Laura I stood there without being able to move a single muscle while looking at Jason running on the electric treadmill, but he noticed the presence of someone else in the room and turned around to look at me. I noticed the surprise on his face just seeing me there, and he quickly reduced the speed
"You're wrong, it's my decision. I let you kiss me or nothing happens," I said finally, then he started to realize my real plan, I was there to put an end to all that nonsense. I was there to kill two birds with one stone. "You insane…" he shook his head, not being ready to give up on me. "Come on
Jason I almost couldn't move as I watched Laura practically run out of the mansion, running away from me. My chest rose and fell with pressure, and my heart beat wildly. I staggered across the room, holding on to the sofa, and threw myself onto the floor, lying on my back. "What was that? Fuck…"
"It was wonderful, Terry," I said, smiling like a fool. "We kissed, and it was a kiss that will go down in history." "Woah, so it was that kiss, right?" Terrence seemed excited too. "That kiss, friend. That kiss," I stammered, laying my head on the couch and staring at the ceiling while my though
LauraThe sound of my cell phone ringing scared me so much that I woke up scared, and then I grimaced, feeling the headache and massaging my temples. I had slept with my dress on and everything. I grumbled, picking up my cell phone, which was still calling, and then answered, stretching my neck beca
Laura"My God, what a huge hickey! You guys enjoyed the kiss yesterday, didn't you?" Ava said it mischievously as she looked at the photo of my neck that I had sent her, and I rolled my eyes with a sigh. "It wasn't like that at all, it was just a simple kiss," I lied, shrugging my shoulders to all
Laura To my delight or chagrin, Jason didn't show up at the launch of Nemesis' new clothing line that day. This partly made me relieved because I wasn't going to be all apprehensive about his presence in that place, but that didn't mean that I didn't miss him. We received many important people, c

Gideon POV I was there in the car, and I still couldn't believe that Lindsay was kissing me. After so long yearning for this moment, and suddenly, with a piece of advice from Jason and a day of practicing that advice, there she was, surrendering to me, kissing me with a passion that consumed me fro
Lindsay's POV I didn't know what to expect when I returned to work knowing that Gideon would be my new boss, but I certainly didn't imagine the day would be a whirlwind of emotions. The idea of working alongside my ex-husband didn't seem easy, but I was determined to show that I am professional, ca
Lindsay POV I was in the women's bathroom, watching my reflection in the mirror as I tried to compose myself to face Gideon once again. Seeing him there at the company had already been a surreal surprise, but finding out that he would be my new boss? It had completely disarmed me. I had even yelled
Laura POV I was lying on the dark blue sofa in my office, feeling every nerve in my body tense as if it were about to snap. Sunlight streamed through the windows, but it couldn't dispel the darkness of the day unfolding. The morning had started with Zoey's dismissal, leaving a bitter taste of betra
Lindsay POV I was boiling with anger. Each step I took in Laura's office seemed to echo my frustration. How could she have done this to me? "What the hell was that? What is Gideon Bathory doing here?" It was true that I was screaming somewhat hysterically, but no one could blame me for anything si
Lindsay's POV Seeing my ex-husband there in front of me, as the new director of Hextec, and not only that, but assigning me to be his assistant, was a shock. My heart almost stopped when I realized that my new boss would be Gideon. He had a look that seemed to apologize, but there was also a deter
"I really feel sorry for this unsettling situation," I commented, not knowing what to think. Laura nodded and then rubbed her face as if trying to shake off that bad feeling. "But enough of that. I have something for you." She handed me a stack of documents with trembling hands. "We have a new dire
Lindsay POV "Mommy, are you going to bring me chocolate when you get off work today?" my boy asked me over the phone. I gave a little laugh, loving to hear his voice on the other end of the line. "Yes, my love. Mommy will bring you a giant chocolate," I replied. "Yay! That way I can save some for
