To Love My Boss Chapter Thirty-Nine: Do You Like Him?
Marissa’s POVThe beauty of the night was distracting me from focusing on his annoying face. The color of his corporate attire matched the silver moon above, illuminating where he was, like a spotlight. Even though I do not want it to look like it was me hallucinating, I cannot deny that everything around him makes him attractive, and yet he is the person I know who has the darkest, insensitive heart.“We don’t have anything to talk about,” I said coldly and started to walk, planning to avoid his direction and almost pass by him, but he only grabbed my hand to stop me. I glared hard at him so he would know that I did not like the situation here. “Can you let me go now? I said I have no time for you!”The more I protested, the more his hand tightened on my wrist. I could sense that he was beginning to be pissed. He was gritting his teeth, widening his eyes, and his face shaking. I know that expression. He will eventually rain many insults on me. It has been a thing he does to me and ot
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty: Make Up Plan
Marissa’s POV“I am m sorry,” he mumbled. “I cannot go back to when you and your suitor were arguing because of me. But let me make it up to you. I will do anything for you to forgive me.”“How? By giving me stupid flowers and gifts? Or offering me huge money in exchange for invalidating my feelings right now?” I sarcastically said while raising my eyebrow.“You think lowly of me,” he concluded. “I thought you know me, Marissa.”“Yes, I know you! You tend to blame others instead of taking accountability!” I said.“Then you are just only looking at my bad sides,” he said and smiled in pain which made me confused. “I guess I was wrong.”Awkward silence interfered with us, and it made me uncomfortable. I have said a lot of things and did not even once think of taking them back. He has to know what he did because I am so sick of understanding him.But why do I feel so guilty suddenly?“I know that what I did was bad, causing you to react like this. That is why I did something that could m
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-One: Marissa is Nervous
Marissa’s POVI opened the main door of my apartment and locked it when I was ready to leave. The gate was wide open, so I could see the Aston Martin Diego Montero owned beside him while he was waiting for me. I sighed before I started walking towards him.Again, I touched every part of my dress and felt my purpose, trying to breathe every minute. Okay, Marissa. You just have to be strong. Remember what Nica said? You have to just apologize to Brylle and explain your side. Do your best to make him understand. He will not have second thoughts just to forgive you. You can’t endure not forgiving someone you love. If the heart wants it, it will be able to do its best to get you back.I took a deep breath while still walking. Diego must have heard my heels, so he immediately turned his head to me. His lips parted as if he was amused, his gaze hovering over my entire appearance. It was awkward because it was as if I was displaying myself to impress him. Tss.“Hi,” he greeted with a ghost of
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-Two: Diego's Ex Crush
Marissa's POV“I see that Brylle likes you. Men nowadays cannot endure pursuing women that long. They tend to jump from one to another,” he shared. “Why?” I smirked. “Are you one of these stupid men?”I crossed my arms and comfortably leaned against the backrest of the passenger’s seat. I sighed.“That is why I do not trust men generally. I have a best friend whose name is Nica. I witnessed her cry with multiple men she dated and how they just left her like she was trash they could throw anytime. I mean, why do they say that to women who genuinely love them through best and worst times?”“Hey, so are you considering me one of them?” he asked.“Well, I do not. I did not hear anyone say that you fell in love with someone,” I said. "You seem like a lone wolf who does not find socializing interesting. So it only leads to a conclusion that dating is just not indispensable to you."He furrowed his eyebrows briefly, glanced at me meaningfully, and then shook his head. "That is where you are
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-Three: What About A Party?
Marissa’s POVMy heart and my mind were both cloudy as I stared through the car window. Questions haunted me as we left the restaurant, asking myself what just happened.What did Brylle mean that Nica is his girlfriend? And why did Nica stand up like she was even proud of it? What the hell happened?Brylle and Nica. They were both important to me. We have been together for so long. If my trust was placed in people, it would be them as my first choice. Even though they never got along together because Brylle acted as my suitor, while Nica served as my confidant, they were the ones I entrusted my care and devotion to all my life. I had no parents. No mass of friends. No relatives. No people see me as a dear person to me.An independent woman would only lean on people who truly care for her and would trade anything in the world just to display loyalty. In that way, she would also return the favor. Even everything that she has for them.My grandmother is currently hospitalized. My best fr
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
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-Five: Not Used to Compliment
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
To Love My Boss Chapter Forty-Six: Just Like the Two of Us
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
