At Susan's apartment

"Andy, are you with someone?" Susan's voice bellowed from the bedroom doorway. Greg had heard the voice but didn't see a figure so he dashed out in a swift movement since Susan's apartment was small and closed the door so gently that no one could hear it. If he ruined this for Andrew, everyone was going to suffer for it.

Andrew let out a long sigh before turning around to face Susan, who was yawning. She was still groggy from sleep.

"Are you dreaming darling, I'm all alone. I went to the kitchen to drink water and was just coming back to join you." Andrew wrapped his arms around Susan while he spoke.

"Oh, I thought I heard you speaking to someone," Susan yawned again. Perhaps she was dreaming. When the place where Andrew laid previously turned cold, she realized that he wasn't by her side. Then she heard voices speaking and went to check. It's such a shame that she was dreaming because Andrew was all alone.

"You must have been dreaming. Let's go back to sleep

    "Andrew, you son of a bitch. Are you happy now?" Pete's eyes were red as he fumed. Andrew was upset. He needed to reach the company before Mr Collins. His anger rose when he saw that it was Pete and returned the blow twice, Pete was seeing stars. "Don't come to my house and cause problems again." Andrew's voice was stern as he hissed. Pete wiped a little blood in the corners of his mouth while he laughed in mockery. "Your house? You should be ashamed. This is Susan's house. Instead of destroying people's relationships, why don't you find yourself a job? Oh, I remember. You want to start a business. Lies," Pete roared, his rage exploding as he dashed towards Andrew with speed but the latter dodged, Pete was knocked over the dining table, groaning in pain. "Get out of my house. I don't have time for you." Andrew didn't bother to help him up and went around to open the door for him. Not only was he late but also had to get back earlier to get the house cleaned before Susan returns. He

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   20 - Andrew will be mine

    Everyone who received the message was already waiting in anxiety. The CEO had been away for months, only arriving this morning. He also sent the email directly and not via his secretary and the tone was urgent. Andrew removed his contact lens before getting closer. There wasn’t much he could do about his hair. They were also surprised to see him poorly dressed. He looked good but the clothes weren’t of any luxury brand, which was surprising. Andrew Crown only wore luxury brands so what exactly happened?As expected, Greg tamed the situation before Andrew reached them. “Gentlemen, Mr Crown pdoesn’t have time. You should settle in the conference room now,” he informed the directors who had come to welcome Andrew. The shareholders were already seated.They nodded in agreement and began to head to the conference room. Greg went ahead and hugged Andrew, patting him on the back. “It’s good to see you again, let’s get you changed.”“Get someone to give Pete, the pilot, and bodyguard some br

    “I have to get go, I need to clean the house before Susan gets back,” Andrew proudly announced while changing back to the clothes he wore before. Greg was spellbound. Andrew didn't only learn how to cook, but also clean. Maybe Greg heard Andrew wrongly.“What did you say?” Greg pretended to be lost but Andrew saw through his amateur scheme.“Do you have a problem with it?” he questioned sarcastically. Greg composed himself. He dared not say anything against this Susan and rather said,“No. I just want you to approve these new documents. Some changes will have to be made because of the change of shareholders. I will be in my office to sort out the rest.” He began to stride to the door quickly to escape opposition. Andrew sat back in his executive swivel chair, took a closer look at the documents, and recalled something. “Check our real estate firm if they have a need for an architect.” Greg stopped in his tracks, the meaning of Andrew’s words caving in. Andrew had a lot in store for

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   22 - I feel like eating you alive.

    Andrew wasn't a liar. His disguise was the only reason he had to do it sometimes. Knowing that she wasn't well and also hurting, he felt depressed. Perhaps, he should just tell her everything, since he didn't see a way around this. “I…”BeepBeepIt was Susan's phone. She turned around and picked it up on the dining table. Seeing the caller, she felt conflicted but answered it anyway.“Pete, it's alright. I saw you driving out of my house and wanted to ask if you saw Andrew but he's here,” Susan spoke plainly. There was no hint of the sadness and betrayal she felt earlier. She just wasn't destined to be with a man and Andrew just proved it.Pete had been spying on Andrew, when he decided to not hang up the phone. He didn't know that Andrew would be in such a mess. Since Andrew had promised to help him after he did the right thing, he also thought of how to get Andrew out of the mess he was in. If Andrew revealed himself right now, he would be too busy to help him out. At the thought

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   23 - There is nothing between us so I owe you no explanations

    As soon as Pete drove to his apartment after speaking to Andrew on the phone, he knew that the problem between Andrew and Susan had been resolved. He had intentionally refused to answer every call from the office, including that of his business girlfriend, Candice, who was furious and disturbed. It was already a painful matter for his inability to see Charlotte and wanted it all to end. He missed her and regretted jeopardizing their relationship.As soon as Pete entered his room, Candice barged in. She had been waiting eagerly since he hadn't shown up in the office and wasn't answering her calls. Was he stupid to get back with Charlotte? Candice wanted to know. Her usual sweetness didn't follow her, and anger gushed through her, she seethed,“Do you want to lose your job? Why weren't you in the office? You know that you don't qualify for the position of MD and only got it because of me. If this ever happens again, you'll get fired. For now, I created an excuse for you to my dad and he

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   24 - Candice’s revenge

    Pete woke up earlier than usual, took a taxi, and went to Charlotte’s house. He was surprised to see a familiar car parked in front of the house beside Charlotte’s and grew apprehensive.“What is Candice doing here?” He asked no one in particular, while he paid the taxi driver, alighted, and began to walk towards the car. Suddenly, he stopped when he saw Charlotte coming out of the gate and began walking toward her car.He deliberated whether or not to go to her and make his intentions known but before he could decide, the woman in the familiar car stepped out and walked up to Charlotte. If he got close too, Charlotte might think that they came together, thereby hiding behind Candice's car.“You shameless whore, where is Pete?” Candice yelled at Charlotte when she got close to her. Candice just wanted to be sure that Pete wasn't around to see or rescue Charlotte but Charlotte didn't know that. Her face dulled with confusion but she was also upset. How could she have known that lettin

    “It was just as you predicted. Candice sent thugs after Charlotte. She must be mentally deranged like you guessed,” Greg began to explain. When the spies he had planted around Charlotte per Andrew's instruction called to inform him, he was greatly disturbed. Andrew didn't want Susan to be worried about anything but this happened, which meant that Susan was going to hear about it and get worried. Greg took it upon himself to inform Andrew first, just so that he'd be prepared.“And?” Andrew didn't just want to hear about the problem but the solution as well. Greg instantly regained himself and explained further.“Pete tried to save her and got hit by a bullet. He's in the hospital.”“How could you let that happen? Where is Charlotte?” Andrew was angry and yelled, forgetting that Susan was just a wall away. If Susan heard about this, she’ll spend all her time in the hospital with her friends.“Charlotte is with Pete at the hospital,” Greg lowered his head and said. He had failed Andrew

    Andrew wrapped his arms around her and whispered, “calm down, Susan, I won't allow anyone to take you away from me.”Susan's face was still buried in his chest while she yelled, “then tell them to get out!”Andrew pulled away and cupped her face in his hands. He looked into her eyes helplessly. “I can't. They are your parents.” For as long as they didn't try to abuse her, how could he tell them to leave? Besides, they were his future in-laws. Susan’s thoughts were rather contradictory.“So you want me to marry another man? Do you even love me?” She muffled her teary face with a bitter laugh. Andrew couldn't tell that she didn't understand his words.“I'm not asking you to marry another man. I am just asking you to relax and speak to them sensibly.”Andrew walked her to the sofa after saying that and brought her a cup of hot coffee. Susan felt flustered. She allowed her emotions to control her senses but wondered how Andrew could read her emotions like that. His intelligence scared he

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   Epilogue

    Andrew and Susan had just returned from Fiona’s wedding in Holland. Susan soaked her heavy and tired body in a bubble bath in the jacuzzi as Andrew washed her with lather. Since they had a healthy pregnancy, they made love almost every night after making sure that Sophia was sound asleep. Today, their little flower was equally exhausted by the trip to Holland and slept as soon as she had her shower and dinner respectively.Before, the girl would slip into their room countless times and sleep in between them. Andrew made sure to send her back to her room anytime she fell asleep, so he could make good use of the private moment with his wife. They loved Sophia and always tried to be there for her but also ensured to make time for each other.“The doctor said I’m due,” Susan reminded him. She was too tired to give in tonight and she could feel some light contractions as well. Since her first labor lasted for 48 hours, she decided to wait until the pain became unbearable.“Point of correcti

    Two weeks Later “Now you may kiss the bride,” the priest announced. There were cheers of excitement as their lips met. The kiss was unusually long, in that Greg had to remind Andrew that they could continue during the honeymoon. It was agreed that since Greg was the best man, Mia should be given the role of the maid of honor. Amelia, Charlotte and Dora were the bridesmaids. The tail of Susan’s wedding gown swept the aisle, as the pair walked out of the auditorium amidst cheers. Two families were united today. Mr and Mrs Stack were the proudest parents ever known. The media took over, announcing the wedding as one of the biggest in the history of New York. Youngsters could only wish to have such a wedding one day. Dora bid her foster parents farewell as promised to Susan and left for Canada. Andrew and Susan had secured admission for her in one of the prestigious universities so she returned the money given to her by Melissa’s brother’s men to the police. However, she kept Susan’

    Susan frowned slightly. If there was even the slightest hint that Dora had not changed, she was going to get even. “I have to know what it is first.”“Can I be one of your bridesmaids? It’s the last thing I want to do before I leave. I will understand if you don’t want me at your wedding but I mean everything I’m saying. It’s useless trying to tear apart two people who love each other. I don’t want to end up as a desperate woman. I want my life to be better with the lessons I’ve learnt.”Susan stared strangely at her before she said, “I don’t know why I’m doing this but I will grant your wish.” It seemed to Susan that Dora genuinely wanted to be close to her but they just got off from a wrong start. “Thanks sis, you’ve made me happy but please make sure that that bitch rots in prison,” Dora said and was about to give in to sleep when Susan asked, “How did you know the one who attacked you?” Since Dora was pretending to be asleep by then, she shouldn’t have seen her attacker right?“

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   68 - Dora’s last request

    “Dora?” Andrew spoke in a whisper. He was shocked but also disturbed. What was Dora doing in his room in Susan’s clothes and ring and where was Susan? The bed was soaked with blood and so was Dora. Andrew’s white shirt was already marked with a few stains as well, as he held her in his arms.The siren outside showed that the police and emergency teams had arrived so he gave the body to the driver to convey to the ambulance while he continued searching for Susan. He checked the washrooms and any and every room with no sign of her. The more he searched the greater his disappointment, as he kept calling her number but there was no answer and her phone was nowhere to be found. He decided to wake Melissa to ask her a few questions, since the security personnel authorized to retrieve the CCTV was also unconscious. If Andrew wanted to do it himself, it would take too long and there weren’t any cameras in his room for the sake of privacy. Luckily, the police walked in with paramedics who kep

  • The CEO silenced me with a Kiss   67 - Fiona betrays Melissa

    Susan walked past Andrew and stopped when she saw Dora. Her anger boiled as she saw Dora’s hair. Light brown and wavy, just like Susan’s. She was also wet from the rain and shivering like a chicken. Melissa and Fiona had also come out, same as Amelia and Charlotte. It seemed to be a full house, as the maids began to gossip.‘The boss allowed another woman to come to his home and she looks like Miss Susan. Might be her sister.”“Too many people are coming into the house these days but it takes away the boredom.”“Don’t you girls have anything to do? You could begin by going out there and washing the rain,” Yvonne said sarcastically in a hushed tone to the two maids. They paled and went to get themselves busy.“What do you want Dora?” Susan asked with a deep gaze. Since her parents hadn’t come with Dora, she felt that they weren’t even aware or Dora must have lied to them before coming. Afterall, her parents were satisfied with all that Andrew gave them. Dora put on an innocent look.“N

    Susan couldn’t believe that when she was trying to secretly help Xavier’s sister, she was running into trouble. If Andrew hadn’t followed her, she couldn’t imagine the worst. Andrew wasn’t surprised. He never trusted or liked Xavier because of what he did to Susan previously. “What are you talking about?” Andrew asked Xavier with blood shot eyes. He was greatly upset. Xavier was afraid. Not of Andrew per se but the man who called him. He sounded like a psycho. His face dulled and he refused to give any information.“I'm sorry I can't give details, just keep her safe.”Andrew suspected that Xavier was afraid of something or someone. “How about I get you arrested?” He threatened him. Going to jail or losing his business? None of the options seemed appetizing.“Look, my business will go down if I give out any more details,” he said. He had hurt Susan in the past and slowly caused her another one. It was time for him to pay his debts with interest.Since it concerned Susan’s safety, Andre

    “You think she’s up to something?” Susan asked Andrew when he got off the phone. She was still conflicted as to why Andrew answered Melissa’s phone and the way the latter didn’t refuse. ‘Were they on such terms back then?’ Phones were private and if someone did what Andrew did, then it meant that they were really close. Andrew was still in deep thought, not knowing what was going through Susan’s mind. Till he hears news from Greg, he wasn’t going to write his own conclusion.“Didn’t you hear her? I’m the only one she remembers so why would someone else call her?” Andrew asked strategically. When Susan got a hint of what he had done, she felt ashamed to think that Andrew felt anything for Melissa, for which reason he jealously answered her phone. It was just a matter of mere suspicion. Meanwhile, Susan recalled something and asked,“What if it’s Letty? They are quite close.”Andrew shook his head and sat on the bed in deep thought. “The voice I heard was a male one.”Susan was taken ab

    Amelia was startled and slightly guilty but Susan had already jumped into the arms of Andrew. Out of breath from kissing so deep and passionately, they finally pulled away as Andrew said with a frown, “don’t jump like that next time. What if you hurt the baby?”His hands caressed her flat stomach while he spoke. Susan was amused. “Come on, the baby is in a safe place and won’t get hurt when I jump a little. I missed you Andy,” she kissed him again. It's been just two days away from each other but it seemed to them like a decade. "I miss you too, for which reason I had to take your reckless advice," Andrew grimaced while leading her back to the dining table. Susan's gaze swiped around and she asked curiously, "where is Melissa?" "In the hospital. She had ulcer crises after eating the sorbet," Andrew explained. His expression was calm. Susan felt pity for Melissa. ‘She might be going through a lot of pain. Poor girl.’"Sorry for her but is she better?" Susan asked Andrew worriedly. If

    Andrew went back to the ward after his video call with Susan and asked the doctor, “So you think the best way to help her to recover fast is to live with her and do the things we did before?”“Yes.” The doctor confirmed.“Alright then.” He turned to Fiona. “Pack her stuff, we are leaving for NY.”“Why?” Melissa was awed. Letty had told her that Andrew was getting married but since Andrew never mentioned it when he arrived, she sensed that he was concerned about her. She couldn’t allow another woman to be around Andrew till he fell in love with her. She had been awake for exactly four weeks now but Letty wanted her to recover well because Susan was a very attractive woman. If the wedding hadn’t been announced, Letty would have still waited for Melissa to be completely well before arranging for her and Andrew to meet.“You heard the doctor. We have to live together and I’m not based here.” He spoke impatiently because he was annoyed. If not for Susan, he wouldn’t have done this.“But..”
