Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Fall in the pit
Jacob wasn't his usual enthusiastic self. There was a melancholic gloom settled on his face as he approached me.“Serenity. Today is not a good day.” He said as he played his with utility belt as usual which his pot belly never failed to purr after.I intertwine my hands behind me. “I am disheartened. The technical team just informed me that Max Brennet’s baby didn't make it.”“Sadly, it didn't. There's just something about these babies. It’ll be put to shame when its mother took in again and birth an even cuter baby.” He scoffed a chunk of spit out of his mouth.That was how optimistic Jacob was. Trust him to find the good even in the most dire circumstances. I tried to smile. “Oh, Jacob. How much does it cost to be you?” I stared straight in front of me but my eyes caught nothing actually.“It doesn't cost anything. All it takes is to hold healing in your heart and know it well. To exhale toxicity and make peace with what is and what isn't. You’ll find that things aren't as hard as
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Something wrong?
SHAWN DONNELLY~~He had messed around a lot. Had varieties of girls; slim, thick, black, white— name it.However, only a few had felt so close. Felt so good and right in such a way that he’d want to do it again. Serenity, despite her inexperience happened to fall in this category.What was even more appalling was how she was able to drive him crazy with pleasure when he was the one who had to do the most. He liked his girls wild and experienced. Serenity was none of those.Yet, he felt like the sex with her was the best he’s had so far. Moreover, he knew she was too uptight for romance but never thought that she’d be so tight below.Damn, she was a box of surprises. That made him want to fuck with her the more. To take her seriously—to bargain and see if she was the one he’d been waiting for. After all, she had a reputable job, she was smart, sexy, and beautiful. What more could he possibly be waiting for?Calista…A voice in his head whispered that to him. Yes, Calista was why he wa

“M—Mr. Donnelly.” Gina began, unease barely hard to miss, etched upon her face. “Your office, it was…” She suddenly decided that her toes were the only element worthy of her gaze.Shawn walked down to his office, ignoring Gina’s fret. She scurried after him immediately. Shawn didn't have the chills for Gina’s jitteries. If she was going to fill him in on what went wrong, she’d better do it already.If not, he’d rather go find out himself than wait and let Gina goof around. All the apprehension welled up inside of him, the door paid for it. He barged it open way too loudly, brows furrowed in anticipation of what was wrong with his office.His lids dropped and his eyes dimmed by the sight in front of him. His office, Gina had squealed like something was wrong with it. She’d made him fret for no reason at all.His office was in good shape. It was just as he’d met it every morning when he came back; sparkling clean and in orderliness.“Why have you chosen to be dramatic today, Gina?” Shaw
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Because he felt remorse
Gina's eyes probably widened as Shawn uttered his request. "Cancel all my plans for tomorrow," he'd said, his voice flat and devoid of its usual confident tone."But Mr. Donnelly," she stammered, obviously taken aback. “You have that crucial meeting with the investors from Silicon Valley..."He cut her off with a wave of his hand. Not that she’d see it anyway. "Adjourn it, Gina. Reschedule everything. I need tomorrow free."He knew it was out of the blue but Gina didn't know. She didn't know at all.Gina knew better than to argue. “As you wish, Mr. Donnelly. All your plans for tomorrow will be rescheduled.” “Thank you, Gina.” Shawn heaved into the phone and hung up.He spent the rest of the day in a state of restless meditation. His office where he had grown accustomed to felt suffocating. He considered calling Serenity.Her vibrant energy had become a light to his troubled soul, surprisingly. He never knew a woman whom he had barely known could stir something that had been in slumber
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO It's time
As Shawn tossed in bed, he resorted to calling Serenity. He just needed a reprieve. He might find it in Serenity. She had proved capable of that so far.He got up and dialed her line. He was redirected to the voicemail. It was her voice. “Hey, just drop your message. Prolly busy. Might call you back.”He smiled. Even her voicemail didn't escape her grimness. What woman could manage to be so cold?Something must have made her icy.He tried again and again but the voicemail was the only response that graced his ears. As much as he’d find it provoking that he couldn't reach her, he didn't stop because he’d still hear her voice through the voicemail.“I must be going mad.” He scoffed at himself, the phone still gripped close to his ears. “How on earth am I so happy about a silly voicemail? I don't even usually like them. Yet, this one…” He couldn't finish his external monologue.What had Serenity done to him? What witch potion had she used on him to get him this enchanted?He was never thi
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO MURDERERS!
CALISTA [SERENITY]~~I slammed on the brakes with my heart leaping into my throat as the car jolted. I gripped the steering wheel, my knuckles white, and my mind racing with a thousand possibilities of what just happened.Jacob's voice broke through the silence, "Serenity?" His voice was tight and laced with concern.I turned with widening eyes. The workers were already stepping out of the car. Through the windshield, I saw a woman running towards them. I immediately felt my heart pounding in my chest with every step she took.As the woman reached the car I could see her grief contorted in her face. I knew it then. I knew I had killed someone.She pointed a trembling finger at the front of the vehicle. "My baby! You killed my baby!" she cried at the highest pitch of her voice.It wasn't until my vision blurred that I realized that tears were beginning to sting my eyes. The thought of having struck a child sent a wave of nausea through me.“Ms. Fairchild," Alejandro’s voice came as he

Max Brennet's eyes widened in surprise as we entered his modest bungalow. His mouth formed an 'o' and he was speechless for a moment before a welcoming smile spread across his face.“What a pleasant surprise!” He clapped as he ushered us in. I stood behind the others, so he didn't see me initially. However, “Ms. Fairchild?!” He exclaimed, jaw slacking in disbelief when he eventually glimpsed me. "I wasn't expecting the boss herself to grace my humble home with her presence!”I smiled warmly at him. He needed all the positivity that he could get. “I came for one of my best team leaders!” I tried to force vitality into my tone.He ushered us inside, apologizing for the state of the house. “Please, forgive the mess.” He said as he hauled a pizza pack out of the way.The air was still filled with the lingering scent of disinfectant and baby powder. We followed him through a sparsely furnished living room, our footsteps making rhymeless musical sounds on the bare tiles.“Please, do have yo

I hurried to Alice. The sight of her waiting there, alone in the late-night darkness sent a pang of guilt through me. I shouldn't have kept her waiting, especially not in her condition. I should have returned her calls albeit, the busy day.I could not believe that I got too carried away.“Snugglebug!” her voice cut through the night air, edged with a love-laced annoyance. "Where have you been? I've been calling you for hours!"The guilt intensified. I should have called, at least to let her know I was alright. But the day's events had been emotionally draining, and the thought of explaining everything had felt insurmountable.“I’m so sorry, Alice. There was — a situation," I started, the words catching in my throat as Max's grief-stricken face flashed in my mind.Alice's eyes narrowed. "A situation?" she repeated, worry creeping in. “Take a deep breath and tell me what happened.”I touched Alice’s shoulder and turned her to the door. We had no business standing outside the house so l

Love, children of my own, peace of mind after everything that happened in the past...it was all a dream come true.After Ava, I had another child, a son who we named 'Donald', after Shawn's grandfather. We'd been living life together, exploring all the hurdles that came with being young parents. But yet, something still felt missing....On a warm spring morning, I ate some toast, skimming through my phone. Ava was in school, while Donald was sleeping soundly upstairs. Shawn had gone to work, leaving me, the unemployed housewife here.It's been two years and I still didn't know what career path to chase. I had been so comfortable all these while cause Shawn kept assuring me I didn't need to work, but I didn't want to work simply because I wanted to help with finances. I wanted to work for me. As I scrolled through my phone, an ad suddenly popped up, showing a video done by some kids to sprea
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Ava Donnelly
Seven months after our honeymoon, it was finally time. The due date was here.I was currently in Shawn's room, his maids surrounding me and trying to get me to breathe. I bit my lips, struggling to hold in a scream that was going to come out any minute now.Just then, Shawn burst into the room, rushing to my side in an instant. "Doctor Ryan is close now. Hang on babe." Shawn parted my hair slightly, looking into my eyes as if trying to get me to stay. To not slip away.I shook my head repeatedly, trying to pull myself together. But then, I felt a sharp pain inside me, and I couldn't hold it in anymore."Ahhhhh!" I screamed, holding– or rather, squeezing– Shawn's arm for support. A maid came to face me, holding my hands gently."Ma'am, look at me. Look at me." She tried desperately to get my attention. When I finally managed to look at her, she took in a deep breath and then breathed out. "Take in deep breaths. And exhale." I nodded vigorously, before following her words. Breathe in,

Warning: Mature content ahead!Shawn's eyes bulged, as he looked at my face and then at my belly, and finally at my face again. He covered his mouth, his eyes beaming with pure joy and excitement."You- you're pregnant?" He repeated, placing a palm on my belly. I nodded in reply, my face flushing from all the excitement. "It's almost around two months gone now. I went to do a test two days ago but wanted to surprise you." I admitted, my gaze diverting away from his eyes. I was afraid he would get mad at me for keeping it away, but his reaction completely took me off guard.He drew me in for a hug, making sounds that further showed his excitement. It was almost like he was squealing. "And surprised I am." He whispered into my ears. "But next time though, maybe keep me involved with the delivery, okay?"I ended up giggling, nodding in agreement. "It's a deal."We finally broke the hug, as I looked into Shawn's eyes again, seeing the love in them. He seemed like he'd gotten a few years
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Reunions And Big News
After Gabe was arrested, Shawn and I decided to give it another month before we had another wedding. With that time, we were able to make the right preparations, as well as apologize to all our friends and family about the drama at the last wedding. It was necessary after the... traumatizing things they witnessed thanks to Sage. Speaking of Sage, she was paid off by Shawn, who also placed a warrant on her to never be within a hundred meters radius of either me or him. ..The wedding venue was nowhere else than our hometown...the place where it all began. It would be held on a beach, and this time, we'd decided to invite all our old high school classmates.At a hotel, which was about a twenty-minute drive away from the beach, I was getting ready for my wedding, with help from Brielle, Alice, and my whole bridal train. I was anxious, fidgeting constantly as Alice helped me with my make-up."Snugglebug, could you just relax for one second?" Alice groaned In mock annoyance when I move
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO HOME
The next day, I and Shawn set out to find Gabe. Reaching his house, it was obvious that he'd escaped, probably after hearing Brielle's announcement on the radio.I low-key felt bad that our trio had lost a friend, but it was for the best. Gabe needed to be stopped and held accountable.With help from a hesitant Sage, we were eventually able to find Gabe at an airport, about to book a flight. But we'd brought some police officers along and were ready for him."Gabe!" I called his name when I spotted him trying to enter a queue. He turned to find me, and when our eyes eventually met, I felt my heart stop. This man, someone I'd seen as one of my only friends, had tried to ruin my life... all because he wanted to get me for himself.While I was lost in my thoughts, Shawn pointed at Gabe, recognizing his face from some pictures I showed him."That's him, officers." His tone seemed to carry a mix of amusement and irritation, giving off a chilly vibe. He definitely wanted to get back at Gab
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO VICTIM
After minutes of hugging, I and Shawn finally let go of each other. His warm smile met my gaze, but I could see that his eyes were a bit swollen, likely from crying.I felt guilty seeing that, knowing I'd been willing to abandon him forever because I didn't trust him. But yet, he was still just glad to see me."Where did you even run off to?" Shawn finally asked, squinting his eyebrows in worry. But before I could begin explaining, he spoke again. "You know what? Never mind that. What matters now is that you're okay and you're here, in my arms."I smiled wryly, gripping his shoulders, subconsciously caressing them. I noticed that they'd gotten leaner, and I instantly knew why."Hey, how come you haven't been eating for a whole week? All because I was ignoring your calls?" I couldn't help but frown at the thought that he had starved himself because I was missing. Shawn chuckled awkwardly but tried to shift the subject. "So, you admit to ignoring my calls?" He pulled me closer, sniffi
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO ALIVE
It has been exactly one week since the unexpected turn of events on what was supposed to be my wedding day. Everyone had been worried, but I wasn't in the mood to pick up any of their calls, only sending a few texts assuring Alice and my parents that I was okay. I felt awkward talking to Brielle now, especially after what Gabe tried to do a few days back. I didn't go to work, I rarely stepped outside except at night to get some basic needs... my daily routine had become a depressing bore of me spending long hours on the couch watching TV. My mind was slipping away, I could feel it. The feeling of hopelessness, the finding peace in solitude and isolation while also feeling like the world had turned its back on me. I felt alone.Today, I went through some of the stuff that I'd managed to smuggle out of Gran Gran's place. Most of it was stuff from my college days, but some was also stuff that reminded me of Shawn. Amongst those things, was a videotape, containing clips of special mo

SERENITY FAIRCHILD {CALISTA}~~Everything had been going just fine. I had prepared in the mansion for my big day, with help from Brielle and my other bridesmaids. I'd driven to the church compound, entered the church, and received a reception like a princess, and then stood in front of my love, Shawn, waiting to become his wife.Until she showed up...Hearing this 'Sage's' allegations, I wanted to defend Shawn, I wanted to cling desperately to the hope that it was all a lie. But this bitch came prepared. "Oh, honey, I have proof," Sage had said with a sly smile on her face, pulling out her phone.At that point, my heart had begun pounding in my chest. Nothing could beat video evidence. When the painful clip of my so-called fiancee and Sage having sex played on the church's LED screen, I couldn't take it anymore.I ran off the altar, ignoring Shawn's pleading voice and the pitiful gazes from the congregation on me. I felt my breath cease and my heart felt like I was suffocating. Bef
Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO Gone Missing
It all felt like a bad dream. Shawn watched as Sage got closer to the altar, a mocking look on her face. "So, this is Serenity Fairchild." She had her eyes on Serenity. "Or, should I say 'Calista Whitaker '?"Shawn clenched his fists, trying to quell the anger boiling inside him. He looked at Serenity, watching her eyebrows contort into a frown. She turned her gaze to him now, "Shawn, who's this?" Shawn felt his mouth quivering, as he struggled to come up with a perfect way to explain all this. However, Sage beat him to it."I must say, after spending that night with me, I was quite surprised that you didn't try to reach out." Sage feigned a dejected look. The woman deserved an Oscar.Shawn glanced to see Serenity's reaction and watched as her face turned pale. But then, she took in a deep breath, as she faced Sage with renewed confidence.“Excuse me, but who are you? And what do you mean you 'spent a night with Shawn'?” Her voice was oddly calm and calculative, but laced with an u
