....

It was nighttime when Katherine agreed to eat, refusing to dine at the table with Anderson. Trina had just filled him in on that information and walked out when Tony returned from the hospital, the sonogram report and James's medical report in his hand.

"Mr. Riecke," Tony walked up to him, announcing his return.

"Tony, I was expecting you sooner."

"I was told to stay until the operation was completed. It was successful." Tony said, walking up to the table and dropping the doctor's report on it.

"The doctor's report and receipts for the hospital bills."

Anderson nodded, "how about that one?" He asked, noticing another envelope in his hold that he made no move to drop.

"Oh no sir, this is for your wife. I was going to take it to her. She left in the car yesterday."

"You can leave it, I'll take it to her." Anderson grabbed his glass of water and took a drink. Dropping the glass, his brows narrowed when he noticed the smug smile on Tony's face.

"What?"

    ...Anderson grabbed the spare laptop in his office lobby, connected the USB, and scrolled through with the cursor for the footage. Being the only file on the USB, he clicked it open and played the video. It started from the moment Katherine walked into the room, being closely followed by James.It went on for a few seconds and Anderson tapped the volume key continuously, glancing at Jude with a grimace, "Why is there no sound?" "There was a problem with the footage. The hotel wasn't interested in the sound anyway, but you can fix it if you want?" Anderson nodded and his eyes went back to the screen. Watching. Waiting. Hoping. With the postures and gestures, Anderson could tell Katherine was truly trying to convince him. It was something he was familiar with.On two occasions, he saw her express shock and he figured it might be from James's revelation to her concerning Renard's suspicions. But Anderson wasn't bothered about any of that at that moment, so he kept watching and not tr

    ...Katherine sat in the car, waving back at Adam who stood at the entrance. She settled into the cushion seat of the car as the ride started off to a destination she still had no idea about. "Where are we going?" She asked, even though she already knew Tony wouldn't tell her if Anderson didn't permit him to. "Mr. Riecke doesn't want me to reveal." Katherine nodded, sighed, and relaxed back into the seat, staring out of the window. The journey went on for thirty minutes and ended at a beach, an empty beach and Tony alighted to open the car door for her. Katherine climbed out of the car and stared at the area. The air was nice and the sound of the waves, drizzled into her ears, giving her a happy overwhelming feeling, but Katherine didn't see Anderson anywhere. "Where is he?" She turned to Tony, but his gaze was behind her. She trailed it, turning again, and found Anderson behind her. He was dressed in his work outfit, but without the Armani suit. "Come here," he said and she gri

  • Mr CEO Is My Baby's Daddy   Throwing a fit

    Anderson was still before Katherine on one knee by the time she lowered the phone from her ear, her eyes lighting with an emotion he couldn't decipher. For a moment, she lowered her gaze; unable to utter a word. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" She asked, fiddling with her fingers."Why does it matter?" "Because I-" Katherine pursed her lips, heaving a sigh, a bustle of relief jumping in the pit of her stomach. "I thought you were a murderer. A psychopath. I thought I was wrong about you, you should have said something." "You don't know me," Anderson reminded. "But I know you're not a murderer. I wasn't wrong about that one, right?" Katherine wasn't aware of the smile that formed on her lips. Anderson nodded. She was happy. She hadn't smiled at him since the function, he hadn't torn out any expression from her except one that depicted rage. He had seen her cry for James, watched her sob like a kid because she thought James was dead. Now, she was smiling over a simple phone call.

  • Mr CEO Is My Baby's Daddy   Apologise, pumpkin.

    ...Katherine glanced at her side when Anderson joined her on the bare sand, his gaze strolled from her body down to her feet buried under the sand. He couldn't understand how she derived fun from this activity. They'd been together for five years but her love for the beach still didn't rub off on him. "Have some fruits," he dropped the platter on a small stand. Katherine dart a brief stare at the platter and looked away. Anderson understood the gesture and picked a slice of watermelon, plopping it into his mouth and chewing loud enough to her hearing. Katherine returned her gaze to the platter and grudgingly took a cutup banana. Soon, she was eating the fruits wholeheartedly, and that was when he realized she had exhausted the cookies, leaving only crumbs on the plate. He opened his mouth to tell her how he was right about her appetite but closed it on a second thought. He wasn't in for another argument with her. She seemed to love that activity a lot now, too. "Did you give S

    ...Anderson was surprised when Katherine didn't push him off or make any attempt to stop him. Her knees remained soaked into the ground as his fingers slid into the waist band of her panties. Brushing against her cunt, Katherine froze as a delicate sensation overwhelmed her. He was still undressing but her pant was already soaked in juice. She started to clamp her thighs when his finger brushed her core again, but Anderson separated it. She shut her eyes and exhaled sharply as his hands loosened the material and pushed it down. The pant was now hanging around her thigh, when he grovelled beside her on his knees; drew her waist up until her back was arched to his comfort and slid his finger with a hungry force into her, his other hand wrapped around her waist. Katherine gasped, arching her back even more as though enabling him the permission to explore her as much as he wanted. He didn't need her permission anyway, but for a second he thought she was going to struggle for a while.

    ....Anderson tucked his hands into his pant pockets as James was wheeled into the lobby by his caregiver to see them. He had a pale look on his face and a flash of anger in his eyes, it was something Anderson and Jude saw evidently. "Wait," Jude held Anderson back when he started to walk towards him, "I'll talk to him first." James' caregiver left him to their care and walked out, leaving the three men in the hall. "Why is he here?" James asked Jude, seething just at the sight of Anderson. Anderson tried not to smirk at his question but instead kept his blank gaze plastered on James despite the glare he constantly threw at him. "Uh, to see you," Jude spoke calmly. "He wanted to see how you were doing before you get discharged." "Well, I don't want to see him. I don't ever want to see his face--"Bold of you to think seeing you is something I want to do too," Anderson scoffed and Jude threw him a warning look."See? Did you see that grouchy attitude again?" "You both need to ca

    ...."Anderson wait.." Anderson yanked his hand from Jude's grip, "no, Jude. Don't fucking try to convince me. This is all over! There's no way, I'm serving as a caregiver for that backstabber!" "He's a backstabber alright, but this is your only way out of a future court case." "Do you not get it, Jude--"I do! But you asked me to help you and that's exactly what I'm doing. It's just for a few days, and I know you can do it, Anderson. Isn't Horatio launching a big project soon? Do you think having a court case at a crucial and vulnerable time like project Alexander, is a good move for Alexander's success?" Anderson shut his eyes and heaved a sigh, it annoyed the fuck out of him knowing how right Jude was. He had never craved to be right so badly in his life..."The elite invested in project Alexander, Anderson. Top business people put in their resources for the success of that project, they trusted Horatio with their shares and money. Do you not think being involved in a court cas

    ....Katherine freed her palm from Renard's, squinting her eyes. "What deal?" She appeared invested.Renard immediately let out a smile as he adjusted his seat towards the table, "tell me when this marriage thing with Anderson will be over and I'll not say a word about your pregnancy to him or anyone else." "And what do you get out of it?" "The CEO position. You get paid for your services and I get what I want." "Well, I would have liked to help you achieve your desire but unfortunately, there is no contractual relationship between Anderson and me. And why do you even think I'd agree to a deal with you?" "Because you're desperate. And I know there's something going on with you and Anderson because why else would you want to keep your pregnancy a secret from him when you're both married, knowing he'll find out about it sooner or later? It just doesn't add up." "I don't know how else to prove anything to you if you don't believe me."Renard scoffed, "how can I? I'm no simp like An

    "When did you arrive?" Jude asked after handing her a cup of coffee. "Two hours ago. Would have arrived earlier but there was a little trouble with the flight." "I hope it was nothing serious. You're okay, right?" "Oh, not at all. And I'm fine," Hope smiled. Jude lowered his gaze to the ground like there was something interesting there and an awkward silence fell between them. "How have you been?" Hope broke the silence. He started with a slow repetitive nod, "Good. Really good. You?" "Same," Hope nodded. "I was driving to Dad Xavier's to pick up Katy's kids, so I thought I'd stop by and say hi since I was close. You'll be at the party, right?" "Yeah, I'm all dressed up for it." "Oh good," Hope breathed out, wrapping her palms around the mug. As much as she didn't like how silent they were, she expected it. It's been seven years and she suddenly appears in front of him without a word. She had hoped to ask him to accompany her to Xavier's or probably expected him to su

    *** _*Six_Years Later*_ *** Renard's fingers caressed the package as he spoke on the phone to his mother. "Ugh, Mom! I told you I'm not going." "Just this once, Renard. It's not like you attended the previous ones. How long do you plan to distance yourself? They're your niece and nephew!" "Do you have to keep calling me every year for the same thing? I have work to do, if I slack Anderson wouldn't take it lightly. You know how he is. I can't stand him," Renard fused. "Even Marcus will be there, you think you're the only one who has work to do? Besides we both know Anderson wouldn't trouble for missing one day." Renard grumbled, taking the gift off his thigh. "If I go this once, will you stop calling me concerning it?" "I'll give you a break for the next two years." "Four," he bargained. "Three years. I can't believe we're bargaining this! It's not even supposed to be this serious." "You're making it serious, Mom.

    ***"Careful," Anderson cautioned, his palms resting on her bare baby bump. They both giggled as she successfully sat on him, her weight falling on him. She touched his chest to support her balance, and Anderson quickly adjusted to the weight. Katherine began moving her waist in circular motion and riding him slowly. Amidst the waves of pleasure, Anderson's eyes remained plastered on her, fearing that she might fall and ready to grasp her if she did. "Do you really have to do this?" He asked, guiding his hands to her waist. "Yes," she answered. "Relax and enjoy. I'm fine," she said, leaning slowly to kiss his chest. Anderson threw his head back, the pleasure slowly grasping him more than he could control. "About Marcus-Anderson sighed, "is that what this is about?" "No," Katherine denied, moving her hands to his chest and teasing his nipples with her fingers. "Fuck Katy, this is so goddamn good," he groaned and she smiled, loving how she gained control of him in a short space

    ***"200 meters is just perfect, if there are any changes I'll let you know beforehand," the client stood up."Please do, sir," Leila stood up with him. "Until then, we'll have the garden ready for you and yours " He smiled, "Perfect. If you're available, please attend." With that, he slipped an invitation card into her hand. "Oh," Leila hesitated, "I'll see what I can do." After a handshake, Leila picked up her stuff and walked out. In her car, which she managed to get back with her earning, Leila made a happy dance. She was elated and above all, she was glad she was finally doing something that would make her boss pleased with her again. After losing a rental deal a week back, Leila had tried to make up for it. She noticed Jude's unwillingness when she asked to be in charge of this project, but he eventually handed it to her. Amongst the twelve clients, ten were willing to patronize them, one was going to think about it and the last person already booked elsewhere. Leila coul

    ***Jude didn't miss the discontented look on Bianca's face when he walked in with Leila. "Hey," she forced a smile, "I didn't know you were bringing someone with you. We didn't discuss that." "She's my secretary and will be in charge of the meeting. She'll answer all of your questions and explain to you what to expect if your father's corporation partners with us." "Oh secretary," Bianca emphasized, relaxing. "I don't mind." "Where's your father, I expected to see him here with you." "Oh he's not coming," she winked. "He wants me to talk to you first and if I like what you're proposing, we automatically have a deal. So it's all in my hands now." "Okay," Jude shrugged, "so let me start with-"Hold on," Bianca's leaned over the table to touch him. Jude jerked away from her hold, glaring at her, "Why don't we eat first? It's a dinner date remember." "Not a date," he reminded. "Right," she chuckled softly. "Over here, waiter." A waiter approached their table at once, "What are y

    ***"Leila-" The door went open and she quickly turned away, wiping the tears from her eyes while trying to gain composure of herself. Jude's brow narrowed as he opened the door wider and walked in, his gaze first landed on the skinny tall man in his secretary's office and then on Leila whose back was at him. "I need you to make me some coffee," he said. "I'll be there, sir. Please give me a second," she answered, trying her best to give a straight response despite the sound of her voice. "Who is he?" Jude asked, staring at the unknown man that wore a frown. He didn't plan on interfering but the atmosphere in the room was something he didn't want any of his guests to meet. "H-he-" Leila stuttered. "I'm her husband," the skinny man replied, darting a cold stare at Jude, "you must be the boss." "Alex, please leave.." Leila tried to interfere. "What? I can't meet your boss? You said you were scared, should I tell him on your behalf then?" "No, get out!" Leila snapped, her voice

    ***Jude walked into his office, he turned around only to find Leila stirring his coffee as she spoke on the phone. Her body was in a different direction but her hand didn't stop moving the spoon in a circular motion. She was carried away and seemed to be pissed with whoever she was talking to on the phone. Jude noticed this and paused, watching her multitask. It was her first day without Ria's assistance and she was already giving him an idea of how berserking she could be. "I told you I'm fine, I don't need your money. Please stop calling me, you could get in trouble," She hassled. "Stop talking to me, I don't want any more problems between you guys." "Please don't say another word to me, Mom. You know I'll never agree to it. I can't move back in, don't you understand?...The other words strolled off his hearing. Mom? She was arguing with her mother? Jude squinted his brows. "I'm hanging up, please don't call me again. I'm fine and I don't need your help. I'm not worth losing yo

    ***"Sir?" Jude looked up from his computer to find Ria, his secretary walking in. "I brought the monthly accounts for the three hotels in Northridge. I already reworked them and piled in the conclusion. Please check and tell me if there's a problem." Jude took the papers from her and went through each page briefly. Knowing her capabilities, it didn't take him a lot of time before he started nodding in satisfaction. She had worked for him for four years and had proven countless times to be competent. Left to him, he wished he could make her stay. "What do you think? Is it good, sir?" She asked when he dropped the file. "Yeah. All good." "Really?" He shot her a stare, "is there a problem?" "Not really but the intern actually worked that out. It wasn't my doing." "Intern?" He looked lost for a minute before it hit him, "Leila?" "Yes sir. I gave them to her two days ago and made my workings too just in case, but checking them I realized she did quite a good job with the balanc

His grip was too strong for her resistance and soon she relaxed and focused on catching up with his long step in her six inches heels. "What the hell," she breathed out when he finally stopped and released her, pushing her ahead of him roughly. "What the hell is right. Now, what the hell are you doing here?" He growled at her. She huffed, crossing her arms. "To see you obviously, who else do I know in this stinking rich organization." Renard grimaced, "I don't recall inviting you, and I cut all ties with Suzy and everything that has to do with her so why the hell are you here?" "Jeez chill, I didn't come to bother you," Anna assured, tucking her hair behind her ear, "You're the only one I could come to because you're the only one I know that knows Suzy." "So?" "I came to drop off her stuff. I'm leaving the country first thing tomorrow and her stuff are in my way.
