The CEO'S Forbidden Secret CH 61
LAURA'S POVWhy is he staring at me like that? I wondered. Was it just my thoughts, or has Bryan been staring at me ever since he entered this house?I hope he hasn't found another reason to start a fight with me. I've done nothing wrong. I pulled my dress down a bit but stopped myself immediately. What's the use of pulling my dress down?It's not like I'm dressed in an indecent manner, I thought with a frown on my face. As I tried to leave the room, he cleared his throat, which made me halt my steps immediately."Come over here," his voice called out to me. Ever since I hurt him, he's distanced himself, even his emotions."Huh?" I replied immediately as I got to where he was seated."How was your first day? What did you encounter at the mansion?" He inquired professionally."Nothing much everything was pretty normal. Even the head maid was pretty nice. According to her, the boss doesn't come over that much, but he comes by whenever he wants to," I explained, and he pinched the bridge

BRYAN'S POV"How was work?" Jacob inquired as he blew out the smoke from his cigarette in his room."I met Viktor, and trust me, the guy knows I can be used to his advantage. He mentioned something about me gaining his trust," I responded, and he smirked."Good one. I feel we are playing our cards right, but even at that, we need to make sure he trusts you soon. That's the easiest way we can get the information we need," he remarked and drank from his glass of wine."Is it really necessary for her to work at his mansion?" I questioned, and Jacob turned in my direction."Is there something you're not telling me? I see the way you look at her, Bryan. I thought you had a fiancée," Jacob teased."It's complicated. Laura and I used to have something in the past, and... she broke up with me," I confessed, trying to control my emotions."That's sad," Jacob muttered as he poured wine into his glass."She doesn't feel the same way for me, I guess. It's my fault that, after all these years, my

LAURA'S POV"Rest," his words echoed in my ears as I glared at the door where he had just exited.How could he be so arrogant?And his shirt... I frowned as I raised it, staring at it and then back at the door he had just left through.My mind wandered to the way he peeled the shirt from his body... his biceps and abs."Fuck," I cursed under my breath, rubbing my face in frustration. I managed to take a shower, and when I walked out of the bathroom in my robe, he was sitting on the bed, drinking coffee."You haven’t left for work?" I inquired, folding my arms."I'm making sure you arrive safely before I leave," he responded, and I scoffed immediately."That's not necessary, Mr. Finch. We are only business partners, and I can take care of myself," I remarked, and he smirked."I can see that," he commented mockingly, and I knew he was referring to the bathroom incident. I ignored him as I strolled toward the wardrobe and picked out my outfit for the day."I made you breakfast," he infor

LAURA'S POV"I had fun... thanks a lot, ma'am," I remarked with a smile on my face as we strolled into the house with the things we bought from the market."Welcome, Mom. Hey, Nuella, Elroy arrived a little while ago and he inquired about your whereabouts," she mentioned, and I acknowledged with a slight tilt of my head."Oh, okay. I'll just check what he wants," I replied and walked toward the direction of our room.It was already dark when I walked into the room. My jaw nearly dropped in surprise when my eyes met Bryan's. He looked way too calm for my liking. And there was this dark aura of arrogance and sexiness surrounding him."We need to talk," he muttered, and I stared at him.What did he want us to talk about? After he nearly ruined my game with Viktor this afternoon."About what?" I inquired and tried walking past him, but he held my wrist and pulled me into his arms."What are you...?" I trailed off in shock as he gently ran his fingers through my hair. My heart pounded agai

BRYAN'S POVLast night was too much for me. I didn't talk to her when I returned to bed. She tried to touch me twice, but I rolled to the edge of the bed.When I woke up the next morning, our eyes met. She looked away and muttered a quick good morning."Good morning," I replied as I tried to walk past her. She rubbed her face."We are supposed to join Jacob's mom at the farm," she murmured softly."I know," I answered and walked out of the room."Bryan," she called as we stepped outside together, and I turned with an eyebrow raised."Huh... the thing is... about last night..." She hesitated nervously."Forget it happened. I probably had too much alcohol in my system," I muttered, and her eyes flashed with hurt."I understand," she replied and walked past me.Is she going to the farm dressed like that? I wondered as I stared at the dress she wore.It was a black floral dress that ended just before her knees and a black cute yellow sandals that complimented her skin. We walked out to th

LAURA'S POVHot, sweaty, and pleasure, that's how I felt when he touched me in places that drove me crazy.His name left my lips like a prayer, I was high ...so high it scared the wits out of me."Bry..." I cried out as I felt his thick long fingers slide through my folds.I was burning, the sensation was something I couldn't fathom; it felt like the world stopped, time froze, and all I could feel was the naughtiness of his fingers as they drove in and out of me with reckless abandon.He sent them in slowly then a bit fast, I got the tempo, and I raised my butt a bit immediately he added another finger.I sighed in pleasure as I moved my body to the rhythm. I winced in painful pleasure as he added another, stretching me out."Bryan," I shouted his name as his hot lips trailed my neck back to my lips and devoured them.Making my brain mushy. I felt drunk...all I wanted was him.Just him."I want to be inside you," his husky voice whispered out in hunger, and my eyes snapped open.Fuck

LAURA'S POV"Let's cuddle, it's a weather for lovers..." he uttered teasingly, and I blushed red.This man is acting weird. I mean, he just changed all of a sudden. He has been so cold toward me that I actually forgot there was a playful side to him.What did you expect after all the things you put him through? My mind mocked.I shook my head as I got to the bed. He smirked and decided to excuse me for a while.Immediately he left, my phone rang, and I smiled when I saw the caller ID."Cris," I said immediately I picked up the call."Laura, I thought something bad happened to you. I've been trying to reach you for days," he stated worriedly."I'm fine, Cris. I told you not to worry about me... it's work," I murmured the last part softly."I know I'm not supposed to be so worried about you, but I can't help it. My heart wouldn't listen to me," he stated, and I fell quiet."Cris," I called his name in distress."But it's okay. Just don't tell me to move on, please," he uttered, and I ra

BRYAN'S POV"Oscar and Trenton have requested your presence back in the estate," Jacob announced as he ran his fingers through his hair."Wait, I thought we had to stay here for a month?" I inquired, and he sighed."It's kind of complicated. I think the game has changed or something," he replied, and I nodded.Whatever reason they wanted us back home so soon must be really important."What about your parents? And our jobs here... isn't that the only lead we have on Viktor?" I said in frustration."Calm down, man. I'm sure they have another plan or something... Where's Laura?" he inquired, and I frowned."I... I have no idea," I admitted, as the realization dawned on me that I hadn't seen her since I got back."I don't know. I haven't seen her since I got back from work," I added, and Jacob cursed under his breath."C'mon, we need to track her down," he urged, and we both left the house. It had stopped raining, and it felt cold outside.Laura is way too stubborn sometimes, and the thou

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
