Amber's pov

I have never felt this kind of embarrassment before. I stood before those who hated me. Mrs Morgan and Dora took the advantage of Adrian's absence. When Adrian told me that he was about to leave and see his dad, I immediately knew I was in big trouble. It's very obvious, Adrian's mother doesn't love me. She sees me as a gold digger and she uses every opportunity to humiliate me.

Dora was the happiest, she kept smiling and occasionally laughed as I was going out of the house. Mrs Morgan didn't allow me to take a single thing of my own.

“I was told you came here alone, and you were holding a handbag. My son bought everything you are saying you have. My son will never marry you. Never!” She raised her voice at me. All the guards were just looking at me helplessly as Mrs Morgan was following me as I can out of the house.

When I came out of the compound, I went straight to the car I drove here and I was waiting to see if she would come and tell me that it was Adrian

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   Can you hear yourself?

    Author’s pov Adrian raced towards his father's house, his heart pounding with fear. On his way here while in his car, he had gripped his phone, tempted to make some calls about the situation, but his mother's words kept resurfacing, holding him back. As he arrived, he hastily parked the car without bothering to lock the door and hurried inside. "Good morning, sir," some of the guards greeted him, but he disregarded them and proceeded indoors. He made his way to his father's sitting room, only to find it empty. It was as he expected, so he hurried to his father's bedroom, but his father was nowhere to be found. Exiting the room, he encountered one of the guards near the dining room. "Where is my dad, and which hospital have they taken him to?" he asked, but the guard was shocked, and he was unable to respond quickly due to the shock caused by Adrian's words. "Are you deaf?" Adrian raised his voice. "Sir, your father is upstairs with a friend." "Are you insane? Do you think I'

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   Wrong Message

    Author's pov Dora took all her clothes in her luggage and she could hear Mrs Morgan and Adrian exchanging words in the sitting room. “I am the cause of all those commotion in Adrian's house,” she thought as she was almost done. “If I should stay here any longer, Adrian might embarrass me.” When she heard some footsteps, she quickly stopped what she was doing. Mrs Morgan had stood in front of her some minutes ago, stopping her from packing her things. Dora has given up on this fight. She doesn't want to fight for her place in Adrian's life. Adrian in question doesn't love her again. “What have I done that Adrian hates me so much?” She asked herself. When she didn't hear the footsteps again, she finally arranged her luggage and came out of the room. On getting to the sitting room, Adrian and her mom were sitting on a separate chair. “Where are you going? How many times have I told you to stay in this house?” “Mrs Morgan, let me go. Adrian has hated me to the point that I fee

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   I don't like Amber

    Author’s pov Mrs Morgan felt a burning sensation all over her body as she could hold back Dora from leaving Adrian’s home. As she reflected on the fact that her only son had left the house to go and meet Amber, she moved around the large sitting room. Her hands were on her back and she was thinking about what to do. “If Adrian had even chosen Anita, the heir to Charlton’s corporations, it would have been better.” She thought and walked up to the wine bar. “Ma, breakfast is ready!” The cook said. “Get out of here,” she shouted. She stood and lost the desire to drink any wine again. Her face was furious. She couldn’t believe seeing that she had lost some large percentage of control over her son that always wanted to please her. Filled with countless thoughts, she collected the glass cup and forgot to take a bottle of wine with her as she walked back to the chair she was sitting down on. “How dare Adrian refuse to listen to me? Never will I accept Amber as the wife of my son.

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   I want us to separate

    Amber's pov If Adrian had truly said he loved me, he would have waited a little longer. I sat on the chair, my shoulders feeling weak emotionally, making it difficult to stand and go to my grandma's room. My mind was filled with thoughts, wondering who had informed Dave about my relationship issues with Adrian. "Is he keeping tabs on me?" I wondered aloud. Who has he paid to gather information about me? I explicitly told him never to come here again. Leaning my head against the chair, my grandma emerged from her room. Her kind of face was not what I love to see when angry. "So, if I don't give you your phone, you won't eat dinner?" she questioned. I remained silent, realizing that if she weren't my grandma, she wouldn't dare try what she just did. She intentionally hid my phone and put it on silent. If I had known, I wouldn't have shared the details of what Adrian's mom did to me. It upset her greatly, and she wanted me to be upset too. With such anger, she hoped to break my

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   In a new place

    Amber's pov Adrian's fingers were the most loving and his lips were the most sensual. His touches felt like ripples through my body. Like a love-struck patient, he gave me a satisfying dose from his very first touch. We kissed our way into a house I had never entered before, and my giggles in the car must have aroused him the more, as he started unbuttoning my top inside the car. He carried me out of the car like a newly wedded bride, and our lips remained locked together. All the doubts my grandmother had shared about our relationship faded away at that moment. The way he carried me made me feel the hardness of his manhood. He dropped me onto the bed and tore my top off, as if it was blocking his view. Removing my bra was effortless. I could see the muscles of his arms rippling under his skin. He kissed me passionately, from my lips to my chin and down to my neck. Why was he so aggressive, as if we had been apart for a long time? Such intense desire might be the result of a long

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   Arrival of Mrs Nora

    Author's pov In the morning around 10:30 am, a Boeing 767 touched down at the airport, carrying 110 passengers, including Mrs. Nora Williams, a close friend of Mrs. Morgan. Mrs. Williams, a woman in her late thirties who took great care of her skin, appeared younger than her years. She was wearing a stylish black gown with a white scarf around her neck and sunglasses covering her eyes.

She had a daughter, Merit, a nineteen-year-old college student. With her was her lawyer, accompanied her and his name was Jasper. Despite receiving 22% of the her late husband’s investments, Mrs. Williams expressed disappointment, feeling she deserved more.

"Mrs. Nora Williams, do you see the outcome of your legal battle with your late husba

  • Learning To Love Again With My Boss   I don't want to see you again

    Author's pov Jasper was carried by Mrs. Williams' presence, striving to reassure her that inheriting 22% of her late husband's investments wasn't a setback or that she had lost her case against her late husband's sons. It took him about three days to persuade her after the case, to consider herself lucky. Being a young, energetic lawyer, he saw handling such a prominent case for a wealthy woman like Mrs. Williams as a privilege, especially since she had invited him. He was keen to maintain their connection, feeling unsettled by her evident unhappiness of getting such a percentage. During those days, he found himself spending more time in her hotel room and even attempted to take her out, secretly hoping for a more permanent role in her life as her lawyer. In the midst of trying to win Nora's approval, Jasper didn't know he had neglected his fiancée. His communication with Anna dwindled to the point where he forgot to inform her of his arrival that day. "As soon as I entered th

    Jasper’s pov With my suitcase in my hand and as I got into my car, I felt I was about to start a new life. All my plans of getting married by the end of the year have landed on a rock. Where will I start from? I have this personality of being too shy to express my feelings to the opposite sex. It all started when I was publicly disgraced when I was in highschool. If I were some men, the millions in my suitcase was enough for me to start kicking my life in the right direction. My two hands were on the steering wheel but I found myself hand shivering. The pumping blood all over my body was at a rush, probably making my eyes blur. There was one thing I needed to do to save my life was to stop the car at the side of the road and wait to see what next happened to my body system. I gradually stopped the car and parked at the side of the road. Upon removing my seatbelt, I collapsed my head on the headrest and closed my eyes. Some minutes later, I kept hearing the conversation of Anna an

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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.

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
