Kate rushed over to him worriedly, about to grab his bleeding hands which had shreds of glass in it. He held out his other hand stopping her.

She stared at him confused, turning to an angered expression, was he really going to act stubborn now. She stared at his injured hand again, blood dripping onto the tiles.

“Don't be stubborn Charles, you are badly injured”, she argued. “You don't want to go to the hospital, no problem, at least let me take a look at it”, she coaxed.

She groaned frustratedly, seeing as Charles wasn't listening to her. “What was wrong with him, didn't he feel hurt”.

Charles raised his head to stare at her, an unreadable expression on his face, his eyes cold and lifeless. Kate felt chills run down her spine at his stare, noticing something was amiss about him.

“Charles”, she called out softly. “You're hurt”, she continued, trying to touch him again but he stepped back, leaving her hand floating in mid-air.

Kate felt a pang in her chest at Charles' ac

  • Reborn Of The Billionaire's Princess    Chapter 105: The New CFO

    At FastTech Limited, Everyone was seated around a conference table. Old Man Andino sat at the head chair, on his left was his secretary when he was the CEO and beside the man was Nathaniel, while on his right was an empty seat, and beside the seat was Rose, as the shareholders and the heads of departments filled the rest of the seats. It was the seasonal meeting held mid month of the start of a new season between the shareholders, and heads of department. Everyone was present, except one person, the seat beside Rose, at Old Man Andino right was empty. Rose wondered who the person was for the Old Man to wait patiently and make every other person wait as well. She had heard the person was going to be the new CFO, and was once an employer, and someone close to the Old Man – courtesy of her gossiping workers. 30 mins later and still no sign of their newcomer. Rose glanced at the wall clock, an annoyed expression on her face. It was time for the meeting to start but the Old Man wasn't

    Rose eyed Catherine, sitting across from her, making the other weary. “Is there a problem ma?” Catherine asked, seeing as Rose hadn't said a word since she called for her. Rose kept staring at her, her gaze particularly on the two diamond cluster earrings which hung on Catherine's ear. “Why did she lie?” Was the thought on Rose's mind. “Or was she telling the truth?”. “After going through the CCTV footage for the past 2 hours - majorly skipping some parts - she found something interesting”. “Catherine had been to her office last week, when she went out, it was the day Kyle had walked in on her”. She had watched Catherine drop the file, accidentally knocking the stapler over, then bending down to pick it, nothing strange there, except it took her 5 minutes to pick up a stapler - a whole 5 minutes. She didn't miss the way Catherine stood rigid after she stood up, with the stapler in her hand, like someone caught doing something wrong, when Kyle had entered her office. “

    At Charles penthouse Charles stared at his injured palm now wrapped in a bandage. Fred had come over to help clean it up. Running his hand through his hair. Had he read the signs wrongly? Taylor didn't love him like he thought . “He would have accepted it, if it was any other guy but it had to be Kyle”. The world had to be playing some cruel game with him. First Kate and now Taylor. His phone rang, disrupting his thoughts. He eagerly took his phone, a frown appearing on his face seeing it wasn't her – Taylor – placing his phone at his ear. “What now?” He hissed. “Woah dude! Woke up on the wrong side of the bed I see” the other person chuckled. “I don't have all day Vincy”, he hissed again. He knew he was behaving like an ass, a big jerk, but that's what happens when Taylor makes him mad. “Just wanted to remind you, I'm coming home next week, permanently “, Vincent said, ignoring his friend's cocky attitude. “And!?”. “You're picking me up from the airport. Damn! du

    THE NEXT DAY. Kate rolled her eyes at the person on the other end of the phone. Just when she thought yesterday's gossip had ended. Andrew just had to call her to talk about it, on her way to work!. “What are you up to now Kate?” Andrew groaned, questioning, clearly displeased about the post. “Getting back with your ex, really!?”. “Technically Taylor is the one dating Kyle not Kate”, Kate corrected, stopping her car at a red light. She had connected her earbuds to her phone. After her accident she was weary of connecting her phone to her car, and was cautious of the information she stored too, to prevent a virus getting into it. Prevention was better than cure afterall. “I know Kate, still!” Andrew argued. Kate tapped her finger on the steering wheel, waiting for the light to turn green. “I'm just getting my revenge on Kyle, Andrew, nothing to worry about”. The light turned green, she continued driving. “By dating him Kate, is that really necessary”, he tsked. “If

    “Was there a reason why you jumped on me when you walked in, Miss Cosgrove?” Charles asked, trying to sound indifferent. Kate was focused on her entwined fingers; she didn't notice the hopeful look in his eyes. “It's nothing I was just glad you were__ I meant your hand was alright”, Kate stammered, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “Oh I see”, Charles frowned disappointedly, quickly replacing it with a stoic expression. “I'll be on my way then Miss Cosgrove”, he added, walking past her to the door. “Wait!” Kate exclaimed, stopping him in his tracks. “Where are you going, you just got here?” she asked, surprised. “He was leaving already or was he just ignoring her”. She frowned at the thought. “I have a multimillionaire business to take care of. I can't sit in my office all the time”, Charles answered with a cocky grin. “Is there a reason you don't want me to go?”. “No, it's just__”, Kate shuttered, suddenly feeling nervous. “What did Gracie say, sort out your feelings,

    Charles glanced at his wristwatch, his back to his car, tapping his foot impatiently on the concrete ground, with his arms crossed. “His flight had landed 15 mins ago, why wasn't he here yet”, he grumbled, staring at the exit door. Glancing at his watch again, it was 1:00 pm now. He had thought about going to the office today but it seemed like he wouldn't make it again. “Sigh!”. He hadn't been able to go to the office because he was preparing for the task his grandfather had given him – he needed to be ready to face them. Replaying his conversation with his grandpa. “You can stop pursuing Miss Cosgrove. I hear she's dating someone now”. And that was how his grandpa decided to start their conversation. “Son of the Bruce family, Kyle. I think he's a nice guy”, he added. Charles worked his jaw, just when he had forgotten about it – not like he did – his grandpa just had to remind him. “Grandpa, you didn't call me here to tell me this, did you?” He asked, an annoy

    “How did he become friends with these two idiots?” Charles wondered, as he watched his two best friends talk about the recent happenings in his life, in his presence!. Alexander did the talking while Vincent listened with rapt attention. “Are you guys done?” Charles asked, his forehead creased in annoyance. They both turned to stare at him, a teasing grin forming on their faces. “I always knew we were going to end up becoming family, but I didn't think you'd have to marry Rose”, Vincent said, displeasure laced in his tone. “Katie’s best friend... It was meant to be her”, he murmured, not saying the last part out loud. “But you love Taylor don't you, why not marry her instead”, he said. “I know we won't be family anymore but I'll always support your choice”, he added, giving Charles a supportive nod. Charles shook his head at Vincy's words. “Too bad he won't be able to do that anymore”, Alexander spoke with a sigh. “Why not?” Vincent asked, confused. “Charles is

    A NEW DAY. Kate drove her car into the parking lot of Donovan Car Enterprise. Glancing at Charles' spot, no sign of his black Mercedes. Another day and Charles hadn't arrived. Checking the time on her wristwatch, 7:45. "There was still time", she sighed. “He could just be running late”, she told herself. Letting out a frustrated groan, “Why did she even care!?”. Kate walked to the entrance, about entering the building, when an old man walked up to her. “Miss Cosgrove”, the elderly man said. “Yes”, Kate nodded, raising her eyebrows in a polite manner. “How may I help you?”. “Ryn…Old Man Donovan would like to see you”. “See me”, Kate asked, an unconvinced look on her face. “Why would Charles' grandpa want to see her?”. “Where is he?”. “There”, the man pointed to a black SUV not far from them. Kate gave him a weary look. “She didn't trust him”. “He wants to speak to you, it's important”, he added, a stern expression on his face, not bothering to convince her.

    “Edward please tell whoever it is I don't want to see them”, Charles groaned tiredly. He hadn't slept well in the past few days. Pouring himself a glass of beer, taking the entire content in a gulp. He needed alcohol to deal with Taylor, when he got to the office. “It's me”. Charles turned rigid at the voice. “No it couldn't be. Taylor here at his house, he must be hallucinating”. Shaking his head, “maybe he needed to stop taking alcohol instead, it was starting to mess with his head too, just like her”. As he dropped the tumbler, making his way to the staircase, when he felt someone hug him from behind, making him freeze in his steps. The smell of milk jasmine body wash wafted into his nose. “F*CK! He wasn't hallucinating. She was here, Taylor was really here, hugging him”. He felt something wet on his back. “Was she crying? Did someone hurt her?” His eyes darkening at the thought. “I'm never leaving you again”, he heard her sob, stopping his beast from going bers

    “What about carrots?”. “Hurgh?” Kate stared at her confused. “The cake “, Tiffany answered, pointing to the carrot cake in front of them. “Nah I don't like carrot cake”, she answered, shaking her head, a disgusted look on her face. “Isn't the cake for someone else?” Tiffany asked, an amused look on her face. “Yes it is, but I'm the one paying for it”, Kate shrugged in response. “Oh I see, why not pick your favourite then, since you're the one paying for it”, Tiffany suggested. Kate creased her forehead in thought. “It had crossed her mind but what if Charles didn't like her choice? Well it was better than buying a random cake. If Charles won't eat, she will”. “One velvet cake please”, she said to the bakery clerk's. The Bakery clerk's nodded, taking out the cake. “Would you like to write anything on it?” She asked. Kate speculated for a while before answering, “I’m sorry ice king”. "Ice King!", The Bakery clerk's mouth hung open, stunned, before snapping shut a

    “Charles was going to go against his grandpa for her”. Was he mad? Seemed like it. "And I know you like him too”, Ryn muttered, placing his hand over hers, squeezing it in a supportive manner. “I do!?” Kate uttered, her question coming out as a statement, a blush appearing on her cheek unbeknownst to her, as she stared at their hands. She could feel the fast beating of her heart. “Charles liked her. She liked Charles”. Ryn squeezed her hand one last time, before placing his hand back at his side. “Charles could act tough all he wanted, but he's hurting. He needs you dear, only you can make him feel better”, he said. “How did the Old Man know for sure she could make him feel better, all she had done to Charles was hurt him”, she thought sadly, feeling ashamed. “I'm not meant to tell you this but you aren't the first person Charles had fallen in love with, and she loved him back. We were already planning their wedding, even though they were still in highschool then”. Kate
