TWO FOR THE CEO MR PERFECT
CHAPTER 73It was when Lloyd got back to his car that he saw he had left his phone in the car. He saw Nancy had left him ten missed calls and a text to thank him for the breakfast and bath.“Progress,” He muttered to himself.Whoever wanted Nancy dead was still out there and as long as they were free, she would always be in danger. He thought about who would have been capable of such a thing and the first person that came to his mind was Allison but he quickly pushed it away.Sure, Allison was crazy and a borderline psychopath but she was harmless. Besides, what relationship did she even have with Chloe? The only other person that came to his mind and made sense was Harry Granger but would he really be that stupid? Lloyd already requested that he be questioned by the cops while Dominic, his PI and inspector Lincoln, figure out where the wire transfer came from.His phone rang again, jolting him out of his thoughts. It was Nancy and the first thing she said made him panic all over agai
TWO FOR THE CEO LUCAS’ TRUTH
CHAPTER 74“Red or Blue? Which color should I wear to the party tonight?” Angie asked Lucas who was sitting on her bed, while she was trying to pick an outfit for her friend’s birthday party that night.“What do you think?” Lucas asked back with a smirk on his face.“Blue. Of course it’s blue,” Angie replied with a sigh, putting the other dresses back in her closet. Blue was Lucas’ favorite color. She wanted to wear the red one but since he said blue, blue it was.Suddenly, they heard a knock on the living room door. “Expecting someone?” Lucas asked.“No….you?” “Here? Are you serious? Technically I’m not even supposed to be in the country and since when do I receive guests in your house? Go see who it is,” Lucas replied and he grunted, standing up from the bed to pour himself a drink as Angie left the room.The knock grew louder and harder, the longer she was taking to get it.“Who the hell is that animal? Do you want to breakdown the -” The rest of Angie’s words got stuck in her thr
TWO FOR THE CEO TROUBLE IN PARADISE
CHAPTER 75Lucas looked at Angie with a sad look on his face before leading her back to the bed. “It’s nothing for you to worry your head about. Just know that I need to do this for my family or things are going to get bad.”He couldn’t bring himself to give her the details. It was the biggest mistake he had ever made in his entire life and he only had one shot at redeeming it, but at what cost.Angie’s words continued to ring in his head. Wasn’t his family going to inherit all he was fighting for? But that was the problem. If he didn’t somehow get this thing over the line, there would be nothing left to inherit.“You’re scaring me Lu……what is it? What did you do?” Angie asked again, her fear coated with a deep sadness.She really loved Lucas. He was the only man who truly cared about her in her young adult life. Despite their age gap, his overbearing tendencies and sometimes narcissistic behavior, she loved him dearly and would do anything for him.“I said it’s nothing to worry about,
TWO FOR THE CEO BRING IT ON
CHAPTER 76“I know I’m pretty, but waking up to you staring at me like that is creepy,” Nancy said to Lloyd who had just been smiling to himself and admiring her in her sleep for over thirty minutes before she woke up.“No love, what’s creepy is the way you have so invaded my mind, that you are the only thing that I can think about,” Lloyd replied, flashing her a small smile.Nancy leaned in and kissed him. His soft and plump lips returned it with zest. The passion consumed them and they let it, enjoying the blend of each other’s taste.“Dad invited us to dinner,” Nancy said out of nowhere.Lloyd grimaced and Nancy already knew what his answer was going to be. She wasn’t still aware of Lucas’ true disposition but she knew Lloyd was still very mad at Lucas.“You guys have fun, I’m not going,” Lloyd said dismissively, turning away from her. They have had this conversation a million times and Lloyd seemed hell bent on not changing his mind about his father.Despite the fact that the recur
TWO FOR THE CEO BY YOUR SIDE
CHAPTER 77A few minutes after Lloyd and Lucas made their way to the study, Lloyd’s phone which he had left with Nancy at the table, started ringing. When Nancy saw it was Kyle, she picked it and the latter said he needed to speak to Lloyd urgently.She made her way to the study and was about to knock when she heard Lloyd slam the table with his fists. “You said you have a way to fix this. Let me hear it.”She put her ears to the door, wanting to learn more, perhaps it was the underlying factor of Lloyd’s hostility towards Lucas.When she heard Lucas still trying to make Lloyd marry Allison, it broke her heart deeply. She felt a pang of pain when Lucas mentioned that her boys wouldn’t inherit anything if Lloyd didn’t marry Allison. She thought he was perhaps cutting them from his will to force Lloyd’s hand.She didn’t know when tears started to drop from her eyes until she heard Lloyd claim them as his everything. She sobbed some more but it wasn’t out of sadness because a smile cross
TWO FOR THE CEO TATTOO GIRL
CHAPTER 78After dropping the boys off at school, Nancy made her way to the police station to meet up with Officer Lincoln and her attorney, barrister Corleone. The first hearing for her case against the Grangers was in a few days and since the Granger’s main point was that Nancy was the woman in the video, who entered Chloe’s room prior to her death, Nancy wanted to watch the video again to see if there was anything at all she could use to prove them wrong.Lloyd was supposed to be there with her but with the whole thing about the huge debt Lucas had put the company in, he couldn’t make it, so she had to go herself.Barrister Corleone was the number one criminal prosecutor in the country and he also happened to be a close friend of Lloyd’s. He was more than happy to take the case and he also dissuaded Lloyd from harming the assassin, as his testimony would be vital in putting Melanie Granger behind bars.When Nancy got to the police station, she was led to Lincoln’s office where Corl
TWO FOR THE CEO LOSING EVERYTHING
CHAPTER 79ONE WEEK LATER Lloyd had been working overtime trying to salvage what he could of his businesses that weren’t directly linked to their company. He had transferred most of his personal shares in other companies to either Kyle, Nancy or the twins but he knew deep down, that the only reason he easily got investors to partner with him was bacause of their family empire, which may likely crumble any minute from now.Today was the day for the company’s Biannual shareholders meeting. All seven major shareholders including Lloyd and Lucas were present. The executive directors of all the companies under them were also present with their assistants.Lucas had been trying to speak to Lloyd to no avail since that night and if it wasn’t for Lloyd’s plan, he would have totally skipped the meeting.Lucas was confident that Lloyd would not say anything about what he had revealed to him. He was smart enough to know that that would be the beginning of both the company’s and their personal d

CHAPTER 80A few days had passed, Lucas was yet to sign the divorce papers, still trying to find ways to cajole Veronica into staying with him. Veronica had moved out of the mansion, into an apartment she owned in Nancy’s estate, so she could be closer to the family.Lloyd wanted her to move into one of the spare bedrooms but they were just too small to accommodate her and her things.Lloyd had traveled overseas, all in a bid to salvage the situation with some of their foreign investors who had found out about the huge debt their company was in. Government officials were also breathing down their neck and everything just seemed like a royal mess but Lloyd was handling it all well, with Nancy by his side, giving him the necessary support he needed.Nancy awoke to the sound of her phone ringing. It had been ringing for a while and she had been too sleepy to pick it but the caller was relentless. Eventually she gave in and when she saw it was Lloyd, she had a little bit of motivation to

CHAPTER 106FIVE YEARS LATER“Stop it Harmony, give it back,” Kayden screamed as he chased after his sister who had taken his legos. Harmony giggled as she ran circles around their playroom and Kayden chased after her giggling as well.“Catch me if you can, catch me if you can,” Her little shrill voice filled the air.“Got you,” Richard grabbed her and Kayden pulled the lego out her hands, baring his tongue at her.“Not fair,” She folded her arms and frowned at him. “Richard helped you.”“Who wants hot chocolate?” Leo stepped into the room with four mugs of hot chocolate on a tray.The triplets chorused. “Me, me,me.”He handed them one each and took one for himself, before he sat in front of his gaming console and someone who looked exactly like him appeared on the other side of the screen.“Ready to get your ass kicked bro?” Lex asked. He was spending the weekend with his favorite uncle Kyle and his favorite aunt Emily. Actually, if you ask him, he would say he’s babysitting their th

CHAPTER 105It was 3am when Lloyd woke up a few weeks to Nancy’s due date. He heard her crying and he thought something was wrong.“Hey…...what’s the matter,” He asked softly, cupping her face. “I’m hungry,” Nancy replied, still crying.Ever since she entered her third trimester, her hormones have been acting up and had her all over the place. She cried over every little irritation but Lloyd understood perfectly. The books he read actually did a good job of preparing him for the journey. He found it amusing how almost everything he read about pregnant women seemed to be evident in his wife.“What do you want to eat, anything, I’ll have the chef make it for you,” He said, wiping her face and pecking her cheeks.Nancy pouted but she kept silent. Her cravings these days have become weird and absurd and this was one of those moments.“What is it? Tell me, what do my babies want?” Lloyd asked again, rubbing her stomach and peppering it with kisses.“Ice cream,” Nancy replied. Lloyd glanc

CHAPTER 104“Don’t put that there Kyle, bring it this way,” Emily was dishing out instructions left and right, organizing everything for Nancy’s baby shower and gender reveal party.Nancy was now in the middle of her third trimester and heavy. Her bump was really big because of the three she had in her.“I’m going to work you so hard later tonight for working me so hard like this,” Kyle replied, taking the ladder and pinning the ribbons up.The thing about Emily was that even if she hired an event planner to organize events, the creative ideas were exclusively hers and if she didn’t like something, she would change it.“I look forward to it,” She replied, pecking Kyle’s cheek and blushing.They were having the party at the backyard of their mansion. Everything was almost ready and a few guests were already arriving.“I’m telling you, he is not just president in name but in other departments, if you know what I mean,” Veronica said, winking at Nancy and Diana.Both ladies laughed at her

CHAPTER 103A week after Lloyd and Nancy returned from their trip, Lloyd had a final surprise for his family. He was moving them to a bigger house, a mansion he had been building since he reunited with Nancy.It was meant to be completed before their wedding but a few delays along the way happened so he had to wait a bit. It was the morning of the day he wanted to take them to the house and the family was having breakfast together. It was just Lloyd, Nancy and the twins.Thelma and Theo had returned back to Emerald Bay, Diana was at home but in her room, Emily was on an engagement honeymoon with Kyle In Dubai, according to her.“We’re moving to a new house soon,” Lloyd announced out of nowhere. He had not discussed it with Nancy before so she was shocked, the spoon of eggs she held to her mouth couldn’t go further than her lips.She dropped it back on her plate. “A new house?” She asked Lloyd, giving him a light scowl.“I like this house,” Leo said.“Is it a big house like our old man

CHAPTER 102“Here goes nothing,” Lloyd whispered, taking off her blindfold.It took some seconds for Nancy’s eyes to adjust but when they finally did, “Wow,” was the only word that escaped her mouth as she took in the breathtaking view of the city of Paris at night.It was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen, the lights and ambience were out of this world. She could see the famous Eiffel Tower in the distance, standing in all its glory and its marvelous light, and the atmosphere smelled of such delicious food that her stomach growled.Lloyd had brought her to the rooftop terrace of the hotel that had a 360 degree view of the city. It was called the Eiffel penthouse. They were both casually dressed but they still looked as sweet as ever. Lloyd wore loose white pants with a black shirt, he left the top three buttons open and his sleeve was rolled to his elbow. He wore black suede loafers on his feet. Nancy on the other hand wore a long white evening gown that could easily pass fo

CHAPTER 101“I’m going to miss you mama,” Leo said as he hugged his mother tightly.“Me too. I’m going to miss you,” Lex added, joining his brother in the hug.“We’re only going to be gone for three days, I’ll be back before you even know it,” Nancy replied as she hugged her boys back.It was the following day after the wedding, they were flying to Paris for their honeymoon. It was supposed to be a two week vacation but because of Nancy’s condition and not wanting to be away from her kids for too long, she had Lloyd cut it short.Their entire family had come to see them off at the presidential Villa. Kennedy had given them the presidential jet as private transport to Paris.“Don’t I get a I will miss you hug too?” Lloyd enquired, smiling at the boys.“We will miss you too daddy,” The boys ran and hugged him too.“Can’t we come with you?” Lex pouted and Nancy gave Lloyd an inquiring look but he shook his head. These three days were going to be for them and them alone.“This trip is for

CHAPTER 100“The first time we met wasn’t the first time I saw you. It was three months before then.” Lloyd was surprised and his jaws literally touched his feet. Nancy chuckled amidst her sobbing, seeing how shocked he looked.“As a young hustling girl who was just through with high school, with dreams to become a world class chef, I was baking and selling treats at a construction site not very far from our home to the local laborers when one day, Lloyd came to visit the site. He was the most handsome man I had ever seen and I immediately fell in love with him. I made sure to stick around till he left and then I got his card from one of the engineers.”“Here’s something I've never told anyone before,” Nancy chuckled slightly, remembering the lengths she went to, to secure Lloyd’s attention the first time.“I lied, gathered what savings I had then, left home and tracked him down to coral city. I spent over a month stalking this man, learning everything about him, knowing everything a

CHAPTER 99The venue for the wedding was a private garden within the high brow areas of the city. The garden was big enough to serve as the wedding venue and the reception area. Both settings were already beautifully arranged.Lloyd stood on the podium, under an arch that had pictures of his and Nancy’s favorite memories printed on it. They had a total of forty to fifty invited guests. The seating arrangement was set with about 20 seats on each side, leaving the aisle open with Lily petals all over it. The number of security personnel at the venue was almost twice as many as their guests. With the president openly attending the event, no chances were taken. There was no press present and the media crew hired to cover the wedding were the only people that weren’t friends or family aside from the security.The venue of the wedding had a pale pink and white decoration and almost everyone was seated and Lloyd was waiting for Nancy’s arrival. He was very nervous. His palms were sweaty, h
TWO FOR THE CEO BIG DAY
CHAPTER 98ONE MONTH LATER“I’m nervous, mom,” Lloyd said to Veronica as he adjusted his bow tie in front of the mirror. It was their big day. The day he would finally say I do and be married to the most beautiful, most amazing, sweetest, most wonderful woman in the world. The love of his life, the woman of his dreams, his heartthrob, his sweetheart, his amor.The events of the past month were still fresh in his mind. Nothing would ever take away the dread that he felt at almost losing his child, but he was grateful. Grateful that it was all behind them. They could finally look forward to the future and hopefully never have to keep looking over their shoulders for where the next trouble may come from.Kennedy, using his powers as president, convinced Lloyd not to try and press any charges. He had a much better way to make Allison and Marla pay. Their arrest was never documented. It never went into the books. In fact, in the eyes of the nation, they were still wanted for kidnapping the
