The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 75. Lunch with the CEO
Anita stares in the direction where she heard her name being called, and her eyes meet with the handsome CEO's cold, burning brown eyes. She swallows and immediately shifts her gaze away from Temisa as a faint, shaky smile spreads across her face. She realizes she hadn't even told Temisa about her ignoring the CEO the previous day. She forces her legs to move as her feet become heavier, and she finally approaches Temisa's table and nervously greets the two of them sitting there as she feels all eyes on her. "Anita! I have been calling your line since, but you didn't respond. Why?" Temisa asks her, smiling. Anita swallows as words refuse to come out of her mouth. "Temisa, can we discuss this later?" She manages to respond as a waitress approaches the table and serves Temisa and the cold boss sitting there. "Okay, wait for me after closing. I have a lot to discuss with you, especially about my brother," Temisa says, and Liam stiffens as he actually thinks Temisa's brother was romant
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 76. His longing
Temisa walks into the elevator that takes her upstairs to the third floor. She nervously steps out and walks through the open passage leading to all the glass offices and she sees some staff staring at her. She composes herself, feeling too nervous as she majestically walks to the CEO's office. Arriving in front of his office door, Temisa knocks and hears his response, "Come in." Liam is actually sitting in his office and he has already contacted Brown, who is standing in front of him dressed in a black suit, to come and help him buy another lunch as he annoyingly left his lunch. He stares at his bride-to-be, surprisingly, as he hadn't expected her to be the one knocking. "Good afternoon," Temisa nervously greets him again, and she raises her hands holding the packaged nylon upwards and says, "I brought your lunch as you didn't eat much in the cafe." "Oh, thank you," Liam responds and dismisses Brown. "You can leave." "Okay, boss," Brown says, staring at the beautiful young la
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 77. The office kiss
Anita wonders what Liam wants to say to her that made him stand up instead of sitting in his executive office seat and speaking to her. He walks out and takes a few long steps to meet her, surprising her, and now stands in front of her. Though she's a tall person, he's still taller than her, and she feels her breath seize and her heart palpitating. "What do you do?" "Shush!" Liam hushes her up, placing his index finger on her lips. Anita gulps and feels her body spark as his finger touches her soft lips, and she steps backward immediately, stammering. "Sir, you requested to see me." "Yes, I did," Liam responds, and he walks backward to sit on an empty client seat. He doesn't know why he touched Anita's soft lips and feels his urge arising to pull her closer and kiss her hungrily as her natural pink lips entice him. Liam sits and faces Anita, trying to keep a straight face and suppress his internal desire to claim her. "Why did you ignore me yesterday and act before your sister l
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 78. Feeling like a betrayal
Anita doesn't know how to comfort her friend either, as Temisa is actually going through a lot, and she has also added to it by allowing the CEO to kiss her. She knows that the CEO is actually going to marry Temisa soon, and he's even supposed to be kissing and cuddling with Temisa, not her. Anita breathes out heavily and walks up to meet Temisa, sobbing beside her car. "I'm so sorry to hear about this. I honestly don't know why your brother would do that. But your mom shouldn't have disowned them. How about your father?" Anita asks, and Temisa sighs. "He doesn't speak much. It only annoys me that Martin left with Felicia. I heard their voices that night. I heard the sounds of someone moaning in the late hour of the night, but it didn't cross my mind to check Felicia's room." "That's her name?" Anita asks, and Temisa nods. "Yes. She's white, almost like you, but you're taller than her, and she's short," Temisa responds. "And your brother left with her... Hmph..." Anita sighs heav
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 79. Remembering the kiss
"I'm fine, mother. It's nothing," Anita responds and stares downward while Mrs. Tonia gazes at Esther locking the gate. Favour finally approaches them and questions Anita as their power supply turns on, making them see Anita's red face properly under the white-shining bulb. "Hey, big sis, what's wrong? Did you lose your job?" Favour asks as she approaches Anita, with Esther walking behind her and staring at Anita's face. "Sister, what's the problem?" Esther also asks, as they all surround Anita, expressing concern. "I'm fine, and I didn't lose my job. Can we all go inside now?" Anita responds to them and walks towards the frontage first, climbing the balcony stairs and going into their living room, while they follow suit after her. Mrs. Tonia sighs and gazes at her daughters. She knows all is not well with how her eldest daughter looks, and she fears maybe Anita has truly lost her job and doesn't want to disclose it to them. Mrs. Tonia decides not to press on the topic of why A
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 80. Thinking about his past
Liam gracefully exits his luxurious vehicle and strolls back into their opulent residence. He continues to dwell on the mistake he made when he inappropriately kissed his secretary. He worries that his actions may have serious consequences, such as her resigning or refusing to come to work. The line was crossed, and the kiss was far from innocent. Initially hesitant, he found himself irresistibly drawn to her as he observed her nervous lip-biting and couldn't shake his thoughts of her. Since his return to the country, he has remained faithful, having been deeply hurt by his ex-girlfriend. Mila Anderson's background is a mix of Nigerian and American heritage, which led her to grow up in the United States. As a result, she has a fair complexion. Liam planned to propose to Mila on her 26th birthday, which happened to fall on February 14th, Valentine's Day. However, he wanted to make it a memorable and intimate moment, so he surprised her by visiting her family home, where she lived w
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 81. His mother's query
Liam doesn't know what to say to his mother. Seeing her saddened face and wanting to exit his room, he quickly responds, "Fine mother, we will go to see her family." Mrs. Juliet stops and stares back at Liam, not saying anything in response, as she exits his room. Liam breathes out heavily as he walks into his inner room to take his bath, feeling frustrated. He has to make up his mind and, most likely, choose a bride between them. His mother has said, "They can cancel the arrangements if he doesn't want Mr. John's daughter." Liam sighs and walks to his closet, taking his sparkling white towel as he strips and walks into his bathroom to bathe. Switching on the shower tap, the cold water splashes on his hot skin, soothing his annoyance, and he groans. Liam silently prays Anita doesn't quit her job, as he needs to apologize to her. Meanwhile, Anita steps out of her bathroom and walks to her bed. She dries her cold body, and just then Lisa knocks on her room door and informs her, "Di
The Cold CEO's Woman Chapter 82. Nervous feelings
Anita ignores Bambam's cold gaze on her and settles on her office seat, knowing that she's only there to work and earn and not make any friends. She remembers Alfred's proposal to her to quit working for Liam, and she wonders why Alfred hasn't even given her a call since then. Anita switches on her computer as she leans on her desk, and she doesn't care about anything else and knows in three weeks' time she will receive her first salary. Staring at her computer, booting and displaying in front of her, she wonders why the CEO hasn't arrived yet. As most times, he usually arrives early before her, and sometimes she doesn't even know he has arrived and walked past her into his office. Anita knows the CEO will soon arrive, as the time is already past 7:20 a.m. She arranges for the clients that will meet with him, checking all the clients' names. She doesn't see Alfred's name or the governor's wife's name on the list, and she sighs. Just then the elevator door opens, and Liam walks ou

The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 138: Happy ending
Liam doesn't say anything as he stands watching the two friends reunite and forgive each other. They finally stand up, and Temisa walks over to see the twin babies in their little baby bed in the living room."Wow, they look so much like Liam, but my baby resembles me more than Alfred," Temisa says, while Anita only smiles at her."It's all good, girlfriend. I wish you both a happy married life, and I will be your bridesmaid on your wedding day," Temisa proposes, and Anita shakes her head."Flora already filled that position. You will only join the train.""Okay, dear. I have to be on my way now. You know I just darted out from the house as soon as Alfred told me about your babies and that you're here with Liam. Take good care of yourself, girlfriend, as you look slim," Temisa says, while Anita nods to her."I will. Let me escort you," Anita feels all the previous heaviness in her heart disappear, and she walks out of the mansion with Temisa.They walk to the garage where Temisa's car
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 137: Reuniting with her friend
Mrs. Tonia quickly greets Mrs. Juliet, "Good evening, ma'am.""Yes, welcome. Let's go in first," Mrs. Juliet ushers them into her living room. Just then, Mr. Taiye walks in too and sees the visitors, noticing Liam carefully carrying a baby in his arms. He recognizes the familiar lady as his son's secretary and immediately knows the babies are the result of the encounter they had in Liam's office."Good evening, Father," Liam happily greets his father. Mr. Taiye nods to all their greetings, while Anita nervously stares downward, feeling uncomfortable, remembering Mr. Taiye had warned her to stay clear of his son and never show her face in his company again."Mother, here are your grandkids," Liam walks over to meet his mother, who is sitting on the living room couch. He carefully places the baby boy in her arms, and Mrs. Juliet is still in shock as Liam never told her his secretary was pregnant or that he was bringing his babies home.Mr. Taiye is the most confused as he remembers he w
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 136: Bringing her home
"Are you married?" Liam finally asks, sounding hurt. Anita shakes her head and replies, "No.""Then how come the babies?" Liam asks as he finally saunters over to meet her. He has missed her so much, and he doesn't look himself because of her."Anita," Liam finally approaches her, and she turns to face him, and he sees she's crying."I'm sorry," Anita cries, and Liam crosses the thin line between them and hugs her warmly."It's okay. I've missed you. I do love you," Liam comforts her in a hug, hoping whoever got her pregnant or married her doesn't step in and catch him hugging his wife.Anita wants to pull away from Liam as she inhales his cologne, realizing she's crying into his chest, but Liam hugs her tighter and raises her chin to face him."Don't you miss me?" he asks, and Anita sniffs."I do," she replies."And you don't want to kiss me or welcome me?"Anita finally raises her head properly and looks up at Liam's face.He looks sick too, so unlike him, and his beard is overgrown
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 135: Found her 2
Anita doesn't say anything as she watches her mother dress up in a green gown while she breastfeeds her little daughter, who sucks a lot, wanting to drain the remaining energy she has left."I have to go out now and buy everything we will need to eat tonight. There's no food in the kitchen, and I don't want to disturb Mama and her in-law.""Okay, Mom."Anita watches her mother walk out of the room. She carefully places her little girl down and walks to her phone to see all the text messages Liam sent to her. Her heartbeat increases as she unlocks her phone screen.She sees a lot of texts from him and love emojis and she smiles, staggering backward to sit on her bed to read his texts."What happened to you? Your mom said you got discharged from the hospital. Are you alright now? Not to worry, I will be coming down to your village to see you. But why did you shut us all out? I have really missed you. Honestly, I cannot stop thinking about the love we made, and I'm glad your mom finally
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 134: Mother's scolding
Mrs. Tonia pulls away from the mother-to-daughter hug and stares at Anita's face."It's okay, stop crying. Why did you run away, and who did you sleep with?" Mrs. Tonia questions as she walks to look at her grandkids.She stares at the two cute babies who are also awake and staring at her. She gasps in surprise as she isn't mistaken—the babies look so much like Liam, the CEO of Benson Group. She stares back at Anita, who’s also looking at her, and then back at the twin babies in their baby bed."Anita, who got you pregnant?" Mrs. Tonia asks again while Alice finally walks over to hold her hand."We can discuss this at home. Let it rest while we leave the hospital first."Mrs. Tonia sighs and looks from Alice to Anita and back to her grandbabies.They're so cute and fair, and now she knows why the CEO has kept on asking her about Anita.So he's the one that got her daughter pregnant and slept with Anita the very day he delayed her at work and made her return home late.Mrs. Tonia tries
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 133: Found her
Anita wakes up that evening with a light headache. She sits up in her bed and eats the dinner Alice brought for her from home."How are you feeling now? You need to breastfeed your babies and not starve them," Alice says. Anita finally looks at them as her eyes clear, and seeing one of them crying, Alice speaks to her."She's a girl, while the calm one here is a boy." Alice hands over the baby girl to Anita, who stares at her beautiful daughter's face.Her baby girl looks so much like Liam; even though she's very fair like her, her baby's short curly hair and round cute face resemble Liam so much. Anita's heart skips a beat as she keeps staring at her baby instead of breastfeeding her."Why are you still staring at her? Give her your breast milk" Alice finally yells at Anita, snapping her out of her daze. Anita opens up her shirt and breastfeeds her baby.The little girl in her arms stops crying after a while as she sucks on her breast. As if the second baby is aware, he resumes cryin
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 132: Finally finds out
"I know," Liam replies and smiles back."But I still miss Anita and want to see her account," he says."Tell me the truth, boss. Do you just miss Anita, or are you in love with her and have a crush on her?" Temisa asks, and she sees Liam smile, which already answers her question."Just send me Anita's profile name. Let me search for her first.""Okay, I will," Temisa replies as she sits up properly."What about Alfred?" Liam finally asks her as he sees her sit up."He's not yet home. You know he runs the hotels and club too, cheating on me," Temisa pouts."He's not. He complains about you starving him," Liam tells her, and Temisa gasps."He said that? I know Alfred is so shameless," Temisa replies, and just then Alfred returns and walks into their room, as they both use one room together. Even though the room was his before she moved into his family house. His mother had insisted they must share a room together as a couple, and he clearly heard her call him a shameless man."Who are y
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 131: Mother's shock
The line goes still for a while."Which sister are you talking about?" Barrister Jude asks."Oh, I just remembered I have her number, as her husband's case is with me. Mrs. Tonia, of course. Don't you know your sister again?" Mr. Collins questions."Oh, you mean her daughter is in the village? Which one?""I don't know her name yet, but she's white and very fair. She just gave birth to twins, making your sister a grandmother now.""Oh! You mean Anita?" Barrister Jude asks."Is that her name? Well, I don't know. I'm just seeing her for the first time now. Let me contact your sister then. I forgot I recently got her number due to her husband's case."Mr. Collins quickly ends the call, not giving Barrister Jude any more chances to question him. He cannot believe the silly man didn't want to help his in-law because of some past silly stories. He had to pity Mrs. Tonia and helped her case as he used to admire her when she hadn't married Mr. Joshua."Hello," Mr. Collins stands outside the h
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 130: New babies
Liam stares downward, not wanting to meet Mrs. Tonia's angry gaze, as he suspects she knows about the night he made love to Anita, but probably doesn't know who exactly slept with her.Was that why Anita left? What's really going on? he wonders."Actually, ma'am, I heard from her friend that she's going through a lot, and I don't know if I can help, but perhaps that will make her return.""Help with what? Just leave!" Mrs. Tonia shuts her door on Liam, not giving him a chance to speak.Did Anita's boss force himself on her? Mrs. Tonia wonders as she walks back to her parlor.Staring at the man, she sees him as a calm person with good moral upbringing, but is he the one that slept with her daughter and also bit and sucked on Anita's neck?If only Anita had told her the truth before she left, she wouldn't be rude to him, but she cannot help it.
