ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Just the way I'm
POV “Ele, over here….”I looked around as I had someone call my name and I saw Lucy coming towards me.There were both men and women in the lounge. I spotted a familiar face in the crowd, and I halted immediately.I felt a dull ache in my heart.I dated Michael six years ago. He was a playboy and he cheated on me.In my curiosity, I looked around, but didn't see any woman.“Ele, why were you standing in a gaze? Lucy asked.“Happy birthday Lucy” I said as I came back to my senses. I tried to act calm as I gave Lucy a gift.Contempt flashed across Lucy's eyes when she saw the gift box I was holding.The lady standing beside her burst out in laughter when she looked at it as well.“Ele, don't you think this gift looks too shabby? Lucy said.“How much is it? Someone from the crowd shouted.Lucy took the box and opened it. A pair of gold studded earrings was inside. She picked it up and shook it in front of the crowd.“I bet this is not up to thirty bucks. She probably got it at a mall”“
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO I'm in trouble
POV As Sebastian spoke, he came closer to me. I was hanging my head low.“What are you doing here? He asked in a low tone.While I was still shivering in fear, he dragged me and pulled me to him, shielding me with his arm.Everyone who was making a joke of me initially looked in shock as they saw his domineering action.Before he left, he tilted his body slightly, raking a gaze at the crowd.“You better be on your best behavior whenever you see Eleanor” he said as his gaze fell on Lucy.The glint in his eyes made Lucy terrified. She dared not stare at his eyes again.She took a step backwards as she became frightened.Lucy and the others coaxed me to drink when she knew I was light-headed and as such, I became tipsy and drowsy.Sebastian guards drove the car closer, and they helped me get into the car.As I entered the car, I perceived a whiff of Sebastian's familiar scent.I clung onto his embrace and held his waist like a teddy bear.Sebastian was still stock throughout the ride. I
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Sudden encounter
POV I called Ethan, and immediately I got home.“Hello, my child drew on your car. How much do I have to pay as compensation? I asked.“Umm…slightly over five though Dollars. If I round it up, it will make it five thousand dollars”.“Five thousand dollars!!! I shouted.I was devastated.“I take care of my kids from the salary I earn, I don't have such an amount of money. Can I please pay installmentally? I pointed out.“Where is your husband?I choked and rolled my eyes on hearing his question.I went speechless.Ethan, who was on the other side of the phone, paused for a moment.“Alright, I will let you pay installmentally"I was beyond relieved when he finally accepted. My kids were having the best time of their lives with their new toys.Matthew was practicing how to shoot with his toy gun.While Robert and Victoria were running around. Suddenly, Victoria fell to the floor and started crying.Robert ran towards her and comforte
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Will you marry me
My heart was beating so fast that I was sure he could hear it.I felt completely helpless, like a fly being caught in a web.“Mr. Donovan, will you marry me if I let you touch me? I asked.My nerves were tense as I patiently gazed at him.I had to think about that to throw him off my trail. I wouldn't have let him guess about the kids. “What do you mean by that? He asked as his dark gaze fell on me.“I will let you touch me if you marry me” I continued.Everyone has always talked about Mr. Donovan being a playboy bachelor. He wasn't the type that would ever get married, and I'm sure at the mention of marriage it will scare him off.I flinched uncomfortably immediately. His grip tightened on my jaw and forced me to look at him.“Is that what you want? He asked. His voice was like a deep roar.“Well, I don't think anyone would ever refuse to being Mrs. Donovan. Who doesn't want a Cinderella love story” I said as I tried my best to calm my nerves?I was battling with mixed emotions in
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO You have dared me
Eleanor's POV As I got laid off from work, it shocked my female colleagues who wanted to try their luck at Sebastian.They discovered it was all lies when Ethan put them in their places.“Mr. Donovan is off limits as always” he said.I didn't go home. Immediately, I started job hunting. I wasn't feeling bad at all, it was my wish.After hours of unsuccessful job hunt, I finally went home.As I got home, pushed the door, my little pumpkins squeezed their body through the door. They all ran towards me.Robert hugged my legs as I tried to walk into the house.“No Robert stop… “ Before I could finish my sentence, I fell to the floor.They all laughed and made sure I was alright.“Mummy….“I could have fallen on you. Don't stand on the way next time” I warned.“They have been waiting restlessly for you, they kept asking why you weren't back” the nanny said.“Mummy had a lot of work today. '' I said and caressed their cheeks.After they all had their meal, the nanny started playing with th
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Unpredictable
Eleanor's POV “It's all your fault, I was serious about it, but you laid me off. You have missed your opportunity to get….”My sentence was cut short as he pressed his mouth against mine.My breath seized straight from my lungs as he deepened the kiss. His tongue was exploring mine hungrily.Time stopped, the world stopped and all I could remember was the warmth of his muscular body pressed against mine, the taste of his lips.Only God knows how I have missed it.Suddenly, something clicked deep within my mind and I came back to my senses.I struggled to free myself away from his grip, but it made him kiss me even deeper.He groaned, spilling into my mouth. I felt his desire yearn for me, and I was weak to fight it. My body kept responding out of its accord.“Stop” I shouted as I broke free from him.I tried pushing him away but failed. I slapped his hands in panic, but his embrace became more firm and strong, making my struggles in vain.I know he was trying to teach me a lesson, bu
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Come back to work
Whenever I see him, I remember his betrayal, it was more of a betrayal than a break-up.“Wow, since you're his girlfriend, I will give you a discount. Pick any design you like” the lady said."No, thanks,” I said as I kept back the album and left.Before I could get to the door, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back.“Ouch,” I gasped as I almost fell on him.“What do you think you're doing?“We might have broken up yes, but there is no need for you to act so indifferent toward me”“We are not close and never will be," I said and pushed his hands off.“And stop telling people I was your Ex. We never dated” I said before walking out without looking back.Michael stood quietly looking at me with a hint of regret on his face.“Why did you both break up?” the lady asked.Michael suddenly turned around and gave her a mean look. That look meant she should return to work and mind her business.I felt like going to a soothsayer. I want to know why I was always unlucky. How could I meet Michea
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Take them away
“I want an easy-going job that pays me a lot of money,” I answered.“Yet, you keep trying to get laid off”I looked at the elevator number, hoping it would pass quickly. I didn't want to be trapped with Ethan anymore. We are getting close to the truth.“You wouldn't understand”He nodded without responding, and I was a bit relieved by his silence.I thought the first thing that would happen was to face Sebastian. I wasn't expecting to be led into the secretarial department.I later learned about Nick's dismissal, and I quickly remembered the announcement.Even relatives will not be spared. Sebastian never goes back on his words once his mind is made up.The message was clear.When Wendy saw me, she congratulated me on my return to the secretarial department. I didn't mention anything about my relationship with Sebastian or the reason I was laid off.At noon, I stood at the entrance of the conference room welcoming the top management, also Sebastian. His presence alone intimidated me.

ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Reported
“Sebastian, I heard you have bought the RSTV station. Is that true? She asked.“Is there anything you want to say? He asked.“I'm just surprised, that's all. But I know you have a reason behind your decision. It's just that I don't like Eleanor.”His gaze darkened, and he stopped what he was doing.“I bet you are not aware that she tried to seduce Michael. I even saw her going into his car last night, and they left together.”Sebastian, who was busy with some files all these while, raised his head on hearing her.He was emitting a cold aura from his head to toe.When she sensed he was staring intently at her, she shrugged and hurriedly straightened her posture like she was in a comfortable position.“I'm not lying, if you doubt me, then you can ask the TV station manager. He was at the bar as well. That girl is too ambitious. If not for the fact that you said you won't change any staff, I would have dismissed her, but there is nothing I can say.” He pushed the files away from the des

“You ignorant bitch!! How dare you lay your filthy hands on me” she asked, boiling in rage.“You can't slap anybody as you wish, Miss Baker. This is a payback slap, learn to stop taking advantage of others.” I said unyieldingly.The TV station manager was shocked as he pointed at me and snarled.“You have got some guts, huh? Do you know who she is? She is Mr. Donovan's fiancé, the CEO of Skyline Group. Where the hell did you get such courage to hit her? I will make your life miserable in Springville.”Just as I was about to talk, a voice from behind interrupted me.“I'm not aware an ordinary TV station manager now has the final say in Springville.”I turned around and saw Michael walking in with his hands in his pocket. He had a stern expression on his face.The manager was shocked and tried to change his words.“Umm… I was only trying to caution her, nothing else.”Knowing that Michael was a tough one, Taylor tried to get hold of herself.“The manager isn't wrong. Since she had the g

Now I won't be able to leave this TV station until he says so>Taylor hopped down from her car as soon as she got to the TV station. She walked quickly in high heels.Wendy, who was waiting for her at the door, pointed out to her.“Wow, so she knows she is late. I thought she didn't have self-awareness at all.” I eyed her but didn't say a word.I remembered how I was always scolded by her the last time I was working at the TV station. Wendy hated it when someone was late.Unfortunately, she couldn't dare to say anything to Taylor Baker.When Taylor saw Wendy and I standing at the door, she slowed down her step and looked at us arrogantly.“Miss Baker, you have arrived. I have been waiting for…” Before Wendy could finish her sentence, Taylor interrupted her.“Sebastian is waiting for me, right? I already told him I would be a bit late.” She said as she showed off.“Do you know he doesn't want me to stress myself, but I choose to be independent.”Wendy and I looked at her awkwardly.“E

Wendy leaned closer to me before she asked the question. She didn't want anyone to hear her.I never thought she would ask such a question while thinking about what Taylor Baker looked like. “You are prettier,” I said hesitantly.“I want to tell you a secret, just because you praised me. Taylor Baker is Sebastian Donovan of Skyline Group's fiancée.” She said.I was shocked.“It's shocking, right? That's why you have to be careful during the interview. Don't say what you shouldn't say, I don't need to remind you. Are we clear?I understood what she was saying.“We are clear.”The last thing I wanted was to lose this job.“Good.” She said and left.This was the first time I heard Sebastian has a fiancé.I had no idea even while I was working in the skyline group.I quickly went to find out what Taylor Baker looked like, or else it would be embarrassing if I didn't recognize her when she arrived.However, I was shocked when j saw her picture. I looked at it in disbelief.I waited for he
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Buy the TV station
Thereafter, Michael didn't do anything intimate with me. He only whispered a few words, then he let me go.From the look on his face, while watching the footage, he knew we interacted and were not newly acquainted.He stood up angrily.“Mr Donovan, the people of RSTV station don't know the relationship between Michael and Eleanor.Nothing is going on between them.” Ethan said.“Nothing, huh? He asked in a deep voice. His gaze was still fixed on the footage.He thought, and his facial muscles were tense.Ethan stood quietly, staring at him. He didn't dare breathe loudly.Without the footage, no one would have ever known we knew each other. However, it has said it all. Michael and I have known each other for a very long time.“I want you to buy the TV station immediately,” Sebastian yelled and his voice echoed.“Yes sir, I will work on that right away.”Meanwhile, I was happy. I had just finished my interview.I was not only employed, there was no probation period and I signed a contra

“Why are you having snacks and drinks for lunch? He asked.“I thought Selene gave you her debit card.”“Why is my life your business? I asked angrily.His question sounded ridiculous, so I stood up and was about to leave.“Come have lunch with me.” He said and followed.“Why would I want to have lunch with you? There are hundreds of ladies out there who will gladly accept not me.”“None of them would dine with me.” He said.“That's your problem, not mine,” I said and turned to leave.“Eleanor, come on, please. I will take you somewhere nice.”“Fine…” I said as I remembered how hungry I was.We sat by the window side in a high-end restaurant.I couldn't understand what he was trying to do.It felt like he was trying to reconcile with me, but I told him it was never going to happen.Our meal arrived, and I noticed he ordered all of my favorite meals“Michael, I hope you are not trying to get back with me.” I teased.He was taken aback, then he looked at me.“Stop overthinking this.”“It

The lady looked familiar, but I couldn't recognize who she was. Maybe she was a celebrity.I don't pay much attention to celebrities, but I do see them on the news occasionally.“I'm sorry,” I said.The lady looked at me like she noticed something that got her threatened.“Do you work here? She asked, looking irritated.“No.”“Do you know how much this dress costs, can you afford to pay for it, do you think your apology can get the stain off?The staff were all staring at me like snubs. They ignored me because it was a situation of the rich bullying the poor.I didn't want to argue with her. Most importantly, Sebastian might come in soon, so I needed to leave.“Don't you dare try to run away?” The lady (Taylor Baker) said as she grabbed my dress.I was trapped.The door of the restaurant was pushed open and Sebastian walked in with his bodyguards.The manager quickly went to meet him in fear because he wasn't expecting to see him.“Mr. Donovan, would you like us to clear this place?

“Get into the car, let's go home and talk.” She said.I got into the car along with my kids. They were having their chocolate with them.However, Zoe wasn't having any. She sat quietly looking at the chocolate in their hands. It was obvious she wanted hers.Robert looked at her, then back at the chocolate in his hand, then without hesitation, he gave it to her.She was shy at first because she felt awkward. Then she took it.They took turns eating the chocolate.It was an unhygienic game.I wasn't sure if I should stop them or not.On a normal day, Selene would have stopped Zoe, but her focus was currently on me and the kids who she heard call me mummy.She was looking troubled.When we got to my apartment, my kids ran inside. They started playing with each other.It was Zoe's first time here, but she was comfortable with my kids. They went along so well.Meanwhile, Selene kept looking at my apartment while she was observing everywhere, I offered her water.“Thanks but I don't want
ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE CEO Who owns the kid
Eleanor's POV “I never knew you were related to them. Ethan said.I knew he was referring to Mr. Gabriel and Selene. With the look of things, Sebastian wants nothing to do with Donovan's family.“I wasn't aware as well, I just found out recently,” I said.“Was it the reason you wanted to quit? He asked.“Yes.”There was no point lying to him anymore.“As our previous staff, I want you to know that if you have issues getting another job, you can come back and ask Mr. Donovan for help.” “Are you insinuating that no one will hire me if I go look for a job, is it because of Mr. Donovan? I asked, frowning.“No, I'm not insinuating that. All I'm trying to say is if Mr. Donovan decides that no one will hire you, no one would dare go against his order.” He explained.I understood what he was trying to say. Many prestigious company owners are loyal to Mr. Donovan.And if they know I'm fighting against the skyline group, no one would dare go against his command unless they have made up their
