Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss The Half-girlfriend
Melanie storms into her room, the door swinging open with a soft thud. Her emotions still simmer from the heated exchange with Ryan and her mind races with the thoughts of betrayal and overstepped boundaries.As she enters, her gaze sweeps the room, coming to an abrupt halt on the figure lying on her bed. Caleb is sprawled across her bed, half-naked just as she had left him earlier. The sheet rides low on his hips, revealing the defined contours of his chest and abs.Melanie’s breath is caught in her throat, her anger momentarily forgotten as Caleb’s eyes meet hers, a lazy smile spreading across his face. “Hey,” he drawls, his voice husky and for a moment, Melanie stands frozen, her eyes locked on Caleb’s. The tension between them crackles, a mix of unresolved emotions and unspoken desires.The memory of their passionate night floods back, and Melanie’s cheeks flush, most especially because she did not expect to find Caleb still in her bed, looking so relaxed and inviting. “Hey,” sh

Location: last floor of the guest house in Silver Oaks Resort, 77B Maple Ridge, Orion.Caleb walks into the room he shares with Alistair, still smiling after his conversation with Melanie."Hey, man!" Alistair calls out, not looking up from his laptop screen."Hey, Al. What's up?" Caleb drops onto their bed, kicking off his shoes. "Just trying to complete this one mission in GTA Vice City after you left me without a word at the bar yesterday, to go be with a woman that is not yet your woman," Alistair says, though his eyes remain fixed on the screen, his fingers flying across the keyboard, but he rolls his eyes. "Saying that I left you without a word is too big of an allegation, my friend" Caleb chuckles.“I remember mentioning that I would step out to speak to Melanie…” Caleb tries to recall.“Speak not sleep with her right?” Alex corrects.“Oh…shut up” Caleb laughs, heading to the bathroom to freshen up.As Caleb showers, his mind wanders back to Melanie. Their conversation left

As Caleb approaches room 16B, he notices nurses Patel and Thompson huddled near the intercom, exchanging worried glances that make Caleb quicken his steps to get to them ASAP.“Hey, what's up?” Caleb asks, his curiosity piqued.“We are trying to reach Miss Carson…” Nurse Patel hesitates as she speaks.“Mrs. Wellinton,” Caleb corrects.“My bad…we were used to referring to her as Mrs. Wellinton before Ryan asked us to refer to her as Miss Carson” Patel clarifies.“Continue,” Caleb gives the go-ahead.“Ryan gave me a letter, but Nurse Thompson and I don’t want to disturb her if she is resting, even though she barely does that,” Nurse Patel informs him.“Do you have any idea what is in the letter?” Caleb’s eyes narrow, as he stretches forward his hands to collect the note.“It is a letter for the miss, and reading it will mean a total invasion of her privacy, so we don’t know, but Ryan insisted that it was urgent and we promised to hand it over to her as soon as we can, but I am guessing

Melanie storms into Ryan's room, to have a conversation with him, and probably fill him in about the new status of her relationship with Caleb, even though they had quite the misunderstanding less than an hour ago, she still wants to carry him along in what is going on, so that she doesn’t completely shut him out of her life because of a silly misunderstanding, even though she made a mental note to discuss what exactly happened between them calmly on her way to his room, without trying to make it seem like she was intentionally rebuking him. She wants to have a proper conversation with him so that what happened between both of them won’t keep hanging in the air like a bad cloud. Melanie was expecting to find Ryan lounging or lying on his bed, watching TikTok’s, since watching tiktok is slowly starting to become his favorite thing as of late, but instead, she finds room service tidying up his room, without any sign of his things around. “Excuse me,” Melanie says, confusion etched on

“Unbelievable!” she mutters as she leaves the guest house lobby because many people gathered on her after the scene that Phil created.“He just leaves without a word?” she questions herself as she drags her feet towards the direction of the elevator.“No explanation, no apology, nothing!” she marvels because she still can't believe that he would bolt without a word, despite how frustrated he was when she traveled to Pearl Coast and he thought that she didn't leave a word for him.“After everything we’ve been through. He disappears like a coward.” Melanie shakes her head as she approaches the elevator and places her hand on the round metallic button to open it, and she steps in like a robot.“What about our friendship?” she mutters and that causes the heads of the three adults who were inside the elevator when she walked in, share glances.“Our trust?” she continues“Did it mean nothing to him?” as Melanie continues her quiet ranting session, they exchange glances and just assume that

“Where do you think you are going?” Caleb gets up from his bed with quick and immediate effect, as he pulls Melanie back and says, immediately her hand wraps around the doorknob of her room.“Away from you,” Melanie answers him as she opens the room door in an attempt to go out but Caleb bangs the door shut and gets in front of it.“We are not done talking here, and as a result, you are not stepping out of that room,” Caleb tells her sternly.“Wait a dammn minute…do you know that this is my room?” Melanie scoffs as she blinks back in shock.“Of course, I know that,” Caleb answers her calmly.“Why did you want to get away from me?” Caleb asks her gently, refusing to allow her to step out of her room as he places himself gracefully in front of her door.“I need to cool down away from you” Melanie sighs as she answers him.“Well, you can do that away from me but wedding the four corners of these walls” Caleb but she raises an eyebrow at him.“Allow me to explain that to you” Caleb starts

Caleb finishes setting up everything that he bought from the mall, washing the containers that he needs, and chopping the fruits that he needs. Then he sends one of the staff of the resort, a security guard to get him a transparent container that he will use in stuffing everything that he bought because he doesn’t want Melanie to see what is coming for her at all.As he waits for the staff to return with the transparent and the container, he starts to clean up while he waits because he wants to do everything about Melanie’s self-care day himself, and he can't help but hope and pray that everything comes out the way he has planned.The security guard that he gave his card earlier to get him a container that he would be using, and be able to shop for his wife and kids as long as he got him what he wanted, but to his astonishment, the security guard returns with a big rectangular container, handing it over to him.He didn’t exactly describe what he wanted to the security guard, because h

Caleb's meticulous attention to detail mesmerizes her for a moment before her alter ego takes over. “Just how many women has he done this for him to be this thorough?” She asks no one but herself. “There must have been a lot of them in his life, and now I am here on a vacation away from my crazy ex-boyfriend, but I am allowing myself to enter the league of another man's 99 other women,” she says out loud as she goes to the bathtub to examine the keen arrangement of things.“Is being in a trial relationship with Caleb Wellington the best decision?” The overthinker in her takes over “I highly doubt that” the overthinker in her continues. “Then why am I here?” The logical part of her asks. “If you ask me, your engine needed periodic servicing, and Caleb was the only good mechanic that you found.” Her alter ego replies to her. “Oh please,” Melanie rolls her eyes. “There must be other guys that are good in bed way more than Caleb.” She argues."Of course, there are other guys that w

Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss The Worst-Kept Secret
Caleb’s mind reels with the Alistair ten-year-long revelation. He feels like he has been punched in the gut, his breath is knocked out of him as the room seems to be spinning around him as he struggles to process the truth that Sophia, the woman he blamed himself for violating almost ten years ago, had manipulated him and actually fed him aphrodisiacs without his knowledge or consent.“When did you find out?” Caleb asks his best friend, trying to suppress the wave of anger, betrayal, and disgust, trying to overshadow him.“The morning of your accident,” Alistair answers and a wave of emotions hits Caleb.“How could she do this to me, most importantly, how could you do this to me?” Caleb questions Alistair as he thinks back to that night, wondering how he could have been so blind.“It wasn’t in my place to tell you at first, because later that day you got involved in the crash and was in a coma for two weeks,” Alistair tells him.“What happened to telling me after I woke up two weeks l

Caleb waits for a while before trying to clarify anything with Alistair, and his order actually comes in, so he picks up the room delivery, opens it, and takes it to Alistair who is a picky eater to lick so that the natural sugar from the honey can help stabilize his blood sugar level.“I don’t like honey at all, so I won't lick it,” Alistair refuses and Caleb almost loses his temper, but he calms himself down and goes to the table to find a cup, then he takes a large spoonful of honey, mixes it with water to create a soothing drink for him before going back to him.“You have to drink this, otherwise I will force it down your throat myself,” he says to Alistair, but he still shakes his head.“I don’t like the taste of honey,” Alistair says.“Well brother, you don’t have a choice here, so take it and chug it down in one goal because neither of us will sleep with their two eyes closed in this room today if we don’t sort this out” Caleb warns as he hands the soothing drink over to his be
Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss Unpacking the Past
Since Melanie insisted that he should order takeout for Alistair, he goes back to Oakwood Essentials to grab him pizza from Food Court and a wide variety of soda from the departmental store, so that he can have something to snack on later after they probably talk things through, before he leaves the mall and heads back to the guest house.On getting back to the guest house, he picks up the key card to the room, before making his way back to his and Alistair’s shared room, but on getting to the room, he realizes that everything in the room is just like he left it, without any sign of Alistair entering the room while he was away.He feels really disappointed and sad, as he drops the peace offering that he got for Alistair on the ground, before stepping into the shower for a quick bath. His shower doesn’t waste time because he wasn’t under the shower this time around to get his mind off things, he just wanted a cold shower after a stressful day, after which he returns to the room to chan
Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss Defining The Lines
Caleb and Melani eat their dinner in considerable silence without either of them trying to say anything to each other, even though they both have quite a lot to say.“Like I said earlier, the reason for this trial relationship is because I came close enough to getting trapped inside a marriage with Alex Sinclair almost a month ago, which is while I feel like a trial relationship is an important vetting process to determine if the other person matches what each of us wants in our partner, so the fact that I brought up this trial relationship doesn’t mean I should be the one benefitting from it,” Melanie finally breaks the silence, while Caleb listens carefully because he isn’t halfway gone with his food like Melanie is with hers.“This is an evaluation period for me, where I am trying to check if you have everything that I want in a man because the last thing I want is to settle for less just because you have a lot of money to throw around”“I may not be from a rich family, but I am wo

“Both,” Caleb speaks up after a while and even though Melanie wants to ask him so badly if he is sure or not, she doesn’t and she picks up the menu that she was checking earlier to see what she wants to eat.“S, what catches your eye? Want to start with some appetizers?” as they both check the menu, Caleb asks Melanie.“No, I think I’ll skip the appetizer and go straight for the main course,” Melanie answers as she shakes her head.“How about you?” she asks him as her eyes scan the menu for something suitable to eat and instead of doing trial and error with food, she tries to look for a dish that she knows isn’t likely to go wrong since she is starving.“Same here…I’m in the mood for something hearty” Caleb smiles and they both return to searching the menu and few minutes later, a friendly woman with a warm smile, clad in the same uniform that Melanie saw Valeri wear earlier, and assumes that she is their server.“Welcome to Coastal Cove! What can I get for you tonight?” she inquires.

“Hey babes, you are running late, and at this point, I think we might have to compress our date night plans.” Caleb sends an actual text that Melanie reads instead of trying to hurry her up as he has been doing for the past 15 minutes. “I am out now, where should I meet you?” Melanie texts him back almost immediately. “Just wait in front of the guest house; I will come and get you,” Caleb texts her back. So she and Valeri make their way to the front of the guest house together while having the conversation they couldn’t have in her room because Melanie didn’t want the other crew members to know the terrible thing that happened to her. “I am sorry to ask this, but I really want to know a few things about your child, if you don’t mind” Melanie starts, and Valeri nods, asking her to go on. “How old were you when you had her, and how old is she now” Melanie inquires. “I was 16 when I had her, and she is 5 years old now” Valeri answers Melanie. “I am sorry to ask so many questions, b

After Valeri left Melanie with instructions on how to look for her date, before leaving the boutique, the sales representative returned with the same dress in two sizes, one two sizes lower and the other her exact size that she tried on earlier.“Explain to me why you have two dresses with you,” Melanie asks the sales representative after inspecting the sizes of the two dresses.“We are in a bit of a pickle because your upper body is a size eight since you have a relatively smaller upper body up your hips is where we have an issue since your lower body is a size twelve” the sales representative explains.“I understand your concerns and one size lower would have been understandable, but two sizes lower?” Melanie expresses her hesitation as she inspects the size 8 with clear judgment in her eyes before returning the dress and shaking her head that she doesn’t want to try it on.“Why don’t you just step into the fitting room to fit it out first,” the sales rep says as she returns the dre

“What the hell just happened” Calen questions himself because he can’t seem to wrap his head around it. “Anybody who doesn't know the type of relationship that Alistair and Sophie share will think she is either his sister or he is in love with her because I don't get why he is trying to make an enemy out of me for something that happened 12 years ago,” Caleb mutters as he hisses. “Now he walked out of the room angrily, but he didn't feed me back about the details of the reservation that I asked him to make” Caleb mutters,“I was so engrossed with the movie that I was watching and the fact that I wanted to make it up to him by giving him the gifts that I starved him of, that I completely forgot to ask about the reservation that he went to put in place” he blames himself.“Well, in my defense…I had no idea that he was going to blow a conversation as simple as that out of proportion and even end up walking out on me” he tries to justify his actions.“At this point, I don't know if I ow
Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss Caleb's Complicated Relationship
Caleb returns to his and Alistair’s shared room before Alistair comes back, and then he picks up Alistair's PC, logs into Alistair's Netflix account, selects his profile under Alistair's account instead of login out the account and logging in his own, and he goes straight his list to check out of the series of movies that he added earlier. He selects the first movie on his list that is not a seasonal movie, just a 1-hour 36-minute movie, called Happiness Is, while he snacks on his French toast that is supposed to be his breakfast. He starts the movie with no hope or expectations whatsoever, he is just watching it because he doesn't want to commit himself to yet another seasonal film that he knows he doesn't have time to keep up with. When he started watching the movie, the movie was really chaotic and he couldn't understand what the focus was, so he started hoping and praying for Alistair to just show up.Then the movie seems to resonate with what is going on in his life at the mom
