Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch Chapter 143
By the time Rick dropped me off at home, I had already dozed off thanks to Margaret's herbal tea. I woke up late to find Virginia sitting beside me on my bed."Hey, sleeping beauty!" Virginia said with a smile."Hi, Vi," I replied."How are you feeling?""Terrible. He's going to marry one woman and already has another as his mistress. And worse, I think she might be that woman from his past he was looking for.""Cat, I talked to the hottie. I'm going to tell you something, but it's for your own good. And my brother's too." Virginia seemed somewhat uncomfortable. "Alexander isn't getting married. All I know is that he found out that witch isn't pregnant.""What do you mean, Vi?""It has something to do with a test. But she's not pregnant, and he called off the engagement. As for the woman you saw kissing him today, that's more complicated, but what I know is that she's an ex-girlfriend, but Alexander doesn't have feelings for her." Virginia told me what she knew, which wasn't much."So

Alexander’s POVI arrived early at the company. I was anxious to talk to Catherine, explain the situation, and ask for forgiveness for the millionth time in the past few days. When Patrick arrived and saw me sitting there in the reception area, he threw cold water on my plans."Go to your office. She's not coming today. I gave her the day off, she deserves and needs it. And I promised the girls you wouldn't go after her today," Patrick said seriously."Damn it, Patrick!" I huffed like a moody teenager. "Let's get some coffee."When we reached the break room, Margaret, Rick, and Sam were whispering among themselves and fell silent when we walked in. We chatted for a bit, and then Patrick, Rick, and I went to my office."So, Rick, what do you know that I don't?" I pressed him."I don't know what you're talking about," Rick replied."Oh, you do! You definitely do!" I said, walking toward him. "What's going on with Catherine? Why are you being so much more protective of her, like you want

Alexander’s POVI called the secretary and arranged to meet her during lunch at a café near the clinic. When we arrived, she was already seated at a table in the back."Good afternoon, Mr. Miller. Mr. Guzman. How are you?" She greeted us very formally."Wait, you know me?" Patrick asked, surprised."I work weekends at the Social Club casino." She said somewhat awkwardly. "And you both tip really well. I'm Jacqueline.""Man, that's right! I even hit on you once..." Patrick recognized her and burst out laughing. "But without the makeup, with your hair tied back and glasses, you look so different.""Yes." Jacqueline agreed uncomfortably. "Thank you for calling, Mr. Miller.""Look, Jacqueline, I'll admit when you gave me your number, I thought you were hitting on me. But now, I'm curious." I said, sitting down."Mr. Miller, I work at the clinic because I need the salary, but honestly, Dr. Vale is a man without scruples, and I think what they're doing to you is absurd. Especially since I've

Alexander’s POVWhen we returned to my office, I was boiling with anger. We told Rick everything Jacqueline had told us at the coffee shop."Now, Rick, I want you to officially notify all our business partners, clients, suppliers, and every place we frequent that Celeste is no longer part of our company. And inform them that she's been trafficking corporate information and has contacts in all of them, and to maintain our partnership, I want them to investigate." I gave Rick his instructions, and he started working on it immediately."My God, this is like a cancer spread everywhere." Patrick was as shocked as I was."Oh, and call the Social Club and tell them I want Leila out today," I added."Alexander, when you were dating that slut Liz, she and Celeste got along really well, right?" Rick asked."Yeah, later Celeste said she was disappointed in Liz, that she never imagined it and never wanted to see her again. Why?""Because I'm starting to think your reunion with Liz wasn't a coincid

I took yesterday off, and today I was ready for battle. I had rested, thought a lot, and put my head in order. I would go to work and talk to Alexander. I found it strange that he hadn't reached out to me yet.I felt somewhat insecure, wondering if he had forgotten about me. That woman who kissed him in the reception area, could she be the woman he was looking for? If so, Virginia and Patrick were wrong, and Alexander had already forgotten me. Thinking about this made me sad. I needed to know.When Rick arrived, I called him for coffee in the break room. He would know the answers."Pretty woman, how are you?" Rick asked, examining my face."I'm fine, Rick, thanks for taking me home. I passed out before getting there, sorry.""Don't mention it, Cat. That's what friends are for. It was my pleasure to put you to bed." He said, making me laugh at his double entendre."Thank you anyway. But there's something I want you to answer.""Sure, what do you want to know?""Who's that woman?" Rick s

Patrick’s POVAlexander was euphoric. Yesterday at the end of the day, Rick and I convinced him to get rid of Liz before talking to Cat. Liz had been calling him persistently, and we thought it would be a problem. Rick told him to resolve it before causing Catherine any more suffering. In the end, he agreed.Rick's sisters said they would have the answer he wanted by the end of today, as it was the day Liz's mother would be at the salon. So we had to wait. Today I had a lot of work piled up, so the day would pass quickly.When I saw Cat sitting at her desk, I was very happy; she seemed much better. I exchanged a few quick words with her and went to my office. Soon the phone rang. Samantha told me it was Dr. Flavian Moreno, and asked to put the call through."Flavian, my friend, how are you?""Hi, Patrick. I'm a bit embarrassed, man, the job you asked for took longer than I expected. The lady is very discreet.""Man, I had completely forgotten about that. In the end, we discovered she w

Alexander’s POVPatrick was acting very strange. He seemed distressed. When we arrived at his house, besides us and Alan, Henry and Fred were also there. How weird."What's going on?" I said, starting to get nervous."Sit down," Patrick said, and I sat. "Remember when we fired Cat, I asked my friend from the police department to investigate her?""Yes. But that doesn't matter anymore," I said, shrugging."No, it wouldn't," Patrick was very nervous. "She really is an incredible person, very correct and honest. But he discovered something." He looked at Fred. "He found out who Peter's father is.""No way? Seriously?" Fred was surprised. "Man, I never spoke to Cat or Mel, but I tried to find this guy when Cat got pregnant and couldn't. Who is it?""Hold on," Patrick said. "Almost at the same time, Alan came to my office with the report about the investigation of the woman you've been looking for all this time, Alexander. He found her."I looked at Patrick, unable to decide if I was happy

Sam rushed into my office and said:"Cat, we need to go. Patrick called and told us to hurry to his house. Something's going on, everyone's there.""This is all so strange! I thought Patrick and Alan were acting weird," I commented."I noticed that too. But let's go, he said it's urgent and the driver is waiting for us in the garage."I grabbed my purse and left with Sam. Dennis was behind us and seemed even tenser than usual. He put us in the car and got in the front seat, which was unusual.When we left the building's parking lot, I looked out the window and saw that woman, Liz, at the building entrance. A chill ran through my entire body. What was happening?When we arrived at Patrick's house, I was shocked. Even the girls were there. Even Mari via video conference. And it seemed like everyone was crying. My head was spinning; in just a few seconds, I thought of the most terrible things, felt my knees weaken, and passed out.When I came to, I was lying on the couch, and Alexander wa

Henry’s POVWe returned from the beach house late Sunday afternoon. Fortunately, everyone had recovered well, and that nightmare was behind us. However, the days ahead promised to be quite turbulent. To make my mood worse, Sam postponed the wedding without discussion, though I understood her reasons.We had barely arrived when Flavian called with news that would shake Sam. Romulus had been released from jail. This stressed me out even more. They still hadn't identified who bought the chocolates or from which store, as the delivery person wasn't a store employee. They would have to review all security footage provided by the chocolate brand's stores, which would take time. And if that wasn't enough, Reynold still hadn't been found."Damn, Flavian, don't you have any good news for me?" I asked."Actually, I do. As I mentioned, I placed two undercover officers on standby at the prison. When Romulus left, they followed him and are now staking him out. So we know where he is and who his acc

Romulus’s POVFinally, that cheap excuse of a lawyer managed to get me out. I was released from prison earlier than expected, thanks to a lucky move by that good-for-nothing. Now I had all the energy to go through Sandro's accounts and finish off little Samantha.Nicole picked me up, and Sandro told me to rest for a week before he'd send instructions for me to take my position. So, Nicole took me to her apartment. I only went to my mother's house to get my things - I couldn't care less about that worthless family of mine.But I got a surprise when I arrived at Nicole's apartment; she had a guest, and it was the father of that rich boy who was screwing my Samantha. I came to the conclusion that all families are crap, especially since the old man hated his kids. But I'd learn more about that after I'd taken a shower and spent the whole night with Nicole. And that's exactly what I did."So, old timer, what's your deal with the rich kid?" I asked, sitting next to the old man the next day.

Samantha’s POVI listed everyone to him, and he became alarmed. He asked me to gather everyone in the living room. I ran out again. I found my mother feeling sick in her bedroom and asked Joaquin to take her to the living room. I also found Hebe and Heidi together and shouted for Henry and the guys to come help me with them as they seemed weaker. And I found Patrick throwing up in the bathroom."We need to go to the hospital now. They've been poisoned," Alvaro said, visibly worried. "Come on, let's get them into two cars. I'll go in one and Vince in the other, so we can monitor them. Joaquin, you drive one and Alexander the other. Sam, you stay with the kids, it's not good in your condition to go to the hospital in this chaos. Enzo, keep an eye on her, get her some tea to calm down, and if she stays nervous, call me."Alvaro gave orders like a true commander. He quickly organized everything, and they left for the hospital. They would give me updates, but I couldn't stop crying. Enzo, C

Samantha’s POVAfter all the stress from Enzo's birthday party, Hebe insisted we should go to her beach house the following weekend. She wanted to get excited about the wedding preparations right away, and she was genuinely thrilled about it.That weekend, off we went - friends, family, and dogs included. I invited Ivy and Luna, thinking it would be good for both of them to take their minds off things. Their parents were happy to see them so cheerful after Ivy's difficult week. Her mother told me she had been having nightmares and becoming very anxious.Henry, to my surprise, was very excited about the beach wedding. He kept talking about how beautiful Hebe's house was, but I wasn't prepared for what I saw. Hebe really had a taste for luxury and enormous houses. I'd say it was more of a beachfront mansion.The house was two stories high, built in an L-shape, with numerous glass walls - another thing Hebe loved because it allowed natural light to flood in. It also had a large infinity p

Henry’s POVThe situation with Reynold had gone completely out of control. He went too far by trying to assault the girl at his own grandson's birthday party. That was the last straw for Edward. Edward was furious and rightfully so, just like my nephew. As for my sister, she was deeply shaken that this had happened in her home, and the next day she called the landscaper to demolish the hidden garden and rebuild it completely open.The day after the party, we visited Ivy's family, trying to apologize for all of Reynold's mess. Fortunately, they were a very upstanding family with exceptional kindness. They were very grateful to Sam and Vince for looking for and taking care of Ivy, preventing the worst from happening.Ivy was very brave and filed a detailed police report, and Edward handed over the security camera footage. Luckily, Ivy's father was a judge's brother and knew the judge handling the case against Reynold. Given this and all the evidence we gathered, including the attack on S

Samantha’s POVGradually, Ivy began to calm down, embraced by Vince who hadn't let go of her since we found her. It was clear that Vince was more than upset about what had happened to her."Ivy, how are you? Do you want to talk about what happened?" Vince asked gently, since Ivy had stopped crying."Vince, I went to the bathroom, and when I came out, Enzo's grandfather cornered me," Ivy began. "Enzo had already warned my sister and me to stay away from him, saying he was a bad person. But he grabbed me by force, covered my mouth, and dragged me out through the back. I couldn't break free.""That criminal! We won't let this slide!" I said, filled with anger."Here, sweetheart, drink this tea. It'll make you feel better." Vince took the teacup and offered it to Ivy, but she was shaking badly and wouldn't let go of her torn dress, which would expose her chest if she released it. I went to her and held the dress so she could take the cup."Thank you! Both of you. The security guard told me
Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch S2-Chapter 137
Samantha’s POV"I don't like this, Vince," I commented, looking around and seeing no sign of Ivy. "Why would Ivy leave the party? This feels really weird to me.""I don't get it either, Sam, but I don't want to alarm anyone. It shouldn't be this hard to find a woman wearing lime green," Vince remarked."Let's check around the area, maybe she just stepped out for some fresh air," I suggested, though I wasn't very convinced. Like Vince, I didn't want to cause unnecessary panic."I hope that's all it is," Vince seemed very worried and even distressed."What's wrong, Vince?" I asked, concerned about his behavior."I don't know, Sam..." He put his hand on the back of his neck. "Do you think she's running away from me?""And why would she run away from you?" I found that strange."Why wouldn't she? Maybe I scare women away. My ex-fiancée broke up with me a month before our wedding." Vince was afraid of being rejected again. That witch really did a number on his heart."Vincent, should I call

Samantha’s POVThe rest of the week flew by so quickly that I forgot to tell Henry that Nicole had been at the office. That day, Henry and I went shopping for Enzo's birthday present - his birthday party was on Saturday, and he'd been ecstatic all week, calling me multiple times to talk about the party preparations, which I found quite amusing.Saturday came quickly, and I was feeling pretty relaxed, especially since changing my phone number had stopped the calls, and I was sleeping much better after that."Nightingale, are you ready?" Henry walked into the closet and picked up one of his watches, putting it on his wrist."Almost, handsome," I replied while finishing my makeup."Enzo won't stop calling me. What an anxious kid!""He's excited about this party." I found it funny because Enzo had been talking about nothing else for days."He gets excited about any party," Henry laughed. "I'll wait for you in the living room."I finished my makeup, put on my dress, and looked in the mirror

Samantha’s POVAfter having coffee with Manu, I went back to work and ended up being surprised. I wasn't expecting the visit I received at the company late that day. I was finishing up a report when my phone rang on my desk - it was the receptionist informing me that someone in the building lobby was insisting on speaking with me.I found myself wondering what I had done to deserve so many pests in my life. It would be better to get rid of this one right away, before it turned into a weed that keeps sprouting in the yard no matter how many times you pull it out. I told the receptionist I'd go down to meet my visitor, but that she wasn't authorized to enter the building. And that was what I did.I arrived at the lobby and saw the woman sitting in one of the armchairs in a corner away from the reception desk. She was one of those women who you can tell from a mile away was nothing but an opportunistic gold digger. She was wearing a white dress made of thin fabric that was slightly see-th
