“Adam, I found out who has been stalking Emily,” James shouted as he came barrelling through the front door. Stopping short when he saw the detective in the living room.
“Calm down James, sit down and let me know what happened.” Well, Fields and I went to the Bahamas, as there was where our search led us. We went to a house that was a bit secluded. When we went and knock an old elderly couple answered the door. We were a bit confused as that’s where we traced where some of the text has been sent from otherwise from in New York and Paris. We sat down with the couple and we asked them random questions like if they had any children and where they were. They told us they had a son and his name was Tim and that he now resides in New York.”

EmilyRunning through the hospital doors, I stopped right at the desk and began shouting that they take me to my mother’s room. A nurse who was at the desk told me her room number and I ran into the elevator and began pressing the buttons impatiently. Bringing me up to the Emergency ward, I stepped off the elevator and ran right up to Melissa who was pacing the floor.“What happened?” I practically shouted at her.“She accidentally heard that you were kidnapped and she began sobbing. The next thing I know she was shaking vigorously and was foaming at the mouth.” Sinking at the floor, I began sobbing while wondering why bad things have to happen to good people. What did we do wrong? Where did we go wrong for things like this to plague us.” I didn’t know how long I was there, but I tuned out everyt
Loving The CEO Chapter One: Meeting a Handsome Stranger
EmilySitting down in the park, the cool evening breeze washed over my skin as I watched the children play, adults sitting on the nearby benches conversing or going on their merry way. Watching everything unfold, took me back to a time when I was a kid and I would enjoy the company of my father and mother when we would usually play in my favorite meadow that was near our house back in Texas. Those were happy days for me, and every day I wished I could be transported back to that time–– when I was happy and had no care in the world.Sighing, I got up and walked back to my apartment building where I checked on the woman who made my heartbreak every day due to her condition going downhill. She was still fast asleep, lying peacefully with a smile on her face. Walking into her room, I kissed her on the cheek and whispered, “I love you mom,” before I ventured into the living room where I watched television unt
Loving The CEO Chapter Two: Infatuated at First Sight
Adam“These fucking reporters,” I shouted as I threw down the newspaper in disgust. “Adam Jacob, a Casanova and a big-time player, has broken up with Supermodel who’s a sweetheart, Heather Summers.” That was the headline that was on the front of today’s morning newspaper. These journalists were like a hungry dog lusting after a damn bone. They had written total crap and made it seem like I was the bad guy. They didn’t know who Heather Summers was. I can bet my life that she was the one who tipped them off about me being a famous “Casanova.”I know she did this because I had told her that we couldn’t see each other anymore. She knew what we had was temporary, so I didn’t see why there was any surprise there. When I had broken the news to her last month, she had hit me so hard that my jaw was still feeling the sting every time I thought about it. Heather was

EmilyToday was another boring day at the bookstore and I couldn't wait for my shift to end so I could go home and relax. Sitting at the cash register, I heard the familiar buzz. Buzzing the person in without looking up, I felt someone drilling a hole inside of me. Looking up, I saw it was the man who came to the store yesterday“Is there a reason why you're staring at me?”“Yes, I like what I see,” he replied teasingly.Blushing I waved off his remark, I asked, “what can I do for you today?”“Well, I'm here to ask you on a date. So, would you go on a date with me?” He asks bluntly“M-me go on a date with you?” I was surprised.“Yes, why do you sound so surprised?”“Well for one, we don't know each other as we just met yesterday and I don't know what you're like.”“Well, my name is Adam and I'm the CEO of J

AdamI could hear my phone going off and I wondered who would be calling me at this time. Sitting up, I took the phone from off the table beside my bed before I looked at the caller’s ID then answered it. “Hey,” her voice came into the phone.“Hey,” I replied while I watched the blond hair girl beside me move then settled back down comfortably in bed.“Before I get into why I called you, I want to thank you for sending your driver although he seemed very scary and had made me feel uncomfortable all the way home.”Chuckling, I replied, “he told me that you practically ran out of the car when he had stopped at your home. You don't have to fear him, he isn't that bad. I would've picked you up myself but I was busy.”“Yeah right and I’m the queen of the moon,” she retorted sarcastically. “Anyways I called to ask if we could hang out first before we g

EmilyReaching home from work I went straight to my mother's room to check on her. It has become a daily routine of mine ever since I found out that she had cancer. Knocking on her door, I entered.“Mom, are you okay?” I asked her but I didn't get any response. Walking up to her, I gently shook her. Her body felt like ice, cold beneath my touch. “Mom,” I called out but she still didn't answer. Panicking, I quickly shuffled through my bag where I took my phone out and dialed 911.“Hello yes, I would like an ambulance at Ambrose Lane New York apartment one.”“What's your emergency?” the operator asked.“My mom has cancer and I just came home to see that she has fainted,” I replied frantical
Loving The CEO Chapter Six: Being the Supportive Friend
AdamEmily's mom seemed pretty nice when I met her earlier when I was at the hospital. She had complimented me by calling me a ‘fine specimen’ to Emily who was embarrassed by her mom doing such a thing. She had even called me a ‘fine gentleman’ which made me blush a little. Being around Emily’s mom made me realize that Emily had discussed her with me, it was so funny watching them banter. I was enjoying it but eventually, her mom got tired.“Mom, get some rest, you're tired,” Emily said to her.“Okay sweetheart I am not going to argue with that.” her mom replied. “And Emily, please go out and have fun with this fine gentleman. I'll be fine.”Shaking her head at her, she kissed her on her cheek before we both exited the ro

Loving The CEO Chapter Thirty-Six: Finally, Answers
EmilyI know it was wrong, but I couldn’t help myself. For the past month, I have been communicating with my stalker. He always messages me on an unknown number so I couldn’t trace it. Every day he would send me a message telling me how much he loves and adores me, and he cannot wait for the day we finally meet so I can see who he is and accept him. I would always reply with ‘I can’t wait to meet you’ or ‘I know you love me.’ I was playing a very dangerous game and I know if Adam knew what I was up to he would be upset.It had been two weeks since I have been back at work. I was still staying at Adam’s but I have been to visit my mom and Melissa a couple of times. My mom was getting worse by the minute, and it broke me every time to see her like that. To see her being weak and not being able to do anything. She keeps assuring me that s

Adam“Adam, I just got word from Fields that there is a possible lead. I will have to fly out to Washington tonight so I could meet with him.” Finally, after a month of hearing nothing, there is a chance that this lead will actually be the answer that we have been looking for.“Okay, just keep me updated and let me know what happens and James has a safe trip.” Ending the call, I place the phone on the table as I sat back and closed my eyes. For the past month, James and I had been working like madmen to try and find out new clues, whilst keeping an eye on Emily, who seems out of it at times. I find her spending time in my mother’s library reading mystery books and I can’t help but feel she is up to something. I have asked the staff to watch her discreetly because I have a gut feeling that something bad is going to happen and soon.
Loving The CEO Chapter Thirty-Four: The New Nancy Drew
EmilyBeing bored was an understatement as to how I was feeling at the moment. Used to being occupied whether at work or at home, I felt useless just lying in bed all day. The staff doesn’t allow me to do anything, if I tried to wash the glass that I had just used, I would be told by one of the maids that it wasn’t my job and that Mr. Jacob will be very upset if they allow me to wash it.Sighing, I pulled the covers from over my head as I picked up my phone and stared at the latest message that I had gotten from whoever had been stalking me. I never meant to hurt you, but you had left me no choice. Why is it that you can go on dates with a stranger but you won’t give me the time of day when I am the one who clearly loves you? Thinking back to last night, I could’ve di

Adam“Emily, wake up please,” I cried out as I rocked her back and forth. Coming to a few moments later, she sat up groggily.“Where am I?” she asked, her voice coming out shakily.“You’re in my home in my bed, I found you passed out on the street with a gash on your forehead.” Putting her hand on her forehead, she winced and withdrew her hand and stared at it. She was still bleeding and I had asked Sophia to call the doctor and to also bring the first aid kit so I could dress her wound.“What happened? Did you fall?”“No, I was walking down the street, when I turned to reach in my bag, I realized I didn’t have it on my shoulders and the minute I turned around back I was

Emily“It’s so nice to see you, Emily,” his voice floated over to me. Cringing, I turned to him and smiled before I began to walk away. Just coming out of my apartment, I was greeted by Tim who dressed in his dark jeans and his polo shirt. I continued walking but was halted by his voice.“I’m sorry Emily, I am sorry for how things went down between us. I really do.” Turning towards him, I could see the sincerity in his eyes and I could also hear it in his voice. “Is there any chance you could forgive me?”“Why the sudden change?” I asked confused. This was totally unlike him, unlike his nature for the three years I have been working at the bookstore, I have never seen or heard of Tim being sincere about anything.“Well,&r
Loving The CEO Chapter Thirty-One: Back on Track
AdamGetting dressed, I quickly looked over at Emily and saw that she was still sound asleep. Putting on my clothes, I grabbed my phone off the bed and saw that it was five in the morning. Going to sit at the edge of the bed, I gently move her hair before kissing her on the forehead. Getting up, I grabbed my shoes before quietly opening the door and closing it behind me. Exiting her apartment building, I got inside my car and drove home. When I had arrived, I saw that no one was up and the hall was dark. Feeling my way around the room, I got a hold of the railing before climbing the stairs to my bedroom. Laying down in bed, I closed my eyes and before you know it, I was waking up to the sun shining on my face.Groaning out loud, I sat up before running a hand over my face. I felt completely drained. I don’t know if it was the fact that Emily had tired me out
Loving The CEO Chapter Thirty: Make-up Sex is Often the Best
EmilyIt’s funny how things can change within a second, this moment you’re happy and smiling and the next you’re avoiding people like the plague. I haven’t spoken to Adam intimately after I had caught his maid climbing him and that was two months ago. We see each other at work and the only thing we exchange are greetings and me telling and confirming his schedule. He had tried on numerous occasion to say more, to reach out but I shut him down completely. I am slowly trying to get over it but it seems so hard when you have been hurt before it just seems impossible to forgive and forget. Sighing to myself, I got up out of bed before I went to take a shower, brush my teeth then threw my hair in a ponytail. Getting dressed in a gray dress, and black flats, I grab my phone and bag before going into the kitchen.Getting the orange juice from the refrigerator, I gra
