โTake those to the conference room. Those papers are needed for the presentation.โMiss Cindy pointed to the stack of folders on the table. Today was the quarterly report, and the board meeting would be held in the conference room. All the shareholders and major investors would be attending.โAlright, Miss Cindy.โ Bree immediately complied. She picked up the folders, and even though she was struggling to carry them, she did her best not to drop any. Sheโd be in trouble again if that happened.It had been almost two weeks since Bree returned as Jackson's assistant secretary, and in those two weeks, she had yet to be scolded. She had made a few mistakes, but Jackson had only given her a sharp look.Of course, Chelle didn't let that slide. She also noticed that Jackson was no longer scolding Bree. And since her friend had a dirty mind, she bombarded Bree with teasing and jokes. Chelle insisted that Jackson was really into her. No matter how much Breeโs mind denied it, deep down, she hope
While a woman was speaking in front of the shareholders, Bree's mind was elsewhere. It drifted back to the night she got drunk at Spartan. She struggled to recall the events of that evening. She had been intoxicated, which was why parts of her memory were unclear.Her eyes searched for the man named Andrei. Bree swallowed hard when their eyes metโhe was staring at her with a playful smirk on his lips. It was as if he knew something she didnโt. This only made Bree more uneasy. She was certain that this man knew something.It seemed like he was either refusing to speak or someone was stopping him from doing so. Her eyes flew to where the CEO was sitting.Bree silently gasped when she saw how intensely Jackson Samaniego was staring at her. He wasnโt paying attention to the presenter in front. He was busy following her every move, as if he were watching her closely.Bree lowered her gaze to her trembling fingers. She couldnโt meet his eyes. As to why he was staring at her, she had no idea
Bree was pinned against the wall. Her initial reaction was to prevent Jacksonโs body from pressing even closer. She placed both hands on her bossโs broad chest, but it wasnโt enoughโshe could still feel the heat of his body.A delicious electric current ran through her body, traveling straight to her most intimate part. The warmth of Jacksonโs body sent tingling sensations through her entire being.Bree couldnโt help but bite her lower lip to suppress a moan. She wanted to let out a sound because she felt a pleasurable sensation between her legs.Jackson leaned in closer, his breathing heavy, his whole body burning with desire.The feeling of their bodies pressed together was intoxicating. His erection was proof of how much his body enjoyed being near her.Jacksonโs desire ignited even more when he saw Bree biting her lip.He wanted those lips. He wanted that mouth on his body.โPlease, donโt bite your lips, Miss Ocampo. It makes me want to devour them.โBree tilted her head up, locki
"Fuck!" Jackson cursed as he stared at his own reflection in the mirror.He grabbed his already messy hair and pulled it anxiously. He wanted to beat himself up for what had happened in his office earlier.He had lost control and did things he shouldnโt have done. Now, he didnโt know how he would even face Sabrina Ocampo.But it wasnโt because he was afraid or ashamed of what he did that he was angry with himself. His guilt was eating him up like cancer.He knew deep down that he had taken advantage of her innocence. He knew she was inexperienced. The way she responded to him said it all. Her movements and reactions indicated that she had no experience at all.The second reason was that he felt like he had completely betrayed his late wife. He had been so caught up in what he felt for Bree that he hadn't realized he was slowly drifting away from Kathrineโs memory.And lastly, he hated himself most for wanting Bree even more, despite all these realizations."Youโre such a bastard, Sama
Bree stared blankly at the chocolate moist cake on the small plate in front of her. Chelle, who sat across from her, kept talking, but Breeโs attention was elsewhere.They were in the canteen for a snack. It was their break time, and the two had decided to eat there."Hey! Are you even listening to what Iโm saying? You seem out of it, girl. Iโve been noticing this since the other day!"Startled, Bree looked up at her friend. She had no idea what Chelle had been talking about. She was caught off guard by the sudden rise in her friendโs voice.Bree let out a heavy sigh and listlessly lowered her head to the table. She didnโt answer Chelleโs questions."Hey! Whatโs going on with you? You look like an idiot," Chelle said, even smacking Breeโs slumped shoulder."Itโs nothing. Iโm just tired." That had always been Breeโs excuse whenever someone asked why she seemed so down lately.Even Aling Oping had noticed it. But Bree couldnโt say the real reason sheโd been feeling lifeless the past few
โLetโs go later, okay? Please?โChelle pressed her hands together and begged Bree.Bree just shook her head. She had no intention of going because she didnโt want to get drunk. She was sure that if they went to a bar, her friends would pressure her to drink. She was afraid it would happen againโwaking up in an unfamiliar room.Bree shivered at the memory that some stranger had brought her there. She was lucky she hadnโt been taken advantage of.What if it happened again? And this time, she wouldnโt be so lucky?Bree continued typing on her computer. She was encoding the list of guests invited to the companyโs anniversary party.Chelle stomped back to her desk and noisily rearranged her things.Bree couldnโt help but laugh at her friendโs reaction.Chelle was a party girl. Since she was single and had no family around, she could do whatever she wantedโespecially bar hopping.โFine, Iโll go. Itโd be embarrassing to say no to Sir Renz, especially since itโs his birthday.โChelle squealed
Jackson stared at the light brown liquid glistening in his glass. Heโd already lost count of how many rounds of alcohol heโd had, but he still couldnโt feel its effects on his body.Heโd been drinking a lot these past few days. He felt like getting drunk was the only way to escape his so-called problemsโif they could even be called problems.Andrei was being loudโhe was already drunk and flirting with the women they were with. Sebastian was also there, accompanied by Claire, his sister-in-law. They were joined by Maddox, who had just returned from abroad after getting someone pregnant.Jackson closed his eyes. His head was aching. The stress was taking a toll on his body. Alcohol and stress were a terrible combination for him.โBro, howโs that cute girl? Bree, right?โ Andrei suddenly asked.Jacksonโs eyes snapped open when he heard Breeโs name.Andrei burst out laughing. From the reaction on Jacksonโs face when he mentioned Bree, Andrei immediately knew that the girl had a special pla
Bree felt her body temperature rising. For some unknown reason, Bree loved the way the man she was dancing with was touching her. It was like her sanity left her, and all she could think about was how she wanted someone to touch her.Her body was sweating, but Bree didn't stop swaying to the loud music.The man behind her was Renz. He was dancing behind Bree while boldly touching her body. Her dress gave access to his sinful hands.From her waist, his hands moved up to her ample breasts.Renz was overjoyed that he finally had the chance to touch Bree. He had wanted her for a long time, but he couldn't make a move. He wanted her so much. Now, what he had wanted for so long was about to happen, he was going to claim her completely. And once that happened, she would be his.Renz cupped her breasts and gave them a little squeeze. He pulled her closer to his body and pressed his hard manhood against her. He had been hard for a while now. Bree's revealing dress made it all worse."Did you f
Jackson stilled and just let himself stare at the naked beauty in front of him. It took him all his self-control not to rush over to Bree and take her roughly.He already had difficulty controlling himself when they were at his office, how much more if he'll see her like this; moaning and begging him to fuck her.Jackson quickly approached the woman on the sofa. Bree is one beautiful woman. Her beauty was unique, and Jackson admitted that he was extremely attracted to her.Her eyes were sparkling and her skin was flushed. Jax had to remind himself every minute that Bree was not her usual self. He shouldn't listen to what she was saying. What came out of her mouth came from the sex drug."Bree. Where the fuck was your dress? Jesus, woman, you're making this hard for me."Jax let out a deep breath to calm himself, especially the monster between his legs. He couldn't guarantee that he could succeed in controlling himself.Jackson took Bree's hand to stop her from playing with her own wom
