It was Sunday, and I was getting agitated already, we haven't had a clue on who was responsible for the placement of the photos. The CCTV was conveniently unavailable in that part of the area. There was no way of knowing who actually put the envelope there.
"So, has Bruce reported anything? any leads?" Larry was coming over to my place, he would visit and chill on some random Sunday afternoon for a lazy time. But since Jessica, it's been a while since he'd come over to my place.
He took the beer from my hand and sits his ass on the sofa, Jess was having her afternoon nap, while I have just finished a meeting with our security head Bruce Steward.
"Bruce said that it's most likely a woman's doing. It looked personal. He had cleared Brodie and some of her employees that she had to fire when the company had money issues. Even Elsie was cleared, now he's going on for another route, lookin

Jessica"Boss, seriously, you should tell him. He's going to freak out when he finds out from his security guy."Kayleigh was waving the note in front of my face while she kept on reminding me of the danger of the situation."Kay, I'm perfectly safe, I'm staying at his place anyway and working beside his office. What could go wrong? Bruce's men are scattered around us and he even has a couple of them stationed outside the office.I was actually kind of surprised when Bruce laid out his security plan with Tyler and me. I didn't think so much manpower was going to be involved just to keep me unharmed. But obviously, Tyler would lock me in a glass cage if he could, he actually said it and I believed him one hundred percent.With that thought I was back to my loyal assistant who looked at me, giving me her judgemental face."...but he's in a freaking meeting a

Tyler"Bruce, maybe your sources are wrong, you should double-check. There's no way...""Tyler, with all due respect, I've gone over this footage a dozen times already, and if we calculate the timing and the possibilities it all makes sense.""Don't you think it isn't too far-fetched? I thought she was abused, and now you're saying she loves him and wanted revenge?""She was his longest assistant before everything else happened and she was under the assumption that he was practicing BDSM stuff with her. She was covering the tracks really well, and if my guy didn't find out that she was a patient at a psychiatric hospital when she was still in high school, we wouldn't dig deeper.""But she said Troy had another assistant that she was hired by her?""Kayleigh lied, or in this case, she was telling her version of the truth. She has a case of DID, Dissociative

Jessica"Kay, I thought we're going to your mom's?""Yeah, we're meeting her at her friend's it's a cute little cottage up in the mountains.""Oh, no...I didn't know we're going to go that far. Tyler will be worried, let me give him a call, I can't believe I left my phone."My feelings were a bit strange, I know I'm safe with Kayleigh. But I also know I put my phone in my purse, she said I probably dropped it and her phone battery was dead so for the next couple of hours I won't be able to contact Tyler."...he's going to be so pissed at me.""Yeah, well we'll call him once we get there. He loves you, you'll get away with anything."I know she was joking but for a second she sounded a bit sarcastic. I shook my head when she giggled mischievously saying that we're going on a road trip while swiftly pumping up the volume to her car Soundsyst

TylerI let Dale and Bruce deal with Kayleigh. She was alive, crazy, but alive. Unfortunately. I would lock her up for good myself if I could, but I know Jessica would feel guilty when she found out the real reason why Kayleigh did it.It was a sickness, a deranged twisted sickness.Going through her phone, I called her doctor friend Rebecca while Jessica was still staring at the blank TV screen sitting on the sofa with a blanket draped over her body."Hello, Rebecca? this is Tyler's Jessica's boyfriend...yeah, we need you here right now, bring your doctor kit. I'll explain everything later...no, just superficial wounds. I know she doesn't like going to the hospital...and I might need your opinion should she have other bruises...good, thank you. I'll text you my address."The kettle was boiling and I was back to my simple task of making her some tea. I decided to

Jessica"Thank you, Dr. Sheridan.""You're making progress, Jessica, small baby steps."Tyler was to my side soon as I was out of her office, he nodded at Dr. Sheridan. He was letting me have my space, didn't discuss anything with her. The man was understanding and respecting my therapy time with my psychiatrist."So, I was thinking of getting a week off from work, and you're not seeing Dr. Sheridan for another week. With that in mind, what would you say we if we go for a short trip?" he holds my hand in his and rubbed my knuckles with his thumb. Small little gestures, but he was showing me that he's there, that he cares for me."...nothing too far, I'm thinking the quiet seaside, walk on the beach type of relaxation? nearby bed and breakfast with a full spa treatment? and if you're bored we can go back and just lounged at my place and have our walk in the park date?"

Tyler"Tyler, it's supposed to be a relaxing week. What are you doing?"Jessica was in my shirt, undoubtedly naked underneath. We were giving our all last night, and yet she was already looking beautiful in the morning, a bit pale but permanently beautiful in my eyes. I'm sure I was biased but I still need to get a ring on her finger."I'm delegating my work to Larry, and his assistant is working from Kayleigh's desk at the moment. Let's just say he's not very happy with that.""Really? this is your brother Larry we're talking about? I thought he hated Gemma, the last time I saw him he was criticizing her work. Also, I have a feeling they've known each other in another lifetime before. I mean the hate they have for each other is too astronomical for them to have in this time alone." She let out her small laugh while I watched her as he poured coffee on her cup, adding some milk then gently

Jessica A lot was going on with my life, a week with Tyler at the beach house was making me realize that I hate coming back to work. Not without Kayleigh by my side and I was still adjusting to the look that people gave me when I saw Tyler's big sparkly engagement ring. His mom was over the moon, she couldn't stop talking about how we should hurry up with the wedding, how Tyler is not getting any younger and I might need time to get pregnant. I know his mom probably hoped I'd get pregnant on day one after the wedding. "Congratulation." Elsie was to my side holding out her hand as if she was giving me the win and ownership of my fiancé, Tyler. "Ehm...thank you." I decided to just take it and let it be over with once and for all. Well, at least for that morning. On that same day, we are scheduled for a family dinner with Tyler's parents in the evening.

KayleighAfter all these years, I was finally admitted again. I looked at my surroundings. The whitewashed walls, the door with a window, and a lock system from the other side. The standard living furniture was an indication of more depressing thoughts ahead.I remembered I was there before, right after my dad died. Mom said she killed him, that it was self-defense. But what if I did it? I still couldn't recollect the exact details up to this date. My psychiatrist said I might never will, and I've made my peace with that fact.Maybe all the abuse and rape I underwent made me finally crack and kill him. That was what I kept saying to myself, surely mom didn't do anything knowing her daughter was being molested. But she said she protected me, that she finally killed him for me. And her words had been the glue, it was making me stay with her after dad was gone.In a way, I was thanking my mom

Tyler and I have been house hunting for a while, but since we came back from our year-long honeymoon Tyler has been busy with work.Our firstborn, Mia, was delivered three months after we came back from our around the world trip and Nancy has been over the moon with babysitting our little girl when I decided to go back to the office five months after giving birth.Then she couldn't hide her happiness when she learned that I was pregnant with a baby boy six months later.

My CEO, My Temptation 42. The Wedding
TylerI was a nervous wreck, I still couldn't grasp the feeling that she will be my wife in less than an hour. I shouldn't have taken Larry's invitation for a late hour drink with him saying that it's my last night as a bachelor and that we should at least drink to that.Knowing Larry, he was having another fight with Gemma, I couldn't say no to him. But come morning I was still a bit light-headed and mom had been asking me if I was having second thoughts."What? no! don't be ridiculous mom, of course, I'm not, I love her.""Okay, but you need to sober up, she doesn't need you hangover on her wedding day," she said as she patted my tux and make sure I look presentable."Oh, Tyler...I'm so proud of you. I love you, but I'm going to hunt you down if you ever hurt her. Remember that, okay?"I smiled at her and gave her my warmest hug. "I won't mom, I promised

JessicaIt was a lazy Friday afternoon, working hours were almost over when Tyler stepped into my office and finally reveal his big plan for our honeymoon.After saying yes to all the wedding planning details with his mom, I was looking forward to what Tyler has planned for our honeymoon. Luckily his mom's plans for the wedding was to my liking and the wedding planner read my personality well and she ticked all my preference to all the finest details."We're going where?""Around the world, I was thinking twelve maximum thirteen months. We can start from down under, the best way I always say," the CEO looked at me with a smug smile on his face which only accentuates his handsomeness making my heart beats just a little bit faster as he said down under.Damn the man..."You can't be serious? we can't just take one year off work?"

Tyler"So how was the visit?" mom asked the moment Jessica was busy talking to dad about one of her clients who turn out to be one of his friends from college."Pretty bad, but as expected. That was why we postponed this dinner.""It's okay, I understand. Hopefully, it'll be all happy experience from now on. You better treat her right, Tyler. She had enough bad ones already." Mom hugged me and told me to go keep her company while she finishes up with the dinner preparation."I will mom, you know I will." I kissed her cheek before leaving mom so she can go back to instructing the chef and his little crew back in the kitchen area.My feet brought me to dad's side where I join in on their conversation. "Son... Jessica here is a keeper. I told you, didn't I? have you thought about the little Tuscany villa I mentioned last week?""Dad, not now..." I whispered h

JessicaVisiting Kayleigh was making me nervous, I had it planned in my head. I thought it'll be easy, but I didn't expect the pounding in my chest as we reached the lobby of the psychiatric hospital.His driver opened the door for me, and Tyler hold out his hand and helped me out of the car."Your hands are cold, you're feeling nervous?" his voice soft as he took my hand to the crook of his arm."A bit," I laced my fingers with his, trying to take in the warmth, the comfort of his love then I decided to take off my ring and give it to him right there and then."Just in case I forget."Tyler nodded and kissed my temple softly, whispering that it'll all be okay and that he'll be there for me.It didn't take long before the man I recognized as Kayleigh's doctor walk towards us then greeted us, saying that Kayleigh has been expecting me.
My CEO, My Temptation 38. Girlfriends
JessicaA month after Kayleigh was admitted to the hospital I told Tyler that I wanted to see her again."Remember the last time you were there?" Tyler was being straight protective of me and didn't like where our conversation was going."I do, but she was my best friend for years and she did somehow help me cope with the aftereffect from my abusive brother. I just need to see her, even if it might be my last time. I need to close that chapter of my life,"He knows my implication by saying my past as the dark chapter, the memories that I don't want to revisit. He knows I needed the closure."Let me call her doctor, your meeting will be supervised. I'm not risking you being hurt again.""Thank you,""Jess, you know I'll do anything for you. Now eat, we'll leave in half an hour."I smiled at him and continue eating my omelet

My CEO, My Temptation 36. Social Weekend
TylerA couple of days ago, I was more than a bit shocked when I find Jessica was having lunch and laughing freely with Elsie."I'm not sure I like you making friends with my ex," kissing the nape of her neck, I pulled her back flat to my front."What, why? I'm having coffee with her later this afternoon." She turned to face me and wrapped her arms around my shoulder pulling me lower for a deep sexy kiss. Jessica was looking beautiful in my t-shirt and her lacy panties and nothing else.It was our lazy Saturday morning thing, I love spending hours cozying up with her in the penthouse, and sharing my weekend time with someone else was a thing that I'm not willing to part. I'd have her locked in my basement if have one, that's how possessive I was of my fiancée."Seriously? but this is our weekend, I even move mom's thing to Monday. You know she hated that, and
My CEO, My Temptation 35. The Assistant
Jessica"You know you don't have to flaunt your thing, right? I get that he's madly in love with you." The voluptuous assistant said as she kept her eyes on my engagement ring."Elsie, thank you for helping me out."It was one of that mid-week office madness. My new PA decided that it's a good time for him to have a meltdown and be the drama queen and leave me to my office affairs. He was my third PA after Kayleigh, and I'm not sure I'll be getting her replacement anytime soon.That morning Elsie had been helping me out because Tyler was out on a meeting across town and won't be coming in until later that afternoon. He was attending another big emergency after Larry decided to have a day off probably having his sexual adventures with one of his women."Thank you again, for helping me out.""It's the least I can do after what happened to you."
