All Chapters of The CEO's Love: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

 Amanda kissing him was the last thing Lucas expected. But he didn’t waste a lot of time being surprised. His lips moved against hers, his hands going around her waist. She wrapped hers around his neck and pressed her body into his, closing every little distance between them. The kiss was short but intense. She pulled back first, keeping her hands around his neck. Her brown eyes sought his. “This is not a good idea for me, Lucas. Right now, I really want you. But I don’t know what I’ll think about it tomorrow.” He more than understood. She wanted him in the same way he wanted her. It just wasn’t as easy for her. And he wasn’t going to make things harder. “That’s fine. You’ll know when tomorrow comes. I’ll respect whatever you decide.” He sure as hell hoped she wouldn’t push him away. But since this was just s

 The video clip Cara sent Amanda had footage of Samuel and Nancy together, a day before Amanda cancelled their engagement. It was late at night and they were in the break room at work. The video was a mix of them making out and talking about how the wedding day was getting close and they would finally have their hands on the Lemaiyans' wealth. Cara had stayed late that night too and came across them. They never found out that she took a video. All they knew was that she saw them and ratted them out to Amanda. A few minutes after Amanda posted the clip online in reply to Nancy's tweet, her office phone rang. Her father was on the other side. “See me now, Amanda! Right now!” His voice was stern, and it was obvious he was pissed off. She could deal with an angry father. As long as she had finally put those two in their proper place, she could deal with any

When Lucas got to his boat, Amanda was sitting outside the door, leaning against it. To his relief, her driver was with her.  “I’m sorry sir, I couldn’t get her to leave,” he apologised as Lucas came forward and unlocked his door. “It’s okay,” he assured him, bending to scoop the half-asleep woman in his arms. “Thanks for watching over her. You can leave now.” With Tom gone, he went into the boat and headed straight for the main cabin. He placed Amanda on the bed, then moved to remove her shoes. “Why are you so drunk?” he asked, casting a glance at her flushed face. She moaned and turned to her side, her eyes opening to gaze at him. Having removed her shoes, he sat down on the bed beside her. He peered down at her. “What happened?” The last time he saw her, she had successfully

 Amanda remained at the front of the elevator for a few seconds, taking in the scene in front of her.  Samuel was what you’d call tall, dark, and handsome. He sure had an appeal to him, and that’s one reason Amanda had fallen for his charms in the first place. But now, looking at him, none of the warmth that filled her chest whenever she saw him when they were dating showed up. Instead, everything inside froze up, and she wanted him gone in an instant.  “How did you get up here?” she demanded, resuming her walk.  “You didn’t change the code.”  Damn, right. She had never thought of that because she had never expected him to show up at her place.  

Five Months Later   “Damn, Amanda. Are you trying to kill me?” “I’m standing here, enjoying my glass of wine in peace. Don’t you dare accuse me of attempted murder, Mr. Erikson.” Lucas groaned and stepped closer, bringing up his hand to rest on the small of her back. They were standing at the bar, which was mostly deserted as most of the wedding guests joined the dance floor. The occasion was his elder sister’s wedding. “Do you know how many times I’ve had to mentally fight down an erection because I couldn’t stop imagining tearing this dress off you and fúcking you on the nearest surface?” She pressed her wine glass to her bottom lip and gazed up at him. “Now, that’s just naughty, Mr. Erikson.” “Naughtier than you letting me know you ha
