The Forgotten CEO 17. A Walking Time Bomb
Jacyn coldly stared at the intruder, "Indeed, the president is so eager to see me." She sarcastically said. "Lead the way, then." The woman felt goosebumps as the PR Director followed her to the president's office. She could feel the cold stare on her back. She knocked on the door twice and opened it widely so that Jacyn could enter."Hello, my dear niece! How are you coping up?" He asked with a fake smile after the door was closed."Mr. Wang Lou," she acknowledged him with a bored nod as she glanced around the office with an uninterested look. Her eyes narrowed as she noticed the wall with his family picture on it. She'll rip off that wall in the near future. It's supposed to be her family. Not his, not them. She looked at her wristwatch like telling him that he's just wasting her time. "I've been busy. Why did you call me here?" She acted innocently."Jacyn, I heard about what had happened in the audition of the movie we're trying to invest in. It was already the talk of the whol
The Forgotten CEO 18. A Weird Dream
"Big brother! Big brother!" A girl dressed in white came running. She was breathless from all the running. She managed a sweet smile for the young lad she called big brother. Her smile didn't reach her eyes. They seemed to be in the airport. Jacyn couldn't see the young man's face. It was blurry."Big Brother, look at me. Do I look pretty in this dress?" She asked him, turning around holding the hem of her dress. She looked like a little bride. She had white roses on her hair to compliment her white dress."You look lovely today. You look like a real princess." He replied, ruffling her hair affectionately."Big brother, do you really have to go?" She said in between tears. She was already sniffing while scratching her eyes. She pitifully looked up at him with uncontrolled sobs.The young man hugged the little girl. She could feel that he was hesitating to go. He let go of her, bent a little while holding her little face in his hands. "Little one, I have to go for our future. I'll pro
The Forgotten CEO 19. Asking him a favor
"What's my schedule for the day, Miss Lin?" Jacyn asked as she entered her office. She sighed as she saw piles of documents on her table. She just arrived and now, she's expecting a full packed day. Her work load seemed to have increased lately since the movie audition. She thought that it had something to do with that but she didn't care. She was diligent and hardworking even before she came back."We have a department meeting at 1:00 pm. Then, you have a meeting with an advertising company at 3:00 pm. Also, several people called asking if you are free for dinner tonight?" Lin Xian said while she's looking at her calendar on her tab. "Who were those people?" She asked uninterestedly. There was also an increase in calls lately, asking her out. They were the young masters from different affluent families all over the country who would like to have connections with her. Some were friendly dates and business meetings. Even mothers were trying to ask her out to matchmake her with their s
The Forgotten CEO 20. There's only one Jacyn Lou
"We're here, Jace." Liam's husky voice woke her up from her trance. She didn't realize that they were now in front of the restaurant. " What were you thinking?" He said while looking at her gently."Uhmm.. no-nothing." She shook her head, denying that she's in a deep thought."Are you sure?" He looked at her with disbelief."Yeah, I'm sure. Why?" She keeps on denying it. She was bothered, yes, but she won't tell him anyway."Really, huh?" He softly chuckled. "We've been here for like ten minutes, but you seemed to be in a deep thought that you didn't notice that we've already arrived.""What? Ten minutes? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She blushed, she was caught lying. "Yeah, you seemed to be bothered about something. I'm afraid to disturb your thoughts, but you know, we don't have the whole night for ourselves. The food is waiting for us," he said with a wink, enjoying her discomfort. He unbuckled his seatbelt and went down the car. He opened the door and helped her go down. "You
The Forgotten CEO 21. Who would dare to kick my woman out?
"You really came," Marco said incredulously. He stared intently at the woman approaching them. She looked particularly stunning in a black, off shoulder, and princess cut maxi dress. She was walking towards them with grace and confidence. Her beauty overflows that everyone around her seems to be insignificant. Is this still the Jacyn he knew?He knew her back in her teenage years. She was the most beautiful and the most intelligent girl on their campus. Back then, she seemed oblivious to that fact that she still lacked confidence over the years. But looking at her right now, she looked so sure of herself. She was confidently beautiful.He noticed her cold frowning face and that made him unsure of the reason why she was here. But he kept those thoughts aside and walked forward to meet her."You're finally here, babe. You really couldn't endure to keep me waiting, right?" He said, about to hug her, but she managed to avoid him."What are you saying?" She asked coldly, looking at him and
The Forgotten CEO 22. If only he could, he would.
'Has she gone overboard? Was it worth it?' She asked herself while looking at the receding figure of the couple. Was it better if she just let Marco explain his side of the story? No, there is no other better way than this, to let him feel the same pain he caused her. They both deserve this."Are you okay?" Liam was worried after seeing the look in her face."Of course, I'm more than okay." She grinned at him cheekily. He found her smile adorable and that greatly lightens his mood. He smiled back at her."Shall we proceed with our dinner, then?" He gently asked her while offering his arm. She nodded and hooked her arms to his. He looked at her eyes that were shining, mirroring the lights of the place.They settled at the open space on the second floor of the Silver Place where the sea of stars can be seen. The whole place was very silent with a sweet sound of violin playing. It was a romantic type of date.She blushed on the thought that she initiated this dinner. What will he think
The Forgotten CEO 23. Stop thanking me.
Winnie Lou was so angry that she slammed the car door behind. "Ahhhh!!! What happened back there, Marco?" She shouted at him, her eyes red with fury."I don't know, Winnie - I don't know!" He shouted back at her, obviously suppressing his anger. He didn't know what had gone wrong. Maybe his message didn't reach Jacyn, that's why she didn't know of their supposed date. Maybe her secretary never mentioned it to her. How about Winnie? How did she know about his location? "Were you spying on me, Winnie?" He said with a darkened expression."What are you trying to imply? Me? Spy on you?" She shook her head unbelievingly. "You're unbelievable, Marco.""Oh, now we're talking. Why were you spying on me, huh?" Marco was fuming in anger. How could she know that he's waiting for Jacyn there if she didn't spy on him. It couldn't be a coincidence. "Marco, I am not spying on you, okay? You invited me, you asked me for a date!!" She started to cry. "Here, let me show you your message." She searche
The Forgotten CEO 24. Flashbacks
“Someone’s following us, young miss.” Uncle Shan warned her, while he glimpsed at the rearview mirror from time to time. “Look at that white van, since we passed by the crossroad, it's already tailing us."Jacyn looked back and saw a white van in the distance. It was early in the morning and there were not too many cars on the road. The van couldn't be easily spotted as it maintained a significant distance from them. If it was only her, she wouldn't have noticed that that car was following them discreetly. But it was Uncle Shan, her personal driver and bodyguard. He was a retired military and he was trained for this purpose. And so she believed his judgement."Uncle Shan, what should we do, then?" She said weakly, her hair started to rise on one end. It was like a deja vu and she started to panic. Uncle Shan increased their speed as an answer to her. She looked back and noticed that the van increased its speed too, to keep them within their range. "Please put on your seatbelt, Miss.

She groggily wakes up to the sound of the alarm. She felt so tired and sleepy yet she had to get up else the young master would scold her for being late again.Jacyn hastily got up and readied herself. She had no time to waste as it was already late. Silence enveloped her as she went out of her room. She silently went to the kitchen and heated whatever leftover food from last night as she waited for Liam. But thirty minutes gone and he was still out of sight. As she was beginning to feel something was amiss, she knocked on his room only to find out that the young master had already left."Why did he leave me? Why did he not wake me up?" Jacyn complained to herself. Sometimes, she couldn't understand him. She couldn't decipher his thoughts. "Ahhh…did I make him angry again?" Suddenly, she felt nervous. What if the young master was angry at her? He may make her life more miserable.She ran and got her things. She could just drive alone at the company. She saw her car keys in her bag but
The Forgotten CEO 49. The Only Constant
The past few weeks were like a roller coaster ride for Jacyn. From her ex-boyfriend's betrayal to her failed revenge plan, she felt everything's going against her. She felt her world was crushed down and then, when she decided to fight, everyone unites and brings her down to the core. Nothing's going according to her plan.During those times of chaos and turmoil, except for her grandparents, Liam was the only constant in her life. Since he was introduced as her fiance, he was really acting like one. Like he had known her all his life and as if it was not arranged. The first time they met, he made it look like they weren't strangers. He even told her that she had forgotten him. Since that day, he had not told her why he had said that. She was also afraid to know so she never asked him. They avoid the topic like a plague. But she could feel that Liam treats her differently from the others. He was a cold, distant CEO to other people. They were scared and just admired him from afar. But
The Forgotten CEO 48. The Last Minute Change
"Achoo…" Jacyn sneezed as she shivered. Did someone think badly about her?"Hey, are you okay?" Liam asked her worriedly as he checked on her temperature."I'm okay. I just feel cold all of a sudden." She smiled at him. They're on their way to the office. Though they went to the office together almost everyday, no one suspects anything about them. They believed it was just a pure employer-employee relationship. "Drink some meds later." His brows knitted. "Uhmm, okay boss." She rolled her eyes at him as she agreed or else he won't stop on nagging her. As days passed by, she felt comfortable with him like she already knew him for so long. Even she couldn't believe it, she knew how long she could warm up to people, but to Liam. It took him barely a month for her to feel like they were the best of friends. "Young master?""Uhmm, yeah?" He answered gently without looking at her."Why are you so good to me?" She asked while she looked at his side face. He was so handsome even on the side
The Forgotten CEO 47. Young Master Yan - Part II
"Big Brother Yan! Don't forget me when you get there." The young Jacyn told her with teary eyes. She was in pigtails and a princess gown. She was the princess of the Lou family. She was seven years old when he last saw her. He was thirteen. Liam was twelve. Their grandfathers were best friends since they were young, so they grew up together. They became best friends. He remembered they used to play together. Jacyn was a bubbly, little girl who played with them all day. Since she grew up with them, the game was all for boys and she blended with them easily. She was not a typical crybaby. She was an independent and strong little girl. Their time together was shortened when his family decided to migrate to the States. He didn't want to leave her there but he had no choice. "I'll take care of her, Xueqin." Liam patted his back as re-assurance. He just nodded at him and gave him a brotherly hug.That was the last time he saw Jacyn. Four years passed and he received a news from his gra
The Forgotten CEO 46. Young Master Yan
"I'm just kidding you." Master Yan laughed out loud looking at the two of them. "I know you're really meant for each other." He said with a meaningful gaze. He remembered how broken everyone was when the news about the Lou family being murdered. Only few and closest friends knew about Jacyn being alive. No one questioned the Old Lou why they hid Jacyn for a long time. And now, he could see that the old man had done a good job hiding her. "I've known the situation of the Lou Group. Don't hesitate to ask for help from me, young lady. I will try to give assistance whenever possible." He added seriously."Thank you, Grandfather." Jacyn bowed as a sign of respect to him.He laughed, "The old Lou was abroad? Now that I have already come back, he's not around. How about the Lee patriarch?" "My grandparents were both in the province. They love the climate there, especially the morning breeze as they walk on the beach." Liam answered. " You should visit them one of these days. I think you'll
The Forgotten CEO 45. Connections
"Miss Lou, what happened yesterday? Where did you guys go?" The secretaries surrounded Jacyn once they saw the CEO enter his office. They were already on 'gossip' mode."Have you seen them lovey dovey with each other?" They were thrilled to know if their goddess and the CEO were really in a relationship.Jacyn looked at Mr. Ng who just got out of the CEO's office. They didn't know that he was there already. He stifled his laughter as he heard them bombard her by their stupid questions. He didn't move and shrugged his shoulders playfully.Jacyn secretly rolled her eyes at Mr. Ng, she really didn't know how to handle these bunch of ladies who look ready to fight to get gossip about the great Liam Lee."Well, the CEO dropped me at the mall to buy something." She lied to them, because she didn't want to burst their bubble. "Why don't you ask Chief Secretary Ng instead?" She pointed at him, shifting the burden to the innocent Jawn Ng. "If someone knew the real score between them, it must b
The Forgotten CEO 44. Because you are my fiancèe.
"Remind me again why a CEO like you knows how to cook." Jacyn teased him as they prepared the ingredients together."I was sent to study abroad when I was fifteen. I went from being the young master of the Lee's to a nobody. There's no one around to fend for me. I have to take care of myself." He frowned at her. "I learned to cook for myself. Later on, I enjoyed cooking to the point where I got part time jobs in the kitchen. Just to, you know, improve my skills." He playfully winked at her. "That's why my cooking is top notch!"She laughed at him. Well, if she hadn't seen him last time cooking for their breakfast, she might think that he's only kidding. But she saw how he moved in the kitchen. She would admit that he really was skilled in this area.They busied themselves in the kitchen cooking for their dinner. They didn't stop until their table was already filled with many dishes. "Let's eat!" Jacyn looked excitedly at the sumptuous dinner, ready to dig in. "Hmmm… you really have s
The Forgotten CEO 43. The way to a man's heart
"Mr. Ng," Liam said after a minute of silence. "You take care of her." Jawn Ng understood his task and he got out of the car immediately. Liam transferred to the driver's seat and drove away.Jacyn was observing silently. She had no strength left to refute him. She let him do whatever he wanted to do. In the first place, he was the boss and she was his mere assistant. "Do you have something to say?" Liam asked her lazily, without looking at her. He just felt her burning stare at him. She just shook her head and looked away. She really couldn't understand him. What made him change his mind about the whole dining out? "Where are we going now?" She asked when she noticed that they were on a different route. She thought that they might go back to the Lee Corporation since it was still early."Home." He answered her, his eyes on the road. Jacyn was dumbfounded. The CEO was willing to waste time today and go back home early. Usually, he heads to the office early and goes back home so
The Forgotten CEO 42. Provoked.
Lady Yu'er glared secretly at Jacyn. She was obviously not happy that the latter had to tag along. But she had to act that it was okay as she flashed her sweetest smile.She put her hand on Liam's arm like she was telling the whole world that this man belongs to her. She confidently walked beside him. She believed that in this world, no one but only her, could match the powerful Liam Lee. Lady Yu'er is the only daughter of one of the richest men in the country. She was also successful in her own career. She was beautiful and had a model-like figure. Jacyn thought that Yu'er was funny. If only she had to choose, she wanted nothing from the two of them. She just wanted to take back the Lou Corporation. And she could only do that through the help of the great Liam Lee. That means she had to put up a smile as she followed him.When they reached the car, Liam opened the door and let Yu'er sit beside him. Jacyn occupied the seat beside the driver, Mr. Ng.Jacyn knitted her brows. Was the
