KIDNAPPED BY THE CEO

Chapter 37

Maria carried on her duties diligently the next day and avoided Adrian like a plague. Since it was very easy for him to trash her after taking advantage of her emotion, she also made sure that they had nothing to talk about.

Last night, she had a long conversation with Veronica who advised her to be on her own. Though she had shipped the both of them, she couldn't ask her to act cheap just to get Adrian's attention.

It was hard for her at first as she tried profusely, asking Veronica why her son treated women like trash. She defended her son and said that it wasn't applied to all women.

There she made a strong decision to mind her business and never allow her emotions to take the better part of her.

She was interrupted from her deep thoughts by a knock on the door. She wondered who it was but asked the person to come in.

Rachel strolled into the office and sat on the chair before her. "Hi, bestie. I've been calling you since last night and you did

Be professional with him," She advised and stood up, "Do you know what else I'll advise you to do?" "What's that?" Maria furrowed her brows. "Get a man, darling. Even if there's nothing serious, just have something that can serve as distraction. It will help you get your mind off that prick," Rachel belittled him and waved her goodbye. "I'll think about it. Thank you so much for coming to see me, I love you," Maria sang and stood up as well to hug her. "I do too, but I'll fight you if I see you crying over that son of a bitch that doesn't treat you with care. Men are all the same though, take Carlos for an example." She laughed and left the office. Maria lowered herself on the desk, digesting everything her friend had said. Getting a man wasn't hard because of her beauty and aura, but she didn't want to be in a relationship that was ju

She scanned the house as the gate opened automatically. She was in awe of the simplicity and uniqueness of the building. It had a beautiful fountain in front of it that she felt like staring at all evening. There were two statues of lions that stood beside it, with several trees which formed a straight pattern to the end of the house she couldn't see. "This place is beautiful. It looks so heavenly," She gushed, temporarily forgetting about her beef with Adrian. "It truly is. My father spent a fortune in building this place and he was very proud when it came out this way," He said, agreeing to Maria's compliment. She nodded and returned to her usual withdrawn self. Adrian noticed it and felt bad but there was nothing he could do about it, so he nudged her to go in with him. He spoke throu

    KIDNAPPED BY THE CEOChapter 40 Adrian wondered how the picture that was taken by the unknown person was taken. It was surprising that someone was interested in spoiling things for him and his girlfriend. "When did I flirt with her?" Adrian interrogated, trying to sound surprised as well. "Are you really asking me that? It's trending all over social media that you were with someone below your class. I wonder what you'd have done if mother wasn't," Victoria ranted. Adrian was getting tired of her ranting and annoying questions. "Stop talking nonsense, Victoria and let's eat, except you want war from me," He threatened and she kept mute immediately. They all knew how stern and intolerant he could be, and she didn't want to incur his wrath. Veronica and her husband left them to argue as much as they wanted to. Though, they were happy that Adrian put her in her place. She had forgotten Adrian's cruelty and talked to him like a child. Victoria sulked and kept hitting her plate with

    Kidnapped By The CEO Chapter 41Maria hadn't been to such a party all her life, not even with Mr Raymond. It was an event for the rich and mighty and if not for Adrian, there wouldn't be any reason for her to be present there. But she had been given the opportunity and she planned to make the most of it. She wore a one shoulder sheath dress that gave her a classy outlook. Her hair was styled in a loose bun with some of the strands sticking out. Adrian had been checking her out since they got to the party. He had admitted severally that she was very beautiful and couldn't stop saying it. He had been mingling with some friends and business colleagues, but he kept his eyes on her while she kept to herself, trying to enjoy the party. A young man walked up to her with glass in his hands. He was good looking and smelt rich, Maria on the other hand ignored him though she planned to use him as a distraction. "Hey beautiful, why are you standing here alone? I thought you came with someon

"I'll go with you, you don't need to embarrass the both of us," She rolled her eyes and snatched her hand back from him. Adrian straightened his jacket and gave Damien a cold stare then walked away. While they were inside the elevator, Adrian decided to start a conversation but Maria kept giving him the cold shoulder. "Even if you don't want to talk to me while we are alone, you'll have to talk to me when we return to the party." He said and the elevator dinged, showing that they had gotten to their elevator. "Don't worry, I know how to act professionally. Work and emotions don't mix, I know that for sure," She said and walked away, swaying her ass unintentionally. The guests were already clapping for the host of the party as he climbed the podium to give a speech. Adrian stood beside her, giv

The force pulling her to him was stronger than her good sense of judgement. She allowed his tongue dive farther into her mouth, and all the sensations she felt went straight to her core which had clenched with need. One hand of his was wrapped around her waist while the other caressed the small of her back. His soft caresses were like flashes of electricity, coursing through her body and then she tore away her lips. "Let's stop this, Adrian. It isn't right," She said, detangling herself from his hold. "Why, Maria?" He asked looking gobsmacked and dazed by the passionate kiss he just had with her. Obviously, he wanted it again regardless of his relationship status and it pissed Maria off because she wanted him badly but she couldn't allow him to go further with her as well. "You are in a relationship, Adrian. How m

She was a virgin and she wasn't ready to give it up until she met the right man, and she wasn't even sure that Adrian was the right person. "You can't, Adrian. Let's not make things more complicated than they already are. If you can't cope with me on this bed, then I'll sleep on the couch so that we can enjoy tonight in peace," She disagreed, taking the blanket over her body. "But, Maria, It's just a kiss. I really want you right now," He continued to plead. "Alright, I'm really getting up. Good night," She said and snatched one of the pillows and headed for the couch. It was quite bigger than the normal size she had in her own house so it was big enough to contain her. "I won't let you sleep on the couch, Maria. It will be very inconveniencing for

He had planned to relax with Maria for some time before they went to the office but Sophia's presence had certainly spoiled their plans. "Yes, darling. Why do you look so surprised to see me? Am I not your fiancé?" She rose up from the chair with her shoulders raised in pride, giving Maria a demeaning look. "I'm happy to see you, it's just that I didn't expect you to come back so soon," Adrian admitted and walked slowly towards her while Maria watched the both of them quietly. She wanted to disappear from their presence at that moment. What she had feared greatly was beginning to manifest and she was very sure that Sophia wouldn't give her a breathing space. "It's my business so I can come back whenever I want to, also, I was informed by a little birdie that someone was about to snatch my man away from me," She snarled and shot Maria
