STONE HEARTED C.E.O 145 Ties broken
A nurse tapped on my shoulder. I looked at her she was very lively and young. If she was looking after Dane I would be instantly jealous."Excuse me Mr Dane said he was not feeling good", said the nurse.I stood up immediately and looked at Jake worried. But he doesn't look worried he had a knowing smile on his face. I had no idea why he was acting like this."Let us go", I said to Jake."I don't think he wants to see me again. Excuse me may I know your name?", asked Jake to the pretty nurse. I wanted to roll my eyes."I'm January", she said with a smile."Why don't you join me? I don't want to be alone right now", he said."Sure", she said joining him without any hesitation. I had already gathered my things and left them. I was a little irritated at Jake but Dane was OK and he was always there when I needed him. But he had a life outside of me and Dane. I can't force him to follow us all the time. I didn't bother to knock and got inside but I found him relaxing and eating an apple.
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 146 The gambit
"I warned you that your queen is in trouble," he said with a chuckle. His hands moved on the board and cut off my queen easily with a weak pawn. "Oh no! I thought you were bluffing", I said unhappily. "You want it back?", he asked me. Was he serious? There is no way we can get back once we lost one."Are you serious? Won't it be too risky? With queen I may win", I asked him."I'm a businessman I love risks", he said leaning back. We were in my room playing aimless chess. I used to be a winner back when I used you play chess. But now I have some stiff competition it seems. My distraction when he opened a few buttons of his shirt cost me, my queen. But now I'm very much focused on the game. No more distractions. I had put my queen back and undid my last move. I was back on winning and I was about to make a critical move when he started to undo the rest of his buttons. My eyes refused to stay on the board no matter how much I willed. "What are you doing?", I asked him. "It is hot in

Life is so peaceful these days and beautiful. I wake up in his arms and go to sleep right beside him. He goes to his work religiously but clocks out at five unlike before. He makes time for me and we are happier than ever. His treatments had been going crazy. Ananya is here every day and they are kind of friends now. She is not easily shocked or blushed like before. I'm not insecure but still I join them most of the time. Well, you caught me there I join them because I'm incredibly jealous. But I also knew I have nothing to worry my husband thinks I'm fucking Beyonce.I watched his plate it is mostly greens now. He is not a fan of this meal but he is doing it for me. I was thankful for him. He will do anything for me. But I love him regardless of that."Do you want to go on a vacation?", he asked me."I'm already on vacation remember I quit my work", I said with a snicker."I'm sorry for that. It is my fault that you lost your job both times. I can give you back your job in my office

"Tell me what did you do to him?", I asked. I couldn't keep it with me anymore. I knew he was very angry because he misbehaved with me. But I had settled everything then and there. He was dragging this too much and I was getting wary. He should focus on getting better and not some absurd revenge plan."You don't have to know this", he said."Excuse me? This concerns me and I have a right to know", I told him. "Fine. I will tell you. I did a background check on him. He is a convicted rapist. You are lucky that you weren't one of his victims", he said. I shuddered at the thought. I had saved myself otherwise the same fate would have befallen me. I couldn't speak for some time because I was afraid of how close I had been to him. "What did you do?", I asked him in a small voice. "I gathered the woman who had run a case on him. They said they will file a case again because he had threatened them while he was out. They didn't have financial support earlier. I'm going to remedy it and pr

"You know how embarrassing this is?", I complained to him."What?", he asked me, cooly."Walking around with three people in tow. I had to visit Charlie with Janine and they had dated before. It was beyond awkward", I told him."I can imagine", he said."Ananya is here", announced Fathima.I shut my mouth. I didn't want her to hear all of it. I was beyond embarrassed already but I didn't want to add to that."How are you feeling now Mr Wellington?", she asked."The same as before", he said wryly."Good. let us start the sessions", she said.Today physiotherapy was more gruesome. She made her walk with the help of parallel poles. He was putting all the weight on his hands and his face was red with anger and annoyance. This is the part he hated the most in therapy sessions. He felt extremely useless he once said. The sweat dripped down his face. I saw Ananya note things on her notepad. I wonder what she was writing? I wanted to ask about improvements but so far nothing had happened that
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 150 The truth
We came home because Fathima was stable. I waited till I reached home to broach the subject. Herald helped Dane while getting in and out of the car. I couldn't help him because he was still too heavy for me. I was fuming when we entered the house. But he seemed to be impassive. I hate it when his face starts to get neutral. He is trying to hide the truth from me. This won't end up well.He went to the room. By room, I meant his. I knew by now that he wants to avoid me. He had stopped using his room for a long time and always prefer to be with me. But now he is choosing to stay inside cooped up all night so he can escape from me and my questions."Dane what is happening?", I asked him."You saw what happened", he said opening his laptop."I saw it but I know there is something that you are not telling me again", I said."It doesn't concern you", he said his voice clipped."Excuse me. It does concern me. Fathima almost died", I shouted."Nothing will happen to Fathima", he told me stres
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 151 Winning by losing
We had bought the food at home because he said he didn't want to take the risk of using anything once he came to know that the coffee was poisoned by someone. The cops suspect the maids but the security is also under their radar."Did they tell you anything?", I asked."No they haven't told me anything but I think I know what is going on", he said tapping on his laptop."Please tell me Dane", I said putting my hand on his shoulder."You won't like it", he said."Whatever it is I want to know. Don't hide things from me", I begged him."The poison was not meant for Fathima. It was meant for me", he said."What?", I asked him."The day of the party everyone had tea that Fathima prepared but the person who did it knew that I don't drink tea and she would make coffee for me separately." I didn't want to drink the coffee at that time. So I said no. I'm guessing she drank it because she doesn't throw away food or water unnecessarily", he said."Greg has issues with me, not you", I said in a

"Oh my God!", I said as it struck me that I could be now viral for not a good reason."Relax. Do you think I will do something that would hurt you?", he asked me."No", I replied my voice low."I deleted it just now", he said looking up from his laptop. I sighed in relief. He has a way to get my blood pressure up every day."I'm going to take a shower", I told him."Was that an invitation?", he asked me."No. I was just saying", I said with a faint blush."Too bad", he teased me. I gave him a small smile. He went back to his laptop.I knew he was busy. He was working hard since he is trying to balance work and home. He works from home since going to the office is becoming a challenge every day. I went to the bathroom and closed the door. I was about to remove the clothes when I felt that I wasn't alone. I turned around to find myself face-to-face with Greg. I was going to shout but he pushed the gun to my mouth."If you make a sound I will blow your brain", he hissed at me. I was shak
