Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 28- So Near Yet, So Far
Royce Miller's POVAfter I dropped Vera off at their house, I went home right away because I need to take a rest for my work tomorrow. I would have wanted to be with her for a long time but I was also thinking about my work at the office. I sighed because I already missed her so badly. Is this how you feel when you fall in love? I smiled as I remembered the intimate moments we shared together. It was like heavens to me, knowing I'm the first man she has given herself to.On the other hand, I also feel a little sad because she doesn't want commitments. I understand her because I was known to be a womanizer and maybe she is just afraid that she would end up hurting. But I will never hurt her. How could I do such thing when she is the only woman I love? Anyway, we'll be seeing each other more often starting tomorrow since she will start working in META. I smiled when I suddenly remembered what she looked like when she said she had to go home because she still have work tomorrow. If only

Vera Anderson's POV My mood was totally ruined after Margaret kissed Reid and I don't even know why I feel this way. All I know was that I'm not already in the mood. That woman was pissing me off and I don't like her. If she is really interested of Reid, then she is supposed not to do it here in META. She could have done it somewhere else. " Miss Vera, are you okay?", Reid asked me, with his voice a little shaky. "I'm fine sir, thank you", I responded, trying to sound natural. There was a deafening silence for some time but I'm just waiting here whenever he wants to chat with me. I can see Reid was busy encoding something on the computer. But sometimes I caught him taking a glimpse at me as if there's something he wanted to say. I did not bother asking him, instead, I focused my eyes on my computer screen. I just let the sliding door open so that, I could easily hear whenever he is talking to me. Then he stood up and came towards me. I slightly raised my head to meet his gaze. "

Royce Miller's POVWhen I saw Vera enter the function hall, my heart beat faster. She looks so beautiful in her long maxi dress like the real greek goddess who descended from Mount Olympus. Her loose long wavy dark brown hair also goes along with the swing of her body while going to where I am. Everyone's eyes were set on her like they were mesmerized by her presence. And I hate those men who can't take their eyes off her. The dress perfectly fits her, well, she didn't know that I personally chose the color and design of it.My heart kept pounding inside my chest upon looking at the woman I love coming towards me. If only I could tell the world who I really am and tell them how I love this woman. Yet, that's way too far at this very moment. God knows how much I wanted to tell Vera that it's me, yet, I was thinking of the possible consequences that might happen. So I have to act professionally because, with one false move, everything would surely go downhill.As soon as Vera got to whe

Vera Anderson's POV I have been lying in bed for several hours, but I'm still wide awake with my eyes focusing on the ceiling. It seems sleepiness doesn't want to visit me no matter how much I've tried all the sleeping positions. Everything that happened on my first day of work at META kept on coming back to my mind and I couldn't help but think about it deeply. I did not expect that I would be uncomfortable while I was with Reid inside the office. I don't understand why my heart kept on racing when he stared at me. And even when we were at the Welcome Dinner, I felt like I was drowning in the shivering sensation when his warm hand was clasping mine. And I'm certain that only one person had that effect on me. It's just Royce! The other side of my brain debated because how could it be Royce when he is in Beverly Hills? Besides, how could it be possible when Royce was not interested in business? I am really confused and I don't know what to believe. A part of my brain says it's Reid bu

Royce Miller's POVAfter meeting with Mr. Wilson and agreeing on a contract signing, we took our lunch since it's almost twelve noon. I was already starving and I know Vera too. She told me before she doesn't eat rice in the morning but only takes a cup of coffee and slices of bread, so I'm sure she is now hungry. "Uhm, you have a lovely EA Mr. Miller", Mr. Wilson complimented while we were taking our lunch. He was sitting opposite us and it's clear to me how his eyes were glued to Vera. I'm sure he was attracted to her because I can sense the way he stares and looks at her.Mr. Wilson is the manager of Universal Music Records and is probably about my age. I heard some rumors that this man had just got a divorce from his wife because of his deceitfulness. Anyway, it's his life and it has nothing to do with our business deal. Only that he will not include Vera in his list of women or I'll become his daunting opponent that will knock him down in a single blow."Mr. Miller? I said you'r

Royce Miller's POV My time in META went over and it's time for me to go home. I took a quick glimpse at Vera and I could see she was still busy on her computer. "Vera, shall we go now? I'll drive you home. I know you cannot drive yet because your arm was injured", I told her. "No sir, it's fine", she responded. "Vera, I insist okay?", I uttered. She did not protest anymore instead I saw her softly smiling. I don't know what she was thinking about but I smiled as well. We were about to leave the office after fixing everything when I saw Uncle Sam coming. I pushed the button for him to get inside. "Good afternoon sir", Vera greeted him. Uncle Sam just nodded as he took his seat on the couch. "I heard that you met a road accident a while ago. How are you Reid?", Uncle Sam asked and I saw the concern in his eyes. "I'm fine Uncle. Thank you. My EA had minor cuts on her arm but she is okay now", I responded. "You are not safe anymore Reid, so better to be extra careful when you

Vera Anderson's POV "Oh my God! what happened to your left arm darling? Why does it have a bandage?", Nanny was anxiously concerned when I went inside the house. She approached me and gave me a tight hug. "Are you okay?", she asked again and cupped my face. I know Nanny was really worried of me. "I'm fine Nanny. There's nothing to worry about", I responded and sat on the sofa bed. She followed and sit beside me. I know Nanny wants me to tell her what happened. But I was in doubt because I'm sure she would also tell Harold about it, and I don't want my brother to be worried. She grabbed the paper bag and looked into it. She took out my blouse and a blood stain on it became visible in her eyes. I think I could no longer hide everything from her because I know Nanny would never stop questioning me until I will tell her the truth. My apprehension serves me right because after telling her what happened earlier, she feel even more worried of me. "I think there's someone who wants to ha

Royce Miller's POV I feel glad that I have already unlocked my brother's safe file on his phone. I could not believe that he used the name of that woman Andrea as his password. Maybe my brother really loves that woman and it makes me more interested to know about her. I started scrolling the safe file starting with the photos but there were none. There we no videos as well but there was one saved file under the folder 'Recording'. I clicked it and tried to listen to it. I heard the sound of muffled voices so I tried to increase the phone's maximum volume to clearly hear the conversation. "I don't love you, Reid! I am just playing around with you! And now it's over. We are over!” “No! please don't leave me, Andrea, I love you so much. I can't live without you!”, “Let go of me!” It was only a fifteen seconds recording and it ended up after my twin brother's last word. So now I'm sure that my brother's breakup with Andrea was one of the causes of his accident. This woman was just pl

"Congratulations Vera!", Vince said. "Gurl, congratulations! You are now a certified Mommy!", Alexa uttered and kissed Vera's cheek. "Thank you. How about you? Are you not planning to get pregnant?", Vera asked. Vince and Alexa looked at each other as if there was something they wanted to tell. "Gurl, what is it?", Vera asked in confusion. "Uhm, the truth is---I am one-month pregnant gurl!" "Oh really?", Vera exclaimed in surprise. "Wow, bro congrats!", Royce hugged Vince and tapped
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 106- A Proposal
Vera's POVOne week had passed after my last conversation with Royce yet the sting of our farewell was still present. I thought it would be easy for me but with each passing day, I felt an inexplicable sadness and emptiness deep within. I was supposed to be happy with my decision but it did not turn out as I expected to happen. Until I found myself aimlessly scrolling through my phone, ending up in the recycle bin. The photos of Royce and me, which I had previously removed, were still there. As I looked at them, my tears began to flow one by one, as I yearned for those times we spent together.Dave on the other hand was just waiting for me to say 'yes' to his marriage proposal. I was supposed to accept his offer a day after I said goodbye to Royce but suddenly I found myself in a state of confusion.

Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 105- Forgiveness
Vera's POVI was resting in my bed, yet sleep eluded me. I kept on thinking about Royce and how he took the bullets that were intended for me. I was just thankful that nothing bad happened to him, otherwise, I couldn't find peace of mind in my lifetime.Reid and Mrs. Miller asked me to stay in the hospital until Royce woke up. But I decided to leave since I did not want him to see me. I was eternally grateful to him for saving me and my baby, and for that, I had already forgiven him. That was all.Meanwhile, I was thinking about Margaret. Finally, we got justice for Andrea. Her life imprisonment would be enough to pay for all the things she did to me, to my sister, and Roxette. Suddenly, Harold was knocking at the door. I knew that it was him since he usually knocked three times."Yes boo, come in!", I said.Harold entered my room and sat on my bed. "How are you, sweetie?""I'm fine boo.""Uhm, what do you want to do now sweetie? Are you still planning to go to Canada and settle the
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 104- Interception
Vera's POV While the jury was still deliberating about Margaret's cases, we took first a break outside. Vince approached us while Royce remained seated on a couch a little distant from us. "Hi babe!", Vince greeted Alexa with a kiss, and then he turned to me. "Hi Vera", he said and hugged me. "Hello, Vince. It's good to see you here! Uhm, by the way, this is my Mom. I mean, my biological mother and my younger sister", I said. "Hmm. Yes. Alexa told me about it", Vince responded and greeted Mom. "Hi, Aunt Olivia. Hello, little girl!", he messed up my little sister's long hair. She was a shy-type girl but according to my mother, she was not like this before when Andrea was still alive. She was attached to my twin sister so until now, she still couldn't move on from what happened. "Uhm, Vince let me introduce to you my friend Dave." "Dave, this is Vince, Alexa's boyfriend." Vince smiled and greeted him with a handshake. "Hi, bro! Nice meeting you." Dave returned the smile, but s
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 103- Face Trial
Vera's POV It was my alarm clock that woke me up from sleep. Despite the early hour, I had to get up due to Margaret's impending trial, a day I had been eagerly anticipating. I was hopeful for a just verdict that would make Margaret accountable for her actions. After this, I would be staying in Canada for good. This had been my plan before but it did not realize because I still wanted Margaret to pay for Identity Theft and most importantly, for killing my sister. My mother and I had already concurred on this. I would be living with her and my younger sister to make up those times we were not together. And--- Dave unexpectedly crossed my mind. I pondered over the possibility of accepting his marriage proposal. After all, he was a decent man, and eventually, I would learn to love him. But what if I fail? Everyone advised me to accept Dave's proposal for my baby's sake. Yet, I harbored doubts, as I didn't want to take advantage of his kindness. It would be unfair to him. A phone ca
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 102- Behind the Hatred
Royce's POV For us to avoid the media men, Reid and I took the elevator going to the basement. "Bro, are you okay?", I asked and tapped his shoulder, Reid just let out a heavy sigh, instead of answering my question. "Are we going home now bro? I think you need to take some rest", I said as I started the engine. "Nope, bro. Let's drop by at the police station. I wanted to see that traitor friend of mine!", Reid gritted his teeth as he emphasized the word 'traitor'. I did as what I was told to do but I did not bother to talk to him while we were on our way. I knew he was not okay. The corners of his mouth turned down in a sad frown while his brows furrowed. His complexion paled as if the blood had drained from his face. His gaze was a mixture of pain and anger for being betrayed by his best friend. A few moments later, we arrived at the police station. Reid got out of the car first so I hurried to get out as well. We entered at the entrance door and the first thing that caught ou
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 101- Gradual Resolution
Royce's POV Finally, the stars were aligned with us. With the help of our competent detectives, the police were able to catch the other kidnappers involved in Reid's kidnapping incident. We also found out that one of them was the driver who bumped into Dad's car, so, that person was indicted in a murder case. The police asked him the reason for killing my father but he said he was just following an order from his 'boss'—something that was baffling in my mind. Moreover, Nicholas Monet, also known as 'Simon Morris' was caught by the authorities at the LA Cruise Terminal when he was about to board a cruise ship. This time, I would make sure that this fucking asshole would be put behind bars and pay for all the crimes he committed. However, the person who ordered him to illicitly withdraw funds from our account was not yet identified. Until now, I still couldn't figure out who was behind it. On the other hand, Uncle Sam and Charles were already convicted of embezzlement and attempted
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 100- The Battle is Not Yet Over
Royce's POV As soon as mom saw us at the door, she felt a sense of relief that was like a soothing balm, easing the worry that gnawed her heart from the time Reid was kidnapped until I left to meet the kidnappers. She quickly ran towards us and opened her arms. "Reid! Oh! God Thank you so much!", mom exclaimed and hugged us while tears of joy rolled down her cheeks. "Are you okay son? Did they not hurt you?" "I'm fine, mom", Reid responded softly. "Royce! Thank you for fulfilling your promise to bring your brother back home. I'm glad you are both safe!", she said as she wiped her tears away. Her face lit up with a bright smile whispering words of love and joy as she embraced us warmly. But despite her smile, restlessness was evident in her eyes, indicating the need for her to get some rest. So Reid and I accompanied her to her room and waited until she had drifted off to sleep. Together we left mom's room, moving quietly so as not to disturb her. "Bro, I think you need to take
Falling Into a Happy-go-lucky CEO Chapter 99- Rescuing Reid
Royce's POV The ransom demanded for the release of my brother was already inside the money bag. Everything was set ready, but still waiting for the kidnappers' call to provide the precise location of our meetup. They insisted that I would come alone and I had to follow them for my brother's safety. However, the police had organized a backup team that would support me in carrying out my plan. Suddenly our residence telephone rang. I hurriedly picked it up for I thought it was coming from the kidnappers. "Good morning sir. This is from Ally Bank. We would like to inform you that your family savings account is temporarily frozen because we noticed suspicious activity", the bank personnel spoke intently. "What do you mean suspicious activity sir?", I asked in confusion. "After you had withdrawn the substantial sum of 100 million dollars, another transaction took place, depleting 500 million dollars from the account. It was only later when we discovered that Reid Miller's signature wa
