but this time he had something on his mind.

He glanced towards Beauty's desk.

*I guess she will be at work today. I asked her to take a day off after all*

He sighed.

"Good morning, Mr. Handsome!"

Someone cuts into his thoughts.

Bruno looked up, and his gaze followed the voice.

He found Jessie dressed to kill as always.

He knew her as a close friend of Beauty, actually her only friend. Also for her similarities with his sister Abigail.

*Should I ask her about Beauty? Not a good idea*

He nodded at her and she winked back.

As wild as always.

"Good morning, Mr. Bruno!"

Another greeting smiling like a fish.

That's Miss Charlotte. The main custom designer's assistant, she is always fangirling over Bruno. So he knows better to ignore her and avoid any drama.

Bruno simply smiled back and walked into his office.

Trying to focus, he went through the typed works yesterday and found some errors from Beauty's works.

  • CEO PLUS SIZE CRUSH   OPEN CONFESSION

    She was at her desk discussing with Jessie when she heard Maya's soft, melodic voice calling Bruno's name."Well look at that, Bruno is openly getting a love confession, such a brave little spoiled girl. I heard she is from a famous family. Now it's like a tradition of heartbreaks... No one warned her that Bruno hates public display".Jessie whispered to Beauty trying to make a joke of the situation, but Beauty was too disturbed to take it lightly.Her heart was pounding harder and harder.*Look at that tiny waist and hips, Maya is a god's work of art!*"Mr. Bruno," Maya said, her tone sweet yet confident, "I know this might be unexpected, but I can't keep these feelings to myself any longer."She took a deep breath, her cheeks tinged with a delicate blush. "I admire you so much. You're kind, intelligent, and everything I've been looking for. I just... I wanted you to know how I feel. I think .... I know I have fallen for you. I want you to give me a chance."Bruno was a bit embarras

    Beauty watched Bruno leave the place, and slammed his office door after him.*He must be pissed by all of that*"Your love is angry, won't you do something?"Jessie whispered, cutting into Beauty's thoughts, and hit her on the arm playfully."Ouch!"Beauty cried out sharply flexing her arm."Oh my gosh did it hurt so much, I am sorry".Jessie gasped, looking worried.Before Beauty could respond, they were interrupted by a high-pitched voice."Fatty, cancel my schedule for next week? I am traveling to Paris with my boyfriend".Kathy was standing right in front of Beauty's desk with her pet cat in her arms.Jessie was flabbergasted.First, Beauty is not even her assistant to cancel her next week's appointments and also why telling her the details and purpose of all that, Vacation with her boyfriend."Kathy, my name is Bea...".Beauty paused, unable to complete it, because of her insecurities, especially when dealing with one of them, her bullies."Bea ... what? Oh! You are smart, I was

    "They said, Kathy dumped him, he is not too good in bed and also not her type that's why".Jessie continued."Please don't tell me about their relationship".Beauty pleaded with Jessie as the two ex lover birds continued arguing."It's either you choose to work here or your vacation, whatever".Fred's voice thundered."You're not even the boss of this company, Bruno is, yet you don't see him boss people around, Jerk".Kathy snapped back in annoyance."Maybe the Manager sounds like a joke to you, I dare you to leave this company without a permit".Fred threatened, and that triggered her.They continued arguing.His assistant cuts in"Sir""What!"Fred snapped back like a wounded lion.Kathy flipped her hair, elegantly, petting her cat unbothered."The meeting time".She replied respectfully.Fred walked out of the department angrily, followed by his assistant."Well, that was a good fight".Jessie whispered, climbing down her hair with her fingers.Just then an announcement over the in

    Bruno walked in at that exact moment."Excuse us for a few minutes. Seeing your body size discourages these girls from keeping fit. They won't take the training seriously. When it's time to talk about designs, I'll call you. No offense," Fred said to her.Not even a pin drop could be heard after that. Everyone was shocked.What a statement!Not even Jessie dared challenge him after that remark, though she wanted to. He had the power to end her career right then and there.Beauty glanced at each of her colleagues around the table. A few of them felt bad for her; others were amused.The ladies had smooth skin, beautiful chins, nice figures, and gorgeous hair, all dressed in fashionable crop tops, well.... except her.She looked like a nursing mother with her double chin. She was too ashamed to glance at Bruno, afraid of seeing his reaction. What if he felt the same as the others?Better to keep her fragile heart safe."Yes, sir," Beauty nodded slowly.Jessie's face turned pale. She clea

  • CEO PLUS SIZE CRUSH   TRY ME

    "My relationship with her is none of your business."Bruno's eyes were cold, his posture tense and intimidating as he stepped closer to Fred, making him shrink back against the wall.Fred swallowed hard, realizing he had made a mistake by provoking Bruno. But his ego wouldn't let him back down."Did she bribe you to defend her? I don't want to imagine the gross moment when she had to pull off her clothes. I love women too, but I have standards... even if it's for one-night stands.""Are you done?" Bruno asked almost immediately interrupting him.Fred chuckled nervously, tucking his hands into his pockets, waiting for a reaction."Yes... yes, I am."Bruno stepped closer and smiled. The smile drained all the courage from Fred and replaced it with fear.It was a different Bruno. No one in the company had ever seen him smile like that.His smile is so evil. Did he do that on purpose to scare me? Dang it, it's working, Fred thought, clenching his fists nervously.Bruno towered over Fred li

    "Try me."Fred swallowed hard, his entire body trembling under Bruno's gaze."Okay, okay! I... I didn't mean anything by it! Just... calm down, alright? I won't say anything about her again. I swear."Bruno finally stepped back, his cold aura melting away, though his eyes still held a dangerous edge."See that you don't," he said quietly, starting to walk towards the exit. "Because next time, there won't be any warnings. You can insult me, but not her."Fred scoffed in disbelief."Really, dude!" he muttered, still terrified, but he had to protect his pride.The next sound he heard, apart from his pounding heart, was the loud bang of the door.Bruno had left the room.Fred swallowed and slowly raised his hand to his face."What the hell was that? My whole body was shaking like a leaf. That fool, if only he weren't the son of Hathaway..." He clenched his pink palm tightly."What a simp!"---Beauty went home that day, enduring yet another round of humiliation. She had a dull, throbbing

    "Jess, I'm so sick. I have fever,my body is so hot, I feel like I could die. My parents aren't home, and I need you. Please come, urgently, if you can. Please if you can get some drug from a pharmacy, however if you can't I will understand."She hit send, hoping Jessie would come quickly.Curling back into her blankets, she closed her burning eyes, hoping the fever would break soon.Then, she remembered the door was locked. Her body was weak, her muscles heavy as if weighed down by bricks, but she knew she had to keep the door open in case Jessie arrived.She pressed her lips together and forced herself out of bed, her legs trembling. Each step felt like she was dragging herself through thick mud, her legs wobbly and unsteady.Her breath came in shallow gasps as she moved slowly across the room, clutching the wall for support. She nearly stumbled but caught herself, her fingers gripping the doorframe tightly.She reached the front door, using the last bit of her strength to unlock it.

    Just seeing her name felt urgent, leaving him worried. Something tugged at him, and without thinking twice, he tapped on the message.His eyes widened as he read her text."Jess, I'm so sick. I think it's fever. It's so bad I feel like I could die. My parents aren't home, and I need you. Please come, urgently, if you can. I can't even see the alphabets clearly to type. Can you save me? If you can't, I will understand."Bruno froze when his gaze landed on the time the message was received.Then he jumped to his feet."An hour ago?!" he screamed internally, panicking as he rushed to his wardrobe to change.An hour had passed since she sent the message. Beauty must have been waiting, thinking Jessie was ignoring her. Not knowing she had accidentally sent it to him instead. Worse, she was home alone.Without wasting another second,Bruno grabbed his jacket and keys and rushed out the door.He dialed her number, hoping she would pick up, so he could reassure her that he was on his way.Unf

    "I am still waiting for your reply," Jessie said, her voice strict."I-I choose to go," Beauty said slowly.Jessie sighed and gave her a hug."I know you can do it," she whispered softly."Thanks, Jessie," Beauty murmured. Just then, Jessie's phone rang. They parted from the hug, and she took her phone from where she had left it on Beauty's bed.She glanced at the screen and saw Bruno's name flashing."Bruno?" she muttered and looked up at Beauty, who immediately felt uncomfortable and opened her mouth to say something."Hold on a sec," Jessie said instead, holding up a finger as she answered the call."Hey, Mr. Bruno, what's up?"Bruno hesitated, as if thinking about what to say."Jessie, I don't know what's going on. Beauty called me about an hour ago and said I shouldn't worry about the reunion. Did I do something wrong? Is she mad at me?"Jessie's eyes widened, and she glanced at Beauty, who was now fid

    The sun was hot in the afternoon when Jessie arrived at Beauty's home, her face brimming with excitement.It's the reunion day, and she seemed more eager than Beauty, herself.Jessie bounded up to the door, pressing the doorbell repeatedly and impatiently.Behind her, Kai, the male makeup artist, stepped out of the car.He wore a fitted pastel pink crop top that hugged his slender frame, paired with high-waisted black trousers that accentuated his long legs.His platinum blonde hair fell in soft waves, framing his delicate features, and his bold, glittery eyeliner made his blue eyes pop. A few playful piercings adorned his ears, perfectly matching his vibrant, flamboyant style.Jessie sighed as she jabbed the doorbell once more."Don't tell me she's developed cold feet. This is not the time to be nervous, Beauty," she muttered under her breath.She pressed the doorbell again, repeatedly.Her phone buzzed in

    When the call connected, the screen flickered to reveal Beyoncé sitting at the head of a large conference table. Around her were several well-dressed individuals, clearly involved in some kind of meeting.Their eyes shifted toward the screen the moment Beauty's face appeared.Beauty nervously straightened up, took a deep breath, and leaned into the screen.She was able to recognize one or two faces in fact all of them!They were her high school classmates.Beyoncé was sitting at the center. She had the most glow up.Her blonde hair cascaded around her shoulders, styled in soft waves that perfectly framed her barbie-like face.She had a flawless complexion, her rosy cheeks accentuating her wide, doll-like eyes. And that low cleavage outfit that proudly announces the fullness and heaviness of her massive bosom. Hiding nothing except the peach center."Beauty! Finally, it's great to see you again...it's been

    Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Bruno ran a hand through his tousled hair, his eyes drifting toward the window.Deep in thought.The anticipation for Beauty's school reunion event stirred a mixture of excitement and anxiety deep inside.Tomorrow is D-Day!The day he will finally confess his feelings.He may go to the Reunion as a fake Boyfriend, but he is going home as a real one.She would say yes... Jessie assured him.He laid back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling.His thoughts were consumed by the memory of how Beauty had looked at him before they said goodbye that evening.He wanted to kiss her but...Bruno let out a slow breath.Tomorrow could change everything or nothing. And that uncertainty was what kept his heart pounding.****Beauty was going through her phone, the tweets about their reunion hashtags were all over the social media platforms.Re

    Abigail rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "Ugh, don't even get me started. I'm done with male assistants. Seems like every male assistant is gay and every gay guy available wants to work here for your sake. Very straightforward individuals. I'm tired of it.""Right. So you decided on... her?" He glanced at Chloe, who was still grinning like she was meeting a celebrity.Abigail shrugged. "Why not? She's competent, and unlike the others, she's not here to swoon over you."Bruno looked back at Trivia, smiling sheepishly at him and waving with her face flushed."Very convincing".Bruno replied.Trivia face flushed more red, and she quickly looked down at her tablet, nervously tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "I.... I just admire your work, Mr. Bruno," she stammered, "but I promise I'm here to assist Ms. Abigail."Abigail gave Bruno a pointed look, grinning like the cat that got the cream. "See? She's here for me.""Right..." Bruno muttered, unconvinced. He turned and sta

    Bruno pushed open the grand mahogany door of his family mansion, feeling exhausted all over. He dared to make a decision that may likely make his father roar like a wounded lion.But for Beauty...He took a deep breath and made his way across the marble-floored living room. It had been a long, intense day, and all he wanted was some peace and quiet. Unfortunately for him, his sister, Abigail, was seated on the plush, cream-colored sectional, her eyes fixed on her laptop. The soft glow of the screen reflected off the modern, glass coffee table in front of her. She looked up from her work as he walked by, immediately catching a familiar scent in the air."That... feminine perfume?" Abigail raised an eyebrow, closing her laptop slowly. "Bruno, who is she?"Bruno rolled his eyes subtly, too tired to entertain her questions. He simply ignored her and walked toward the hallway that led to his suite. The smell she mentioned was faint but noticeable, a subtle floral scent of Beauty's perf

    "I... am sorry... I need to head out now. I've got some things to take care of before tomorrow," Bruno said softly, his eyes intensely fixed on Beauty, waiting for her reply.She nodded and met his gaze."Okay... thanks again. I appreciate it."Bruno nodded and stood there, staring down at her, his lips slightly parted. Beauty felt her throat tighten at the way he looked at her. It was like he had something more to say or... do with those lips.Jessie, of course, noticed the body language and stepped back with a smile, giving them just enough space but still watching closely.Beauty tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, looking down at her shoes for a moment before meeting Bruno's gaze again. Their eyes locked for a moment.Finally, Bruno spoke first."I... I will see you tomorrow."Jessie slapped her forehead. "Come on, Mr. Bruno! I think Beauty deserves a proper goodbye. Remember, the sedu-practice the chemistry for the reunion. A hug? A kiss on the cheek? Or something!""Not so e

    As soon as Beauty was close enough, Jessie clasped both sides of Beauty's face, turning it left and right as if inspecting a masterpiece."You look like you just stepped out of a movie! What have you done?!"Jessie snapped.Beauty laughed, a little embarrassed, stepping back shyly."It's just a haircut, Jess. I also had a little makeover, that's all. Stop with the flattering"she blushed."I am serious here girl. You look amazing!" She turned to Bruno, who was standing behind Beauty, watching Beauty with a smile on his face."Bruno, did you see this? Did you actually see how gorgeous she is?!" Jessie teased."She's always been beautiful".he said, giving Beauty a look that made her cheeks warm. "Always been beautiful," Jessie said, imitating Bruno's calm tone."That's all?! I bet you were sitting there in the car, dying inside, trying to act all cool. Look at you.Mr. Cool Guy," Jessie said, crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow.Bruno licked his lips, his smile widening as he tuck

    Beauty's breath caught instantly. "I... mean ..I want you to see yourself as a beautiful, gorgeous woman that you are".Bruno added, clenching his fingers tightly inside his pockets."That's all? Please tell me that's not all," Beauty pleaded silently, her eyes focused on him. Her pulse thrummed in her ears, and she couldn't move her eyes away from his.She waited, but nothing more came from his mouth. She had to say something."Thanks...for...everything,Sir...Bruno...Bruno".She stammered."Also...the chocolates... I enjoyed them. Thanks... you're a really nice person," she smiled back at him."It's nothing. My pleasure".Bruno replied and cursed to himself as he held the car door open for her, his heart pounding in his chest. He had wanted to tell her not just how beautiful she looked but how much she meant to him. How much he wanted her. But, as always, the words stayed trapped in his head.What the hell is wrong with him?!"Thank you," Beauty said softly, stepping into the car.
