My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon The New Staff
SUNDAY.Emily’s POV.Brenda regains control of Mum and Dad’s love at the breakfast table but at least this time, there is peace.Everyone seems to be in a good mood except for Brenda and I.Well, Mum and Dad are happy with the family meeting with the Moore’s and the agreement half-reached that they can’t smiling from ear to ear.Brenda looks a little moody; still feigning weakness and unwell but otherwise, she is eating well. I bet to think that she doesn’t want to ruin the atmosphere today with her usual targets at me after being scolded for the first time in her life.On the other hand, I have no reason to be in a good mood regardless of the peace at the table. Even if anyone makes a rude remark at me, I won’t even battered an eye or be angry about it. I will simply focus on finishing my dinner and leaving.I am yet to get a call from Christopher regarding the marriage agreement or the one-nightstand case. I am very worried because I can’t even tell his thoughts or his plans.

Barbara seems to enjoy my reaction because she continues the next moment, “My Dad is good friends with the Moore family so of course, when he asks for something, they can’t refuse him.”I almost laughed to myself. So, instead of vying for a better position she snags the secretary’s position?“You should be ashamed of yourself that a secretary desk is the only position you found befitting to occupy with all your connections,” I sneer, putting her down immediately.Barbara doesn’t seem too bothered with my response instead, she twirls a strand of her hair. “At least my family love me so dearly that they will be willing to do anything for me unlike yours who will treat an adopted daughter better than their biological daughter.” I am not hurt by Barbara’s statement because I have long accepted reality. But I think of her as a full who goes around spewing statements she shouldn’t be saying.The worst part of it all is that she doesn’t seem to mind where she is before speaking mindles
Last Updated : 2024-10-12My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Brenda's Absurd Request
As soon as I sit, Christopher asks, “How did you get your hands on the CCTV footage?”Instantly, my heart leaps in my chest. I wasn’t expecting that to be his concern. Isn’t he supposed to talk about the one-night stand and our arranged marriage?There is no way I can lay my cards out on the table when I don’t know his intentions, so I reply, “I had a little help from others?” “Little help?” Christopher lifts a brow , hinting at his need for me to continue.“I paid to get it for me,” I lie without batting an eye.I know the man sitting in front of me is no fool, and that’s the reason I have to answer all his questions with all confidence, hoping that he would accept them. Unfortunately for me, he looks like he doesn’t buy them.Christopher pauses for a moment and leans away from his food, his gaze still on me. “Emily, I will be contented if you directly tell you don’t want to answer my questions. Don’t make me a fill by telling me lies.”As I wonder how he found that out so ea

I feel the urgent need to settle things with Christopher before his inauguration ceremony in two days, so I don’t think twice before dialling his contact. The call goes to voicemail after two rings, so I try again. In the end, I fail to reach him. I end up leaving him a text before going straight to the kitchen to grab some food. “Emily, you are back,” Mum says, surprised to see me when enters the kitchen to give instructions for dinner. “What time did you arrive?”I literally have no idea if Mum is worried that I might have overheard Brenda’s outburst or not, so I just give her a vague response.“Not long,” I say and quickly disappear from her sight before she can throw another question at me.I am surprised to see two missed call notifications on my phone when I return and immediately, I unlock my phone to see they were from Christopher.I quickly put away my bowl of noodles and call him back not minding if they turn soggy. The phone rings once before connecting.“Hello, Mr
Last Updated : 2024-10-14My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Emily's Dirty Thoughts
“Let me ask you again.” Christopher stares at me. “Are you ready to answer my questions and tell the truth?”It only takes three seconds before I nod my head frantically. “Yes.” I am the only who will end up losing, not him. “How did you get your hands on those CCTV footages?” Christopher asks.I lower my gaze, not daring to meet his as I reply, “I hacked into Exclusive XX Club’s server.”“You did what?” Christopher’s brows furrows as he squints his eyes. My gaze meet his. I bet this isn’t the answers he is expecting.“I hacked into their server,” I repeat, lowering my gaze again. It feels weird for the first time in so many years that I revealed a bit of me that no one knows since I returned.It makes me feel I’m naked and I can’t begin to comprehend the other feelings and the thoughts going on in my head. “You? No one gave the clips to you?” Christopher asks in disbelief and my gaze quickly shoots up.“You thought someone gave the clips to me?” I ask. “Why didn’t you belie

“I’m not sure you know this, but I was kidnapped by child traffickers when I was eight years old. Fortunately, I escaped from their hands three days later. But I passed out in the forest after running for so long. And when I opened my eyes, I was sleeping a bit and being tended by a middle aged lady...”Tears from in my eyes as I recall and retell my painful past story. Those were the years I solely lived for the purpose of one day reuniting with my parents, but who knew it would all be for nothing.The hope of seeing them again, finally running into their arms, being taken care of by them and being showered lots of love was what kept me going and living amongst strangers in a harsh environment I’d never seen before.This is why it still breaks my heart no matter how many time I try to feign ignorance and a stone heart against my parents treatment.“If I had known that I would be treated this way after reuniting with my parents, would have preferred to die because death came knock
Last Updated : 2024-10-16My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon I will Marry You
Christopher and I exchange glances, and it takes me a while to respond to him. “I don’t mind,” I say and finish the rest of my sentence in my head. ‘As long as Brenda doesn’t force her way.’I really do not mind being single if Christopher backs off from the marriage arrangement just as long as Brenda doesn’t get him.“Do you think it’s possible to maintain two roles after what went down between us?” Christopher asks, expecting an honest reply.From the way he is staring at me, I believe he begs to differ.“As long as we both don’t mind, there is nothing wrong with it,” I say and end up regretting it because I sound desperate now, so I quickly correct myself.“Christopher I know that we’ve both come a long way and a lot has happened between us. Believe me when I say I don’t want to mess your life up. I can’t afford to lose my job. I need it, and that’s why I want you to keep me.”Christopher nods, his brows knitting in curiosity. He leans back into his seat and says to me, “Wh

As soon as I clock off work, I drive straight to a branded store to buy a new dress for tomorrow’s event.I dare not go to the previous mall for fear of bumping into Barbara Collins as I’m worried on her reaction when she says a black card in my hands.Fortunately, I don’t have to worry about that and shop to my heart’s content.Though Christopher had instructed me to get whatever I wanted, I’m still a bit sceptical about spending his money, so I’m mindful of the price tags.As I’m going through the third clothing rack, a call comes into my phone. Lo and behold, it’s Tessa so I quickly swipe my finger across the screen to take it.“Hey, girl! Are you off work?” Tessa asks excitedly.“Yeah, some minutes ago,” I reply, sounding excited because I am.“Do you have an outfit ready for tomorrow?” she asks almost immediately.I stare at the pink jumpsuit in front of my eyes and smile. “I’m on it.”“I have some time now, let’s shop together. I’m going to let my stylist pick something

My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Christopher Proves A Point to Barbara
“What’s funny?” Christopher asked in genuine confusion as he met my gaze, but I quickly shook my head, refusing to answer that question. “Nothing,” I smiled at him. “I shall return to my desk. Have a good day, Mr. Moore, and see you at your lunch.” As soon as I made my statement clear, I opened the door and walked out, shutting it with a soft thud. Then it took me a few moments to recover and adjust my emotions before making my way back to my office. Stella was eagerly waiting for my return which was evident from the way she leaned out of her table as soon as she saw me walk back in. “What is Mr. Moore’s excuse this time around?” she inquired with her gaze on me and I told her the exact reason Christopher gave to me. “Oh…” Stella drawled. She had a mixed expression at the news. While she was happy that Barbara wasn’t promoted because she was deserving of that position, she was still a bit dissatisfied with her. Just like me, she must be wondering if there wasn’t any other w
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Christopher Gives His Reasons
“I just stepped into the office this morning and learned the worst news in recent times since I started work at Transcorp,” Stella started, turning her full attention to me. And I can tell by the way her jaw flexed that she was trying hard to control her emotions. I pretended not to have any idea of what she was talking about just to be on the safer side and probed, “What bad news did you hear?” “Barbara Collins was promoted and moved from the secretary’s desk to the Management department. Didn’t you hear about it when you clocked in this morning?” Stella inquired, narrowing her eyes. I could tell she was just mad at the situation, and not at me, so there wasn’t any need for me to lie to her, especially when she was being so honest with me. “I heard about it,” I admitted as my shoulders naturally slumped. I’ve been tensed all morning since finding out the news, and I still felt that Christopher owed me some answers. “And you have no idea why she was given a promotion she didn
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Emily's Anger
Emily’s POV. As the warm water from the shower splashes on my head and pours down my body, I can’t help but think about Christopher and what he was doing now. We didn’t have much time to ourselves at work today and standing under the shower only made me miss him more. Thoughts of Christopher occupied my mind until I turned off the shower and stepped back into my bedroom dressed in my pyjamas. And in my bid to quickly check my phone to see if there has been any text from him yet, I discovered that one of my bags which I returned from work with, was missing. My brows creased in worry as I began to think of the place where I must have left it because I am quite sure that I took both bags with me while leaving my office. “Did I leave it my car or...?” My thoughts immediately come to a halt when I finally remembered the last possible place where I might have left it. Almost immediately, anger consumed me as I opened my door and stormed out of my bedroom. I can’t imagine that I w
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Dropping The Final Bomb
“Honey, you should know my sister doesn’t care about how long she has known this Christopher before deciding to marry him,” I said to Oliver, my tone dripping with honey. “So, she only cares about taking revenge on me?” Oliver asked, meeting my gaze with a scowl sitting on his face. He looked very displeased as if Emily didn’t have any right to do as she pleased with her life. I smirked to myself and slowly nodded in response, as innocence contoured my face. I have to sow more discord why pretending to be oblivious to them. “I believe that’s what she is thinking about. Also, like I said, this Christopher Moore is from the famous prominent Moore family. Emily will definitely pick him as her partner as along as she feels he’s better than you.” As I made that striking statement of indirectly calling Oliver inferior, I laughed inwardly as I watched him gnash his teeth from the corner of my eyes. But then, I had to go into another coughing fit as my expression grew weary. Almost i
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Dumb in Her Sight
Brenda’s POV.I have been sitting in my bedroom, impatiently waiting for Oliver to come find me since I heard of his arrival, but I have no idea of what has been keeping him downstairs. If I didn’t have to pretend to be totally helpless, I would have already found my way to the living room long ago. But as if Oliver could sense my displeasure, he knocked softly on my door and came in when I weakly approved. “Babe,” Oliver called me softly as he quickly rushed over to my side with concern laced in his brows. “How are you?” My eyes turned teary as I attempted to sit up on the bed, but he quickly assisted me saying, “You don’t have to struggle to do this while I’m here,” While I enjoy this, I can’t help but actually hope that his mind is still divided. It would be futile for him not to be concerned about Emily and her impending wedding after my efforts last night. I won’t even let it happen.“I have been waiting for your visit. What took you so long?” I asked weakly, allowing m
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Outsmarting Oliver Jones
Emily’s POV.Work was a lot tasking today. I felt so exhausted that I could use a full body massage to relax my tensed nerves. But this is something only a phone call from Christopher would have solved. Sadly, he is pretty occupied today.As soon as I finished the last document I had to review for the day, I shut my computer and left the company, expecting to get home and get some rest only for me return home and see Oliver and his parents sitting in the living room chatting with Mum and Dad.Honestly, I had no idea the Jones’ would be in our house today even though Mrs. Jones had phoned Mum last night. Although I had heard Mum’s happy voice from the door as I walked a minute ago, it never occured to me that there were only a handful of people she invited home and had this kind of reaction with while chatting, and that the Jones should be the more appropriate family.My stomach churned, especially at the sight of Oliver. I don’t know why he still affected me so badly even though
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Promoting Barbara Collins
Barbara was a bit uncomfortable with my out-of-the-blue question. Her lashes fluttered lightly as she looked towards her father for help, but he either didn’t see her since he wasn’t looking her way, or he pretended not to have seen her subtle gesture.Whichever one it was, I am still waiting for Barbara’s response because I won’t let her get away with this. Her actions are annoying and the sight of her is irritating.Seeing that she couldn’t get away with my interrogation she smiled sheepishly and returned her gaze back to me.“I took a half-day off from work today.”“Why?” I probed, leaning out of my seat with all manner of curiosity as a deafening silence hit the room. And I’m glad that everyone apart from Barbara knew better but to be silent.Barbara looked anywhere but at me as she answered my question. “I wasn’t feeling too well, but I’m all good now.”A scoff escaped my lips before I could gauge my reaction. Nothing infuriated me more than this woman’s nonchalance at my
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Barbara and Her Father's Visit
THURSDAY. Christopher’s POV. Thursday was a busy day for me and I barely had the time to check on Emily. But to make up for it, I invited her to have lunch with me during lunch break. Emily looked a bit stunned by the offer as she set my food down. “I have my lunch already. Also, while it’s true that Stella won’t say anything since she knows we are together, we can’t disrupt the work ethic” Emily said to me with slightly furrowed brows. If this had been any other day, I would have let her escape unfortunately for her, I’m not in that mood, so I pinned my gaze to her and ask, “Are you sure you don’t want to have lunch with me, and would prefer eating with others?” I asked her that question, I rubbed my jaw subtly with my fingers and licked my lower lips without doing as much as blinking. How could Emily resist this temptation? I am not always proud, but some special occasions calls for it, like today. Emily let out a deep sigh and plopped herself on the couch.
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoon Tessa's Warning
Emily’s POV. “I see that you are happy and satisfied with your best friend,” Christopher said with his gaze on me as he crossed his leg over the other while sitting on a chair as Tessa and I walked into the room and shut the door. From the shameless attitude he displayed back in the dining room, I thought that I would see him on my bed by now, but it turned out that he could be a gentleman when he wanted. “Of course, she’s always proud of me,” Tessa jumped in before words could form in my mouth. “Are you jealous that you don’t have any good friend like they way we do?” “Who said I don’t have good friends? What do you take me for?” Christopher retorted. Meanwhile, Tessa pretended to think for a moment before saying, “Oh... I remember now. All your friends are living abroad, so you are back here alone and lonely.” Tessa wriggled her eyebrows playfully after finishing her remark and I bet she’s very proud of herself while Christopher remained unaffected with her teasing until th
