All Chapters of Adored by the CEO: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

HazelThe urge to slap Layla across the face grew in me. I was in nothing but a skimpy nightgown from last night. I was too lazy to change out of them even after showering. When Layla came over last night, I thought she'd give a helping hand. But instead Damon’s topic was the only thing she was interested in. If not she came because of him. There's nothing closeby to use to cover my body when Damon footsteps emerges from the door. Our gaze straight on each other. The beating rate of my hearts isn't at it normal peak. I felt it. I felt the heat radiating off my body as he squinted his eyes on me. I hugged the decor pillow as a means of covering my body away my revealing body. “Please have a seat” Layla offered. That was when I noticed he didn't come alone. The same guy from his office. “Hello Miss Hazel, hope you're getting better” The guy said flashing me a smile. My eyes slightly shifted to Damon who's eyes were already on me. I don't know why he's staring at me. Do I look weird i

HazelIt still baffles me how Damon was hell bent on coming over for dinner. I literally find it weird. He has never tasted my food before and yet he wants to be coming for good five days. I might as well poison him on the accord. To get my revenge for all that he has done to me. The troubles and the pain in the ass. To be honest, I don't know what has gotten into when I told him I don't like it when he's giving me a cold shoulder. And it's true. These days, I found myself getting attached to him with each passing day we've spent together. There's this certain feeling at the pit of my stomach that I feel like it's too early to express it. After all, we’re still on the stage of getting to know each other. I've been keeping an eye on the wall clock waiting for the particular time to start cooking dinner. I don't even have anything on mind. I decided to search through some recipes online. A simple and moderate time food to cook. I felt relieved on my legs after the morning jogging. Oka

DamonFrom the very first beginning, I know It wasn't a good choice going to Hazel’s house at night. I don't know what has gotten into me. I can stop after the kiss, but something pulled me in. God, just thinking about how my body reacted to her. It made me feel things I've never felt before in a while. Not with Nicole or any other woman. Why the hell did I do that? It wasn't part of the plan. Am I really working with the plan? My inner mind reminded me. I don't know. I'm confused as hell. What do I feel for Hazel? Why am I doing things that are not part of what I initiated to do. My mind was clouded with the thought as I made my way to the office. The best thing I will do is act normally with her. I should focus on my plan rather than doing the other way round. I was met with Mr. Kane who was holding a pile of papers. I have forgotten we’re having meeting. I haven't really gotten time to mentally prepare myself. My thought were all clouded with Hazel. And I hate feeling that way. S

HazelLayla helped me and compose the message to Mr. Kane. I asked her to send to him on purpose. I don't want anything to do with him. As much as he doesn't want to associate himself with me. I think ny actions should be justify. After taking some pain killers, I felt much better. I was on for a second round sleep when my phone chimed with message. I forgot to switched off my data. I was swamped with messages from my girls all wishing me quick recovery. They're talking as if I'm sick. The cramps normally drag me down for a day or two and I will be back to normal. There were no more messages apart from theirs. Somehow, some part of me had a slight of hope that I will get a message from him. I know by then Mr. Kane has already notified him of the situation. I dropped the phone with a sigh and pull the duvet over my face. The aroma of food beat through my nostrils as I made my way out of Layla’s room towards the sitting room. My stomach instantly made a sound in hunger. The sleep and

HazelThis time around, I kept a normal face as I made my way to the office. I can't get too excited like last time. Damon might give me the same treatment. But then, after what happened last night, I had the hope that things are getting better. It's not like he admit that he has feelings for me but the stage we are currently at, is mutual. I sigh in disappointment when I found the front door locked. Which means he's yet to arrive at the office. The urge to call him grew in me. I held it in knowing It will make me look like someone begging for attention. I was still on that thought when my phone rang from my bag. I found myself letting out a smile. I allow the phone to ring for some time before slidding the accept button. "I see you're thinking about me Miss Dalen" Was the first thing that came out of his lips. I rolled my eyes at his statement dropping my bag on my desk. Even after allowing the phone to ring for sometime. "I don't have time for that. Last time I checked I didn't ca
