“Hey girls!” I said cheerfully into the group video call with my two best friends. Lillian and Jennifer. We’ve been friends since university started and went through university together. Throughout the four years, we helped each other out and worked so hard towards our graduation. “Hi hi. I can just tell by how cheerful you are that you have some good news to share. Am I right?” Lillian said with a bright smile. “Yup yup. Even I can tell that much as well. So…tell us!” Jennifer demanded. “I got the job!” I announced proudly before clapping my hands and laughing with joy. “Oh wow!” Lillian cried out happily. “Congratulations!!!” Jennifer exclaimed almost at the same time as Lillian as they both heard my good news. Although we all acted so excited, it was a fact that I was the last person out of the three of us that landed a fulltime job after graduation. Lillian was the first one who got a job as part of the PR team at one of the leading cosmetic and personal care company. I had
I actually didn’t care about it much. I’m here to work not to date so the rule, even if it exists, wouldn’t have an impact on me anyways. I guess the people who were overly worried about it wanted to find their soulmate in this place, not that I blamed them. This company was huge and had many qualified employees; it wasn’t a bad place to find your significant other.The woman on stage cleared her throat and the murmurs in the auditorium came to a halt. Her face was dead serious as she scanned her eyes across the crowd of audiences in front of her.“What you understand is correct. Employees in this company are not allowed to date or have any type of romantic relationship with another employee. Anyone caught breaking this rule, will face immediate termination. I hope that I have made myself and the rule extremely clear to all of you,” the woman said, continuing to stress on her every word.Everyone in the crowd, including myself nodded our heads as the situation got serious and tension
“I’m glad you’re here then…” the man said before he started to laugh a little.I sucked in a breath when his hand reached out and handed me my phone. He found my phone? Wow…what a lucky coincidence.“You found my phone? Wow…thank you! You’ve really saved me…” I said feeling a mix of surprise and relief.It would be such a huge hassle to lose my phone not to mention that I didn’t have spare money to buy a new one. I couldn’t wait to get my first paycheck at the end of the month, seriously.“Must have been fate…” the man said softly as he smiled so gently at me, his light blue eyes seemed to shine, and I couldn’t look away.Before I could stop myself, I started laughing. My reaction confused the man so much that he stared at me, a little take a back by my reaction.“Sorry. I just thought that it was a little funny. You see, I thought to myself that it’s such a lucky coincidence that you found my phone…but…you called it fate…” I said as my laughing came to a stop and I smiled sweetly bac
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine living alone. I have good friends in this neighborhood so there’s nothing for you to worry about. Get a nice new place close to the office so you don’t have to waste time and money commuting,” my mother said before I could explain anything.“Thank you, mother,” I thanked her wholeheartedly.“Don’t thank me. Thank all the efforts that you put into landing this job. Don’t worry about me and just focus on your career,” my mother said encouragingly.“I’ll come back to visit or you can come visit me,” I said with a smile.“Sure, I’ll do that. Don’t go to bed too late,” she said before she returned my smile.“I know. Good night, mother,” I wished her goodnight.My mother had to start work very early tomorrow and I knew that she needed to go to bed early. I wished her goodnight with a smile. I was always so thankful of how understanding she is. Once I’ve settled into my new life, I’ll take care of her better.Now that my mother has gone to bed, I should focus on re
Various photos which seemed like paparazzi shots of Ace with various beautiful women on his arms or locked in his embrace started showing on the screen as the host began narrating through the list of his ex-girlfriends and others that he’s had an affair with. I recognized some of the famous names from various industries. Movie stars, singers, supermodels, and other socialites.A sigh escaped my lips as I turned off the television. Who cares about his love affairs anyways?Time to go back and focus on hunting for a new apartment. Time is of the essence here and I didn’t have the time to worry about that crazy player guy. He’s the CEO of the company that I work for now, but it didn’t really have anything to do with me. I knew that I was way down there on the corporate ladder, and he was way up there so the chances of us ever meeting again or working together was next to non-existent.After finding a couple of reliable-looking real estate agencies and noting down their address, I decided
Ace was dressed in a smart all black suit with a white shirt. Although I was seated quite far from the stage, I still thought that he looked amazingly handsome in that suit. After waiting for the applause in the auditorium to die down, Ace began delivering his speech. If I had to describe his speech, I would say that it was harsh, straightforward, but strangely very motivating.After briefly introducing himself and extending a few polite words of welcome to us, Ace began delivering the main message of his speech.“Thank you everyone for joining this company. I understand that each and every one of you may have different reasons for joining this company, but I hope that everyone will work together towards a common goal that is aligned to the company’s vision. As the new CEO of this company, I am determined to take this company to new heights. And I’m overjoyed that everyone here will be part of the journey. I hope that everyone contributes more than 100% always to their work with full
At the end of the workday, our team headed to a restaurant that one of the members helped to book. The restaurant was quite small, but it served very interesting foods and the atmosphere was one of the best things about the place. The orange and dim light was the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing dinner after a tiring and long day of team building exercises. Everyone was in high spirits and after ordering our food, everyone started chatting immediately.For most of the people it was their first fulltime job. Only two people had a fulltime job prior to this one and had moved over from another company. Overall, everyone was extremely excited to get a chance to work for this company and obviously I shared the same sentiment as everybody else in my team.“Is anyone still looking for a place to stay close to the office?” Susanna asked.“I’m actually still searching for a place. My old place is very far from the office, so I was hoping to find a place closer,” I chimed in.“I think I know a
His eyes held mine as he stared deeply into my eyes, and I thought that his eyes looked so captivatingly beautiful. In that moment, I felt like we were the only two people in the world and I had completely forgotten about the other team members that were around us. It took a lot of will power to break the spell that Kyle seemed to have casted on me as I broke eye contact and began looking around the small bar. I could see that our friends have started to separate into pairs or into smaller groups as they form their own side conversations.“I have no idea if we will get to see each other that much anymore…” I replied a little regretfully.“Do you want to see me more?” Kyle asked as he looked straight at me. I was surprised that it didn’t take me long to figure out that I also wanted to see Kyle more and that I was a little scared that after we went our separate ways to work for our department, I would never see him again. Jessens and Hill’s was a very large company with many thousand
Almost immediately after Aiden was born, we were urged to move back to the city where Aiden could be raised in Ace’s family estate with an army of servants at his service. Naturally, I was against the idea right from the start. Surprisingly, Ace was even more against the idea and made sure that we were not disturbed as we continued to raise our young baby in the comfort of our own home. My mother moved into the house with us to help take care of baby Aiden. Ace fell in love with being a father and couldn’t wait to expand our family even further. Just when Aiden turned one year old, we began another baby-making project which resulted in another pregnancy not so long after. Roughly nine months later, Aiden became a big brother to baby Katie. Having two children to take care of increased our fun exponentially. By that time, we had our hands really full with the children and struggled to keep up with work at the office. “Maybe I should stop working to take care of the children…” I mumbl
“With pleasure,” I replied with a smile. Everything he did and said to me turned me on so badly. I wanted him so much that I thought that I might go crazy if I had to wait any longer to have him. My hands shook a little as I rushed to unbuckle his belt and unzip his pants. I sucked in a breath as I stared at the thick and throbbing monster that sprang into my hands. His cock was already gigantic and extremely erect. The virile look of his tool made my insides quiver just thinking of all the things that it could do to me once it entered me. “Put it inside you, Rina…” Ace urged in a seductive drawl that made my pussy quiver in anticipation. I knew that he was teasing me, but I found it so temptingly sexy at the same time. His cock throbbed in my hand, and I could feel it getting thicker and hotter. I stroked it up and down teasingly as I observed the look of desire that crept into Ace’s hazel eyes.“Let me help you spread your legs…” Ace offered as he grabbed my thighs and lifted the
The fact that we worked together and lived together gave rise to ample opportunities for us to get it on. At the rate that we were going, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out one day that I had successfully conceived. “Everyone headed home already. Should we call it a day and head home too?” I asked as I approached Ace in his personal office. Work has been quite busy as of late because many projects were due at pretty much the same time. Everyone in the office has been busy and hiring more people to take on the work also meant that there were more people for us to supervise. Time seemed to fly by each time and before I knew it, the sun had set outside, and it was getting dark. Working extra hours slowly became the norm again, although the work was still much more motivating and interesting than ever before. “Are you tired?” Ace asked with a worried look on his face.“Not really. I just don’t think you should work too late,” I replied honestly. “I guess I should stop working now the
“You’re not that old, dad. Surely, you can wait a few years,” Ace said defensively. “It doesn’t matter whether or not I’m old. She’s your wife and this is part of what she needs to do,” he said as he stared directly at me. “Stop pressuring her. Stress makes it harder for women to conceive. Don’t you know that?” Ace asked jokingly, although it was quite true. “Stop taking her side on this one,” his father warned. “She’s my wife, so of course, I’ll take her side. I know that you want to become a grandfather so badly, but you have to be patient. Don’t worry, we won’t disappoint you. We’ll have loads of children,” Ace said while sounding quite happy.I wasn’t sure how to handle the situation, so I was thankful that Ace was covering for me. There was no way that I would bend to the pressure and agree to having a baby right away. The few years that I stated felt like the right timeframe for me and if Ace didn’t have an issue with it, then it felt like enough for me. I have to say that I
I could sense that more trouble was coming our way and that I wasn’t going to quite like what he had to say. “Why do you think your father wants to see us?” I asked in a shaky voice. “You don’t need to be so scared of him,” Ace replied teasingly. “I don’t know…it just feels like there’s something that he wants from us…” I murmured before letting out a soft sigh. “Don’t overly worry yourself over nothing, Rina. We’re married now so I hope that you’ll get used to my dad even if I have to say that he’s not the easiest person to deal with,” Ace said before showing me a smile that I felt was comforting. “He suddenly requested to see us, and we just got back,” I said while still sounding very worried. “Maybe he has good news for us,” Ace said brightly. I highly doubted it, but I didn’t want to voice my thoughts out loud. There was a possibility that Ace might be right but that probably was probably very slim. The main estate for Ace’s family felt as intimidating as ever when we arriv
My body was hungry for even more pleasure, and I couldn’t wait to feel something even hotter and thicker stretching and filling up my insides.“Ace…please…” I begged him as I spread my legs wide for him. I reached up toward him with both my arms invitingly as I kept my pussy spread open to welcome his cock. Ace’s cock looked ready to burst and I knew that he couldn’t wait to shove that massive tool inside of me. “You look so sexy right now,” he complimented me with a look of raw desire in his eyes. “Take me…please…” I begged shamelessly as I held my thighs spread open for him. Ace stroked my pussy lips before spreading them and positioning the thick head of his cock at my entrance. I whimpered his name when I felt the hot heat of his hardness pressing against my pussy. Our eyes met and my insides clenched wildly in anticipation of his entrance. Ace smiled down at me before he thrusted his hips forward and screwed his cock hard and deep into my flooded love cave. “Ahhh!” I cried o
Just like how I wanted to make our wedding unforgettable, I wanted our first night together as a married couple to be unforgettable as well. Ace carried me to the bed and climbed on top of me just after we had arrived at the resort that we would be staying at for our honeymoon. It felt like the sea and all that mother nature had to offer outside could wait for the moment. At that moment, all that really mattered was the fact that we were together. “I want to fuck you already,” Ace confessed in a whisper close to my ear. His words and the way his warm breath tickled my ear sent shivers along my spine and I realized very quickly just how turned on I was already. Ace’s lips moved from my neck to capture my lips in an aggressive kiss that did nothing to hide his desire to have me. I kissed him back just as fervently before parting my lips invitingly for his tongue to delve inside my wet mouth. “Mhmm…” I moaned from the satisfaction of his tongue invading my mouth.My tongue welcomed hi
The guests clapped and cheered but I was so oblivious to them at that moment. All I could focus on was Ace while I cherished this memory that we were making together. It felt like a very bright and wonderful start to our future life as a married couple. The lunch reception that followed was slightly stressful for me given the fact that I didn’t have the chance to meet many people from Ace’s side of the family before. Regardless of my worries, it turned out that everyone was friendly enough even if it was for the sake of politeness. “Just smile, Rina. My bride looks so beautiful today,” Ace complimented me openly. “Thank you,” I replied softly.I knew that he was basically telling me to leave everything up to him and I didn’t mind letting him take the lead on this one. If I had to place my bets on which one out of us was the best at handling his family members, then it would be him and definitely not me. To my surprise, Ace’s father was very active in managing the guests. His conside
To my surprise, Ace was firm with his father so that his business partners would not be on the guest list. At the end of the day, the Chairman had to give his approval for Ace to have his way. I knew that Ace must have done that out of respect for my wishes.The white church decorated with a mix of white and light pastel pink and blue flowers gave off the slightly fairytale vibe that I had in mind. In fact, the set up and decoration looked better than what I could have imagined in my mind. The inside of the church was decorated with the same theme of flowers. “This is better than what I had in mind…” I told Ace honestly. “I’m glad to hear it. Let’s have a wonderful wedding, Rina,” Ace said before showing me a smile so charming that my heart skipped a beat. He reached for my hand and entwined his fingers with mine before giving my hand a soft and encouraging squeeze. I suddenly felt so excited and the wedding that was about to start felt more real than ever. “You’re right. Let’s re
