MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 34: Finally Accepted His Proposal
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

"But I'm curious, Zora. How sure are you that Jason hasn't been doing all this just to hit? I don't trust him. He seems to be a player," Blake raised a topic."Don't say that, Blake. Jason is such a good guy. If his intention towards me wasn't genuine, he would have stopped being kind towards me and my child long ago, especially the moment I declined his proposal at first," I remarked, defending Jason.Daisy immediately nudged him with her elbow. "It seems you and Zayn are birds of the same feather. Don't be surprised if Zora kicks you off from this call," she warned him, but Blake ended up laughing, infuriating me.Witnessing this, Daisy burst into laughter. "That serves him right. It's good he's revealing his true colors so we know how we dish out some certain information about you to him," she said, standing up from her seat to change position."Absolutely. He's working for Zayn," I added."He better not get himself involved in Zayn's deep shit. Unless he doesn't like the way I sti

The next day, being Friday, I woke up earlier than usual to prepare for work and also get my luggage ready as I would be traveling back to Northville City today because it was already the weekend—the long-awaited day has finally approached.After taking a bath, I was about to get dressed and leave to board a cab to the office when I noticed my phone ringing.I rushed to the sitting room where I had left it at night after having the conversation with Daisy. I was so drowsy that I couldn't even think of my phone but managed to go to my room to sleep.However, upon getting to the sitting room, I was disappointed to see that Zayn was the one calling me.I ignored him and left to continue dressing up.After a few minutes, I was done dressing and left for the office.However, upon arrival, I noticed the company was kind of scanty."What happened? Where are the rest of the staff of this place?" I wondered, gazing around to see at least one person, but everywhere was empty.Does it mean that

I exhaled a deep sigh and gazed at his face for a few seconds before swallowing the lump in my throat."I don't know who gave you the advice that you could win me back by adding pressure despite my threats.""If this gift is solely for business reasons to make my work easier, I have no problem with it, and I would appreciate it greatly. However, if it has to do with my past marriage with you, I'm sorry, I don't need a car. Thank you for reminding me of my miserable marriage with you. Hope you're satisfied now."I hissed and turned to leave, but Zayn grabbed me by my wrists."How are you going to embarrass me in the presence of my workers? At least save me some shame, Zora," he whispered into my ear.I chuckled wryly, and a smirk replaced it."Of course, that's what you wanted. For you to gather them here, you want them to witness everything that will happen, don't you?" I said, and he creased his forehead in astonishment."I should have yelled this so they could hear it, but like you s
Last Updated : 2024-11-17MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 38: I Missed You Mommy
That evening, I had finished packing and was now waiting for Jason to arrive with his car, along with our daughter—yes, with our daughter—to pick me up for Northville.While waiting for them, I turned on the television to keep myself busy with my favorite news channel. Not long, I saw an image of Zayn attached at the upper right corner, and I paid closer attention to it to know why Zayn appeared in the news.As usual, he always appears in the news, but this doesn't seem pleasing.News Broadcaster: "Popular billionaire business mogul auctions his multimillion-dollar company as he faces bankruptcy."I exhaled deeply after the news broadcaster narrated the news.I couldn't help but chuckle because I knew the reason for his action.He's trying to sell off his properties so he won't have anything to share with Paige when they officially divorce."Well, that's his problem. He created it for himself, so let him face it," I sighed, picking up my phone to call Jason to find out why he hadn't a
Last Updated : 2024-11-21MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 39: Intense Public Kiss
ZAYN —"Yes, there's a problem with that. There's absolutely a problem with what you both were doing," I replied back to that idiot.How I wish he knew how much I despise him; he wouldn't have dared question me for interrupting them."I'm yet to figure out how Zora got fooled by you. You won't know there's something wrong in what you both were doing because you were badly raised, you miserable bastard," I added, gritting my teeth as I awaited him to respond so I could fire him more insults."Enough!" Zora yelled. "Enough of this, Zayn. I might tolerate your harassment towards me, but standing in front of me to harass my man is the last thing I would condone," Zora reverberated, pissing me off.I thought I had seen it all, but seeing Zora defend this worthless man compared to my status screams that Zora might not get back to me.I've come to realize that I'm just wasting my time trying to get her from the way she had just defended this man as if her life depended on him.Jason sighed a
Last Updated : 2024-11-22MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 40: I'm Doomed
ZAYN —I was disappointed to notice it was Nicholas, my secretary, so I just hissed and left him without uttering a word.It really hurts seeing how deeply in love Zora is with that man. From initiating a kiss in front of me to fighting for him, daring not to tolerate it from me if I harass him again."Mr. Zayn. I really do understand how you're feeling. You want her back, but does she want you?" Nicholas stated as he walked over to me, frightening me because I never expected him to follow me up because of the topic."If you eventually win her back with materialistic things, do you think the union will last? I think she has lost her feelings for you, and the best thing to do is to move on," he added."I just feel like strangling that man to death for being an obstacle to me, Nick. I don't mind hiring a hit squad for him, and I'm serious," I remarked gruffly, my voice dripping with disdain, and it was barely audible while gritting my teeth and clenching my fists into tight balls."But
Last Updated : 2024-11-24MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 41: I Did Horrible Thing
ZORA —I watched from the rearview mirror as Zayn's car halted, and I exhaled a sigh of relief. That man doesn't seem to be forgetting about me anytime soon despite my stern warnings.From the way Zayn reacted at the Charme restaurant, I noticed he was deeply shaken. I couldn't stop gazing through the rearview mirror to make sure he was not still following us because he's full of wonders.He might drive halfway and change his mind, deciding to drive to find me in Northville.Although I did a horrible thing to get Zayn deeply hurt, I never knew he'd react that way. I never knew he'd react in such an aggressive manner.I just desperately wanted him to stay off me because he represents a great danger to my control. This was because I'm damn scared of giving in to his pleas and his request of accepting a second chance, so I did everything I could."Is anything the matter? Do you recognize someone here?" Jason asked me with a tender touch as he noticed my action.I sighed and looked at him

MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 84: A Surge Of Bitterness
ZAYN —We were in the middle of enjoying ourselves when we heard a truck honk at the gate."Are you expecting anyone?" I asked Zora, who looked stunned as she tried to figure out who it could be."Not really. Except for the delivery package that I requested yesterday, but I doubt it's the delivery guy since it was a truck horn we heard instead of a motorbike," said Zora, running her hand through her hair."Let's go find out who it is then," I said, standing up.I led the way, with Zora following. Meanwhile, Daisy had already gone to her room after finishing her meal. Zora convinced her to leave the room at my request so I could go ahead and put on a show for her as promised.As we walked out of the building towards the exit gate, I took out my phone to verify something so I wouldn't embarrass myself in front of Zora."Who's that?" Zora asked the security guard."He said he came to deliver a surprise package, Ma," said the security personnel with an honest look.Zora was about to walk
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 83: Okafor's Law
ZAYN —I woke up after the intense bedroom workout between Zora and me. It was so intense that we both fell asleep after the activity.I searched for my phone but couldn't find it as everywhere was dark. It was early morning, probably around 3:00 a.m. or 4:00 a.m.I stretched my hand to the bed frame and switched on the light. It was somehow easy because I had already seen the switch there during the activity.Meanwhile, Zora was still asleep.I reached for my phone but saw hers beside mine. Immediately, an idea came to my mind, and I picked up her phone instead of mine, which I initially wanted to.Fortunately, I had seen her unlock the phone multiple times without a biometric method, so unlocking it wasn't a hassle for me.I went to her contact list and searched for the name "Jason" and proceeded with my plan.Zayn: I don't care what you did for Zora, but stay away from her. This is Zayn texting you with Zora's phone, and that should tell you that we're still together. Just because
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
