Well, I think we've messed up your night enough. Don't worry, Mr. Sullivan. I guarantee that any discussion our company wants to have with yours will be done exclusively during business hours and arranged directly with your assistant. “ the Stra. Ahmed solemnly assured, not looking the least bit concerned to disguise her satisfaction with her partner's displeasure “Now, if you'll excuse us...“It was indeed a great pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Sullivan. And, Mr. Sullivan, on behalf of all of us, I wish you much success in your new professional endeavors. Have a good night. “Mr. Davis greeted them, equally apologetic and nervous, as he placed a hand on Winston's shoulder and began to guide him away, apparently in a silent request that his partner stop throwing sidelong glances at the couple.“ If that's what you deal with every day at work…” Charlie commented, as soon as the trio were far enough away that I couldn't hear them anymore “So, more than ever, I support the idea of you retirin
“You really have a fascinating job, Mrs. Sullivan. One of the women surrounding Charlie, a redhead with frosty features she'd never be able to remember the name, laughed, though it didn't sound genuine at all.Forcing the thousandth crooked smile she needed to manage that night, Charlie darted her eyes around, looking desperately for Morgan among that sea of smart, corporate people who only seemed to know how to talk about profits, status, or, if she was lucky, her last vacation. skiing in the south of France or something like that. As her wife, of course, she couldn't refuse the invitation to attend the celebration Morgan had decided to hold at the office to celebrate the success of yet another of his investments. However, when she had heard him tell Hiroshi to organize a party, she had thought of snacks, cocktails and employees happy with the bonus. But that wasn't what she had gotten.There was food, of course, but it was delivered by the waiters on gleaming trays instead of sittin
" What? No! “ Morgan immediately denied, looking shocked. “I've never even been in a room alone with her. Victoria is the daughter of a late partner of mine and took over part of the family business, even against her will. “ he rolled his eyes, as if just talking about it exhausted him “ Her true goal in life is to find a rich husband and make him work for her. Which would be none of my business if she hadn't decided I was number one. “ he snorted, rolling his eyes “ But I assure you I never had anything to do with her. Especially since I met her less than two years ago, at a time when a certain naughty little girl had already entered my life and was consuming my every thought. “ He touched the crease between her brows, stroking the taut skin until she finally gave in.“Well, that still doesn't change the fact that I was about to jump on her neck if she kept implying that our marriage was going to end soon and she was going to become her wife. Charlie snarled, furious, and not just at
“Perverted little girl…” Nibbling her earlobe, he began to move with increasing speed inside her, filling the office with the erotic sounds of flesh against flesh “Offering so easily to me… I guess I need to give in a lesson in you... So my Charlie knows perfectly well what happens when bratty, horny little girls let their own father's business partner do whatever they want to them...With a rough snarl that reverberated throughout the empty office, he began to move violently inside, rubbing every inch of her helpless, wet flesh, until she, too, was lost in the fantasy that they were still just friends, and that he he had surprised her with such behavior after an innocent visit. She wouldn't change a thing about the way things had gone between them thus far, “except the fact that he might not yet love her, of course,” but it was all so…hot.The moment his cock hit a particularly pleasurable spot inside her, Charlie let herself go into orgasm, feeling the moment as he grabbed her ankle
“What are you doing here, Samantha?! “ Charlie snarled, possessed, approaching her “Morgan already made it very clear that you were forbidden to enter this building!“Oh, I know. He hired good security this time, I had to give them a lot more than I had planned for them to let me in through the fire escapes. “Samantha gave an easy shrug, as if she were sharing a gossip with an old friend.“Well, so they just lost their jobs. And you, don't think there's anything you can do to stop the will contest hearing from happening in two days. Now get out of my husband's office! “Charlie order , furious, pointing to the door she had closed “ Immediately!“ The hearing... Of course... “ Samantha nodded, as if she was thoughtful “ Funny, I thought you would be very proud of what your husband managed to do, since, now, the hearing will not happen again... Otherwise to be, of course..." she lifted her eyes in Charlie's direction, wickedly speculative "That you don't know what he did...“What are you
“I asked…” Charlie snarled again, looking more furious and hurt than Morgan had ever seen her. “Whether that's true or not! “ That… That was decided today…” he rambled on feeling completely bewildered as he stared at the court summons in his hands, as Hiroshi hadn't even had time to print a copy for him yet “How could you have… . " So it is true? “ Charlie gasped, disgusted “Did you really file a lawsuit behind my back? So that I wouldn't know when my money was available?! " What? “ Morgan gasped, alarmed. “No! It wasn't like that, Charlie. Please let me explain... “Explain what, Morgan? “ Charlie screamed and, despite being visibly furious, he could see the unshed tears glistening in her brown eyes, due to the moonlight streaming through the office windows “ That even after all the times I asked you to trust in me, to treat me as an equal and stop acting like I'm a kid who doesn't need to know about the things you do, even when they involve me... Did you still do that? “ she point
“ Do you really want to know why? “ He gulped, unable to stop himself from giving a shaky smile. “It's because, Charlotte Foster, I love you. “Her face became expressionless at the same moment, but Morgan didn't let himself be cowed. “I've been in love since we met. And I've been in love from the moment you showed up in that damn little dress that didn't cover anything on your 18th birthday. I've spent the last two years hurting and loving and wanting all the time, but doing nothing because I never believed I deserved you. To be honest, I'm still not sure I believe it.“You…” Charlie swallowed hard and he realized that the expressionless expression on his face was a product of shock. “You what?“I love you, Charlie. “ he repeated again, feeling that, now he had finally gotten it out of his chest, he would have to spend the rest of his life repeating that phrase, even if she didn't want to “And you're right. I made no secret of the fact that I could get all your father's money and end
“Don't even think about doing this, Samantha…” Charlie heard Morgan growl, still hidden behind his back.“You missed a great opportunity, you know, Morgan? “ Samantha said casually, as if they were talking over afternoon tea. “You would have been my first choice for second husband. And he would have lived a lot longer than Anthony, you bet, since at least he's not a decrepit old Viagra addict and doesn't squander every penny he earns. But, no…" she sighed, disgusted "You chose to be a pervert who likes teenagers and marry her…" Samantha sneered, tilting her head so she could face Charlie…And she felt her whole body go cold as she realized that her former stepmother was holding a gun, which at that moment was pointed exactly at Morgan's chest."Samantha…" Charlie gasped, feeling a chill run down her spine, threatening to make her swoon, but Morgan was quicker, moving to her side to hide her from the other woman's gaze once more.“Why, let your little wife speak, Morgan…” Samantha smil
“Do you really think so, Morgan? “ she purred, playing with her cleavage already almost completely open “ I think you are so controlled… I bet you could resist me for years and years. So I think it would take more than just a dress... " Undoing the ties at the back of her back, she let the fabric slide to the floor, leaving her in just a pair of tiny panties before his smoldering gaze " I think I would need to be naked in front of you…” Closing the small distance between the two of them, she caressed his bare chest “I would need to touch you…” Charlie moved her lips over his teasingly “I would need to kiss you. ..But her words were interrupted when he pulled her into one more eager kiss, digging his fingers into the flesh of her ass without any qualms, making her gasp.“You're wrong, Charlie…” he growled against her lips, his green eyes almost completely black with desire “You just need to exist. But do not worry. You're about to find out exactly what I'm talking about...Before Char
"Something tells me so..." Wanting to tease him a little more, she rose on tiptoe to overcome the several inches of difference in height between the two of them, pretending to kiss him on the mouth, but deflecting to his side. cheek at the last second, pressing her lips there chastely like she used to when she was younger “But if I can make a special request, I want you to teach me how to make your family's special cupcakes! “ she asked moving away from him with the feeling of long duty when noticing the frustrated and longing expression on his face." Your wish is an order. “He grunted, moving to the area of the worktop where the ingredients were and motioning for her to stand beside it. “First, we have to mix the cocoa powder with the oil, eggs and sugar. “ he explained, picking up a new bowl to put everything in it.“Can I move? “ she offered, sticking her side to his, when she saw him reach a nearby fuê." At ease..." he took a step back instead of passing the bowl to her, indicat
“Be nice to Aunt Vivian, okay? Charlie asked his children, making sure their scarves were securely wrapped around their necks, before they got into their godmother's car.“Okay, Mom. “ Patrick immediately agreed, visibly excited to spend the entire night playing video games, as Vivian always allowed.“What do you and Dad need to do alone on your wedding anniversaries that you can't do with us? “Very unlike her brother, Poppy huffed, crossing her arms over her chest suspiciously.Narrowing his eyes a little in the direction of that stubborn little girl, Charlie snorted when he heard Vivian having a fit of laughter inside the car. She hated to admit it, but even though she was still 9 years old and the carbon image of her father physically, Poppy had inherited her entire personality, which most of the time was a source of pure pride for Charlie, when she saw her smart and smart little girl. determined in action... But at times like this, when she just wanted to have a moment alone with
In a very short time, the bathroom had already been taken over by Sawyer's furious growls and meows, who was trying at all costs to escape the water from the bathtub and the comb that Morgan ran along the length of his fur, throwing more and more fleas into the water at every turn. new pass.“ I really need to talk to Charlie about the stray dogs and cats that are roaming the complex... “ Morgan panted slightly, trying to keep the little beast in her hands under control “ If, even taking medicine every month, you managed to get infested like this way walking around, then those who live on the street must be in a serious situation..." Daddy? “ Poppy's scared voice interrupted him and he turned his head to see his children in the bathroom doorway, fearful “What are you doing with Sawyer?“It's okay, honey. “ He soothed her, moving a little to escape the slash Sawyer had nearly landed on his face, though there wasn't much he could do about his already torn arms. “What happened is, Sawye
" And now we put the frozen peanut butter inside the dough..." Morgan instructed his children, helping them to sink the peanut butter balls into the chocolate dough with their little fingers " And no sticking the licked finger of Get back in the dough, Poppy. “ he warned his daughter, without even looking in her direction “I'm watching you.Hearing her little girl's characteristic snort, the same one that made her sound even more like her mother. Stifling a laugh, he finished helping Patrick finish the cupcakes, moving in time to catch his sister in the air, at the same moment that she had just jumped onto the stool he had positioned below the counter, so that they could could cook together with him." Daddy! “ Poppy complained, struggling in his arms as hard as her tiny five year old body would allow. “I can get off the bench by myself!“But not without getting hurt. “ he stole a kiss on her cheek, making her huff again, before sitting her down in one of the chairs at the dining tabl
“ Samantha, for God's sake! “ Anthony growled under his breath, although everyone could hear him clearly “ Apologize at once or you will be thrown out of this house!"Charlotte…" she began, her expression contorted with rage as if she was straining to say those words "I'm sorry…" Whereby? Charlie raised an eyebrow in her direction, seeming to be enjoying the moment deeply.“For being rude, honey. “ Samantha opened a big forced smile “ I promise that this will never happen again, from now on.“ That's true, because I'll make sure you don't! “ Morgan swore, determined “ Now get out of here! I want to speak with Charlotte alone!“Mr. Sullivan, she's still my daughter... " Anthony looked like he wanted to protest, but his scared voice made that sentence absolutely pathetic.“The same daughter you were mistreating a moment ago! “ Morgan snarled, making him flinch immediately “Now get out!“Of course, Mr. Sullivan... " Samantha nodded, her blue eyes cold and angry " Why wouldn't we, as par
Morgan didn't know why he was there. Or rather, the truth was, he shouldn't be there. And that in every sense.There was a lot of work to be done and a lot of paperwork to be signed in his office, like every other day of the year... But still, perhaps for the first time in his life, he had found it difficult to concentrate. That's because the image of Charlotte Manson jumping into a fountain across from him the day before wouldn't leave his mind. The more rational side of him tried to argue that it was just because she was a poor young girl with clearly terrible parents that she couldn't stand up for herself and needed help. Therefore, as soon as he finished work, he could visit her in the most proper way possible, like any normal person would. But not.Instead, he had left the office early for the first time in years "maybe, again, for the first time in his life", just so he could see Charlie again and get rid of that nagging feeling that had been plaguing his chest all morning. Whic
All the books and scientific articles Morgan had read about babies during Charlie's pregnancy said that in order for her son to sleep well, it was important to create a calm and quiet environment at nap time. However, his wife wasn't very good at it.“You spend the whole day soiling your diaper and throwing up…” he heard her play inside the suite's bathroom, with the sounds of wet kisses filling the room “How can you smell so good?Hearing her daughter's contented cackle, Morgan couldn't help but smile, even though she knew all that fussing would make it take Poppy much longer to fall asleep. But, well, she was Charlie's daughter, so obviously she wasn't a simple bottle, a dark room and a little white noise that would magically dampen the infinite energy she had inside her.Hearing his son give a long yawn, Morgan turned his attention to Patrick who, after a relaxing bath and having changed into his pajamas, was clearly ready for bed, very different from his twin sister. Feeling his h
"Well...that depends..." he commented, shrugging." Like this? She raised an eyebrow, confused.“ It depends on whether you like it or not. “Morgan smiled, stroking her cheek." What? “ Charlie gasped, shocked “You mean...?“ Over the past few months, I've thought a lot about what you've told me about your dream of raising your own pets, beyond the shelter animals. But it would be a bit difficult to do that in an apartment. “ he said, making her eyes widen even more “ So I decided it would be a good idea to look for a new home for us: a spacious house where you can welcome as many animals as you want and make our family even bigger. “ Morgan approached her, biting her cheek to stop herself from laughing at her stunned expression. “And this was the house that I thought most fit what you had described to me. So what do you think? Should we look a little further or could this place become our new home? I particularly think Matilda would love to be able to run around without having so man
