The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 27: Hectic day
Anita let out a sigh of relief as she watched her boss leave the third floor and step into the elevator that would take him down.Her day had really been hectic, from the delay at the entrance to Joel informing her that they had actually employed all the reputable staff needed, and now she was to manage the position as the assistant secretary to the humiliating secretary she had to work with, who was visibly jealous of her—much like her own sisters.Anita wondered if it had become a crime for a lady to be beautiful or fair like her.She wasn't just fair like the regular fair-looking ladies; she was actually white and sparkling bright, almost like an albino, but she wasn’t one.She shook her head sadly while eating her jollof rice. After finishing, she closed her flask and packed it into her handbag.Since Margret didn’t want to show her what to do, Anita stood up and walked toward Joel’s office to see him.She noticed that whenever she stepped out, the rest of the staff working on the

He sees his mother watering the plants; she stops, hands over the watering can to one of their maids, and walks up to meet him."Good evening, Mom," Liam greets as his mother approaches and gives him a hug."Welcome, son. How was your day at the office?" Mrs. Juliet asks."It was fine, Mother. How was your day?" "Fine, son. Did
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 29: Discussing with her friend
"Oh, that's his name; I didn't even know his name, but I saw him today too," Anita responded."Really? What does he look like? I was hoping to see him when we closed, but before I stepped out, his father said he had already gone back home.""Yeah, I saw him with an elderly man at the garage, at the restricted area at the back of the company building. Was that his father? The man looked short, and I never suspected him to be his father," Anita replied."Yes, he's short. How about the CEO? Is he tall?" Temisa asked in a panic."Yeah, although I don't really know. At first, I saw him sitting, and he sent me to ask his secretary to buy him lunch, but his secretary hates me and didn’t even want to show me what to do today in the office. I'm really stressed and don’t know if I will go to work there tomorrow," Anita replied sadly."Why? Don't mind that stupid secretary; she might just be jealous because you're cuter than she is. You know you're very pretty, so maybe she's just envious. Why no

He gives her a hug and subtly kisses her cheek. Just then, Liam, who's coming downstairs, sighs as he descends the stairs to join his parents for dinner before retiring for the night.Liam isn't surprised by his parents' lovey-dovey nature in front of him. He knows his father loves his mother dearly; for this reason, despite his vast wealth, he still sticks with his wife, who bore only him, despite all her miscarriages."Welcome back, Dad," Liam says as he reaches the bottom of the stairs, announcing his presence in the living room.He silently hopes he can find a bride like his mother—a calm and understanding woman who knows him even when he isn’t ta
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 31: Mother's tears
Anita stepped out of the room she shared with Glory and walked back to the dining room where their mother was still crying and seated on the couch in the living room.Anita stared at her mother and sighed as she walked to meet her.Her sisters were already sitting at the dining table, waiting for her and their mother.The living room was gravely silent, with only the sound of the ceiling fan rotating quickly heard."Mom," Anita said, crouching down beside her mother."Mom," Anita called again, and Mrs. Tonia sighed and stood up."I don't know how your father got himself involved in a fraudulent case. How could he? Now the police have refused to let me see him," Mrs. Tonia complained.Anita sighed. "Mom, I believe they will find the real scammers. The officers I met told me that Dad released some confidential information to a colleague who absconded with all the money, and until they trace the real perpetrator, Dad can’t be released.""Why would he get involved? I'm not happy about this

The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 33: In the elevator with the boss
Liam stood by the elevator door as he saw Anita approaching. He decided to wait for her before pressing the button to close the door.Anita walked up to the elevator and stared at him, confused."Are you going downstairs for lunch too?" he asked her in his husky, masculine voice. Anita swallowed and struggled to find words to reply."Yes, sir," she stammered."Step in," he commanded, and Raymond moved aside as other staff using the second elevator arrived. They stepped out and stared in shock at the CEO talking to the most beautiful young woman on the third floor.Joel stepped out of his glass office, intending to go downstairs for lunch as well. He saw Anita walking into the elevator, and the CEO was already inside, making him furrow his brows. They didn't even wait for him to approach as the elevator door closed, leaving Anita nervously standing beside the tall, handsome CEO.Anita felt extremely nervous; after all, the cold man was her boss.His masculine scent forced its way into h

"You heard the buzzer sound just now. Eat quickly; let's leave," Temisa says to Anita as she finishes her meal and sips her bottled water."Hmph," Anita breathes out."Waiter!" she calls, and the waiter walks over to her."Can I have an empty takeaway packet to take this food home?" Anita asks."Sure, ma'am," the waiter replies and quickly leaves them."Are you going to see your father today?" Temisa asks her."No... I need to rest today, and besides, the officers won't allow me to see him.""Hmm, it's well, girlfriend, I just hope they find the culprit because I doubt what will happen if they don't.""Hmm." Anita sighs."Here's the empty takeout pack, ma'am." The waiter returns and hands Anita a new transparent plastic plate with a blue cover."Thank you," Anita responds, and he nods and excuses himself."I have to start going back upstairs; you know my job is arranging the products into their respective cartons, so I'm leaving. Don't go home without me today!" Temisa informs Anita as
