Mr. CEO We're Done! Failed Appointment
Vivian’s POV My stomach churned in annoyance. I had hoped that Syrus would fail, so that I would have an excuse not to get him involved, but it seems that he took the whole thing more seriously than I anticipated.“Welcome, Syrus,” Doctor Pedro greeted Syrus with a grin.I gritted my teeth to prevent me from screaming in anger. It was just painful to see that everyone else adored and liked Syrus without knowing how hurtful he could be. Syrus wore one of his suits that suited him well like it was made personally for him. The first time I saw Syrus in that pair of suit, it was as though he had fallen off from a magazine. I took my eyes away to avoid looking at him, or even catching me staring.“Why would I not make it?” Syrus deliberately turned to me with a quizzical gaze.“Well, you are almost late,” I said defensively.“Almost, but not late. According to my wristwatch,” Syrus said glancing at his expensive watch, “I am right on time,” Syrus said, his voice reeking of arrogance and pr
Last Updated : 2024-10-08Mr. CEO We're Done! A Crazier Idea
Vivian’s POV The moment I got out of the hospital, I walked so fast that even if Syrus intended to catch up with me, it would not be easy for him. I ensured that I came out first and fortunately, found a cab waiting. The last thing I wanted was Syrus following me out of the hospital and blaming me for ruining our first appointment.I knew that it was my fault, but I would rather swallow a frog than admit that it was my fault.I described Belinda’s address to the cab driver and he sped off immediately. Instinctively, I turned to check if Syrus had attempted to catch up with me to explain things, or even ask me how I was faring, but I caught sight of him leisurely walking out of the hospital and walking straight to his parked car without even looking around.More than I would like to admit, it hurt me deeply that Syrus was being so nonchalant about my feelings and emotions. By tomorrow, I would have to see him in that office again, and there was nothing I could do about it. I placed my

Vivian’s POVI felt better after visiting Belinda and talking about the hospital episode with her. It was even easier than I thought to admit to her how everything had made me feel, and even better that she did not judge me at all, instead, came up with a wild idea that she had me smiling and shaking my head as I did my job the next day.The appointment was not until hours later, and although Belinda had fought to go with me for moral support, I managed to dissuade her; it wasn’t necessary, and besides, I did not want Syrus to think I came with someone to bully him, because that is exactly what Belinda was hoping to do…bully the jerk.Then Belinda had given me hours of strict lectures about her extremely crazy idea. At first, I did not want to deal with it, but then again, Syrus wasn’t exactly a wonderful husband to me, and it just seemed like the right thing to do. My head was bowed and engrossed with what I was doing, plus the thoughts in my head that I did not see Dan show up in f
Last Updated : 2024-10-09Mr. CEO We're Done! The Audacity
Vivian’s POVI stared at Georgia, and for some seconds, I did not know how exactly to react at her audacity. “How did you know I work here?” I asked. It was not the question I had wanted to ask, but then that was what came out of my mouth instead. This was my workplace, and certainly not the place for this kind of conversation. Well, maybe Georgia knew that she couldn’t show this level of audacity without getting a piece of how I felt if she had accosted me in a different place. Before Georgia could open her mouth to speak, the two ladies, who always talked about her walked in and saw Georgia. They gasped, star-struck.“Oh my goodness!” They screamed in delight and rushed over to us. I could see the look of pride in Georgia’s eyes at their reaction and the smile that played on her lips was that of mischief, and I rolled my eyes in disgust.“It is really you, Georgia!” the squealed in delight as they spoke together at once, as though they had been preparing for this day for years.

Syrus’s POV “You are fifteen minutes earlier,” Doctor Pedro said as I walked into his office, surprise written all over his face. I smiled and sat across from him. “Yes, I am,” I said.“Then let’s hope Vivian will not keep us waiting today,” Doctor Pedro teased.I nodded and said with a smile, “Let’s hope so,” But deep down I wanted Vivian to be late so that I could gloat.Knowing her plans now, I did not want to take any chances. This would be the first time I would be a father, and I would not take any chances at all. When Georgia had told me about it, I almost did not believe her.“Vivian is pregnant with triplets,” Georgia had blurted out the moment she stepped into the living room.“Excuse me?” I had been very confused“You heard me right, Syrus,” Georgia said as she sat next to me.“How did you know?” I asked. Not that I believed completely, because before the divorce, there were no signs that Vivian could be pregnant, although not that I paid much attention to her body, but w
Last Updated : 2024-10-10Mr. CEO We're Done! Worked Like Magic!
Vivian’s POVIt took me every ounce of courage and discipline not erupt in laughter at Syrus’s expression. Indeed, Belinda deserved an Oscar for coming up with this idea that I had thought was crazy and not something I could do.“You will have to put Syrus on his edge of his seat with an attitude he will not see coming,” Belinda had said before diving into the rest of the plan she already cooked up in her head.And honestly, I had just wanted things to slide with Syrus after contacting my workplace for consideration, but when Georgia had appeared to threaten and humiliate me, I knew I just had to take Belinda’s advice.I had been somewhat surprised to have found Syrus sitting in the doctor’s office and waiting, but because I came fully prepared, I did not let my shock to take the better part of my emotions. “Are we ready to see what we have in there?” Doctor Pedro asked Syrus and I as I laid on the stretcher. After the agreement to act as adults and be peaceful, he had ushered us in
Last Updated : 2024-10-10Mr. CEO We're Done! Something Fishy
Syrus’s POV“What are you doing here?” I asked Georgia.I did not mean for my voice to sound so rude and harsh, and I caught the look of embarrassment that washed over Georgia’s face, especially as Vivian was just walking away. Hopefully, Vivian was too far away to have heard me talk to Georgia like that, but nonetheless, seeing her just caught me by surprise.“I came to give you emotional support,” Georgia said, her voice indicating that she was truly hurt by how I had welcomed her. “You don’t sound too happy to see me,” Georgia pouted. “I left an important shoot just to be here for you.” I sighed not knowing what to say or do at this point. I remember giving Georgia the permission to tell the world that we had begun dating, but I did not sign up for this. Right now, there is a whole lot of processing that I need to do, especially with my kids well on the way, and Vivian’s recent behavior. I only wanted to please Georgia, because ever since my divorce, she had been nothing but suppo
Last Updated : 2024-10-11Mr. CEO We're Done! The Schemers
Georgia’s POVBeing a rising star and taking lots of interviews did not prepare Georgia for the hurt that came with Syrus’s rejection.She swallowed hard and tried to catch her breath, and it was even a good thing to her that Syrus was not paying attention to her. She knew her pain was evident, but if Syrus really looked into her eyes, then he would know the extent to which he had hurt her.Georgia began to boil with anger and jealousy; anger at Syrus for not appreciating the fact that she was still with him after all this time, and jealousy at Vivian. The witch must have planned the pregnancy, Georgia was sure of it. She was an actress by extension, and she was familiar with a lot of tricks people engaged in just to get what they wanted. Vivian already realized that Syrus was never going to stay loyal and faithful to her the way she would have wanted him to, and so she had decided to trick him into a forced commitment.Georgia had been happy that she had successfully pushed Vivian in

Mr. CEO We're Done! When Love Falls Into Place!
Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Planners Of Love!
Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along
Mr. CEO We're Done! A Love Worth Having
Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and
Mr. CEO We're Done! Fight For Love And Forgiveness
Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili
Mr. CEO We're Done! Water Under The Bridge
Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus
Mr. CEO We're Done! Finally Set Free!
Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli
Mr. CEO We're Done! Ugly Realization
Georgia’s POVGeorgia was frantic. Things were getting out of hand. Syrus had been unreachable for hours since today, and she did not know what to do.“I cannot lose,” Georgia told herself as she paced about in her apartment. She had come too far to lose. She had done too much to lose now.“What do I do? I can’t let Syrus win over me,” Georgia said.As she was pacing about and thinking, Ken knocked on her door. Georgia answered it, but she was irritated. Ken was gradually becoming a nuisance to her; why would he keep showing up at her apartment?“You can’t just come in here whenever you like, Ken,” Georgia berated him.He hardly even gave her enough time to think things through and decide on what she wanted to do. “Why not?” Ken asked, making Georgia more disgusted. “We are a bound team now, remember?” Ken said.“You have your apartment, and I have mine. Stay at yours unless it is exceptionally necessary for crying out loud,” Georgia told Ken.She did not even bother masking her ann
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Cat Is Finally Out Of The Bag!
Syrus’s POVAll these years, Syrus had felt horribly sorry for his mother, being that he felt that she was unjustly abandoned, but from what Vale said, it meant that his mother swindled and manipulated her way into his life.Syrus shook his head; he did not want to believe that about the woman he had loved, adored, and respected all his life.“That cannot be true,” Syrus argued.“Do you think that after all these years I would lie to you?” Vale asked. “The years I spent being married to Nancy were the worst years of my life. I tried to love her, but I just couldn’t. She knew I was in love with someone else. She knew that I would never love her, but she refused to let me go. I know that you might not like the sound of this, but I went as far as taking a secret DNA test on you, because I wanted to find every reason to leave,” Vale said as tears streamed down his face in sadness and regret.Syrus’s heart was shattered beyond words. He had no idea that the story between his parents was de
Mr. CEO We're Done! Father And Son Mistake
Syrus’s POVSyrus walked over to where Mr. Vale sat solemnly, backing him. Marie stood behind Syrus, urging him to go to Mr. Vale.People had left the cemetery now, and they had all moved to Anderson’s house, or most of them, for the next batch of the funeral celebration. Syrus’s plan had been to pay his last respect here at the cemetery, then he would return home, but everything changed, including his plans. More so, Syrus could not believe that he let his father’s mistress, the woman he hated so much talk him into listening to Mr. Vale, something he had equally vowed that he would never do. Syrus swallowed hard, the words finding it difficult to come out from his throat. “Vale?” Marie called softly, since Syrus was taking too much time in talking, and with how sad Vale was, he was not likely going to turn around even in the next one hour.“I was counting on this opportunity, Marie, and I have lost it,” Vale said, his voice dripping with sadness and regret.Marie knew that if truly
