I answer the phone, “what is it this time, Gabriel?” Why are you calling me? I am calling because I wanted to know if you have decided what I asked you about. No, Gabriel, I have not had time to think about that right now. Why not? As you must know, I got an invitation in the mail for my ten–year high school reunion.

Wow, it has been ten years for you already? Yes, it has been ten years already and I cannot believe it. I was about to confirm my reservation about attending. That is good to know. I take it that you will be going by yourself then? What business of yours is it whether I go alone or not? We are not married anymore. I know that Gabriel says to me, cannot I even care about you a little?

Why do you even care now, Gabriel? You did not seem to care when you were fucking your secretary. I know it was my fault. I’ve should have been stronger and honored our vows. Yes, you should have, and now you have a baby on the way because of it. “Yes, I know that, and I regret what I have do

    It is the day of the class reunion, and I was lucky to get some time from work for this. Of course, I am going to have to work double shifts to make up for this time away from work. I am certainly up early today in my hotel room and very anxious about tonight. I just wish that my parents were here to see what I have accomplished so far. Ring, ring, I answer my cellphone after being in my thoughts. “Hey Sandy?” My goodness, Maddison, you were supposed to call me once you reached your hotel room. Oh, I am so sorry, I completely forgot. Once I got off the airplane and took an Uber to the hotel and checked into my room. I laid on the bed, before I knew it, morning came.

    As I am still talking to the former cheerleaders. I still get the feeling that if I am being stared at by someone. However, when I turn around, I don’t see that person looking at me. Whoever, that person was, is gone now. Hopefully, whoever it was, I doubt that I see them again. Ok, just standing there talking to some of the people I knew in high school. I am just talking and having a good time, until I feel someone tap my shoulder. That is when I turn around and there he was, Mr. Shane Evans. He is looking more fine than before, tall, tan and beautiful green eyes. If you have a moment, he says, but aren’t you Maddison Wong, he asks me. Yes, I am, I replied. Didn’t you use to be a nerd? Yes, I did keep my head in the books, so I could get into a good college. Well, look at you, the years have been good to you. You look great, all I could do was say thank you while blushing. You have come a long way from the nerdy, pretty girl I have seen around campus ten years ago. Wow, when I thi

    After we are done eating, Shane takes me to his room. We walk in and there is a king-size bed with a canopy in the middle of the room. On the right side of the room, I see a door which I assume leads to the bathroom. Will you excuse me for a minute, I say to Shane, I need to freshen up. Sure go ahead, the bathroom is right through that door. I open the door to the bathroom and what I see is beyond my imagination. This bathroom is not a regular bathroom, it is more of an ensuite and has a huge Jacuzzi tub. Now that is something I can relax in and do other things in. Are you alright in there I hear Shane through the door. I’m fine just admiring your bathroom. Oh, okay, thought you fell in for a minute. No, I wouldn’t be right out in a few minutes. Why am I so nervous being with this man? I have been dreaming of this since before I married Gabriel. Now, Maddison, you can do this he finally sees your worth, I tell myself. You didn’t even see a ring on his finger, either. Make sure thoug

    Monday came and Shane had driven me to the small Springfield airport. He could only leave me at security since he wasn’t allowed past them because of COVID. He kisses me goodbye before I am called. The TSA agent says next then I go through security seeing Shane wave goodbye. I wave back blowing a kiss at him and he catches it putting it right on his heart. While waiting to be called to the plane, the flight attendant said it would be about thirty minutes since the pilot hadn’t shown up yet. So, I just take a seat in one of the nice comfy chairs to wait. As I am sitting here looking through my phone I see a text from Shane. “Maddison, I would like to thank you for a wonderful time after the reunion. It was great seeing you after all this time. I would like to see you again. Hope to hear from you soon. Shane My word I can not believe that he wants to see me again. I’m just staring at my phone looking at the text I just received.

    After feeling a tap on my shoulders I turn around and see that my boss Chief Administrator Lee Jones or Lee as he wants me to call him standing there looking at everyone. Suddenly, the nurses scatter, about to continue their shifts. Hello Maddison, I take it that you had a nice time at your high school reunion, he states. Why, yes, I did, as I replied to him. That is good to hear, however, you can chit-chat about it on your break or during lunch. Now there is a patient in room 215 who needs to be tended to. Yes, Mr. Jones, I will get right to that now. As I am heading towards the patient's room. Mr. Jones calls me, and says to me, remember to call me Lee. Oh, another thing, I want to see you in my office during your thirty-minute break. Sir, my break is only fifteen minutes, I respond to him. Well, I am making an exception, and we’re going to need the whole thirty minutes. Okay, I will see you in a few hours, Lee for my break. Good, that gives us some time to chat about your reunion

    When my shift is over, and I clock out, I grab the roses and then head to my car in the parking lot. The roses smelled so good too. I can’t believe that he would send me roses after our rendezvous during the class reunion. I wonder if anyone noticed that the popular jock and the pretty nerdy girl were missing. No, I highly doubt that, but I will read about how it went on our school website soon.Driving home I just couldn’t believe that Shane would send me flowers, and they are my favorite too. It was so thoughtful of him to do that. I guess he just wanted to show that he respects me. I guess they mean it when they say some people have changed since high school, they weren’t lying. Furthermore, I put the flowers in the passenger sand and then buckled them up. “Yes, people I buckled my flowers because they are beautiful, and didn’t want them to fall out of the seat.”“I know that it is crazy, but they are gorgeous, so I am not taking any chances.” "If you all don’t like it, will tough n

    Who can be at the door this time of night? I asked myself. The doorbell just keeps ringing and ringing. My goodness, I am coming I say to the person on the other side of the door. I get to the door to open it. I swear Gabriel if this is you I already told you that we were through and I am not taking you back. To my surprise when I finally swung the door open it was not my ex-husband Gabriel, it was Emily his former secretary. What the h e double hockey sticks are you doing here? I know that I am the last person that you want to see. You got that right as I’m about to close the door. She puts her hand on the door, please could you let me in? I must speak to you to clear the air. You do know it is very late and now is not a good time for you to be here. I’m so sorry Maddison, but this is the only time I could get away from Gabriel so I could talk to you. He is hovering over me all the time. I just could not stand it anymore so I had to escape once he fell asleep. Okay, then come in I

    Happy Ending Part III will be too busy healing from having babies, and we will both be too tired to have any from taking care of them. I have never considered that. Of course, you did not. You were too busy thinking about getting some after I had our babies. Men always think with their tiny brains and not the big ones. Maddison, are you alright? Yes, I am fine. Why does it seem as if you are having another contraction? Of course, I have another one, but talking to you is distracting me to get me through the pain. That is when I press the button to call the nurse. The nurse comes in and asks us what she can do for us. Shane tells her that I had another contraction. This time, it was extreme. Let me get the doctor then. She walks back out and comes back in with the doctor. The doctor rechecks me, then tells me, all right, you are fully dilated, Mrs. Evans.Okay, Maddison, are you ready to push? I am ready to push, I answer him. Okay, now, on the next contraction, bear down and push. On

    Thank you again for forgiving me, Maddison. You do not know how much this means to me. I promise that I will never bother you or Shane again. Wait, aren’t you even going to introduce me to this person? If this person finally, had you come to your senses, I want to meet her before you go. I do not know if that is a clever idea because you two might know each other. Oh, please, I cannot know someone that you know. Are you sure that you want to meet this person? Of course I do. Now, come on, I want to see who she is. All right, but do not say that I did not warn you.Maddison, Shane, and Desmond go out to meet this person with whom Gabriel has a relationship. However, the minute Maddison sees the person, she is amazed by who it is. Oh, my goodness, Betty Sue, is that you? Um, hi, Maddison. I heard you married the most eligible bachelor in Missouri and had moved to Ohio, so I had to come to see for myself after running into your ex-husband here. It turns out that Gabriel and I knew each o

  • DEAR CEO, LOVE ME HARDER   Chapter Seventy-One Unmasked

    Sam, what did you say just now? I asked him if Shane had forgiven him. Why are you asking me this silly question? It recalls a situation where someone repeatedly asked for forgiveness before I was ready. If you do not mind me asking, why do you not want to forgive him? I would instead not get into the details right now. The struggle with forgiveness is a heavy burden I carry.You know, Samantha, there is something so familiar about you, but I cannot put my finger on it. I know we have asked you this before, but are you sure you do not have a brother or cousin to whom you are related? I do not think Samantha answers while twiddling her finger in her lap. Oh boy, they are starting to ask questions, and I do not know how long I can keep this up. Being close to Maddison without her knowing it is me, James, makes me feel at ease.If she knew it was me under this disguise, she would bite my head off. Not to mention that Shane would probably kill me. Would he really, however? He does have fo

    Well, I will tell you if you promise not to tell Shane. Okay, I say I promise with my fingers crossed behind my back. So, tell me, what did you do for Shane? We were at the casino the night before your class reunion, and he was on edge. He was saying that I should have given her a chance. Now I know that he was talking about you. He was so on edge that I had to put something in his drink to calm him down. Then I called a call girl, or should I say escort? That is what they prefer to be called now.So that is what you did, huh, Desmond? You wanted to give me something to make me feel better. Now, it is all because of you that people think that I am a gambler and a drunk. What can I say, dear brother? I wanted you to suffer. Why did you want me to drug me? I wanted people to see the downfall of Shane Evans, the most eligible bachelor in Missouri. However, I was not counting on you meeting Maddison here and marrying her so quickly. I cannot believe this is the man that I slept with while

    We have to get my brother over here somehow. The problem is how we do that. Maybe if I tell him that you are not treating me right, he might come running to my rescue as he did the night I was drowning my sorrows. That plan might work because he does have a thing for babes in distress. What about Gabriel, in any case? What do we do about him? That will be easy. All I would have to do is tell him I want to be with him again. He will most certainly take the bait there.Wow, I cannot believe your ex-husband would be that gullible. Oh, when it comes to me, he will be. I know that he has been aching for a second chance with me. Of course, I will just be pretending. My heart belongs to you now and forever. All right, now, let us put this plan to work. I go ahead and call Desmond and Gabriel since I know they both have a weakness for me.First, it was Desmond. Hello, he answered. Desmond, could you come to the house right now? Shane and I had a big argument, and he left. I do not know when h

  • DEAR CEO, LOVE ME HARDER   Chapter Sixty-Eight Taking Another Look

    Maddison, I told you about what happened. Did I not tell you when we met at the class reunion? No, you did not, she replied. Oops, I am so sorry that I did not mention it. How could you not say it after we slept together that night? I am sorry I was captivated by your beauty. The moment I saw you again, I knew we were meant to be with each other. Oh. Yes, that is right, I say. We should look at the USB DRIVE again to see if it is you or someone else pretending to be you. Who knows, it is worth looking at again. However, I cannot believe Gabriel is trying to make me doubt you. I knew what he was trying to do from the beginning. I mean, he was up to something. He just wanted to put doubt in my head about you. As if I did not know who you were. He tried to put it there so you can forgive him for his indiscretions. That will be hard if he keeps doing stupid things like this. I am sure it would have been easier if I had forgiven him. However, I must focus on making sure that our babies m

  • DEAR CEO, LOVE ME HARDER   Chapter Sixty-Seven Gabriel Shows Shane Proof

    Gabriel Shows Shane ProofWhile driving away, I could not believe what Shane said was true about Maddison. She certainly did get him since it was over fifteen minutes. I only left because I was not happy with the glare she was giving me. That is something that I never want to see again. Who knew pregnant women could be so apprehensive? I will assume that she was not fond of the fact that I kept her husband away too long. Anyway, I am going to find proof that their husband of hers, Shane, was gambling in the casinos before even seeing Maddison again.I need to call my source to see what they can find. I dial the number and let it ring until the person I need to speak to answers. Once they answered the phone, the first question they asked me was how it went. They asked if you were able to get the information that you needed. Unfortunately, no, he did not believe a word I said. He claims that he stopped gambling in casinos the moment he saw my ex-wife Maddison again at their high school

  • DEAR CEO, LOVE ME HARDER   Chapter Sixty-Six Gabriel

    When I went over to Maddison and Shane’s house, I had no idea a party was happening until I heard the music in the background. However, I did ring the doorbell first before I decided to enter since the door was unlocked. Who leaves their door unlocked anyway in this neighborhood? Don’t they know criminals are looking for a way into someone’s home? I hope they do not let just anybody walk up in here. Walking through their house, I see many decorations, including pink and blue balloons, food, and a cake. I asked myself what was with all this stuff; then, it dawned on me that this must be a gender reveal party. That would explain all the decorations around the house. I hear much noise, so I head towards the backyard. I saw some people that Maddison and I knew there in college. I also see my best friend and his wife, Sandy. Why was I not invited to this? Asking myself. Looking at the two of them makes me envious. It should have been all four of us together. It did not turn out that way b

  • DEAR CEO, LOVE ME HARDER   Chapter Sixty-Five Maddison

    Do you mean to tell me the night before you came to the reunion that you had some call girl in your hotel room? How did she look? Did she look better than me? Maddison, come on now. I did not know you would be at the reunion. Well, it is good that I did not see you with this woman the day before, or else I would have thought you were just another guy interested in that kind of stuff. I get it: a man has needs, and it was not as if we had any idea that we would run into each other. I know it was a stupid idea, but it was just sex to me.Well, hopefully, you were careful with this call girl. Did you have her sign an NDA? Have her sign what, you know, a nondisclosure agreement. It means she cannot discuss or say anything she did with you. Of course, I did. After all, I am a successful billionaire, and she knows the consequences of discussing what happened between us. I hope you are right, honey because women will do anything for the right price. It should not be a problem if she knows wh
