Ms. CEO And Her Assistant Chapter 24
Caroline’s POVI noticed the weather outside when I looked up from my laptop after working continuously. The meeting in the afternoon went smoothly making it a success. The sky was grey and it looked like it was about to rain a little.Something made me sign and lean back on my chair making a frown appear on my face. I wonder how much time it has been that I have taken a break from work and spent some time on myself or for myself.Ever since my parents died in that car accident, my heart has never been at peace or utterly happy. It always feels like something is missing, a void that never can be filled and it makes me distressed.Also, nowadays it feels like my mind has many things to think about. like how my aunt robbed money from my company whereas she could have just asked for it instead of doing that. How I am having mixed feelings about Samael Wright.My heart and mind contradict many things and in those situations, it becomes hard for me to choose. Sometimes it’s beneficial to l

Samael’s POVI walked towards the cafeteria and took two cups of coffee, like usual for me and Caroline. Keeping her coffee on the table in her office, I went into my office. I started replying to certain emails while drinking my morning coffee.After a while, I realized that Caroline has not called me yet in her office like she usually does to know her schedule. I checked her in the office, just to find out that hasn’t arrived yet. it was past ten in the morning and she is never this late to the office.I called her a few unanswered times and I got worried about her. Walking into my office, I decided to call someone and ask if they know anything about the situation.“Hello, Samael.” Ms. Lopez, our receptionist greeted me.“Hi, Lucy. I needed to ask you something.” I said nervously.“Yes, please go ahead,” she said as I sat on the chair while talking to her on the phone.“Do you know why Ms. Martinez has not come to the office yet?” I asked and a frown appeared on my face when she pau

Caroline’s POV“Should we go somewhere?” he asked me with a smile which made me confused. What did he want? Why did he come here?“What are you saying? Why you are here? What do want?” I asked, most likely demanding an answer out of frustration.I was already feeling light-headed because how I cried the whole night and dint sleep for even a minute. I was missing my parents and feeling lonely, all by myself. Tough I got a call from Mason asking how I was doing and that he would visit me in the evening or so.“I am here to make sure you are okay. Are you okay, Caroline?” He said making my heart flutter and my breath hitch.It was just a simple sentence but for some reason, it held more power than anything. It’s been a long time since someone genuinely asked me that question. Tears formed in my eyes and Samael took a sharp breath when he noticed my teary eyes.“Hm, I am fine,” I mumbled and took a deep breath to control my tears.“Who told you? or did you hear it while people were gossip

Caroline’s POVHalting made me wake up from my nap. Slowly opening my eyes, I turned to look at Samael who was already looking at me. What wired was that even though I caught him looking at me while I was sleeping, he did not turn away or tried to hide it.“W-what?” I asked as I sat straight and stretched a little.“Did you sleep well?” he asked me to which I nodded my head.“Yeah, I feel much better. Where are we though-” I stopped talking when I looked outside the window. I was dumb folded and surprised to see where we were and that was outside the cemetery.“What? why?” I babbled looking at him surprised that he drove me to the cemetery and I was just flabbergasted, not knowing what to say I just stared at him until he answered me.“You said, you dint visit them for a long time so I thought maybe you would want to go and talk to them. Only if you want to, no pressure.” He said with a small smile trying to ease me, which helped.“I – I don’t know. It’s been a long time since I visit

Samael’s POV“… and then you close the lid of the pot and let it cook for a few minutes,” I explained as I put the lid on the pot to let the chicken stew cook.“Wow” Caroline muttered while looking impressed.“Yeah, have I proved myself that I can cook?” I asked, still thinking about how we had a conversation in the car, on our way back to her home.“Should we take out something for dinner?” Caroline eyed outside the window looking at the restaurants. “We ate at McDonald’s before so I think we should cook something instead,” I suggested. “Oh, but I don’t want to,” Caroline said her thoughts out loud with a frown on her face. She looked not interested but then I thought maybe the reason was something else. “Why, you can’t cook?” I asked teasingly and she looked at me with narrowed eyes probably sensing the teasing through my voice and the smile. “Yes, I can. I have been cooking for myself past few years, I just don’t feel like cooking.” She said with a huff making me bit back my sm

Caroline’s POV“Hey, how are you doing?” Mason asked me as we all took seats.“I am fine, really fine. I visited mom and dad.” I said with a small smile thinking how content I felt after visiting mom and dad.“You did? Wow, that’s great. I was worried about you, I am thankful that you were not alone. Thank you, man.” Mason looked at Samael with a thankful gaze.“Don’t mention it.” Samael smiled at Mason as I looked at him.He somehow looks different without his glasses, in a good way. He took off the glasses while cooking and still was without them, giving me a clear view of his eyes without the barrier of the glasses. His eyes snapped at me making me advert my eyes, probably he felt my gaze on him.“Why do I smell something amazing? Caroline, did you cook?” Mason asked sniffing the air, taking both of our attention towards him. Which I was thankful for, it is already embarrassing when Samael catches me staring at him although it was not the first time, I think it’s not going to be th

Samael’s POVI sighed as I parked the car, I am so exhausted. It was a very tiring day of work, there were many meetings and we barely even got time to have lunch. Taking my glasses off, I rubbed my eyes with the palm of my hands to get rid of sleepiness.Taking the elevator, I got outside my house and something caught my eyes which made me frown. There were three pairs of shoes outside the door of my house and I got confused. I don’t know many people here except my office colleagues and they won’t come here to my home without informing me.Did Justin bring someone over? No, why would he bring someone to my house? With many questions in my mind, I took out the house key and unlocked the door. And what I saw inside was unexpectedly shocking and immediately made me freeze on my spot.Two people who I hated the most were sitting with their back facing me on the couch, while Ella was standing fearfully behind an angry Justin, who stood protectively in front of her.“Come on now, Ella. Is
Ms. CEO And Her Assistant Chapter 31
Caroline’s POVI have trust issues, a lot. I trust only a few people around me, yet most of the time don’t let my guard down. And because of that, no one has been able to hurt me, but somehow a certain man, who happens to be my assistant has been able to change that.After what he did for me a few weeks ago, we started spending a lot of time together. I didn’t feel lonely anymore and felt like I had a friend, who cared for me. Maybe not a friend, but that’s what I wanted to believe for my sake.Samael has been acting differently toward me, mostly it feels like he is ignoring me. Trying to not talk with me if it’s not about work and not to mention how he is refusing to meet my gaze and be professional. I have no idea what went wrong or if I did something.Suddenly, after a few days, he started behaving distant and when I tried to talk about the changed behavior, he just changed the topic or ignored it like he wanted me to drop the topic. So, I dropped everything, my hurt feelings, our

Caroline’s POVI sighed and looked up when Samael held my hand, while aunt Maria and the man sat in front of us. The place was not too crowded, after an awkward silence I decided to speak up.“What is going on with you aunt Maria?” I asked directly.“Fine, I'll tell you everything. But in exchange of the truth, I want something from you.” she said trying to look confident but could tell she was nervous. “What is it?” I asked.“I want you to put Victor in jail.” she said making me frown.“What? For what?” I was confused and weirded out by her demand. “Not everything you see is truth and Victor is the prime example of that.” she said with a sigh, I saw the man beside her holding her hand and aunt Marie giving a small smile at him before turning towards me and continuing. “Victor is abusive. He has been for a long time now. At first, I tried to keep it a secret because of Mason and then when he grew up Victor threatened me to harm Mason if I said anything to anyone. He is greedy, he w

Caroline's POV“How do you like the food?” I asked when I saw her eyes sparkle when she ate. We were currently eating our dinner in a restaurant after we finished watching the movie. “It’s good.” she said happily eating another mouthful of bite, making me smile at her adoringly. She looks cute and “Better than mine?” I asked teasingly knowing she likes my cooking. “Hm, yes.” I said and we both chuckled before continuing to eat and have some random topics to talk about.After the dinner, we walked outside, it was dark outside but as we walked, I heard the noise of seashore.“Let’s take a walk around the shore.” I suggested to which he gave me a nod before we walked towards the beach. We stood for a moment looking at the sea silently, cold air swept around. The moonlight reflected in the water and the scene was beautiful, which made me calm and feel content in way. I felt something touching my hand and I looked down to see, Samael’s hand holding my tightly. I looked at him, who was

Samael’s POV“Hello James.” I greeted as soon I answered the call, while walking in the room.“Sam, I need to speak with Ms. Martinez. I have been trying to connect with her but her phone is out of range.” James said making me frown as he sounded nervous and serious.“Oh, what happened you sound serious?”“Yes, it’s urgent. I need to speak with Ms. Martinez. Is it possible for you to connect with her.”“Um, yeah. Hold on a second, will you.”“Okay” he exhaled and I walked down stairs to find Caroline. I saw her watching television with Ella beside her. I signaled her to walk outside for a minute, she frowned but followed me out.“It’s James, he wants to talk with you, it seems urgent.” I said and handed the phone to her and walked inside when I saw Ella calling me by waving her hand.“What?” I asked her taking the single chair.“What are you going to do now?” Ella asked me making me frown.“About what?” I asked raising an eye brow to which she rolled her eyes.“Bro! Aren't you going t

Caroline’s POVI shifted closer to the campfire as the heat from the campfire cut the coldness of the air. It was dark, I was able to hear the water flowing and the beautiful moon made everything much amazing.It was late and everyone was in the tent, but I stayed outside because I was not sleepy yet and it felt amazing outside. I felt calm and content, a small smile stretched on my lips as I sighed and closed my eyes for a few seconds. “Aren't you cold?” my eyes snapped open as I heard Samael’s voice. He walked towards me and placed a blanket around my shoulders.He wasn’t wearing his glasses again, which made me admire his beautiful eyes and I noticed he was wearing a thick jacket on his casual attire now. He sat next to me looking at the campfire and I looked at him observing his handsome face. His black hair was sickled back, his skin looked golden because of the campfire, his sharp nose and jawline looked prominent. His hazel eyes looked like they were dusted with golden power m

Samael’s POVOne thing that takes my mind off everything is cooking, which slowly became my hobby as it helps me relax in a way. Turning off the stove, I turned and kept the breakfast on the dining table with some bread, butter, fruits, and omelets.“Good morning!” Ella walked down the stairs with a huge smile on her face which instantly made me smile. I saw Caroline who was just behind Ella, she looked like she must have just showered because of her wet hair. Even though she was just wearing casual clothes, she looked beautiful.“Good morning though it’s almost afternoon now, you are just on time brunch is ready,” I said while filling plates for both.“Wow! Thanks, Sam, let’s eat.” Ella and Caroline sat beside each other with their plates and started eating. I deliberately took a seat in front of Caroline who still hasn’t made eye contact with me yet.“Look at you. Doesn’t even bother for me to join.” Justin snorted at Ella as he came and sat beside me, who has not showered.“I know

Caroline’s POVAfter I told Justin to go and help Samael, I took a quick shower. Ella was taking a nap on our bed so I walked toward the balcony. It was dark now, the beautiful evening sky was gone, replaced with a dark blanket decorated with shining stars.I was unable to see the river flowing by the house but was able to hear the retelling of the water through it. a breeze of cold wind made my eyes flutter close and sigh in contentment. I felt peaceful, I like this feeling.A small smile stretched on my lips as I remembered how Samael was stealing glances at me the whole ride back from the market. I was able to feel his gaze on me but choose to not react to that. I have felt his gaze on me many times in the office too but brushed it off. But I never admitted that I liked how his eyes follow my every action. I like his attentiveness towards me, it makes me feel special.“Wow, the sky looks so beautiful!” I turned to look at Ella who has her eyes fixed on the sky.“You are up,” I said
Ms. CEO And Her Assistant Chapter 37
Samael’s POVI am stupid.She looked so pretty in her casual clothes, hair down, light eyes, and soft smile, as she gazed at the sky above that was turned in the shades of orange, red, purple, etc. Tough for some reason my eyes dint left her face, looking at her I somehow felt … content.While driving back to the rented house, the car was silent and I liked that it was a comfortable silence. While Caroline dozed off in her seat and I drove while taking a few glances at her.When we reached the house, it was dark I stopped the car and sighed. The lights in the house and street lights around were also turned on. I was able to hear the river water flowing and music playing in the house, which I confident was played by Justin. He loves music, a lot, and because of him, Ella has started to like music a lot.I turned to look at Caroline and a soft smile stretched on my lips. She looked so beautiful in the moonlight. I slowly and softly brushed strands of hair from her face trying to not wak

Caroline’s POV“You seem excited and nervous at the same time,” Peter said as we drove to the airport.“I am. It’s my first vacation after working hard for so many years, I need a break so I feel excited. But at the same time, it’s my first vacation without my parents, it feels a little wired and I feel a little nervous.” I said with a shrug.“I understand and I am glad you invited Mr. Wright and his sister Ella to join you,” Peter said making me nod in agreement.“Yeah, I think I will be fine as I won’t be alone,” I muttered to which Peter smiled at me.“Here we are.” He announced making me sigh and get ready to start my vacation. After parking our car, we walked inside and met with Samael and Ella who were already waiting for us.“Hello, Caroline and Mr. Peter!” Ella greeted us with a huge grin on her face and excitement in her eyes, making me smile at her.“Hi, Ella. Good to see you.” After all the greetings, Ella introduced a man who was standing with them.“Caroline, this is my f

Samael’s POVI was surprised when Caroline said that, making me freeze but something made my heart flutter. I could sense Justin and Ella looking at me wide-eyed when they heard Caroline, as the phone was on speaker because Ella wanted to talk to Caroline. Ella took the phone from my hand while I was sitting there thinking about Caroline’s offer.“Yes! It’s me, Ella. I would love to go on a vacation with you … and also Samael.” Ella said with a huge grin on her face.“Oh, Ella. Hi, that’s good to know. I will inform you after planning everything.” Caroline said and I could sense relief in her voice.“Yes, that would be great. Wait, would you mind, if my friend tagged along with us?” Ella asked making me frown. Who does Ella want to go with us?“Um, … yeah, okay. No problem.” Caroline said a little unsure but Ella dint picks it.“Yay! Thank you, Caroline! Here talk with my brother.” Ella said holding the phone in my hand. Turning off the speaker, I stood up and turned around to talk wi
