Learning To Love Again With My Boss Are you starting to date someone?
Author’s pov When Dave appeared in my office, I felt torn between dismissing him and granting him the few minutes he had requested. Did he truly deserve such a favor? Nevertheless, my curiosity got the better of me—I wanted to know what he had to say. Just a few minutes? It wouldn't make much of a difference. It wasn't like the past when he attempted to blackmail me for refusing to go out for a drink with him. "You said a few minutes?" I asked him, contemplating my options during the brief seconds he stood there waiting for my response. "Yes, just a few minutes, ma'am," he added the "ma'am" unintentionally. It was evident that he was on the verge of breaking down, but I remained unaffected. "Go ahead," I said, diverting my eyes from the computer screen, intending to occupy those few minutes by browsing through one of my social media accounts. "Amber, it's unfortunate that we both ended up like this..."Suddenly, I burst into laughter upon seeing a post online. He paused, ass
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Why so happy?
Anita's pov I couldn't help but laugh every time I remembered what James was saying to himself in his car. Loving someone can be enchanting. I've never felt such a strong connection with the opposite sex before. No man has ever given me those butterfly feelings in my stomach. It means that all this time, when he came to my office to deliver a message for his boss, he was bottling up his emotions. What was holding him back from telling me all this time? But now is the perfect moment, just when my parents want me to find a partner. This isn't about fulfilling my parents' wishes; it's about my own feelings at this very moment. I believe I'm already in love with James. If I weren't in love with him, why would I keep going back to his online profile to look at his pictures? It turned out he wasn't someone who posted a lot of pictures, but the few that were there captivated me. Has he cast a spell on me? Why am I delaying everything I do because I'm thinking of him? In fact, I'm wishing f
Learning To Love Again With My Boss From which family
Anita's pov Just looking into my eyes was enough for me to say yes to him. His touch amplified every part of my being. When he spoke these words, I felt a surge of arousal. "Anita, I've reached a point where I can no longer keep my feelings for you to myself. Since the moment I saw you in your office, I saw a reflection of myself in you. The more I saw you, the more I realized the intoxicating power of love. I couldn't think of anything without your thoughts interrupting me. Anita, I've already fallen in love with you even before expressing it..." As he spoke, I focused on his mouth. My fingers and toes began to tingle, and my whole body responded emotionally. Perhaps he would kiss me right there in the coffee shop, and I would gladly reciprocate. "I love you, Anita," he said, kissing the back of my hand. It was a wonderful sensation, and as a woman, I couldn't help but feel a bit insecure. I questioned him as if I were interviewing a job applicant in my office, and I suddenl
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Pleading for Dave
Amber's pov I was under the running shower when my phone rang. The sound of the running water prevented me from the sound of the phone. When I later came out, nothing first drew my attention to my phone. I was sitting on my made up chair and I was facing the mirror placed against the wall. Adrian was with James watching a live soccer match and I do observe that Adrian was a favorite of football and he loves watching it with others. I guess the game was more enjoyable when it was being watched with others. I was midway to finish my light make-up because it was already evening, that was when the ringing of my phone on the bed drew my attention. I stood up and it was my grandmother who was calling me. “Hi Grandma,” I took the phone to where I was sitting and combing my hair. The entire love of my parents and because they were no longer alive, I had poured all of them on my grandmother. “So, how was your day?” “It was so cool.” “What happened that I called you twice and you did
Learning To Love Again With My Boss That man would have been your dad.
Author's pov “I have crucially found out who her boyfriend is, a common assistant. This assistant is not his administrative assistant at his office. As for me, James is one of Adrian's bodyguards.” Said Anita's dad as he was furious as he was speaking. Her mom was sitting down there and she wasn't talking. It's been over ten minutes that only her dad was complaining. “What are we going to do? Anita is our heir. Should we allow that low class human that calls himself our daughter's boyfriend to get married to her?” “Don't even think about that. Even dating Anita irritates me and talks less of getting married to her.” “Despite I told her not to leave the house, she left to see James. Look at the time. It's almost 7pm. The status of James is not good for our reputation,” her mom said. “She is your daughter and you know how to talk to her. You better call her phone,” her dad said. Her mom took her phone and dialed Anita's number. It rang and rang, but she didn't pick up her ca
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Surprise party
Author’s pov Adrian and Amber were still on the bed wrapped with their blanket as his phone started ringing. He stretched his hand to take his phone. When he saw that it was his mother that was calling, he adjusted himself and put his two feet on the floor. His mom has not called him as early as this before. “Mom, goodmorning, how was your night?” “I am at home.” She said with a lingering laughter in her voice. “Which home? Wait, wait, please, not what I am thinking.” Adrian lovely raised his voice. “I guess it’s what you are thinking.” “Why? I told you that when you are coming, call me and I will join dad and welcome you at the airport. Why did you do this to me?” “I am angry. I’m really angry. You have scattered my plans.” “What plans? I too have plans for you. Can you come over here?” She said hilariously. “No.” He replied coldly. “I’m sorry, I bet you, you will be astounded by what I will tell you and what you will see.” “Mum, there is no joy more than welc
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Do you want to divide your son's house?
Author’s pov Adrian's mother, Flora, was a formidable lady. Her imposing size and flamboyant jewelry, worth a fortune, commanded attention. Her shifting expressions sent a chill down Amber's spine. She had only seen her smiling pictures and not what she was seeing right now and this wasn't what she'd expected. Taking Adrian's hand, his mom led him into her room. "Mum, why didn't you tell me about your mission in France? I thought you went there for a vacation," he asked, watching her close the door. "Why on earth would you bring home such a common girl? Do you want to bring shame on our family?" Flora moved closer, her hand still clasped in his, trying to sway his decision. "Mum, there's nothing wrong with Amber..." "Amber who? What's her family name? In fact..." she touched her chest, a sigh of relief escaping her lips. She sat down on her luxurious bed and looked up at Adrian. "Do you know you made me faint?" she sighed. "I thought Charlton's daughter was your girlfriend
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Fearing what is going to happen
I felt incredibly embarrassed as I stood there, expecting someone who I thought would be the perfect mother-in-law. I entered Morgan's house with a practiced smile that I had secretly rehearsed. Despite all my efforts, I had a strange feeling about everything. It all started when Adrian refused to let me talk to his mom on the phone. I tried to dismiss my fears when he mentioned preparing a surprise for his mom. However, our plans to surprise her at the airport failed when she called to say that she was already home. All of our plans fell apart. I felt so humiliated when she showed more acceptance towards James' girlfriend than me. Was it because James' girlfriend’s parents were worthy? I could hear her voice from her room; it seemed they hadn't closed the door. It wasn't just me who heard her disapproving comments about me; even her maids and Anita did. I wanted to disappear into the ground. I couldn't force a smile anymore. I wanted to leave, but I had to wait for Adrian, who

Learning To Love Again With My Boss Adrian and Amber got married
The hall was thick with tension as Mrs Morgan’s voice shook, her emotions barely in check. She stared at Adrian, her face full of confusion and frustration.“What kind of confession is this, on your wedding day? People are waiting!” Her voice was sharp, but beneath the anger was fear—fear of what was coming next.Adrian’s expression was cold and unyielding. He didn’t react as the guests whispered, casting curious and judgemental glances."Amber and I... we’re not blood-related." His voice cut through the murmurs, and the crowd instantly fell silent. He turned to his mother, the woman he had always trusted. "Who did you sleep with to have me?"Gasps rippled through the hall, and Mrs Morgan’s face turned pale as if all life had left her."Me?" She laughed, but it was hollow, full of disbelief. "You’re mad, Adrian! Is this your twisted confession?"Before she could continue, Adrian handed her an envelope, his fingers trembling slightly. "This is the DNA test. I ran it several times."Her
Learning To Love Again With My Boss I have a confession
Amber's pov Did Adrian just say in his last statement that he will be spending a night with me here alone at the hotel? What does he want? He has so much emotion for me. Can't he control it? Despite suppressing my emotions for him, I still love him. I was still holding my phone when it rang again and it was Adrian. “Hello…” I said. “I'm still waiting for your address. I kept my promise. What are you waiting for? I'm ready to enter my car and drive out of the house. At this point, I was having one question in mind to ask him, but my tongue was too heavy to say it. “Are you coming here to…?” I stopped and thankfully he knew what I meant and he started laughing. “Your voice turned me on. It's not a matter of coming there or holding your precious fingers. I have something to tell you. We need to talk. I miss you and I want to have a nice time with my sister. Whatever angle you want it to be, I will be. But there is something I will never do, I will never force you against
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Agreement and promise
Author’s pov Two white cars suddenly stopped in front of Amber’s grandma’s house and it was in the evening. The doors of the car at the back opened and Mrs Morgan and her friend, Merit’s mom came out of the car after the guards had opened the doors for them. They walked majestical towards the front door and one of the men guarding them knocked on the door. The first person that came out to open the door was a lady, one of those ladies that assisted Amber’s grandma. “Are you related to Amber?” Mrs Morgan asked with a cruel voice, putting great fear into the young lady. “No, I am here to do some housekeeping.” “Where is Amber’s grandma?” This time, it was Nora that asked this question. “She is inside,” she slightly trembled and went inside. They stood at the door post and when Amber’s grandma came out, her age demanded respect and in turn, she welcomed them by saying, “What are my guests doing at the mouth of the door? Please come inside.”Nora wanted to reject the offer of
Learning To Love Again With My Boss I won you, Adrian
Amber's pov Adrian walked up to me while I was in the room. Then he said, “I just received a call from the laboratory and they have informed me that the result is out.” My heart raced as we both stood at the edge of uncertainty. We neither know if it will be positive or negative. The laboratory center we went to was one of the sophisticated centers in the country. They were equipped with modern technologies. So, any test that was done there was often done with different testing techniques. “Will you inform your dad?” I asked as my voice started to crack out of tension. I felt more panicked than anything I have had in my entire life. It drew a line of separation between Adrian and I. I love Adrian and nothing apart from blood related could stop us from being together. “Get dressed, we need to go and collect the result.” Adrian said and kissed my forehead. I went to my wardrobe and by this time, I had already taken my bath. What will I wear? Does this occasion require speci
Learning To Love Again With My Boss The result is out
Author's pov “Flora, when are you going to inform Dora about your new plan?” Nora asked. They were outside, under a well spread white umbrella at Nora's house. “I will tell her once my son gives me a meaningful answer. Since I told her about my plan, he said he would get back to me. I love Dora and I want her to be part of my family.” Nora took a sip from her glass of blue wine and after she carefully placed the cup on the table, he said, “Your husband's infidelity has become a blessing in disguise. If your husband hasn't cheated on you, you wouldn't be able to achieve or say what you are demanding.” Flora shrugged and sighed. “He disappointed me. I could swear that he can't do something like that. If I had listened to my thoughts, I would have found out before now. I saw their closeness and I wondered what was happening. My husband Mut had known that Amber was his daughter. I am thinking he knew about it when he was sick at the hospital.” “Flora, that reminds me, what
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Two days from now
Amber's pov When I held the lab report in my hands and carefully read the result word for word, I was astounded to see that Mr Morgan is my biological father. How come? Is there anything my grandma is hiding from me or my late mom is hiding from me? I didn't know what to think about? This information has thrown me upside down. I didn't know where to place my thoughts. If my grandma knew about it, why had she not told me all this while? Does that mean that Adrian is my half-brother? I came down from the cab and walked into the house and I felt like an ordinary paper that the wind could blow off. “Grandma,” I paused as I saw her picking up her phone call. I was so deep in thought that I didn't pay attention to my grandma's conversation over the phone. “Amber!” She called and I turned my eyes towards her. “Why are you looking at me like this? Has…” “Grandma, do you really know my dad?” “Your dad? You mean your late date?” She asked. “Yes. What about my mom? Do you
Learning To Love Again With My Boss “Am I still your sweetheart or your half sister?”
Author's pov “Why did you lie to me that I will leave here today?” Mrs Morgan said angrily and it was only her friend that was in her room. She had been hostile with her words, and even more angry when she saw Amber. “That was what the doctor said initially.” Then the ringing of Mrs Morgan's phone stopped her friend from speaking. “Your husband is calling you.” “I can't speak to someone that I'm angry at.” Flora said to her friend. “We only have one night to stay at the hospital. It's for your own good. At home in Mr Morgan's house, he was very worried. He had been calling his wife, but she had refused to pick up her call. Mr Morgan was first in his new room downstairs. He had been told by the doctors not to stress himself. So climbing the stairs was seen as stress. He walked out of his room and came to his private sitting room. The first time his eyes saw was the wall clock. “It's about 7pm and my wife has refused to pick up my call. Is there something that everyone is
Learning To Love Again With My Boss I want to speak to my husband
Author's pov When the lab scientist said, “congratulations…” Mrs Morgan's heart raced as she didn't know why he was congratulating her. Does he know why she came to do the paternity test initially? He doesn't know, so when he said congratulations, Mrs Morgan was confused. Instead of saying it verbally at first, the man handed her the result on an envelope. “Congratulations on what?” She could still remember these words as the last moment and when the lab scientist said, “Mr Morgan is the father of your daughter.” Mrs Morgan lost it and she fell unconscious. “Doctor!” Nora, her close friend shouted. The lab scientist and Nora rushed her into one of the wards and they immediately started to resuscitate her. “Flora!” Nora shouted as one of the nurses told her to leave the room. The envelope was in Nora's hands as she came out of the room and stayed outside. “Oh my god, please Flora, you need to wake up. Who will I call now?” She asked herself. “I need to tell…” she pause
Learning To Love Again With My Boss Congratulations on what?
Author's pov “Has she picked up your call?” Merit asked her mum as she came back to the sitting room and her mother’s phone was still in her hand. “Hmmm…I can’t say she has answered me. She only told me she will get back to me.” Mrs Williams raised her face and looked at her daughter, who was putting on a very short skirt and a white top. It was in the evening and through the window, they could see the sun settling down. “How long will she get back to you?” She spoke with so much anger and after pacing the right side of the sitting room, she stopped and stood behind one of the couches. “Why are you looking at me like that?” Her mom asked, as Merit’s anger could be seen all over her body. “If you were very serious with what I told you, you would have expressed your anger towards her. How will she disgrace me in front of Adrian and her girlfriend? It’s so embarrassing.” “Are you sure Mrs Morgan did the things you have told me?” “She cannot deny it.” “When all of this wa
