Mr. CEO We're Done! Approved And Ready
Georgia’s POV“You have always been sweet, Georgia,” Adrian said after he got off from Georgia.Without saying a word, Georgia got out of the bed and went into the bathroom to clean up. She did not spend much time there, because she really wanted to get away from here. Georgia came out and picked her bag, ready to leave.“No tip?” Adrian said, looking at Georgia with a sly smile.“What for?” Georgia asked, irritated.“Well, I did all the work, Georgia, why you just laid here like a log,” Adrian said.The words would have gotten to Georgia if she didn’t know who Adrian was, and what their deal was about. She internationally did not do anything at all, because this was more for Adrian than it was for her.“You have all the tip you need already, Adrian. You just had your way with a rising star; you should be thankful,” Georgia said.She would rather hang on a tree than give her money to anyone at all. Besides, if she could, she would have just paid Bonnie the loan instead of sharing a be

Vivian’s POVI refused to feel horrible about my argument with Belinda; she had been overstepping her boundaries anyway, even though I was already feeling like a mess.To keep me from being bored, as and a result, feeling regretful, I decided to check out some jobs on the internet. Maybe if I got lucky, I would get a job. I meant it when I said I did not want to lean solely on Syrus, and even though I knew I could not get a job that would miraculously give me the money to save Ted, I knew I just needed to get my life back on track.“You have been wasting away for too long,” I told myself. “It’s time to get back out there and get your life together,” I added as I continued to check through job sites.Most of the job openings I found that I felt I could do with a reasonable pay needed recommendation.“There you are, Vivian; hooked,” I said, feeling sorry for myself. Looking around me now, I realized that I had no one else to get a simple recommendation from, which was pathetic. I did n
Last Updated : 2024-12-05Mr. CEO We're Done! Disappointing
Vivian’s POVMore than ever before, I was ready to do what everyone expected of me; get the money to save Ted from Syrus Vale. In a way, they were right. If I hadn’t chosen to go with Syrus, my dad would never have had his first cardiac arrest, and Ted would not have needed to get his hands dirty. The days were going by really fast, reminding me that I had less time left. All of this just made me recall the first time they all found out about Syrus.That day, I had been in my room when Syrus’s call came in. Quickly, I shut the door, and if I had known, I would not have done that, because one of the rules they had forced on me was to never shut my door. I had a dressing room where I did everything girly that needed to be done without being seen or interrupted, but my main bedroom was never to be locked.“Hi,” I said with a gleeful grin when I picked Syrus’s call. “Hi, Viv,” Syrus’s husky voice had boomed through the receiver, making me blush over and over again.Being with Syrus and

Vivian’s POVQuietly, I came out of my bedroom and went to the living room. The hostility I met in the living room almost made me run back to my room.Dad, Manny and Ted were all glaring at me.“Vivian?” Dad started with a very gruff voice; one I had heard him only use on either Manny or Ted when they had done something really bad.“Yes, dad,” I answered meekly. Maybe it was the fact that I suspected that they already knew, that was why I acted guilty. Maybe if I had acted confidently, they probably wouldn’t have rounded me up like that.“Why did you have your bedroom locked?” Dad asked, looking at me squarely. “You know it is against the rules to leave your bedroom door locked,” he added grossly.“But this isn’t fair,” I said calmly. “What isn’t?” Dad asked me.“Why don’t I get to lock my bedroom but Manny and Ted are always locking theirs whenever they choose?” I dared to ask.I could literally feel Manny and Ted’s intense gaze piercing into my skin.“So we are now questioning the
Last Updated : 2024-12-06Mr. CEO We're Done! Lock The Doors
Vivian’s POVAfter that declaration by my dad, everything else became tumultuous, until I eventually, stubbornly, moved out to be with Syrus, forfeiting my inheritance in my family.As I turned and looked at Syrus in the apartment he rented for me now, I made up my mind, yet again, that getting the money from him was the right thing to do. If she could leave her family for him, then he might as well save them from losing Ted to the cruel hands of a ruthless drug lord. “Are you going to shut the door and come in?” Syrus asked me, confused as to why I am still standing by the door and looking lost.“Aren’t you going to ask me why I am here?” Syrus asked sarcastically, but I did not get his sarcasm.My head was still trying to get around to asking Syrus for the money.“Why?” I asked lamely.“The last time I was here, you acted as though I shouldn’t be,” Syrus said, shrugging.Then when I did not say anything else aside staring at him, Syrus looked closely at me, worried.“Vivian, what i
Last Updated : 2024-12-06Mr. CEO We're Done! The New CEO
Syrus’s POVThe moment Syrus dashed out of the apartment, he hurried into his car and sped off. He took out his phone and read through the text message he had received when Vivian was still ranting.“I have found what you hold dear the most, Syrus Vale, and I am going to destroy your world with it.”Syrus could not stop thinking about it. If this was true, then he truly had a lot to be worried about. That singular message brought back Syrus’s dark past that no one knew about, not even his own mother. Years back, a man from the family’s company had visited them uninvited. At first, Nancy had been skeptical about letting them in; since Syrus’s father abandoned her, she became angry and bitter towards everyone that was closely associated with Mr. Vale. At that time, Syrus had just finished college, and was still thinking of what next he would do with himself.“What do you want here, Anderson?” Nancy had asked rudely.Syrus and Bonnie sat beside her on the sofa while Anderson, a senior
Last Updated : 2024-12-07Mr. CEO We're Done! The Need To Step In
Syrus’s POVSyrus was not just shocked, but weak. All his life, he had been told that he would inherit his father’s company. The Vale company was one of the biggest companies in the country, who wouldn’t look forward to taking over? “I don’t understand, Anderson,” Syrus told Anderson.He might be young, but he knew the consequences of what Anderson had just told him.“This wasn’t what you said back home yesterday,” Syrus reminded him, his heart beating rapidly, in case he had forgotten what he said. “I know exactly what I said, Syrus,” Anderson said. “But you don’t expect me to just spill this out to the women, do you? Your mother and sister would not be able to take it like a man would,” Anderson added. “Nancy would literally die, and that would be on me.”Syrus nodded; Anderson was right. Now, Syrus understood Anderson’s words better when he said coming to see him was important when giving him his complimentary card. “Besides, it is not official yet, so the board would have my he
Last Updated : 2024-12-07Mr. CEO We're Done! Sudden Realization
Syrus’s POVOn his way home, Syrus had felt grateful for the timely intervention of Anderson, and for the first time, he had been upset with his father.“You would have ruined things for me and left me with nothing,” Syrus said with clenched teeth. He knew his father was gallivanting around the world with the love of his life, but because they were all still financially catered for financially, he never knew that things were bad, and Syrus was certain that his mother had no idea about this. If not for Anderson, Syrus and his mother would have been disgraced and shamed nationally, and the company would have been handed to someone else completely.On the other hand, Syrus felt cornered. Anderson literally twisted Syrus’s hand, and Syrus, desperate to fix what he was at the brink of losing, agreed without hesitation. Anyway, as long as he did not demand for shares in the company, Syrus felt he could manage things.He looked at the note Anderson scribbled to him with an address. The addr

Mr. CEO We're Done! Feeling Of Betrayal
Syrus’s POVAs I drove back home, I could not help but ponder on the words of Anderson. I tried to get him to tell me what he meant, but he kept insisting that I should meet my mum.“She is the right person to tell you all you need to know,” Anderson had said tiredly. “It is not in my place, because your father made me swear not to tell you.”Syrus wasn’t even thinking about his father, because he had stopped seeing him as his father years ago. He was more concerned about what his mother knew that she wasn’t telling him. Syrus was certain that he knew everything that happened between his parents. He eavesdropped. He overheard, so what else could possibly have happened that he didn’t know about? Syrus could remember his father coldly telling his mother that he was done with the marriage. Syrus could also remember the sound of his mother’s hurting voice, and her plea for him to leave his mistress and focus on his family, but he had been adamant. Syrus’s father had slammed the door and n
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Real Enemy
Vivian’s POVI still could not get over the shock of what Marie said to me about Mr. Vale reaching out to Syrus and Bonnie without getting a response at all. All these years, from what I got to know about Syrus and his family, their father never made an attempt to reach out to them after their parents got divorced. In fact, he had practically abandoned them, but now, Marie had just given me the side to the story that I never knew existed. I knew I shouldn’t take all her words for it simply because she was a kind woman. A woman in love could practically cook up lies just to make her out as the better woman. Any wife who was being cheated on would be mad as hell; I was a perfect example. After what Syrus did to me, there was no way I wouldn’t be cross with him. I had even decided to keep the triplets to myself, so I totally understood the grievances of Nancy, even though she was a mean and callous woman to me. Anyway, Marie didn’t get the chance to continue because I had to get regis
Mr. CEO We're Done! She Has The Answers
Syrus’s POVSyrus stared at Anderson, and even though it was a little dark because it was quite late, he could see how deteriorated his condition was.“Anderson,” Syrus said through a rasped breath. He had no idea that Anderson had gotten this worse. Syrus might have been busy and occupied with other things, especially with all that had been going on with him recently, but he always ensured that Anderson’s medication bills were paid in full, including his salary and other bonuses, which was why he was shocked to see Anderson in this situation.But Anderson was smiling.“You took longer than I thought. I thought I was going to die without seeing your face,” Anderson said.“I shouldn’t have taken this long to come,” Syrus said and meant it. “I didn’t know that the illness had eaten this deep into you,” he added.“No man is ever going to live forever, Syrus. The most important thing is that they are on the right path,” Anderson said through labored breath. “I am not a sad sick man livin
Mr. CEO We're Done! That One Man
Syrus’s POVSyrus drove through the city at night, trying to maneuver his way around.He could barely recall the address, but he knew that he had to locate it. Years after Anderson introduced Syrus to the Frenchman and Syrus was able to bring the company back to its feet, he kept Anderson employed. His mother never liked it. In fact, she antagonized Syrus for years.“You should fire him, Syrus. He maintained a close relationship with your father even after knowing the pain and heartache he put us all through,” Nancy repeatedly told Syrus.“That would be you asking me to fire all the board members and senior staff, mum,” Syrus had told Nancy, but she had been adamant.“Then fire them and replace them all if need be!” She had said fiercely.“Mum, these are people who have worked hard in the company. They know exactly what they are doing. I cannot fire them out of the blues and just replace them like a pair of shoes. It could bring down the company, and you know this,” Syrus had argued r
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Intruder
Vivian’s POVMarie wiped her teary eyes and continued, and I was more curious than ever to hear all about it.“So instead of Vale to have an impersonating staff member fired, he asked me out for dinner,” Marie said.“In front of everyone that he had already bragged that he was getting you fired?” I couldn’t help but ask.One thing I realized about this conversation which Marie began without warning is that it eased whatever we were both feeling in our hearts. Before now, Marie had been troubled about Mr. Vale’s health, and I had been troubled about the revelation I got about my family from Leon, but now, we both just seemed happy. It was as though the love that she shared; the same one I had resented before now was a soothing balm to me. It reminded me of the love and thrill I had felt with Syrus when we initially met years ago. It had been intense and deep, and it had been the best time of my life, and surprisingly, the memory of it did not fill my heart with anger as it usually woul
Mr. CEO We're Done! Intertwining Love Stories
Vivian’s POVI stayed with Marie in the hospital after we took Mr. Vale to see his doctor at the hospital. We hadn’t exchanged a word, and there wasn’t even a need to. As we sat close to each other, I heard Marie mumbling words of prayer to God for Vale. I couldn’t hear the words she spoke, but somehow, I was deeply touched. As much as I would love to resent them, there was no doubt that they loved each other like never before.“Marie?” The doctor called.We both stood up straighter and looked at him. Marie had been so soaked in her supplication and I had been immersed in her devotion to him that we both hadn’t noticed the presence of the doctor.“How is he?” Marie asked instantly. I found myself praying and wishing that nothing bad would happen to Mr. Vale. Not that my feelings towards him for abandoning his family had changed, nor my feelings towards Marie for taking a man away from his family had changed, but I still didn’t want him to die.If I didn’t want someone as dangerous as
Mr. CEO We're Done! Sealed Lips
Syrus’s POV“I have been asking you if you have anything to say to me, but you keep evading the question,” Nancy said as she stood in Syrus’s bedroom. Bonnie was also present.Syrus felt like a piece of shit, because of the news that was flying around on the internet. He should have known that confrontation with a man like Ken alone was a bad idea, but then again, no one knew this part of Syrus’s life. Even Vivian who almost got to know, Syrus managed to keep her in the dark, but now, things were slowly getting out of hand. Ken had been so good and smart with what he was doing that he ensured that his face was faced out of the camera. The only person the world could see was Syrus, and of course, to them, he was trying to kill an innocent citizen simply because he was wealthy and powerful. Syrus had stayed holed up in the house, because right now, he could not bear to face the judgmental faces of everyone that knew him, including the colleagues that he hired himself.“What the heck
Mr. CEO We're Done! Drenched In Dread
Vivian’s POVThe revelation I got from Leon still had me reeling with shock. Hearing that Dad had used up our inheritance and wanted to give me out in a contract marriage to pay off his debt, I had thought that that was the height of betrayal from my family members, but this was worse than I could take.Ted now had blood in his hand!I shuddered at the remembrance of it. Thankfully, when Leon brought me back to the house, Marie and Mr. Vale had been too engrossed with having their lover’s time together to even notice that I was drenched in dread, so I had just delivered what I was sent and I went into my room. I could not even bring myself to eat anything. In fact, the thought of food made my stomach retch.This was no longer a case of drug dealing; it was a murder case. First of all, Ted had gotten involved in drugs, which was even a great crime in the country. Then he had killed Jane in cold blood simply because she had betrayed him. To make things even scarier, he had planted a pi
Mr. CEO We're Done! Confrontation Gone Wrong
Syrus’s POVSyrus got home at past midnight, drenched and drained. His mission with Ken had failed woefully. After asking Ken that question, Ken had laughed at him to scorn.“If you didn’t, then who did?” Ken had asked without remorse. “You were the one with the wedge hammer that day; I only walked in and saw that you had just murdered the Frenchman,” Ken had said.Syrus had almost fallen defeated, because on a face level, that had been what had happened, but Syrus was determined to get to the bottom of it. More than anything else, he wanted to get this guilt hanging over his head; this guilt that Ken was now threatening to use against him. Syrus was a businessman, and he knew what deadly scandals could do to his company. Once the news got out and the world knew that he had murdered someone, he would never recover from it, and Syrus had gone too far to let anything stop him now. He had sacrificed too much to let a sin from the past crawl up to destroy everything. “I don’t remember an
