To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-Four: Protect You
Marissa's POVHe turned on the GPS of his car and looked for an exclusive bar near our location. I could not wait to indulge myself in a random party where random people could join me in dancing. I can imagine being so foreign to new things, but I know I am adaptable. And I hope I will enjoy every bit of it. At last, we parked in the parking lot of the nearby bar and there were numerous sports cars, owned by obvious young adults and party people inside. I opened the door of the car and removed Diego's coat from my shoulders."Are you sure about this?" Diego asked as he got out of his car.I first threw his coat on his passenger's seat before regarding him. I closed the car door and nodded in enthusiasm."I am sure about this, Diego," I said and winked at him. "Let's go?"Before he could even refuse, I had already dragged his hand inside without hesitation. He told me to be casual towards him and be comfortable when we are together, so I do not think he would mind inviting him to the t

Marissa's POVI had already dragged Diego away from the entrance and we attacked the bar counter where we went through two groups of people who were drinking and partying. After the bartender gave the pile of cocktails to one group, he then regarded the two of us with a huge smile and enthusiastic eyes."Good evening! What can I do for both of you, ma'am and sir?" the bartender asked us."A bottle of tequila please!" I said and smiled at him."I got you, miss!" the bartender said and then turned his back to prepare for my order.As I sat on the stool, I felt a hand snaking around my waist. Shivers went through my spine as I looked at Diego who sat beside me on my stool as we waited. I was taken aback, but when I looked at him, he was just casually looking.Okay, Marissa. Just like what you said, everything between the two of you would be both casual and comfortable. So calm down.He stated that he is just protecting you from anything that would possibly transpire. Clubs are also one o

Marissa's POVThe disco lights made his eyes sparkle in the middle of a dim place. The music was loud, but its loudness did not disrupt how strong our connection was at this minute. And if I would be given a chance, I wish we could stay like this forever. Because in his eyes, I feel like I am in a haven.“So!” I enthusiastically spoke in the middle of our silence. “To fuck off the world, we will be dancing the night away. We will forget the people who hurt us. Cut off the people who betrayed us. And give our love to ourselves. Just the two of us, Diego.”“Hmmmm,” he hummed and shifted his weight just to face me completely. “I like that. Just the two of us. It could make a perfect movie title.”I laughed when he threw a silly joke like that I had to hit his shoulder. He was so shocked by what I did that he widened his eyes and barked out numerous guffaws. It made a lot of people look at us, but we barely cared.“We will have fun, okay?” I said. “And we will have the best night. Like ev

Marissa's POV Flashing memories went behind my mind. Brylle’s smile when he was introducing Nica in front of his family and relatives. My best friend was even smiling politely and greeting all of his visitors in the restaurant.And I was just there…Collapsing…Betrayed by the people whom I deeply cared for.But someone caught me…Diego Montero brought me to a place of fun and magically made me forget all of the painful memories of that moment I was betrayed. I could not thank him enough.And then, our faces went closer, our lips brushed each other, and began to kiss as our heat became one. His touch was warm and gentle. And his caress was comfortable.But suddenly, it became blurry. He began to vanish. That was when everything went dark suddenly. After a minute, a blinding light appeared in front of me and my eyes became conscious and discerning.Why is there so much light? White light?I slowly opened my heavy eyes as an odd light penetrated and moved my head. My eyebrows furrowed

Marissa's POVHe chuckled and then removed his hands from me. His fingers went through his hair and ruffled it as he sat up on the bed. I gulped because of how handsome he was even early in the morning.Why is God so unfair and all of the beauty of men was rained down on him?!"That's fine. I know that it was not your intention," he justified and smiled a little."Yes!" I answered immediately and I felt my cheeks heating up. "I am so sorry.""But still," he said and winked at me, "you kissed me."I sighed aggressively. "Yes, and I regret it,” she said.He shrugged. “But you have to admit,” he whispered under his breath. “You did like it.”I bit my lower lip and deeply felt the coldness of the aircon. His manly scent was filling my nostrils, and it was addicting. Slowly, he leaned over so that he could near to my face. I do not know why I am not retreating my head. I just let his head move, and when his lips almost landed mine, I covered my mouth with the back of my hand. He furrowed h

Marissa's POVI shook my head because I found myself spacing out after staring back at Diego from downstairs. Without any further ado, I proceeded to go down the long, wide staircase. I was petrified by the sounds my heels were making that were echoing inside the mansion.As I walked down, I was still amused by the mansion's beauty and elegance. It was giving off the old money, rich families where Diego belongs. I mean, it is already expected since he comes from a wealthy family and the country knows them in every aspect like businesses and high socio-economic status among others. They are well-respected and reputable as if they are some royalty.He went towards me with a huge grin. I still cannot forget when he decided to just let me go on my way and did not continue kissing me a while ago. He cannot just torture me like that!But well, I have to let it go. Maybe next time will do.Wait, what? How could I think of that? My cheeks flushed red and shook my head indulgently."Are you hu

Marissa's POVHe just smiled back and went to another chair that was only in front of me. I was still astonished by how he was slowly changing his attitude towards me. It is like it is a new Diego in front of me, and the arrogant one? He was already gone! No trace from him.I wish he was like this all the time. We could have a good relationship while doing our jobs. No pressure, like all those past years that have gone by as if there was a wall between us.I like what we have right now."Come on. You can eat now," he invited me and pointed his palm on the utensils in front of me. “I am so excited for you to eat them.”I looked at all of the breakfast dishes he had prepared for me, and my stomach growled in starvation. I grabbed one small fork and a dining knife to cut the pancake. When I tasted it with its sauce, it was like I tasted heaven for the first time, making me close my eyes and savor the taste.Tender. Soft. Not sweet but tasty. It even has a good smell!"It's very delicious

Marissa's POV"Marissa!"I only shook my head in dismay as I went outside the mansion. Diego kept calling my name, but I did not budge. I was so disappointed by what he said to his mother.Like what? I am pregnant with a child? He did not even consult me to say that before he said it to his mom!Sometimes, he is fun to be with, but he is also so unpredictable that I don't even know how to react the next time I know it. He could have just fuck himself, then. For now, I am so pissed off by what he did.Did he even see the face of Madame Margarita Montero inside? Her face was not even pleased for a bit. He was the only one who felt like it was time for celebration!Ugh!”Hey, I'm sorry..." he said and managed to pull my hand before I could even arrive at their gigantic gate. "Marissa, will you please talk to me first?"I faced him just like what he wanted. I made sure that the daggers from my glares would surely give him deadly warnings."Why would you even tell your mother that I am pre

To Love My Boss Chapter One-Hundred-Two: He Is Your Dad
MARISSA’S POV“Are you really sure about talking to him?” Brylle asked as he hid my view of Diego who was sitting on the couch in the living room.I sighed while I was crossing my arms. “He wanted to see and know about our daughter,” I said. “What should I do? Deny? He already knew before he could even reach here.”“But you vowed to yourself that you will never see him,” he said firmly and furrowed his eyebrows. “Don’t tell me that you still have feelings for him, Marissa.”I remembered how Diego kissed me a while ago, and I felt so guilty in front of Brylle. Ever since I left the Philippines, he was the one who comforted me together with Nica. They were both supportive of Lilith and I. So I know that he is just worried about me seeing Diego.I could not help but avoid my gaze. I saw from my peripheral vision that he nodded, as if he just confirmed something.“You still love him,” he reckoned.“I have been prepared for making Lilith meet her father,” I stated, meeting his gaze again.
To Love My Boss Chapter One-Hundred-One: We Were Just Nothing
I felt my heart drop when I saw Diego Montero entering the backyard with Lilith holding his hand and pulling him to her friends. Diego’s expression was mixed with confusion and surprise. The guests barely cared, because in their minds, Diego must just be a guest. “What is he doing here, Marissa?” Nica asked as I followed her going outside the house. “Do you think I know?” I exclaimed and muttered a crisp curse. “So why is he holding Lilith?” “I don’t know!” Nica and I kept exchanging frustrated mumbles because we have no idea why Diego was here. How did he even know my address? “Sir, you can get a slice of cake at the buffet table,” Lilith even said and pointed at the table with her head looking up to Diego. I was taken aback that I could not help and snatch her hand away when I got to the both of them. Diego parted his lips as he looked at me, his eyes digging into mine and searching answers from the questions he must be having in his mind. Out of urge, I held Lilith and moved
To Love My Boss Chapter One-Hundred: Like Mother, Like Daughter
MARISSA’S POV“We have nothing to talk about,” I firmly said and dropped his hand. “Why don’t you go home to your family now, huh?”Before he could see the tears stinging at the sides of my eyes, I turned my back on him and went straight to my car with my heart beating fast and my mind so cloudy with memories. When I got inside my car and looked in front of me, his car was already running towards the exit, leaving me in the indoor parking lot of the company.I wanted to break down and hold my chest while mentally saying that everything would be alright. Whatever the reason he is here is solely none of my business. Whether he has a family or not, I don’t need him in my daughter’s life.But wait a minute, how did he know that we had a daughter? And did Madame Margarita Montero tell him about what we both agreed on in order for me to leave Diego?Nonetheless, what is done is done. I can’t go back to the past anymore. I have a life here in New York with my daughter. I may not be happy jus
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Nine: You don’t get to leave me
MARISSA’S POV I only snapped when Mrs. Rivera called me. I regarded her who was eyeing me up and down, weirded out by why I was wet. Even Diego was also coldly staring at me, couldn't care less that I was in front of him. He did not even flinch, as if he had already expected that I am here. In New York! “I… I’ll just change, madame. I’m sorry. Excuse me…” I did not waste time and immediately turned my back in order to escape from that stupid embarrassment. My little run with my high heels was awkward as I made my way to the washroom. I gave a message to Ms. Desmon to find me a pair of clothes from my locker and fix myself. “Shit, what was he doing here?!” I said in panic as I paced back and forth inside the cubicle. “He can’t be here. I mean, he can, but for all the places on Earth, why here?!” And he has a wife. And a child. It’s just five years, and he has already moved on? Or am I the only one who distinguished five years to be a shorter time? “Ma’am, here are your clothes.”
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Eight: Fantasizing
“Are you okay, ma’am? You seemed stressed. Do you want me to get you some coffee?” an assistant of mine asked me when she noticed me staring at the wall of my office.“Huh? Oh!” I exclaimed and almost panicked, but I stopped myself and just grabbed the paperwork in front of me. “Don’t mind me. Just please get to work.”Shit. I did not like the idea of not focusing on my work enough and being distracted by what had happened last night with Madame Zeana. Everything she said seemed so absurd to me and impossible.How could she be my mother? She lives in the US, and I lived with my grandmother in the Philippines. I had a simple and convenient life as an assistant, while she is the most luxurious woman who people have known, bringing success from her business and showbiz. Now I could not imagine her kneeling yesterday in front of me, just so I could forgive her.I clenched my fist, crumbling the paper inside my hand.“Ma’am, you are destroying the contract…”“Oh, shit…” I cussed and looked
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Seven: You are… my mother?
Marissa’s POV“I don’t understand why you are here,” the first thing I said to Madame Zen who was in front of me. “I don’t even have an idea how you tracked me.”The nanny of my son placed the two cups of tea on the dining table. I am currently sitting in the capital opposite to Madame Zen. She was wearing a fancy cardigan and above the knee leather skirt. Her Louis Vuitton mini bag was even boasting itself that she put on the corner of the dining table. Her sparkling success was very shiny that I had to clear my throat and mind who I was talking to.Madame Zen stared at me for a while before the corners of her lips rose a little. “I have tracked you down ever since you came here in New York. The last minute that I could not see you in the Philippines, I got worried, so I hired a private investigator just to find you.”I was so overwhelmed by what she spilled that I laughed in amusement and sipped on my tea. My head was shaking in disbelief because I thought she was just throwing a jo
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Six: Stalker
Marissa's POV For five years, I only wanted to take care of Lilith, my daughter, as we left the Philippines to start a new life and a new career. After my grandmother died last year, I knew that I had to be strong for the steering wheel that I had been controlling all my life to be steady. Grandma was the reason I wanted to live for a long time. Now, it was Lilith. "Mom, I told you that I wanted to play in the park with my nanny. Why would you not let me?" Lilith said as she stomped her little feet under the dining table. I turned to her while fixing the valuable things inside my bag. Her nanny, on the other hand, was helping her eat breakfast. My beautiful daughter was looking up at me while pouting her lips. Her hair was already done into ponytails and is currently wearing the dress I just bought for her in the mall. "No," I said and smiled at her. "The park is too dangerous, my love. You have to understand me." "Nanny! Help me!" she said and then looked at Nanny Elisa. Nanny
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Five: Luggage
Marissa’s POV I could feel the discrete and watchful stares of Nica and Brylle in front of me. I was just staring at the hot coffee inside a huge mug in front of me. They made sure I ate today, even though it was not a lot. It already satisfied them that I had something in my stomach. “I know you won’t open up to us,” Nica said in the middle of the deafening silence. “But I want you to know that Brylle and I will be here for you.” My eyes slowly darted on both of them. They were beside each other and their hands underneath were obviously intertwined just by the visual of their hands together. The only thing that was separating us was the dining table. Currently, we are in the dining area in front of me. The night was still young. “I am leaving tomorrow,” I started with a lump on my throat, but my eyes are already tired from crying. “And I don’t know if I will be back.” “What?” Brylle exclaimed. “What do you mean?” “Madame Margarita was the primary reason why my contract with Di
To Love My Boss Chapter Ninety-Four: Leave Tomorrow
Marissa’s POV“Brylle! Oh, my goodness! What happened to you?!” Nica exclaimed in shock.The moment I let her inside the apartment, Nica rushed to Brylle who was caressing the white plaster on his right cheek. She was pressing his wound, while he kept telling her that it was alright. I could not help but furrow my eyebrows at how they care for each other. I can see it. “Marissa,” Nica mumbled my name and stood up so he could face me. “Who did this to him?”I crossed my arms after I locked the door of the living room. “It was Diego Montero,” I answered. “I am sorry.”Her expression changed from a serious one to a concerned one. The moment she did that, I already retreated. I shook my head.“We can talk tomorrow. For now, you should rest together with Brylle. Spend the night. I already prepared everything in my grandmother’s room. You can use it,” I said. “I’ll go to my room now.”I did not let her speak anymore and turned my back on them already. I could feel her stares following me
