KATHERINEAfter a while, he finally looked up at me, flashing me his seductive smile which had me shifting uncomfortably on the couch. I just returned the gesture with a shy one. Why is he doing this to me?If only he knew how much his action is affecting me, the way I keep giggling deep inside like an excited kid.He stood up and walked towards me, looking so hot in his black shirt. And I couldn't stop myself from getting more excited with every step he took closer to me. My heart was already pounding loudly in my chest. Well, it wasn't my fault that the black shirt hugging his strong frame outlined those sexy muscles, making him hard to resist. Gosh, my boss is a sexy God!And right now, I can't help but feel jealous of that shirt, wishing to hug him that way and show him just how much I love him. I couldn't even look straight into his eyes, fearing that I might be compelled to reveal my true feelings for him. I had to force myself to focus my twitching lust-filled eyes on his fa
NARRATORKatherine couldn't contain her happiness as the time to get off work gradually approached.When the time finally came, she quickly gathered her stuff into her bag and bid the others goodbye as she fled the room, shocking her surprised colleagues. She headed for the garage where Rock picked her up. "Why do you look so surprised?" Rock asked, noticing the way Katherine kept staring bewilderedly at him. It was obvious that she had something in mind, but for unknown reasons, she preferred to keep quiet. But her curious gaze gave her out. "Why are you driving today?" Katherine couldn't help voicing her surprise. "Where is Otis?""He's probably busy with his family. What? You don't want me to drive you?" Rock chuckled, glancing briefly at her before focusing on the road. "It's not like that. Just that I have never seen you drive before," she replied with a shrug. "Just relax, Miss, and let this humble driver take you round the city.""I don't think humble is a word that could
"Why are you so concerned about who your husband gets together with? I can't believe you followed them to this place.""He didn't even see anyone to replace me apart from his secretary. How could he stoop so low? He's acting like a man without class." Rose grumbled, clearly irritated, as she glared at her husband's car that'd just zoomed out of Katherine's house with bitterness.She'd been keeping an eye on the two right from when they were at the restaurant to Katherine's house. And instead of getting anything to pin on the man, what she'd been getting was pure jealousy and regret."You don't have any right to judge the man, young lady; if you knew so well about class as you claim, you wouldn't have cheated on him with his PA in the first place. Rock himself is the definition of class, but you left it for nobody like his assistant. How dare you preach about class?" The woman beside Rose scolded her as she rolled her eyes in mockery of the hypocrite beside her."Nora Jones, I don't kn
Jason had made sure to lock his door properly while leaving for work in the morning, so who could have access to open it except his own mother?He sighed as he slowly turned to face the woman."Mrs. Miller," he whispered."Anybody hearing you call me this name would think that I'm a stranger to you." The woman smiled.She looked so beautiful in the peach-colored gown that adorned her tall, slender figure. Although she was already in her early fifties, she still looked young as elegance radiated off of her.However, no matter how beautiful she looked, Jason could still see the sadness in her eyes. No amount of make-up could disguise the truth, which was obvious to him. She was only hanging on in that marriage, and although she wanted to be rescued, she had no choice but to hold herself back as her punishment for mistreating her own children."Mom, what are you doing here?" Jason asked, taking a seat on the couch."Why do you look like you have seen a ghost? Can't I visit my own son
The word 'tread' carefully has been ringing a bell in Rock's head ever since he lazily crawled out of bed.How could he have the strength to get up when he'd been blessed with a wonderful dream?Yes, he'd dreamed about Katherine, his secretary.But when he thought of meeting her in reality, he didn't hesitate anymore, as he'd quickly bathed and left the house, not even bothering to have breakfast.Sighing deeply, Rock shook his head. His feelings for her are getting enormous, and it's scary.But what could he do? He couldn't just deny himself this euphoric feeling. In fact, the thought of her is like an intoxicating wine, and he didn't mind drinking this fine wine. She's slowly growing on him.Now, he could smile again.Rock shifted in his position beside the window with his hands in his trousers pocket, his deep, charming gray orbs looking so lost in thought as they stared down at the bustling city. A hint of a smile was tugging at the corners of his alluring lips. His dark hair was
As the time for lunch approached, Katherine found herself getting nervous and agitated, which was unlike her. Having lunch with her boss was like a dream come through, but instead of being excited, she was damped with a feeling of fear. Everything was happening so fast in an unexpected way, and it scared the hell out of her. This is like one in a million opportunity, but why was she hesitating? "Why do you look so worked up and gloomy? What is wrong?" Beth suddenly walked over to Katherine and asked as she noticed her abnormal behavior. 'Something is definitely wrong, not that you will ever know.' she mumbled under her breath before throwing the seemingly cheerful Lady a suspicious glance. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Beth asked, feeling like she'd done something wrong. "Why do you suddenly look so excited and happy? I thought you were unhappy and regretted coming to work here? You weren't this bubbly a few hours ago." Katherine felt that something was fishy as she fur
Katherine was practically screaming in her head as she kept thinking about what happened between her and Rock. It was as if she would explode from happiness and urgently needed to share this news with someone. Only one person came to mind. Unable to contain her excitement, she decided to text Hannah, who happened to be available at that moment, and the two headed for the restroom. "What happened?" Hannah asked the instant they were in the room.Katherine decided to check the cubicles to make sure that they were alone. After making sure that it was just the two of them, she finally felt at ease as she looked back at Hannah, who was burning with curiosity. "Promise me that you won't scream or make any loud noise, and your voice must remain hushed." Katherine said, making sure to keep her friend under control before spilling the gist."I promise," Hannah hurriedly agreed, obviously driven by the spirit of curiosity.Katherine looked around before moving closer to her friend, "We almos
The moment Rock landed at the airport, his straight face suddenly lit up with excitement. Otis couldn't help staring at his boss through the rear-view mirror, surprise on his face. He couldn't understand what was happening to his boss. Instead of appearing tired and drowsy after his long journey, he looked more excited and over the moon, which was unlike him. It was as if he couldn't wait to see someone. Unaware of the suspicious look on his driver's face, Rock slowly took out a box from his suit pocket, his eyes filled with affection and merry as he stared at the shining fancy-looking box. He slowly opened it, the smile on his handsome face widening as he raised a hand to touch the necklace with 'K' initial.He specifically got it for her, and he couldn't wait to give it to her. After staring admiringly at the necklace for a while, he finally put it back in his pocket before looking at Otis, who quickly looked away. "Step on it," he instructed."Yes sir," Ot
