Mr. CEO We're Done! Skeletons And Closets
Georgia’s POVGeorgia had been smiling since her recent discovery. It was pretty obvious that Belinda was the engineer behind her disastrous interview, because Vivian was the only person she was currently antagonizing.“The slimy bitch,” Georgia cursed angrily. “She has always been the one fighting for Vivian,” Georgia said, because she remembers everything all too well.She knew that even Belinda did not recognize her too.“I am going to make sure they all pay for this,” Georgia said to herself with a determined grin. She was already on top of the game. Since Vivian was back in town, and Belinda tried to sabotage her interview, she would ensure that she dealt dangerously with both of them, but first of all, she needed to start with the silly interviewer. So Georgia went all the way to her apartment; the address the private investigator sent to her, and luckily, the interviewer was at home.“Brenda,” Georgia said when she opened her door.It was the first time she was actually addre

Vivian’s POVThe apartment Syrus rented was really nice, much to my surprise, although not entirely, because of the kind of man he was, and for someone who had camped in a room for weeks, I was more than grateful, although I didn’t say it out loud.“Does this place look okay?” Syrus asked me after we entered.His show of concern was strange to me, because I was married to Syrus Vale, and he was not exactly this nice, sweet, and concerned about me. If he had remained loving and caring like when we first met, I would never have divorced him.“Yes,” I said without giving too much expression or emotions away. There was no need to fawn over this gesture, because first of all, he was doing it for his babies; if I wasn’t pregnant for Syrus, he probably would never have picked up my call in the first place, and secondly, I did not want him to think I was at his mercy.We were still very much divorced.“Do you need anything else?” Syrus asked, his eyes going to my stomach again.“I told you

Vivian’s POV“Vivian. Vivian?” I snapped out of my reverie when Syrus’s voice of him calling my name kept ringing in my head.“Are you okay?” Syrus asked, looking at me with deep concern.“Yes, I am fine,” I said, shaking my head to get rid of the thoughts in my head.I was reminiscing on that night when I had happily and freely given myself to Syrus in an apartment just like this one when his words had interrupted me. I shuddered at the thought of things almost replaying itself years later; we were both alone, standing in an apartment.The only difference was that now, we are divorced.“Are you done? You can leave now,” I told Syrus, causing him to be surprised at my dismissal. But I just wanted to be alone, at least, until the effect of what our past that I just reminisced cleared from my head, and also, I needed time to think deeply about what happened to me in the last couple of days, and the way forward. Having Syrus here would prevent all that.“Are you sure everything is fine

Vivian’s POVAfter the tight hug that lingered for minutes, we finally untangled and I led Belinda into the living room.Having her around just felt downright relieving and so right.“Vivian, what happened?!” Belinda was the first to speak.I guess she was the first to come out of whatever emotions it was that kept us quiet, and just taking in each other. It felt like I hadn’t seen Belinda for years. This was nothing like the time I left to be with Syrus; now was just extremely different. I just feel that with what I experienced, I had come to realize that the people who have been in my life are very special.“It’s a very long story,” I said.“One of which I have all the time in the world,” Belinda said, staring at me.“Don’t you have a job to be doing right now or something?” I asked lightly.“I see what you are doing, but I should tell you, Vivian, I took the rest of the day off just to be with you,” Belinda said. Then she stopped abruptly and she looked at me. “First things first,

Vivian’s POVBelinda threw her head back and laughed when I asked her that question.“Belinda, what did you do?” I asked her again, eager to know.“I didn’t do what I wasn’t supposed to do,” Belinda said vaguely, but I was not having it.“What are you talking about?” I asked her, my curiosity nearly overriding me.“Okay, let me give you the full gist, since you are this eager,” Belinda said.“Please do!” I said.We both settled in the bed, holding and hugging each other tightly, yet tenderly. It was as though we had been apart for eternity, and now that we were together again, we were afraid that being slightly apart might make one of us disappear.“That day when I left, I got a call from my clique of friends,”“You have a clique of friends now?” I asked Belinda, slightly jealous. All these years, she was the only one I ever had as a friend, even up till now, so realizing that Belinda got a whole bunch of friends and shared friendship with other people that I was not a part of just g

Georgia’s POVGeorgia arrived at home in a lighter mood, because a few minutes after she left Brenda’s apartment, she got a call from Brenda.“Have you changed your mind?” Georgia teased. She already knew the answer, but Georgia just enjoyed toying with her victims.“No, I haven’t,” Brenda responded, and from the sound of her voice on the phone, Georgia could tell that she was still shaken.Very good, just the way Georgia liked it!“I wanted to inform you that the interview video has been deleted completely, and it would never be out in the public,” Brenda said.“How am I certain that this isn’t a lie just so that I would not expose you?” Georgia asked.She was not a fool. In fact, she was way smarter than a bunch of people, and she knew how these things worked, because she had been in the game long enough, which was why she did not even talk about her other blackmail request yet.“Because you have just been crowned our star of the season,” Brenda announced.Georgia could not believe

Georgia’s POVGeorgia was upset and disappointed at Bonnie for making her waste her time going all the way to that property only to discover that there was no one there.In as much as she would like to, she could not show off her anger and disappointment towards Bonnie. If she didn’t need both mother and daughter to reach her goal, she wouldn’t bother with a dumb head like Bonnie.“Sometimes, being born with a silver spoon just makes them really stupid and silly,” Georgia said to herself, referring to Bonnie. Georgia was not particularly a fan of these rich kids, because half of them were not remotely as smart as she was, and that was because they had everything practically handed over to them in a platter of gold.Georgia arrived at Syrus home, and for the first time, she really hoped that Syrus would not be at home. She did not want to see him, at least not now, and she was still very upset that after that interview, he never bothered to reach her. Instead, he had gone to be the kni

Syrus’s POV“Mum, do you have an idea what Bonnie did? Did she tell you? Are you also in on this?” Syrus asked his mother, fuming.He had gotten a worrisome call from the family’s finance officer who expressed his deep concerns about how huge amounts of money was being withdrawn from the family account. First, it was Bonnie, then Syrus, and now Syrus was requesting for another amount of money.Syrus would be really upset if his mother was in on this.“You can at least start by talking first, Syrus,” Nancy demanded authoritatively.Georgia just sat there watching the family drama, and hoping to God that Bonnie would not be forced into mentioning her name, otherwise she would be doomed. This was the only family that she pitched her tent for now.“Bonnie had five thousand dollars wired out of the account, and I demand to know what she used the money for!” Syrus bellowed.“So you refused to answer mum’s question, but you want to force me into answering yours, right?” Bonnie stated stubbor

Mr. CEO We're Done! Protector And Provider
Syrus’s POVAnyway, regardless of what Georgia wanted to talk about, Syrus was certain that it wouldn’t be something deep or serious. Aside from what they had shared in the past, Georgia was his friend, ahd she had always looked out for him in ways that no one else had. Also, he would not allow anything and anyone to stop his joy. So Syrus decided that he would still go home first, take that toast, before meeting up with Georgia later.Syrus grabbed his things, ready to leave.“You may close for the day,” he announced to his secretary.“You seem to be in a great mood, Mr. Syrus,” his secretary said with a surprised smile.“I am in a great mood, and make sure you prepare for something bigger,”Syrus said as he walked out.Right now, he wasn’t thinking of anything else other than the contract he just signed.“I did it!” Syrus kept telling himself.He wished that he could see his dad and tell the man to his face that he was succeeding with the company he almost ran to the ground. If Syrus
Mr. CEO We're Done! Signed And Sealed
Syrus’s POVSyrus waited patiently for the people he was expecting to arrive. He was no nervous that he stayed in the boardroom waiting instead of his office. “Direct them all to the boardroom; I’ll be there until they get here,” Syrus had earlier informed his secretary.Some minutes later, Davis arrived. Syrus had told his secretary to reach out to him through emails, because he was too prideful to do it himself, knowing that he was the one who fired Davis himself.“Good day, Mr. Vale,” Davis greeted as soon as he entered Syrus’s office.“Davis, I am glad you arrived before their representatives,” Syrus simply said.Then he gestured for Davis to take his place at the table. Any moment from now, the representatives from the City’s Business Council would arrive. Somehow, there was just some sort of awkwardness between Syrus and Davis, which shouldn’t be so to Syrus, because he was Davis’s boss, and without him, he would not have attained half of what he had attained, which was why Dav
Mr. CEO We're Done! Trick Of Fate
Vivian’s POVThis had to be the greatest shock of my entire existence!“Are you okay?” I heard the voice of Marie as she called out, jolting me out of my reverie.I was standing right in front of Mr. Vale, Syrus’s father!So as not to act like a lunatic, I shook my head and quickly grabbed my bag that had fallen from my hand.“Yes…yes, I am okay,” I stuttered. “I, um…just lost my balance for a second,” I lied. It was not a good thing to say, especially with the kind of job I had come to do, but I couldn’t think of a better explanation for my actions without screaming the truth.Marie chuckled lightly and good-naturedly. “Oh, that’s great; I was worried for a bit,” she said.“Let’s allow her into the house, honey,” Mr. Vale said to his wife softly. The gentleness and love in his voice was evident and palpable.“Please, come in,” Marie said with a warm smile as they led me in.I thought the environment was serene, but it did not prepare me for what I was expecting to see in their living
Mr. CEO We're Done! The New Employers
Vivian’s POVAs the train rode by, I occupied my eyes with the beauty of the city that I was seeing. Not like I hadn’t seen most of them before, but now, I paid attention with the mind to actually enjoy what I was seeing. I had been quiet the entire time, and thankfully, no one sat close to me to even engage in a chatter. I wasn’t even feeling up to it in the first place. My heart and mind were numb and shut down, and I really wanted it to be so before I reached my destination.Syrus didn’t choose me, again.I decided not to think about his rejection so that I wouldn’t cry or feel horrible about myself.“He didn’t choose you, Vivian. You have you pick yourself up and move on,” I had told myself minutes before the train arrived.The next city where I would be meeting with my new employers was just about an hour away, so I had little time to dwell on my predicament.I was all alone now.I knew that I would feel the pain of his stark rejection, but not now. Right now, I just wanted to be
Mr. CEO We're Done! Choose
Vivian’s POVTaking the job even without knowing what it entailed aside from the fact that it was in another city and it was a housekeeping job was crazy, but I had no choice.In fact, I think that was what I really needed.I still had some sort of fear and anxiety, especially regarding the fact that the last time I went away, I had gotten myself into a deeper mess that I almost didn’t survive, but from what I was told, this wasn’t another small town, and this couple were not struggling financially, so it wasn’t much of a big deal. I had taken it, and I would still take it, because right now, I just needed to get away from my family, Syrus, and Belinda, because it was as though I was surrounded by people whom I thought I knew but didn’t actually know. This time around however, I had decided to do things differently. So when I arrived at home, I asked to speak with Manny and Dad; Ted wasn’t home again. Ted was another major reason why I just couldn’t continue living here, especially
Mr. CEO We're Done! Play To Win
Georgia’s POV“I can always get anything I want; I just have to put my mind to it,” Georgia told herself as she made her way to the address that she received in just a couple of hours, and also waited for an important call; it was this call that would aid her to do what she wanted to do without any hitch.In this city, Georgia knew whom to meet for whatever she wanted. Even if she didn’t need to meet anyone, she sure knew how to go about what she wanted.This wasn’t an exception.Every time she had a deep conversation with Nancy, she always ended up knowing what to do. “I will not allow Syrus to play me for a fool,” Georgia told herself with determination as she drew close. She had already prepared herself for what she was going to do, and there was no way she would not achieve her end result today. Georgia’s phone rang, making her sigh in relief.“About time,” Georgia said to herself before taking the call. “I thought you were going to wait,” Georgia said.“You have used our servic
Mr. CEO We're Done! Unexpected Turn
Vivian’s POV“Hi, my name is Vivian, and I am here for the interview,” I said to the person I met at the counter with the description I was given.After what I overheard from Manny and Ted, and with the uncertainty of the meaning of their words, I just knew that I couldn’t sit idly by and wait for any of them to sell me off. Hearing that dad had the intention of using me to offset his debt and that Manny and Ted were even in on it shattered my heart. I couldn’t confront Manny about what I overheard, or even force him into explaining what he meant by those words, but the words didn’t sit well with my spirit. I couldn’t ask Dad about it either, because it dawned on me that I had been living a lie for the longest time. I had gone into the storm room and cried regrettably for hours, and after that, I had begun checking sites for jobs online.I spent the entire night looking for urgent recruitments.I knew that I would have to get a job to support myself ahd the triplets when they eventual
Mr. CEO We're Done! Something Worthwhile
Georgia’s POVGeorgia’s heart did a flip-flop at Syrus’s declaration; she hadn’t expected him to say what he just said.“Is that the bone of contention now?” Nancy rose to Georgia’s defense.Neither Syrus nor Nancy knew but Georgia had instantly began to shake inside at Syrus’s declaration. She knew that she would have to be prepared, because now that she had placed herself in this position, she would have to go through it till the very end. She could not back out now. She could not risk anyone finding out that she was lying, because not only would it affect her career, the Vale family would never have anything to do with her. That would be two losses, and she could not afford that.“Mum, please stay out of this,” Syrus said angrily.His words seemed to have gotten Nancy more upset as she leaped to her feet in a fit of rage.“I have stayed out of your life way too long and that is why we are in this mess in the first place!” Nancy blew hot.“What are you talking about?” Syrus asked.G
Mr. CEO We're Done! Firm Declaration
Syrus’s POVSyrus paced about the living room boiling with rage. Davis stood close to one of the couches, confused. He did not know whether to sit, although he would very much like to, but then again, he had no idea if it would aggravate Syrus. Syrus had made him come to the house as well after the saga at the office. This was part of the scenarios that Davis always liked to avoid, because in situations like these, especially when he was dealing with a man like Syrus Vale, it would never end up well.Then Nancy sat in the living room, her expression unreadable as she watched Syrus walk about and boil with rage.“That son of a bloody bastard!” Syrus bellowed. “How dare he? As a result of what he had done, I have lost the one contract that meant the world to me!” Syrus continued to blow hot.Davis was quiet, because he did not know what to say, and at the same time, he did not want to say the wrong things. With how angered Syrus Vale appeared to be, he could fire Davis in a heartbeat,
