One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 30 Banquet Troubles.
Giselle stayed outside for a while longer until the clouds began to darken before she went inside.On entering inside, Ezra was nowhere to be seen. Giselle didn’t think twice about it and plopped down into one of the couches. Grabbing the remote, she tuned in to one of her favorite Teen-toon on YouTube. As she was currently feeling stressed, the brunette had a notion of always watching something light instead of watching some of her favorite series.Angel’s Friend, it wasn’t like some of the recent Teen-toons that had no head nor tail. The show had a way of making the twenty-three year old sing along to its opening theme and stay invested even after she had binge watched the whole two seasons which had a total number of a hundred and four episodes.Half way into her current episode, Giselle felt her stomach cry for food. Not bothering to object, she stood up and went straight to the kitchen.After she had ransacked a few ingredients together, the brunette began preparing herself a hot

In a second, Emerald’s facial expression went from anger to the neutral face of a perfect role model.“Miss Heinrich, forgive my rude manners. I was in such a rush that I accidentally bumped into your shoulder.” She placed out her hand and with a dazzling smile, she introduced herself once more. “My name’s Emerald Stone. Hope I can make a better impression next time.”Giselle looked down at her waiting hand, and instead of shaking it, she picked up a drink and took a sip from it, keeping her gaze locked with Emerald’s ocean green orbs as she did so.“I’m glad you acknowledged your rude mannerism, you should take some time out of society and work on them,” She paused and walked to stand beside Ezra, wrapping her hands around his arm and laying her head on his shoulder. “So that when next we meet, you’d make a better impression.”Emerald gritted her teeth and searched Giselle’s unwavering eyes. She didn’t want to create a scene and from the looks of things; she had no reason to further

Giselle almost panicked. She was sure that Emerald had seen through their act.But how?Emerald bore her deep green eyes into Giselle’s light ones. “I’ve seen girls like you. I know you’re only with Ezra for his money.” She growled.‘Ezra?’ Giselle arched one of her brows. But she was highly relieved. It looked like the lady standing before her, in fact knew nothing about her and Ezra’s relationship.Straightening up her shoulders, Giselle spoke. “Miss Stone, I think you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not with Ezra for his money. I’m not that shallow.” She scanned her from head to toe and smiled. “And I’ll appreciate it if you called addressed my Fiancé properly.” She placed great emphasis on the word ‘my Fiancé.’Emerald suddenly stepped close and Giselle instinctively took a step of hers back. She had learnt more than enough from Raquel.“Don’t fret.” Emerald uttered, smirking at the way she thought Giselle feared her presence. Delusional. “I don’t mean any harm, I just want to have a con

Ezra held Giselle close to his chest the whole ride back. The brunette didn’t complain. She quietly stayed in his embrace, enjoying the warm feeling his damp body was giving off.At first she tried to oppose to her body enjoying his embrace, but as she laid her head on Ezra chest and listened to the light rhythm of his heart, she completely melted into his hold.The journey back was shorter but by the time they arrived, Giselle had dozed of in Ezra’s arm.Stepping out, Ezra gently picked her up in bridal style and went into the mansion. He climbed up the stairs and stopped in between the rooms, slightly hesitating, he pushed open the door to his room and stepped in.Giselle stirred a little bit as he placed her in a siting position, putting one hand behind her neck to support her body, while the other one undid the zipper of her dress.He carefully slipped it of, placing her body back on the bed as she mumbled incoherent words. Getting her into a new set of cloths wasn’t as hard as hi

‘Two weeks my ass.’ Giselle thought as she ignored Eva, who was currently stepping into the elevator.The blonde reached out and pressed their floor.“Aren’t you happy to see me back?” Eva sneered as she glared.Giselle ignored her and tapped her feet, waiting for the elevator to arrive on their floor.Eva clicked her tongue and shook her head. “After breaking my nose and getting me suspended, the least you can say is hello, when you see me.”‘You deserved all those.’ Giselle roamed her eyes around the elevator as she thought.“I heard you’ve been acting all high and mighty as of late. Congratulations on being a bitch.”“Don’t you ever shut up?” Giselle finally breaks and sends a cold glared at Eva, the latter squeeze her eyes and steps forward.Just when she was about to say something, the elevator dinged open and Giselle walked out without a second look at Eva.‘Saved by the bell.’Giselle didn’t give a shit about what Eva wanted to say and walked to her workspace. The atmosphere se
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 35 Not So Peaceful Lunch Break.
Around lunch break, Giselle brought Evelyn to one of her Favorite restaurants. Euphoric Gardens.It was a common restaurant for the residents that lived around that part of town.Just like the name; Euphoric Gardens had a relaxing smell and atmosphere to it.Evelyn admired the place in awe, taking in its quiet yet beautiful surroundings.“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Giselle said as she lead Evelyn to the last seat in the furthest corner of the restaurant.Evelyn nodded her head in response. “It’s beautiful. How’d you find it?”“I was hungry and stumbled across it. A friend and I had gone adventuring into the unknown.” Giselle explained.Evelyn couldn’t help and sniffle a laugh, which made Giselle smile.“Let’s order.” Giselle passed the extra menu towards Evelyn and peeled hers open, dragging her finger through the list of foods.“It’s your treat, right?” Evelyn briefly glanced up from the menu as she asked.Giselle chuckled. “Yes, it is.”The noirette couldn’t be more happier and picked he
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 36 Ezra Is A Father?
“What is it?” Giselle inquired.“Simple.” Evelyn raised her index finger. “Promise to eat lunch with me. Here.”“Is… is that all?” Giselle asked, bewildered.“Yes. Were you expecting some ridiculous demand?”“I uh, I just expected… nothing, forget it. And uhm, sure? I’ll eat with you at lunch. Here.”Evelyn’s eyes lit up as she pushed her food out of the way and grabbed Giselle’s hand. The brunette’s eyes widened in surprise.“What… what are you doing.”“I have a feeling that we’re going to get along well.” She genuinely smiled and Giselle felt the warmth in Evelyn’s eyes spread into her body through their connected hands.Nodding her head, Giselle answered with a soft smile of her own. “Yeah, I hope so.”***************Evelyn and Giselle stepped off the cab, in front of the company’s building. They had made it back from their lunch break with time to spare.Evelyn looked up at the building and sighed, already feeling the weight of work hanging on her shoulder.Giselle paid the cab a
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 37 Dinner Date.
“Daddy has to go now, Grendel, Jason.” Ezra cooed to the children in front of him. He had squatted down to their heights and was softly stroking their head.The two kids didn’t look too happy at the news of their ‘father’ leaving.“Don’t go, Daddy Ezra. Mummy Giselle please let him stay.” Jason begged.Giselle looked at the kids, almost lost in their beautiful eyes.“I’m sorry, Jason. But we have to leave. I’d really love to stay with you guys. You lot are wonderful children, anybody would be happier being around you.”The children’s faces lighted up at Giselle comment, it was like a total three-sixty to their begging a few seconds ago.“Promise you’ll come back?” Grendel pulled out her little finger and Giselle locked hers around, smiling gently at the child’s behavior.“Promise.”After saying their final goodbyes, Ezra and Giselle hopped into the car, Giselle in the driver’s seat and Ezra in the passenger.“How cute are they?” Giselle mused as she navigated her way out of the orphan

~Four Months Later~The blazing hot sun of autumn's last days shone through the window of a bridal room, basking the wooden floor board below in it glorious golden glow.But despite the beautiful day and joyous occasion about to begin, chaos and panic ensued with the four walls of that very room.It was about thirty minutes to the start of the days special occasion, yet the star woman was no where to be seen, and the noirette who had so willingly agreed to be her chiefs bridesmaid was currently in a full on panic.Evelyn had one job. A rather simple one if you asked anyone. And what was it? She had to make sure the bride was dressed, ready, and okay to walk down the isle with her father beside her by the time the hour and minute hand struck eleven."Babe?" In walked Gregory after several knocks on the door only to see the noirette searching far and wide with a panicked look on her face."Hey... hey did you lose something important?" Gregory asked, finally catching his girlfriend in hi
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 79 Moment Of Regret.
Jogging towards the room Giselle and her father were being held captive in, Ezra could almost feel everything ending. He couldn't already envision his and Giselle's peaceful life after everything was over, and as he turned the finally corner, seeing the room just up head, the brunette stock up a mental note, reminding himself to bring up the topic of adopting Grendel and Jason in the later future. Those two were happy fur balls, who'd be able to take their eyes off them after a single visit.Finally reaching the room, Ezra banged his fist against it and called out. "Giselle? Mr. Cornwell?" His call was answered by two voices from the inside, calming his beating heart as they were the two voices he had anticipated to hear.Stepping back, Ezra kicked the door twice, the metal gate coming down at his third and final kick.Giselle felt like the heavens had sent her very own guardian angel as Ezra walked in, the door laying beneath his feet as he marched in, not wasting a second as he sped

The ground felt cold and hard as Giselle helplessly sat on it. Maybe it was the after effect of Gregory's betrayal that made the concrete below seem more chilly than usual, or it could just be the fact that winter was right around the corner. The brunette didn't know, and she didn't want to know.Bringing her knees up, she buried her face in between them, feeling helpless as usual.The brunette's moment of sulking was cut short when movement from the other end and the sound of muffled breathing caught her attention."Who's there?" She asked, squinting her eyes in the dark room and slightly back up towards the door. Her question was answered by another series of muffled noise, propelling the petit woman to stand up from the floor and slowly advance forward, away from her current position.When Giselle had reached a certain distance, closer to the person which she now realized was tied to a chair and gagged at the mouth, her eyes widened, instantly recognizing the person there."Dad!" T
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 77 Game Over.
"Game over Ezra." Archie crackled like a hyena, souring the mood of Ezra, Giselle and Evelyn.Giselle's eyes fluttered in disbelieve, feeling her insides turn as she stared at Gregory, who in return stared back without any form of remorse.'Freaking Traitor.' Giselle thought, only having the courage to pull her gaze off the noirette after several minutes of staring.Gregory was right; never trust anyone until you know what they harbor in their heart. But if only she had applied that method sooner... way sooner than Ethan and Raquel, maybe then, she wouldn't have moved with the worse set of people."Fucking traitors." The brunette spat in a low rumble, gaining the attention of the villainess herself."What was that?" The blonde asked as she stepped forward, leaning in with her ear in a taunting manner.Giselle could have swore there was a voice in her head telling her to leap forward and chew off the spinster's ear."You all are bunch of fucking traitors. Disgusting." She voiced her in

Evelyn hid in a corner as she sent the address to Gregory's number. She was silently regretting not turning off the flash of her camera, as that was what had put her in the situation which she currently was in. It had all happened so fast, all she wanted to do was take a simple picture as evidence, exposing all or one third of Archie's evil plans and misdeed to the authorities, as per the first half of their plans, but then that was when it happened, the moment she took the photo containing their evidence, her flash went off, alerting Archie and her thugs.The noirette didn't waste a second there and took off, hearing the witch herself bark orders, probably to catch her and bring her back, she didn't want to find out.So now, here she was, running and hiding, praying that Gregory would get to her location on time before she became dog food."This is gonna cost more than a bowl of noodles Giselle." The noirette silently whispered to herself as she peaked out from her hiding spot, a ser

"Don't play dumb with me Gregory. Ezra wakes up one morning then suddenly decides to make a run for it? Fine, let me rephrase my question." Giselle stepped in close, raising her head to meet Gregory's gaze. "You know where your sister is holding my father, don't you?"Gregory blinked his eyes, secretly surprised at how quick the brunette had caught up to things.'Was she always this quick.' He questioned himself."Gregory, you know something that I don't, where are they?" Giselle questioned the more, stepping in closer, the questioned male standing his ground and holding her gaze, his blue orbs boring into hers as her green ones searched his."What makes you so confident?" He suddenly questioned, causing Giselle to furrow her brows. "My sister committed a crime for the sake of love, as her relative, shouldn't you fear me?"The brunette tilted her head, lost to as why he was now uttering nonsense."What? No. You're not the type to do such." She uttered, hoping to push down the rising a
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 74 Waking Up To An Empty Bedside.
The sound of quiet and tired snoring filed the rather silent room. Light dimed to perfection and A.C chilling, Ezra silently watched his fiancée sleep, carefully playing with her hair as not to wake her up.If words could describe the emotions running around in his heart, Ezra would have found it easy to put them into words.With a sigh, the brunette slid under the duvet, embracing the body of his fiancée and earning a hum from her as he buried his face into the crock of her neck."Ezra?" Giselle called out groggily, still overcome by sleep. "You're still up?"Ezra hummed into her neck in disagreement. "It's just..." the brunette paused on his words, rethinking his choice of words before continuing. "...nothing."Giselle hummed in understanding, too tired to form actual words.When Ezra saw that she was falling back asleep, he cradled her more in his arms, pulling her closer and seeking her body's warmth as he spoke. "Don't worry, it'd all be over by tomorrow."Giselle heard those wor

The sound of phone ringing disturbed Evelyn from her peaceful evening sleep. The noirette stirred in the bed, reluctant to answer the phone, seeing as today was one of her rare days off. After the phone rang for an extra few minutes, she groaned and turned around, feeling around the bed for the noise making device."Hello?" She asked after picking up the phone, making no effort to check the caller's ID."Hey, Evelyn, it's me."Her eyes snapped open, brown orbs enlarging as she pulled back and glanced at the caller, series of slurred curses left her mouth as she pushed her body up, resting her back against the bedrest of her bed. "What do you want, Fisher? Never thought you'll go fishing for my number, am I really that stunning."Gregory wasn't sure what made him chuckle, the fact that she'd believe he actually searched for her number, or the fact that she choose to stick with his surname even after he had insisted that she call him on a casual basis.Hearing him chuckle from the other

Giselle spent the next hour or so listening to people question her. At some point in time things started to look like the poor girl was being interrogated. Weren't they meant to be doing other jobs instead of questioning her?"That's enough." She mumbled under her breath, gaze solely trained on the back of her Fiancée as he too seemed to be undergoing the same procedure as her, and from his reactions, she didn't think it was going well."Pardon?" The female officer asked as she took a step forward, halting what she had been writing into her jolt pad.Tearing her gaze away, Giselle coldly answered. "I said that's enough.""But Ms. Heinrich...""She said that's enough." Ezra interrupted the officer as he walked over, finally done with his own part of the questioning, and might i tell you, it didn't go pleasantly.The officer cowered under Ezra's gaze, but nonetheless, she dared to speak. "Mr. Heinrich, forgive me but this is the normal procedures. It has to be carried out accordingly as
