The CEO'S Forbidden Secret CH 12
LAURA'S POVAfter my encounter with Bryan Finch, I decided to be more careful. After all, it's not every day you get your boss to do something so private to you at the back of his car. I rubbed my face as I blushed red at the thought of it. Bryan Finch is the naughtiest man alive. What was I even thinking?I knew we were going back to the States today, and I might not get to see him until it was Monday.Deep down, I was very happy about that. In fact, I wanted things to remain professional between us. It never ends well when two people decide to mix business with pleasure. Tying my hair in a neat pony, I checked my outfit in the mirror and sighed softly. I walked towards the bed to make sure all my things were in order.When I got downstairs, Mr. Finch was standing close to the exit door while making a phone call. He noticed me approaching, and he hung up the call."Good morning, Mr. Finch," I greeted him, and he smiled."I see we have gone back to being professional with each other

LAURA'S POVI did not get a word from Mr. Finch throughout the weekend, which was quite disappointing. But then, I was happy about it because the man always finds a way to disturb my weekend with his long line of work to keep me busy. After our encounter, he hasn't texted or called to give me a workload. I used to feel like the man was an enemy of my peace of mind. That night, after dinner, Kora left for her place because her boyfriend was around, and she didn't want him to sleep alone. The weekend was spent doing house chores, shopping for groceries, and watching new episodes of my favourite TV shows.I hissed in frustration. How I hate Monday mornings. Aside from the fact that I'm not a morning person, it provokes the living daylights out of me that I have to wake up to another hectic day at the office. After changing into something decent and classy, I made my way out of my apartment with my bag in hand. "Good morning, Miss Laura," my neighbour greeted me, and I smiled in his di

BRYAN'S POVLaura was pissed off when she left my office, it was quite obvious from the way she shut the door angrily on her way out.After everything, I just needed relief from some stress. Cressida is someone I've been consistent with ever since I lost Mia.Yes, I had a few other mistresses because getting laid was my way of escaping pain, something I intend to do with Laura.The girl was already pissing me off with her attitude, even if I like a good challenge, I wasn't the type to chase a woman for long. Getting my previous assistants to bed wasn't hard, but Laura was making things tough for me. My mind went back to our encounter during the trip, and I sighed. Rubbing my face, I stared at my phone, which rang on the table. The caller ID showed it was my best friend Trenton."Hey," I said immediately I picked up the call."The contract is ready, that's if you still want it," he stated, and I smirked."Let's meet up, later in the day," I stated, and he hung up the call.It was obvi

LAURA'S POVAfter another hectic day at work, I just wanted to avoid anything that had to do with Mr. Finch and focus on calming my nerves. I dropped my bag on the table and headed to the bathroom to freshen up and change into something more decent and comfortable for the night. As I pulled my hair into a messy bun, I heard my phone ringing. Sighing softly, I walked towards the bed, picked it up, and stared at the caller ID calmly. The incoming call was from my sister, Cindy. I've spent the biggest part of my life living like I don't even have a family. It's not like they're my real family anyway. I was adopted from an orphanage home, and after my foster dad died, his wife, my foster mom, took it upon herself to make life a living hell for me.I don't know who my real parents are, and I've been all by myself ever since. "Cindy," I said immediately I picked up the call, and I heard her sigh on the other end."Laura, how are you? Mom has been trying to reach you for weeks. It's beginn

BRYAN'S POVI know Laura was not going to give in to my advances just like that, but what I was not expecting was to walk into my office and not catch a glimpse of her. I asked the lady at the front desk, and she confirmed Laura's absence at the office, which further provoked me.Letting it slide, I went about my daily business until we closed for the day. "Did you get what I asked you for?" I asked Denver, as I walked out of my office with my blazer in hand. "Yes sir," he answered, and he handed me the note."Are you sure you don't want me to drive you there, boss?" He asked with concern."You know I can handle myself just fine," I responded, and he nodded.As I got into my car, my phone rang, and I groaned frustratedly. Immediately, I saw the caller ID. I stared at it for a while before picking it up ."Good evening, mama," I said with a soft smile playing on my lips as I leaned into the chair properly."Bryan, you have refused to call your mother ever since you returned to the S

LAURA'S POV'What does he want from me?' I wondered, and as I walked back to the sitting room and he was still there, I stared at him, and he smiled."What do you want from me? Just go straight to the point, SIR ..." I said, stressing the last part, when I saw the lust in his eyes.I hate it when men stare at me like this, but there was something about the way he stared at me that made me nervous. The annoying papers he sent me were still on the table, and that only made my mood sour."I want you," he acknowledged, and my eyes widened."What!" I yelled in shock.'What does he mean by that? Did he take me for some cheap whore or what?' I wondered as I glared daggers at him.After the stupid stunts he has been pulling and his little secret, that makes him more mysterious. What makes him think I will agree to his madness?"You can't want me, sir." I fumed in anger."Name your price," he said arrogantly, and my blood rushed with rage."How dare you, Mr. Finch?""You can't walk into my hou

LAURA'S POVWe got to the place, and it was a luxurious mansion, unlike his penthouse the other night.The security was top-notch; I mean, whoever tries to bypass the security would end up losing his or her life first.As we strolled into the house, I saw Mr. Finch and two good looking men having a conversation together.The guy who was sitting opposite Mr. Finch was smoking. Not like I'm trying to judge, but c'mon, isn't it too early?I froze as the familiar hazel eyes scanned me from head to toe.I checked my outfit to see if I dressed provocatively, but I didn't. In fact, I made sure, I did not expose any part of my body to his lustful eyes.I was clad in a red dress that hugged my figure. It was a handless gown, and I had a scarf around my neck.He stared at me amusingly, and I rolled my eyes. "Good morning, Laura. As I said earlier, we will be having a meeting with my trusted attorney. This is Mr. Trenton, my lawyer, who happens to be a close friend." He introduced the handsome m

BRYAN'S POV"Send me to jail then," she insisted. I'm not going to lie, I was shocked."Miss Laura, you need to calm down first. We can conclude that no one needs to go to jail," Trenton suggested, and she sighed."It's pretty obvious your friend wouldn't take a no for an answer, so I rather stay in prison." She declared firmly, not giving in and I chuckled."I'm sorry for his attitude Miss Laura. We can do something about the situation," Trenton tried to persuade her, but she was not ready to back down."Sex six times in a week is just absurd, and I agree with you, Miss Laura. I think we should reduce it," Trenton suggested."I'm not sleeping with him, that's it," she declared, not accepting otherwise, as if the thought of sleeping with me scared her away.Girls would do anything to be in my arms, I've been the one saying no, but here's this hazel-eyed beauty saying no to me, and meaning every single word."Fine, since you do not want to be intimate with me it's okay. I won't force y

LAURA'S POV We returned to the city after that weekend, and the whole family was happy about the news, especially his mom and friends. The plans for our wedding went on with full force. Bryan and I wanted something simple, by the sea with family and friends, that was it. A few days before my wedding, I noticed I was seriously sick. I couldn't eat anything because the moment it got in my stomach, I threw it all up. I couldn't even leave the bed. Bryan was out of the country with Oscar for business otherwise, he would be worried sick. "Babe, get off the bed, we are supposed to go cake tasting today," Kora complained. "I can't... I feel so weak... my boobs ache a bit, they feel so full..." I murmured weakly. "What?" Julie inquired, and I rubbed my forehead. "Have you eaten something? Besides, you're burning up pretty badly." "I throw up the minute it gets in my stomach," I replied, and she gasped. "When was the last time you saw your periods?" she probed, and I stared at her. "I

BRYAN'S POV It's been two weeks since the incident with Mikoy and the rest. Laura hasn't been herself, she's been quiet, and the nightmares have moved to a whole new level. It hurt me because it felt like the devil still controlled her happiness from the land of the dead. She has been seeing a therapist, and we are hoping for positive results. I just want my woman to be okay, and maybe a change of environment for a while would help, I thought calmly. "What are you thinking about?" she inquired while walking into our room. It's crazy how I went into a state of confusion when I found out Ruby was not mine. I did a DNA test and I'm waiting for the results. "About you, about us... I think we need space from everything, love," I stated, and she looked at me in confusion as I held her hand. "Let's go out of the country for a while," I suggested, and she stared at my face. "But what about our daughter...?" she trailed off, and my heart warmed at her ability to always create spa

AUTHOR'S POINT OF VIEW "Sylvia didn't commit suicide. The annoying thing is the fact that she was murdered right under our nose," Oscar declared angrily as he fixed his tie. "Who killed her then?" Chase inquired as he took a drag from his smoke. "Her former boss," he replied, rubbing his forehead. "Madam Valencia?" Bryan cursed under his breath as he looked away. How she managed to get her men into the estate was definitely something to worry about. "She didn't send her men, she paid one of our men to do it, then sent a letter of apology after her job was done," Oscar responded as he threw the envelope. "And the fucker that betrayed us?" Bryan inquired. "Nowhere to be found for now. I think he went into hiding." "I always knew she wasn't stupid enough to take her own life. Too bad her past came back at her," Trenton commented, shaking his head. "Enough of Sylvia. Tonight is Cindy's party. Everyone must stick to the plan. I want this over. I've had enough of their madness," B

LAURA'S POVBryan smiled softly as he looked in my direction. I returned the same hearty smile to him.The meeting moved from dinner to the discussion of our plans and how things would be done."Cindy is already a fool right now when it comes to me, so letting me into her party is gonna be the easiest thing to do," Trenton spoke up, telling us his plan."So Laura is gonna be the bait?" Bryan inquired immediately after I came into the picture."It's a brilliant idea," I uttered before he would say no."Brilliant idea? My love, you can't face that bastard. Remember how it turned out the last time?" He questioned, concern written all over his face."How long will I keep running, love? It's high time I face my past and put an end to Mikoy once and for all, so I'm in," I declared firmly, and he sighed softly without saying anything else.He was angry, but I'd deal with his drama later. We can't add that to the list of our numerous problems.Trenton chipped in, "This time around, we have to

BRYAN'S POVThey used to have a romantic relationship in the past? If it really isn't something to be worried about, why didn't she tell me? I wondered as I ran my fingers through my hair with a frown on my face."Don't tell me you're still thinking about that stuff," Trenton nudged me on the arm as we walked toward our rooms."I can't help myself," I replied, and he chuckled."Talk to her, then. Don't let doubt creep in. This is the time when you both need each other the most, man," he urged, and I nodded as he walked in the opposite direction.I walked to my room, and there she was, in her nightwear with Ruby in her arms."Hey, love," she greeted with a bright smile on her face.I couldn't return the smile, though, even if I tried, my mind kept going back and forth."My crown," she called, and I sighed softly."Why didn't you tell me you used to have a past with Cris?" I inquired, and she turned to me in confusion."Are we still talking about him, love? I told you, there's no need t

LAURA'S POV"He asked about Cris," I told my best friend, and Kora stared at me."And what did you tell him?" she questioned while folding some clean towels."Nothing, I didn't tell him. What would I have told him?" I frowned, even the thought kept a rotten feeling in my stomach."At least, Cris used to work for you, so he would let it slide. You don't know how men can be," she chuckled."Cris used to like me so much, there was a time we even kissed, like, made out," I said, scratching my neck nervously."Wait, did you guys sleep together?" she exclaimed, her jaw literally dropping."No, no, bestie, what would make you even think that?" I replied, and she raised both hands in surrender."Don't blame me, baby girl, that guy is smoking hot..." She trailed off."Plus, you guys used to make out in the past," she teased, and my cheeks heated up in embarrassment."Kora..." I whined, and she burst out laughing."Chill, it was in the past. Bryan also had a relationship with Sylvia, they even

AUTHOR'S POV"Is he okay?" Diane inquired, as she rubbed her arms softly."Mom, you need to calm down, please. At least eat something, Bryan wouldn't like to see you in this condition," Stephanie complained, as she hugged her mother closely."I can't eat with all those pipes connected to his body. I'm so scared, I can't lose any of my children," she voiced her fear."Bryan is a fighter, he'll be fine. Just be strong," Stephanie assured her mommy, and she nodded slowly.She had to be strong for her children. Bryan wasn't going to die on her, and that's one thing she strongly believed, even as fear gnawed at her."Hello, ma'am, the lady is awake," one of the nurses reported."Laura is awake, Mother," Stephanie exclaimed happily and left with the nurse to Laura's ward.Laura's eyes fluttered open for the second time, she closed them immediately due to how the bright lights burned her eyes.She opened them again and winced at how sore her body felt, her throat dry and her head hurt."Brya

LAURA'S POVBryan has been the sweetest since I woke up. I was strangely craving noodles, so I asked him to make me some.He stared at me in amusement because noodles weren't something I craved on a normal day. But he left to make me some, after which I invited him to join me.We ended up eating together, and his phone rang in the middle of the meal. I stared at him curiously as he picked up.He looked shocked about whatever he heard at the other end because he started talking in monosyllables.Something told me deep down that something was off."Huh..." He trailed off and stopped himself from continuing."I need to go," he announced immediately after he hung up the call."Go where? It's evening, and I want you here with me," I replied, and he bit his lower lip."It's very important, baby, but I promise I will be fine," he expressed, and I sighed."At least tell me where you're going, I don't feel too good," I complained."Maybe you're worrying too much," he mentioned and kissed my fo

BRYAN'S POV"How is she doing now? Is she okay?" Her best friend Kora inquired as she rushed into my room where Laura lay unconscious on the bed.We moved her to my place after the doctors were done with the most important treatment."She's still unconscious, but the doctor assured us she's out of danger," I responded, and she heaved a sigh of relief."Glad to hear that. I was worried when they told me what happened," she remarked, and I smiled."I caused it though, I made things worse," I mumbled, and she chuckled."Oh c'mon, it's not easy to be with Mikoy in one space and not want to end his life, not after everything he put our girl through," she said, and I pressed my lips tightly together."Be careful, Bryan. I know Laura would want this fight to end with everyone alive," she commented, and patted my back."I will come to check up on her again. Yvonne is awake," she informed me, and I murmured an okay."Everything is complicated, Cindy is part of Mikoy's team, meaning they planne
