One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 39 She Caused The Misunderstanding.
Gregory’s talk seemed to go on for minutes with no end in near sight. For someone who had work to turn in, he sure had a lot to talk about.Sighing, Giselle placed up her hand with a tight smile, stopping Gregory on his current topic.“Mr. Fisher, don’t you have a ‘work piece’ to turn in?” She reminded.Gregory sighed, not wanting to end their conversation so early. He was particularly fond of Giselle when it came to all his ex employees.Taking a step back, the noirette nodded his head. “I in fact do. How about lunch, I’m sticking around for a few days.”‘A lunch offer? Again?’Skeptical about her answer, Giselle pressed her lips into a thin line. Rejecting Gregory‘s offers was something she could never bring herself to do. It wasn’t like she couldn’t say no, but his tone always held a certain tint to it that left her feeling curious.What if she rejected his offer? What if she went?Those questions always bounced in her head.Before Giselle had the chance to ponder his offer any fur

A misunderstanding that she caused. One that was probably gonna bring more distance between them, even though she didn’t know what it was.Even though distance was she wanted, in order to avoid what could no longer be avoided.‘No.’Giselle turned around and walked back into the office. Both Ezra and Jubril were surprised to see her.“Giselle, I’m busy right now…” before he could finish, Giselle turned to Jubril and commanded.“Jubril, get out.”The assistant didn’t have the energy to protest and gently placed down his clip board and went for the door, properly closing it as he exited.“What is the meaning of this?” Ezra asked as he forehead creased with a frown.Stepping closer to his table, Giselle folded her arms. “I should be the one asking that? You’re obviously pissed at something I did, Ezra, so what is it?”The determination in her eyes shone as she stood her ground.“It’s nothing you did, Giselle.” He confessed with a sigh.Indeed, he was speaking the truth. From his perspect

“What do you mean she escaped?” Ezra demanded as he gripped onto the handle of his chair.Escaping from a mental institution was something Ezra never phantoms Raquel would do, but now she was out there, running wild and doing only God knows what. Ezra didn’t even want to have the slightest thought.“I’m sorry Sir.” Jubril apologized with his head bowed. He truly felt incompetent, whereas it had nothing to do with his competency.“I see no reason why you should apologize. You’re not at fault, apologizing would only make it seem like you’re excessively self-blaming.” Ezra said and sighed. “I’ll assume you haven’t told Giselle about this?”The noirette shook his head. He only just got the news, and Ezra was the first person he was relaying it too. “No.” He firmly answered.“Leave it that way.” Ezra instructed and randomly added. “Place some people to look over Giselle, don’t let her notice. Don’t make it too obvious.” He said and waved Jubril off. “Do your job right this time around.”On
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 42 Rumors.
“Oh God.” Evelyn moaned as she placed another flavorful shrimp in her mouth. Her taste buds were once again assaulted by the unexpected mix of flavors. Her words alone couldn’t describe how delicious the meal was.“This is so good.” She said, complimenting the food yet again. Giselle watched with a smile on her face.She enjoyed watching Evelyn have a taste of different food and when she gave off her different reactions. It was a peaceful pace compared to Giselle’s always hyper life.“It’s that good.” Giselle placed a shrimp in her mouth as she saw Evelyn nod her head.“I can never get used to its taste.” Evelyn chuckled at her mouthful. “Speaking of which,” briefly pausing, she wiped her mouth with a table napkin. “are you aware of the rumors going round?”Giselle raised her brow up in confusion. “Rumors? What about?”Evelyn hesitated to speak, she didn’t want her friend to hear such rumors, but if not from her, she was eventually going to hear it from somewhere else.“You’re having

“Miss Heinrich, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to my boutique.” The elderly looking woman, who Giselle assumed is Madam Rong, greeted with a humble bow.Politely smiling, The brunette stepped forward. “Hello, you must be Madam Rong. It’s a pleasure to meet you too.”Madam Rong smiled at her modest greeting. “We’ve prepared outfits based on the photo Young master Heinrich sent. Please try them on and pick the one that’s to your liking.”"It that so. Well then i'll leave myself in your care." Giselle said and softly bowed her head before glancing at the dress hanger in front. The number and variety of dresses surprised her. But at first glance, the dress that caught her eyes was a lilac colored evening long sleeve gown.She stepped forward and pulled on the sleeves of the dress. The material felt like chiffon."Have you seen any that catches your eyes?" Madam Rong asked as she stood beside Giselle, arms folded in front of her chest. "Ahh, I see the YnanLi caught your fancy. Would
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 44 Party Crasher.
Giselle stepped out of the car with Ezra by her side. She was dolled up and looking all pretty. One third of every person that passed by had to turn their head to stare.Not only was Giselle feeling awkward from all the looks she was getting, Ezra was also getting pissed.Every man’s eye seemed to be on his woman. He didn’t like that.Giselle and Ezra walked into the event building, hands intertwined with each others.The party was being held in a high class event center which had a terrance view overlooking the sparking blue sea.Giselle admired the interior decoration as Ezra guided her towards their seat. She felt her phone vibrate from inside her mini purse reached for it.It was a message from Evelyn. She had been wondering where the brunette disappeared to.Giselle smiled and was about to write a reply when she felt Ezra gently tug on her arm, indicating that she’d better focus rather than using her phone.Giselle understood this and quickly pushed her phone back into the purse
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 45 His Trust In Her.
“Mr. Heinrich.” Emerald appeared in front of Ezra and Giselle’s table out of nowhere.Her sudden appearance broke Giselle out of her trans like state and she adjusted away from Ezra. Seeing this, the brunette’s lower lip curved into a frown.As Ezra turned to fix his gaze on the white haired lady in front, she shivered at the amount of hostility his gaze was giving off.Giselle on the other hand, felt something inside her tick, the moment she laid eyes on Emerald.It wasn’t disdain or anger, rather, it was something far from that.Fear.Giselle involuntarily shivered as she remembered the night back at Vincent’s party, to be precise, the time she had fallen into the swimming pool.At first, when Giselle had felt her body tip backwards, she tried fighting gravity, flaying her arms in an attempt to steady her balance, but obviously that was all in vain, and when freezing cold water rushed into her lungs, the brunette knew she had made the wrong choice of following Emerald out to ‘talk’
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 46 Tension Between The Two.
Giselle was surprised to see Gregory dressed in a formal outfit.Black long coat, brown turtle neck and a pair of tight work pants.His work clothes did him no justice, for his beauty almost rivaled that of Ezra’s.Almost, that was the key word. But in Giselle’s eyes, Ezra looked better, no matter what he wore, on second thought, Ezra looked better in anyone’s eyes no matter what he wore.Emerald turned her head around and upon seeing Gregory, a scowl etched onto her face.“Your father would not condone such an attitude, fix it at once.” Gregory demanded. The serious look on his face was far different than the usual always bubbly ex boss that Giselle knew.Ezra had a sour taste in his mouth upon the noirette’s arrival. His expectancy of Gregory attending this party had dropped drastically after he heard that the Fishers had gotten into some uninvited trouble.But yet, here he was. It was as if he were doing everything in his power to tick Ezra off.And it was working.Turning to the c

~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
One Night Stand With Mr. CEO Chapter 72 A Rather Chaotic Visit.
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
