All Chapters of HIDDEN SECRETS: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Hey" Charles greets, wrapping his arms around my waist from behind. A grin makes its way on my face immediately and I turn around to face him.He pecks me before I'm able to say anything else. The action takes me completely off guard and I inhale a sharp breath."Charles, we're in public" I scold. The ball was held today. The ball where he'll be introduced as the new CEO. I asked him if they hold balls for everything, and he answered "if it's necessary"."And who said I can't show love to my fiancée whether or not we're in public" he smirks before kissing me again, only this time, he prolongs it.The clearing of a throat pulls us apart, but Charles keeps his hold on me."Although I'm in a relationship, you guys make me feel single" Benjamin comments and I chuckle"Eliiiiizzaaabbbeeettthhhh.... heelllllooo" a female voice says out of nowhere, pulling me into a hug."Umm... hi" I c

"So when are the babies coming?" Veronica asks, snapping at her nails. My eyes turn as wide as saucers, and I burst out laughing. "What babies?" "The babies you and Charles are going to make" she looks at me like 'did you seriously just ask me that?' "Sorry to burst your bubble but there are no babies" I say with a laugh. I glance around at the reception, how well everyone is enjoying themselves. I see Diane and Benjamin bickering, again. Ever since they met earlier today, they haven't gotten along. The first argument was about which team was better, Liverpool or Manchester United. Which to me was so off topic. I mean you just met, talk about what you do or something. Football, really? When did Diane even become a football fan? "Okay, tell me, you guys kissed today at the wedding, and that kiss was too deep and intense to be a first kiss... have you guys kissed before and you haven't told me?" She asks and oh oh

Sex means different things to different people. For me, I was anxious and somewhat, scared. The flashbacks of what went on between Charles and I comes into my mind every time I think about it. It causes me to blush and feel deeply shy for no reason. It sounds unbelievable, but during the eight years that Ryan and I were together, we never had sex. We never got that far. I was never interested in getting that far. And he knows it. I didn't want to have sex before marriage, and I made that very clear. So after a few failed attempts of trying to coerce me into sleeping with him, he gave up. Knowing my mind was set, it was not going to happen. And yes, it has occurred to before. A lot of times actually, that it may just have been the reason why he slept with Eva, because he probably didn't get from me what he wanted. But each and everyday, I'm glad of the decision I made. Charles was astonished, that I hadn't slept with anyone. That at twenty five, I

"Baby, you know that software company that wants to sign up with Frost Capital?" I ask, mixing lettuce and cabbage with carrots together, making vegetables for dinner."Yes... my assistant gave me the files today. I'll check it through and go for the meeting tomorrow""You could allow me to attend the meeting for you. I'd love to." I say, leaving the vegetables and walking to him."You work too much anyway" I peck his lips, wrapping my arms around his neck from where he is seated on the kitchen chair "Besides, I'm bored and I want to know what you do, it'll also let me out of the house don't you think?" I peck him again, trying to coerce him to allow me"Can you?"I climb up onto his lap and straddle him, "Are you questioning my abilities?" I ask with an eyebrow raised"No my love. I just don't want to bother you. This house is very huge, but you manage to keep it in check, you don't even want me to bring

Being at home is amazing. It feels relaxing. I get to gather my thoughts, being an introvert as well, it is exciting since I get to recharge my batteries after being around so many people. My introvert self needs to stay away from everyone once in a while and just have some alone time. Sometimes I don't know if it's only me, but it's the way I feel. Up until today, Veronica thinks it's an absurd thing. The only thing I miss is the hospital, taking care of patients and noticing the looks of relief that take place on their faces when you inform them that there's nothing wrong and that they're alright. Aside that reassuring the others who unfortunately aren't so lucky that everything is going to be fine. I miss my job. I miss my office.I place the popcorn I took out of the microwave minutes ago on the centre table in the middle of the movie room, and turn on Dynasty on Netflix. I totally love that series. Fallon Carrington alone is a mood. I turn on the blue lights that h
