Later that night, at Donovan Enterprise.

Charles checked the time on his wristwatch, it was 7:20 pm and he had a date at 8pm. He groaned, running his hand through his hair,annoyed. When his secretary walked in.

"You're still here", Charles said in a flat tone.

"Yes, I certainly can't leave you alone", Jack said with a stern expression.

"Yh, right", Charles nodded with a playful smile, one he gave to those who were close to him. "Grandpa would be happy to hear you are taking good care of me".

Jack rolled his eyes at his friend teasing, " he would be happier if you took good care of yourself".

"I am", Charles said nonchalantly. "That's why you are here to make sure I’m taking good care of myself", he added with a playful wink.

Jack rubbed his forehead with a defeated sign making Charles burst out laughing, he stared at Jack with a genuine smile.

He and Jack had a really long history together. Jack had been a

    Rose couldn't believe it, she was getting engaged to the Donovan heir, and will get married to him after 3 months. It sounded too good to be true, she couldn't help smiling. "But...if within 3 months I fall in love with another woman, I have every right to cancel the marriage, same goes for you". Rose stared speechless, she knew there was surely going to be a catch but she wasn't expecting that. "Here", Charles dropped a small velvet box in front of Rose. Rose opened the box revealing a diamond ring, "it's beautiful", she thought touching the diamond. "What are you waiting for?". Rose stared at him confused, "wasn't he going to put it on her". "Are you waiting for me to go down on one knee and propose to you?" Charles mocked. Rose swallowed the lump in her throat and wore the ring, she really wasn't expecting this at all, "so much for a gran

    Kate walked into Donovan's Enterprise, it wasn't yet working hours and the place was already buzzing with activities, the time was 7:45am. She decided to use the elevator as there were people in, easing her a little. The elevator stopped at the presidential floor. Kate stepped out taking in a deep breath. After what happened on Friday she wasn't sure how she would act infront of Charles, "will he act like nothing happened". "Well it doesn't matter", she told herself, she should concentrate on why she's really in City S and avoid any distraction. Charles would probably act like nothing happened anyway, he wasn't the type who associates his personal life with business and she should too. "Morning Stella", she greeted as she walked past the reception desk. Stella bowed in response, "Morning ma'am". Kate turned to her right facing Charles' office. "Morning Jack", she greeted, who was stepping

    "What are you doing Kate, get up", a voice screamed in her head but her body didn't move."Yh, what was she doing?"she asked herself, staring into his eyes. There was something about those black orbs, she felt attracted towards them."How can something so black look so beautiful? '' she wondered, staring intently into his eyes, they looked oddly familiar. There was no emotion evident in them, just a black pit of darkness, yet she couldn't help getting drawn to this darkness.The way he stares at her sends tingles down her spines and butterflies in her tummy, something she never experienced with Kyle."Why Charles?Why was she attracted to him? Kate wondered, her eyes searching his but all she saw was a black pit of nothing.Kate opened her mouth to speak but Charles beat her to it."I'm sorry", he apologized, "have been acting like shit today", he added with a chuckle.Kate thought his chuckle sounded weird like he was mocking himself, why?."Mind telling me what's wrong", Kate and th

    Kate had to agree the tour was nice, she was impressed with how organized the company is after having so many departments and the tech they were using was top notch.They were on the 15th floor, Kate watched Charles talking on the phone a few meters away from her.She wasn't sure of what she was doing or what they were doing but deep down she liked it. It's funny she felt comfortable and carefree with him though they had just met.It was just her first day and so much had happened, after what happened on Friday she knew things were going to change between them but she wasn't expecting getting more cozy with him."Andrew would not like it when he finds out", Kate signed, rubbing her forehead.

It was a red car but why did the red car look familiar?A certain image flashed in her head, “ it can't be", Kate denied in her head, slowly stepping forward to take

    “I know grandma but she doesn't look like a good person, I don't like her. You know what grandma, she looks like one of the wicked stepsisters in Cinderella”, Katie said laughing.Everyone stifled their laughs, Rose turned red in anger."You little...", Rose hissed about scolding Katie but Claire was quick to intervene."C'mon Katie, bedtime", Claire said, helping Katie out of her chair."But..", Katie tried protesting."No but dear, now apologize to the young lady", Claire coaxed.Katie turned to look at Rose hesitantly, "Sorry…”,she blew a raspberry and ran away."Don't mind Katie, she's just like that sometimes", Claire gave an apologetic look and walked out.Rose gave Claire a forced smile, "kids, how much she hated them", she thought. Why did everyone just hate her in the family? Charles' mum, the little girl, was sure even Charles' dad and elder sister disliked her but they didn't show it. She didn't care cause the Old Man liked her, her strongest backup."Thank you for joining

    "I'm claustrophobic, the elevator triggered it and caused me to have a panic attack", Kate confessed with a sign, she wasn't lying, after her accident she indeed became claustrophobic and avoided enclosed or small places. Charles wasn't satisfied with her answer, how could her phobia trigger a panic attack. "If Jack hadn't informed him in time...", Charles closed his eyes, not wanting to think about it. There was something she wasn't telling him, he decided to let it go for now."If you want to use the elevator you can ask me or Jack to go with you or Stella, ok"."Ok", Kate nodded smiling.

    Kate stared at Charles, lying weakly on his bed, looking pale. They were at Jade's resort at Charles' penthouse, as the latter had refused vehemently to go to the hospital, no matter how hard she tried to persuade him. Kate shook her head, “for someone ill, he knew how to put up a fight”. With Jack's help, they brought him to the penthouse, while the latter had left to get Charles' doctor. Kate walked over to sit by his side, taking his hand in hers. It was the first time she saw Charles weak and vulnerable. It made her scared. “Was he gonna be alright?” She thought, forcing back tears. The thought of Charles' condition getting worse made her sick to her stomach. “It was her fault”, Kate muttered, her head hung low, staring at their hands. “Don't be silly. I'm human, and I get sick too”. Kate raised her head to see Charles wide-eyed, “You're awake”. “I had to, cause it seemed someone thought I was dead already”, he groaned. Kate helped him sit up, she chuckled, sniffli

    “Rose doesn't have the connection to get the list of owners by Monday. It will take at least 5 business days before she gets them”, Kate explained. “And I'm guessing Rose found the earring on either Wednesday or the Thursday you had seen it. So we've still got time to execute our plan”. She turned to Catherine with an affirmative look. “Leave it all to me”. “Good”, Kate nodded. “Now get out of my car”. “Hey! No kiss goodbye”. Catherine crossed her arms, pouting. Kate gave her an are you serious look, arching her eyebrow. “C'mon I was just joking”, Catherine smiled sheepishly, getting out of the car, grabbing her handbag. Kate watched her walk into the building, a worried expression on her face. “Oh God please take care of Catherine”, she prayed. She trusted Catherine and her capabilities, but was scared of what Rose would do to her, if she got caught. Kate let out a sign, about making a U-turn to leave, when she heard a knock on her car window. “Grandpa”, she uttered surpri

    “Did you find out what you needed?” Jack asked his Boss, as Charles walked out of Rose's office. Charles shook his head disappointed, heading to the elevator, with Jack following closely behind. “Taylor mentioned Rose having something to do with her past, but Rose clearly had no idea who Taylor was. What was he missing?”. The elevator came to a stop at the reception floor, as the doors slid open revealing a familiar face, waiting outside. Charles stepped out of the elevator not breaking eye contact with the person. “Mr Donovan”. “Mr Bruce”. Charles eyed Kyle, who gave him a smug smile. “I see you came to visit your ‘fiancée’ ”, Kyle said, stressing on the last word, reminding Charles he was engaged. “No wonder Rose was in a bad mood when she had called a few minutes ago”. Charles' eyes turned dark, maintaining a calm expression. “Stay away from Taylor. She will be mine and just focus on making your fiancée happy before someone else does”, Kyle grinned, before turning to the

    “For you”. Charles handed her the plastic bag. “Thank you”, Kate nodded, collecting it. Charles wrapped his arm around Kate's waist, pulling her in for a kiss. “Make sure to take the medicine and eat afterwards”. “I will”, she nodded, blushing. “See you tomorrow darling”. Kate watched Charles walk down the stairs to a Ferrari Roma where Jack stood, before closing the door. She placed her hand on her chest, feeling the fast drumming of her heart, threatening to burst out of its cage. She checked the contents in the bag, a tint of pink appearing on her cheeks, taking small steps towards the kitchen. “Looks like someone has been shot by cupid's arrow”. Kate turned to Catherine, who sat on one of the kitchen islands, munching an apple - the second one, momentarily forgetting she was here too. “No I'm not”, Kate denied, vehemently. “Yh right”, Catherine grinned, making a heart sign with her hand. Kate rolled her eyes, placing the plastic bag on the kitchen counter

    Charles gently nudged Kate to lie down, without breaking their kiss, his upper body hovered above hers. He moved his mouth to her neck, sucking on it. He heard her whimper, causing his cock to jerk in his pants, straining against the zipper. Charles groaned before capturing her lips in his again. His hand went under the duvet, finding its way between her legs. He rubbed on her inner thighs. Kate moaned, clamping her thighs on his hand. She heard Charles chuckle, before forcing her legs open again, teasing her. She arched her back towards him, wanting his hand to go deeper. Charles couldn't help grinning, his mouth trailing kisses down her neck, as his hand went deeper, brushing the wetness soaking her underwear. She moaned underneath him, her toes curling in delight, digging her fingernails into his back. “She was wet for him”. “Charles”, Kate moaned breathlessly, moving her hand down his chest, stopping at the band of his pants, when she suddenly felt her hands pinned

    Kate watched Charles walk towards her, crouching to her level. “Better?” He asked, concerned, stroking her back gently. Kate nodded weakly in response. “She shouldn't have drank so much wine”, she hissed, rubbing her forehead, feeling a headache. “C'mon let's get you sober”, Charles spoke softly, a teasing smile on his face. Kate nodded, allowing Charles to pick her up bridal style out of the bathroom. She didn't have the energy to protest anyway. He placed her gently on the bed in a sitting manner, placing the duvet over her legs, then gave her a glass of water from the night stand. “Thank you”, Kate muttered, handing Charles the cup back. “What time is it?” she asked, her voice coming out as a whisper. “It's 11 in the morning”, Charles answered. “The next day already! ”, Kate thought, shocked. “Work!?”. Charles could already guess what she was thinking, seeing the expression on her face. “Focus on resting today. Come to work tomorrow, okay”. “And you? Aren't

    “Where are we going?” Kate mumbled, as they got into the elevator. Charles pressed the button to the underground parking lot where his car was parked. “Home”, He answered, sternly, as he watched Kate nod before nestling her head on his shoulder. The ride down was quiet, as none of them spoke. Until Kate started humming a tune while stroking the side of his neck. “Stop”, Charles groaned in a warning tone. Her humming didn't annoy him. It was her touch leaving a trail of fire on his skin, making him more hard than he already was."He needed to get her home fast". The elevator came to a stop. He walked over to his car. Opening the front passenger door, placing Kate in carefully. “Lie down”, he instructed, strapping her in before walking over to the driver's seat, buckling his own seat belt. “I missed you….”, he heard her say. Charles halted what he was doing, turning to Kate, her big sapphire eyes already staring at him. “I missed you”, Kate repeated, longing in her tone. “I w

    At Jade resort, “Don't tell me you're still annoyed at my cousin because of what he did”, Gracie said, laughing. Kate rolled her eyes at Gracie, crossing her arms over her chest. Charles had canceled her date with Kyle for the day, not allowing her to speak before dragging her away. Yeah! she didn't like going on dates with Kyle, but she certainly didn't need Charles' help to deal with Kyle either. “D*ckhead”, she muttered, as eyes searched for him in the room and they found him, sitting lazily, away from everyone else, a tumbler in his hand, casually swirling it. The sleeves of his shirt rolled to his elbow, showing off his muscular arms, his hair slightly disheveled with some strands at the side. His chest hair could be seen due to the first three buttons of his shirt left undone. He had a carefree aura around him, sexy and yet powerful. “My cousin is hot, isn't he? A fine species of men”, Gracie whispered in Kate's ear. Kate turned red in embarrassment, caught red-handed by
