There have been numerous trials for their love, but rather than breaking them apart, these challenges have made them stronger and more resilient. Despite unexpected events and difficult moments that brought them joy, sorrow, and fear, they always found a light in the darkness. Together, they conquered those dark periods and now embark on a new chapter in their lives.Adrienne felt a familiar embrace as Pedro hugged her again, even though they were running late for the baptism.Once Pedro recovered, his stamina increased to the point that Adrienne couldn't keep up with his desires in bed anymore. They cherished their intimate moments, sometimes extending them into the early morning hours. The billionaire seemed to have unlimited energy when it came to their passionate encounters."You're so insatiable! Look at what you did! We're late for the venue! You're really frustrating," Adrienne said playfully.Pedro chuckled. "It's just practice for when we have a second baby. We'll be ready."
The entire home was illuminated by bright lights, which gave the impression that it was grand from the outside. Observing Natalya Cadwell's home, Adrienne couldn't help but wonder why her boss wanted to trick the woman into believing he was not available for a relationship or even marriage.“It’s fantastic!” She exclaimed and he just nodded his head in agreement.“Her family is wealthy,” he explained.Although the house was built in a modern style, wooden accents could be observed here and there throughout the inside. The tall, half-rounded windows in Natalya's house contributed to the overall design of the house. "She's extremely well-off," she revealed."Her family is wealthier than mine," he said, feeling empathy for the woman, who he assumed had not seen many gorgeous homes in her life.Adrienne pouted her lips and responded, “I see.”“Would you like to live in a house like this?”“Of
Working with Pedro Lassiter had its advantage and disadvantage as well. The man himself was envied by his peers because of his super qualities and extremely good looks, and she was only human! She was not a robot without any feelings at all, although, she mastered hiding her true emotions whenever they were together. However, as they spent a lot of time together, she was bound to develop some unwanted feelings for someone like Pedro Lassiter. Actually, the man was supposedly off-limits because of their differences in the financial aspect, but her heart has a mind on its own."Do you have any free time after work?" Pedro inquired with his secretary after he had signed the contract. Last night's meeting with Natalya has been a success, thanks to his wonderful assistant.Due to the fact that she was recognizing Pedro's outstanding qualities as a guy when she returned to work, Adrienne regretted her decision yesterday. She tried her best to keep her feelings for Pedro Lass
The following day, Pedro was surprised to see his cousin waiting for him at the garage. He narrowed his eyes at Keith and asked him, "Are you on your way somewhere?"“Yes. I need to see Miss Mcbride today but she doesn’t have a phone,” Keith replied.“So what? Are you going to be a nuisance in the office?”“Nope. How about letting me work there temporarily?”“Are you fucking serious, Keith Lassiter?” Pedro asked because the man vowed to step on their grandfather’s building. “Is it because of Adrienne Mcbride? Are you smitten by her beauty?”“Yes,” Keith replied plainly.“Wow, this is great. Everyone has been bothering you about working side by side with me but you wouldn’t budge,” he reminded Keith about their usual banter during family gatherings.“Well, things happened and I have changed my mind,” he declared.&ld
Adrienne cursed like a sailor when she arrived home, and Jasmine immediately joined her in the living room. Before she could rant heavily, she stormed off toward the kitchen, to retrieve the leftover ice cream from yesterday. “I’m pissed!” Adrienne declared as soon as she started eating her ice cream.“Pissed? You said that everything's going to be alright!” Jasmine reminded Adrienne of their conversation before the woman left for Lassiter Shipping to work. “Don’t tell me that you got fired already,” Jasmine said unapologetically. “I’d rather be fired than work with him, Jasmine. He’s the most terrible person I had the misfortune to work with,” Adrienne badmouthed Pedro Lassiter to her friend. “Wait, why are you looking at me like that?”“There’s something more about the story, Adrienne. Is he married? Did his wife get jealous of you?” Jasmine inquired.“He doesn’t have a wife but Pedro Lassiter is the most impossible boss that I’ve worked with,” Adrienne repeated her statement e
The following day, Adrienne wasn’t surprised to see Keith Lassiter waiting for her. Pedro’s cousin has been a nuisance in her workplace. Then, her eyes transferred to the box he was holding. Then, she smiled at him because she had no choice. “I heard you love chicken,” Keith said. “Yeah, that’s right. I love chicken and beer,” she stated. “Shall we get some beers for lunch?” Keith asked. “It’s not allowed to drink during office hours, Keith.” She reminded Keith that the office wasn’t a place for drinking beers. “But we can just have it later,” she added when Keith frowned. “I love it!” Keith exclaimed, and then he ordered Pedro to get ready for lunch. The head office of Lassiter Shipping has a cafeteria on the ground floor and it was exclusive for the staff. “Just bring it to the cafeteria, Keith.” He ordered. “A cafeteria?” Keith asked. “Yes, and all employees eat their lunch at the cafete
Every time she walked into Pedro and Keith, Adrienne could feel the tension between them and she wondered what caused it. While it was true that Keith has been bothering her tremendously, it wouldn’t be enough to cause a rift between the cousins.“Good morning!” she greeted both of them when she entered the office.“You’re late!” Pedro bellowed.“It’s only two minutes, Pedro. Common, don’t be so harsh on him,” Keith defended Adrienne and it made his cousin more furious than ever. She had no idea what was wrong with him but since she joined the company, he has changed. He used to be sweet around her, but lately, she noticed that he was different.“A minute or two always matters for a businessman, Keith. And while we are it, is there any progress in your mission?” Pedro asked.“I still have a lot of time to complete it,” Keith assured Pedro.Pedro smirked at his cousin for being overconfident. “If you say so. Anyway, Adrienne and I will start working now. See you later at home,” he dism
Carmela Lassiter tapped her feet as she studied her reflection in the elevator. She’s maybe in her fifties but she refused to dress according to her age. She could still wear tight jeans or even short shorts and even a miniskirt!However, for today’s activities, she dolled herself with Hugo’s floral dress and paired the look with a black wedge. Then, she smiled sweetly as she exited the elevator and as always, she looked sophisticated and chic in her outfit. As she walked towards her son’s office, excitement rose within her chest. One of her friend’s daughters just returned from Europe and she’s excited to arrange his marriage to Natalya Caldwell.Slowly, she pushed the thick door to open it and she was surprised to see that it was empty! Where’s everyone? If Pedro was engaged with something outside the office, the secretary was supposed to stay to take in important calls on behalf of her son.She walked towards Pedro’s desk and sat on his huge swivel chair. She waited for a few secon
