One more kiss, Mr. CEO The results...
Chapter 84I stared at the bathroom mirror. A smiling face was staring back at me. My black hair fell on my face and I pushed the strands away. I felt a hand slide behind me and Elliot's face was in the mirror. He was smiling too. I wondered how long this would last. I wondered how long we would last. Forever? Weeks? A couple of months? Years, probably? And then what? We divorce? Break up?"Is something wrong?" He asked again. His forehead creased and I quickly shook my head. "Did I do anything wrong?" "No, Elliot." I whispered, "You didn't. I was just wondering." I didn't turn around to meet his eyes but I could see the way those blue eyes darken a bit. "About what?" He asked, his deep tone letting me know that he was concerned. "Tell me what you are worried about.""Nothing much. I'm asking myself questions. Questions like, how long we will last For how long, Elliot? I'm scared. I really am"He turned me around and when I finally met his eyes, the first thing I saw was a tear. He

Chapter 85"How are you doing?" I was the first to ask and he nodded toward the cellar. "What are you doing here?""I came to get some wine,, You?""Same." I grinned. "My friend invited me to her place."I asked about his job and told him more about my workplace. He said he wanted him, Bella, and I to hang out one day and I agreed. We talked for a few more minutes before Myra's call interrupted us. He kissed the back of my palm before he left and I waved him goodbye. I realized as I boarded a taxi that it's been a while since I called Bella. The last time we spoke, she complained about the new staff. She confessed her sadness about us leaving her there. Although we talked more about other things, I remembered she told me she was in the process of opening her own restaurant.I will call her once I'm back home, I decided.Ten minutes later, I got to Myra's house and waited for her to open the door. She nodded at me to walk inside before shutting the door. "You are late." She noted and

Chapter 86. The feeling of the bed easing beside me as well as the scuffles of the sheets woke me up as my eyes fluttered open slowly. I watched as Kathy stood up from the bed, stretched slowly, and began making her way out of the room before stopping to pick up her phone and check notifications. I yawned before sitting up and shaking my head to brush off the sleep in my eyes. It had been a peaceful night and I wasn't sure I'd ever slept so well and comfortably before, it was probably because of how excited I was. I allowed my eyes to trail over my environment. My dreams were coming true. I got up from the bed and did a little stretch as well, Kathy turned to look at me and gave me a warm smile. "Good morning," I mumbled and mirrored her smile. She walked in soon after with a long white towel wrapped around her body and then she walked out of the room. I dropped my phone and decided to go downstairs and prepare breakfast, I was bubbling with excitement as my mind ran over my pla

Chapter 87. I looked out the car window watching as buildings and people ran past in a blur, I took my time to appreciate the views. I'd never had that chance as I was always in a rush looking for how to get on the next bus and get to work on time. It fascinated me to be by the window of an expensive car, not bothered about what time I'd get to work. I had woken up extra early that morning even due to the eagerness to start a new day as a model with a brand. My perspective of things had changed over those past few days and I no longer felt miserable and poor. The intercom crackled and my driver's hoarse voice called out, "We've reached the office ma'am." I blinked quickly as I looked out my window again, I had been so lost in thought that I hadn't realized that the car had stopped moving. Soon after, the car door popped open and I saw the driver standing behind it, I gave him warm smile before picking up my purse and getting out of the car. As expected, my assistant stood in front
One more kiss, Mr. CEO Myra?
Chapter 88.A week passed and I was beginning to wonder how I'd been fooled to believe that being a model was all roses. As I stood in front of the mirror for the umpteenth time that day wanting more than anything to yank off the heels which were practically killing me, all I wanted to do was go home.It started with the diets and routines, at first it wasn't a problem to me because I'd always been one to keep in shape and watch what I ate, but as days passed the meals became bleaker and the workout routines made me want to rip my spine out.Then there was my trainer. Oh God, that woman! She was a perfectionist to the core and didn't believe in the concept of taking a break, if she could have her way she would've kept me in the office all week till I'd finally learned how to walk the way she wanted. I honestly didn't understand why she was so unsatisfied, each time I did my strut in front of the mirror I thought I looked wonderful but Maria thought much differently. Her hands clappe

Chapter 89.I slumped down beside Myra and pulled her into a warm embrace, she leaned against me and continued sobbing. "Hey, what's wrong Myra?" I asked softly. She continued to cry for a while before collecting herself and sitting up."I'm so confused Zora, I don't know what to do," She lamented in between sobs. I brushed her hair softly and spoke in a hushed whisper, "let's go inside and I'll fetch you a glass of water and you can tell me all about it okay?" She nodded and I led her inside.I ushered her to her sofa then walked into the kitchen and filled a glass cup with water before returning and handing it to her. "Here you go," I said softly she took it with both hands and I sat down beside her.Her hands were shaky and she struggled to steady them as she brought the cup to her lips and downed the whole glass, I took the cup from her and helped her place it down on the center table. "Are you ready to talk?" I asked quietly. She looked at me again before her eyes welled with te
One more kiss, Mr. CEO Staying at Elliot's...
Chapter 90. The air was filled with laughter and joy that morning, Kathy had just made a joke about her co-worker and I was bent over bawling in humor. "He did that?" I asked after finally collecting myself. She nodded as her face brightened up. "And after that, he went, 'oh sorry, wrong slide' and everyone just started laughing," she said before bursting out into a fit of laughter again. I picked up a set of clothes that lay beside my travel bag and placed them neatly inside the bag. It was time for my two weeks stay with Elliott and as much as I was very excited about it, I hated that I also had to go and give the media something to talk about or else they'd start asking questions. Those nosy pricks. Sometimes I wished to just be with him and not be bothered about anybody else but just us, and I sensed he wished the same. But there was just so much we could get and I was going to grasp it greedily. "I can't believe I'm going to have this place to myself for two weeks, without

Chapter 91.My night with Elliott went by faster than I wished and I was sad to go back but I knew I had to get back to work if I was going to keep everything in order.I walked into my office that morning and decided to stop at the expresso machine for a cup of coffee. I brewed a quick cup and leaned on the cupboard before closing my eyes and inhaling the musky scent of the coffee.I heaved a sigh of contentment before bringing the cul to my lips, this had been a ritual of mine for a couple of weeks and it helped me freshen up for a new day at the agency.I check my wristwatch as I wonder when Myra would be returning, she had told me that she would be coming back to work that day and I was eager to see her and gossip about my getaway with her.It wasn't as though I didn't get along with the rest of the models at the agency, I just felt free and more at ease with Myra. She was always so understanding and could relate to me a lot.I finished up my cup of coffee and walked toward the pr

EpilogueZora lost track of the fluorescent white bulbs that skipped past her as she lay on the stroller moving at a high speed. She had hoped that keeping count of them would be able to distract her from the pain that throbbed through her entire system. Her eyes were half shut and her throat hurt from screaming so much.She looked around her and studied the crowd of nurses that had gathered around her all pushing the stroller through the hallway of the hospital. She was pregnant, yes, but she knew she wasn’t that heavy so she couldn’t understand why there were so many people blocking her air.She inhaled loudly in a desperate attempt to take in all of the lavender and disinfectant-filled air into her lungs before letting it all out with a loud scream as a new surge of pain rippled through her. She wondered why it was taking them so long to get to the theatre.She reached for Kathy's palm which sat beside her pushing the stroller as well and she squeezed it tightly as the pain continu

Chapter 128.Aaron rolled my suitcase through the airport lounge as we went to check in, the queue wasn’t long so I was able to finish quickly and I dropped off my baggage and collected my boarding pass then he waited for me while we ran through passport control and security clearance and then I returned and we all headed to the waiting area.My flight announcement was called soon after and we all got up from our seats. “That’s our cue,” I said as I turned to Aaron and I could see he was biting back his pain. “Um, so take care you guys and be safe, oh and eat a lot of good food too…” he trailed off and pulled me into a tight hug immediately, I hugged him back and squeezed him gently.“Hey, it’s not even that long you don’t have to be a crybaby,” I teased. “I’m not crying,” he said, his voice cracking. We pulled out from the hug and then he hugged Kathy next.“What! That doesn’t make any sense,” my words flashed through my mind as I watched them. Kathy was already on the airline's we

Chapter 127.I could barely keep my legs straight as I looked at him and I was scared my knees would give in and I'd fall to the ground. I had gone to the wedding with all confidence hoping to say my mind with a straight face and walk out with explosions behind me like I was in some Tom Cruise movie.But as soon as I walked into that room I felt as though my backbone had split and I was leaning on a thin shard, if I wasn’t cautious I would crumble to the ground and it would be an absolute mess. But I knew better than that. I had already crumbled and there were no tears left to cry, but now that I had hit rock bottom I could only go up but I had to cut any strings holding me back for that to happen.And Elliott was a massive fucking chain.He was even more beautiful as he stood there in his black tuxedo and I couldn’t help the envy that crawled at the back of my neck. I would’ve given anything to be in Sharon’s place, but then again that’s not why I was there.I stood up straight as I

Chapter 126.I stood in front of the mirror with a small smile on my face as I dusted the bottom of my dress. Kathy stood propped at my door frame staring at me warily. I ignored her. I had made up my mind on what I was going to do and I was not interested in what anyone else had to say.If everyone was so bent on me moving on, then they should allow me to do it my way. “This is a crazy idea,” she blurted out, finding it hard to keep a cap on her thoughts any longer. “Kathy, we talked about this,” I said, my eyes still on the mirror.“I know we have but is there seriously no way to talk you out of this? I mean, everything about this is wrong,” she waived. I turned to her and rolled my eyes. “You promised you would respect my decision no matter what it was, saying it's wrong isn’t very respectful don’t you think,” I hissed. “Besides, I kept to my side of the deal. I’m going on the vacation aren’t I?” I added and she heaved a sigh as she rubbed her temples.She was worried and I unde

Chapter 125.I sat on the couch breathing in the coffee-filled air into my nostrils as I held the cup of freshly brewed coffee to my face. There was a calming effect coffee always seemed to have on me and I hated that I couldn’t drink it all the time. It wasn’t like there were any healthier alternatives.It was either that or alcohol.Aaron walked into the sitting room and sat beside me as I finally brought the mood to my lips and slurped loudly. I hummed inwardly as the bitter-sweet taste massaged my taste buds and the warmth reverberated through the walls of my mouth before sliding down my throat. I let out a satisfied breath as I closed my eyes. “Hey sis, can we talk?”Can’t I just have my damn coffee in peace?The past couple of days had been filled with countless pieces of advice and lectures, mostly on my little brother’s part. I knew he cared about me but I couldn’t understand why he was hell-bent on letting Elliott know about the baby and why he refused to understand why I jus

Chapter 124.I rounded up my chores for the day, dusting off surfaces and spraying air fresheners in the different rooms. I was just about to retire to my room and take a rest before heading for the shower when I heard a light tapping on my door. I froze for a moment as I wondered who it could be. Kathy and I hadn’t been getting visitors for a while so I wondered if it was a friend of Aarons.My chest began to beat harder as another possibility crossed my mind. Maybe Elliott had gotten tired of waiting for me to text back and had come to me himself. If that was the case then I was screwed. I wasn’t sure I would be able to successfully keep the truth about me having a baby from him if we got into a heated argument.I shrugged it off immediately, there was still tension in the media, and his marriage to Sharon was still being talked about everywhere. Elliott was a smart man, he wouldn’t risk coming to my place at such a time.Well, there was only one way to find out who was at the door.

Chapter 123.At this point in my life, I wasn’t sure I could handle another shocking news.It felt as though I was in a tragic slice-of-life drama and I was the main character. There was absolutely no other explanation as to why amid everything that was going on I stood at the hospital with results from a pregnancy test in my hands.And it read positive.I had gone to the hospital to get a prescription for nausea or fever at most but instead. I found out that there had been a living thing in me for two whole months. My mind flashed back to moments when I had felt dizziness and fatigue but I thought they were from work-related stress or at most the effect of mourning my father in an unhealthy manner for so long.Meanwhile, I was pregnant. I couldn’t even understand my emotions anymore as I stood frozen on a spot while the doctor explained the result with a wide smile on his face. Ordinarily, I would have been happy, no, I still should have been happy no matter the circumstance but the

Chapter 122.Time travel doesn’t exist. That statement felt like a hoax the following days after I met with Elliott. I felt as though I had been plunged right back into the past. A past I had struggled to crawl out from only a few months before, a past that left me devastated and locked up in my room was now replaying in the present.Only this time, there were no flowers or midnight texts, this time I was truly alone. I couldn’t see a future for myself anymore, part of me knew that there was still one for me but how on earth was I supposed to get there after all I’d been through?I’m only human and there’s only so much I could take so why on the earth was the world so unfair to me? Why was I being saddled with more weight than I could lift? What on earth had I ever done to be treated like this? Was it so wrong to fall in love?I missed the old me, strong, independent, self-willed, and determined, and whenever I thought about it I realized that the greatest mistake I had ever made was
