MY CEO BESTIE AND ME Chapter 21 - Sending Lerisa away
Anthony approached his sitting room door and pulled it open, and he saw Lerisa standing there, looking beautiful in her long brown gown. The gown hid all her shape and her big boobs that Anthony had seen the previous morning at her home when he went to visit her family to see if she was alright. Lerisa smiled sweetly at Anthony, unable to explain what had brought her to his family house instead of just sending her regards through his mother. She smiled at Anthony again and greeted him, "Good morning." "Good afternoon, Lerisa. Why are you here?" Anthony asked, staring intently at her face and wondering why she looked so happy, unlike the previous night and days when she had a sad look on her face. Her face had also been red like a tomato then. "I came to see you and to apologize for leaving your birthday celebration early yesterday. I wasn't myself, so I had to go home and rest," Lerisa said, and Anthony finally made way for her to come into his sitting room. He asked her, "Did my

Lerisa nervously greeted Anthony's father, "Good afternoon, sir." "Welcome, Lerisa. How are your parents at home?" Mr. Joshua asked, and Lerisa replied, "Fine, sir." "Hmm," Mr. Joshua hummed as he settled into a dining chair beside his wife. Lerisa saw that the time was already after 1 PM, and she really wanted to leave Anthony's family house, if not for Anthony's mother asking her to join them for lunch. She wasn't expecting the whole family to have lunch together. It had been a long time since she joined Anthony and his family for a meal. Lerisa stared downward in embarrassment as she saw Anthony at the stairs. She knew he never used to disrespect his parents, even though their requests weren't always what he wanted. Anthony looked at Lerisa silently and then stepped downstairs into the living room before walking up to the dining table to join her for lunch. Lerisa was nervous as Anthony sat beside her at the dining table. She wondered if he was the same man who had been so co

Remy looked at Anthony and responded, "There's nothing to be sorry about."Remy was wearing a white top and blue jean shorts, while Anthony had on a yellow long-sleeve shirt and black pants.Remy remembered the young lady he admired so much—Lerisa, as Ben had mentioned her name. She felt a pang of jealousy thinking about Anthony being with Clara."How about Lerisa?" Remy asked. "I saw her at your birthday celebration yesterday. She caught Clara, or April—whatever her name is—kissing me yesterday morning, and I want to apologize to her. I was embarrassed to see her at your birthday. Where does she live? Can I have her mobile number? I really like her and want to marry her." Remy finally looked at Anthony, dismissing his butler.Anthony frowned and replied, "You cannot date Lerisa.""Why? Are you involved with her?" Remy asked, his tone direct.Anthony glared at Remy. "What do you mean by that? She's like a sister to me and a family friend. I am not involved with her.""So, why are you b

Lerisa walked into the living room and found her younger sister and mother engrossed in a lovely movie on the television screen that Sunday afternoon.She greeted her mother and subtly made her way toward the corridor leading to her room, but her mother called her back, "Lerisa, wait... Where have you been?"Lerisa paused at the entrance and heard Martha reply to their mother, "Mom, where else could she be? If not to see her lover, Anthony."Martha smiled, teasing Lerisa, but instead of smiling at the mention of Anthony's name, Lerisa glared at her younger sister.Mrs. Antonia noticed her first daughter's unhappiness at the mention of Anthony and remembered the failed engagement. She asked Lerisa, "What's wrong, dear?"Lerisa sighed and replied, "Nothing, Mom. I went to Anthony's family house after church to see him, but that doesn’t mean Martha should call him 'my lover' again. Anthony has made it clear to his parents that he can never marry me after they suggested courting me. I feel

Anthony arrived home that evening, unable to shake off thoughts about whether Lerisa truly liked him. He sighed and made his way into the mansion after parking his car in the garage.Mrs. Beatrice was unhappy with how Anthony had rejected Lerisa. She decided not to bring up anything related to Lerisa again, accepting in her mind, 'Maybe Anthony and Lerisa weren't meant to be.'Anthony walked into the living room and found his parents seated in the dining room. He greeted them, "Good evening, Mom and Dad," and walked toward the dining room to join them for dinner.Mr. Joshua wore a calm expression, while his wife, Mrs. Beatrice still frowned, recalling how unhappy Lerisa had looked when she left their house that afternoon.Anthony pulled out a chair and sat down at the dining table as Sandra served them soup and locally made fufu for their supper.He remained silent, washing his hands in the bowl of water that Sandra had placed on the table. After his mother blessed the meal, they began

Lerisa smiled faintly at Mark. She told him, "I know that we are friends, but I'm just trying to put some respect between us."Mark smiled and replied, "It's okay, Lerisa. I understand. But that reminds me, the boss called me earlier today and informed me that he wouldn't be in the office throughout this week.""Oh! Really?" Lerisa looked surprised that Anthony hadn't called her but had called Mark."Yes. Didn't the boss call you too? I know you both are close, so you might be aware. Or haven't you called him yet to find out why he isn't in the office today?"Lerisa's cheeks flushed red. She replied, "I forgot to...""That's fine. I know you hold the boss dear in your heart. Kindly take care of yourself and goodbye."After seeing Anthony holding onto Lerisa's arm closely the previous day in the office, Mark had already concluded in his mind that Anthony and Lerisa had gone intimate and were friends with benefits.He decided not to push further to ask Lerisa out, knowing she wouldn't ac

Benita was always the center of attraction back then and had many admirers on campus. This prevented Anthony from having the privilege to court her.He liked her figure and how sexy and curvy her hips were. Furthermore, he knew that most people usually thought that all handsome guys and beautiful ladies in school were already in a relationship.Anthony thought the same about Benita, which is why he decided not to chase after her then. He still liked her now, so he quickly read her chat, "Hey, Anthony! What's up?"Benita had sent the chat message to him about 30 minutes ago.Anthony quickly replied, "I am fine."Anthony saw that Benita was online and still typing to him.He became curious to chat with her since he was now single and ready to mingle.He loved fair-complexioned women, as that was his preference.Another chat popped up from Benita. She said, "I'm in town today, so I decided to visit you at your company. It's been a long time since we saw each other, Anthony. I cannot wait

Anthony sighed as the phone call didn't connect. He called Lerisa again and again, but even on the third attempt, she wasn't responding to his call."What's wrong? Why is Lerisa not picking up her phone?" Anthony wondered, considering that it might have to do with him telling Lerisa that he needed some time alone.Anthony sighed and decided to let it be. He was sure he would see her by Monday, or in church on Sunday, as he didn't want to visit her family house.He plugged his phone in to charge, exited his bedroom on the top floor, and went downstairs to the dining room to have dinner with his parents since the night had fallen.Mrs. Beatrice was glad to see that her only son wasn't looking sad like on previous days. She wondered why Lerisa hadn't visited their home since Monday and asked Anthony just as he settled into a dining chair across from her."Anthony, did you tell Lerisa not to come here again to visit us?"Anthony frowned a little at his mother's question, but his frown was

Anthony already knew Remy would be heartbroken, so he left and went back home to apologize to his parents, not wanting to add to Remy's agony.Remy already grasped the situation, and if Anthony hadn't been his cousin, he could have dealt with him for daring to come to his house and tell him directly that he had slept with his woman.After Anthony left, Remy went back into his house to nurse his broken heart.A month passed and after the trending news stopped, Remy went back to his business.

MY CEO BESTIE AND ME CHAPTER 108: Anthony's visit and apology
Lerisa hadn't stepped out of her father's house since she started trending. She was ashamed and couldn't face Remy. She couldn't tell Remy why she had broken up with him.Hearing her mother's voice, Lerisa rushed out of the house as she heard her mother shouting at someone. However, as Lerisa walked out, she saw Anthony drenched, with water dripping down his body.Anthony wasn't annoyed. He didn't want to leave until he saw Lerisa."Mom! What have you done?" Lerisa shouted, shocked to see that her mother had actually baptized Anthony with a bucket of cold water. Mrs. Antonia hissed and went back into the house, not wanting to answer Lerisa's questions.Looking back at Anthony, Lerisa offered her apologies to him. She did not know that Remy had arrived earlier, but seeing Anthony wet, Lerisa offered to bring James's clothes for him to change into."See them, shameless people," Mrs. Antonia muttered from her kitchen window. She should have known that she could not change her daughter's d
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME CHAPTER 107: Wedding annulment
Lerisa looked at her father sadly and said, "Dad, you cannot tell the Creed family that it's because of Anthony that you want to call off the wedding.""Then what should I tell them?" Mr. Fred asked. "You went to Anthony's house and ended up sleeping on his bed.""Dad, I don't want Anthony and Remy to quarrel because of me. They're brothers and...""You should have been aware that they were brothers and not comfortably slept with Anthony unclothed on his bed. I don't want to discuss this matter again. Mr. Joshua and his wife are equally disappointed, as they know this would cause a rift in their family, especially since Mrs. Samara is Mrs. Beatrice's only sister. Your actions have caused a lot of problems, but it will be settled. You can go." Mr. Fred dismissed Lerisa. He did not believe his wife at first, but after visiting the Gregson home, Mr. Joshua told him personally that his wife had been in tears, blaming Anthony as the cause."Why did Anthony not admit his feelings sooner? He
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME CHAPTER 106: Avoiding Remy
Remy already noticed that Lerisa wasn't sounding like her usual self. However, he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong with her. He donned a casual outfit, but he was still handsome and tall."Fine. If you say so, I will contact you tomorrow morning before going to work. Try to charge your phone, okay?" Remy said. As he looked at Lerisa's finger, where he had placed the engagement ring the previous day, he noticed that Lerisa had taken off the ring.He furrowed his brows and asked her, "Where's your engagement ring, Lerisa? Did you purposefully take it off? Where is it?"Remy suspected something fishy."I left it indoors," Lerisa tried to lie, but she wasn't good at lying as she spluttered."You left it indoors? Where? You know that you were not supposed to take this ring off. Fine, go inside and bring it, and you can wear it back. Right here in my presence," Remy insisted. He didn't know what was wrong with Lerisa. Just the previous night, he had called her, and she promised to call him b
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME CHAPTER 105: Seeing the mark
Mrs. Antonia frowned and accompanied James to Lerisa's room. Lerisa had cried herself to sleep on her bed. She was hungry and weak, but she didn't want to meet with anyone. She had also switched off her phone."Lerisa!" With a gentle knock on her daughter's room door, Mrs. Antonia called Lerisa. "Lerisa, are you in there?" Mrs. Antonia asked again, and Lerisa, feeling hungry, woke up.Lerisa pulled the door of her room open. Her mother and James gasped as they spotted her."Since when did you return?" Mrs. Antonia was the first to ask Lerisa, who looked sad, as did James."Not too long ago. Maybe after you and Dad left for church," Lerisa replied in a sad tone."What happened? Why do you sound sad?" Mrs. Antonia inquired. Lerisa shook her head and said, "Nothing, Mom. I am hungry."As Lerisa walked out of the corridor, Mrs. Antonia saw the red marks all over Lerisa's neck. She inquired, "Wait, Lerisa. What happened to you? Who beat you?"Mrs. Antonia rushed to examine her daughter's ne
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME Chapter 104: Anthony's apology
"Please, Lerisa, I am sorry," Anthony tried to apologize to Lerisa after his mother left his bedroom with a grimace.Lerisa started crying on the bed as she realized what she had just done with Anthony."What am I going to explain to Remy now? Remy loves me too," Lerisa cried, still sitting on Anthony's bed."You will tell Remy the truth, that you cannot go ahead and marry him," Anthony replied, as he wanted to touch Lerisa's arms again, not equally satisfied with the previous night's events with her. However, Lerisa pushed his hands away."No! It's easy for you to say, but I cannot do it. I cannot face Remy. I have to go home now." Lerisa stepped down from the bed, and Anthony admired her physique.Anthony got down from the bed, fully unclothed. Seeing him in that state, Lerisa remembered all that had happened between them the previous night; she wanted more but knew she had Remy to deal with and, more likely, her family too.Lerisa shook her head and wanted to search the room for her
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME Chapter 103. Their encounters
Anthony stood up from the tiled floor. He knew that it wasn't just him and Lerisa alone. Due to his silence and denial of his feelings for Lerisa, Remy had already engaged Lerisa, and now he was coming to break that bond. The media would become aware, and it would also cause a rift in their family.Lerisa sobbed, and Anthony hugged her closely, comforting her."I am sorry," he continued to apologize, and Lerisa knew that if she had to choose between Anthony and Remy, she would pick Anthony."I don't know what to tell Remy. I don't want to see you both fight because of me," Lerisa said as she turned her back to Anthony's chest.Anthony kissed Lerisa on the neck; he could no longer hold himself back. He had always restrained himself, but now that he had confessed his feelings to Lerisa, Anthony reached to undress her, and she didn't try to stop him. She wanted him badly and hadn't thought the day would come so soon.Lerisa held Anthony close, and they kissed as Anthony took her into his
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME Chapter 102. In Anthony's bedroom
"How could you lie to me, Anthony? I have been in love with you all these years, and you lie to me that I am just like a sister to you." Lerisa was in tears, and Anthony's heart broke. He turned Lerisa to face him, but she pushed his hands off just as his hands touched her arms."Stay away from me! You cheated on me; you pretended not to be in love with me, breaking my heart further with all your lies. Yet you know the truth that we are destined to be together. Why are you denying that, Anthony? Do you feel scared that you would hurt me in the long run and feel another man deserves me?"Lerisa was in tears as she moved away from Anthony. Anthony stood speechless; he loved Lerisa, but he couldn't admit it to her. He had also felt she saw him as an older brother, and it was only recently when she confessed her feelings to him—that she had been in love with him and couldn't bear to see him with other women—that he knew he had wronged her dearly."I am sorry," Anthony said, but Lerisa move
MY CEO BESTIE AND ME Chapter 101. Dinner with Anthony
Lerisa sat down next to Anthony at the dining table, and the maid served them dinner.Anthony's eyes were still glued to Lerisa's face as he saw her frowning. She was going to marry his cousin, so he shouldn't be entertaining the thought of snatching Lerisa from Remy.Anthony finally asked Lerisa, "Do you like the meal, or do you want me to order something for you?"Lerisa didn't look up at Anthony's face. She stared at her plate, which contained jollof rice and fried turkey legs for dinner. She eventually replied to him, "It's okay. I can manage it."Mrs. Beatrice smiled understandingly at Lerisa, not interfering; she soon blessed their meal, and they started eating.After dinner, Anthony's mother called his father, and Anthony spoke to his father for a while.Lerisa knew that she had switched off her phone to avoid her parents. She couldn't face them, so she waited for Anthony to show her to the guest room to rest.Anthony's mother was exhausted, admiring her son's house. She wanted
