[ Tristan ]

“Tristan, in last sixty years, I have met many people and I know their nature. By judging your expressions and your tone, I can tell that you want to say something more. Can you enlighten me?” Grandpa again put on his glasses and rounded his way towards the huge French window with his glass of whiskey.

“I think you judged me right.” I smiled dryly, “Yes, I have to say a lot but I don’t know from where to start.”

He raised his brows, “May I know the context?” He asked.

“Yes, you do actually, Grandpa.” I said settling myself comfortably on the chair and poured some drink for myself because I needed some guts to strike our conversation.

“I thought you’d not be drinking?” He eyed my glass.

“It’d be rude if I don’t join you, Grandpa.” I replied and sipped my drink.

“Help yourself, young man. I’d love to take you to the old vinery where this particular whiskey is aged. I have been buying it from the seller for last five decades.” He said.

“You love perfection in everything, don’

    [ Claire ]“Hey.” I greeted my husband who walked into our house, looking tired yet he greeted me with a smile.“Hey, what took you so late?” I asked him and he showed me a paper bag.“I went to see your grandparents and she has packed this amazing meat for you and Travis.” He said and I took the bag from him. A smile crept on my lips. He not only cares for me but also for my family.“You didn’t tell me that you wanted to visit my grandparents. Anyways, go and fresh up, I’ll join you in some time. We already have our dinner but we’ll have it in the lunch tomorrow.” I said and went into the kitchen to put the food in the fridge. I didn’t know but I had a deep feeling that Tristan was off.Fetching a glass of water, I made my way to our room. He was sitting on the edge of the bed with his head between his palms. He hadn’t changed his clothes yet. I put the glass down on the table and walked up to him.“Hey, you are still here? Are you feeling unwell?” I asked him placing my hand gently

    [ Claire ]“Are you sure, Mam? I am sorry but Director Sir isn’t in the favour of sealing the deal with Hui Song Company and you want me to invite them for a brunch?” Miss Kim was surprised when I told her to start the negotiation with the Hui Song company. I couldn’t sleep throughout the night in the same dilemma. Tristan’s words kept ringing into my ear and with the dawn, I made up my mind.I am going to join hands with Hui Song Company who will help us to step our foot in the Asian countries where I see an ocean of opportunities. I’d try to make Grandpa understand later. We might have opposite opinion but we both want growth of our company.“Ma’am? You are again zoned out.” Miss Kim snaped me out of my thoughts.“Yes, Miss Kim, I want you to send my message to Mr. Choi Jun. I am looking forward to meet them today for a late lunch and I hope we’d bag the deal before our competitors.” I told her with a confident smile.“Okay, Ma’am, if you’re saying, I’ll pass your message to them and

    [ Claire ]I took a deep breath and knocked at the dark wooden door and waited patiently to be called in. I felt nervous and tingles in my stomach as for the first time I took a decision without taking grandpa into confidence or discussing the pros and cons because I am really optimistic about this step and I know I am doing nothing wrong.The door opened and my grandfather’s assistant came out and gave me a nod of permission to go inside. I took a deep breath and entered inside. The door was closed behind me. Grandpa was standing at the window, his back was facing me so I couldn’t read his face.“Good afternoon, Sir.” I greeted him professionally as he was my superior at work place and I prefer to maintain the workplace environment.“Miss Claire, I was expecting you here ten minutes ago.” He slightly craned his neck to remind me with his gesture that he is a punctual man.“I am sorry, Sir. I received a very important call which couldn’t be ignored.” I lowered my head and apologised s

    [ Claire ]“Claire, what’s bothering you? I have been observing you since you came back home but I didn’t ask you back then as Travis was with us. You told me that the meeting went well. Did something happen at office?” Tristan’s gentle voice forced me to tear my eyes from the draft of some pending reports that I was reading.I looked at his side, he was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting keenly for my answer. I took off my reading glasses and shut my laptop.“The deal is sealed, only the legal formalities are yet to be done.” I answered his first question but swallowed my rest of the words because I didn’t want Tristan to dwell into my problems.A smile spread on his lips and he grabbed my hand, “I am happy for you, Claire and I feel really proud to see how bravely you are facing every challenge. Just remember I am always here for you whenever you need me.” He said and kissed my palm.I felt peace at heart listening to his words.“I know you are always there for me. Thanks, Tris

    [ Claire ]His captivating eyes looked down at me and I found myself losing into them. I felt I have known him from eternity knew in the moment that our souls are one since the moment we met, I don’t need to remember my memories to measure the depth of our bond.“Ahh, fuck!” I cried as he plunged harder with each stroke. He sank deeper inside me while I laid under him, my hands clutching his shoulders and legs locked around his hips as he drove us in the heaven of pleasure. He was merciless with his thrusts as he promised me earlier, with each thrust he sank more deeper into my depth.“I told you that I am going to make this night unforgettable for you.” He huffed out, his sweaty skin was glistening in the dim light. The slaps of our skins against each other was obscene.“I am..am..close.” I breathed out.“Come with me.” He commanded me and changed our positions. Now, I was above him. I placed my hands on his chest for support as no energy was left in my body.“Fuck me, my love.” He s

    [ Tristan ]“Alicia, I have found a lawyer for you, she’s best in domestic violence cases and I am sure that she’ll help you to get rid of that despicable man in a legal way.” I told my friend as we sipped our coffee. Claire was still sleeping, she could be late for office but I want her to not exert herself so I let her sleep for a while.She looked at me, her pupils reflecting confusion.“You found a lawyer for me? Means you want me to drag Ryan in the court? Do you believe that he’d grant my freedom easily?” She asked me multiple questions and they were logical.I placed my cup on the table and turned to face her, it was going to be a long conversation and I want her to be prepared for her own future’s sake.“He has to, Alicia. We won’t leave any choice for him. He has made you and your son suffer. Don’t you want a stable life for your son? He needs a mother like you and a life far from the toxicity of Ryan Bale. The boy lived in fear, the trauma is deep and if you don’t want him t

    [ Claire ]“I must say you impressed me, love.” Tristan said with a hint of amusement, whom I took on our date.“You’re welcome, Mr. Pierce. I thought this place would be an ideal location for our evening and the owner is Miss Kim’s son. He opened this place recently. He specially requested me to come here so his restaurant can get publicity.” I told him.“So, you’re going to post our date’s pictures on social media?” He narrowed his eyes on me.“I think the world should know about our relationship. I don’t think keeping it very private is necessary. We are married not dating.” I answered.He only smiled in response and pulled the chair for me. We were on the roof top, the table was under a large tree’s shadow which was decorated with fairy lights.“This place is really beautiful. The young man has a good sense of business. The restaurant will attract the young generation who wants romantic ambiance.” He said. Meanwhile, the waiter came to serve our drinks and take our order.“Korean

    [ Claire ]“I don’t want to go back home.” I pouted as we strolled on the streets, it was risky but our guards surrounded us.“But we can’t stroll around like this for long. Our kid is waiting at home.” Tristan said pecking my hand.“Hmm, I want to spend some time with him before we call it a night.” I said. Everything feels like a dream. I finally managed to confess my love for him and his reaction was priceless. I know he won’t leave my side forever.“Let’s go back to our car. We’ll buy some burgers and fries for the kids.” He said and we made our way back to the restaurant. Tristan was holding my hand protectively.We bought the burgers and fries from a food truck before moving towards our car when my phone rang and I asked Tristan to wait. The caller id showed my grandparents’ landline number. My heart leaped, I wasted no time in swiping the green button. After the sour encounter with grandpa at office, I thought it was from him.“Hello, Grandma?”“No, Ma’am, I am Cindy, the house

  • I Married A CEO Dad   Epilogue

    [ Alicia ]Three years, it has been three years since I tied the knot with the love of my life. It was a simple court marriage first but I didn’t imagine that Caleb planned a real wedding for us when I got discharged from the hospital. It was again a private ceremony since I don’t like loudness and wastage of money but we did invite people close to us and the number of guests reached to two hundred.Life could be no better than this. Caleb is a dotted husband and father to Alex and our one year old twins; Clarissa and Aaron. When we became pregnant, our happiness had no bound, he treated me like a queen and my son was a step ahead of his father. They cried when they found out that I carrying twins.Clarissa is the apple of everyone’s eye. Her father and elder brother are super protective of her. Sometimes, I feel jealous of my own daughter as she wraps her father around her little finger.Today’s our third anniversary. Ryan Bale died due to liver decease. Mrs. Jones’ mental state wors

    [ Alicia ]“What happened to Mrs. Jones?” I asked the siblings and the bitterness on their face told that it wasn’t a good news.“Caleb, I think you shoulder answer this because that woman’s mention is driving me nuts.” Claire said with disdain.Caleb pinched the bridge of his nose, he also looked displeased but my curiosity hiked up.“Why aren’t you both telling me anything? Trust me, I am fine.” I assured them, I thought they were worried for me.“She’s in mental asylum. The doctors found out that she was mentally disturbed and she needed urgent medical supervision. Leaving her with other people might be harmful for both her and others like she had done to you in the fit of her anger. She is becoming violent day by day.” Caleb answered my question and I was quiet for a moment.“She didn’t deserve all this but nothing is in our hands. I hope she recovers soon.” I said since I held no hard feelings for her.“Ali, you can’t be this kind, people will take advantage of your kindness. Som

    [ Alicia ]I woke up with dull pain in my head and I found myself in the hospital, I expected it when I recalled how I landed here. Mrs. Jones wanted to kill me but I survived. The doctor came and examined me, they said that I am lucky to have a husband who never my side even for a second.My eyes were impatiently glued on the door. I was waiting for my loved ones to walk in. I couldn’t pay attention to what the nurse was saying to me and then, the door pushed open and walked inside my husband with our son. The gleam and relief on their tired faces were the proofs how much they suffered when I was out.“Hey, love.” Caleb said in a whisper.My heart raced when I heard his smooth voice though he sounded tired.“Hey, handsome.” I greeted him.“I’ll give you two space. Mr. Jones I hope you’re breathing normally now.” The nurse joked and walked out.“Mom, how are you?” Alex asked me, he wanted to jump out of his father’s grip but Caleb held him in place.“I am feeling recharged after seein

    [ Caleb ] The night felt like the longest. I couldn’t blink my eyes for a second even though they were burning due to lack of sleep. I had this fear inside me if I sleep and she wakes up then I won’t be by her side and she couldn’t press the bell by herself. But finally, my eyes gave in around four in the morning. I slept on a sitting position beside her bed so she could call me if she wakes up.I was woken up by a gentle tap on my shoulder and I slowly opened my eyes, it was a nurse who gave me a polite smile. I looked at Alicia, she was still sleeping and now my heart began to sink, it has been fifteen hours since she’s unconscious.“Mr. Jones, please go and fresh up till I am here with your wife. The doctor will take a round in next thirty minutes, only he can speculate when your wife will gain her senses.” The nurse said as if she read my dilemma.I wasn’t in a mood to leave but the nurse was right, I couldn’t help either if I stay. I stood up and stretched my stiff muscles and r

    [ Caleb ]Every passing minute felt like eternity to me as I waited outside the operating room. My Alicia was fighting for her life while doctors are doing their best to save her. I closed my eyes and prayed to the God to save my wife. She had suffered a lot in her life and when I promised her that I won’t let any pain touch her, my own mother tried to kill her just because she dared to love me.Never in my wildest dream I imagined my mother to take such deadly step. She followed my father and grandfather’s path. She tried killing an innocent for her so called perception about my wife.“Caleb, please have this or you’ll fall sick yourself.” Tristan’s voice forced me to look up at my friend. He was holding a cup of coffee and I shook my head in refusal.“I could save her, Tristan. You warned me, my house staff warned me about her violent behaviour but I didn’t confront her first and busied myself when she got the chance and hurt Alicia. My wife asked me to give her a chance and how she

    [ Alicia ] The next day, we were ready to leave for our house. When Alex woke up in the morning, he came running into our room and jumped on us. He was over the moon after seeing us. We cuddled with him, I couldn’t get enough of him.“Mom, I missed you and Dad but I am a big boy. I did all my work.” Alex told me proudly, he was the only one who kept me occupied or else, my mind was going back to Mrs. Jones.Caleb was lost in his own thoughts. I gave him space since it was the hardest part for him. He had to deal with his own mother and probably he had to make a tough decision.“I know my big boy.” I pinched his nose and hugged him close to my heart.Soon we reached at our home, it gave me peace to look at the home we built. Caleb picked Alex from me and I stepped down. Our guards and house staff greeted us at the entrance, they looked relieved.“How are you all?” I asked them.“Trust us, Ma’am, we would have gone crazy if you didn’t come back today. Mrs. Jones is driving us crazy wit

    [ Alicia ]I stirred in my sleep and immediately a smile stretched on my lips when I saw my husband sleeping like a baby on my chest, his soft breath was falling on my bare breasts, sending a ticklish sensation on my skin. I caressed his hairs and kissed his forehead, these seven days were the best days of my life. We explored almost every famous part of the country, currently we were in a hotel’s suite since we had an early morning flight back to our home.I left the cottage at the island with heavy heart because we made the most beautiful memories of our lives there. He made love to me in every corner of the cottage. He was serious when he said he’d have me whenever he wishes. He made love to me like a mad man.“Wake up, sleepy head. We have to head back home.” I slowly tried to wake him up.He stirred but didn’t wake up, “Please, two minutes, just stay like this.” He groaned and snuggled his head more into my chest and smiled on his childish act.“I won’t mind you having here with

    [ Alicia ]Caleb’s hands slowly removed my robe off my body and his eyes darkened when his eyes landed on my body, his hands froze on my forearms.“Ali, what is this?” He asked me, his heavy voice was the proof that my appearance had an effect on him.“I though it’s your favourite colour.” I said and blushed, it was the lingerie that Claire forced me to buy. The maroon colour in lacy fabric, barely covering any body part was more appealing for the eyes of a man.“It is but I didn’t know I would love it the most on you.” His lips curved upward as he roamed his lust filled eyes on my body, scanning each part of my skin. I felt my cheeks heating up, his gaze was intense.“I’ll have the pleasure of fucking you with this lingerie on your body. You have no idea how much it has turned me on.” He said, his thick was said it all.He pulled me on his lap so we could sit on a straddling position, our cores were touching, I felt his growing bulge where I needed him the most.“Do you feel it, baby

    [ Alicia ]“What are we doing here, Caleb? We can’t see the sea in the darkness.” I chuckled when mu husband asked me to join him for a short walk after we reached back at our cottage and changed.“I have something for you, love but first I want you to close your eyes.” He said.“Why have I a feeling that you want to give me a surprise?” I narrowed my eyes but I was excited from inside. Whatever he does for me, it’s always special, even the smaller gestures.“Yes, there’s a gift for you but it’s also a surprise, now stop asking and close your eyes.” He said and I closed my eyes because I couldn’t wait for my surprise.In a few moments, I felt something cold around my neck, metal exactly and I guessed it was a chain or necklace. He made me wear a necklace and then he kissed my neck. I touched it to feel the design.“You can open your eyes now, love.” He said and I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the piece of jewelry. My smile vanished and my jaws dropped in shock.“Cal…Caleb, how d
