MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 27: Dreaming Of Him
As I arrived at my apartment that evening, I slumped on the cushion as I was so exhausted, only to wake up when everywhere was already dark.I fret because I had promised to speak with my daughter today through video call. I told her this in the morning through Jason, and I know she'll really be delighted about this, so not keeping to my promise would hurt her.I checked the time on my phone and was relieved, as it hasn't gotten to the time she used to go to bed.Quickly, I dialed Jason's number, and it didn't ring for a while, and it was picked up. This shows they're already together and have been waiting for this call."Hello Jason. Good evening," I greeted, feeling excited."Good evening, Zora. How are you? How was work today? I hope no one stressed you at the office." Jason asked."I'm fine, dear. Everything really went well. I think I'm enjoying my work here," I said, lying to him.I felt there's no need to tell him my horrible experience with Zayn and how he's been pestering me

Zayn: Hello, dear. Which of these do you like? I just purchased them to ease your stress of taking cabs to the office.A wry smile crept across my lips. Zayn really knows how to play this game. I thought of ignoring him, but my instincts went against that. Since it was for business purposes, there's nothing wrong with that. I think I should accept it, but not as mine.I texted him back, telling him I'm okay with any color as long as it serves its purpose, which is taking me to work and bringing me home.I boarded a cab and left for the office.Upon arrival, I was somewhat happy that Zayn hadn't arrived yet. His car wasn't at its special parking lot.I headed straight to my office, but on my way, I encountered Nicholas, the firm's secretary."Hey, good morning, Mrs... Um, Miss Zora," he said, choking on his words as he realized his mistake."How are you doing?" He added, forcing a smile.I gulped down the lump in my throat and sighed. "I'm fine, Mr. Nick. How about you?" I said, forcin

"Or should I go into detail about how much I miss you?" He sighed, regret evident on his face."I miss how you used to wake up early in the morning to prepare my breakfast. How you would iron my clothes before finally waking me up for work.""I miss your words of encouragement and prayers for my protection. I miss your delicious meals." He gulped hard, his words choking him."You miss me?" I said, a smirk forming at the corner of my lips.I was satisfied that he missed me. They say you don't value what you have until you lose it; I guess Zayn is the perfect example of that."Well, you don't miss me. You're just missing your home robot and not me because you made it clear that you never loved me," I told him confidently.Of course, Zayn never missed me because all he mentioned here was my virtuous qualities. I had devoted myself to that marriage; even his friends would praise him in front of me for having a good wife.His cousins and his grandmother adored me, saying that Zayn made a p

As soon as Zayn walked out of my office, I let out a smile of satisfaction, as I had just fulfilled my long-term wish for Zayn since our separation.It was as if a burden had been lifted from me. I had waited for a day like this when I'd make him feel exactly the way he made me feel five years ago.Albeit I wasn't harsh enough towards him, it's really satisfying seeing him feel the same way he made me feel on our divorce day.I went to the window to gaze through the city of Southampton. It was amazing to know the powerful and fearful business tycoon who's dreaded in this city almost cried in front of me."Amazing!"I went back to my chair, and thoughts started consuming my head. "Has he really changed? Is it worth telling him I've forgiven him? What will happen to my relationship with Jason?"I sighed and picked up my phone. I wanted to call Blake so I could get some vital information from him.The phone rang for a while, and he picked it up. "Wow, I can't believe I just received a ca

"Absolutely, Zora. Honestly, I feel for Zayn because he's about to lose his long-term acquired wealth to that lady. He really got himself into some deep trouble," he said, leaving me with a lot of thoughts swirling in my head.Not gonna lie, even though I want Zayn to suffer for his decision, I feel for him because of the horrible situation he's about to find himself in. He doesn't deserve to lose everything to that woman."How could he make such a decision? I thought he was smart," I said, condemning Zayn's decision to agree to such terms in their marriage."Honestly, it was as if the lady cast a spell on him because I doubt he did all that with a clear mind, despite the fact that he had already purchased a lot of property when they were still flirting and mingling.""Well, whether he was under a spell or not, he is the one to blame for this. After all, a spell doesn't work on someone who is innocent," I responded, sighing."Yeah, he did, but I don't think it's the right time to blam
Last Updated : 2024-11-08MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 32: My Replica?
ZAYN —"Calm down, Zora," I took a deep breath, fixing my gaze directly into her charming eyes."Why are you here? What do you want from me, Zayn? I thought I told you something in my office earlier today."I sighed, taking a few steps back as I sensed her fear. "What if you believed me, Zora? What if you believed that I had changed? Would you accept me back? What would it take to make you believe me?" I asked her softly.I could feel her cool breath on my face, her alluring scent enveloping me, making it hard to concentrate. Her blue eyes kept drawing me closer to her.Suddenly, she regained her composure and let out a sigh. "Well, I also wish it could be possible, at least for the sake of your replica, but it's too late.""Late? How? And what do you mean by my replica? Since when did I have a replica?" I asked, furrowing my brow."Yes, it's already late, Zayn. I'm already dating," she stated, causing my expression to darken instantly."And about the replica, don't dwell on it too muc

"If that were the case, Blake, I think it would be better," I said, ruffling my hair as I felt my world crumbling apart."Can you calm down, Zayn? Calm down and tell me what the problem is," Blake said, trying to help my situation."Blake, is there any other problem I have aside from getting Zora back? Why do you sound like a novice? For goodness' sake, I've lost her, Blake. It's all lost," I screamed in anger, heading to the parking lot so I could hide in my car and cry out my frustration where none of my staff would see me."What do you mean by that statement, Zayn? You lost who?" He asked, feeling surprised."Tell me you're joking, Zayn, because it hasn't even been long since I spoke with her, and I could tell you that there was progress. You just need to keep seducing her and adding pressure.""I did everything...""So what went wrong? What did you do this time to warrant this sudden reaction from her?" He asked with a reprimanded tone."That's what I can't answer for now, Zayn. I

ZORA —"Don't tell me he has found out, Blake. Did he? How did he find out?" I asked incessantly, worried about the news as Blake told me what he had discussed with Zayn while on a video call with him and his wife, Daisy, in the evening."Calm down, Zora. It's nothing to worry about. After all, he's yet to know the child is his, so nothing happened," Blake said, trying to comfort me."How? Who would he think the child belongs to then if not him?" I asked him, running my hand through my hair as I felt my long-held secret had been exposed."From what Blake told me, Zayn thought Jason was the baby daddy. Relax, Zora. He hasn't found out," Daisy chipped in.I exhaled a deep sigh, bent my head, and fixed my gaze on the floor. "But why would you let him know about that? How could you let that slip out of your mouth?" I asked, feeling betrayed.It was only the three of us that knew I was pregnant for Zayn before leaving Southampton City. Unless recently, I made it known to Jason that Zayn is

MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 82: Zayn Visited
ZORA —"Is that my baby's voice I'm hearing in the background?" Zayn asked excitedly. "Please let me speak with her," he demanded, and I handed the phone to Daisy."Hello, Daddy," she said, excited to speak with her father."Hello, my beautiful angel!" I could hear Zayn's voice. He was happy to hear from Daisy again after last night."How are you, my princess?""I'm fine, Daddy. When are you coming to visit us here?" She asked as if she was here when I and Zayn discussed his visit.They spoke for a few minutes before Daisy handed the phone back to me. Their conversation flowed effortlessly."Daisy sounded so sleepy when we were talking.""Yeah. She's sleepy. She'll sleep now once she has her lunch," I said."Amazing. Can't wait to see you both. I'm really missing you. The crazy stroke you...""Shhh. She's still around," I shunned Zayn, not wanting Daisy to hear the voguish topic he was trying to start."Alright. I will call you back after a while then," he stated and hung up the call,
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 81: Everyone Is Against Our Reunion
ZORA—Everyone had left after the meeting at my place, so it was just my daughter and me remaining.They're on a short holiday, as so is our organization, so I have a few days to take care of myself and rest."Mommy, why was everyone shouting at each other when Uncle Jason and your two friends were here?" Daisy asked, coming out of her room after noticing that everyone had gone.The once buzzing room was now as quiet as a graveyard."Nothing really, dear. There was something important we were discussing.""Is it about my dad? When are we going to visit him again? And mommy, who really is Uncle Jason, since my daddy is the man who picked me up from daycare the other day?" Daisy was curious. She gazed directly into my eyes, waiting for an answer."Hello... Yes... Okay, I'll do it right away." I faked a call, stood up, and left the room.As I walked into my room, I exhaled a deep sigh of relief. "Lord, don't let this girl expose me," I blurted, holding my chest.Unexpectedly, my phone be
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 80: You Both Are Supporting Evil
ZORA — "God, Jason, this accusation is too much for me. Why are you acting so insecure? How could something happen between me and Zayn when Daisy was present?" I continued lying. I was determined not to give up even though there were glaring pieces of evidence. Daisy was already suspicious of me from the way she was giving me a suspicious stare, but she didn't make it obvious to Jason. "What's happening here, guys? I thought this should be a call for celebration, so what's all the fuss about?" Blake questioned as he emerged from Daisy's room. "What happened? Daisy was worried as the voices were getting louder. And why were you cursing my friend Zayn?" Blake added, walking over to where his wife was sitting and joining her. I felt like burying myself in the ground. I concluded that I was already caught since Daisy, my daughter, noticed the commotion from her room. I thought she was coming out with Blake. She might even tell Jason that Zayn is her real dad since she saw us togethe
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 79: Did Blake Tell Him?
ZORA —"Are you serious? Daisy was with that monster called Zayn yesterday?" Jason was terrified when he heard the news.I and my daughter returned here this morning, and Blake and his wife decided to pay us a visit, perhaps to know if we really come back in good health."I'm really shocked that Zayn would do that," Daisy, my friend, chipped in."Yes, dear. I didn't know how it happened, but he kidnapped her. I think he found out that Daisy is his daughter," I commented, feigning anger as he is."Fuck!" Jason cursed, kicking the air as he vented his anger. "That man is challenging me. After all these years, he's just realizing that Daisy is his daughter. What a disgrace!""But Jason, think about it. Zayn wouldn't stay forever without knowing that Daisy is his daughter. It would only be a matter of time before he finds out, and I think it has happened.""What nonsense!" Jason roared, obviously irritated by my response."Are you taking sides with that asshole? You want him to find out th
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 78: Are You Cheating On Me?
Daisy —I woke up from sleep to use the restroom. I had been purging throughout the night due to the unhealthy water I drank last night.After the long search for Zora's daughter, Daisy, we decided to stay at a hotel and spend the night there instead of risking our lives by driving home.I had taken anti-purge medicine, but it only helped to alleviate the purge. It hasn't been long since I took it.About five minutes later, I returned to the room after using the restroom. I looked a bit frustrated and angry."Babe, why did you choose to stay here among all the hotels in this city?" I asked Blake, my husband, while he was still sleeping, nudging him to wake up.He didn't consume anything from the hotel yesterday, which is why he was unaffected by the issue that affected me."I'm really sorry, babe. I thought you had already taken medicine the first time we woke up. Isn't it working?" He asked, sitting up in bed, his face filled with worry and pity.I frowned as I sat closer to him. "I'm
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 77: Caught Red-handed
Already knowing what he was thinking, I didn't give it much thought, and my lips reached for his. We had a crazy, mad kiss. It was as if we had been starved of that for a lifetime.I didn't want anything more than to fall for the same mistake I made months ago in his mansion with him, even though I know it could cause terrible consequences in the future.**The next morning, I woke up before Zayn, and the first thing that came to my mind was the incident that happened last night. I felt ashamed remembering how I was forcing my way even though Zayn was retracting at some point, knowing that I might wake up the next day and feel bad about what happened.I stared at him for some seconds and ended up caressing his face. He was so cute while sleeping.The touch woke him up. "Good morning," he greeted softly, with a smile creeping on his lips.The smile indicated he recalled what happened during the night and was happy about it. It was a smile of satisfaction."Good morning. I can see you ha
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 76: I Want To Repeat The Same Mistake
ZORA —"Zayn, can we talk this out in the daytime? I'm already sleepy and need to rest," I said, interrupting his plans.I finished the wine in my glass and prepared to leave.Zayn stood up, looking frustrated, but I was more concerned about getting some sleep"Use the other bathroom if you want to shower. That one is Daisy's only," Zayn said as he saw me walking into the bathroom where I bathed Daisy. He was following me.I gulped, smiling slightly as I felt that wasn't necessary.He just said that so he could follow me to the restroom and continue his silly talk. This was my conclusion.I went to the restroom and showered. It had really been a stressful day.I was relieved when we walked halfway, and Zayn pointed at the door right by the corner, saying, "That's the restroom," and then he left.I entered and began bathing without scanning the restroom. It was after I was done that I reached for the shelf where I hung my dress to get it when two packages of nylon fell down. I picked th
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 75: Stand Up
For how long are we going to stay silent, indulging ourselves with drink?" I managed to ask.A smirk formed across his lips, and he gently dropped the glass cup, resting his back on the seat backrest. "For hiding my daughter from me for five years, you need to pay me something more than that," he declared.I bit my lips, and my gaze went downcast for a few seconds before returning to face him. I needed to be strong if I must escape this man, so I summoned courage. "Zayn, I don't even know how you came to your conclusion about my daughter being yours. She's not your daughter, please. Her real father must be really worried by now about us."Hearing this, Zayn let out a slight taunting laugh, making me scared. He took a sip of his wine and fixated his gaze on me, smiling.For him to be this bold, he might have obtained a lot of evidence that backed up his claims as Daisy's real father.A few seconds later, he sighed heavily and sat up. "Have you forgotten that I was with Daisy throughout
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 74: Exquisite Suite
ZORA—I watched as the interaction between Daisy and her father was blending, and I couldn't help but keep smiling sheepishly. This was what I had been depriving the two of them of.Zayn didn't even bother talking to me throughout that dinner. The only time he talked to me was when Daisy mentioned something that related to me.Well, I'm not blaming him because I would do the same if it were me. I can't even imagine someone hiding my daughter away from me for five whopping years, so Zayn is right in every one of his reactions.The was going well between the daughter and father, and I was okay with it until Zayn stood up and went to the window, gazing at the city."I hope you're prepared to spend the night here with us because you're not going home with her tonight. The days aren't friendly to be driving home with her by this time," Zayn commented.He was right. It was already the time when a lot of evil happens in Southampton city.The youths of this place rarely work for money but rel
