Céline ate in silence.

John's recent killing was eating her up. It made her feel like a monster. She could have saved that poor woman and her baby, but she didn't. She could put an end to all of these.

But her heart was divided into two quarreling halves.

One, ached to bring justice to her innocent parents who were harshly taken from her at a very young age. What if she never found her good aunt Elizabeth to take care of her, what would have become of her?

Yet, the other half of her heart tugged at her conscience. She could bring John to the book and end everything. Save hundreds of pregnant women in the state.

But she didn't know what to do.<

  • Seducing the Billionaire Boss   What was wrong with him?

    To Damien's surprise he had the best sleep that night, despite all the drama that happened during the day. By the time he got home, it didn't take him thirty minutes to fall into a deep sleep. When his eyes opened again, it was way pass eight o'clock in the morning. It was a good thing he was the CEO, so he didn't have to worry about being queried for coming late. But he had this underlining urge to get to work since he knew Céline would be there, but of course he didn't want to admit Céline was the reason for his mood.He did his usual morning business and today, he took his time preparing breakfast for himself, unlike yesterday when he rushed to work and forgot to take his morning meal. His maid was on holiday, he had no one but himself to take good care of him.Maybe having a wife for a change would not be such a bad idea-As soon as the idea came, he shook his head wildly as if trying to shove it off his mind.

    Céline.She was wearing a baby blue chiffon shirt with a plain black pencil skirt. She held a pencil in one hand and a tray in the other. Her sea blue eyes melted the conviction in Damien's mind, completely.He couldn't resist this woman.She was so effortlessly beautiful and without doing anything, she caused a lot of things to happen in his body. The moment he saw her, his cock twitched as if acknowledging her presence.Thousands of Saturday nights at the strip club was not going to wipe the connection between them."Did you do all these?" Damien's voice sounded oddly like a stranger's voice, it was hoarse and heavy."The cleaning or the files?" She asked blushing."Both." Damien looked at her with admiration, he knew she was amazing but he didn't think she could be this useful as well."I have sorted out all the files. Most were actually just finalizing documents. I have made a summary of each of them and sent it to your mail, but I

  • Seducing the Billionaire Boss   Start the seduction

    Céline found herself so much immersed in her work. She forgot about seducing Damien. All the resolutions she made on her way to work, had gone down the drain the second she started sorting the files.She had denied herself the thrill of working in an office, surrounded by papers and the strong scent of coffee for too long.She really missed this.She missed having to clear out so many files in such a little time.She bit her lips as she pulled stray red strands of hair out of her face as she concentrated on her work. She was trying to finish up all the files today, so she could help Tiana search for the other files Damien had dumbed on her table. Damien was a couple of feet away from her but thoughts of seducing him was long gone from her head. She was lost inside her work.A short hesitant knock sounded on the office door breaking Céline from the world of papers to the real world. She reluctantly raised her head from the notes she had be

    She sexily bit her lower lip, taking her time before releasing it slowly, pretending to concentrating with work. She tapped her pencil on the paper lightly and then placed it in her mouth. She crossed her long legs at the knee, knowing fully well the movement would cause another turmoil in Damien."What are you doing?" Damien's voice was deep and masculine, husky and sexy, all at once. It almost drove Céline crazy."What?" She looked up from her laptop, pretending to not know what he was talking about. She was breathless.He stared hard at her, his brown eyes got clouded. A vein appeared on the side of his forehead and she could tell he was struggling to remain in control too."Nothing. Continue your work." He said, snapping his eyes away from her.He was fighting it. Good.Céline needed the challenge.She sat back into her seat and continued working. She could feel Damien's eyes on her, but she continued scanning the file in her arms

    Damien led her to his Lamborghini Sian parked right in from of the building for the corner reserved exclusively for the CEO. He opened the door for her and waited for her to settle into the comfortable seats, before he shut the door and went around to take his place at the driver's side.During the ride, he tried to keep his mind on the road and not on the sexy angel sitting with him in the enclosed compartment of his car. The moment he walked into his office and met every thing clean and arranged, he knew he made the right decision making Céline his personal assistant. The question that remained was if the decision was good for his mental and sexual health.He was losing his mind.When she worked, he couldn't keep his eyes off her. She was like a walking goddess just a few meters away from him and keeping his hands to himself was starting to become too laborious a task for him to continue doing.Céline was so innocent, yet so dangerous.

    Céline was too beautiful. He couldn't remember the numbers of time he had said it in his head ever since he met her but he knew they were a lot. She was indeed beautiful.Damien was utterly charmed by her every action and he knew he was starting to fall. But he pushed that feeling away, it was too soon to start feeling that way.He remained quiet, more for his own sanity than her embarrassment. They soon got to the restaurant and he maneuvered around, trying to find a good spot to park his car. When he was done, he stepped out of the car and went to open the door for Céline, she was still blushing, but she could look him in the eye again.The restaurant he chose for the lunch was one of his many outlets, but he hardly ever visited it. He had the restaurant made for couples, like his friend Charles, since he had no one special to bring he never came, until now.It didn't mean that Céline was someone special to him. Well- she was special.

    After Céline and Damien got back from their lunch, she tried to focus on her work and pay less attention to Damien, but each time, she failed.Her body couldn't deny it. She felt attracted to him in every possible way a woman could be attracted to a man. Yet she had to stay in control.He was on her mind every second of the rest of the day. She couldn't concentrate on the files she was working on anymore. She couldn't fix her mind on something else other than him.His sharp brown eyes. The stubble on his jaw seem to call her fingers to touch them. His full eyebrow, his well sculptured nose, his lips...they were all too much for Céline to resist.It was even worst that the person in question was in the

    Céline's phone dinged, notifying her of a message. She checked it and heart stopped."Céline, what is it?" Her aunt asked.Céline was unable to talk, she passed her phone over to her aunt to check for herself. Elizabeth took the phone and squinted over the device to check. She read the name but it didn't ring any bells."Abel? Do you know this person?" Elizabeth could not figure out what had gotten Céline so worked up over a simple name."Check again, aunt." Céline whispered as tears spilled from her eyes. She couldn't believe what was happening.Elizabeth furrowed her brows and checked the message again. "Is this message from John?"Céline only nodded, using her hands to muffle her cries. It seemed to her that her problems where never ending.Elizabeth checked the message again and gasped.

Lucas read from the file in his hands.They were in Damien's office going through reports they were able to get their hands on about Céline's caller."It says here, he was admitted for psychiatric care but vanished with no trace months ago." Damien said pacing the office.They were dealing with a psychopath here and it made the hairs at the back of Damien's neck stand erect. Céline must have been so scared, that was why she accepted to do it."Don't worry bro, we'll catch him. Brian has contacted the best hands in the police department.

    Céline was in deep thoughts. She would be a mother soon. She wouldn't want her child to think of her as the thief she was going to be after taking the money Damien had giving to her.Yes. He gifted it to her and that meant she could use it. Yet, her mind rejected the option. Where else could she find legit money to pay off John and within the hour; because John wasn't happy at all, making him wait would only get him riled up.She would just have to call that bank officer and make use of that money. But she would work hard and pay it back, somehow.Elizabeth returned shortly after Mrs Culhane and Damien had left the room. She brought a plate of baked rice and chicken for Céline with a fresh jug of water.

    The day after the conversation she had with Damien and even the weeks that followed, Céline remained in her room. She couldn't go to see her aunt as he had suggested. She had finally understood why he was acting coldly towards her. She had gotten the answers to all her questions.He knew.Damien somehow found out about her deal with John and just like she feared, he misunderstood her. He thought she was a gold-digger. A woman who only came after him for his money. A woman who had pretended to love him so she could get her hands on his wealth— and he was right.Whatever he was feeling or thinking about her was true. She was a gold-digger. A cheat, who deceived him. She was a woman without morals. She had seduced him to get his money.&nb

    "What do you mean by that?" Lucas asked, slowly moving to sit with Damien on the bed."I- I don't have any prove yet but I think she only married me for my money." Damien explained.Lucas stared up at Damien like he had grown a new pair of eyes. "You think?" He asked, laying emphasis on the last word with his eyes almost falling out of their sockets."All these..." Lucas said referring to Damien's marital situation."...you are doing is based on a fucking thought you have? Come on Damien, you are way smarter than this.

    Torturing Céline proved to be even harder for Damien than he had initially thought.He had underestimated his love for her. His body couldn't watch her cry. His heart broke whenever he caught a glimpse of the sadness in her eyes. He couldn't do it.He had called Sarah in so she could handle his meals and maybe a few other things because he feared Céline might poison him. He had to be careful her character was questionable even if he loved her, he didn't trust her.His love for her made it impossible for him to do the things he planned to do to her. He couldn't handle seeing her break down again. Even if he knew she was only faking it, his own heart couldn't take her pain. If he kept seeing her, it wouldn't be long before he ran to her begging for forgiven
