Coming to the Rescue, Knight Ricky?
The signature smell of antiseptics and drugs infiltrated through the entire hospital, welcoming the two CEO's even before the receptionist officially welcomed them. Or rather, decided to turn the supposed welcome into a meet and greet where she expressed her excitement to have finally met Ricky whom she had often admired for three whole minutes.
Well, Jade hadn't let the fiery red-haired succeed in making it into a meet and greet, but had quickly pulled out her ID card, briskly requesting for Esmeralda's room number. Perhaps if circumstances had been less serious, she would have played the jealous girlfriend card and sent the opportunist running using a single attitude. But her entire mind and heart were focused on her daughter, and she prayed again that her condition wouldn't be serious.
When the receptionist grudgingly turned the laptop to their direction, handing the light pen over to them to sign the visitors' form and have their identities checked

When the Bosses Meet Her Knight
Ricky stiffened, not out of fear of the anger in her voice, but in shock, and fear for her. He had been aware that there was some feud between her and her father, owing to her overtaking him as CEO after gathering shares behind his back and taking him unawares. But he had never imagined that it ran this deep, nor was he able to immediately decipher what she meant, because what was the connection between her father and Esmeralda lying in a hospital bed.... Unless... He didn't want to explore that dark thought that led him into thinking of the possibility that her father was the reason that Esmeralda was in that condition. No; it couldn't be. He was conversant with assholish parents, his parents' marriage being one of the models he'd had that had led into being a non-advocator for marriages. But no fucking asshole would be disgusting enough to do that to a child, let alone their own grandchild. Recovering himself, he looked dow
When the Bosses Meet Worry is Underrated
The second time that Ricky was sent to a voicemail, the urge to smash his phone against the wall filled his mind, and paying no heed to the security officers by the doors and hallway who kept looking at him, obviously wondering who this strange-acting person was, Ricky cursed again, raking his fingers through his hair in frustration. Relying solely on hope, he dialed again, his heart pounding at an alarming rate, his fingers shaking uncontrollably as he kept pressing his phone. "Damn it Jade! Pick the goddamn call!" Ricky cursed, wishing she could somehow hear him and pick her call. He needed like a drug to confirm that she was alright, because he was going the hell out of his mind with worry, and again felt so powerless for not knowing what to do about it. He dialed Annabelle's line, making no attempt to hide his emotions the moment she picked up on the first ring. "Ms. Annabelle, try con
When the Bosses Meet Beyond Want
"What the fuck do you mean by a dead end? I don't pay you to return to me with such bullshit story! Fucking find her or You're fired." It was 9:30 p.m., four hours after Jade's disappearance and he had got no lead from his private investigator. Annabelle had been unsuccessful on her end as well; Jade hadn't dropped by, and every attempt to call her had been directed to a voicemail. Ricky raked his fingers through his already disheveled hair, his fingers shaking as he poured red wine into a glass. He took it down his throat in one gulp, his eyes bloodshot as he stared into space. The rain was still pouring as though the skies and the earth were quarrelling, and he felt as though he were crippled; unable to do anything other than rely on a huge private investigation firm that couldn't even do as much as find one woman. Although Jade was qui
When the Bosses Meet Beyond Need
Ricky said nothing, his lips parted, his brain rendered into nothingness. Jade misread his reaction, because she quickly added, her voice dropping. "Unless you don't want me." Ricky gripped hold of her jaw, drowning in the brownness of her eyes. He thought of proving himself with his words, but deciding that action always did it better, he leant forward and captured her bottom lip in between his teeth, biting it gently, his eyes never leaving hers. And in his eyes were desire; raw and passionate lust. "You must give me lots of credit if you think I have as much as a thread of restraint around you." He spoke against her lips, his palm cupping and gripping her arm possessively, the sudden action making her gasp involuntarily. "Then...why not?" Even as she asked the question, she was gritting her teeth, shivering from the cold.
When the Bosses Meet Climbing the Height
Ricky climbed the bed, crawling on all fours as he moved seductively towards her. His eyes were focused on her body, every other thing completely ceasing to exist at that point. Her tanned skin still glistening from the shower, he let his palms run through her body, gathering the fast drying wetness of the water. With his eyes staring into hers, laying bare every emotion of his, he pushed the wet finger into her womanhood, watching her break eye contact to throw her head backwards. He dipped his fingers into her slit opening of her beautiful flower, rubbing his them slowly on the surface. She whimpered, tightening her legs around him in a bid to increase the friction. Ricky's chest heaved up and down, his arousal which had sprung proud and regal from the slacks so hard it ached. But there was no lack of satisfaction whatsoever to be felt. He already had his mental desire fulfilled in watching her nipple
When the Bosses Meet Sealing Some Unofficial Deals
The novelty experience of waking up in the arms of the only woman he wanted to be with pushed Ricky's lips into a smile the next morning. He held tightly to the feminine body beside him, listening to her soft breaths, not wanting to open his eyes yet. He had joined her in eating the lasagna he had heated up the night before, having worked up a serious appetite. It was even then that he came to the realisation that he hadn't eaten anything but had kept donning glass after glass of wine, worried about her. It was awkward at first, before he felt as though he had been laid bare with all the emotions she evoked in him. But it had all but taken one joke from her and they had been back to being free with each other. He hadn't been satiated after the meal; there had been another hunger in him that demanded to be tended to. And so he had cleared the table with a sweep of his palm, pushing down plates and laying her on the
When the Bosses Meet Mr. Boyfriend is Possessive?
"Are those hickeys, Ms. CEO?" Annabelle had her both hands folded together over her chest, her brows arched as though she were conducting an interview. "Is this an interrogation, Ms. P.A.?" Jade returned the question, going over the documents piled on her desk although rather absentmindedly. Despite all that she had done with Ricky, all she had been able to think of throughout the day was the feeling of his flesh against hers, his sensual lips whispering words in her ears over and over again as he had pounded into her... "Oh yes it is. And I believe I have earned the right to ask questions based on how I was abandoned for Mr. Hot and Perfect last night. I mean, did you ever think of calling me to inform me that you were safe? Left me in that empty apartment of yours going batshit crazy for hours." Jade pushed her chair closer to the office desk, linking her fingers together on the table. "Anna, I've been apologisin
When the Bosses Meet Provocative Ms. Raymonds
Ricky punched the security code and swiped the keycard to the private lift that led to his Penthouse, apprehension filling his mind as he rode the lift, wondering if it usually took this long before. He hadn't been able to concentrate on anything throughout the day at the office, tempted severally to pick up his phone and dial the woman who occupied his every thought. Not even Ginger's briefing regarding the PR team's progress towards ensuring that the NDA switch wouldn't affect any party was enough to pull his mind away from the thought of Jade's delectable presence. And as though his torture wasn't enough already, she had texted him as noon was drawing close, saying that she had a surprise for him. And damn if be hadn't rushed the meeting he had with his board members, waving off their attempts to make him feel welcome after a long stay in Dubai. The only
