MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 55: Is She Working Here?
PAIGE —"Oh my God. Do you know who that is?" She asked, her mouth wide open in shock, leaving me confused and curious."Didn't I hear her referred her as Miss Zora?" I thought, confused."Is- - isn't she Zora?" I managed to ask the lady, stuttering."Absolutely. You even know her," the lady remarked excitedly, clearly stunned."Why are you berating her then as if she's an average class lady?""Excuse me, Lisa, what's going on here?" She asked the sales lady.At this point, she was already so close to us. I'm sure it's her because that's her voice.Damn, she looks so classic."I'm sorry, Ma. It seems this lady mistook you for someone else," the sales lady apologized, bowing in courtesy.I swallowed hard, trying to get the whole thing."I couldn't believe my sight. Is this a sort of daydreaming or what?" I questioned myself in my thoughts."Babe, what's happening? Do you know her?" Stormzy asked, looking all lost."Of course, I do. I know her very well," I said in a very low tone, movi

ZORA—I was smiling inside of me as I watched my men drag the living hell out of Paige and her boyfriend.I had purchased this clothing store not long ago. I purchased it yesterday after noticing it was up for sale from an online market store.It was put up for sale because the owner got into trouble.It was said that the owner and her husband are about to divorce, and as expected, they will have to share their properties. However, the husband isn't really financially buoyant, so they're going to share the lady's wealth because she acquired it during the marriage.To avoid this, the lady decided to sell off the clothing store and changed the names of some of her businesses to her mother's name.That was how I became a business owner in Southampton city. Not just a business, but a large, well-known business in Southampton City.So today I came to see how things are going and decided to get some outfits for myself. The sales rep, knowing that I'm the new owner, thought it's best she tak

ZORA—I stood up from the couch, heading out to the restroom to brush my teeth first and shower before going to the kitchen side.Nonetheless, as I was about to walk to the restroom, the sound of my phone, which sounded like an incoming mail, made me hold back to check what the email message was about.As I unlocked my phone, the first name that appeared on my screen made me smile. She was my colleague who participated in working on the first advertisement video, which Zayn had initially rejected.I decided to wait till I'm done bathing before reading what she sent so I could calm down and reply.About ten minutes later, I was done bathing, and I went back to my room.The first thing I did was go to my phone to read the email that my colleague sent.Anita: Wow, I'm so happy that you finally managed to convince that monster. Congratulations, we did it.I was startled. What is she celebrating? Who is she referring to as a monster?I took a sigh and proceeded to reply. "What news is that

"Listen to me, Zora. I'm your friend, and I won't dare to deceive you. I have your best interest in mind. You can't just close your mind to things that make life lovely." She paused for some seconds, examining my facial expression."Zora, you have to create time for yourself. You need to go out more often. Go for a lunch date, go to the cinemas, and have crazy memorable experiences. You know what that means?" She asked, winking her eyes, making me chuckle with shyness."Go girl. Take advantage of the fact that you have someone like Jason with you and have crazy fun with him," she declared, finally hitting the hammer on the nail and not beating around the bush.I giggled for the second time, and then exhaled a deep sigh. I was frantically not comfortable with the task Daisy was assigning me."I really wish I could, Daisy, but you know I'm a very busy type. Even Jason himself would not have time for such...""Says who?" She cut me off before I could finish. "You have no time and are alw

ZORA—When I arrived at Zech Holdings Ltd., everyone who participated in the recently approved project was already there, and their faces were beaming with beautiful smiles."Congrats, Zora, on our new win. You literally saved us from that monster." One of the upper echelons who didn't even contribute to the project remarked, and this made me realize that they were also affected by Zayn's rejection.I was wowed, but I managed to mask my emotions. "You all made it possible. If you hadn't deemed it fit, he wouldn't have approved it even though he initially rejected it," I responded, using that moment to thank him and his colleagues for speaking on my behalf on that day."Much thanks to you because I'm certain it's your words that contributed most to the project approval," I went on appreciating him.He couldn't help but keep smiling. "Thankfully, he finally accepted it," he added."Yeah. I'm grateful. How about him? Is he present yet?" I asked him, referring to Zayn."Not at all. Accordi

ZORA—Today marks two weeks since I returned to Northville City, and I have been spending time with my family, especially my daughter.The day after my return from Southampton City, Jason received a business call that required him to travel out of the city. He stayed there for a week and some days before finally returning. However, he went straight to his house, with his reason being that I am already back.However, I know the main reason for his abrupt move to his house without stopping at my place, where he left for the trip, has nothing to do with my presence. It was because of how I treated him. I had taken him as just a buddy instead of a lover, which is why I hadn't engaged in an intimate activity with him.Checking the time on my wrist, I was surprised to see it wasalmost twelve o'clock p.m. I took a deep sigh, picked up my phone from the table, and texted Jason that I would be going to Southampton City to pick up a file that I forgot at Zech Holdings.I couldn't call him beca

ZAYN —As the elevator halted, I walked out before Zora and headed to my destination.Damn, I must admit that this was the greatest taste of self-control I have ever had in my life. I didn't even know I could make it, staying in that elevator with Zora without stirring up romantic discussion.Seeing Zora again after so many weeks didn't ease the crazy desire I have for her. I never thought I could see her again after hearing from my manager at Zech Holdings that she had left Southampton after completing her project.She was still perfect, glowing as always.Only God knows how I felt being with Zora inside the elevator. Honestly, I never thought I could do it because every part of my body yearns for her kiss.I wanted to grab her and kiss the hell out of her, but each time I remembered the deal we made, I would retract my action.Her gaze wasn't concentrated on me. I bet no way she wouldn't realize that I wanted her kiss—I wanted to throw her to the wall and kiss her so bad.She wasn't

ZAYN—I was sweating, going through my contact list searching for who to call.It has been over five hours since Grandma was admitted to this hospital, and I haven't heard any positive, consoling news about her.Whenever I bumped into the doctor and asked him about my grandma's development, he would only reply with, "We're doing our best.""How am I going to forgive myself that my decision was what led to the sudden demise of my grandma?" I questioned myself, realizing that if I hadn't divorced Zora, all these catastrophic situations wouldn't have befallen me.I was about to dial Zora's contact when the doctor walked out of the ward Grandma was admitted to."Has she finally died?" I asked him, my mouth dried with drool."Calm down, Mr. Zayn. Your grandmother is okay, and you can go and see her.""Yes!" I screamed and hurried inside the ward. "Mama, you're awake," I said, touching her cheeks, making sure she's fully okay."Yeah. I'm okay. I forgot to take my medication before leaving t

MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 68: Can We Just Discuss Something Else?
ZORA —"Are you saying that Daisy isn't my baby?""Ah. No, I didn't mean to say that," I said, realizing my mistake—I had insinuated that Jason is just being foolish by taking care of a child that doesn't belong to him unknowingly."You are the only father Daisy has. I'm sorry for being mouthy. Trust me, I didn't mean that," I went on apologizing."It's fine. So let's go together since you insisted on picking her up. Maybe you're scared of Daisy transferring all the parental love to me."A smug grin tugged on my lips as I found that statement amusing."Let's go then," I said. I picked the car key from the table and led the way while he followed.We sauntered to the parking lot. I was heading to my car when Jason objected. "Are you planning on driving me?""Of course. Anything wrong with that?" I asked him, looking worried."Not at all. But I want us to go with my car. I should drive you with my car," he stated, heading to his car.I had no option but to follow him. Jason always likes
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 67: I'm Being Indifferent To Him
ZORA —I was in my office sorting out works that I intended to embark on once I'm back from break. Suddenly, the door was opened, and I turned with tension.No one opens the door of my office and walks in without my messenger informing me beforehand, seeking permission first from me, so I was scared of being in danger.However, the moment I saw Jason entering, I exhaled a deep sigh of relief. "You literally freaked me out," I commented, pouting my lips as I faked a cry, doing that baby girl look, and as expected, he walked closer to me and began petting me."I'm sorry, baby. Pardon my misconduct," he said, hugging me and using his cheeks to brush mine.Nonetheless, I noticed one of his hands was hidden behind his back. "What's in your right hand?" I asked him."Do you want to know?" He responded with a question, leaving me curious while adjourning the hand down to his butt area as I tried to find out."Calm down. It was even meant for you. But you have to close your eyes first so I ca
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 66: Mission Accomplished
ZAYN—I swallowed hard, my eyes rolling as I tried to quench the urge to sound harsh to him and tell him openly how he offended me."Nothing, Blake. I don't feel like going," I said, my gaze still on the kids.Blake sighed with frustration. "I think you're confused, Zayn. You don't know exactly what you want, and anyone helping you is just wasting their time on you. Do you know what it takes to organize a party? Making everyone leave their daily activities to join this party, which was organized solely because of you.""I'm not interested in any damn party, man! Call it off. What's the big deal there?" I barked at him, my tone venomous.He then let out a bitter chuckle. "I've helped you succeed with your mission, and now you're trying to kick me out of your life, thinking I'm of no use to you anymore?""You didn't help me with anything, Blake," I cut him short before he could finish his speech."How could you help me and be useful to me but only be backstabbing me?

MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 65: On A Mission
ZAYN —"No!" I roared, standing up from the couch and beginning to pace around the room.No way I'm going to let another man take away my child from me.Impossible!I reached for my phone and scrolled through the contact list; I wanted to call my pilot because I wanted to embark on a mission.I stared at my wrist, checking if I could make it on this mission that I'm about to embark on.As soon as the call was answered, I proceeded to deliver my message. "Hello, get the plane ready. I will be heading to Northville City. Expect me in the field in a short time," I remarked and quickly hung up the call without letting him say anything."Impossible!" I screamed again, dropping the glass cup of wine nonchalantly on the table and standing up, not minding the content pouring away."Another man can't claim my child on a platter of gold while I'm still alive," I grumbled, hurriedly dashing into my restroom to take a shower.About five minutes later, I was done with bathing, and I left for my ro
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 64: Information Uncovered
ZAYN—"Hello, Mr. Zayn. Always at your service. What's the deal this time?" He asked as soon as he answered the call.I took a deep breath before making my request. "I want you to investigate Zora for me. Heard she has a child, so I need you to confirm the maternity of the girl and the hospital she was birthed in in Northville City," I requested."Alright, but could you tell me the year of birth?" he requested, his fingers already typing on his keyboard as he began working on the request."Ummm..." I checked the girl's image on my computer to estimate her age and birth year."From her height, I would say she was born in 2019. But you should verify that as well. I will send you the girl's image so you can continue your investigation," I stated, forwarding the picture to Michael's email address."Got it, sir. I will give you feedback shortly," he said, and the call ended."Great," I muttered, clasping my fingers as I awaited Michael's response.Michael is a renowned detective who works
MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES 63: A Secret Agent
ZAYN—"You didn't tell me all this year that you have a secret baby with someone?" She commented, looking excited."I don't have a child anywhere, Grandma. I'm yet to figure out how I'm connected to this child," I responded, my last statement solely to draw her mind off the notion that the girl looks like me, although I know it's a clear fact."I'm doomed. God, what's my offense to give me this type of a grandchild?" She wailed, raising both hands up as she questioned her creator."Why are you determined to let your father's legacy be forgotten? You've refused to spend time with me and also don't want to give me a great-grandchild. At least if I have a great-grandchild, I would be a happy lady, but you said no. You abandoned me to die of loneliness.""Your father died out of his foolishness, and your mother couldn't bear his loss, and it resulted in her high blood pressure, which later took away her life years later after his demise, leaving you behind." She paused, dampening the tear
