The CEOs Rejected Bride. 62. OFFICE AFFAIR [2]
The door suddenly opened and Hera's heart sank. She quickly turned her head around to see who it was even though she was not sure if that should have been the first thing to do in such a situation. Standing at the door was no other than Blake with an 'I-am-done look' on his face. Zach sighed and rubbed his forehead while Hera sprang up to her feet. "Can you please close the door?" He asked his friend. Drake was surprised and did as told before walking over to meet them.Hera couldn't believe that Zach didn't lock the door. Even Drake was surprised. "Mr. Blake, it's not..." Hera wanted to defend whatever he saw but he was already in on what was happening. "Can you two at least lock the door before going this deeper? I mean the two of you just started and you, my friend are already taking things too far."Blake mentioned as he pulled out the chair and sat down. "You don't tell me what to do in my relationship." Zach snapped at him and then pulled Hera again to sit on his lap. The

The relationship between Zach and Hera was going smoothly and it felt easy to hide at first. Zach was the one working harder on the relationship and building more info their closeness as a couple. He would often sneak to her place in the middle of the night while he left Blake to clean his mess whenever any came up.At this point, Hera received Anna's call from downstairs that someone was asking after her. Immediately, she packed her things up and left the office. Zach had not been around for two days so staying inside the office was such a big blow to her face. She had no one to stare at or stare at her. She felt completely lonely once more but then his calls kept her going most time.As soon as she came out of the elevator, she saw a delivery man. He was wearing a long-sleeved red shirt and black pants alongside the baseball cap that had a badge for the company that he was working with. "He said that he is here for you." Anna pointed when she saw Hera. She was surprised to see a

Hera went ahead to meet Selena at the designated location that she had sent to her. It was a Cafe nevertheless and it seemed to be an abandoned one seeing as no one was in there but old furniture and some uncertain things. Hera opened the door and looked around her carefully. The smell of burnt cake welcomed her nostrils she had to sniff and rub her nose as a gesture to it. Then Selena waved to her and she smiled quickly. Hera hastily went over to meet her and sat when she got to Selena's side. "Hi." Selena waved. "Hi." "I am sorry for calling you here on short notice." "It's fine. What's this place?" Hera asked as she looked around again.Selena chuckled, "It belongs to my grandmother. This is my grandmother's cafe that has been in existence from one generation to another. It was passed down to her. I rarely come here though but I had to because of our meeting. Is this place suitable enough for you? We can go elsewhere if you want." Hera shook her head in disagreement,
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 65. WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ME?
"So, you decided to keep the truth away from me, Hera?" Anna asked after listening to Hera's side of the story.Hera sighed and nodded her head apologetically. "I didn't wish to, Anna. I was going to tell you sooner or later but I was just a bit skeptical about everything. I wasn't sure that it would work out since we just started and I was also scared as well." "Scared? Why would you be scared?" "About the attention that I might receive for being with him." "Who cares? Someone has to settle down with him anyway. If you both love each other it's fine. He is also aware of this and he is ready to fight against the world for the both of you so I see no reason why you shouldn't do the same too." Anna responded.Hera sighed again. "So, do you love me?" Anna asked her friend eagerly. "Well...he seems okay to begin with and his smile...his touch...his words everything seems to affect my brain in so many aspects. I only pretend not to be affected when in reality, I am so much affected
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 66. JEALOUSY.
Zach was soon back from the business trip he went on and was in his parents' house as usual. He would have loved to spend every second of his with Hera and Austin but right at the moment, he was forced to stay with the family, probably to keep them company. It was then that he realized that Delilah was now living with him in the same house. He didn't know what his parents' aim was about this but he tried as much as possible to be nice to her to a certain limit as it ought to be. "It's been a while since we had fun." Delilah started a topic after their wine had been served. Zach looked up from his phone and glanced at her. He nodded reluctantly before he continued pressing his phone. "Do you perhaps have anywhere in mind that we both can go to and spend the day together?" "Aren't you busy with work? I am also busy with work so I don't have enough time to spend fooling around." He replied instantly. "Fooling around? I never knew that you would call closeness between best f

"Where are you, Austin?" Zach called out after he removed his hands from his eyes. He looked around the sitting room in search of the little boy. He then stood up with a smile. "You are very sneaky, aren't you?" He added and started to look everywhere else. He searched under the table, behind the couches and sofas but he couldn't find him.He then looked at Hera helplessly, expecting her to help him. "Aren't you going to help me?" He asked her.She smiled, "Why should I? I wasn't the one who started the game after all." She answered and continued kneading the dough. "You are such a heartless person." Zach scoffed and walked away in search of Austin.Hera shook her head and turned around. After a few more minutes, she heard Austin squeal while Zach shouted with happiness for having found him.Austin ran out to hug his mother while laughing hysterically. "I told you that I was going to find you," Zach smirked. "I simply made it easy for you." Austin shot back. "Yea
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 68. THE TRUTH ABOUT DELILAH.
A few days later, Zach dropped Austin off at school before going ahead to drop off his mum. She informed him about the opportunity that Selena had told her about and that she was going there to take some pictures as she said. "I see. Selena was the one who helped you that night, right?" He asked as he pressed the brakes before taking the route that led to the entertainment company. "Yes, do you know her?" "Not really. I am not involved in the entertainment industry that much anyway but I have heard Delilah talk about her a few times whenever she was around." He answered. Hera then frowned. "Delilah?" "Yeah. What happened?" "Nothing. I heard that she has been your childhood best friend for quite a long time."Zach nodded, "Yeah, we grew up together but I was not that close with her because of my choice of course so rather than walking up and down the Earth, I would rather lock myself in a room and study till Dawn while she walks around on high heels, attending celeb
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 69. MOTHER, I NEED HELP!
"Mum, we have to make the next move now." Delilah requested as soon as she burst into her room. "Why? What move is that?" Elizabeth asked as she switched off her iPad where she was receiving updates regarding her work. "The next move on me being Zach's bride. We have to make the next move now." She sat down grumpily and crossed her legs. "Oh, I see but why are you so nervous to want to do something like that in a rush?" "Well, Mum, I have to. I have to do it in a rush. You won't believe me when I say that Zach is in love with another woman." She sobbed. Elizabeth was surprised and she put down her iPad. She got closer to her daughter, wanting to get more information regarding that. "In love with a woman? How is that possible? When did he tell you this?" "A few days ago. I was shocked when I heard it, Mum. I just had to pretend as if it meant nothing to me. What if our plans of getting into the Albert Young Family don't work? What will we do then? I don't want
