“Sarah, kindly have these flowers returned to the sender and let them know to never send such things again,” Roxanne instructed her assistant once she called her to her office.

Sarah gulped and glanced at Roxanne gingerly. She seemed as though she had something to say.

Roxanne raised her head and arched an eyebrow, “Do you have something to say?”

Sarah was quiet for a few seconds. She opened her mouth to speak but then shook her head as if she had changed her mind and said, “No, ma’am. I’ll have the flowers returned immediately.”

Roxanne frowned when she noticed her assistant was acting strange. It was like she was avoiding her for some reason.

However, since Sarah had already left, Roxanne made a mental note to find out why she was behaving strangely later.

Later on, when Sarah returned, she asked for permission to be on leave for a few days. Since her workload had been overwhelming when Roxanne was on her honeymoon, Roxanne agreed and gave her a few days off.

    “Do you like it?” Henry asked Roxanne in a deep husky voice. When Roxanne stepped out of the mall, she gasped at what was in front of her. Henry was perched on the red dazzling Ferrari. It was filled with beautiful, deeply cupped double blossoms which had a vibrant ombre pink to apricot colour. These unique roses stood out and made the car look all the more beautiful. In addition, they emitted an intense sweet fragrance that surrounded the place. Henry looked so handsome. He was holding strings that connected to a few pink balloons in his right hand while his other hand was shoved into his pocket. “Is this for me,” Roxanne was so taken aback that she ended up asking the obvious. Her heart was pounding so hard in her chest. She had received flowers on the same day but only those from Henry made her heart flutter. Henry approached her while still holding the balloons. He gave her a dart and said, “Pop one balloon.” Roxanne was confused but she did what she was told. Sinc

    “Am I dreaming?” Roxanne’s eyes rounded at the goddess-like figure sitting across from her. She pinched her thigh to verify and when pain shot through her, she knew it was real. Yolanda Nicholson was in her office! How was this possible? The latter had crossed her long creamy legs. She was clad in a sexy black dress which accentuated her slim but perfect figure. Her blonde curls cascaded down her shoulders. She had a sharp nose and a tiny face with gorgeous large brown eyes. Roxanne understood why she was called the fairy of Brentwood City. Although Yolanda had left the country years ago, her fame still stood at its peak. Having her endorse a brand would have its stocks skyrocketing faster than a rocket. “How did you get here? I’ve been trying to contact you for weeks!” Roxanne couldn’t help but ask. She was even about to book a ticket to travel and meet her in person because attempts to get her response via email proved futile. Who knew the fairy of Brentwood city would grac

    Henry squinted his eyes at the person who had just walked into their meeting. He was meeting a few investors at Black to discuss the new investment company he wanted to form. ‘What is she doing here?’ He thought and glanced at Diego who scratched his head sheepishly. “Miss Nicholson asked what you were doing after work. I told her you had a meeting, I didn’t know she would show up here,” Diego quickly explained. The investors noticed Yolanda and immediately recognised her. One of them smiled and said, “Isn’t this the fairy of Brentwood city? I didn’t know she would be joining us for this meeting.” “Mr. Ford, what a pleasant surprise,” the other investor remarked. He glanced at the beautiful lady and invited, “Come and take a seat, Miss Nicholson. It’s an honour for you to grace us with your presence.” There was only one empty spot and it was the seat next to Henry. Yolanda bit her lip and glanced at Henry who had an expressionless face. He didn’t even bother to look at her bu

    “I knew her from my university days,” Henry explained while Roxanne was seated between his legs and he held her waist from behind. His back was resting on the headboard as he soothed his wife. “Were you two close?” Roxanne asked. The mere question made her chest squeeze painfully. She didn’t want other women to be close to her man! “I’ve only ever been close to one friend and that’s Adrian. The rest are just acquaintances. We had a few courses together but I majored in business and finance while she dropped out and concentrated on learning music,” Henry sighed. He didn’t know trying to lessen his wife’s burden would bring about such a huge misunderstanding. “Are you aware that she’s in love with you?” Roxanne continued to ask. “I had no idea… I was actually shocked when she showed up at Black,” Henry remarked. He tightened his hold around Roxanne and muttered, “Look, I only called her because I happened to see you trying to send emails to her. You looked so stressed and worr

  • Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Marry You.   Chapter 69~ Press conference

    Yolanda Nicholson fell in love with Henry Ford at first sight. However, she couldn’t confess her feelings for him because of their difference in status. She knew he needed a powerful woman by his side to be his equal. Still, she didn’t give up on him. Instead, she stopped what she was studying and studied music, hoping she would one day be famous and Henry would notice her. Years went by and she finally became famous. She had a lot of connections and made lots of money. Nevertheless, Henry still didn’t notice her for a long time. When she received a call from him, she was ecstatic, thinking he had finally noticed her and they would soon start dating. Little did she know he was already married to an equally powerful woman. After waiting for years, Yolanda realised she had been wasting her time all along. Perhaps if she had come clean about her feelings, she might have had a chance but now it was too late. Henry Ford wasn’t available. After being dismissed by Henry at Black,

    “If I were you, I would brag about it,” Heather said as she sipped on her mojito. She was referring to how Roxanne was currently a major shareholder of the Ford Corporation. “Do I have to? I’m shocked already… I didn’t expect to become a billionaire overnight,” Roxanne responded. She picked up her shot glass and took a shot of tequila before chewing on a piece of lemon. When she watched the press conference, her mouth almost dropped to the floor. She didn’t expect Henry to do that. Roxanne didn’t care about the rumours or what people were saying about her. Henry showed her he was committed and faithful to her so there was no reason for him to explain publicly. He didn't have to prove anything to anyone. However, she still felt touched. “I won’t lie… I’m kind of jealous,” Yolanda chipped in. She had her own glass with a cocktail in it. As promised, the ladies met in the evening to have a few drinks. Heather was introduced to Yolanda. At first, she was hostile towards her since

    Roxanne screamed in her mind. She placed her hands on Victor’s chest to push him away but her limbs felt weak. 'Let me go!' She wanted to yell but she couldn't as Victor had her lips sealed. A wave of disgust rushed through her body... it felt weird to be kissed by another man other than her husband. Her heart beat heavily like a drum as she felt her strength slowly leave her body. She was familiar with this feeling. When she just became managing director of the RG shopping mall, she was drugged. However, this drug seemed different as it was making her hot and itchy. Her stomach churned the more Victor forcefully kissed her. She tried to kick him but he had her pinned in place with his manly strength. Roxanne regretted letting her guard down when a hungry wolf was in proximity. Victor was kissing her like a crazed beast that had been released from its cage. Disgust coiled her gut. She managed to pull away and screamed, “Help! Mmh!” Her lips were sealed by Victor again. He

    “You’re lying,” Henry laughed. He went at it so hard that he threw his head back. Roxanne never ceased to amaze him. His gaze softened as he glanced at her and added, “You didn’t talk to five men. Bruce would have told me.” Roxanne pouted. She traced Henry’s six-pack and said, “I’m not lying… why won’t you just punish me?” “So you just want to be punished, that’s why you’re making up lies,” Henry remarked with amusement laced in his voice. “Why do you keep saying I'm making up lies? Aren’t you jealous anymore? I’ve been a very bad bad girl who deserves your punishment,” Roxanne breathed heavily when Henry’s shaft twitched between them. She glanced up at him and pointed out, “See, you also want to punish me.” “No, I don’t. You’ve been a good girl,” Henry said huskily. Roxanne sighed in disappointment. It seemed like Henry didn't want to touch her tonight. She was about to leave the shower when Henry added. “I want to reward you.” “Ah!” Roxanne squeaked when Henry scooped her up

  • Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Marry You.   Chapter 195~ She said yes

    Three years later... Henry Ford woke up very early. It was the month of love and a few days before Valentine's Day. As usual, he wanted to do something special for his wife as he asked her to be his Valentine. They had been married for ten years and he always asked her days before the actual day in a special and romantic way. Since this was about them, he wanted to do everything himself. He filled up some red balloons with air and scattered them around the sitting area downstairs and the dining area. After getting busy in the kitchen, he whipped up some breakfast for Roxanne- heart-shaped pancakes drizzled with syrup and strawberries covered in chocolate. He had seen this recipe from a trending video on t-i-k-t-o-k and thought his wife would love it. He then got the roses he had got for her and put them in a glass vase before placing them on the dining table. When Roxanne woke up and looked for her husband, she woke up to the transformed living room and dining room. She

  • Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Marry You.   Chapter 194~ Family braai

    Five years later… It was a Saturday and the Fords were hosting a family braai for their son, Oliver Ford, to celebrate his new age. Roxanne sighed as she glanced at Oliver who was helping his father, Henry Ford. They stood by the barbeque grill stand, flipping meat, sausages and chicken kebabs. Oliver didn’t want a huge party on his fifteenth birthday… he just wanted to spend time with family. However, Roxanne had invited Claire Hamilton and his other friends, Liam Kent and Jake Norton. They had all grown and were now teenagers. Running around playing tag like the younger kids didn’t interest them at all. Claire and the two boys sat at one of the tables. While Claire was taking pictures of Oliver, his friends were busy playing games on their phones. “Are you impressed with your son and husband?” Heather’s voice snapped Roxanne out of her trance. “They look so cute… I swear, Henry is a great Dad and Oliver adores him,” Roxanne replied, glancing at her husband dreamily as he

    Diego and Henry rushed to the mansion in less than twenty minutes as if there was an emergency. Henry looked for his wife when he entered the mansion, yelling, "Roxy? Baby, where are you? Let's go to the hospital!" At the same time, Diego followed after him and called for Yolanda, "Princess, let's go to the hospital. The earlier the better!" They both paused when they found their women in the living area laughing and chatting with Larry Ford and Kenneth Smith. Henry furrowed his eyebrows. He remarked, "I thought you said you're not feeling well. You look fine to me..." Larry Ford glared at his grandson. He scolded him, "Son, if your wife says she's not feeling well, then find out what could be wrong with her first before concluding. Should I teach you everything?" Henry scratched the side of his neck. He tried his best to be a good husband but there were times like this when he had faults. Being human, he was bound to make mistakes or maybe say something wrong. He wasn't perfe

    Two months had passed since Yolanda and Diego got married. Although they were happy, Diego had noticed that his wife missed her job. Yolanda was an independent woman who loved working for her own money... Of course, Diego provided for her but he could see that she wasn't used to staying home and shopping only. It would even affect her mood sometimes. Diego thought about a way to have his wife get back to her job. Quite alright, it would be dangerous for her to be in the spotlight with all their rivals targeting them but that was why he was around, right? It was his job to protect Yolanda and ensure her life didn't change just because she fell in love with him. So, before he could bring it up to her, he met with his brother and requested to move back to Brentwood City. Augusto glanced at Diego after he made his request, his brows furrowing as he asked, "What is it? Is this place not up to her standards?" "No... it's not that. I just want her to be happy and if doing her job mak

    Yolanda's heart was galloping like a racing horse. Diego's promise echoed in her mind, making her look forward to what he would do to her. She tilted her head up, asking for a kiss and Diego didn't disappoint. He connected his lips to hers and kissed her hard. They began to move towards the bed and Yolanda fumbled with Diego's buttons as she tried to undress him. Meanwhile, Diego was busy deepening the kiss with every second that passed. He grabbed the back of her head while the other hand reached between them and he stroked her core, rubbing her clit with every movement of his fingers. Yolanda moaned against his lips. She failed to get rid of Diego's suit and instead, wrapped her arms around his neck and jumped on him, coiling her legs around his ripped torso. In that position, Diego held Yolanda's ass and began grinding his massive erect shaft into her bare core... Despite it being hidden by the branded pants he had on, Yolanda could still feel the tip of his rod, digging at he

    Diego carried Yolanda into the cabin. Yolanda's eyes grew wide as she looked around. If she thought the outer form of the cabin was dreamlike, the inside was like paradise itself. The wooden cabin wasn't big. It was like one big room with a small kitchen in the corner, a huge bed in the center, a bubbling hot tub on the left near one of the windows and a bathroom on the right side. The bathroom area had an enclosure for privacy. Not only did they have several acres of land to themselves, but they were surrounded by maple trees with fiery red leaves which could be seen through the huge windows. The whole place was giving "leave the world behind vibes". It offered a perfect blend of romance, peace and refreshment for the newly married couple. "Are we still in our family's estate?" Yolanda asked and Diego smiled. He loved especially the way she used the word 'our' in her question. Sliding an arm around Yolanda's waist, Diego pulled her closer and then put her at his front bef

  • Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Marry You.   Chapter 189~ Finally found my missing rib

    Diego Montero realised something. He loved Yolanda with his all. Whether he waited weeks or months to propose, she would still be the woman he would want to spend the rest of his life with. Yes, they didn't know what tomorrow may bring. But who ever knows? Everyone jumps in without knowing the obstacles they will face in the future. If there's anything he learnt from his former boss, Henry Ford. It's that as long as you had your loved one by your side, any other problem felt like a passing breeze. After talking to his brother, Diego asked the housekeepers to help out with the proposal. Of course, the housekeeper who had helped Dahlia was fired. In the Mafia, loyalty was everything. Diego instructed the bodyguards to control the drones he had shipped over earlier before they travelled. Augusto helped too. He stood downstairs near the drones, waiting for midnight so that they could control the drones to help Diego propose. Yolanda woke up and they had dinner outside on the balc

    Diego didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He glanced at Dahlia and asked, "Why did you come back? If you had stayed hidden, at least I would have had good memories of you... but now... you disgust me." "D-Diego... that's not true. Your brother forced himself on me. That's why I faked my death. I was so ashamed-" "Shut up! Aren't you tired of scheming? Do you think I can believe you over my brother? My brother came from the same womb as I... we may fight and not speak to each other for years, but I know he would never do anything to hurt me," Diego's words sliced through the air like shards of ice, cutting Dahlia's words in the middle. "That's not true... why did you leave? It's because you hated your family!" Dahlia answered confidently. She wasn't convinced that Diego had moved on. He loved her very much and could do anything for her... how could his love for her end so quickly? Diego shook his head. He replied, "I left because I was hurt that they didn't want to avenge yo
