CEO of my Heart
My brain stuttered hearing the name he mentioned. That literal moment in your life, where you are stuck between understanding and denial. Like, ‘this wasn’t it.’ ‘This was not supposed to be it.’ But this is my reality.
Amelia Hampton. My mother, who’s also the woman who took care of him, right? The woman who I longed for my whole life, took care of someone who’s not his blood. And now, I’m starting to question my existence here in his life.A forced smile appeared on my lips as the tears continued to shed. Without any sob, without any whimper - just plain pain.”Mother. You mean my mother.”Extreme hints of defeat and anxiousness appeared in his face.”There! That question must be worth a million dollars, huh?” I spat bitterly.”Baby-””I don’t want to hear your bullshits!” I shouted when he tried to stepRelated chapters

“I looked for you. Everywhere. I promise.” I calmed down a bit. He brought me back to the bed again and he kept on explaining on bended knees in front of me. I didn’t speak. I tried to control my emotions and to process everything. ”I almost gave up, Emma. I almost lose hope because looking for someone I didn’t know was not that easy. And your mom only remembers your name and slightest things about you.” He’s right. I don't remember things that much. All I know is her name and if this photo is not with me, I wouldn’t have remembered her face at all. ”But I can’t bear to stop looking for you thinking that you are everything she wanted. She helped me be the person I am today, she helped me when I thought it’s the end for me too. And here you are.” Cloud of tears started to appear in my eyes again.He didn’t do anything wrong. But why

Even after hearing all that from him, something is still lacking. I wanted to ask more questions, I wanted to ask more details. Yet, I didn’t know where I should start. And that just isn't what makes it more complicated, sometimes the past should not be forgotten because that past takes a big part of the future.I wondered, did he really loved me or did he just love the thought of me? The answer? How would I know? I don’t want to ask him. I’m afraid to hear his answers.He convinced me to eat breakfast with him. I am miserably seated on the dining table while he calculates all my actions. When he put the soup in front of me, I asked him questions.”Where is she now?”He sighed and put the spoon in front of me.”I’ll take you to that place when you’re ready.””I am ready.” I said without thinking.He eyed me ser

”Are you sure you want to do this?”I pursed my lips and nodded. I felt him holding my hand tight before he opened the door on his side. He opened the door for me and just by feeling the breeze of the wind, the aura and the presence that’s surrounding me changed right away.”Here,” Elijah led the way for me.Seeing the tombstones of deceased people gives me that kind of empathetic feeling. I’ve never been into a memorial park before, so I must admit that I’m not sure why I’m feeling this heavy.Me and Elijah walked not that far from where that car was parked. When we passed by an old tree, that’s when he stopped.I glanced at him and his eyes spoke already. My head turned to the direction of the headstone that’s in front of us.I was struck. The first sentence got me. Like this is the only moment that it finally sinks into my head.”In loving

Days happened so fast. For the span of two to three days, all of those situations happened like a snap. I was still coping up and trying to accept it all slowly and surely. Like what Elijah told me, the past may be a big part of today, but I won’t gamble my future for depending too much on the past. For now, I’ll focus on what’s on my plate. On things that are important. ”Zoey, everything okay?” I asked her. She seemed out of energy as usual. Usually, she’ll be talking to me endlessly like her mouth is not getting tired but now, she’s just spaced out playing with her food here in the cafe.””Yeah.” I narrowed my eyes on her. ”Actually no.” she sulked and put her cutlery harshly. I sighed heavily. I knew it. ”Why? What happened?” She pouted and looked at me. I was taken back by her intimidating looks at me. Don’t tell me I’m the problem? ”Don’t get me wrong, Emma. I’m not mad at you nor anything. It’s just
Fooling the CEO My calm in the chaos
Reaching the last step of the stairs, I peeked to his direction. A small smile appeared on my lips when I saw the man I’m looking for. He’s wearing gray lounge shorts and a loose black t-shirt.He’s on the second floor of his penthouse where his office is located. I saw him in front of his laptop, typing seriously. Even though I can only see one side of his face, it is clear in my vision that his eyebrows are for sure meeting each other. That’s his natural complex. The mad man who always looks mad. Well, I should add up to that. I mean, handsome mad man.Even when I’m standing on the last step of the stairs, due to his concentration he still wasn't able to notice me. A wicked idea lighted inside my head. Slowly, I came near his direction.I bowed down and hugged him from his back.”Boo,” I whispered.He didn’t even flinch. He just looked at me with that handsome smile on his face. He immediately grabbed me by the arms and made me sit on his lap. I
Fooling the CEO We are not the same
”My! Look at you!” Zoey squealed, scanning me from head to toe.My cheeks flushed standing in front of her full body sized mirror. She made me wear her heels and some of her what she calls ‘go-see’ clothes.”My clothes are still a bit loose because of your tiny frame. You want to shop for clothes?” she casually asked.I harshly shook my head in disapproval. “No. I think I have a pair of jeans at home and this top. I need to borrow your heels though.” I said.”Oh, you can just have those. I still have a lot in my closet.” she winked.And that’s how the new chapter of my life goes. The next few days are like a gasp of breath. The end of our first year is almost coming to an end.We both focused on our studies first before going on into our plans.”Yes, I’ll be going home early today. We just have a few subjects to take.” I said to t
Fooling the CEO Truth and Lies
I was almost out of my mind when we arrived at the building where I assume my father is hiding. How did he know all of this? I don’t know. ”Why are you doing this, Angelo? Why are you helping me?” I asked eagerly while he unlocked one of the doors in this building. He smiled lightly without looking at me. “I know you’re loyal to your man now. I just knew you wanted to help him with his errands.” My brows shot up with his shady answer. What? When the door finally sprang free. I saw the inside of the place. It’s a studio type apartment, nothing seems to look so special. The single window at the wall has broken glass. There are empty bottles of beer everywhere, and the smell… suddenly sent a gruesome memory in my head I can’t exactly figure out. I unconsciously walk inside which Angelo let me do it. I don’t even know why we are here, or who’s place it was. I scanned the whole place looking for anything and the next scene surprised me. The

Funny how life plays with you. One moment you’re looking at yourself living the life you dreamed of. Then another day comes, it all fades away.”Emma, we have to clean your wound.”I made my strides fast because I didn’t want Angelo to follow me. He didn’t sense that. Instead, he grabbed my wrist to stop me.”Fuck off!” I shrugged his hands.I saw how his eyes widened a little because of my sudden violence. He can’t blame me. All I heard was too much. I still can’t process everything that I heardand now he’s crowding me.”I just want to help you with your wound.” he said.”I don’t fucking care!” I shouted harshly. “Drive me back before my bodyguard would even cut your throat.” I said out of anger.His expression didn’t even change.”You think I’ll be scared?
