All Chapters of Fooling the CEO: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

I know this is not easy but I never thought it would be this hard. Damn. I knew it. I fucking knew it! I feel like I’m slapped by cold ice. It’s shameful. He knows. He knows what I’m trying to do but he didn’t make it clear. For sure he doesn’t know the purpose of it all. He just knew that I’m trying to hold him on the neck so I can do whatever that I want, right? Or does he know all along? I palmed my face while I’m at my room.  Now I’m torn. The child-like attitude didn’t take effect. The bitchy attitude isn’t effective as well. The sweet and submissive attitude is something I can’t stomach, not to say that he’s sometimes acting like a sulky boyfriend. Now what should I do? ”He knows now.” I whispered to myself while seeking every cell of my brain to think of plan B’s and C’s or even until Z’s. Should I just pretend that I like

I didn’t have a choice but to bring him with me, or else he’ll be suspicious of me again. It’s almost like watching a sitcom. Entering Lulu’s library, I saw how her eyes widened like an owl and her jaw dropping. If I didn’t call her name, she would have embarrassed herself. I introduced them to each other and I would not explain how awkward that is for me and Lulu.Now, we’re seated on the same table while Elijah is scanning some book on the aisle. We couldn’t even speak to each other because Lulu is eyeing Elijah from time to time. ”Lulu, stop gawking. He might notice you.” I hissed at her. She glared at me. “No shit. Why the hell did you bring him here?” I sighed. “Don’t ask me. As if I want him here as well.” I whispered and pretended to read the book I’m holding. ”What is he? Some sort of body guard?” I didn&

I thought it’s really impossible. I made it. I got through almost all of the exams that I did.  I failed in some minor examinations but the university took it into consideration. Fortunately, I passed as a senior high school student. It’s more than I expected to achieve. But I can’t also imagine if I’m gonna go to school with kids. Elijah is their contact all along. So I don’t know if Elijah’s trying to use his power or if I was just lucky. But as far I know, I really passed those exams. I’m quite confident. After all, reading books has  been my saving grace while I’m locked up in the house for my whole life. No wonder that even though I'm uneducated, I still get to know a lot of things because of the books that I owned and the books in Lulu’s library. Things happened like a flash. The last time I checked I’m still at Elijah’s penthouse, dozing off. Or I’m in the library with Lu

I became so cold to him after that. Of course he tried reaching out, but I had no time for his shits. Adding the fact that I’m busy with school helps me to get away from him. Starting that day I didn’t dare to wait for him for dinner. In the morning, I purposely wake up early or wake up late just so we will not have any encounters.But not today. I woke up late but when I got out to prepare, I saw him in the living room casually standing there busy on his phone, wearing casual clothes and not his usual formal attire. He immediately hid his phone when he saw me.I saw him scan me from head to toe. I was already in my uniform and I’m about to eat my breakfast. Uh-oh, I guess I’ll just eat at school.I stared at him with blank eyes. The hint of nervousness and attentiveness is embedded in his eyes.”Breakfast is ready.” he said with a crooked smile.”I need to go. I’m late.” I said even though that’s not my original plan. And I’m not even late.

“So you’re telling me that he initiated that sexual tension for the first time?” Lulu curiously asked me, confirming what I just told her.Since it’s Saturday, I went to the library and helped her fix  and dust some books. Because later, I’ll be going to Zoey’s house to finish our project.”Yes, I think so.” I answered Lulu.”And you both made up just the next morning?””No, days after.” I spat bitterly. “I don’t even know if that’s called made up. I didn’t agree to anything. He just wants to get everything in his own way.”She didn’t answer me, so I looked to her only to find out that she’s smiling ridiculously. I raised a brow at her.”What?”She chuckled and shook her head. “You know from the very start, based on your stories… Mr. Anderson seems to be a good man.
